Lose Weight 17

Welcome to the place where we encourage you not to save £'s but to lose Lb's instead :D

So you wanna lose weight? You've come to the right place! :D

Pull up a chair and join in the chat, whatever plan you're following to lose weight, be it SW, WW, RC, or just plain old reducing what you eat and increasing the exercise, there'll be someone here that can help and advise, or offer moral support.

There are plenty of regulars here who follow all types of plan and will be willing and able to help you out or at least point you in the right direction.

You can join the 2 pound weight loss club (just ask Dellybelly) and see your results in a chart that's updated every Wednesday evening, also you can take part in the 5lb monthly challenge - Next one starts in first week in January 2008, New Year, New You??? So post your name and start the new list. (We all like to think we're going to lose 2lbs every week, but in reality that doesn't always happen, so 5lbs a month is a more realistic target.) And you could be Slimmer of the Week, or Slimmer of the Month! :j:j

We have plenty of recipes to help you in the recipes thread (link below) and there are links to useful websites below. Come and join us, we're a friendly bunch! There are even one or two gentlemen hiding amongst us!

    The link on Lose Weight 16 doesn't open Lose Weight 17 though - it opens the old one again!

    Opps sorry, the bigger link of the two is correct, the smaller one points back to LW16.

    My mistake :o

  • Thank you for all your lovely comments, I still hate getting my photo taken, although Im a bit better about it than I was. Unfortunately my mum takes them and shes about 5 inches shorter than me so the old double chin still shows although Im chuffed to bits that you DONT see it when someones taking a photo at the same level as me, if that makes sense lol

    bails: I havent set a final target yet, but probably still want to lose about the same amount again.

    missyg: Yeah I was struggling a bit lugging you around with me ;) Ive done it all on WW, started 9 Jan 07 :)

    crystal_fire: I hope your aunty Carol is your favourite auntie then ;) lol

    Well done to everyone who lost and maintained this week :)
