Rep Power: 85 | | Samm - someone has put a message that will be of interest to you on the surgical weight loss thread where you posted. Check it out - I think that you have found someone to compare experiences with.
I hope that it works well for you. |

Rep Power: 6 | | Hello everyone  ,
I'm another Brit - from London. I just joined this forum about a month ago and it's fantastic - much better than Weight Watchers, in my opinion, but then I never really got on with counting points.
It's nice to see so many other Brits here, too. How did you all arrive at this place? I got here because I didn't want to join an organisation and follow their specific diet, but I really want to talk to other people facing the same issues. So far it's working well. I've already lost a stone and I'm not feeling irritable and aggrieved at all!   |

good job on losing the stone!!!  can't wait till i can say that!
have a good day

We love Cornwall...we were lucky enough to re locate here 8 yrs ago....we came here on holiday for 12yrs plus & decided when we could we would...and we did!!
My weight loss has steadied out now at around 1lb a week. I'm happy with that and I think I have a routine I can keep to longterm. |

Rep Power: 6 | | Thought I'd join in on the Brit-isms :] Hullo! Another person from the Midlands, and I'm definitely envious of anyone lucky enough to live in Cornwall xP We're planning a weekend trip to the south, though we're still undecided whether we want accommodation or if we'll rough it with a tent.
Haha, I used to get confused with the pounds, but definitely prefer working in stone. The numbers look nicer (aka smaller) working in stones than having a number in the hundreds. |
