Yesterday, apart from 5 Christmas chocolates, I did not graze all day. By the end of the evening I felt quite hungry. I'm a bit of a fussy eater but any suggestions for late night nibbles? Our main meal is in the evening. Margaret |

Just before Christmas I joined slimming world and although i was doing well I have gone off the rails since Christmas and need to get back on it which I am doing. My reason for losing weight apart from my health is that its affects my fertility, hubby and I have been together 18 years and I'm now 37 and we havent had children. So losing weight is the first step in potentially needing IVF! I feel very pathetic for not getting on it sooner but i'm doing it now and that's what counts. My goal to start with is to lose 4 stone and I will use my weighs in with SW to let you know how I get on! We can do it! Claire |

Sorry for your shock Pam - I know how you feel and so will most of us, I reckon - but it will get better with all of us supporting each other. I'm going to weigh myself tomorrow morning - perhaps I will be fractionally light than at the weekend but that's not really important. My first real target is next Wednesday - hope I might lose 2 lbs, this being the first week. I honestly have looked of ra "before" photo - I found one but now my iPhoto refuses to let me send it anywhere - my DS is going to try to sort it out tomorrow - I promise to send it as soon as I can - it isn't a happy sight!!!! Good luck to everyone Winnie |

You certainly have a wonderful reason to lose weight - I'm sure we will all be right behind you. NEVER feel pathetic, as you say - no one who hasn't been there in terms of losing weight can really understand how it can be so hard to cope with - but all of us here know exactly what it is all about. Good luck to all of us - and never forget to shout very loudly when you need some support - that's the way to avoid going of the rails. Winnie |
