Snap Heather, 1lb off for me too lol

Although I was initially disappointed it wasn't more, I later realised I'd got my half a stone award!
(Yes I've had it once before, but that was 5 years ago and I basically started again this time round!!)

Hi all,

I really hope you dont mind if I join you?

I have a long way to go, but not quite as long as I did last september.....allow me to explain...

I weighed myself last September and tipped the scales at 20st 2lb, I nearly cried....I have been big all my life but this was the first time I reached the 20st mark.

I immediately went onto doing Slimming World myself..ie not joining a group..it went really well and by the end of January 2015 I had lost 3st exactly.

Since then my weight has slowly crept back up again, my own fault for not keeping to the plan.

I have avoided getting on the scales, as you do, but known for a couple of months now that I have definitely gone the wrong way. Clothes getting tighter, skin not as soft, get out of breath easier etc etc......so this morning I decided to take the plunge and get on the dreaded scales....... I have only gone and put 2 of the 3 stones back on that I lost........what an idiot!!

So here I am for some support along the way, I am determined as on our Wedding Anniversary next year we are holidaying in Scotland which we love so much. I would love to be able to go hill walking without the fear of getting out of breath and just being able to enjoy it.

I used to be a Thursday weigher and got a lot of support from Minimins last time which I see has now bit the dust. So here I am feeling posisitive again and hoping for a good loss next Monday.

Thanks for having me

You are more than welcome here! The more the merrier

I think we all know how it feels to do so much and then put some (if not all or more like I did!) back on. It's so disheartening, but you've not put all of it back on, so you've still got that 1 stone loss which is brilliant
And I'm sure once you get back into the swing of things you'll see those lbs dropping off

Have a fantastic week, and I look forward to seeing you around the forums Good luck!! x

Thank you Sarahc4536. Much appreciated.

I have decided even though I have put my starting weight as the 20st 2lb that I will only register on here my progress from today as far as rewards go, do you think that seems fair? :-)

I haven't weighed this week yet as I've been on holiday. Going to try and get to a group tomorrow to log a weight which I'm hoping wont be too much of a gain

My weight in is on a monday night, last night I lost 1/2 lb. Not bad considering I had a busy weekend socially (wine is majorly my downfall.)
Today begins week 4 of my slimming world journey and so determined to beat last week. The great thing is after your weigh in it is like your slate has been wiped clean!
