Doin well first couple of weeks. Can't complain at all
best of luck, this is my third week and loving it so much
my weight loss journey:
That's great. I'm finding it hard to focus this week. Just ordered a little kettebell and a dvd - maybe a bit of sweat will get the fat moving again.

Hi L2L - I've always been a stress/emotional/boredom eater & I started listening to a hypnosis dvd - nothing fancy, just a quick 10 minute visualisation track & it really did help me break my old stress/eat habits. They've not gone completely (but I have slacked off listening) but I now have the mental trigger that makes me stop as I am casting my eye across the fridge for something & so if I choose to eat it, I do & syn it, for better or worse - whereas I'd have a sandwich or half a pack of biccies stuffed into me before I realised before.
Well done on your losses so far.

Hi guys, can I join in? Another newbie to the boards here. Have started SW on Monday and doing it solo as no groups in my area. Have at least 5 stone to loose but concentrating on 10lb loss each month.
10lb a month is a big ask - I set a similar sort of goal after the first stone seemed to simply melt away. But it's slowed down now so I've had to reassess my goals - as long as the weight is gone for good I'll wait a bit longer. Bought a size 16 M and S suit yesterday and it's being able to do that keeps me going - it fits now but another half a stone and it will be great. I'm giving away my 22 trousers next week.
Good Luck.

For the first couple of months I'd say that's easily achievable. I'm not long it but am finding it easy. But the incentive of having the class each Monday keeps me on target. But personally I have set interim goals without times. Ie. goal one, lose half stone. Goal 2 fit into jeans that are too small. Goal 3 get 1 stone etc.
I feel that this is much better as its not giving u added pressure. If u dont get that 10 lb in a month, it might dishearten u but if u are continually down week on week and hit ur goals one by one, even if it takes longer, at least you'll get there. Besides ur body doesn't work like a watch so setting time constraints won't help u mentally.
Good luck anyway.
havent been on here in ages,really trying to get back on track.... had lost nearly 3 stone, but have put nearly 1 stone back on... have gone back to gym and am trying hard
Hi... I joined SW this morning!!!!
Stayed for the TWO HOUR long class :/
Hoping it works out for me though!
I was on Weight Watchers previouly... But I find that I can't get lower than what I am.... So I decided to try something new!!!
Do you know if there are any iPhone apps for syn calculations?
Goals:
Reach my 5% Goal (Lose 12lbs)
Reach my 10% Goal (Lose 24lbs)
typically its one Syn per 20kcal. SW is brilliant. best of luck

Thanks so much!!!

Staying to group is worth it & it's usually 1 hour on a normal week but definitely it's v long the first week!
There is an SW app for Facebook & android that gives you Syn values for most products. It's called 'a taste of slimming world'

how are we all doing this week?
I've had such a plateau over the past month & had holidays, birthdays plus a couple of what the hell have a bottle of wine days- but it could have been worse - not gained weight but not lost much either . Now shaking myself off, dusting myself down and I'm going swinging! Bought a kettlebell and now the youngest is in creche 3 hours of a morning it's time to get out walking when I drop her off. So at 14 stone - starting again.
You still seem to be doing mighty. Well done.
