Stef I agree with what you said esoecially the talking to each other bit. I really think if we stick at this we will get there, I know I am not alone.

So I'm officially morbidly obese when I think of that I imagine a huge huge person probably in usa on a talk show who before they got to the studio hadn't come out of their house for 10 years as they cant fit through the door! Now I know I am F A T but I can walk quite far and run up stairs but am still morbidly obese like I am about to drop dead at any minute strange my doctor has never even mentioned my weight must look healthier than I am officially!!

I was told I wass morbidly obese last year (still am I think!) before I had an op, it did make me get down to it but it is the rest of the weight that is going to be hard, the op is over, I just want to show them a big difference when I go back to the hospital in MaY.

Well, knowing I am officially Obese - class 1 has certainly made me sit up and take notice. I've had a brill day today on the SW diet and tonight is my oficial blow out night, its what I save for but, I am going very carefully and trying to take it easy with the drink. The Buddy thingy has bleeped at me so I'm into Bonus exercise and not doing too bad at all, I just hope this B***** diet works. Didn't have a drink last night (never been known) so I am SERIOUS this time!!

BPB - got the tape, started doing it, got to aerobics 3 and the 'phne range. The moves are very similar to the one I have but it is much faster - I look forward to doing it all Phew!!
(that's my new rebounding tape, for anyone who doesn't know)

Well - I just tried to work out the figures for this week, but too many people have stopped posting theirs gains or losses to make sense of it all... and, of course, we have had a few people joining - and some of them have posted losses, but haven't told me what their goal losses are... so... this thread doesn't really seem like such a good idea after all.

Congratulations to our losers:

Carol : -1lb
Veggie: -2lbs
ChiChi: -4lbs
TQ: -2.75lbs

and commiserations to the people who gained - we ALL know how disheartening that can be....

and I managed to lose 2lbs this week as well.

My stats:

(Original start weight April 01: 16st 3lbs)
Start Weight this time (02 Jan 02): 14st 10lbs
Current Weight: 13st 11lbs
Target Weight: 10st 7lbs
Total lost since 02/01: 13lbs
Remainder to be lost: 3st 4lbs
Current BMI: 30.2
Loss this week: 2lbs

Sarah well done on the 2lbs. You are doing amazingly you seem to really watch what you eat & then walk for miles with your dog across the moors everyday.

Keep going your consistancy is turning you into a role model for the rest of us.

Well done again

Carol

I agree with BPB and Sal, congrats Sarah. You are fast becoming the UK3fc role model and certainly an inspiration.

I lost a pound. The thread is a good idea Sarah so stop thinking it isn't well done on your loss

<blush> I don't know what to say.... very unusual for me!

How about we keep the thread on and keep posting our losses each week, perhaps with our stats - just to keep ourselves on our toes.... and I'll do a sort of summary each week - how's that????????

There are so many people who don't visit here any more or just pop back every now and again. Its always lovely to see them when they do visit - but for a maths phobic like me it makes it nearly impossible.

I bet I have a gain next week now you lot have said all those nice things!

Of course the thread is staying I need it even if its just me posting I need the support a lot dont desert me Im desperate!!!! Im morbidly obese you know I need help!!!!

Veggie - I'm not going anywhere - nor is the thread - I need the help as well.

I need this thread - I need to see how I'm doing in black & white in front of me every week.

I will be posting a gain this week, but won't screw our stats too much as I aim to lose whatever I gain in the next few weeks. Together we can do, alone .... I would have fallen by now & not got back up.

Carol

I think Im in a class of my own
