    Hi,

    * When you can get in those coveted pre baby jeans and look better than they ever did before!

    * When you have to make an extra hole in you belt!

    * When you go to aqua fit and do not have to stop half way through!

    Thank you so much for this forum, I really do not think I could have done this without all your positive comments and brilliant advice!

    1 stone down, 4 to go,

    Keep losing,

    When my husband can out his arms around me and touch fingers.

    When I am confident enough to hold my head high and feel a sexy fox

    You set off for work in the size 18 you bought 2 weeks ago (been a size 20 for years) and it ends up round your ankles. Good job it happened before I got out the front door.

    when you walk down the road and lose your underskirt.

    Good luck to you all,
