Hi Tinky

How are you? I hope you had a good Christmas.

I haven't tried to lose weight before because I haven't needed to, but comfort eating has been going on due to upsets over recent times and I am feeling somewhat uncomfortable!

Any tips for a first timer gratefully received.

I will try again this year, (but starting New Years Day). OH bought me a Body Sculpture Power Machine for Christmas, so that should help wobble the fat away without too much effort but a little less eating.

Got to get at least half stone off for March, going to Cuba!!!

Hi everyone

Room for another? I really must get a grip next year - I have sooo much to lose!

I started doing a couple of zumba classes a week a few months ago but they haven't been running since the freeze started. So once the children go back to school next week I am going to start a diet and exercise regime - including going back to zumba.

Good luck for next week x

Hi Tinky,

Count me in:)


I have put on nearly a stone since August on top of the stone that has been lurking about for the last 12 years from giving birth to last child.

I stood on the scales last night at slimming club and have started diet today.

Its great to have a bit of support for each other on line.

Managed to lose a stone over the last year but could do with losing another 1 or 2 stone. DIdn't eat much this Christmas as it was put on hold to go down to my mother in law who has just come out of hospital.

Found that swimming has helped and worked up to 1 km but this has been pockled with two recent chest infections.

My downfall is usually chocolate, but haven't bought any for months

Hi Maralyn,

one of the members went on an all inclusive over Christmas for a week and weighed in at class last night and lost 3lbs

She said she ate the tree meals provided but nothing inbetween, and she had alcohol.

I think its the inbetween snacks which cause problems.

Have a great holiday
