    Oh RaggedyAnne! You made me laugh! But gross!

    You can still eat burger and chips hun - just make yourself at home, I'm sure it'll be just as if not more delicious than Maccy D's and prob half the fat! Don't deprive yourself as you'll only make yourself miserable xxx

    Yeah I thought of that too, I wont deprive myself or I will fall off the wagon....I should really still have what I like.....just less of it. a smaller plate maybe. my all time favorite burger is lamb and mint......yum.

    Ive put that i need to lose weight but finding it hard but i only really have myself to blame for that!! Its been six years since i met H2B and i was a size 12/14 ive never really been small always had big boobs and hips even in school!! Well im now a 20!!! :( I have had a baby inbetween lol who will be 3 in october and ive been kidding myself for wayyy to long that its still baby weight!!
    I remember when i was pregnant them telling me how overweight i was and i remember being so embarresed i wouldnt even let me H2B know how much i weighed and i still refuse to tell him now (probly because I dont want him to realise how much ive let myself go :( )
    Anyway I joined up to slimming world in January and lost 2 stone in 10 weeks!! I was doing fab (even if i do say so myself lol) I was really in the zone until i started getting the pain with my wisdom teeth (had surgery to have them removed 2 weeks ago) and for the last 4 weeks ive had excuse after excuse to not go to the gym or to treat myself to a takeout because ive been down or how its ok to have more chocolate il start again tomorrow and yet tomorrow never comes LOL!!

    I must admit the wedding has helped me kinda stay ont rack with dieting and defifnutly spurred me on to join slimming world but i do have a more long time goal!! Me and the other half are hoping to try for another baby towards the end of this year and I would love to be a healthy weight rather than having to be in consultant led care just because of my weight and i think it would help so much being a better weight with carrying a baby!!

    Well im going to go back to my slimming world class this wednesday and face the music access the damage and get back in the zone x x

    I'm losing weight slowly and have had a few blips along the way!! I'm doing it for me as I've been married before and hated the photographs and was really cross with myself afterwards. This time I'm actually a dress size smaller now and am now concentrating on toning up rather than much more weight loss. I may do the shakes diet a couple of weeks before and I've booked an inch loss body wrap so I'll be bikini ready for the honeymoon. I think it is personal choice and as long has you feel good about yourself on your big day then it's up to the individual bride xx

    i choose need to loose weight but im finding it hard... i am only 3 weeks in ,... the first week i lost 1lb 1/2 not a great start and second week my h2b was on a weeks holiday from work , knows im on diet but i he doesnt understand it and has been the doting fiance bit bless him, having my tea cooked for me when i arrive home from work and bought us a take away one night ..lol so second week i maintained ...not good, lol but the diet was out of the window, he made such a nice effort, which i appreciate whole hartedly and didn't want to appear ungratefull. right so now im in my 3rd week and i hope its gonna be better but slimming world involves alot of fresh food which cost and im just struggling :( xx

    Ha ha ha! Funny stuff RaggedyAnne. Glad I made you smile!! I've just got back from Pizza Express too... this has been such a naughty weekend! Well we've agreed absolutely no more bad foods or wine until the wedding now. We have 3 weeks to really sort ourselves out. I've ordered a box of meal replacement shakes and bars and aim to eat pretty much nothing else (except maybe some fruit) for the next 3 weeks... desperate times.... x

    Hmm I picked the last one. I went to Mauritius in Sept with work and felt really uncomfortable on the beach. Wouldn't take my sarong off as I was with a colleague rather than friends or h2b. Realised when I got home I was the heaviest i'd ever been (10.6 stone). H2b proposed the day I returned which was a great motivation and I lost a stone by xmas and felt brilliant. But then I let myself go a bit between xmas and Easter because the wedding and fittings seemed ages away.

    So now I am trying to get back to the xmas weight in time for my fitting in 5 weeks. I am currently 9 stone 10lb having lost a few lbs in last few weeks. So least I haven't put it all back on. Just finding it harder to get back into the same mindset I was in late last year. My ideal weight was 9 stone but i'm a bit more realistic now. I would be happy to get to 9 5 again. It's hard as I vividly remember being less than 8 stone, but that was 10 years ago! I don't really want to look like a 17 year old anymore!

    I've gone for lost weight successfully as I have lost over a stone in the last 3 months, it's taken 4 colonics and a good diet and exercise plan but I feel so much better about myself and up until this last weekend I was in a routine that I knew I'd be able to stick to and lose the 6lb that I still want to lose. My h2b had been away for a couple of weeks and got home Friday and obviously I have missed him terribly so somehow I have managed to give myself a groin strain since his return and can barely walk let alone stick to my exercise routine. I'm gutted, I hope I don't gain any weight while I'm resting it as I have a wedding to go to in 2 weeks and have bought a very expensive size 8 dress that I have to wear!!!

    It is a struggle sometimes and I don't know why we do it to ourselves as our h2bs love us and even our love handles.

    I can't wait until 29/06/2013
    The day I marry the man of my dreams!

    I didn't vote becuase I didn't go on a diet or lose any weight before my wedding. I had always planned to dye my dress so that I could wear it again and didn't want to have to diet every time I was going to wear it.
