Fantastic Poohbear.[clap][clap]
I haven't thought about how much I want to lose, I am just aiming for 1 stone to start. If I think about how much I need to lose altogether it seems so far off. So 1 stone at a time. I'm only 5ft 2ins and have no idea how much I should weigh.
Finding it OK so far and already feel better.
For my height most of the slimming thingys say I should weigh between 8-9st. When I was just under nine stone (a long time ago) everyone kept asking me if I was ill as I looked so gaunt. The weight I feel most comfortable at is around 9stone 3lb.
I think you have to find your own happy medium and make each step a small one.
Half a stone targets at a time are good, as this does not sound unreachable. Unlike saying "I must lose three stone" which at the start of your healthy eating plan (don't like the word DIET) sounds impossible, so reaching your first half a stone target
gives you the incentive to keep going.
Plus worrying about not being packed for tomorrow, I've just realised I should not be sitting here!!!![msnscared][msneek]
Good luck all[msnwink]

How much have we all got to lose?? Don't worry if you don't want to say...............
I am 5' 7" tall and I want to lose 1 1/2 - 2 stone. That would make me the correct weight for my height.
Weigh in for me is Monday I just really hope I have lost a couple of lbs this week???[msneek][msnscared]

Oh forgot to say my start weight was 12 stone 4 lbs, only weighed 11 stone 6lbs when we got back from Florida last August!!! WW say I should be 10 sone 3lbs, I was under that 10 years ago in fact I got down to 9 stone 8lbs, if I could get to 10 stone it would be fantastic!!! Got six months, so thats 2lbs a week = 28lbs plus the 3lbs already lost and whatever I have lost this week, so I could be 10 stone by the time I go!!!![msnwink]
