Thread: Starting slimfast today

Hello everyone starting slimfast today need to lose 3 stone any advice or tips would be appreciated. Was thinking of fruit with homemade dips and homemade soups as snacks instead of slimfast snacks. Lindsey

Hi Lindsey

welcome to SF! tomorrow will be my two week mark! and i have found its gotten alot easier than when i first started!

as a snack if i fancy something warm i usually have a cuppa soup! there are loads of flavours that are under 100cal.

For dinner i tend to have ready meals as the cals are counted for you - i have the healthy range. i.e tesco lighter choices, weight watchers etc

BUT i find the biggest tip is to stay on here! all the girlies on here are lovely and its a great support network. there are a few posts with regular weigh ins where we update our weights when we weigh in so this is good support too!

keep us updated! xxx

Hi i am on my second week of slim fast with a weekend off I have to admit i struggle not to snack over the recommended three 100 calorie snacks, it is my fault however as i have them all in one go in the form of belvita biscuits, its just about keeping busy as i am at home all the time studying!

Yes I work from home and yes 1st week was so hard but I think the longer you are on it your body must adjust. Well it is a sun with snow on the ground so I will cook a sun dinner without the fat and plenty of vegetables, will look at the weigh in posts. thanks x Lindsey.

Hi and welcome

Keep us posted with how you do and any questions, just ask!

Hi Lindsey,

i must admit the first few days/first week i found hard, i was quite hungry too and struggled with the snacking. But now im on my 4th week and im fine, my 600cal meal actually fills me up so much that i almost cant finish it now!! (never used to happen lol) so i promise it does get easier.

Best tip - get stocked up on some Hartley's fat free, sugar free under 10cal jellies! i know tesco have them as 4 for £2 at the moment and they are seriously lush!! Raspberry and Cranberry, Mango and Passionfruit are my favs!!

anyways keep us posted.
