Weight Loss Forum, All Welcome!

Pretty good ladyh! At least you are still losing.

I'm pretty static at the moment (must up the exercise!) but have now hit the 6 stone weight loss! Only another four to go to get to my ideal weight![:D]

[Skippy]

I don't know Ladyh, I seem to have lost all motivation. I find that I can't eat enough on Weight Watchers and feel hungry so then I pick. I also tend to cut out the healthy stuff - I don't really like fruit for example, so as I have to count the points I don't eat it and put it towards something nicer! I did think that it probably wouldn't hurt if I didn't point the fruit though.

I'm going on holiday in 2 1/2 weeks, so it's probably a bit late for me now!

Has anyone tried Rosemary Conley? I think it's the only diet I haven't tried and I was wondering whether to give it a go.

Well done Jan, you're doing brilliantly.

Thanks Skippy!

I did the Rosemary Conley years ago and it was ok at the time.

Have you tried the Atkins? It worked for me a few years ago - I lost 5 stone, but then I found the motivation disappeared and it all went back on again - and then some!

[Skippy]

I've thought about Atkins, but someone told me you get bad breath and it put me off! I think I would get bored with it!

[kallis3]

You do get bad breath, I just used to have loads of Gold Spot with me!

I used to love being able to have a fry up! I used to miss my toast though!

Well done Jan - that's amazing!
Well donee Ladyh - 15 pounds in 8 weeks is great!

I managed (for about the 3rd week running!) to put on another 0.5 lb as I can't seem to get focussed. I've crashed emotionally and so don't bother to eat properly, when I do it's junk I go for. Can't seem to bother wanting to look after myself, I don't feel like I deserve it.
Not feeling sorry for myself, and I don't want to whinge, I'm desperately trying to avoid going back on anti depressants cos they really cause me to gain weight - the last thing I need!

Good luck everyone - I will try and get going again!

Pap - I have had surgical assistance with mine so it's a bit of a cheat really!

You need to get motivated again - you do deserve it. I've done the comfort eating all the time until the doctor suggested I do somethng about it and I've never looked back and feel so much better.

Just think about how you want to look when your IVA is finished and strive towards that.

[kallis3]

Not good! You'll have to starve for the rest of the week now![:D]

I've had homemade wine and got the munchies, so had 2 bags of crisps. Supposed to be losing weight, not a lot, want to lose 9lb in next 2 months. Never going to do it. I lost 7lb in 4 weeks but nothing in last 3 weeks. oops! Got race for life in July so need to get fit too. I think I must be feeling depressed about my age, won't be in my 30's soon. My life might begin though.[:D][:D]

[Skippy]

I'm doing my Race for Life on 6th June so I'll definitely be walking it!

I wish I only had 9lb to lose wonder, I need to lose about 2st, but I don't seem to have the motivation. I need a kick up the backside!

[wonder]

I'd like to lose more but doubt that will happen, my body like's being that weight and its too hard to lose more without suffering. I'm between size 10 & 12. Was size 8-10 a year ago.

[wonder]

Oh, my race for life is on 19th July(2;30pm) in case I get hangover.[:D] Could have done it at 10;30am

[Skippy]

Mine is 2pm on 6th June. I was planning on running, but didn't get any training in, so I'll try and walk it as fast as I can.

I weighed myself and I lost 1lb this week - I've no idea how but I'm not complaining!

[wonder]

I went for a bike ride with my 9 year old son today. I was so tired and legs ached. Haven't been on my bike for quite a while, but think I will keep it up as I think it will get me fit aand lose some weight. Hard work.[:0]

[kallis3]

Well done Wonder - can't remember the last time I was on a bike!

I've taken the dogs for a walk, and will shortly be going again before I head off to work.
