Hi all
Well, after doing WW on and off for most of this year and having lost 1 and a half stone I have decided to join SW online as I think I need a change.
I did try SW before a few years ago and actually gained, but I think I was taking the 'eat as much free foods as you like' a bit far!
A bit of background - I used to weight 23 stones, I followed WW for around 3 and a half years and got to my goal of 12st 9lbs (I'm 5'10"). Trouble was once I got there I only stayed there for about 6 months before I started to regain the weight as I stopped maintaining. I think WW doesn't really train you to readjust your eating for life. So now I am back up to around 20st (not sure exactly as I haven't weighed in for 2 weeks and have eaten loads over xmas). I am going to start on the 6th Jan. I would like to start sooner, but we have Xmas mark 2 next mon to wed at my inlaws :smiley522:
I'm going to sign up before then though so I can spend time getting to know the plan and do my shopping to get everything in that I need. I can't join a group as I work shifts so getting to a regular meeting is impossible.
Looking forward to getting back to goal and losing weight in 2011!
