Wahoo - I can fit back in my jeans!!!

[squeakypigs]

I was so happy the other week when I finally decided to weigh myself. Lost 10 pounds which is great as I haven't even been trying!!

Before I passed my driving test (19/01/05) I weighed 9 and a half stone and then went up to 10stone 10!!! I couldn't fit in any of my jeans at all. Couldn't even get them up my legs lol. I am now 10stone exactly and last night I tried on my jeans and guess what.... THEY FIT!!! lol Sounds silly but I am really happy!!

[kellyandpiggies]

wow! you must be so pleased! What's your secret, there must be something?!?! ;)

[kellyspiggies]

[Michele]

[kellyandpiggies]

What's it like to be that weight?..... hmmmmmm ??? It's always going to be a dream for me

[DebbieR]

Congratulations. Nothing can beat the feeling of getting back into your jeans. You must be very pleased with yourself. Well done :D

*dreams of being 10stone!*

heheheh
congrats on the weight loss its fab isnt it!!

I've got some tablets from the Dr to help me lose weight.. just dont want to take them yet cos they make your poo oily cos it stops your body absorbing 33% of the fat you take in.

not pleasant but does work!

[squeakypigs]

I actually was so depressed about it ages a go as I couldn't afford new jeans and didn't know whether to throw these jeans out.

My secret which I think made me lose it is....

Instead of drinking Coca Cola/Pepsi I have been drinking loads of apple juice.

I can't think how else I would have lost it!

Michele - Everyone at work said that I didn't look 10stone 10. My sis said same thing last night too and that if I was I must have hid it well lol. I am about 5ft 6/7 so I am quite tall but yay I am 10 stone now. I want to get to 9stone 6 and i'll be very very happy!!!

[purplegem1985]

yeah fizzy drinks do make you put on weight and stuff cos of all the sugars in them!

i got a year to lose weight!
i dont want to look like a christmas fairy walking down the isle

[kellyandpiggies]

water and the odd juice for me all the time - diabetic so cant really have fizzy drinks except for the lemonade in my martini! LOL

been on ever diet under the sun and still on one! don't suppose it helps when you cant move the lower half of your body! LOL ;)

[purplegem1985]

* cant?

[kellyandpiggies]

can't what? LOL

Have too much sugar.. so best not to have fizzy drinks at all

Move my lower half ... well I can and I cant! Cant weight bare, but can kinda move, have spasms too which look like I'm running on air! LOL

the best diet is the Atkins diet - no good for you veggies!
I am always doing on it to get back into jeans.
I lost a stone and a half in two months on it.
It really works. And I have named my darling guinea pig after Dr Atkins!

Hiya Everyone

I lost just over a stone at Slimming world last summer and i feel great now and i have managed to maintain it lol.

The big thing that helped me was also cutting out fizzy drinks and crisps ;D

Love

Slimming World is good, I lost 2 1/2 stone with it a few years back.

[cashmincal]

Well done you two!! ;D

[cavycrazy]

I tried Atkins too a few years ago and lost really well on it, but once started to eat carbs again the weight piled back on. Plus while I was doing Atkins it did make me feel unwell.

Turned to being a veggie last December and now I am trying the Slimming World diet doing green days. Hoping to loose some of these excess pounds before holiday in Sept.

Wish me luck ! ;D

[bevs]
