I did slimming world years ago when it was still red and green days not like the mix of days you can do today.
I lost 4 stone on it then and I've probably kept 3 of it off since then.
I'm a size size 16 currently but aiming to get to a size 12 before the year is out. I want to be healthier and feel sexier, I'm doing it for me and only me. My ex husband used to intimidate me and call me fat and shit, I used to let it get to me but in time turned it and used it as my strength....plus got rid of him...best waste lost!!
For me personally I can't follow a actual diet because I don't end up doing it right, sw & ww all claim to change your eating habits but I just ended up eating the same stuff all the time.
I now eat what I want within reason and take the dog on long walks to help keep me active.

I can but try and try and try

He really was with some things proper made me lose my confidence but I defiantly have turned that around.

Yeah I'm new to the site but what I like about this site that everyone is so supportive and chatty and not rude at all.
That's why I've been worried about going to a club because in my head everyone that's going to be there are all slim, sexy. Stupid I know x

I have said in various places I have lost 3 stone in weight over the last couple of years not following any slimming plans or programmes just by cutting down on the things I love and working I don't do gyms or exercising ...i did it for me no one else ...

About 6 years ago I had steadily crept up to 19.5 stone. I was always tired, slept on the sofa when I got home, snored like a pig and developed sleep apnoea.
Softly softly programmes don't work for me so I decided to go the whole hog and joined Lighter Life. I lost 5 stone in around 8 months and bottomed out at 14.5 stone. My energy level went through the roof, I returned to a really positive mental attitude, dealt great and could fit in a Medium shirt. I can now fit in my leathers that I wore 40 years ago!! I eventually bounced back to 15.5 stone where I am now. I had a great verification last week on another well known site where I was described very kindly as having "the energy of a 20 year old and a very quick recovery time"
Needless to say I'm very happy where I am, and hell will freeze over before that weight goes back on...

Well done you not sure I could do the lighter life, think I'd miss chewing as that's just a shake/water diet isn't it.

It may have changed now, but when I did it it was just soups and shakes for the first week, after that you were allowed bars. But the weight falls off you so fast that you get addicted to the programme, and after the carb withdrawal which takes about a week you tend to lose interest in eating...

Jeez where do I even start with this one ....

I have tried every single weight loss organisation and diet going - you name it I tried it

WW
SW
Cambridge diet
Adkins
Curves .... fabulous highly recommend
Chemical diet
Cabbage diet .... I know I know I can hear the comments

I've always was a short curvy busty girl even at my fitest

I get usually comments
Pretty girl shame bout the figure
Oh you carry your weight well
You name it I've had it even - oh I need to cross fuck a fat gal off my fucket list

I've lost weight put it on etc. Etc
Long story short im probably one biggest girls about - a whole long story how I've got to this point ... the only thing I'd say to that is never presume to why people , it's not necessarily about being lazy

Definitely on a mission to loose weight , so I'm interested to hear who is using what

Yip all the fears the girls the girls have spoken to , I can totally relate

I've exchanged a few pms with @AutumnH ... she gave me a wonderful honest frank advice n spoke openly about her experience going to a club
Highly recommend talking to her

But yes big small tall short fat slim ....are we ever 100% happy .

Whoop whoop and hats off to those who have kept it off

Good luck to those who are still in their journey
