Hey everyone!

Me and my friend started WeightWatchers tonight. Really motivated but one thing Im not sure of is our target weight. Nothing like this was mentioned?
Did someone forget or is it just not done?
Thanks! Will be an interesting week

According to ww.co.uk 80g is 4pp - medium is 155g and 9pp

I just realised 9 weeks til my hol to S Africa!! I really need to shed this weight, 2 stone in the last yr!! Im sickened Feb last yr I was competing in duathlons and races.....ugh I feel soooo fed up tonight.
I was doing well all day... 10pts between breakfast and lunch as knew was going out for dinner tonight. I had no starter, I had pasta carbonara(not great menu) 18pp and no dessert as I had a ww lemon cake when I came home!!! I just feel soooo down as I started this diet thing before xmas but only rejoined ww about 3 weeks ago cuz I knew I couldnt do it on my own as Ive no friends or family up here with me to support me.
I lost 5.5lbs first 2 weeks,up 1 this week.
SO MUCH TO LOSE SO LITTLE TIME!!!
Feel like having a cry!!Sorry for my rant.....just feel like I have nobody else to rant too at the moment

you done great the first two weeks and you will have the pound gone before you know it and more just keep at it, your still 4 and a half pounds lighter than you were two weeks ago! that means something! if you lose a pound to 2 pound that's 9 pounds or double that 18 gone in 9 weeks
I know how hard it is being in a new place knowing no one! I moved from Dublin to Australia and then back home then moved to Carlow, I still have friends at home but have more acquaintances here LOL I have my DH parents and they are lovely but not the same as my sisters and mum.

going to the meeting might be just what you need get you out chatting to like minded people
