    It's right what they say
    "The course of true love never runs smoothly"
    But if it had been easy then we wouldn't love each other as

    Quite an interesting diet book free with the Feb issue of Cosmo. Seems to be a modification of the GI diet, with a 2 week no carb starter period.

    I went to my first slimming world class last night with h2b and really enjoyed it, there was a women there that had lost 8 1/2 stone in 2 years, she was truly amazing, now the hard work starts. I was actually 11 stone 5 on their scales although I am only 11 3 1/4 at home so here is my starting point.

    weight 11 stone 5
    height 5 ft
    target weight 10 stone
    measurements - bust 42 - waist 35 - hips 42

    Update:

    Sam - 5ft 5
    Start date 4/1/11
    Start measurements - Bust 35", Waist 29", hips 41"
    Current measurements - Bust 34" (I knew it!), Waist 27", hips 40"
    Goal - Bust - 34", Waist 26", hips 38" (or as small as I can get em!)

    I think the waist loss is probably more to do with a difference in time of day that I measured myself as I tend to bloat more as the day goes on. From now on all measurements will be on Tuesday morning when I get up.

Oops.......really need to be good from now on or my dress won't fit me! I may risk weighing myself in a couple of days.

    Hey Lemlau, I lost 3 1/2 stone on WW in 2010. I found it easy to stick with and very rewarding. I fell off the band wagon over Xmas and new year so am going to go back tomorrow evening (I think lol), to give my diet a kick start! I agree with leafy, the pro points are great :-) Good luck with your weight loss xx

    has anybody used slimming world - was it any good
    and has anybody used the online membership rather than the group membership

    im getting married in October and really want to loose about a dress size and a half for then .. so u think its possible

    also has anyone tried the acai berrys and colon cleanse thing??

    hi guys, I started the new weight watchers on Tues and I have to say I'm liking it, it does seem too good to be true, I'm finding it hard to eat all the points and that's not including the 49 bonus points I'm allowed, although it's always the weekend that gets me so we shall see. I don't see how I can lose weight on this but if I do I'm well impressed x
