Hello Ladies, I am just joining you now – Team 1. Bit of background: I’m 36, live in Spain (left Scotland 2 years ago) married with two toddlers aged 15m & 2 ½ yrs they keep me busy but not slim! I am a SAHM at the mo. I need to get some control back and lose the stone and a half I have accumulated over the last few years. I first joined Scottish Slimmers in 1997 and have been at Target twice but like a lot of us I yo-yo back and forth and that’s why I am back again. Looking forward to getting to know you all well!
My mini goal will be writing everything down every day until the end of the challenge – I only re-started on the PEP on Weds1st.

Found a pair of jeans in next today - size 12 - which i love!
Also bought new boots (which i couldnt get my calfs into last year!) and a couple of really nice dresses for winter and parties!
Spent a fortune but its so nice to be able to shop again and things fit!!

Hello
Not sure if this is right or not but i want to set my self another mini Goal
over 8 years ago i mange to get form 18stone to 14.9 stone in 8 months but that was due to me being very ill with my gall bladder and getting married to my soon to be cheating exhusband, anyway enough of that
I want to set a mini goal of 14.5 stone and obviously doing it the SS way, no time limt this weigt i would be less than i have been for a long time and less weight than i was when i was with Paul and it would be such an achievent, i am 16.12 just now which is lowest i ave been for a long time

I didn't make mine in time - gained the last two weeks
SO, my new mini goal is to lose the 2.5lbs i've gained in last 2 WI's by my hol in 3wks time......
After my hol, i will want to set a new mini-goal of some sort.......

My cropped trousers still don't fit but it's the lack of exercise and the bloating from the tablets more than anything. I'll probably fit into them and then not be able to wear them because of the weather.
elle
Sep 16 2010, 01:27 PM
I tried on my jeans this morning and while I still have a 'muffin top' I can actually breath wearing them
I also tried on a few dress that were in my wardrobe but too small and they all zip up and fit fine apart from one which is still a little bit on the tight side
Bookhunter - I'd say it was definitely the medication that is causing you problems. I was on antibiotics and painkiller for 6 months and I sts or lost a lb and then gained it again. Once you are feeling better I bet those lbs will start coming off easily again!
Well done everyone!! You are all doing great!
