Fantastic loss, well done!

Hope you've had a good week, only 1 pound off for me this week

Hi Luise! Sorry for the absence! It's been crazy in my life... I am kind off the wagon but with healthier choices! I haven't put anything on though.
1 pound is ok don't you think? How are you doing now? Don't give up! Slow and steady is fine! It's 14 weeks until June so you could be a lot lighter then!
I have to tell you that I am thinking of maybe trying another diet to boost my losses till spring and then come back to SW! Like seeing a dietician or following Rosemary Conleys program for a month or two. What do you think? You could send me a pm if you like!

Hi!

Good to see you back!

Only one pound on is great, the healthier choices obviously worked - I can put that on after one meal.

I think another diet may help you lose some weight more quickly, simply because they are a lot more restrictive. However, as a long term solution SW seems to be the one that you can do forever - its whole aim is to re-educate us in our food choices. As your small gain has proved, you can still live and not gain huge amounts of weight.

Previous to finding SW I was a strict calorie counter but all I did was eat the same rubbish foods, just less of them. It didn't teach me anything about maintaining a healthy weight - only how to get there. I'm sure a dietician would only tell you what SW does...a healthy, balanced diet with moderation being the key word (unfortunately, not a word I find easy to do).

Hey!!! Look at your new badges!!!! Congratulations!!!! You are doing great!!
I haven't been able to stick to the program completely, I am eating healthy though!
I know SW is great but you need to be consistent with it like with everything else. And I am finding it hard.... but I know that I won't be reaching my target if I can't deny myself a daily (sugary or fatty) treat.
I think that if I were in the UK it would be easier for me to get more free foods.
Anyway! Just wanted to congratulate you and tell you that 5 kilos is such a great job! It will be a lot more before you know it!!
Keep in touch!

Aw, thank you! I was really fed up this week to have put on a pound but think it should have gone - hopefully plus some more - on Sunday.

I'm sure the exercise is helping it is just difficult finding time when I work and have a young daughter too.

Keep up the healthy eating
