Hi can i pretty please join you? I need a big kick up the backside and hopefully this is the motivation I need.

Bit of background, been overweight ALL my life, well ok not all but ykwim, tried lots of diets time and time again but the weight as usual just goes back on. The best I achieved was nearly 4 stone in 2009 by following the celebrity slim diet but I couldn't continue because of a) the cost and b) the limitations, i need a healthy living plan that is going to help me lose weight long term.

Fell pregnant in 2010 and the weight loss started again (all day sickness , it was the same when I was pregnant with DD, the best diet ever !!) Had the wee man and was doing ok (b/feeding ) but the weight is coming back on big time. After I had dd I threw the weight on and was at my heaviest ever but I ended up seriously depressed so don't want that to happen again.

Anyway took the plunge and weighed myself this morning and got a huge shock so enough is enough, I need to get a grip, and hopefully you lovely people will help me along the way I am planning on following Scottish slimmers as i have done this before and find it the easiest.

Thank you x

Good to see you Teenie D and welcome aboard (oh an congrats on the recent arrival!)

Weighed in this morning ....

3LB OFF!!!

That's great for me, as I've been stuck on the same weight for what feels like years, and the only thing I did different was dig the wii fit out twice

Well a pound off for me but I can't seem to break through this stone barrier! I keep getting to 22 stone then a few pounds on then back down and up and down and up and down and ..... well you all get the picture :rotfl:

Okay so I HAVE lost 25 pounds :j but just one more at the moment would have me in a smaller stone section

Congrats on the little un!!

I was the same when I was pregnant, in fact a week after giving birth to no DS2, I weighed less than ever - and significantly less than now

LOL and me, as soon as I had him everyone was saying how good I looked as my stomach started going .....but it very soon came back. I have just gotten really lazy and don't do any form of exercise which isn't helping

ETA: Congratulations Dragon!!!

just the 1lb off for me this week

i was very good indeed, and had hoped for 2.5 off, but one did take me past the 2.5 stone mark, (2 stone 7.5lb) in just 13 weeks, so i am delighted about that :j
