Hi. I need to sort my life out following the death of my husband a year ago. I have put on almost 2 stone and feel like a lump. I am not in a position to pay the charges to purchase the plan as additionally I am a pensioner. I saw somewhere something about a daily apple but did not...

Does anybody know the syns for Carte D'Or Romantica Caramel dessert or the tub of Carte D'Or Gelateria Yoghurt and Forest Fruits please.

All you have done is prove you are human. As long as you get back on plan the weight will not stay. We all have days like you the key is to call it a flexi day and get back on plan. Good luck.

Hi, I just saw a recipe in an old SW magazine for Rich Beef Cobbler. It looked lovely but I cannot find it anywhere. Does anybody have this recipe please. Thank you.

Can anybody give me some recipes ideas for using cottage cheese. I live in Spain and cannot find fat free but have managed to get low fat in Lidl. Thank you in advance.

I lost almost 5 stone and feel very good. Am keeping the weight off but for some reason I crave cake. Something that has never interested me before this diet. I will certainly make lots of these recipes over the next few weeks. I have been craving swiss roll but do not dare make that because...

I would also like to join. I live in Spain so have no support group. I have been maintaining for the past 3 weeks successfully but feel that I am almost staying on the diet because I am so afraid of putting on weight. Any bits of advice gratefully received. All I was advised to do was add an...

The other thing that is lovely and does not need liquid is shoulder of pork. You get a really decent roast pork meal for little money. I always use mine for beef. I live in Spain and silverside and topside is sold as braising steak so I buy a big piece and do as above. It is now the only way...

Hi Pommette. I was quite shocked to see my pattern because I am 65 and had a hysterectomy when I was 29. Left half and ovary so did not startt HRT until I was in early 40s and did not use it for long. My shape is totally different to the amount of weight I have lost, more like 2 stone in...

I have just posted on the "anyone in Spain" thread and said that I seem to have a strange anomoly each month. The first time I actually gained 3 lb although I had stuck to it but the following week I lost 4.5 lb so did not feel too bothered. Now a month later I lost 2oz so it seems to be...

I live in Turre and there is a slimming group here that is flourishing. The person who leads it is very very good although I must admit I do not actually go to the group but I go to her Aerobics and Pilates and she weighs me there. We have just discovered an anomoly with me that means each...

It is not a legal group because as you say it is not legal in Spain but the diet they all follow is SW. I had never done it before always liked Rosemary Conley but I must admit that it suits me down to the ground. Not looking for fast loss. I need to lose another 4 stone as I have lost 1...

Hi Pommette have you given up on the Spain thread. Very little activity. Where exactly are you? I live in Turre and we have a good SW group there run by a really good leader.

Well done Crazy Chick you must feel so proud of yourself. What diet plan are you on? The GI ones all seem fairly similar in terms of calories and I think some of her recipes are brilliant, especially the Green Thai Chicken. I love that but a lot of the recipes are so nice we have them even...

Hi everybody. I live in Spain so cannot join a class and do not want to do on-line so need support from all of you. I have been on SW and lost 9lb 2oz in 3 weeks and then by eating exactly the same way last week put on 3lb. It does not make sense. I have dieted using the RC diets over the...

I thought the Mercadona Mince contained cereal and so have not used it. I buy mine from a Spanish butcher who only minces decent stewing steak which is quite low fat. Be interested to know if the Mercadona mince is free. I bought a turkey there at Christmas and then discovered that they had...

I have been doing SW for the past 3 weeks and have manage to lose 9lb 2oz and truly have not felt as if I was on a diet. I have also started a low impace aerobics class and two Pilates classes a week and that must have helped. The motivation for all this at the age of 66 is crippling back and...
