aw here you and jackie are making me tear up.
Its amazing how far you've come Lily. Your enthusiasm and determination is more inspiring than you'll ever realise. Next year I expect to see you on the cover of SW telling your amazing story (which we of couse all know since we were lucky enough to go through it with you)
xx
Thank you so much Aaliyah, you were one of the first people along with Roziee to welcome me to mini's and you don't know how good that made me feel, because for the 1st time in my life I felt someone was interested in what I had to say. I will be on that cover, not sure it will be next year as they don't run the story that often the year you lose it cos it would look daft if a year later you'd put it all back on, but I will be there one day and you my lovely ladies will be sharing my story as my inspirations and my mentors and each and everyone of you should be there telling your story too..we all have a story and I have read so many heart warming stories to keep my determination topped up to the max ...so thank you too :hug99: xxxxx
I agree. You really should be in it Lily. I would rather read about a person thats plodded along and lost 12 stone plus than someone who lost 1.5 stone. I don't mean this funny to people that only had ie 1.5 to lose as we all know what we'd like to be and all deserve recognition but from the magazine story point of view I would find it far more inspiring :bighug: x
Thank you my lovely twin, I promise you one day I will be in the mag as I said up there ^^^^. I am like you, great my Kirsty has lost a stone and half when she reaches target and that's awesome, but Kelly will have lost 6 stone and I would rather read her story (just examples) and others that have really had to work at losing masses. It gives me hope when I see those stories in the magazines as for the others I do tend to skim over them a bit sorry to say and as I said to Aaliyah you will all be there as part of my story (as long as they print word for word what I say, mind I can go on a bit can't I :giggle
xxxxxxx
And I totally Agree lily I told you you are a major inspiration to me ... X i too at my heaviest weighed 22 stone ! I think I have one photo but I also stopped weighing myself and looking in the mirrors so I may change my stats too after reading yours and the lovely jackie .. I was my heaviest two years ago lost some to get to 19 stopped thought I was a twig !!! Me kidding myself lol and something clicked this time now I don't follow sw but I do take tips from yourself and other people on here .
I am aiming to be 14 something by Xmas will have a break in that I mean a weeks rest from the gym and have a little of what I fancy and then 2012 is the year this butterfly will emerge next to yours and the other lovely ladies on here !!

Hey Katie, oh definitely change your stats if you haven't already my love, as I said to Jackie and she made me realise, we earned those stats and shiny's so it's about time we started to claim what is ours xxxx
I am sure you'll reach your goal by xmas hun, you seem determined enough...won't it be lovely to have all our new NOW pics up in 2012, I can't wait to see us all :bighug: thank you again for your lovely comments and support xxxxxx
Too bl**dy right Lily, you earned every single pound on that sticker.
You bmi is almost under 40. You know Lily, when you adopt you have to get your bmi under 40 because statistically you should live for at least the next 20 years as bmi 40 is the tipping point for weight related medical conditions. That's a huge thing to be so proud of Lily. Yor bmi was up near the 70's and now it's almost in the 30's what a massive massive achievement you have undoubtedly increased not just the quality of your life but the quantity too. What better gift to give yourself and family xxx
Omg Lucia I have cried on and off all day, but that really made me well up, thank you so much for your lovely comments, like I said earlier I am not a stupid person, far from it, but sometimes just don't see the wood for the trees, I never looked at it like that until you pointed it out and yes my BMI was dangerously high, but I never really gave much thought to how my weight had affected that and what a gift that was, so thank you for that hunni :hug99: thank you xxxxxxxxxxx Oh and welcome to my diary hun, good to see you here xxxxxxx
I am now officially blubbing guys, I don't do too much slushy but you guys are the best and iI really luv you all, you should all take some of the credit too as you are the ones that encourage me and keep me going, yes so do the girls in my class but that's 1 day a week, you lot are here 7 days a week 24 hours, cos I can rant and ramble and you always come back and give me help and support so :bighug: to each and every one of you xxxxxxx
