I was wondering whether to start a new weight loss thread because the pinned one doesnt seem to be used a lot anymore. I get married on the 29th March 2013 and really need to lose weight. I am 5 ft 10 and weigh 14 and a half stone. Since i have met my partner i have gone from a size ten to a size 16 and im miserable! Being tall the weight going on was less noticable so i was too lazy to care. My goal is to lose two stone by July and then start dress shopping. Would any of you girls like to join me??

Come on we can do it together

Ali xx

Hi,

I'm 5'1 and weigh 10st 13.  I lost a load of weight before Christmas and then ended up putting half of it back on.  A "wonderful" case of infected wisdom teeth has mad me lose 4lbs which is a great start.  I just need help keeping my motivation up to get to 10st preferably for my hen do at the end of August.

Im going to zumba tomorrow and try to do a davina dvd 3 times a week! Well done to you both on losing weight already! Just weighed myself properly and its worse than i thought. I'm 14lb 11! Im mortified!!!

I love this!! Im on day 7 of the dreaded diet, just cutting out all junk, cereak in the morning with skimmed milk, homemade sarnie for lunch & no carbs after lunch, 2.5 litres of water a day and trying to exercise 3 times a week, I can already feel myself deflating slightly after my chrimbo binging & feel so much better already!! Although I am weighing myslef tomorrow-hope I've lost at least a kilo (sorry I work in kilos/grams)

This is a great idea, I'm 5'9 and weigh 14.1 at the moment and I hate it! Getting married in Oct so only 9 months to go I really should be choosing my dress now but I'm finding it hard to face the shops with the weight I'm at.

Trying to be really good and follow Weight Watchers as I've got the books from a few years ago, I'd like to lose 2 stone at least but 3 would be amazing. I've started do Zumba on the Wii and Wii fit but do find it hard to motivate myself somedays which with a wedding to slim for you would think was easy.

Hopefully with some support on here we can all lose the weight we want and feel happy and slim on our Wedding days.

Good Luck ladies.

I am 5ft 6 and have been on Cambridge Diet, with time out for holidays and xmas, since July last year and lost 3 stone.

In fact I got on my Wii Fit yesterday for the first time in 400 days and it says I have lost 3stone 7 - so am very happy with that. 

I get married in 7 weeks and have 8 lbs I want to lose before that. I put 7lbs on over xmas and just shifted them, so as of today I am back on track. 


So - I am up for the challenge - 8lbs in 7 weeks, I can do that!

Only done Zumba on the Wii twice so far but it had me sweating within a few minutes so I was pleased with that, lost 2lb so far in 5 days so seems to be doing the trick! Give it a go its good fun too.

FutureMrsDoherty - skinny cow lollipops.  They have ones on sticks, are chocolatey and less than 100 cals.  Although in this horrible weather an options hot chocolate works well.  You still get a chocolatey treat but with way less calories.

Like many, I started my dreaded diet last tuesday so will weight myself tomorrow morning to find out my 1st week results. I am only 5ft 3 (more like 2) and I weight 13 stone! :-( Hoping to lose 1 and half stone bt would rather lose 2 stone. I am getting married 1st April 2013 so very close to you futuremrsdoherty. I am hoping to buy my dress in summer and my sister is getting married this april so am losing the weight for that as i am bridesmaid

My diet is losely based on the Special K diet I basically have a bowl for breakfast, grapes at 10.30, chicken salad or chicken brown pitta, more fruit as snack in afternoon then either a weight watchers meal or M&S healthy choice meal. I drink water or squash (no added sugar) during the day and then one glass of diet coke in the evening. SO pretty easy to follow. I go for long walks at weekend with H2B and swimming on wednesdays with the kids a school (Teacher). Hoping to start Zumba soon

:-)

im in! zumba on the wii is great i put on my heart rate monitor and in 40 mins i burned 600 cals!
i am 5'5" and weigh 10st 4lbs i would love to get to 9st7lb but thats unrealistic. last week i lost 2lbs so happy with that. i will be thrilled if i get to under 10st in all honesty. i am 3st 2lbs heavier than when me and h2b met but i never want to be that thin again, i had food issues.

Well ladies - I'm 5ft10 and currently almost 18st wearing size 18/20!! (not aided by 2.5 stone of boobage!)

I'm aiming to lose at least 4st in the next 12 months (in time for dress measuring) on Slimming World. Also using Just Dance on the Wii and running with my h2b. 

Hoping to be made redundant next week (weird I know) as I currently work in an office and spend 12 hours a day either sat at a desk or sat in the car which wears me out and has massively effected my health in a detrimental way - Since I relocated to this part of the world I've put 2st on in 12 months!! So hoping to get a fresh start over the next few months with a job much closer to home (I do a 100 mile round trip daily at the min!!)

Gets me down but my boy still loves me so that's a good start. 

I will have a slim wedding dress!!!!!!

I'm in. I'm 5'5'' and weigh 18st8lbs. Depressing.

I'm eight months away from my wedding, so in the next four months I would like to get to 16st. That's 36lbs to lose so it would have to be at just over 2lb/week so I'm probably dreaming!

But that's what I would like.

I went back to the gym for the first time this year today and feel really good for it. I met a friend for an aerobics class and had fun, although I didn't work anything like as hard as I would have done in the plain old gym. I just have to KEEP GOING!

Unfortunately my two gym friends are size 10/12s, so I feel very out of place with them!
