Day 1

[sueyg]

Been on the slim fast diet for 3wks and lost 1lb per week. Have 8st to go. Getting married next September and after 30yrs dieting now is the time I intend to succeed. Just signed up to the 12 week plan. Love what I have read so far. Wish me luck and watch my results next week :0

Good luck There are a fair few people on here with a lot to lose like me - I still have about 10 stone to go even though I have already lost nearly 3.5 stones, so you are in good company.

I am trying to approach it as a lifestyle change rather than a diet and it seems to working so far.

All the best

Although it might seem like a long journey you really have an amazing goal and your part of a super supportive forum. Have you worked out your cals from the B M I nhs website. You've got lots of healthy calories to fill up on so when you feel bored or frustrated with your plan there are some very tasty alternatives. Good luck and keep posting, there's lots of cheerleaders here cheering you on!

Good luck! It's good to have a target to work to. I joined the forum last week and the support here is amazing.😄

Hi, I signed up yesterday and would love to lose 8 stone. I can't look at that number though and feel confident. I would be happy to lose 6 stone and then reassess. I did lose 8 stone a few years ago but in the last 5 years I've regained 6 of them. I've never been nor will I ever be slim but to be under 100kgs again will be brilliant. I do wish you success, it's a tough road but it's worth it, I felt so good when I could choose different clothes to wear and I wasn't full of anxiety all the time. So, like you I'm starting this plan and the support we receive from this community will help us stay strong. Maybe I'll see you on a weigh in day, best of luck. Yvonne

Losing weight is hard - but maintaining is just as difficult, I was never thin as a child or adult but people tell me I am slim now so I'll take that! Determination some times falters, I spend so long gritting my teeth I am surprised I haven't worn them down😳
