I think that's an awesome NSV Hamish's mum, not letting one bad gym experience put you off. A few sessions when it's a bit quieter and you'll be tonnes more confident when you next go during a busy time
Hi everyone...I had the most wonderful NSV of my journey so far....I started my journey at a whopping 31st 7lb and a size 38/40 (well that was the size clothes I squeezed into )...joined SW when I was 25st 3lb and at that time my daughter gave me a gorgeous dress well, at the time I was a size 30/32 and I couldn't even get it over my shoulders, anyway...I am now just in my teens, 19st 12lb and decided to try the dress on ...and I got it on...doesn't look wonderful and I am not kidding myself I am a size 20, but the point is I got it on..omg at this rate I will definitely be a size 18 by Christmas and hopefully at my goal of 12/14 by August when my youngest daughter gets married ...I am so excited xx

Thanks everyone I do feel amazing already, I don't really remember exactly what it felt like to be that size ...so much weight loss since ...but I can remember feeling like I was the ...I can't even say walking as I couldn't...a wobbling mess that felt half dead...I am so much alive now and so much fitter...I swear I couldn't feel any better if I was at goal already...I just find something that makes me smile everyday and that keeps me going towards my goal, even when I have the odd blip and I will be at my target weight or as near as I can be. xx
Hamish'smum, you are a star...well done on not giving in and going back. xx

Either too big or really tatty or never worn. 2 bags for the charity shop, 1 for the bin and when I was trying on an evening dress that I've had for years! Husband actually said that he'd never seen me so thin!
Wow! and thinking about it, he really hasn't! I was much bigger when we met and although I lost weight for the wedding, I still wasn't as thin as this and after the wedding I piled it on.
Now all I need is somewhere to go where I can wear any of the 4!! beautiful dresses that now fit me before they get too big! Lol!!
Great NSV Well done x
Btw don't throw the clothes away - give them to the charity shop too as they can sell them!

I AM A SIZE 26!!!!!
A 26!!!!
:faint2:
:bliss: :bliss: :bliss:
I just had a delivery from Simply Be as Id ordered some last minute stuff for this wedding tomorrow (after the last fiasco when I found everything smart I possess is too big!) - well I ordered stuff in a 30, 28 and 26, basically expecting it to be hopefully a 28 but get a 30 on the off chance it was still too tight, then if I really liked it Id keep the 26 as Ill shrink out of them pretty soon (hopefully!), so in a couple of months what is tight now will fit and I dont want to be buying twice. Well all the 30's were too big, AND THE 28'S WERE TOO BIG AS WELL!!! Woo hoo!
I havent bought any new stuff since I started this plan, which was basically when I could no longer even *squeeze* into a 32+ Ive been happy that Im getting too small for my older stuff that I didnt fit into any more but Im amazed that I *already* fit the 26's!!! :bliss:
(Well, it's my top end that's a 26, my arse is a size bigger than my boobs, so my arse is currently a 28 - but I can still get into the 26's so Im keeping them instead of the 28's, cos theyll fit no problem in a month or so )
