Lovely reasons!!! How much do u hope to lose angel? Xx

 

[Cobra]

Do you know, I don't really have a set weight in mind, would be happy in size 12.

But 1 stone at a time is my best goal I can set myself, I don't like to look too much at Government guidelines, as its a load of poo! like the government lol!

That made me lol!! poor fella... that's interesting - what are the differences you have noticed?

Well for one the weekly points vary depending on how much you weigh, so those with not much left to lose are on 35 weekly points instead of the 49 I am on at the moment.

Also I am not sure if you guys have the filling portions (no idea what it would actually be called in English as the Germans have some oddly specific words which don't translate) so you can eat as much pasta as you want to fill yourself but only count it as 7 points or as much chicken as you feel full with and only count 5 points, obviously you can't eat it until you explode or that is cheating

Have already posted on the November challenge but here are my quiz answers:

Weight loss so far: 23 stone 9 down to 20 stone 2.5 = 48.5lbs

Favourite food: Pizza

5 reasons for dieting: 1) to feel more confident 2) to wear girly clothes and not big, baggy, sack-like clothing 3) to be treated like a normal person and not a fat one 4) to not be scared about walking through crowded pubs/restaurants 5) to be able to shop wherever I want to

I do, even though we went to one of my BFs friends last night for dinner, the guy knows we're doing WW and yet served us a Cheese fondue with bread to dip... very yummy but lucky I saved all my weekly points and most of my dailies for it!
