    queenbee - thanks, I have used WW online before, lost about 10kgs prior to getting married using it... unfortunately I put it all back on, plus more! I used to only get 20 points too... I guess the extras are cause I am a little heavier now, as well as breastfeeding. I only used 26 of them yesterday, and I even had low fat icecream for dessert cause it was so hot here

    well done on the results girls... havent done mine yet cause I cant find the tape measure, but the scales say I have lost

    Amy - try not to feel bummed hun. You're doing an awesome job. I don't think your stomach should be grumbling from hunger though. I agree with blackduckies about your body going into starvation mode if you don't eat enough and often, it will hold on to all the fat and water for energy. Try spreading your meals out to 5 a day - still have your 3 main ones and add a couple of snacks in the morning and arvo, like some fruit, handful of nuts, yoghurt, piece of cheese, carrot sticks dipped in some low fat cottage cheese, etc, etc

    Well done to everyone who has lost or stayed the same weight

    For me i lost 1.8kg and a few cms but only from my bust, hips and waist really none from my arms and legs. I have been good today and am in cleaning mode. Have done out all my kitchen cupboards so even though its not lots of exercise at least im not sitting on my bottom

    Blah I gained 200g this week, however I lost 3cm off my waist. Hopefully, next week I see a bigger decrease on the scales.

    Took my before photos this morning and almost died. I didn't think I looked the way I do! It was definitely good motivation to keep going. I'm going to keep them private for now, but I think I'll print them out along with a photo of me when I was at my goal weight a couple years ago and stick them up together on the wall in front of my elliptical trainer so I can stare at them when I'm running and motivate myself!

    Laranna - I felt the same way with my before shots - I didn't think I looked that bad!!! It's amazing how you're brain can trick you when you're looking in the mirror. Mine are also filed away somewhere private but I am looking forward to posting them in here with my "after" shots when I am at my goal weight!

    Laranna, I have taken shots too and seriously the photos when I started were bl**dy disgusting, I never realised I was so fat!! So glad 2.8kgs of that is GONE! Won't be seeing that again, EVER. Still very motivated to keep going. Nothing is changing my mind this time. I'm 3.5 weeks in on WW and I am determined.

    Amy, yeah don't be too hard on yourself. You'll probably lose double next week. Didn't you lose heaps last week anyway? Like over 2kilos? I can't remember. This week will be different for you, keep going

    Hoody, well done on the 1.8kg loss! Yeah!

    Nik, good work on 0.8kg loss, a loss is a loss and they say losing a kilo a week is really healthy anyway.

    Ali, where are you? What was your loss?

    Mum, which low fat ice cream do you have? I have the PETERS 97% FAT FREE one, only 1.5points for a scoop and so yummy!

    Amber, congrats on the loss too!

    Blackduckies, I have cheap scales from Bunnings, I don't like them much, I really like the glass ones. Might have to pay a visit to BIGW!

    Tk, I forgot to wish you a HAPPY BFP! Congrats, I wish you a really healthy and happy pregnancy

    I forgot to mention, I lost 3.5cms off bust, hips and waist area
