Charlotte I genuinely think you look incredible! And your confidence really is shining through in these videos now and that is what matters I think! The main thing is YOU are happy and comfortable in your own skin and I think that's what it's all about.. if you are happy then stick to this target and don't listen to the rubbish that says you are 'overweight'. Because you're CLEARLY not! 😍 I absolutely LoVe watching your SW updates and as soon as I get a notification I click so fast 😂 I started my journey at end of Jan and so far I've lost 1st 10.5lbs and I am really really enjoying sw and it has changed my life so much - I still have another 2 ish stone to go and your updates keep me motivated they really do. Well done girl your an inspiration to us ❤ xxx
I started slimming world today, my second baby is almost 9 weeks and I have two stone to lose. Been following your journey and can't wait to feel as confident and happy as you are! You can do it!!x
There's a lot of target members that stay to my group every week and they say they just saw how their body responded. If you're still following the plan your body may just keep losing anyway and then you can always move your target. Or you may stay at 12stone easily and then if you're happy, it's about being happy. BMI definitely isn't everything. Please still upload your journey, it's always helpful. You're extremely motivational and honest and beautiful
Hi Hun, love your update videos look forward to them every week 😊 I'm a target member, and I set my target to 11st because honestly I couldn't remember when I was last even in that bracket and it was what I thought was an unachievable dream for myself. For me it was important to be medically healthy and 'normal' so I did go off my bmi but take it with a pinch of salt and do what makes you happy 😊 tbh, why not hit target and maintain for a few months and see how you feel? You can then move it and keep losing if you wish 😊 And please please keep making these update videos as a target member! Maintaining it not the end of the journey it's just a different challenge and there are next to no utubers sharing that part of the journey, I'm sure it would immensely help many others including myself if you still made updates on maintaining. Much love 😘
Well done! I would aim for your target and then throughly enjoy your holiday and re-evaluate when you get back. I reached my target end of January which was 3 stone but I've since lowered it by 1.5 stone to get me to the top end of my BMI....main reason is if/when I have another baby i want to be a lot healthier. Good luck for this week, love the updates and hope you keep with them at target xx
So pleased for you, you look incredible. I always hear it's good to lose more than you plan knowing that when the "pressure" is off, you will likely gain a couple pounds. So maybe after a wee break you could keep going a bit or if you're content now (you look awesome!!!) just stay the same!
Hi Charlotte, I'm a target member of Slimming World :) I'm really happy at my target, i think if i lost anymore which i think i could but then i would struggle to maintain it. I feel like the weight I am just now is maintainable. The only thing I would really like to do now is tone up! I have had 2 children too and everything is a bit wobbly lol! So I am going to try and exercise more, bought a TRX kit to do at home. If you are happy with the way you look and feel and the size of clothes etc. i would just stick to your original target. In the future if you decide you'd like to lose more you know what to do :) Getting to target feels amazing and you're not far off now!!! Although I was a bit embarassed when I had to get up in front of class to get my certificate etc.!!!
Aw, I'm sure people would still like to see your videos even though you are at target. I do ww and I got to goal last year, and maintaining is pretty hard. I think having people watching and support you will help with that xxx
Congratulations lovely, very well done! I found your videos when I started the week after you and after 2st 10lb loss I'm thinking the same about target. Would love you to do target videos still as your videos are brilliant, always look forward to them. Does anyone think or find that maintaining is any easier? Excited for it but will be really nervous 😀 All the best for this week and love to the little ones x
Yey! Well done. I lost 4lbs this week, only 16lbs left to go. Trying to stick to a 2lbs loss each week but I'm so hit and miss. I think where I'm exercising now too I might be gaining muscle so the scales can be confusing. Feel like I'm a few weeks away from fitting into my pre-baby clothes which I'm so looking forward to 😊
You look amazing and so happy, and daisy was absolutely adorable (as always) in this, such a character! And I will definitely want to keep watching once you've got to target:)
You've done so well! You'd should be very proud! I wouldn't worry too much about BMI, mine was 26 last I checked which also means overweight but I have been working hard at the gym the last few months (for strength reasons, not weightloss) and I feel really pleased with how my body looks as a result. But more importantly I'm pleased with how it performs and I really think the BMI is inaccurate in that way as it can't fully base it on your physical shape and performance if that makes sense! If you're healthy and happy then I definitely wouldn't worry! x
well done hun you look amazing love your videos I do have a target it's a number I have always wanted to be but never thought possible but I am slowly beginning to believe I can achieve it and your videos inspire me so much so just want to say a BIG thank you to you
Hi Charlotte! Well done with your loss! I haven't reached my target yet and I have a long way to go but I based my target on my BMI. My starting BMI was 42.5 and I've lost nearly 1st 11lb and it's currently 37.3. My target is 8st which will mean my BMI is 23.4. Do what you feel comfy with! Don't let a BMI number dishearten you! It's only a number and not how you feel! Good luck! Kirstie xx
BMI honestly doesn't mean anything!!! You look amazing, and as long as you are happy that's all that matters - once you've lost that weight you can stop focusing on numbers and just focus on the look of your body and if you're happy! Slimming world recipes are delicious and super nutrious so there's nothing stopping you living that lifestyle if you stop aiming to lose weight :) any more that comes off is just bonus! you should be so proud!
Charlotte, you're doing amazing and look amazing. I never watched your SW videos from the start and wondered where your target came from? Have you had someone calculate your ideal weight based on age and height? It's a funny society we live in and we all seem to focus on numbers. I've got one for you, why not gage your size, on the fit of Marks arms around you? I'm guessing, looking at your waist, they'd almost fit round you, twice. If you feel good, that pretty much wins. xx
Charlotte please ignore BMI and go with how you feel / the size you're happy with. For example, i'm 5ft 7 and when my bmi was 28 I was still a size 14/16, i'm so jealous you are a size 12 (while also so chuffed for you). Also maybe your weight will naturally keep dropping as I presume you are going to continue your lifestyle and not go back to old habits completely. Perhaps where it naturally plateaus is the right weight for you? Please keep doing hauls and showing off your figure and style, you're an inspiration :) xx
don't go off bmi. doctors even think they are a bunch a rubbish. doesn't take into account muscle mass, other factors etc. Mine says I'm overweight as most sports people are on the bmi scale. which is a little rubbish, but yeah don't listen to that or take that into account. you've done amazing!
im on my 2nd week of slimming world now, 3rd on tuesday and in my first week i lost 8.5lbs i couldnt believe my eyes when i saw it, i wonder how i've done this week
have you done any SP days while on your journey? I feel like everyone rants about them but I get grouchy without carbs lol! Well done on your loss this week xxx
Lucy Marie i didn't believe the hype, and I LOVE carbs, but it works so well for me as a boost! I've done it for 2 weeks (separately), and both times I lost 4lbs, so defo worth it. But would recommend you plan - I don't plan normally but SP will work if you plan, it requires a bit more thinking but is worth it! xx
Hi Charlotte I have been at target now for a while and my target was 4 st. I am 5ft 5 and was 15st 5 lbs now 11st 5 lbs ish I bounce around in my target bubble. I am a size 12 some size 10s if item contains a bit of lycra lol, but I would need to loose another stone to be a health bmi and I am quite happy where I am. I would not be doing it for me but because it is what the person in the 1930s that invented those bloody numbers wanted us to be. So I say sod them I like the odd bit of chocolate thank you very much lol. You look stunning Charlotte you do you and don't about the little numbers 😃 xxx
I think go with how you feel. I have about 50lbs to go lost 30 so far but I may stop before the 50 will depend on how I look. and yes I think when you are a target member I would still like to know how you get on how you find maintaining etc. I'm 5'3 how tall are you?
How tall are you sweetie? Just asking as I am similar weight now but feel like your body shape is totally different to mine. I still have quite a big tummy but you look awesome. I am 5ft 3 and my target is 10stone. I feel like it is so far away!!
Just found your channel, I'm going on holiday in July and I hope I can lose 2 and a half stone. Any tips? Btw, I am in my first week of slimming world. Also, how tall are you?

Bmi is useless, I wouldn't take any notice. You look amazing! X
you do what makes you happy but ignore bmi. I am a similar build to you and to be healthy bmi I actuslly look stick thin.
U look good u probably lose more f ur just train hard do weights, it will tighten n lift everything up.
i think you'll end up still losing weight on holiday with all the walking around the parks.
Well done I have like 45 lbs to my target
