good luck to you!
I already have my dress and it is slightly too big which isn't an issue at the moment buuut i wasn't expecting sl1mm1ng w0rld to be as effective as it is, if i do end up losing more than i expected does anybody know how much a zip up dress can be altered? x

With your dress, I am sure they take it in on the side seam so that shouldn't be a problem. My alterations are included with the price of my dress and they were bout £250 but my friend went to a local lady who does altering and it cost about £50 which was really reasonable, It took a little longer but still worth looking locally. Nice problem to have though :)
I just hate that it has taken me 3 weeks to lose 4lb then I put it all on in about an hour!! Hey ho, new year new start and all that plus the countdown with only 341 days left on the side of my screen helps!!

CommentAuthorNicoleW665
yes if i was making the dress bigger i think i'd be less happy about spending the money ahaha
yes that count down and knowing the wedding is this year really does give you a nice push doesnt it!
I'm sure you will lose it again in no time and you will be glad that you enjoyed christmas and still managed to get where you want to be :) x

I hope so! I am sure I will. If I can't do it now I never will, will I hehe
Just got to do it and not talk about it :)
And also look at baby steps, every pound at a time, half stone rather than a massive 5 stone :)
yep i agree, i was gifted a 2017 pocket calendar for xmas which i carry in my bag and i've marked off smaller goals that i wan't to be at rather than thinking of the end goal straight away.
I am also using it as a food and weight loss diary that way I can see if i have a gain on any week what went wrong or if i have a good loss what i did.

That is why you are doing so well :-) tracking is the key :-)
I put on 3 in 3 weeks so not too bad. How did you Thursday weighers get on?

CommentAuthorGlitterfairy
I was slightly concerned that I was starting to put the weight back on that I had lost, made a good effort but working nights you tend to start eating rubbish, weighed myself yesterday and lost it all which was about 7lbs. Bonus. Back on track, and seeing as lost that it makes me think I could lose another 7lbs easy enough. Probs won't though.

I am getting so frustrated, 4 days of being really good ( a small blip yesterday with digestives) but other then that really good with food and going to the gym and scales say im up 2lb!!!! I am hoping its because Its TOM soon so maybe im retaining water but I could just cry. sticking to it and hoping its just a shock to the system from xmas binge to new year good food lol
xx
you all sound like you are doing amazing
CommentAuthorNicoleW665
Wizbit make sure you're are getting enough water back in your diet it really helps more than you think!
Well done Glitterfairy! that's great news
Weigh in went well for me last night - 2 pounds off x

i drink a minimum of litres a day at work plus coffee and squash on top :( I am sooo sad about this lol I am just keeping my fingers crossed its body shock and losses will start from week 2. sleeping so much better since joining the gym though so that's definitely a plus!
CommentAuthorNicoleW665
i'm sure next week will be a better week - it can take a couple days to a week to flush everything out of your system :) got my fingers crossed for you and if nothing else at least you are sleeping better

Hi ladies, now that "our year" has arrived it's shocked me into realising that I really need to do something about losing weight!! Ideally, I need to lose 3 stone before the wedding, but I'd be happy with 2 I think. I just can't get motivated though - hopefully you can help there lol! Not helped by the fact that I've had a continual headache for the past week, which I'm hoping is residue of a cold that just isn't clearing...if it hasn't gone by tomorrow I'll book a doctors appointment. Very frustrating as it's hindering my exercise regime and then I overeat, it's a vicious circle :-(
CommentAuthorGlitterfairy
Have managed to keep the extra weight I had lost on top of getting back to normal so happy with that, double gym session today so feel I should lose even more, not that it works that way haha

It was not as bad as I thought, it was hard doing my usual weights at pump following an hour's combat, but it was good. Doing it again on Thursday morning.

Nicole I'm not really part of SW or WW, but I'm doing MFP and trying to do as much exercise as I can - I'm definitely a foodie so I need to exercise to combat all I eat! It's not helped at the moment as I haven't been too well and so I'm craving comfort foods...ah well!

Just catching up on here as haven't been on for a couple of weeks. Well done Kaylie for getting rid of the Christmas gain I put 5lbs over the 2 weeks but missed weigh in last week so when I go Saturday I'm keeping everything crossed it has all gone (it will have been 2 weeks since my last weigh in). I can't believe how close you are to that stone award - must be in the bag for next week :)
I probably should start doing some exercise at some point, was looking in the mirror the other day and could see a bit of arm flab lol got some toning before the big day but I do still have over a year so I'm not putting too much pressure on myself x

CommentAuthorNicoleW665
i'm the same, I log on over my breaks, never find the time at home.
i've been trying some sl1mm1ng w0rld recipes this week which have gone well, the food is so good and that's what i love so much about it, i am hoping for a decent loss this week. I'm 4 pounds away from a stone loss and I want to get there ASAP x

Nicole, I've been doing the gym for a while now and do it a fair few times a week so was not too bad. It's possible when you do that. Doing it again Thursday but think I won't do it more than onc a week in future.

Put on about 5lbs over the Christmas period and think I may have another gain on Thursday. Have been trying to be good this week but keep slipping - bumped into a friend today so had cake, of course!
Hopefully will just be a maintain on Thurs *crosses fingers* Them I'm on it like Gromit.
CommentAuthorLesley0401
So I had a dilemma at the gym yesterday. I had my swimming costume on already and went into the gym, thought I felt the arm of my costume come down but turns out it snapped!! Luckily my gym has a small selection of costumes but I had left my purse at home as well. Had to beg them to let me take the costume, leave my phone with them so I can do my class then go home get my purse. Oh my and then on top of that the teacher was in reception so gave me a few joking digs. On the plus side my new costume is way more supportive when you jump out of the water if you get what I mean :)
I also take this as a plus to my dedication, back in the day I would have gone home but I am proud for sticking to my plan :)
Good luck with your weigh - ins this week ladies

CommentAuthorMrsC2Be
wow well done for staying, most would have run and never gone back!! probably didnt help if it was an older cheaper costume, get a decent one and youll be fine :) x

Emily I find mfp works quite well- it makes me feel guilty when I go over and I'm definitely more aware of what I'm eating. You can also sync it with any activity tracker you have like runk€€p€r or f!tb!t etc
Relatively happy today as actually managed to lose 1.5lb considering I've been eating naughty this week! Hoping to get back on the exercise wagon this week and see some bigger losses next weekend.
CommentAuthorJulieB11
I use MFP and link it into my f!tb!t. Joined SW last week so I'm sort of doing the two together. Second weigh in tomorrow, hopefully I've lost some. I have a little under 6 months to get rid of a stone.
CommentAuthorFutureMrsW
Good luck for your weigh in, six months should be fine to lose the stone, so long as you stick to plan you will lose x
CommentAuthorEmily17
I'm finding it good too. makes me think about it more.

Dinner was lovely. m@gg1es beef and red onion mix. I was good and didn't have seconds. Think that may have been my main problem. Not necessarily seconds but portion size. i definitely had less than normal but tried to keep it as reasonable as possible.

Well done on the losses last week girls. I weighed in on Sat having missed it last week and lost 5lbs which is all the Christmas/new year gain gone so back on track to be losing some now. My weight may be the same as it was start of December but I've noticed such a difference in my clothes fitting. Going to have do some retail therapy soon as they are all baggy and don't fit well now so happy that the inches are disappearing as well as the lbs :) x
CommentAuthorNicoleW665
Julie hopefully by next week I will have lost a stone in seven weeks so 6 months should be doable! Good luck
Well done Kathleen! Fresh start now, i know what you mean all my work clothes are baggy on me, even some that I bought only 2 weeks ago, I should have waited!
