    I had my last weighin of 2011 and came in at 13st 1, meaning I actually lost 2lb over Christmas! I've lost 12lb so far and have a lot more to go! 2011 WILL be my last 'fat' year, I cant wait to lose enough to try my size 14 wedding dress on and actually have it fit :D, how is everyone else feeling about their diets as they finish 2011 and get ready to start a new year?

    Well done, :D i lost 2lb over xmas as well, so well done to us both.
    I am now weighing in at 11.4..... a great loss from my 12.12 weight at the beginning of october.
    I am feeling slimmer and healthier and cant wait to try my new slim line dress on when it arrives, i sent off my measurements minus 2-3 inches.
    Im feeling good, and looking forward to loosing a lot more before 24th march :D

    I want to lose 11lb and to tone up. I'm feeling quite positive about it, but I am a binge eater so I can't be trusted to have anything slightly tempting in the house lol

    Stormie i love slimming world, and there is no reason why y67ou wouldnt loose 4 stone in that time if you follow the plan. I recommend the food diary, its effort but worth it at keeping an eye on those sneaky syns, and to be sure to measure your healthy extras as it does sneak up on you.
    I lost 1.5 stone in 9 weeks, and am still going so the plan works. Good luck to you x

    I will be increasing my body magic this year, longer walks with the dog on my days off, get the wii set up again for more games of bowling and tennis with the kids. I do a lot of walking and stairs at work so not too worried at all about work days its my days off i get lazy and i dont want to feel pressured to do exercise as i wont keep it up, just more active fun with my family and less movie time :D

    Ooh I love this thread...just what I need to restart my motivation.

    I've been on WW for 2 years now (on and off) lost (and kept off) 2 stone but keep hovering around the 12st mark. Have zero motivation to get back on track and haven't been weighed since 5th December as couldn't get to class (eek) - Dreading the 3rd of Jan when I'm back but hey ho I'll get there.

    Aiming to lose another stone before the wedding as even though I'm 12st I have huge boobs that we have come to the conclusion add on more weight as I'm only a size 12 on the bottom and 14/16 on top. My friend is a size 18 and only weighs 12 & 1/2 stone. My collarbones are already too sticky out and I can feel my hip bones really badly so don't want to go too skinny for the wedding.

    We need to keep this thread going to spur each other on and update our weekly weight loss.!!

    Yeah mine is lace up back too but I tried on a size 14 dress and it didn't quite fit but my measurements came out as a size 22. Why do the wedding dress sizes go so massive when you're trying to get into the smallest size possible lol.

    It doesn't bother me though as I'll still look great in it whatever size it is (ha ha)

    Oh god I know! You'd think that as the point of the dress is to make the bride feel amazing they would make the sizes a bit kinder, a street 14 would be labelled 12 ect.... I hate having to order a 16 when its really a 14 as they are made small :(

    My diet starts Monday!! I thought there is no point saying I'll start tomorrow as we're not having a big night tonight as h2b is working at 5am tomorrow, so we'll have a big roast dinner and champagne when he comes home tomorrow.

    But I will definitely start on Monday! I'll then have 6 months to go so it really is time to take it seriously. I moved to France 6 months ago to live with h2b and gave up my gym membership back home and haven't really done much exercise since. He wants to lose some weight too so we're going to take up running and maybe buy bikes too, and if I can find a decent gym out here that's not too expensive I may join one too. I've also got some fitness games for the xbox kinect so I need to get back to using that!

    A few years ago me and my sister did slimming world and both lost about 2 stone. I've put a fair bit of this back on (not sure how much, not weighed myself for a month!) and am thinking about joining SW online as I can't go to meetings etc out here. I'm aiming to lose about 2 stone again, which is doable with an average of just over a pound a week.

    Good luck everyone!

    I have been good and managed to stay on plan all over xmas, i used flexible syns xmas day and last night..... last week i still managed to have a loss so am hoping to have done as well this week when i weigh on tuesday. I feel fairly confident that i have managed to remain in control and still have a fantastic festive season, and h2b making me slimming world cheesecake helped enormously lol.
    I have had a slimming worl english breakfast this morning to cure the slight traces of hangover from a few sambuccas to many last night :D

    I can live without take away but my weakens is chocolate. I can't diet knowing there is chocolate in the house. I was 11st 9 a week before christmas so I have put about the same on.

    I had weetabix and banana for breaky and a weight watchers tuna mayo sandwhich. Feeling a bit peckish now so will have a few grapes.
