So, I've been trying to lose weight for some time now, but recently I've really pushed myself into getting serious about it. Last Saturday, I stepped on a scale for the first time in quite awhile. to see that I'm 14 stone 10, which, I'm not happy with what-so-ever. I really started to have a long hard think, and decided to really go for it this time, to go on a 'diet' that I'd not give up with this time, really go for it.

Today, being one week on from when this all started, I've lost 8 pounds! I can't say that I've ever lost 8 pounds, let alone 8 pounds in a single week! I know I've got a way to go still, but I'm honestly ready for it, excited to continue and be happier with my weight.

Just thought I'd share that, as I myself like reading peoples happy first weigh-ins. :)

    that's a great start, well done. I did the same my first week and thought the scales were wrong. Stick with it and you can do it.

    Thanks very much all, I really appreciate it.
    Wonderful!! Are you counting calories?

    Yes I am, coming on here every time I've eaten something to log it. Makes it so much easier to know what I should really be eating.
