Losing weight

Hi everyone,

I joined Weight Watchers last week as I was fed up with the way I was looking. I am on Gabapentin and HRT. I thought that it would be hard . I am pleased to say that in a week I have lost 7lb!!

I am very pleased with myself to say the least.

I will be slimmer for my holiday in July. 😝

3 bags of sugar sounds right to me. So you are aiming for 1st April. Sounds positive. Not sure if I can make that, but will have a go. I've got 1st of May in my mind with practices in April.

I'm good at losing the money type too.

I'm in the right frame of mind, and I think that is very important. My friend is getting married at the beginning of April so I have been looking at outfits.

That has what has motivated me. I haven't seen her for a while, so when she sees me I hope she will notice 😊😝

Love Jane xx

Well done. That's great. Seeing weight loss really gives you the motivation to carry on doesn't it. You are going to look a knock out at the wedding :). Keep up the excellent work. I'm sure you must be thrilled. X

I have just moved house about a month ago. I have also gone back to work after being ill with my Fibromyalgia. I feel like a new person I must admit. I feel like I have given myself a new start.

Good luck with the move .
