Hello All, don't know if you remember me posting about joining Slimming World a few months ago but I'm still going and still losing!

Lost 3st 3.5lbs to date and the most amazing thing happened today. I was voted group Woman of the Year!!!! I feel on top of the World!

I took the opportunity to provide some leaflets about the symptoms of OC too!!

If any of you are wanting to lose weight I can recommend Slimming World. It not only works, but the food you are encouraged to eat fits in so well with everything you should be eating to help beat OC. I feel great!

Sending love to everyone!

Congratulations Annette,

That's brilliant news - significant weight loss, Woman of the Year and giving people info about OC - you should be really proud of yourself.

I hope that you are treating yourself to lots of new clothes.

Love

Well done Annette, I also won this award in 2010 and was at target until last year. You've inspired me to get back on it. Do treat yourself to a few new things to wear as you deserve it. xxx

Well done you, I am also doing the slimming world diet, I started with the 5:2, hubby has continued with that but I went back to SW who I was with pre-diagnosis. It really helps with the motivation to read posts like yours, I've lost 8lbs so far, a long way for me to go yet.

Congratulations

Brilliant! Well done! I went to Slimming World about 7 years ago and managed to lose two stone: it was when my weight suddenly went up that I began to think something was wrong ( I had kept the weight off for four years at the time) and that was when they found my tumour. Thankfully I am now well but I think in some ways I have Slimming World to thank!

Many congratulations! I also found that SW was a great way to combine all of the advice about nutrition as suggested at Penny Brohn with weight loss and managed to shift my chemo weight gain (2 1/2 stone) in about 9 months without giving up too many of the things I enjoy (mostly wine !). It won't be for everyone but fitted in well to how we eat! Enjoy your well earned celebrations! Xx
