So far, so good.

When I started last Monday (7th Jan), I weighed 11st 5lbs and the plan suggested I lose 6lbs. I weighed myself this morning and am now 11st 1 1/2lbs. Beginners luck maybe but I'm well pleased. I do intend losing 8lbs altogether, then the battle to stay there begins. I'd like to lose 2 inches off my waistline, then I'll be really happy. I know it's not a big target but it'll make me feel better. So far, so good.

Great start, LB. Will you be joining one of the weigh ins?

Once you reach your goal weight, you could join the Maintainers Club for extra support

[LaughingBuddha Maintainer in reply to BridgeGirl]

Thanks for that. The Maintainers Club sounds good to me; I need to know more about the weigh ins - how do they work,when, where, etc.

[LaughingBuddha Maintainer in reply to Lytham]

Stick with it Lytham and you'll get it. I've told people I'm commited and they said I should be. Not sure how to take that!

[Lytham 3 stone in reply to LaughingBuddha]

Ha ha is that from people that know you well ??

[LaughingBuddha Maintainer]

I thought so, now I'm not so sure...!! Ah well! It's good to have a giggle though, don't you agree? A giggle a day helps you work, rest and... slim. LaughingBuddha - I just can't help it! Ha ha (and one for the road) ha.
