Thread: QUEEN SIZE TO PRINCESS

I know this will sound like im cheating but i was going to use this weeks and next weeks weigh ins for the mini challenge so this weeks would come off my total?
Thankyou already feel mega supported by you guys! I'm sure you'll all do just as well, if not better this week

Corsacar your not cheating at all hun, im gonna use this weeks weigh in too! You must be chuffed, well done you, what a fab start! only 1lb for you to reach mini target!!! xxx

I am chuffed although every week I have a massive loss like this, I get worried that if the next week is a pound i'll get disappointed. I'm almost scared of this 'lucky' streak working and can't believe that it's the efort i'm putting in thats paying off!
Does anyone else get that?!

Louise - 5lbs
Capricorn - 4lbs
Corsacar - 5lbs - 4lbs off!!!
Freyasmommy - 3.5
Dudette - 5lbs

Yep, i know exactly what you mean, i think sometimes i get scared to believe that i might actually lose the weight once for and all, in case i dont, and then im massively dissapointed. If you know what i mean. I am just breaking everything down into little goals, rather than thinking omg i have 6/7/8/ stone to lose, they seem more realistic and achieveable? Hopefully!!! xxx

I know exactly what you mean, finally being a normal healthy weight is a very scary thing! Even though i've yearned for it for years, when it's actually right in front of you., it's a weird feeling, so is finally taking control of your weight!
Not that i am complaining, my losses and everyone elses are amazing, but i feel like i need a slow week just to know how i would feel?!
But then i think my problem has always been being able to live in the moment! So that is what i am going to try to do

Oooo, I just noticed your weight losses for the past 4 weeks - 13lbs is an excellent weight loss hun! Only one more pesky pound and you get your 1 stone sticker, yay! I'm following SW alone, but I'm already getting excited about being able to put stickers in my signature, yay! xxx

Hi everyone. Can I join please?
I'm 30, I live in Kent with my OH and gorgeous 16mth old daughter. I've always had weight issues but have just been getting bigger and bigger over the last few years, too much good living I guess.
I've been doing the SW plan on my own for 5 weeks now and its not going too badly. First few weeks had big losses,but the last 2 weeks have only been 1lb, then 2lb so it seems to be slowing.
Mini challenge for me would be 5lbs and I'd be really chuffed if I make it. That would be my 1.5 stone.

Like the idea of being part of a team to spur each other on. I know we can do it! xx

Evening all -Great to see the group growing -well hopefully shrinking, but you know what I mean

Well done on the loss Locs -stifado is a Greek beef stew with onions n red wine and spices ...its lovely and makes a nice change from good old beef stew

I only got the wii last Thursday and I have become addicted .... Im taken with step, kung fu, boxing and allsorts really.... I have done 55 mins on the wii fit and then various games as well....well they will keep putting rubbish on the TV ....

Right I will get off and catch up with everything on here...
Thats another day done..and 1 day closer to target folks

Morning ladies ...

Hope everyone has got up in a positive mood this morning -and are having a good day

I won't bore you with my meal plan -I stick that on my diary... but I have done 15mins on the wii fit first thing this morning and Im about to go and do a bit more ..
I don't know what it is but Im feeling sooooo motivated and possitive ...
My very first "diet" was SW way back when I was 14 -but I never did it again (did just about every other diet mind) - I feel like I have finally found the right programme at the right time ...
So far -in my 5th week and I haven't wobbled once -well apart from when Im on the wii .... it just seems to have clicked -Im sure that being on here with everyone aiming in the same direction will make that feeling last..
right enough waffle -have a great day everyone

Morning Capricorn, Hope your having a great day, im about to shake my wobble on the wii too! I always do a 20 min walk and then loads of step, i love the step!!! Im off uni/work this week, so its lush having time on my hands to relax! Just had a lovely brekkie, best sausages ever, with roasted tomatoes and a poached egg. Mmm! Gonna try and have a bowl of pineapple now too, although might wait until after i have exercies. Ooh, i might have a nose at your diary if you dont mind, always good to get meal ideas!

Good afternoon ladies!
Unfortunately it's work for me today just came on here to vent a little bit about how much I don't like my job!
Also to ask some advice/reassurance. I an going to lunch at Wetherspoons with my friend tomorrow. Now I KNOW wetherspoons is the food of the devil bit I also know the 3 bean chili is only 4 1/2 syns so I can have it but I feel terribly naughty and k just need to know that k really can have it? You know sometimes you just need to be told yes it is okay!
Hope you are all having a lovely day!

Hi all

I'm working today and have been out of the office most of today without access to minimins! I really missed just nipping on.
Anyway, I'm having a better day than I thought I would as I knew being out and about would be harder than my planned meals and snacks at my desk. So far so good though. Having good old sausage and mash with onion gravy tonight so a nice low syn meal with my veggie sausages.
All this talk of the Wii is making me feel inspired. I'm going to sort out my Wii fit tonight and get the minutes clocked up. Have a feeling I need replacement Wii controller things but need to check. Will definitely do some exercise tonight though.
Feeling confident and positive today that this group is going to help me shed the pounds, so thanks everyone

Hi Ladies, nice to see everyone on here! Corsacar - 4.5 syns at wetherspoons is a bargain ha ha. You should not feel guilty/naghty at all hun, the beauty of sw is that you can also have a life, build it into your syns and youll be fine. But most of all, enjoy it. I went for pub lunch, similar to wetherspoons, and i had gammon steak, with jacket potatoe, side salad and it was lovely. And i counted it all as free. I checked that the gammon was grilled not fried etc, and i just had a blob of mayo instead of butter, so it was a few syns for that! Its the deserts that get me ha ha!!

Chelleb79 - well done on surviving the day, honestly, i used to work in an office and it is soooo hard sometimes. I worked with 5 men in an office and my gosh, they did not stop eating. It was torture, especially when i was strictly dieting, as in Cambridge/lighter life. You just get through brekkie and everyone then starts debating what theyre having for lunch! So i say good on you, it aint easy! I had to change the batteries in my wii last night, so now its all ready to go again, gonna go on a bit later, im aching from yesterday! xx

Hey losc! Thankyou hun, it's just very easy to worry about having a slow weight loss just because of one thing when really 4.5 syns is a lovely low syn meal as far as eating out goes!
How has your day gone?
I work in an office and I always make sure I have some fruit to snack o. Because eveyone else lives off biscuits and crisps all day!
How has everyone felt today?
