Except for one friend who knows I am still keeping it quiet, I wonder how much I will lose before anyone notices... I am guessing 3 stones when you are very fat no-one really looks at you!
That's excellent tootallulah! and as you say, you've not had to sacrifice meals out etc.
I know what you mean about no one noticing, especially if you see those people most days and carry on wearing the same clothes for a while. However, I haven't seen my son since I started this 'journey' and he did comment that 'I looked a bit thinner'.
Was talking about it with someone in work and they said that if I were able to lose half a stone a month - a year from now, that would have made a massive difference. I'm just so impatient though!Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame

Well I think that we are all impatient, that is natural. I reckon it has taken 20 years to get this fat so a year to get rid is not so bad. If you can make it so it doesn't feel so very restricting then perhaps it wont feel so bad.

I wouldn't mind losing 100Ibs this year! I started 1st Jan with Slimming World. Walk for around an hour a day and 3x week gym with a PT . . considering Bikram yoga and will start swimming 2x week from next week
27.5Ibs down so far since 1st, 30Ibs down total since end Dec0 -
Hello UKTigerLily - you are doing brilliantly, I am really impressed by the gym. If you carry on barn storming you will be there in no time.0

You can make search for health facilities in you niche. You can use hospitals, clinics, health center etc for making searches over the internet. I am sure you will get good results for it. You can also make searches regarding doctors, treatments, medicines etc for this purpose.0

Weigh in tonight and by some miracle - I've lost 5lbs this week!!
No idea how that happened, I haven't done anything different, I didn't think. Really chuffed though, as I've hit my 5% now.Over futile odds
And laughed at by the gods
And now the final frame

How absolutely brilliant 5lbs! That has really cheered me up. 5% CwR you are on the slippery slope downwards. I do sometimes think it takes a couple of weeks for the weightloss to work through.0

Hit a Ali t have a great week end away we hope to see you back next week.
I made the great mistake this morning of buying weight watchers food because it was in Poundland. Memo to self ww food is low in points because: it is full of chemicals, It is a bag of crisps with five crisps in it, it contains artificial sweetener. However the wheaten crackers are Ok and only cost80p in Waitrose, ha, ha, ha. I do actually know it is almost always best to just make your own food.0
