On Tuesday I am going to Slimming World. I am posting it here so that I don't make excuses like last week. ( And the week before that etc).

Last year I lost a stone and a half, on my own. It was so lovely to see a new number come up on the scales. But I have put it back on. sad
I am nearly at my heaviest weight ever.

I would like to lose a stone by November. Ok I would really like a stone and a half. Why November? A friend and I have booked a yoga retreat...for beginners.. and at the moment my tummy has a nasty habit of getting in the way.

So that's it. I am going to do it. Anyone who wants to start with me would be very welcome. Mutual support. Wish me luck.

I am planning to go on Wednesday! Like you I was going to go last week but made an excuse (I had a busy day and only had 2 hours sleep the previous night so was too tired). Having posted this I now HAVE to go! Good luck to you.

I think you need to post your weight every month so that we can all cheer you on! Good luck!

yes every good wish for your efforts. I am a recurrent SW attender. I go for a few months then go out on my own for a few then if its creeping back I go again. I'm trying more exercise and SW healthy eating this time to get a bit trimmer by my grandsons wedding at the end of November. BUT I Must stop drinking wine and regard it as juts a glass of sugar!! grin
