Journey to 10 stone loss
Hello, welcome to my little thread for my weightloss... I started slimming world 7 weeks ago, in the need to lose about 7 stone!!

I want to lose this weight because:
:- I dont want to be fat anymore!! (i have since i was in junior school!)
:- The rate I'm going I won't live as long as I could. :(
:- I want to be healthier & happier!
:- I want to be able to run around an play with my son & future children.
:- I want to be able to shop in 'normal' clothes stores. Not the 'fat' shops.
:- I NEED to loose the weight to help with my knee surgeries!


I nearly had gastric bypass surgery, i need to lose the weight as number 1, i am very over weight, 2 i need to lose it so i can have my knee/ligament surgery again as weight is a big problem with recovering. My consultant referred me to have it done, i was half way through my pre-op diet when i thought things through properly. I really wanted to try a healthy diet first before such major surgery at the age of 22. Ive done plenty other diets but they 'never worked' Well i cancelled my surgery an joined my local SW group.

Joined slimming world on 27th September 2011 - best decision i ever made!

Well first week I lost 8lb.
 
Thanks, I didn't think you calorie count for this? Or do you have a better loss that way too?
 
Well done on your loss i'm doing extra easy what about you? You've got such a positive attitude I've found for me this time it really clicked- i'll look forward to following your progress.

It's good that you have a positive attitude, knowing what you want to achieve and why, i find it helps to motivate me to work harder towards my target weight!!

ugh had a bad so many weeks after recieving my 3 & half stone award!!


16th may:.. gained half a pound which wasnt expected. 100% and was in gym everyday (which think is why i gained) :/
23rd May:.. i again gained. 1lb this time. i was gutted as kept up the gym everyday, and 100% food wise... which made me go off plan for the week after, had takeaway, no gym. an was my nieces birthday.
30th May:.. i gained 1.5lb :(

My sons 1st birthday the for the next week so i had a week off plan then went away day before weighin so had 3 weeks off plan.
6th June:.. on holiday
13th June:.. on holiday
So the BIG shock.... 3 weeks off plan totally. alcohol. lost of bad food. (they didnt seem to do 'healthy' options on holiday :( )
20th June:.. +13.5lb :sigh::cry: i was gutted!! But 10000% on track for my first week back :)




First week back on track from my holidays,
27th June:.. get ready!
