I spent all week feelong awful about gaining only to lose 1.5lb at weigh in so clearly they are not reading the same as SW ones. I don't want to reduce my exercise, i really enjoy it and i feel loads better for it then i ever...

    SW and exercise

    I was wondering how people have found SW if you exercise a lot? I successfully followed SW when my smallest was born and got to target but stopped attending groups and have regained about 14lb. I tried a few times at home to follow it and would easily lose the first week then give up so i have...

    DOING SW FROM HOME???

    Tuesday Weighers

    It's no problem :) I'd have thought Christmas was a good tine to aim for. I have 3 kids so apart from ferrying them everywhere I don't do any exercise (I would like to but the small one won't be without me) I do all EE days because they are easy lol

    Tuesday Weighers

    Thank you, it took 3 months exactly, but I've allowed myself nights off for DH's birthday and mothers day etc so it could have been quicker.

    Tuesday Weighers

    -2lb! Quite suprised as I made the mistake of weighing at home and it said STS. So that's my 1 1/2st award and target. I know it's not a huge lose but I couldn't have done it without SW so I'm so glad I went. Now to try and maintain it!!

    Tuesday Weighers

    I am doing food diaries this week, I will be weighing in the evening not morning and if I can lose 2lb I will hit target. Last time I followed plan strictly for a week I lost 4lb so I'm hoping I can do it. If not just a lose would be good, so far I've lost every week except 1 where a STS so...

    Extra Easy: How could I calculate syns in pizza?

    DH convinced me (it didn't take much!) To have dominos last night. I am happy to just write the day off but I was wondering if there is a way to roughly calculate syns? I had a large thin crist meteor with no cheese so I'm hoping it won't be as bad as some of the other ones. The SW app is...

    4lb off :O I was thinking 2lb max as I've tried hard this week. I put it in to the website too early though and got SOTW & SOTM so can I change it myself of do I need to contact them? Only 4lb to target now

    Weighed in at start of class 0.5lb on. For some reason it didn't save though. Weighed in at end of class 0.5lb off I guess I have to go off the official saved weighed but I know I need to be on plan this week. Hopefully 1lb off next week for 1stone

    Tuesday Weighers

    I was so nervous about weighing tonight as i weighed in the morning last week and usually weigh at 7:30. I've not had a bad week but felt there wasn't enough superfree and too many sneaky syns (such as DH buying the wrong sausages and not mentioning it until i'd eaten 3! 3 syns suddenly became...

    Tuesday Weighers

    I weighed this morning as DH is out tonight and i'm not taking 3 kids to group! It was a different consultant, are her scales likely to be calibrated differently? and does weighinh on a morning make that much difference? I have had an awful week, not enough super free, massive (cheeseless)...

    Cruise PV Plateau? :(

    I havn't lost any weight now for over a week :( Is this a plateau? Im quite close to what dukan says is my "true weight" is it normal for things to slow down so much now? I've not cheated but i did discover my mother cooked the curry she gave me on Saturday with oil :rolleyes: but i wouldn't...

    may be a little tmi but getting down :-(

    Having kids has killed my boobs too, but as i've only just stopped BFing or being pregnant it's only just becoming apparent, I currently won't even let my OH see them, hopefully i'll get my confidence back, but it's the change which is the problem, they used to be really full and now they just...

    Cruise PV Do you ever allow yourself a "Night off"?

    It's interesting to hear peoples replies and differing opinions thanks. I will try my best to stick to getting as close to dukan friendly as possible without over worrying. My chicken tikka and some other tomato based curry i had the other night felt very naughty to eat yet listed all duken...

    Daily menus

    The way i look does not reflect my weight and height, trust me, people don't believe that i weigh as "little" as i do, i have always been around 8st2lb and looked healthy with plenty of meat still on me. I just want my jeans to fit again. I also did the "true weight" thing on the dukan website...

    I was just thinking, it's Valentines day soon, and OH's Birthday is the week after, i know he would like to go out for a meal and of course i would love to as well but i wonder what the affect would be on my diet? Do you allow yourself the night off for special occasions? I would only have...

    Cruise PV Dizzy spells serious ones

    I get dizzy spells when i have not eaten enough or mainly when i first wake up. Maybe try snacking a little more? Are you prone to dizzy spells anyway? I don't worry about them as i used to get them very often as a teen, even sometimes fainting, and it's only the past few years since i started...

    Those with families..

    I've only been doing it a week, with a 2 and 4 year old to look after too, i have been mainly doing them the foods they want, or making the meat part of the meal for us all and a smaller portion of carbs for them. Their snacks are not things i really enjoy much anyway, i deliberately let them...
