We are dart aren't we Emma! I can confirm you looked amazing, I dunno what you look like now though, you probably still look wonderful.
Anju, it is hard when two people are trying to lose weight under the same roof. That's why I'm glad I didn't lose more than a lb, because mum would have been devistated had I lost more than her in her 1st week back. Maybe just mention when there are promotions and offers on at sw and say how nice it would be to go together and support each other and you're sure she'd have some great recipes you could make slimming world friendly together. Being in a house with someone who is constantly hungry will be grim. And if you are constantly hungry you won't be as supportive as you otherwise might be. Yay for needing new underwear though! I think I lost either 2.5 or 3 stone when i went out and got myself a bunch of new bras. I have started to fasten them on the middle clasp recently which is something I have never done so that is pretty exciting.
Fastening bras on the middle setting is something new for me and it never occurred to be a little aim of mine. But having a waist less than 30linches has been a goal from the start. A less than 30 inch waist for women is a healthy size. I measured myself on Tuesday evening and it was 32 inches with no pulling tight and no breathing in! I didn't measure myself when I started, fear of what it would be, no tape measure, not really realizing I was supposed to do it right away, but mostly the horror of what it would be. No way was it going to be healthy! But just before I lost 2 stone I manned up, found a fabric tape measure and I was either 44" or 42" (i will need to double check in my book). 3 stone on and I'm 10 inches smaller, so I am hoping within the next stone I will sneak under 30" I should also say that now my hips and chest are 44" and 42" respectively. So now one or the other is what my waist was after nearly 2 stone lost. So over all I am still big but my waist is utterly random and goes in a lot... And then my massive arse sits under it! But the idea that a healthy waist is in my sights reducing the risks of various cancers, diabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease. For ever I thought I was ok because I didn't have any health problems. It took a while to realise i wasn't healthy, I was lucky. I'm so glad i started dealing with it last year instead of waiting until I was told I'd had a stroke, heart attack, diabetes etc. And now I'm so close to having a normal/low risk of these things. Big up being pear shaped!!!
