Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / November 2003Progress report
Well, another Monday, another weigh day. Two more pounds gone.....2 stone lost in 11 weeks :) I gave most of my clothes to a local charity shop this weekend - they were hanging off me. I've gone from a UK size 24 (is it *up* one size for the US version or down one??) to almost nearly a UK size 18. I went shopping this weekend for a couple of shirts to wear at work and I tried on a size 18 suit in a "normal" shop - not a plus size shop - and it almost fit :) Woo. The average size for women in the UK is 16, my god, I'm nearly average...... Cellach (who is working on being way more than average!) 274/246/224(mini goal) That is great, Cellach!

Congrats! Thanks Perple! I was starting to worry that perhaps the motivation would have waned by now - but every time the numbers go down it gets another boost. I'm lucky so far that I haven't gained anything and even my "stalls" have only lasted a week - I know it can only get harder as I get nearer to goal and start to slow down. But there's no way I plan to sabotage all the work so far. Cellach That is a good perspective to keep... I hope it works for me as well. -- Email me at: perpleglow(AT)comcast.net > >From: "Perple Gyrl" perpleglow@comcast.net > >Date: 24/11/2003 14:44 GMT Standard Time [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Cellach Outstanding Cellach. 2 lbs a week, the perfect weight loss rate. i > Well, another Monday, another weigh day. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > Cellach (who is working on being way more than average!) > 274/246/224(mini goal) >From: Ignoramus3100 ignoramus3100@NOSPAM.3100.invalid >Date: 24/11/2003 20:32 GMT Standard Time >Message-id: <bptpth$1f8$1@pita.alt.net> > >Outstanding Cellach. 2 lbs a week, the >perfect weight loss rate. <grins> Perfect?

You're doing great. Doesn't it feel great to be able to get into smaller sizes. Beverly >From: "Beverly" bowens@home.woh.rr.com >Date: 25/11/2003 01:18 GMT >Congratulations! You're doing great.

I can't wait until I can go shopping for clothes anywhere - not just specialist shops. Then the only problem I will have is my height (6'0) not my weight - and that isn't a problem :) Cellach Congratulations Cellach, It sounds like your well on your way to your goal. Keep up the good work.

Cellach >Well, another Monday, another weigh day. > [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] >Cellach (who is working on being way more than average!) >274/246/224(mini goal) Congratulations Cellach, you're doing really well. You're certainly losing at a faster rate than I did on the Slimming World programme. I lost 25 lbs over 20 weeks, which for me was a bit disappointing and less than I would normally expect to lose. I'm no longer going to classes (yes, I do remember that you were doing it on your own, and I'm not really a class person either) and I've been trying to go back to eating around 1500 a day, combining this with some of the things I've learned from Slimming World, which I still think is a healthy and sensible way of eating. I think it would make a lovely maintenance programme so may go back to it later:) Good news for you on the sizes - there are advantages to being tall, I have to weigh a lot less than you to get to size 16, but I have recently done so (some of my size 16s are getting a bit tight lately, but I intend that to be only temporary <G> janice >From: janice@london.uk (janice) >Date: 25/11/2003 18:46 GMT >Congratulations Cellach, you're doing really well. >You're certainly losing at a faster rate than I did on the Slimming [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >but I intend that to be only temporary <G> >janice Thanks Janice :) I'm finding it such an easy program to follow - reflected in the results I think. I use about a tenth of my "Sin" allowance - I'm just finding I don't actually want/need the extra food. The friend I borrowed some of the books from is now jealous that I've lost 2 stone and has been inspired to start again (she lost 2 1/2 stone last year then put some back on when she stopped the WOE). So now I have company, which will be great. Cellach |
