    Well done kittycat!:T

    I've lost a bit too, now it's 1.8lb lost out of 5lbs:j
  • Sorry I have been a bit lax and not visited this thread for a while.

    Thanks everybody for your support.

    QQ you are doing brilliantly as well, sometimes it is harder to lose a small amount than a lot. Keep plugging away at it :D
  • Ok, confession time, I now have 11.75lbs to lose until my first target. :o

    Yes I have managed to put ON weight, which is why I've been MIA for a few days. :o

    Anyway, fresh start today! :)

    Not recorded this as a gain in the OP - I've adjusted your target instead ;) Importantly, you came back!

    I have my WW weigh in tonight. Hopefuly last night's Zumba session will have helped somewhat

    Ooo, good luck with weigh-in! :T

    Still got Zumba on the Wii to try out. :)
  • With the wii zumba, I find the belt a little irritating - you're meant to keep the wii-mote on your hip, but I find that the belt has a tendancy to 'spin' as you're moving. Next time I'll probably wear trackie bottoms and stick the controller in my pocket!

    Hi there - can I join too?
    I had a baby a year ago and am desperate to lose weight before I get pregnant again. My BMI is a shocking 35.5 and health wise I need to lose about 40kg to be a "normal" weight - so it's going to be a long journey...

    I've been doing a low carb diet for 8 weeks now and have lost 5kg but the weight loss has slowed right down. I'm thinking I'm going to have start exercising to kick start things.

    5kg loss is amazing:T
    Welcome Betty:wave:
  • :wave: Hello and welcome! I've added you to the front page. Could you just confirm that your target to 40kg is from your current weight, not your start weight?

    You've already made big inroads to your weightloss, so well done there :T
