Yes!!!!! Finally!!!! Close to tears tonight, after weeks struggling ive finally got my two stone award :D

Thats so like me, I always stuck at 10st2lb, cracked that this time :D but for me im wavering round 9.5 /9.1025. Driving me potty as 9.8 will be my 2st loss target that id had mind/heart set on for this Sunday :banghead:

Wi last night was a maintain, scales at home showing exact same as WI so they normally a pound heavier than consultants, fingers crossed I can keep this down for my mini target for this coming Sunday!! (been a hard week with *week heading in, so maintain been good to see really) - any...

Not as bad as anticipated, hard work paid off with the impending *week, ive maintained.

Must be doing some thing wrong if hungary?

You make it sound so easy lol Wish I had your success!

You will do it, it takes time, but worth it, im having same struggle again, albeit this time at the higher end of the 9's. Keep at it xx

Back from our week in Wales weighing 1.75lb heavier. Happy with that after the food ive had (eaten some things not had for ages, partly through choice/partly through the menu available) Ive got two weeks to turn this around and be down to my mindset target (9st 8lbs) for grandsons christening!!

Thats very good for two weeks :D

No I didnt see it as belittling x

I agree that by engaging and responding that im also to blame, that I understand, but that does not change how they are feeling nor their concerns, nor how when attempting to voice this how it makes one feel. Thanks for responding :)

Whoop!! Whoop!! 9st10lb at WI :D

Yea!!! 2.5 off :-D

Been good and had carvery, diet cokes, hopefully wont have to much detrement on wi later, congrats to the losses so far :D

Hi and welcome :)

Im sure you will :)

Hope you had a top time and the scales not too unkind :)

Good luck also :)

:D after two days running meals out (one I was naughty at, couldnt resist rhubarb compote cheesecake) I can say scales are being kind, 13.0 - half a pound lighter than wi last thur, so fingers crossed I can improve on this over the next couple of days :)

Scales where kind this morn with a sts from wi, thankfully!! Had lunch out yday, carvery followed by a naughty rhubarb compot cheesecake :rolleyes: suprised didnt chuck me out of scale range lol

Fantastic :D Well done!!

Hi and welcome :) Im down to where you are starting out at approx (9st 13.5lb) im heading downwards hoping to get around 8.5 eventually. :D

Sts is still a good place to be at even if you have been unwell :) Balance your food and fluid intake for coming week and im sure you will get some thing moving again :) Try eat more natural diuretic foods, will help drop any extra water.

Wow, fantastic :) Welcome :)

Thanks for your comment :) Im sure you will achieve your goals xx

Oh boy yes. Felt elated. But also emotional, if that makes sense?

Happy :D At my lowest weight in around 15yr at wi :D 9st 13.5lb !!!!

9st 13.5lb at weigh in tonight :D:D

Is pleased to anounce im now at my lowest weight in around 15years! 9st 13.5lb at official weigh in tonight :D

One small step at a time, you will do it :)

Hi and welcome :)

Not at all confident for tomoz evening wi :( Feeling rather large, scales last two morn shown increase from last wk wi. Ah well. What will be will be. Its better than where I was 10 week ago and thats all that matters :)

Mine a pound up from thur wi - it best go b4 this thurs :eek:

Hullo :) Welcome along :)

I treat by using SW recipes. That way some are fairly low syn. If you make a batch up you can have a small amount over a few days and not feel guilty :)

Its a "tick and move on moment" You can do it :)

Omg!! Thats amazing loss :D

Mine was same as wi, hoping to get it down by next week wi :)

Hope you are ok, each day can bring improvements xx

Try drinking more fluids xx

Good luck :)

Be warned - it is VERY green! Had funny looks when I had it mixed in pasta!

Lol I was the same! Ive mainly used it as a salad (not cooked) did put in a curry (advise just add it towards the end-goes mushy otherwise) I have blended it with quark to make a sauce for pasta also, you can chop it and put in omlete mix.

Spinach does seem to be working for several of my group members, yup defo increase your fluids. Fingers crossed for you :)

Try spinach?? Natural diuretic-might help?

Go for it!! Good luck :)

Fantastic!! Well done x

Would love to read how you are getting on?

Im at my two month point and so far 0.5 from losing a stone (as of last thur wi) hoping to have achieved that by this wk wi. Aslong as it coming off it good. I can tell more in inches rather than the weight.

Mine said 10st 5 3/4 this morn - hope it similar for thur wi but I doubt it?!

Im sure you will be :-D

Scales this morn when got out my pit 10st 5 3/4 boy oh boy I wish it will be that at thur night WI but I doubt it :-/

That sounds scrummy, will have to try it!

Me too!! Im sure if we push we can do it! (trying to have positive thoughts)

Oh boy - this sounding like me at the moment! Weighed myself every morning as I get up, then every evening this past week!! Im 0.5 from losing my 1st stone /3.5 from my 10percent body fat loss. Weight this morn was 10.5 3/4 Just know it wont be anything like that on thur weigh in, but heres to...

Started at 11st 8lb Now hit 10st 8.5lb!!! 0.5 from a stone off.. grr... Anyhow.. been a VERY long time since in the 9's ... always get to around 10st / 10 st 2lb and then give up.... Really need some one with simliar to keep me motivated, i need to push this time, i've not got a grandson that i...

Wow!! Fantastic ;-)

Wow how do you get such fab losses?? Well done :-)

Thats brilliant :-D :-D

Had a good loss (despite mother nature) 2.5 off :-D Grr 0.5 short for my stone award :'(

Aww bless. Hope she recovers soon x

I also wished id measured :-( I can tell that inches are coming off as now able to get smaller clothes etc, but weight wise bah!! :-/

Thanks - typical for me 'mother nature' visited this morn so dont know till tonight how bad it affected the scales :-/

Gained 1lb, so im pleased with that after the very naughty week this week :-)

I started 6week ago at 11st 8lb, last wi was 10st 10lb (STS for two weeks :-/) hoping get my stone off this thur wi :-/ though family/friends tea at taybarns with drinks later going to hinder :'( Everytime I try loose weight I get stuck and give up at 10st 2lb - determined this time to push...

Eekk - my brother back in UK till Thur, family and friends trip to Taybarns for tea tonight followed by copious amounts of booze :-o Thursday wont be looking like my stone award this week, specially with last weeks STS :-/

Aww thanks :-)

Sts for me :-/

Sounds like you are doing great, keep up the good work :-)

So far lost all my weight loss following the EE. Its workimg for me.

Hello :-) Still not tried the scan bran yet :-/

Congrats :-)

Phews!!!!!! Lost 1lb, so thats a relief!!!

Dreading it tbh, had blow out sat and sun then struggled since to keep on track, hoping for a sts :-/

Hi, well done :-) so far. Im on my fourth weigh in also this thurs :-/ Flabtofit - thanks for your support :-)

Thanks hun, suppose you are right, was good day.:-)

Really need a boot up bum from today! Had far to much food and drink yesterday watching the cup final - we won!! Whoo hoo! Hoping ive not undone all my hard work :-/ any suggestions before next thurs weigh in :-/

I have muesili with yoghurt, added to that is usually blueberries or banana, sometimes strawberries :-)

Spaghetti bolognaise :-)

If you use natural yoghurt instead of milk and put fruit on it you will find it more filling. :-)

Fantastic results everyone :-D

You can have the poached egg and toast (using brown bread as Hex B) but also try adding baked beans / tomato with it to boost your free foods / super free foods per meal. Hope this helps?

Preperation is the key... always plan ahead your meals / snacks, drink plenty of fluids ie water/cordial.

Thanks Flabtofit :) I'm so pleased... long way to go though...but it is heading in the right direction :)

Im beaming from cheek to cheek...another 3lb loss this week :)

Fantastic ...well done :)

Good luck :-)

Been twice and both times everyone had good time. It was very clean and food was good. We went in October and couple years later in April. Use the local bus as it cheaper way to go into town than taxi, it stops outside complex. The marina is nice also :-)

In Wigan :-)

MMM i really need to give that a go... let me know how you get on with it please :)

Kind of know where you are coming from.... i only joined 3 weeks ago.. so far ...we have the long term usual rep retire.. a stand in rep (who came across quite obnoxious with some people).. and i shall see what tonight brings at weigh in.... It's made it difficult to ask any questions... gain...

Just want to wish every one all the best with their weigh in's today :-)

Fantastic !! Well done :-)

I meant btw week 3 for SW not stopping smoking lol !!

Hiya, yup I know what you mean re the giving up smoking bit, but hoping it worth it in the end :-/ im on week 3 and got next weigh in tomorrow night. Im also new to forum :-/ good luck with everything :-)

Roasted courgette, pepper and aubergine with steamed pollack :-)

Well done on your achievement so far :-) good luck with your last hurdle :-)

Fantastic :-)
