WI RESULT

Well i really cannot believe it. I have lost again not a daft half pound as used to but a full 2lbs!!. I am totally shocked. I had to hold back my tears on scales. As am no longer 20 stone or am i 19 stone or am i 18 stone i am now 17.13stone am finally in the 17's!!!.
It was totally unexpected to get into the 17's this quick since xmas. Over 3 weeks i have lost 7lbs. I never normally have such a big weight loss each week. I honestly think its the exercise and am drinking so much water (and the running to the loo every 5mins prob helps too).
Also keeping track and this block and the 16stone wanderer club helps too as dont want to let myself down.
I gave my leader the address for my blog and she was telling the class about it today. Hopefully a few of them will do it too cause i think it totally helps.
She said she is going to get me in the paper when i get to goal. I really wana do it and i feel i will get to goal. O and she said she wants her name mentioned so people will travel far and wide to go to her class (she is a diamond leader too). Her names LORNA PARKR and works in the County durham area. I go to Peterlee class if anyone knows where it is.
So now I only have 3lbs to lose 3stone and 13lbs till get to 50lbs and get my 1st certificate.
So hopefully another loss next week.
Take care everyone xxx

wi results

well after almost killing myself to get to ww (slipping on the ice a few times)to stop i had to take my trainers off and walk in socks in freezing wet ice!!. i can laugh now but was crying thought wud break my neck. even tried ringing my hubby to come out of work and save me but u cudnt answer.
Well anyway i lost 2.5lbs!!. total lost of 37lbs. Am now 18stone 1lb sooo close to 17stone. I couldnt honestly be happier if won the lotto.Considering I was almost 21stone.
I feel so much fitter and active. To me i feel 10stone now and i know people will look at me and see a fat girl but inside i know i will not be anymore.
I couldnt ask for a better leader too. She made me tell the class today my loss and how much i lost althogether. everyone gasped which felt amazing god am guna cry (with happiness). leader said she so proud of me nobody used to say they proud of me over weight before used always be ashamed of me.
Hubby is great too so supportive. When i lie down i can even feel my ribs now for me thats amazing.
And i am signing up for race of life in june. always wanted to do this but always scared.but i walked home from work this week was 3miles and felt great.

my mini goal is to get into the 17 stone range by 2 weeks and to be at 50lbs loss by end of march.
o also have joined 16 stone wanderer on ww site board so thats great incentive too.
feel like i won an oscar haha

weigh in result after xmas

well finally faced the scales this week was so scared and worried. lost 2.5lbs this week. at 1st i was disappointed but my leader made me see sense and said was brilliant i lost 35lb so far.
she asked me to tell the class how i did and then she said i wasnt happy with that. she said to the newbies thats wot happens when we start losing we want more lol.she told class how much i lost so far and i got some gasps which was great.
have also noticed from my chart my bmi is no longer in the 50 zone so thats gud. and my mini goal is to get to 50lbs by easter so another 15lbs i think is achievable.
was at hospital today for check up and news wasnt as gud as i hoped for. As am still getting headaches the doc is talking about replacing the shunt in my head(a tube which releases fluid from my brain). there is no way i am agreeing to have another operation unless its a matter of life or death. have had 11 operations in past few years.
asked him if i get to 9stone will he take out the shunt but he said thats not an option be too dangerous and even if i get to goal he not sure if will help my condition. he told me that if u lose 2lb in weight is the equivelant of using up 7,000 calories and that really i shud be looking at 5yrs to lose my weight as bad for me. laughed and him and told him no chance i be there next year. he said i am ambitious. I will totally show him!!!
my mates coming down tomor to do the workout dvd hope she doesnt laugh at how red i go!!

i just wana get back on track and want to start losing weight in bigger amounts. dont feel its proper amount 32lbs since june 08.
so my goals this week is

But xmas crept up so am not dieting for about 3 weeks. i want to feel healthy and me again. going back to class tues and i will do this i know i can.


never had a blog before so if its crap bear with me lol!!
