My 100 Pounds Weight Loss with Slimming World Before and After

This is my personal and emotional weightloss journey, where I lost 100 pounds following the Slimming World Plan.
7 Stone and 4 pounds weight loss in total.
I did try not to make this video lengthy but it is as short as I could make it, a condensed story I would say!
I do hope you find some motivation and Inspiration watching this vlog as its very personal to me plus it was very emotional too!
I really do hope you are able to watch it though.
Grab a cuppa and enjoy xx Sam xx

I'm not normally a commentor, but wow, that was such a powerful story, its touched a nerve so thankyou! ❤ xxx

[@BePositiveSam]

I hope it was a nice nerve 🥰 thank you 💞

[@helenl3772]

Thank you for sharing this Sam, you have really inspired me to start at Slimming World after so many failures. I have watched all your uploads since finding you a few days ago, and the similarity in our weights and especially a certain event, also losing my future son-in-law at 29 2 years ago, which really hits you hard. I cried with you, but it helps so much to identify with others who have similar goals, and realise what baggage we accumulate emotionally, which makes it hard to concentrate on ourselves. Time to do it for them, to inspire our daughter,s, and to realise that not everybody has the freedom of choice that we have. Life is precious.

[@BePositiveSam]

Oh bless you 🤗 I didn't mean to make anyone cry, I just couldn't help it. It sounds as though our lives are very similar. I know I am fortunate for being able to get back on track and hopefully to inspire others. Thank you for your lovely message it really means a lot to me xx Sam xx 🥰

[@jofrench2674]

Thankyou Sam. This spoke to me on so many levels. I’ve found myself nodding and smiling, and even filling up when you talked about your daughter’s loss. My journey is almost the same as yours. I also lost a lot of weight about five years ago and then after a cancer scare (it wasn’t) and an emergency hysterectomy, then losing my mum I lost my way a bit. But like you I’m now back on it and really motivated and listening to this, has strengthens me even more. Thank you!😘

[@BePositiveSam]

Thank you, I find this video hard to watch because of the emotion. I'm glad it helps you xx

[@susandavies8268]

Thank you so much for sharing that with us. I totally understand when you talked about how good you felt on that holiday, I've lost 3 stone, with just under another stone to go, and I feel so much younger and fitter and happier. I actually dont cringe when I see photos of myself like I used to. You have given me the inspiration to carry on and reach my goal, thank you. X

[@BePositiveSam]

Thank you for your lovely comment, Well done for your 3 stone weight loss that is amazing. You must keep going to your goal xx

[@brendaowen06]

Gosh Sam those old and new photos.s were fab i rooted a photo of me and my hubby out from 43years ago i was young and slim it was my first ever attempt at slimming and its been weight up and down ever since watching you Sam gives me the confidence i can do it again i love your honesty you are looking great keep it up thanks xxxB

[@BePositiveSam]

There is something about old photos. I know we can't go back but going forward and improving our health is important for our confidence xx Thanks Sam xx

[@mandylou7400]

Hi Sam wow that certainly was I wonderful video, I've laughed, cried and felt every emotion going. I too have been in your boat a couple of times. But now I've rejoined slimming world and have found my mojo. I've lost over 2 1/2 stone so far, and again like you said I've a long way to go. But something clicked this time in my journey . But this week I've fallen off the wagon as been on holiday with family. And I can't get on the scales as I know it will be bad. But my weigh day isn't till Tuesday. So after watching you it's certainly worked I'm back on it so fingers crossed for Tuesday it won't be to bad. Thank you so much for your help it's really appreciated and good luck on your journey too 🤗😘x

[@BePositiveSam]

😊 There is a lot of emotion in that video and I didn't mean for it to happen it just did. I was worried it would put people off watching so thank you for your kind message. I do hope the scales are not too bad on Tuesday for you. They usually are better than we imagine but I find once I've faced the scales I can move on again. Have a good week xx

[@gillianrobinson9082]

Thank you for sharing this Sam life is short and you do feel better when we've lost weight I need to loose a stone I'm determined now after watching your vlog. My wonderful husband passed away in January life is hard at the moment but one day at a time. Take care.♥️

[@sutosew]

Am I so pleased to have found your channel, I have just joined slimming world, I have just had my second weigh in I lost 3lb my first week and was really chuffed, my second weigh in was a maintain, which I was happy about, I really need guidance which I feel you can help, covid19 has really messed-up people's lives, you are now on a new journey as I am too, you have been there done that, and know the process, I love watching Debbie, and Tracy Mouse, but you are starting let's say from scratch. I look forward to your future vlogs of tips and tricks, and lifestyle. Thank you.

[@BePositiveSam]

I always find the first couple of weeks very difficult because we have food etc left in cupboards. It is a difficult journey and one only we can achieve if our minds are in it. Have a great week on plan and let me know how you get on xx Sam xx

[@joanhills8675]

I wish you well on your new journey. You can do it. Thank you for telling us your story. You done amazing well. If you can do it, so can l. Good luck for next weigh in x

[@BePositiveSam]

Thank you although this time it seems harder. Thanks for your support. Take care xx

[@summerrose9565]

Hello Sam, I’ve just found your channel so will be binge watching to catch up. What an amazing story and what an amazingly inspiring lady you are. I also lost over 100lb over Covid and am determined to keep it off. You are absolutely right about nothing tastes as good as being slim feels but I know I must keep focused as it all too easy to let things slip. I shall be cheering you on with every pound lost going forward and doing a happy dance with every stone you lose( sorry I can’t match your hubby with the £100 for each stone 😅) I am calorie counting rather than Slimming World but who cares , all diets are calorie deficits in the end. Good luck for your next weigh in . I’ve subscribed and liked 🎉🎉🎉

Welcome, I am so pleased you liked it. 6 pounds is great, on track for half stone xx Thank you for your lovely comment xx

[@anndavies5666]

Hi Sam. I am listening to you while doing household chores. I am really interested what you have been saying about your Slimming World journey. My ears started to pick up when you were talking about a lump in your breast. I am so pleased it was not cancer and you had the lump removed and feel much better. I found a lump in my breast exactly 3 years today so I know exactly how you was feeling. We were attending a family Wedding so I had to put it on one side and never told a soul. I have gone through a mastectomy, 17 lymph nodes removed. Had Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy hence the reason I am at Slimming World trying to look the 3 stone I have put on. Bearing in mind the treatment was in 2020 during lockdown. I can say I am doing very well and had a positive attitude all through my journey. Keep the good work up. I have just subscribed to yourself and hope to follow you through your journey. I have lost 1 stone usually 1lb a week. I feel a lot better in myself as I have also been diagnosed with Spondilisis in my spine which causes a lot of discomfort at times. I went back to your video and feel so sorry for your loss. It must have been very difficult for your Daughter and all of the family. Thank you for reading this message in advance x

[@BePositiveSam]

Wow, thank you for your emotional message, I am sad to read you have had such a difficult last few years. My weightloss is very similar and works out roughly 1.5lbs a week. I have been very good this week so fingers crossed I have a loss. Thank you again for your kind message xx

Hiya Hun that’s was such a touching story and you looked so different I was also there once I got down to 10st 5lb from 16st then covid hit and I’m now at 14st I have restarted my journey as I feel horrible I have gained all my weight back on my lower half of my body I’m so uncomfortable at doing everything just standing from a sitting position is an effort and enough is enough I know what u mean with that saying aswell but when I was at my lowest I couldn’t see how small I was or feel how good it was to be that weight until now when I have memory’s popping up and I see what I actually looked like and I wish I was bk there again We have done it once we can do it again Good luck for weigh in my first one is Friday xxx

[@BePositiveSam]

Its so hard isn't it? I just have to take it really slowly. I look at my daughter wearing my old clothes and can't believe I was ever there. Im just chipping away cos even if I get half way there its better than where I am today. xx Take care xx
