Ello all, I'm constant star 31 and a mum of 2 . I had recently been found exante to be too hard for me :/ I had my daughter September and was 11st. I've now got down to 10 and looking to be 8st 10 so I have 1st 4lb to loose, I hope I can do it . I've signed up today with a friend. I'm in maternity leave so I've got time to study all the bits , It's all a bit daunting my to be honest but I'm glAd il be able to eat. I wonder how long it will take to loose weight.. I'm keeping a photo diary of food to keep me on track!!

Felt hungry today so I've had 3 x toast with cottage cheese through out the day . Used 6 syns. Only syns I've used today x
 
Morning all! I've woken up worrying I'm not going I loose weight! I just can't see how I'm going to eating all this food!!I've been 100 % sw for 3 days and my weigh ins are thurs so I guess I got to wait and see. Morning brekkie is 35g oats ( hex b) mixed with muller fat free strawberry :) Lunch later is tobys carvery. I've been researching and it's seems I'm good with meat and most veg which is steamed ( not cau cheese and stuffing) and a couple of potatoes that I can syn. My son always eats my Yorkshire anyway. On the the 26th I'm off to centre parks and need to have lost a bit to feel comfy in clothes and a swim costume! My target areas are arms stomach and thighs! I'm doing no exercise this week will start with my kettle bell on thurs after weigh in so I can see what happens on this diet! X

I think a lot of us worried in the first week :)

How can I possibly eat all this amazing food and lose weight? You really can....it's why SW isn't really a "diet". It's about re-educating yourself about what's good for you.

Looking forward to seeing you post your first loss :)
 
Thank u for your response! I agree it's changing the way I see food rather than diet and I'm enjoying cooking!! :) just hope I loose a couple of pounds a week! I like that fact I know what's in food. I know it's not full of sugar and oil :)
 
I tried to be healthy. Mustard =0.5 syns, 2 potatoes =4 syns and gravy 1.5 syns total 6 syns!

I've just made the sw doner kebab and put it in fridge to kinda ' set' will let u know how it goes!!
