Lose Weight 17

OMG I can't believe I've just spent a good half hour debating/semi-arguing about what constitutes a bargain.

Am quite happy today cos I got my self-assessment finished. There's a monkey off my back. Grrr @ the taxman wanting 68p from me though. Darn buy-to-lets, more trouble than they're worth

Morning all

starting to put together page one for LW18, just a couple of things I would like to check.

Did someone mention that due to confusion we should drop the 2lb club and keep the 5lb monthly?

Any suggestions for a new poll, having a major brain freeze today, actually a crap weekend and low was forecast and happened, still is to be fair, but I hope to see brighter spells soon, though it may take a few days.

I know efrieze was happy for me to use her before and after picture, was there anyone else?

Cheers

....morning fella. I know what you mean about crap weekend and hopefully getting better over the week. Crack open a couple of beers and we'll whinge together.

You can happily use my pics as long as you say "during" or "now" rather than "after".

New poll? How about "What do you see as the major obstacle to you achieving your weight loss?"? If people can focus on a way to break down their biggest obstacle then it should make everything else a little bit easier. Examples could be kids, time, work patterns, willpower etc etc

Hi

Can I join in?

Don't really want to say how much I want to lose as would rather just go for each pound as it comes! I have been thinking for a long time that I should lose some excess weight and I spent the whole of the new year period actively avoiding admitting it to myself so I didn't have to make it a new years resolution

I lost a lot of weight several years ago but sadly all that I lost - and a bit more - has come back Just think that now is the time to do something about it, so can I join in with you all, please?

Hi:hello:

I only joined yesterday. Like you I lost weight and now back to where I was back then. It is so easy to put weight on than take off. I only need to look at a bar of chocolate to gain weight.
But everyone has made me feel so welcome and make you feel your are not alone.
So here's to 2008 and a slimmer us :beer:

Same as vix...I only have a before pic taken two weeks ago. When it comes to "Lose weight 21 (ish)" and you can see a difference between them, you're welcome to the pictures.:D

haha, im not going there again! I remember swapping sim cards with a male friend, cos i wanted a video saving on my sim card, then he played a video of me doing something dodgy that my boyfriend had videod. Ive never been so embarassed in my life!!!!!

Welcome oldmacdonald! I must have missed your post. Nows a good time to get yourself on a good new healthy lifestyle. I have gone from a size 16 to a small size 12 to now, a big size 12 to 14 trousers. Im catching myself before i creep back up to a 16! Ive maintained my weight thus far, but i hope to lose soon!

You'll find loads of tips and encouragement on here. Just keep checking back!
