I'm joining Weight Watchers tonight

**Rasharoon** · 28-04-2009, 01:49 PM

The time has come to shift some extra weight so I've bought my monthly pass online and am off to Weight Watchers tonight. Dreading stepping on the scales. Thing is, I've no willpower or stamina so I will admit now to the fact I will find it hard. In an ideal world would like to lose about 2.5/3 stone.

I admire all you ladies on diets and wish you lots of luck and may you achieve your ideal weight.

Good luck

I did weight watchers just over a year ago & it really worked for me.

**ddw** · 28-04-2009, 01:54 PM

Good luck! I have good and bad weeks, I had fish and chips (just a small portion nicked from oh) and a roast beef dinner this week and some chocolates I found that someone had hidden in the drawer - oh and a ww chocolate eclair. And still lost a pound!?

It's taken me a while to get into it cos I love to eat sweet things but I do like to lose weight when I go to weigh in so maybe try a little bit harder.

Snap !! I am starting next Thursday, unfortunatly can't start this week due to prior commitments. Bit nervous to be honest, hoping i'm not the largest lady there

middle age spread has shifted into even more older age spread

Good luck, hope it goes well. You only need maximum willpower for the first week or two, then I find it gets easier, especially when you start seeing the results. Don't forget to measure yourself too, cos sometimes you may not lose weight but will lose inches iyswim

I will try and start this week.

Good luck

**Rasharoon** · 29-04-2009, 09:23 AM

Thanks all.
Well, I weighed in at 13st 1lb (would like to get to about 11st). I've been told I should aim to start off by losing 5%.
Spent a fortune buying a cook book, snack bars and some sweeties

- WW of course.
I cannot believe how many people attend though. The queue to be weighed just went on and on. There was one lady who had lost 50lb since August last year! Amazing.

Have to admit to not being overly hopeful though for next week. Only because I eat tea with the mindees so have a four week rolling menu so am all planned for this week - I can't afford to do a separate menu for us all. So I will cut back on all the sugary stuff I eat of an evening. I will redo my menu so that the mindees will be eating what I eat(!!). Oh, and I'm off on a Hen Night on Saturday - Chinese and lots of alcohol (going in a Hummer). If I can lose at least a 1lb I'll be happy.

Mind you, was speaking to my partner last night and he has noticed that I have been binging on chocolate for the last week or two so now that will now stop.

Will keep you informed of my progress. Good luck to all you others on diets.

You don't have to change your menu, but you can adjust it, so they are more healthier & lower in points (you also pad meals out with plenty of veg...a lot is also about portion size...feel free to pm me re reciepes.

Hope it is all going well.

I want to lose 2 stone. I would be really happy with just a stone, but I wanna go the whole hog if I am going to do it properly.

I have been eating mainly bran flakes and salads, but I love them both. I don't snack between meals and I make sur emy meals are not more than 400 to 500 cals each.

I lost 7 lbs in my first week, so that is half a stone! I haven't weighed myself this week, yet. As I don't wanna be dissapointed - at the weekend I was a bit naughty with what I ate!

Plus I am near my period, and I always put on about 4lbs until I have finished then it disappears. So I am gonna wait til the end of the week to weigh myself.
I hope I have lost at least 2lb this week. xx
