    Oo, can I join please :j

    I joined Slimming World in June and have been adding £1 per 1lb since then. I have a laminated card on the fridge I keep updating with my progress. It has holiday fund written on it and some little pics. I'm not going to spend the money until I get 3 stone off :D I get weighed on a Thursday and have £120 as of yesterday.
    Love MSE, Las Vegas and chocolate!

    Thats good to know! I have booked the Blacksmiths cottage, our two girls will be bridesmaid and my mum and dad are coming as well. My mum is paying for a horse and carridge and the hotel so that will help!!. Went to Monsoon yesterday and got my dress for £90 in the sale. My mum commented that I cannot put any weight on.....I want to loose it!! Not had a very good day though but am going for a run tonight so that should help.
