There's a slim person SOMEWHERE inside me??

  • Hello,

    I've just joined. In 2004 I lost 4 and a half stone for my wedding and I had such an amazing body (probably due to the stress of the wedding), I even did some modelling.

    But in the past few years have put it all back on and more and am a UK size 20/22 :-(

    I'm looking forward to starting a new postive aproach and making friends with people in similar positions.

    Lots of love, sarah xxx

  • Hi SARAH . . . good girl, you've definitely come to the right place for lots of support while you travel the long and often bumpy road to better health and fitness . . . the slim you will be emerging again very soon.
  • Welcome, Sarah!
    Please keep posting! We'll whip you back into shape in no time.
  • hi Sarah -- welcome! I've never been able to remember how stones convert to pounds. Also on the UK theme, do you watch "Ab Fab"? I have been known to roll on the floor in response to that show.

    Edina's mother: "Just the one, dear?"

  • Hi, Sarah! You're gonna love it! Best of luck!
  • Welcome, and Anita, that's a funny joke. Thanks, I needed that today!
  • Welcome!!!
  • Hi Sarah,
    Wish you well! I know what you mean about the slim person--I don't have an image of myself that mirrors how big I really am. So I look in the mirror and think, who is THAT? Where's the one I think I am? It's a lot of hard work but we can do it with support!

  • Hello Sarah

    I'm from the UK too. I'm a size 16-18, but that still puts me in the obese category for my height. I lost most of it a couple of years ago, then put it all back on too

    Anita - I loved AbFab too! Also 1 stone is 14lbs
