My Weight Loss Journey
« on: October 11, 2011, 11:33:07 am »
Since being married I have gained quite a bit of weight. I would like to share my progress with you so I am more likely to stay on track.

Week 1: -1lb
Week 2: STS
Week 3: -2lbs

Week 4 weigh in is tomorrow night so I will be reporting back. xx

Good luck with the weight loss. I am heavier now than I've ever been and would like to shed a bit for health reasons but don't fancy doing so in the winter.  Hope it all goes well for you! You're doing really well so far!
Old but spicey!

I've heard slimming world is confusing
With WW you can eat what you want as long as you are within your points allowence. I love it!

that sounds much simpler. slimming world really confused me with all its free foods, syns and super free foods. and it contradicts itself all the time.

Lost 1.5lbs last night - total is now 4.5lbs. Really pleased

I like WW because you can eat anything. I can't do these diets where you have tocut things out. I low carb works but I just like to know that I am not restrcted.

A girl last night who is training to be a leader has lost 7 stone. She looks like a different person

Ha ha! We have just moved and the walk to the station is longer so I have made more of an effort to get more out of the walk by power walking. I can certainly feel it in my bum.
Watch this space for how much I lose necxt week. I am 2.5lbs away from my silver 7 but I don't think I will lose that much.
