Wow that's amazing!!! Congratulations to you! Adding!

I agree with the above, no one's advice is better than your doctor's. Looking at it from a goal setting perspective, I found life coaching and NLP extremely helpful in sorting out my own head during some rather dark times. I would recommend 'Be Your Own Life Coach' by Fiona Harrold to anyone.

Me too! Added!

Thanks :) Very early days but I am really not missing it and am swapping each ciggie for a chewing gum and glass of water.

After my first Body Combat class today I am going to go with Body Combat!!!!

I got up at 7am and went to my first ever Aerobics class. I also quit smoking today.

I have a facebook album of all the pictures and saying that motivate me - and this is now number 1!

Hahaha thanks Guys and Girls, Perhaps a cull of my friends is in order in the near future. C'est la vie

Incredible!!!! Obviously losing the weight and feeling great is reward enough but have you made any special plans to reward/treat yourself???

Will do, cheers hun

But I am now as I spoke to the GP, she agrees the only option is surgery and when I hit my ideal weight we are going for it. Drastic…

I actually agree, and I am overweight and come from a family of overweight feeders. I was 'rewarded' with food as a kid and I do think habits and tastes carry over and it's hard to re-train yourself to like other things. That being said it can be done if you want it enough :)

I'm only dinky... 5'3. I'm not really sure to be honest but it surely can't hurt? I was told by a Dr that its better to lose weight young as you have better collagen production levels so it's more likely to tone up than if you were a lot older. Mine is particularly bad, I look like I have had three 3-sections and my arms…

I got big at the age from around 10 years old and ended up at 254, have lost 44 of that but even with lots (and lots and lots) of weight to go I have lots of sagging skin - to the point where I have taken a trip to a cosmetic surgeon to discuss it. I have stretch marks but they are old and silvery as they were from when I…

I'm the same, I done 45 minutes of Aqua Zumba and 45 minutes of body combat which is like an aerobic martial art today and I can't find them in the database so have had to use a 'similiar' type of exercise but am after something more specific if possible? Any ideas anyone? Cheers,
