Thread: Not lost any weight in 3 weeks

Hi, I have been on SW for over a year now.. after falling off the wagon in November i got back on it in December. After having a 6lb loss in my first week i was obviously ecstatic! then weeks here and there i had a STS and 1lb loss here and there.
Since about a month a go i have not lost any weight, i have honestly been counting all my syns correctly, having all my healthy extra's, superspeed & superfree foods. I do exercise, usually have an hour of walking 4 times a week. I just don't understand why i am not losing weight?!

can anyone help?

its so very frustrating isnt it.

do you have a food diary we could have a looksee at? maybe you are missing something?

xx

I agree with showing us the food diary.
My other advice is about the exercise. You walk a lot as you've said, but I'm assuming you've done that for a while, therefore you're no longer pushing your body, your body is used to it. Try increasing the exercise perhaps? Walk up more hills? Put some swimming in there once a week?

How big are your portions? I know with slimming world we can eat as much as we want until we are full, but perhaps it could be portion size too? I've no idea, it's just a thought x

Good luck

i have been away for a while so i'm unsure whether the healthy extra's have been updated as i do it from home. xXx

It looks pretty good to me, but I am very new to SW so hopefully someone with more experience will have some more advice! I just wanted to mention that 2tbsps of extra light mayo is 2 syns

Also wondering why scrambled egg is your HexA? What is in it?

i use milk in my scrambled egg
i don't get the mayo thing, according to the jar it's 10 syns for a TBSP.. always gets me confused?

Maybe its a different brand or something? I checked the SW online database before I posted to double check, and it says that 1 tbsp of extra light mayo is 1 syn.

Looks okay to me too . Im sorry your having problems. Take your food diary to your next meeting and have a chat with your consultant. Good luck xxx

hellmans and tesco extra light mayo is 1/2 syn a tbsp, asdas is slightly more I think! X

Your food looks really good, not sure why you arnt losing. You are usually pretty good with the 1/3 super free per plate aswell, so can't blame it on that! Are you drinking enough water? X

Didnt know the different brands had different values! I just did a generic search. That'll teach me!

10 syns a tbsp?! That's not right. Do you mean 10 calls?
