im 5ft4.5 .....my start weight was 250lbs ... im currently 190lbs with 50lbs left to lose but il share my progress so far Start pic : me at my dress fitting for my big sisters wedding 195lbs (ish) lol : one of my comparison pics, in the grey i was around 210lbs and inthe black fancy dress i was around 195lbs :…

I feel the bemefits far more than see them, my health is so much better already x

Thank you xx

Thank u for fixiing my pics :)

Thank you :) and I loved my bridesmaid dress I thought it was pretty too xx

are u using a mobile or internet tablet? sometimes it doesnt work for me if im using my phone or ipad. besides it cut half the pic off so your not missing much lol x

oh no its cut my pic off ... how do i shrink it so it all fits?

we do have a womens only area of the gym (its like a small room with one of every machine in there and then some cardio machines) that too has a 'girlie' section with handweights. so do you think il be alright in there until i build up my confidence?

Bump to read later really interested in this ... just need to do the food shop 1st lol

sorry i ment to add in there that i do log alcohol ... i very rarely drink so those calories are always accounted for. I guess the main thing i dont log is tea/coffee or diet drinks (although i rarely drink pop too) hmmm guess i should start logging them lol

i started at 250lbs im now 191lbs ... no pics yet as im not ready to share them (guess ive not accepted that yet, im working on it) still got another 50lbs to go (a LONG way) but i take it in 10lb incriments and slowly im getting there Good luck :D

when i 1st started out i was 249lbs - i am now 191lbs, 58lbs down and i was just as scared as you about lose skin. Again it depends on the person but im finding i have a little lose skin but working on strength training is tightning it right back up! i dont have any pics to show but can tell you its hard work but so worth…

OMG how gorgeous! i have a 9 month old Lhasa Apso and hes is my best pal ever! he too comes every were with me apart from work and bed and for such a little dog he comes running/walking with me and loves every minute! If i new how to post pics i would show you all him :)

ok firstly im not one for molly coddling so im sorry if this sounds a bit harsh but sometimes tough love is needed. *your parents are not to blame for your weight gain. however long you still believe this you will keep yo yo-ing. you need to take responsibility as this is YOUR body no one elses. Once you accept this you…

Not really much of an answer but i would love to hear some more ideas. Me and my other half 'get by' but fell into the stupidity of using pay day loans when we were so broke :( im hoping to get out of that cycle this month and really work hard to make our wages last a full month. Im my own worst enemy in some respects…

I have actually done this 3 day diet and i dropped 9lbs BUT gained 2 back. So i guess i lost 7lbs for good. Aparently its the chemical balances in the food that make the weight drop. I do how ever think that these sort of diets should never be used on a permanant basis, i used it 3 days before my sisters wedding for that…

I would love a personal trainer but i just cannot afford it :( Youve all gave some really good advice i guess its just finding out what works for my body. Thanks all x

agreed you need to make the time to exercise ... if you really want to you will find the time .. home dvd's are great for exercising around times that suit you. Personally im better in a gym but its what ever works for you :)

Sorry whats HIIT sessions? Sorry for all the questions i just want to get it right and right for me x

How do I do sprints with my dog? Sorry to sound dim xx

Do for eg if my gym seshion is 90 mins I should do 45 mins my usual treadmill and cross trainer and the other 45 on strength training? I'm not kean on dvds as I find I don't do them at home, I'm better in a gym. Will definately look into free weights/getting help at the gym thanks guys :-)

I already walk him between 2 and 3 miles a day xx

Anyone?

Ok I'm a little worried now. We were out 30 mins and I jog really slow more like a fast walk. My little guy was amazing and I walked half tne way too to make sure I didn't over work him. When he tired we had a little break or slowed down, will I have hurt it him that's the last thing I want to do. I wiill call my vet…

Thanks everyone :-) I feel better knowing I won't hurt him. Xx
