WOW Wednesday at The New You Plan
Share your WOW moments with us
WOW Wednesday at The New You Plan needs no introduction at this point, the whole purpose of today is hearing from you about your week and the things that have happened off the scales that have made your life awesome. Not to worry if you do want to mention a target you smashed this week on the scales – I know there are some people who will most certainly be sharing scale victories here as many milestones dropped and goals were achieved.
Well done to Oonagh who hit her long term target on Sunday 🙂
The Leaderboard:
We are up to an astonishing 93 Stones on the leaderboard and we would love to see this number top 100 by the end of the week so please please do make sure that you get your results in as every last pound will count. As an extra incentive Julie Ann has asked me to add each persons name one extra time to the iPad Air draw at the end of the week for every person who has their results up for 6 of the 6 weeks!!!!! 🙂
Task:
Woohoo well done for being here with me for week 6 WOW Wednesday, please share one last time the things that have happened to you off the scales in the last seven days that have put a grin on your face and a sparkle in your eye!

My wow Wednesday is peoples reaction when they see me, I’ve always been big and they are like where the hell is the rest of ya!!! U look amazing!! Etc etc and It makes me feel good xx cos sometimes u can’t see it yourself even tho I’ve dropped sizes!!!
I really enjoyed this one Kathleen 🙂 brought a massive smile to my face! Keep it up!
A few WOWs for me: Was out xmas shopping. Of course there were cars parked everywere yet I managed to squeeze into a tiny space! Problem was, would I now be able to squeeze myself out the car door?? Tadaa! No problem! My new slinky frame was easily able to slide out of the car with no problem AND squeeze between the parked cars without touching the wing mirrors. Before losing my weight, I was like an elephant – had to park in spaces were I felt there was enough room for me to open my car door and fit between parked cars without fear of breaking their mirrors. This put me off wanting to go near the shops and a lot of the time I ended up going shopping near closing time when the cars would mostly be away & there was room for me and my big body! But now I can park anywere at any time!!
Shopping done, my final WOW was when I was exhausted shopping and was relaxing on the armchair… my toddler wanted to sit beside me….. WOW — we both fitted SIDE BY SIDE on the armchair as my bum has shrunk so much!! Sooo happy!!! Beforehand she would have to sit across the top of me but now we can comfortably sit together cosied up with a blanket. Best week yet xx
This was such a warm comment Lorna and show why being in control of our weight is about much more than vanity – it is important for so many reasons. Thanks for your ongoing support 🙂
My wow moment happened last night at my daughters Xmas play, not only did she amaze me at her acting dancing and singing skills but a other mum who I’ve known for many years but not seen for quite some time Mia took me for my stunning slim older sister !!! Spent about half an hour talking to her and then it suddenly dawned on her that I was in fact Katy and not Lucy!!!
When my sister did eventually arrive my friend said jokingly oh here comes the fatter one of you two! Loved hearing it, as it’s always been me as the fat sister not anymore! Woo Hoo ! X
You are awesome Katy and I loved every step of watching you get to your goal and I love that you are enjoying it so much. A beautiful person through and through!
My wow moment is scales related for the past 2 weeks I’ve been struggling on plan with a few blips here and there and in my head I was saying I will never reach my first target of losing 2 stone before Christmas since Sunday I have been 100% and thought to myself let me check if I’ve lost much since Sunday (even though I’ve resigned myself to the fact I wouldn’t reach my target before the challenge finished) and WOOZER!!! I’ve done it lost the 6lbs I needed to reach my first mini goal!!!!
Woohoo Devinia you are awesome and these victories are just going to keep coming! There are going to be times your weight loss slows down, don’t worry it always comes back round! EPIC
My WOW moment is certainly a non scales victory; although while I am 10 days into the diet and 12.5lb lighter which is nothing to be sniffed at, I feel like a new person, which I hope doesn’t sound cliché! I have this new abundance of energy, and feel almost euphoric! This has led me to becoming more active and being more vocal about my weight loss Journey, and that in itself and been a huge weight lifted of me (excuse the pun) even more to my delight, divulging the journey I am on, to friends and family has given me even more support and encouragement to continue forward and for that I cant thank NEW YOU enough… Here is to a 100% week ahead and a successful scales victory on Saturday. Woohoo ! Sam…xxx
PS: I tried on my short term goal dress for a wedding at the end of this month, yesterday, and it Zipped right up!! To say a victory dance just happened was an understatement!
x
I can’t tell you how much I loved this Sam. What a wonderful, warm and bubbly story – I am really looking forward to seeing how far we can take this next year when it all kicks off on my blog again and in the interim please do contact us through email to tell us how you are getting on 🙂
My WOW moment just happened about 2 minutes ago when I saw and heard my name mentioned .
Thank you so much for all your support & encouragement , reassurances .
Thank you too for a wonderful Journey too x
WOW Go me !! lol
Merry Christmas xxx
You are most welcome Oonagh 🙂 you have smashed your way through this from start to finish and it was a very proud moment for me when you said you had hit your target! You rock!
Wow I’m actually wearing size 14 jeans and the wow moment is there r loose woo hoo 🙂
Woohoo Shauna 🙂 these moments are going to keep coming!
My Wow Wednesday moment is that the photo of my weight loss so far has now been seen by over 240 people since yesterday and so many people have left beautiful comments. I feel on top of the world!!!!!.
Best of all I had a lovely cuddle from my daughter this morning, she looked into my eyes and said I am so proud of you mum, you show me that if we try we can achieve anything. Best WOW Wednesday moment for me EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
A true inspiration Shell and I personally cant wait to interview you 🙂 EPIC WOW moment too – your daughter is right to be proud of her mom! Thank you so much for the support Shell
WOW! My lovely friend Oonagh reached her goal and I bet she looks even more fabulous than when I saw her last month! Mind you there was never any doubt she’d get there:)
No personal wows for me this week, doing refeed due to Xmas meals and so no movement on the scales.
Although maybe a mini wow that my fav chocs which a friend had bought me at the weekend really don’t taste quite as yummy and moreish as they used to! So slight blip but am not going to crave them as much anymore.
Keep it up Alison you will see your fair share of wow moments with us if you stick with it. Treats are great but smashing targets is awesome – will will do this 🙂
My Wow moment came this week when I had visitors and my sister in-law when she saw me said Wow Liz you look great! You have lost so much weight. Another wow moment came while Christmas shopping and a friend I have not see in a while walked straight passed me and only stopped to look again as I had said hello. She said she did not recognise me. This is a great feeling that I don’t want to lose.
Two great moments Liz – you have earned them both and the many more that are going to follow!
I have 2 wow moments- yesterday walking through debenhams I got my makeup done and the girl was talking about cheek bones- cheek bones I said, I didn’t think I had any cheek bones- oh yes you DO have cheek bones she said. I thought, at almost 3 stone ago I definitely Didn’t have cheek bones!!!
Also my son said to me the other night- mum you are doing really well with your new you and not eating horrible food- it really spurs me on as my children can see how much I am trying and I know that they are part of the reason I want to loose the weight 🙂
This is two really EPIC WOW moments Brenda – being able to show strength to those that matter makes it easier to be stronger moving forward! Keep going – we are proud of you to, seeing you smash this has meant a lot to me 🙂
My wow moment this week was when I met up with 2 friends on Sunday afternoon who I hadn’t seen for 2 months. They were both full of compliments and so impressed with my determination to lose weight. One of them just kept staring at me and apologising because she thought I looked amazing!! 🙂 x
Love it Clare – I am sure it was a little awkward for the other person but awesome all the same 🙂
I had a very hard day yesterday as it was 3 yrs since my father past away. This is the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with and I am still struggling with it now. But my sisters and brother came to mums to meet up to remember dad. With all the tears and emotions running I had a wow moment from both my sisters and brother. Thier reaction was amazing to me even though I am only half way on my journey. Xx
I am so proud of you Wendy – you have been with me from the start of the challenge and you have earned every victory and having this focused has helped and you have shown yourself how strong you are at this point!
WOW WEEK!
This is a short one – NORMAL BMI and into the 10 STONES can’t get better than that for WOW especially when your only 3lb from goal, and it’s a first to EVER be this small in my adult and teenage life! I have never seen these numbers! Beyond happy!
WOW is certainly the right expression here Kelly – absolutely killing this 🙂 That goal does not stand a chance!
My WOW moment was looking in the mirror yesterday!!!..when i thought- WOW I am in jeans and look good!!! I’d go out looking like this.. WoW finally in a pair of trousers!!!
Yesterday I bought a pair of skinny ‘size 12’ jeans.. first pair of trousers i’ve bought and worn in 3years and not hated myself in..or taken them off because i couldnt get them over my knees..(were talking 14’s & 16’s) I looked like an short elephant… So it was great to finally get a pair of trousers on, up and closed…and like myself in them.. now thats a massive ….WOW…
..GO NINA..GO NINA ….!!!
Super Nina and it is only going to keep getting better 🙂
My 1st wow moment is going on fb and seeing the focus determination and passion to succeed of the women that are nearly at goal losing 3-4-5-6-7-8-9st I really am in awe & My 2nd wow moment is fitting into a small size 12 skirt from bay I don’t know were I got it but its never fit till yesterday I really easnt expecting it to fit but whaahaay! Xx 😀 ☆★
I really loved reading this Charlene – reminded me of what it felt like buying a smaller pair of jeans (not quite the same but still brought back that memory). Nothing quite like it 🙂
My Wow moment was about an hour ago….was fitting on dresses to choose one for my Christmas party tonight…..2 slipped on without me even opening the zip. WOW!! Off to the dressmaker now for a slight adjustment!!! Happy bunny.:) xx
Happy bunny I am sure Mags – hope they get it done in time 🙂
My wow was hitting my goal of 30 lbs in 6 weeks. Look forward to part 2 wows in January !
Me to Tara and well done on your awesome win here 🙂
my wow moment came about half and hour ago i tried on my old size twelve jeans and guess what they fit a bit tight to be honest but they on whoohoo x
Woohoo Pauline – I am so proud of you 🙂 soon they will be dropping off! Have to update me then 😉
My wow moment today was when the bath towel … not the bath sheet went all the way around me this morning after my shower !!!!
This is fantastic Patricia – I can just imagine your jubilation :)Keep it up.
My wow moment today was when a work colleague actually noticed IDE lost weight and said I look great ! Couldn’t help but smile 🙂 🙂 🙂
Such a proud moment Jasmin and as I say to people they are just going to keep happening 🙂
Got to my 2 stone goal two weeks before deadline (Xmas) am over over over the moon…..
And new tops I bought back in early October, now fit me for Xmas and will feel much better when another 1/2 stone gone…. Thank you New You
You have yourself to thank Paula 🙂 well done this is what we live for.
I got told yesterday by lady in petrol station that I look amazing and she asked what I had been doing,it s hard being humble when you want to jump up and down and scream I lost 4 stone:-) 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 can’t stop grinning
From the start you nailed this Tracy and I think you have more than earned the right to jump up and down a little – enjoy it 🙂
My wow moment was yesterday evening, whilst xmas shopping with my daughters. My eldest asked why I kept running off and walking so fast. Eight weeks ago I couldn’t keep up with them (their legs are much longer than mine! 😉 ) and I wasn@t even out of breath just in a hurry 😀 xx
Such a bright turning point Wendy I am thrilled for you 🙂 keep it up – it only gets better!
A fit looking fella gave me a 2nd look at the bus stop !!! Chuckle chuckle !!!
I am sure he is kicking himself for not coming over! Regardless of what the response would have been. Super WOW moment Linda 🙂
My WOW moment happened today when I saw a guy who I see periodically in town, he stopped me and said how great I looked- felt really good 🙂
Also WOW that I have spent 6 weeks on the NY Plan at 100% – very happy. 🙂 xx
Loved hearing this Aimee and I have loved the support you have given me here from the start – it is a wow moment but it was all you 🙂
Today I thought I’d try on some of my smaller clothes – was chuffed to have found a pair of jeans (tags still on) and a Super dry jumper that my son bought me last Christmas (still with tags on) – so went out feeling rather pleased in my “kinda’ new clothes!
Double win here Jo – they are new and i am sure your son is going to be thrilled to see you in them. 🙂 (we pay attention to these things trust me)
My wow moment was when I tried on a couple of size 20’s lurking in the back of the wardrobe and they are TOO BIG….so size 18’s…whoo hoo…haven’t been that size in at least 20 years….so bought a few things online today to be waiting for me getting home….can’t let the kids see me in these baggy clothes…whoo hoo. THANKYOU. xxx
You have nailed this Anne and I have loved seeing your progress – keep it up 🙂 The kids are going to be thrilled with your New You!
Hi everyone
Hi everyone
Sorry guys
My WOW moment this week was when I looked in the mirror and realised I now have Collar Bones!!!!! Woo Hoo
I can remember seeing those changes Caroline and they make such a difference – massive unexpected boosts to your confidence 🙂 (Hi back to you too also – made me laugh seeing your messages above as I normally do it)
wow is wearing a big winter coat and not feeling like wearing a sack roll on the summer x
Awesome Avril – I love the way clothing changes the way it fits when you lose weight. I agree also with the summer comment – roll on 🙂
My WOW moment was when someone didnt recognise me yesterday – did a double take and said OMG Fiona you are fading away!!
I was soooooooooo chuffed.
Fiona
You nailed it Fiona 🙂 I am sure there are going to be plenty more of these!
