My answers are:
Ive been 16 wks on the diet this time
Ive lost 2 stone 2 lbs this time plus 10 lbs before i started so total of 2 stone 12 lbs
This (16wks) is the longest ive stuck to a diet my whole life
I love that i can have anything once its pointed so dont feel im missing out on anything
I am delighted with how well ive done ive lost nearly a third of what i need to lose. 1 lb to go

 

[Goose1]

Evening all, hope you guys have had a great day

1)How long have you been on the diet this time?
Just over 11 weeks

2)How much have you lost in total on this diet?
9.8 Kilos which is roughly 1 Stone 7 and a half pounds!

3)what is the longest you have stuck to a diet
Well I was with Slimming World for about 3 years and lost 4 stone then put half a stone back on and afterwards struggled yo-yoing between 20 and 21 stone for about a year of that. I probably only stuck to plan for about 6-8 weeks at a time.

4)what is it about this diet that you like?
It lets me have my treats on a daily basis, I can go out to eat and know that I can keep within my points, that my boyfriend is supporting me and losing weight too.

5)How well do you think you have done so far ?
Really well, even at times when I have not been able to eat within the WW plan I have been right back on track, whereas before I might think, oh fudge it I'll just hoover every bit of food I see into my mouth and then give up. Helps that the Mann is also following WW as we can motivate each other when one of us has a down day, and if he is having a down day too I know that you guys are here to offer advice and support!

My positive for the day:

I went to Nuremberg to meet a friend I haven't seen since Feb 2005, it was lovely and I didn't go overboard with Christmas Market goodies, but this is not my positive. We worked together in a bookshop and the run up to Christmas was always, as you might imagine in retail, was always very hellish and stressful. She made me remember that my final Christmas there in 2004 I decided to give up smoking because I thought if I can get through Christmas without smoking then I sure don't need to do it the rest of the year. That was 7 years ago, and I still haven't had an cigarette! That is my positive for today

Good luck tomorrow. Hopefully it wont be on too long . I remember not even being able to wash my hair properly all stuff you just take for granted let us know how you get on x x x


Ps to give you a laugh i broke my wrist on holiday in corfu. I was on a moped in our complex and the moped slid on the gravel and i hit a small wall around the pool , went over the handlebars and landed on some poor unsuspecting fella sunbathing on a lounger. Hope this gives you a chuckle

Oh he was . He was a footballer from one of our irish first division teams , thank god i was thinner or his career could have been finished lol. Just think this time next year after all the weight loss you could be stopping traffic for different reasons but have to say you look fab in your profile pic so dont be putting yourself down missus x x

Ps your old profile pic of course

Sounds good bring it on january wont knw what hit it !!!!

 

[emmaholl]

What a motivated bunch we are!!

For years I've been saying "this time next year I'll be slimmer, and people won't recognize me!" and I've never done anything about it. This time I'm doing something about it and I am determined that 2012 will be the year I break all my own records.

I am determined to do some form of exercise and I will stick to this diet and keep losing the weight. I have a wedding in Jan to go to and an event in July - I fully intend to be slimmer and more confident!!

Good luck to us all for 2012 - we can do it!

Emms xx
