Thread: New to Slim and Save

Hey everyone,

I start properly on Thursday so having a carb free day tomorrow! Just wondered if someone could give me more info, I've done Cambridge Weight Plan before is it the same as that? Also how much do people loos a week?

Hi - and welcome

I started at weekend and have my first weigh in at Boots next Mon - i am expecting to lose a fair bit as 1st week but after then am aiming/hoping for 3lb per week - am on the 4 packs a day - and aiming to stick with them with no protein/veg .........

Are you on 3 or 4 packs ?

I havent done Cambridge - but have done Lighter life - but it is similar to these - one of the reasons i chose SnS was because of the wide variety of packs - more than LL - not sure about CD

But Good luck and keep us updated ...

Hello and welcome

I've not done CD so can't answer that, have done LL though and it's the same principles. My weight loss below is for the first 7 weeks which looks about average I think. I'm having a little more than plan on some days adding in the veg and protein a few times a week and are still losing steadily

I've done both. They're basically the same but S&S is better because of the taste and variety of packs. Also the fact that they have meal packs that allow you to feel like you're actually eating something! Your losses will probably be similar on S&S as they were when you did CPW as they follow the same principles. Everyone is different so no-one can say how much you'll lose obviously, but most average to about a stone a month, which is the same as CWP.

Thanks for all of the info guys!
I came home to find my lovely box of goodies! I like the way these are all in packs that aren't labeled so no one can see when your out and about! X

I started s&s wednesday and so far so good,I'm on 4 packs and just 150ml milk which I use in tea.i am finding it ok,I wish there were different porridges ,on the keediet I've noticed they do different flavours,cinnamon etc ,I can't wait till Wednesday for weigh in and measure time Good luck to everyone,keep up the good work

I put cinnamon and nutmeg into the porridges, it's nice.

yeah, bit of cinnamon and nutmeg with sweetner, makes it different every time.

I put cinnamon in too, though I have to admit I'm not a fan of S&S porridge at all.

I hope u r all having a good week, I much prefer the oatmeal, that is sweet enough for me, I usually have some each day. Yesterday I had my first weigh in, I was well chuffed I had lost 17lb, can't wait till next Wednesdays weigh again, probably be a little loss,as long as its in the right direction x

17lb!!!!!!!! Wow well done

17lbs is absolutely amazing, well done!!!

17lb - amazing !!!! keep it up - you are so inspirational .....
