Roll up, roll up!!! :welcome2:

This is the 20-stone room! For anyone between 20st 00lb and 20st 13.5lb!

Several of you have been escaping from the 21st room lately :hmm: We'll have none of that unless we can keep tabs on you and you tell us how the bladdy hell you did it :p

I shall be back in a fortnight when this last 3lb has buggered off :cool:
 
I am really pleased to find this as there wasnt anywhere to go!

The news, Ermi my friend is that not only have I escaped the 21's but i'm getting rid of the bl**dy 20's pretty quick as i'm currently at 20:6. Trying to get to 19:13 by Christmas.

Hints are speed speed and more speed, not the wacky stuff mind!
 
Woooooo fabtastic! :clap: Dont go too fast or Ill be all on me own again when I finally get into this room! :cry: :D
 
Yo! I'm here! :cool:

That was fast! :eek: 4lb off this week! I'm a 20-zoner! :greenapple:
 
Yay! I want another 5.5 off by Xmas to get me 7 stone badge :)
 
Wow 7 st! you amazing thing you! You must have some real determination and will power! I've got 11 st to shift in total but try not to think about it too much, as It's a rather daunting thought, but I'm sure I'll get there eventually. How have you found your journey so far?
 
'Ello - I'm 20st 4lb at the moment so hopefully won't be here too long - another 2/3 weeks if I stick to my average! :D

Great, but I have no idea why its suddenly clicked this time when Ive tried it a gazillion times before and fell off :confused: I would sit there every day and think of all these healthy meals, and make them too, but think ohhh but one day off wont matter, one takeaway wont matter, at least its healthier than eating this stuff every day, as long as I fit ten bladdy bits of fruit in at least thats SOMETHING right etc etc etc, and Id look up where my nearest class was and when it was convenient and all that, you know the story...

Then one day I just looked at myself and said you know, the only difference between doing this and not doing it is getting off the damn couch and GOING TO THE BLADDY CLASS right NOW. And no, it wasn't convenient, in fact I couldnt even find a SW class near me that was on that day but I thought if I leave it til tomorrow the moment has passed and Ill get back on the couch and order another pizza - so I went to a WW class just to get weighed but in fact following the SW plan at home.

That was back in Feb and here I am 6 1/2 stone lighter. I have no idea why that day was different to any other. :confused: In the meantime I've learnt loads of new fabby recipes and met loads of lovely people on here :)

Anyway thats not really what you asked is it, it all sort of rolled out of my gob :8855: I frequently have this problem! :eek: :rolleyes: 6 1/2 stone down, God knows how many to go, I dont really have an end-target :D I remember the 1st time I did SW they set it at 9st 13lb! :eek: I dont think we'll be going that far, heh :D In fact that's exactly 11 stone away - NOOOOOOOO we're DEFINITELY not going THAT far! :eek: :D

Haha! feel to free to chat away erm I love hearing people different stories and about their journeys, I think a weight loss journey is such a personal thing as some people can be incredibly critical as to what they see should be eaten on a "diet" and thats why "diets" are so difficult to stick too! my veyr slim friend always says to me " should you be eating that?" or " how can you eat that and lose weight" But hse doesnt know how great slimming world is!

I had a lightbulb moment the other day, I'm very hard on myself and have a dreadful habit of, If i slip up slightly and I mean very slightly for example going over my syns by 2 or 3 I think sod it I cant do it, and have a takeaway or junk food and feel really crappy about myself and end up losing nothing. I need to start realising I AM HUMAN, no matter how alien I may feel or appear! ha! and that I will slip up but the most important thing is to just carrying on and dealing with my mistake rather than letting it consume me.

but your a true inspiration erm and have already spied your thread with the nommy looking piccies so I will be subscribing to that as I LOOOOVVE cooking!

My consultant is very good and doesn't ever give me an end target, she always gives me my club 10 target, and never ever puts anymore targets than that as I have a considerable amount to lose.
 
Erm I've just read ur story I can relate to all u said , I tried so many times to lose weight but mnever I'm that proper frame of mind u need to be in , but I hit that point that unless I do something my life might well be over coz quality of life was non existent , feeling depressed in constant pain in back , hips, knees, I went to sw last week of june I have lost 5st 6.5 so far , I have days when that demon rises it head , why does it never go , but I'm determined it won't win this time cox I love the way I'm starting to feel , still the odd hang ups some days and to be honest I havent git to grips wiv looking in s mirror and seeing a slimmer me yet , I think I look the same but hey ho maybe o e day , sorry if I waffled to much but I love this site , my thin friends don't understand wot it's like so font really say to much to them ,

Well done on a fab loss this week Erm.

One and a half off for me this week so now at 20:5

Away with Hubby for 2 nights at the weekend. First night away without the children for 3 years! Our middle child has special needs so it's a bit full on here! I am aiming for a sts this week and have 6lbs to reach my Xmas target so dont want to go really mad! Aiming to be really good til Fri night and really good from Sun night and have some treats but not go overboard.

Well done on the loss hun :)
Wow that will be lovely for you hun! Nice break does everyone the world of good.



Well I've been really poorly this week, and I keep being sick :( I can keep water and cups of tea down but not alot else I'm afraid. So I'm not sure what to do, think I wont try and eat anything today and see how I feel by 2moro, some times with bugs like this, a day of hunger kills what ever is floating around.
 
You could stick to green this week so you can eat some bland carbs like plain pasta, toast and potatoes? That often helps with an upset tummy?

Thanks hun, Yeah I'm a bit stuck as to know what to do exactly, why couldnt this of hit me last week? lol
 
Just had weigh in - 3.5lb off so am now 20st and 1/2lb!! Got Slimmer of the Week too. So chuffed I'll be saying bye to the 20s before Xmas. Only 3lb to go now till my 2 stone. :-D
 
2lbs off for me tonight so now 20:3lbs!
 
Woo hoo! Well done! :clap:

My scales couldnt make their mind up this week, they kept fickering between 3lb difference :confused: So I picked a number near the top to be on the safe side, so I've lost a half.

Scales have made up their mind this morning though and settled nearer the bottom of the range, so hoping for a good loss next week, in time to meet my goal by Xmas! :)
 
You are doing great Erm :D
