Thread: DOING SW FROM HOME???

Good luck Charli

I use Boots to weigh in also - its great :-)

Bluebell

i go to boots to weigh in also, think the shop opens at 8:45 on sat morning and i'm there for 8:50 lol .. shops empty and i can just calm myself down take a deep breath and step on..
My next weigh in is this sat coming, see what damage xmas has had on me lol

I think because you can get so much support on here, then you don't need to pay £5 a week to go to the group. I think I have got the motivation I need as ive got a date that I need to do it by, and it's a realistic goal!

I used to go to group, but I found it all a bit boring really, so I'm much happier doing it online. Plus there's no added pressure about gaining. Obviously it's not something you want to do, but at least you don't have to discuss it with a load of strangers

Ive joined groups in the past but a new year means fresh ideas for me, I thought as I'm an old hand at slimming world i would try doing it from home and put the £5 each week into a jar to help towards the new clothes costs when my success shows, optimistic at least!!

That is a great idea Kimmykins - I think I'll start doing that as well!

Hi all, I used to go to group and I do enjoy going but my hubbie bn made redundant and £5 a week is extra food shopping money or petrol so I've stopped going. I wanted to start the gym or some exercise class but that's off till he is sorted. So not to be put off I am going to do sw from home and today I have started jogging. I do loose motivation quite quickly so hope to keep it up here and looking forward to getting to know you all c

I am also using the scales in Boots to get weighed.

ive tried it from home and couldnt my will power is low. did anyone gain over christmas

Hi sinead, there's a thread called "post your Xmas gain" on here which, although it has been criticised on other diet threads, i found it comforting to know ur not alone! I'm sorry I can't link u as I'm on my phone. The average gain looks about 5lbs gain over the festive period... I find out the damage today! Good luck!!

I used to use Boots for my weigh in too! I like the little report you get!

I asked DH for some good bathroom scales and a steamer for my present and now I do it at home.

My first weigh in today - 1.5lb off! The ticker has started moving to the right direction!!!

I weigh from home too and even use the same kitchen tile each time so i know there has been no variation apart from my eating and relative weight!!

Hey do you mind if i join in, i cant justify paying 5er a week to get weighed in but dont feel motivated when going it alone. Im going to go to class tomorrow for the new books and a wee bit of motivation xxx

I would defo like to join as I am unable to get to a SW class as I am a full-time student at university and a full time mum to my two boys.

I have all of the books I will weigh myself in boots every other week and feel that it will be really nice to give support in whatever way I can and also receive support.

A lot of people have mentioned that it can be difficult to stay motivated and keep on track at home.
So ladies what tips can we give each other that could help us be successful at home?

What about starting an exercise program ?
I've just started running, it's hard work and it makes me think twice about what I am eating x
