Hi Guys!
I joined SW 3 weeks ago and managed to lose 7lbs in the first 2 weeks. I`m really chuffed with this however.. weighed in last night and had gained 1lb:sigh: I was a little gutted to be honest.

I had been sticking to the plan doing EE but have given the Sticky thread (Common SW misconceptions put right) a good read through last night and have found it so helpful. The main thing being that Free Food is actually not completely "unlimited"duh!

So will be making better choices this week and meal planning my way forward. So happy to have found you all:)

Good luck take each ay as it comes and remember at least 1/3 superfree on every,plate
 
Good luck. :)
The general rule is make sure that 1/3 of what you eat is super free. If you follow this I'm sure you'll be fine. Also make sure to keep hydrated x

Thanks guys!

Been upping the superfree (loads) since my WI and have been trying to drink plenty of water MelonCollie.

Feeling a bit more organized and hoping to get a better loss this week.

Congrats on the great losses you have both done brilliantly! It`s so encouraging when you see that it really works.

I`ve never managed to stick to any "diet" before, never lost anything more than a stone in years, it`s always been a half hearted effort on my own. This is my first real serious attempt to do something about my size. I`m just so sick of feeling the way I do due to my weight and sick of it holding my life back!!

This sounds exactly like me!!!

I started4 weeks ago. I lost 7 1/2 lbs in first 2 weeks then the 3rd week I put up 1/2 lb. if anyone told me they put up 1/2 lb I would say, it's fine you'll lose next week! But at the time I was really gutted and disheartened for a few days.

Then the next week I had a very bad weekend (all you can eat and drink including champers! And I just cannot resist the bubbles) then I had a few days to recoup after. I still lost 1/2 lb.

I do understand it's frustrating, especially at the beginning of the journey but sometimes life just gets in the way :-( We have to just persevere and hope for a good loss next week!,

Ahhh loves me some bubbles too!

I`m hoping that I`ve managed to get my head round the plan now. It`ll tell on WI on Wednesday I guess.. and if not, I may have to start a diary see if someone can show me where I might be going wrong.

Did`nt find this weekend too much of a problem even though it was a little stressful. My sister has just had a gastric bypass last week and has`nt been feeling very well so have been visiting her to keep a check on things. I had a Takeaway last night for dinner. My consultant had said that it would be 5 Syns? I had chicken with mushrooms and boiled rice, nothing extra not even a prawn cracker!

Making a large pot of soup today and will make enough to stick some portions in the freezer for lunches.
