    Well done Carol.............7 lbs in 2 weeks............Thats 1 stone a month....Pretty impressive that.............keeping going...

    When I started MTX I lost 2 stone in 2 1/2 weeks.........constant sickness... Lost another 9 lbs in next month...

    I'm still 'cuddly' though.......My weights fine........its my height I suffer with....If I was 7 foot 3 I'd be ideal weight..........so I'm just going to grow.......

    I've spent all my adult life trying to 'watch' my weight.........Its a hard job...............had succeses and failures, but never really managed to get 'there'.

    As long as we're 'comfortable' with ourselves.......I guess thats all that matters................

    Going by 'Body Mass Index' I've been Obese for many years.........now I'm 'only' Overweight...........so that must be success eh???

    Luv and cuddly hugs...............Rob x

    Hi valval
    well done.
    I went to the dietition today. My OH came in with me only because he likes her and wanted to see her.

    Anyway it was good to talk it all through together. it's important to him aswell as the does the cooking sometimes.

    Well, I'm 5.3 and weigh 16.2. terrible. badly obese.
    It is going to be so, so difficult especially with my complex medical probs and my medication.

    I want to try swimming again, but anxious about picking up infections such as conjuntivitis and ear infections. Have this punctured eardrum whatever right ear and badly block other ear,.
    Can't walk far because of bad hips.
    Going to try though
    Will use exercise ball and weights a bit more.
    Starting wrong time of the year, but |I want to lose at least 2 stone by next April

    Joy

    Well it's all gone wrong this week guys. I've put on 2.25lb :shock:
    I'm not quite sure how though because i have managed to do a full 40hr week at work this week and it has made me so tired that all i have been doing is working and sleeping! I don't eat anything at work and i haven't had a cooked dinner in the evening all week either as i have been going to bed so early. All week i've had about 4 packets of crisps (which i know are naughty) and been drinking tea so don't know how i've managed to put on weight. Maybe it's because i haven't been eating :?:

    Anyway, i'm not down about it, it just says 'must try harder' on my report card :roll:

    If it makes you feel better Carol I have put on 9lbs. I dont seem to be eating any more any less but have been taking it reasonably easy cos of pain .Still ironing sitting down though.
    I am out partying on Saturday 21st so really wanted to look my best
    so now I will be worrying all week about what to wear(if anything still fits)!
    Take care
