Going it alone...so my diary and you I hope become my group! :)

[Gemsta]

So I needed a pick me up after this week. I've made a compilation picture of me when I started SW the end of August and then today. Please excuse my lack of smiling...lol.. Ray takes ageeessssssssss to take a picture and I get fed up waiting!...lol... But anyway I think you can see the difference quite a lot in it

 

[LittleOne83]

Amazing difference, well done! I didn't take a before pic and now wishing I had.
Maybe try a slightly fitted top too and show off your figure, nothing to hide now+

 

[Gemsta]

Oh I have more to shift yet...lol.. But I do wear better fitting ones when going somewhere nice Was just a housework day yesterday before picking my niece up for the weekend so was in 'comfys' Thanks though.. I also took my measurements, but misplaced them, that I am gutted about, hoping that they show up one day

 

[Jellybean33]

I popped into B&M to get some bits to occupy our niece for the weekend and got some choc toffee and choc vanilla options sachets 20p each!...was gutted as they had a cherry one ticket but no stock ...lol.. I'd have liked to try that one. I also got some Mikado (2 for £1) Buttery Frylight 99p a bottle and some boxes of Alpen Lights the Cherry Bakewell and Lemon Drizzle ones so looking forward to those for a change and some fizzy zero vimto....feeling re-inspired now

Oh, they did those cherry options ages ago as a limited edition and were SOOOOO nice- hope they bring them back!

I get both of those alpen flavours and they are delish!

 

[Jellybean33]

Just noticed your photos....wow, amazing transformation! If that doesn't give you a much needed confidence boost, I don't know what will! Xx

I take them, upload them them to a album on Facebook only I can see then have them to see/use from there

 

[Nanny Doreen]

Those pics are brilliant You must be proud. Keep it up.

 

[Elkie]

I've taken some bra and Knicks ones! Although they don't look that bad, which is good but then I don't think the after pic looks as dramatic if that makes sense?n

From your starting weight as you have here in your profile? Or have you lost more previously. If so don't think you will tell much with 4lb so far, maybe when your nearer target?

 

[Elkie]

I lost 2 stone last year but not through dieting just changing jobs! Bit gutted I don't have a picture from before that! I hope to lose 2 more stone!

 

[Gemsta]

Yeah.. if you had one from before you would defo tell... maybe keep your original ones and take some more once you've lost your first stone again as such..you will be able to tell then I bet!
