rebsengland said:9.5 pounds No gains, this week is my 5th weigh in. It seems to be a steady weight loss for me. Think I have become obsessed with weighing myself everyday at home. I have decided that even if I have gained or maintained this week I know I have tried my best. I knew that losing weight was never going to be easy, but I won't give in.
Bron said:Hi
I think it is easy to become obsessed, in the past have I have hopped off and on the scales every day and got really fed up if the weight wasn't coming off!
I think I've now convinced myself that I have to be in this for the long haul, that this is a life style change, I didn't get to be this size overnight and I am not going to be skinny overnight either. So I really try to weigh once a week (sometimes have a peek once midweek!!!)
Keep going you know that you are worth the investment of the time and attention this journey will take, expect to reach your goal, just be really realistic about how long it will take. Remember each day is part of the journey, some will be easy and some will be hard, start each day as though it's the first day, carry no baggage about yesterday.
Keep in touch
Good luck
Bron

rebsengland said:I am 16 stone and 1 pound from my weigh in on Wednesday. I really would love to get into the 15 stone area by next week. There was a not so nice remark said about my weight loss by one of the girls on my last weigh in, just loud enough for me to hear. This really upset me. But I won't give in I will keep going. Thanks bron for you kind words of encouragement in your post to me.

Tessieg1 said:Hi everyone, I'm 16st 6 and I have my weigh in tonight. Feeling pretty nervous. Started the gym this week, but have been pretty good. Fingers crossed for a loss! Have a good day.
Terri1985 said:hey there. Started slimming world almost 2weeks ago, lost 5 1/2lbs at last WI on wednesday so am now 16st 6 1/2lbs. I am 29weeks pregnant so doubt i will get down to the 15's any time soon but hoping to atleast stay in this bracket and not go up until I give birth and then I can carry on trying to lose weight.
Though saying this, I am hoping to lose a little even if it's only 1/2lb a week til i give birth as my diet has changed so much for the better
Hope you guys don't mind me joining this group!
