Hey Shel, hey Jacky!

My and my OH are getting married abroad towards the end of the year, so pregnancy or not, I'd like to get my bum back into shape! I'm actually going to Slimming World tomorrow, so will keep you posted on recipes etc.
At the moment I'm 154lbs (which is about 10 stone 10). I'm 5'6'' (165cm) and I'd like to get down to about 9 stone 7 again, so about 17lbs to lose.

No more

My friend has dropped 2 stone on slimming world so good for you - i'm going to weight wtachers and have my weigh in tomorrow evening!

i cannot do it off my own back, too easy for temptation to creep in! so long as i keep running i should be okay!

Good luck girls!

I lost 5 and half stone 6 years ago doing the slimming world diet along with gym 2/3 times a week and cycleing everywhere.

i have put the whole lot back on, with quitting smoking, a pregnancy and cronic post natel depression for 14 months where i rarely left the house and ate till the cows came home.

diet started today so this couldnt have been timed any better.

good luck girls

I need 2 lose a bit 2.. i recently lost sum.. Went frm 196lbs to 170lbs and frm a size 16womens with a 35inch waist to a size 10 or 12womens with about a 31inch waist.. Now ask me how i did that and i couldnt tell u.. I call it the im just broke diet lol but now it just stopped and i dont wanna stop. I know for my build i look best at a size 8womens cause i have a beyonce thick body type. I used 2 be that size but after a couple of m/cs the sadness and eating took over. They say the last few lbs are the hardest 2 lose and i got bout 15 2 go but seein im ttc and they say over exercising is bad for fertility i need some good tips or recipes or something!!! Of course i will share any info i find im always raving bout green tea but.. It helped my friend concieve and i also read that it lowers blood sugar levels which aids in weight lose seeing ur body will burn off extra sugar in blood be4 it even starts on body fat.. So that can only give a head start

be carefull with the green tea, its not good in the 2ww as it reduces the affect of folic acid, i only take it af till ov.

well done for the weight lose already, i understand the sadbess and eating because of m/c

porkpie1981 · Jun 17th, 2008, 14:45 PM

Im just over 14 and a half stone (nearly died when i weighted myself). I thinks thats 205 lbs

I should be anywhere between 116lbs and 140lbs but if i lose 2 stone i would be happy

Im going to join weight watchers

lousielou · Jun 19th, 2008, 07:39 AM

Update: Slimming World class was cancelled, so am going to do it on my own and save the money! I think what'll really help me is having you lot to report back to every week though!

Me and my OH are booking our wedding in the next few weeks too, so that's another incentive to slim down a wee bit. I have to confess though girlies, whenever I have put on a bit of weight in the past, I've been a bit naughty and taken slimming pills to slim back down, so I'm not used to doing it the sensible way

Obviously, as we're TTC that is totally out of the question now. It doesn't help that I am very impatient!!

How's everyone else doing? x

jacky24 · Jun 19th, 2008, 08:24 AM

Well im still kicking, a bit more bitchy lately, being off all my Fertility pills and all, so im one hormonal ball of bitchyness.

Thank god for my treadmill at home been walking it into a heat buzz at night doing 1h30min a night now, and cut down on all my carbs, and drinking tons of water.

Will be doing the monthly weigh in on the 28th of June after i have been to the homeopath, hopefully he can give me something to help me O and lose wieght at the same time.
