Nope, you're definately not the only one. I really could do with losing weight, but I'm so addicted to chocolate, I dont think its going to happen any time soon!!!

Hi all

Sorry to barge in but I have been on WeightWatchers since April 07 and cannot recommend it enough. I have lost 4 st 10 lbs to date and have another 1 st 6 to lose before my wedding day in April this year. Please feel free to check out my website, www.freewebs.com/helensweightloss for some inspiration. There are several photos on there as well, showing my loss.

Hope it encourages you all!

Helen x

I need to lose weight too, preferably before I go to Oz in Aug, but I dont eat veg or much fruit.
Im a really fussy eater, how am I going to do it?
Any suggestions?

Drink loads of water, at least 2 litres (8 glasses) a day and move more - take the stairs instead of the lift, park a little further away in Tesco etc etc. All the little things definitely add up x

I know I should do the water thing, I dont drink anywhere near enough Embarassed

cant do the stairs thing when out as I have the pushchair with me most of the time BUT as soon as this God awful weather calms down I WILL start walking the girls to school, you can all quote me on that, lol
