Hi ladies I'm afraid I'm going to be leaving minimins - I got a really shitty attitude message from them saying how it's against the rules to mention Facebook on here etc etc ! They've deleted my diary too ! Cheek ! I had no idea that everything we post is being snooped on! Can't STAND the...

Amazing KATSMAD !! Well done !

Thanks upndown ! However I'm prob not going to realistically stay on plan when on hols! As of 14/7 though OPERATION CHRISTMAS CRACKER SHALL COMMENCE !!!!

KentCat I'm sorry you're feeling so down about it. I've only lost 4 lb this year ! I keep gaining and losing the same 5 lb ! I've already lost a fair bit prior to jan though so not so bad. Totally understand how you feel - when I was at SW people who were straying off plan all the time were...

I've lost 3lb this week ! Can't believe it ! Was so pissed off I caved on my stupid 7 day diet after 1 day but I'd obviously had a good loss prior to it anyway ! It's fair cheered me up ! Back on propoints today :-) can someone please update my loss to say I've lost 4 lb now - actually it may...

Gosh meloncollie ! That's amazing ! Go you !! What plan are you following ? SW? Amazing x

[/QUOTE Upndown you're doing amazingly well ! That you on propoints now ? X

Honey ditch the ferrous sulphate ( I m assuming that's what you got ?) get to boots for some Spatone. It's very rare to get the nasty side effects with Spatone. It's simply iron rich water. it's completely natural and you just add it to OJ and drink. Tastes like blood / metal lol so you need To...

Oh it sounds AMAZING !!! Xx

Lol seems ferrous sulphate makes you constipated or in my case the opposite !! I'm terrible at taking mine so likely I will always be low !! How're you today honey ? Xx

Well done Sammy !!! Xx

You'll lose that soon autumn ! If only we could just stick with it instead of losing and gaining the same pounds repeatedly !!!! I'm doing 7 day horrible diet again prior to my hols in a week because I've left it too late to lose any more sensibly !! Idiot that I am !! Xx

Huge well done for coming back Cat!! You know you can do it !! X

Thank you honey - so nice of you !! Xx

Phew ! Glad you're okay !! I've been anaemic since had the twins 8 years ago ! Take the iron LAST THING AT NIGHT. Trust me it makes a difference - gives me the most awful stomach upset taking in the day. My GP told me it's because if you take it at night it's not "competing" with food etc. it's...

Kirsty / worried about you. You ok ? Xxx

Hope you're ok Kirsty ? Xx

Well done becki xx

Yes let us know Hun. Hope all is well. I hate waiting on results !! I worry myself silly and more often than not everything's fine! I've had elevated liver results a few times and it's been concerning but think it's caused by all the pain killers I gobble for my arthritis :-( waiting is the worst !!

Wow ! Amazing Kat ! Well done !

Thanks Sammy !!

Excellent :-)

This thread is dead lol x I'm back at my WW thread again x

Hi ladies - I've restarted my diary since I'm back doing WW ! Feeling super motivated !

Oh Kirsty ! It must be hard surrounded by those goodies all the time !! I've restarted my diary to keep me motivated !!

Thanks so much upndown ! How're you finding WW ?

Hi everyone - well done to all the losers ! Autumn it's great to see you back ! I'm (as of today) back to good old WW ! It def works best for me. I thought cal counting might be good for me but I'm getting concerned about how much sugar and fat I'm consuming ! I'm now 11.4 when I wanted to be...

Brilliant ! Well done ! Gee I'd love to be 10 1/2!!

Well done you !! I'm back to 11.1 so hope to rejoin this thread "officially" next week !!

Thank you and well done on the loss ! Xx

Oh sweet ***** I've just had a HUGE blow out ! 5 galaxy ripples in a row ! How is that even possible !! I must not buy multi packs !! I can't be trusted ! Sooooo angry and HATING myself now :-(

Good work upndown !!

I WI on Mondays now I'm using 245 cals tonight for a fruit n nut YUMMY !!! X

Well done Kirsty ! I was 12.10 this time last year approx. thanks for your support it's really motivating ! Going to give it my ALL till 7/7 and whatever I weigh at least I've done my best. I'm not doing my diary any more I'm mega busy just now but will keep up with you & Sammy here and autumn...

Wonderful news about your GD ! So so pleased to hear that ! I need my mouth wired shut never mind hypnotherapy !! Do you feel it's helped ?

Great to have you back. Very best of luck for your interview. I've now got under three weeks to lose 16lb ! So pissed off too!!

Oh Kirsty I know exactly how you feel but I've got 3 weeks only till my holidays I'm 11.2 and I wanted to be 10 so so bad :-( I'm now thinking I will be lucky to be 10.7 for my hols and I'm so bloody angry with myself. I'm here for support / vent any time you need it honey. Ps I'm doing 1380...

I'm really liking CC. I'm finding I can have plenty for 1380 so really hope it works ! Not sure I'm going to keep up this diary but I will def keep going on the 2014 thread to keep up with you lovely lot. I'm so busy just now. X

Thanks Sammy ! How're you ? Must catch up with your diary too! The format of my minimins app has totally changed ! No like ! Don't know how to "like" posts anymore ! Xx

Hi KMD found ya huni! You're doing very very well. Here to Join you xx

Hi everyone I'm starting a new diary over here in CC. I'm currently 11.1 and I've gone from 12.10 doing SW and WW but my loss has slowed as I approach my goal (10). I'm doing 1380 a day and I'm famous for faffing with the same 3 lb for weeks on and off up and down .... You know how it is ...

Well done Hala that's a brilliant loss ! Curvy .... Commiserations .... But it's hard when you're on hols :-( here's to a new week!

Sorry you've been having a rough patch featherweight. I have arthritis so I understand how hard chronic pain illnesses are :-( well done on the amazing loss ! You're doing so well ! X

Hi folks ! I'm starting to WI Fridays now - recently started calorie counting , I've gone from 12.10 to 11.1, my current weight doing SW followed by WW but fancy a change so CC now. I'd LOVE to get to 10.7 in the next few weeks if possible. On hol on 7/7 have a great week folks

Upndown I'm So sorry about your friend- very sad news . Have been there, it's awful. I hope your little granddaughter is okay too I have 11 to target now too! Let's DO IT !!!

Hello everyone ! I'm very sorry for leaving so abruptly- had a few personal issues going on.... Feeling bit better now. Okay so I shall start my diary again BUT I'm actually calorie counting now. 1300 a day using My Fitness Pal. I did ( of course ) gain ALL my big loss from the crazy crash...

I found it on NetMums - some were losing up to a stone !!! X

This is the plan I followed Kat. No idea re calories but some days it was about 6 weightwatchers points a day !! It's defo not something I'd do any longer than a week and there's protein and lots of fruit and veg but zero calcium so a supplements a good idea. I drank a lot of water to help with...

Well done feather weight ! Wow what an achievement ! CatA I'm sorry about your gain and your interview. I've been really miserable in a job before - I know how awful it is :-( something will come along. Hang on in there honey x

Thanks Kat ! I was doing a very low cal plan for a week. It was very hard going ! Back to WW from today ! X

Hello lovely ladies Can someone please update the list. I've lost six pounds this week. My loss should be 9 pounds ( it says 5 now but I forgot to add a gain at some point) x

Thank you Dia ! Happy to be here :-) my WI this morning- I'm 10.10 today. Sorry about your gain - just a teeny one though! Here's to a great week !

So easy too, upndown I even like cooled chilled savoury rice ! Could eat a whole pack in two minutes !

I used to make a yummy quiche type thing with cooked sliced potatoes on the bottom of a flan dish then fill with cottage cheese, roasted peppers, ham, anything you like then oven for 25 mins. Cut in wedges tastes amazing cold ! All zero syns. Have you tried the curry muffins ? Also amazing cold-...

Hi everyone ! I'm Nicola and I'm currently weighing in at 10.10. This is exciting for me as I've been faffing about at 11.3 or thereabouts for ages ! I was 12.10 this time last year and since then I've done slimming world, then switched to weightwatchers when I got totally stuck at a loss of 17...

It's NEVER too late believer ! Welcome x

Love to you too KATSMAD. Not fair so many of us suffer :-( xx

Thanks Loulou - amazing how many of us have mental demons :-( huge congrats on the fabby loss ! X

Sorry cat that's a shame :-(

Good morning everyone I've lost 2 lb this week. Delighted. Can some sweetie please update my entry to say 5 lost now( I think I never updated a gain at some point as it says 4.5 just now oops) thank you xx

Well done upndown ! 32 lb now ! Wow mrs, you're doing SO WELL !! X

Dyou think it'd be worth trying WW again autumn ? I'm using ultimate value diary app so I can do WW with no monthly fee. The app is £2.49 but WAY better than the WW one.

Funny how you can totally sicken yourself ! I get food hangovers lol ! Sometimes it's a good thing and makes you really crave clean eating again. Is your bet with workmates? It's a great incentive - good luck honey xx

Happy birthday autumn !! Have a lovely day xx

Oh Dolly poor you ! It's so worrying but do try to remember 90 odd % of lumps are benign..... I've had lumps investigated twice now so I know exactly how you feel and better to be safe. Xx keep us posted - not long till the 10 th

Away and put 11.75 worth of books into a bag and feel the weight of that ! It's a huge achievement ! I know you've had a wee gain but it's just a weeny one and you've done SO well!

Yes I do that ! It's so soul destroying when you know you have had a gain sometimes it's better not knowing and giving it 100% for the next week !

Sorry to hear that KentCat. It's hard for those of us who normally turn to food as a comforter and then suddenly we are dieting and Lose that crutch. I know that a big fat cake or bar of chocolate would really cheer me up, at least in the short term anyway. Hoping your mood is better tmrw and...

Will keep my fingers crossed for wed for you, CatA ! Best of luck ! Bubble great work ! 14 down ! Fantastic !

Good news Loulou and well done autumn in getting those jeans into the wardrobe ! Must be a great feeling ! I was such a numpty last night - the hubby went to shops and I asked for a standard pack of minstrels but he bought a huge bag as it was cheaper comparatively. I diligently weighed out my...

Welcome! Xx

Loulou the RNLI H 20 challenge sounds fab but I honestly am a bit addicted to my diet coke and with three young kids I NEED my coffee! Good for you if you do it honey x

Thanks Cat and good luck for next wed !! You're in hot demand ! X

It's crazy how fast this years going !! Can someone please update me on the list to say I've lost 4.5 now?! I lost half a pound this week! Not bad for Easter really lol x

Your food looks yummy philly! Huge congrats on your weight loss ! Oh I can't wait to be 10.4 lol !! Re your question on vit supplements. I take iron as I'm pretty much chronically anaemic since having my twins, then my daughter. I also take glucosamine as I have OA. I have recently began taking...

Lolololol ! Aye, a wee bit TOO good, autumn ! My dining room is literally crammed with chocolate thanks to the three girls ! I mean it's not mine to eat, but it's hard not to nick a bit when it's just sat there !! Did you ?

Autumn ! You're so funny - you don't enjoy THIGHS like that ! Pmsl xxx

Enjoy your Easter autumn ! You'll get back to plan soon enough

Oh no philly! What happened?! Hope all okay today ! Hey don't worry about the 5 points ! Use your weeklies that's what they're for !

Hi philly ! I will be your buddy :-D I just started a diary too ! We seem to have similar goals, I'm 5'3" too and currently 11.1, with a goal of 10. Ive been 10 and was a nice slim 10-12 then. I've already lost 1 stone 9, I'm using an app called Ultimate Value Diary which cost a one off of £2.49...

I've done it ! Started a diary in the WW section ! Just a bit excited lol

I'd actually LOVE to start a diary but don't know how ! I use my iPhone all the time not a PC / laptop and I'm not sure I get all the full access. Might look into it I love reading people's diaries I really enjoy writing and I think it'd be a good tool for holding you accountable !

Thanks for the support everyone. I actually STS so not so bad really! Back to one hundred percent for the coming weeks x well done everyone for the great losses x

How pissed off am I ? Been super good ALL week then slip at the final hurdle on a meal that I couldn't resist day before WI !! Plus get my TOTM 5 days early ! NOT FAIR !!!

KentCat sorry About your wee gain - like you say to only have gained once in 11 weeks is AMAZING! just a teeny blip x

Autumn have you had bloods done ? Any chance you could be anaemic ? Or deficient in vit B12 or D? I'm chronically anaemic since I had the twins and that can make you tired. Although I never feel great as I'm on pretty strong meds for my arthritis - sucks big time. Constantly in a lot of pain so...

Lol Loulou you're a masochist !! With three kids it's unreal the choc eggs we have here at Easter ! My dining room will be filled ! Yikes !

I once re bought a chocolate orange five times before christmas !!! Greedy cow !

Bubble that made me laugh! This is the first year me and husband won't get to eat our kids eggs ! They're now 7, 7 & 4 so they'll be on to us if we do !

I feel your pain autumn ! I am struggling just now but still determined to stick it out! If I can just lose ONE measly pound a week I will be at goal for my summer hols on 7 July! Just have to keep that in my sights ! Hang on in there everyone !

Wow! Superb bubble ! What a result !

Re the Nutella , the only reason I managed to stop at two spoonfuls was the jar was finished then ! It's highly addictive ! Forrero rocher in a jar mmm mm mmm !

Well done to Zeke! Never mind Loulou - not bad considering celebrations were had :-)

Digestives ! They are better covered in chocolate ! Or caramel and chocolate ! I ended up having two big spoonfuls of Nutella ! Should NOT have that stuff in the house ! That's my remaining 6 weekly pp used up !! 26 / day till thurs :-(

Welcome to Zigmaster ! Here's to a good week for you, and all of us !

Oh bubble at least you did it in style ! KFC ! That would go down a treat right now !! My husband is working today and counting down the minutes till he comes home and we can have tea !! Fingers crossed for your WI x

Eek really fighting the urge to go to the kitchen and Hoover up a pack of bourbons ! Feeling SO snacky today ! Determined not to give in but I HATE DIETING !!! Hope everyone's well today :-)

Fabby CatA ! New start for you and you're off to a great start ! Well done

Good luck CatA

Well done KATSMAD ! Wow 12.5 is superb you must notice a big difference now x

Well done Escapade and Dolly Rocker ! Great losses! Dolly you sure are rocking it !! :-)

You are sounding very positive autumn ! Good for you! The monthly idea is great ! Wish I could but I'm WAY too impatient lol x

Happy belated birthday Loulou !! Welcome safia !

Thanks autumn ! :-)

Thanks so much everyone - bubble I've been doing some weird hybrid of SW and WW ! I guess it worked haha :-) bought a bag of Scottish tablet at the gift shop when we were on a day trip today but I shared it out so only had 2 wee bits ! Mmmmm feeling virtuous ! My DH has began a kind of diet so...

Good morning lovelies ! I've lost 2 this week which I'm very happy about as it's been ages since I lost more than 1 or gained or STS! Can some lovely person update my entry? It should actually say I've lost FOUR pounds now ! Thank you xx

Hi Dolly Rocker ! Welcome to this thread x

KMD I very rarely eat out these days so when I do, I want to enjoy it and have something really nice or feels a bit wasted to me ! Enjoy your meal whatever you decide :-)

Thanks Loulou. I'd already lost a good amount - 17lb before I started on this thread so my weight loss has really slowed down now. I've only about 16 to get to goal now so REALLY hope to be there by July - fingers crossed !

Sounds like you did it in style though escapade ! Yum :-)

Cheers to that, upndown :-)

Well done on the 1.5 loss loulou - that's a good steady loss :-)

CatA I'm glad you're getting back on track and thank you for being so honest it really helps to know it's not just you and others are in the same boat! I'm pissed off it's 3 months later and I've lost 3lbs ! I could have lost my stone by now instead of faffing about and gaining and losing the...

Hi loulou! It's lovely to have you here on board with us. Big warm welcome to you honey and HUGE congrats on your loss so far. Xx

Well done autumn it's still a loss :-) you will be at the stone mark very soon !

Very well done on your great loss upndown ! You're on fire !! And wow CatA ! The cakes look fabulous ! Hope your DD loves them !

CatA I'm so sorry it was a No. It's really horrible when you've invested so much thought in a potential new job. Very recently I applied for a job which didn't work out (I desperately wanted it and actually got it but had to decline it which was a total roller coaster of emotions ) and I was...

Glad you enjoyed your meal autumn ! Quite right! I had my spa day at Gleneagles today - Flippin heck how the other half live ! It was AMAZING !! Since it was a huge treat I decided to ditch the diet and really enjoy the amazing food - had a fantastic day ! Back to it tomorrow !

Good luck CatA ! Fingers crossed for you ! Bubble - thanks very much - I weighed myself after day one and I'd lost one pound but this morning id gained it again !! MUST MUST MUST stop peeking at the scales !! It's a disease I can't help it !!

Autumn don't fret about the likes !

Well done to Autumn on your fabby loss and KentCat on your off scales result ! Great news for you both !

Hey Autumn ! You're a girl after my heart lol ! Well, using the 20 cals = 1 syn roughly , then they'll have 6 syns ! Not bad eh? I think because you can snap them into bits and suck them , you get a good wee fix from them ! We've got a big Tesco shop coming tmrw and I've got ingredients for a...

Yes good luck for tmrw autumn ! I'm on day 2 of SW and am really liking it ! Looking fwd with interest to seeing if I get a loss. It's a lot harder to just grab something than it is while doing WW but that's prob a good thing for me. I'm thinking it's much easier for me to do since I'm not...

Well done 2mn! Great loss !

Upndown you are a star !! I've messaged you, don't worry about the STS you're bound to show a catch up loss next WI :-)

Actually I may wait till Sunday- we are off to Gleneagles on Monday morning! I can't wait ! My husbands boss has given him his corporate membership card !!! So the girls are having a sleepover at granny's on fri night so me and Daniel can leave the house early and make use of all the spa things...

Forgot you were doing SW too upndown ! How'd you work out syns without a membership access - I seen something saying 20 cals = 1 syn is that right ? I'm doing a big shop Friday so going to start then.

Autumn how are you finding SW after WW ? I'm still wondering if I should change back ! Aaahhh I don't know what to do !!! Can't find my blooming book either although pretty much everything's free lol and I have a collection of dinner recipes from when I last went to class. I can't afford class...

Good luck for your interview on thurs CatA ! I'm trying hard to stay away from Darcey's cake that's left !!

Well done bubble, Zeke and littlemissnaughty! Bubble pls can you add one pound on for me when you update please? Huge thanks

Good morning ! I love how sweet and honest everyone is on here ! So grateful to have this place :-) well after Darcey's birthday I decided I would weigh myself .... Gained only one pound which considering I guzzled all sorts of nonsense plus it's TOTM, not too bad ! Can someone please update my...

Oh upndown I just ate approx 12 vol au vents !! Gone in a mouthful lol !!

Right ladies ... I'm just totally skipping WI tmrw! With Darcey's birthday today I've eaten like a , well like a kid at a birthday party lol !! I'm actually considering going back to SW this week for a wee shake up. Can't find my book though - will need to remind myself of the basic guidelines...

Oh you're too kind upndown ! Thank you :-)

Totally ! Heehee! Actually really enjoyed it ! No loss this week I can guarantee

Gorgeous pic autumn ! X

KMD thanks for all your advice re the cake ! I'm really happy with it ! For my first ever I'm pretty pleased ! Darcey's going to LOVE it ! It's covered in silver lustre sparkly dust which doesn't show up well on the photos ! Looks a bit like flour lol! Xx

We'll done losers !! Autumn ! The tens! v happy for you !! I'm really ill just now and yest ate a load of crap - comfort food- more likely to be ten tonne on mon now than in the tens

Well done on your fab loss upndown ! You're doing so well ! CatA good luck for your interview !

Sorry you're disappointed KentCat I know it can be so utterly disappointing and soul destroying but try to see your weight loss as an average over one month rather than weekly. Sometimes it can take a couple weeks to take effect. I'm sure next week you'll have an even better loss. Have you taken...

Well done featherweight! You're on a roll! Wow !

I got some HUGE strawberries today which are also incredibly sweet and tasty. Dipped in melted white choc and hundreds and thousands ! Then put in fridge to set. Wow what a treat! And not too naughty ! They're really for the kids but I've nabbed a few lol

Check us out ! Even our lists getting trimmer

I'd say so Cat - easy to add back if they wish to return

Upndown I'm not really a true size 12 yet ! Just lucky trousers lol ! I double checked to see they hadn't been out on the wrong hanger

Thanks autumn ! And good going on your SW. I'm jealous I love slimming world chips

Here's to a new week KMD !

CatA I agree re the folks who've left us. I'd had the same thought. Everyone else agree that maybe we ought to delete those who've never updated ? If anyone comes back , of course , they could easily be re added but it would just be a lot easier to view the list if it was just those still...

Thanks Sammyanth and good luck for tomorrow. I'm planning on wearing the trousers inside out to show the world I'm in a size 12

Littlemissnaughty! You're not naughty at all, are you ?! Going great guns ! Well done !!

Thanks my darling

Good work everyone ! I lost one pound ! Seems piddly but I did just buy a pair of size 12 trousers so I'm over the moon !! 12- it's been a while can some gorgeous person pls update me on list to say 4 lb lost. (It currently says 5 but I'd gained last week and didn't update :-( ) thank you !! X

Superb KMD thanks a million ! I will post pic once done at the weekend xx

Hey Missa !! Can I get back to you and answer that after tmrws WI ?!

CatA ! Ugh. TOTM has so much to answer for. Mine is looming too :-(

We forgive your sins, Autumn ! I'm exactly the same. In fact last night I had a "f it" moment. My wonderful husband (aka the fat feeder lol) bought me TWO bars of Scottish tablet !! Wtf?! I know he's trying to be nice- he says "but you can have just a little bit at a time " eh, no! If I could do...

You can borrow audio books from the library near us- is that an option ?

Good luck starting on SW autumn. I always used my syns for a sweetie once the kids were in bed. I ate free food most of the other times. I absolutely loved diet coke chicken, chicken fried rice, chilli, pizza chicken, mmmm got some amazing recipes from SW. The mag is really good for ideas. I...

Good morning 2mnn it's good to have you on board, you're very welcome here ! Maybe some lovely soul can add you to the list - my iPhone won't let me do it (if anyone can copy and paste the list using an iPhone I'd love to know !)

Dearest KMD - may I pick yer brains once more ? best way to stick on black stripe bits of rolled out icing onto the cake once it's got the white ready rolled icing on it - jam ? I'm attempting a zebra look cake for my little girls 4th. She loves zebras !

Mmmm a little kinder choc bar broken into 5 and slowly melted in mouthfuls of coffee... A pretty good use of 3 WW points :-)

I did extra easy autumn - wish it'd kept working for me !

See autumn, you've made good choices when you could've went nuts so you're doing better than giving yourself credit for. I loved doing Slimming World- I absolutely loved all the recipes and the "free" food wAs amazing ! But after losing 17lb I just stuck and my weight didn't budge despite...

If only I knew the answer, Autumn, I'd happily share :-( it's a new week, a new clean slate. Go for it!

You lost 3lb upndown ? Huge congrats that's amazing ! I find it hard to tell whose is whose and old from new with the copied posts ! Sorry for missing it! What a magic loss !

Wanted to share a wee non- scales milestone. I was out today with Darcey at her dance class/ soft play then onto the library and it's lovely and warm here. I was walking around in just jeans and tshirt and I realised for the first time in a really long time that I felt, more or less, comfy in my...

CatA creme eggs are little minxes ! I can't say no either

Autumn - I think we are actually the same person ! Lol. We will get through that 11 stone barrier soon, pal !

Huge thanks again KMD ! Wow your cakes look amazing ! I will post a pic of Darcey's once it's done :-) Joanne your mums cake is lovely too ! Can't believe that was your first attempt ! Clever ladies both of you ! Well done on the losses posted ! We are having some lovely spring weather here...

KMD do you use stork or another marg ? Xx

Oh KMD thank you thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of that info ! I will def follow your recipe to the dot ! Thanks sooo much ! Oh I'd love to see your creations - please do ! Do you put the mix in two tins - or did you mean cut one in half ? Huge thanks again ! Oh and one other...

Your welcome ! It's called ultimate value diary and it's really amazing! Hey can I pick your brains, KMD? Being a wonderful cake expert ! I'm trying my - first ever - birthday cake soon for my youngest little girls 4th birthday ! I'm planning on making a round 8" cake and use ready rolled icing...

Well done on your loss KATSMAD! KMD I've "only" another 16lb to go. My goal is 10 stone. If I just got down to it I'm sure I could be there in 3 or 4 months ! Just read you have a cake business! Wow! I love to bake for my girls but I can't resist eating it ! I can thoroughly recommend...

Hi KMD - I love the weight watchers plan and do great on it when I'm not bring stupid and sabotaging my efforts !! I've lost a total of 1 stone 8. I've been on here since jan I think and since then I've lost a total of 3lb ! Should have / could have been a lot more than that but I keep faffing...

Welcome aboard KMD!! Good to have you here and congrats on your 2lb weight loss x

Good morning ! I've changed my WI day to today as I've had a few stupid days and don't want another day the same so starting anew today rather than waiting till tomorrow. I've gained 2lb. I will break the 11 stone barrier and be 10.13 next week ! Again !!! Autumn I'm just a tube ! I will be so...

Ugh.... Naughty day !!! It's been a typical Sunday surrounded by food and not much willpower :-( very much doubt a loss is on the cards this week :-( will be over the moon with STS now !!

Thanks Sammyanth good luck to you too!! Upndown glad you liked it ! I have golden syrup in a squeezey bottle left over from Shrove Tues- works a treat ! Sammyanth I bet you'll love it !!

Thanks for the crossed fingers autumn - you too ! Upndown did you try it ?!

JUST GOT TO SHARE!! I've just discovered possibly the best ever lush thing to eat AND ITS ONLY ONE WW PROPOINT !! You HAVE to try it ! Chop up a banana, pour over one tablespoon of golden syrup, microwave for approx 45 seconds ! Result ..... Warm, soft banana in lots of sweet runny syrup! It's...

AUTUMN ; Well I was 11.0 on tues (11.2 this morning !!) see- it's stupid weighing daily- totally soul destroying ! I'm with you, going to only jump on on a tues morning. I only count the tues WI as official but you can set yourself up for disappointment right enough! I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE to get...

That's great autumn ! Must stop smashing up my phone I understand how frustrated you are with slow loss- one pound is great but it takes TOO LONG !! I'm 11.0 now but thinking I will never be in the tens!! I'm also going to stop my stupid pointless daily weighing habit !

Aaah, Autumn, I was still hungry after lunch so I had a few mini cheddars then a fun size Milky Way, then just couldn't stop ! I thought "f it "! I've ruined it now may as well enjoy it ! Crazy I know ! I will get back on it tmrw !!

You sound very disciplined CatA ! Good for you! I've just had a big style greedy blow out. No more treats now till Tues! Will be on a very tight leash till tues :-( very angry with myself

Go big or go home ! Love it, Autumn ! I sure did ! 16 points of chocolate heaven haha! It was Flippin ace !!

I'm having my treat of the week night tonight ! Large bar of Cadburys Fruit and Nut! Don't mind if I do !

Tesco :-)

You're right,upndown, we are all horrible to ourselves! 2.75 this week and 19 overall !! Go you! Absolutely fab ! Well done to Kentcat too ! At the end of all this we must post our before n after pics ! Go us !! I just spent 4 points on one of those amaaaazing caramel waffles you warm over your...

Thanks upndown , autumn and sammyanth! I get frustrated with my very slow loss since jan but I guess I'm doing ok since it's close to two stone overall ! I'm trying really hard this week x

Well done on all the losses and welcome newbies - I've not been on for a few days and there's screeds of new stuff to read ! I need to catch up! Lost one pound this week CAN SOME GORGEOUS PERSON UPDATE THE LIST? Thanks so so much - I should be 5lb lost now ! (1 stone 10lb altogether now - it's...

It's hard autumn when you don't know exactly what's in meals. I tend to break down the recipe best I can and really over estimate the values. I had a yummy meal at my MILs last night and I did that. Was really good and had veg and no potatoes and raspberries alone instead of trifle !!

Well done CatA - great loss

Chinese for sure ;-) hope you enjoy whatever you chose x

Oh autumn a KFC !! I'm so jealous ! I'm not enjoying having no weeklies left up my sleeve :-( like you said - it'll be an interesting wee experiment seeing how the last 4 days of the week on only 26 effects the scales.

Get well soon CatA !

Well done newniki and autumn. Autumn you've lost 7.25 lb !! Go and fill up a big bag with books or something and see how heavy that actually is ! It IS a lot. You don't have much to lose - like me - it s going to be slower to come off. You're doing just great x

Oh yes, autumn ! I did ! It's funny, you think 49 is a lot but they're not long and being used up if you're eating like you did pre diet !! Will need to be super careful from now till tues !

Good morning !! I've used all 49 of my weekly points over the first two days !! So now I'm on 26 a day only for 5 days ! Yikes ! Who knows - maybe it'll work out well x

Well done upndown ! Another pound + gone !!

Well done miss14 - steady, modest losses are the way to go! I'm awful for wanting 2lb a week but it's maybe more likely to stay off if you do it nice n slow n steady :-) x

We'll done Kentcat xx great result

Kent cat good luck for your WI and enjoy your treat night with your BF tmrw night x

Uncle john boy is that Slimming World ?

Might try and end the week with at least a few weeklies left- I'm having my WI day treat tonight - 16pp worth of blissful cadbury fruit and nut - helloooo!! Can. Not. Wait. :-)

Thanks CatA and upndown x might try and use very little/none of my weeklies - see how I go. I only get 26 daily points so I might struggle. Probably being very unrealistic here !! It's VERY unlikely

Lost one pound this week. Was hoping for more but I'm going to stop having goals in my head other than my end goal. A healthy loss is 0.5 - 2lb on weight watchers so I'm never going to do 2lb every week! I've been 100% on plan so I'm doing my best. Going to go easier on myself. Can someone...

CatA that's amazing you have shrunk from an 18 to 14 since last year ! You must be feeling great !!

Poor little lad autumn ! Sad :-( Size 8, wow ! Think my naked skeleton wouldn't even fit an 8!!

Big well done hugs to little miss (not so) naughty and bubble ! X Thank you upndown

Unclejohnboy- welcome to this thread, you'll find lots of support here :-) which plan are you going to follow ? My friend lost 6 stone in a year so YES YOU CAN DO IT !!! Good luck ! You'll be grand x

Thanks autumn and upndown for your lovely words - I do try to be a great mum (I had a terrible childhood so want my own girls to be happy and secure which they def are :-) ) yes it's so important not to have a negative attitude around food and kids - girls are SO impressionable. We never mention...

I pointed out all the things I've baked and they're 6pp - so not actually that bad for something so delicious ! Problem is, they're too Moreish so better not to start in the first place !! I did taste them, but just a teeny wee corner and used a few points to cover it. I iced the Madeira cake...

All the better ! Great! Have decided I'm a masochist. I've been baking for the kids today- lemon drizzle cake, blueberry and crunchy coconut loaf and iced Madeira cake.... Talk about living vicariously through your children torture !!

Absolutely fantastic CatA ! Well done xx

Well done everyone on the great losses ! Autumn so glad you're right back on track, pal ! My wonderful husband bought me a bag of the most lush white choc passion fruit truffles for valentines day ! Mmmmm but I will - try- to share them out ! Prob about 6 points each lol x

HEMam ! 15lb is amazing !! Autumn I don't think you're being melodramatic at all ! I totally get the same. You invest a lot , emotionally, when you're dieting. It's impossible not to get a bit anxious when you're trying so hard and hoping for a loss ! Was at a ceramic painting cafe/soft play...

Well done on all these losses !! Upndown ! 4.5 !! Wow ! Xx

Thanks upndown ! Can I be upndown2? going to REALLY TRY not going up, only down from hereon in ! X

Thanks autumn ! I'm really pleased - fingers crossed for you getting 2.5 ! X

Thanks v much for updating list CatA x Well done for being 100%

Lost 2lb this week ! Woohoo! Could some lovely person update the list for me ? Silly iPhone won't do it properly ! Thanks a million. Ps my entry says pledged 19, lost 5. Sadly it should now read pledged 19, lost 3!! This is because of my faffing about in jan ! I'm only 3 down from my starting...

Joanne don't worry 0.8 is a teeny gain! I gain at least 2 at TOTM! Hate it! Bet you'll have a great loss next week ! Jo Kate don't put too much pressure on yourself - if you're doing your best you can't do any more ! Google a photo of one pound of fat and remind yourself how great it is to lose...

Ah but I'll be jealous of you come Fri when you've got 49 and I've got 7!! X

Try not to let it get you down bubble, know how you feel, though, when I WI tmrw, the result will set my mood for days lol x Autumn I feel desperate once my weeklies start running low ! Can't believe some folk don't use them lol ! My WI day tmrw - can't wait to blow some weeklies tmrw night !! X

Upndown that made me laugh Well done little miss naughty !

Go for it CatA !

I got mine in Tesco :-)

Oh the fish n chips are magic ! I remember eating them as a kid YEARS ago ! Think they've been re released. They're little salt n vinegar flavoured savoury cracker/biscuit things. You get lots in a pack and they're really flavoursome ! I love them, been having a pack a day for weeks lol x

Autumn - My low point treats are fish n chips crisps/snacks 3, curly wurly 3, cadbury freddos 3, quavers 2, raspberry ruffle bars 3, crunchies 5. I love all these and think they're pretty good "value". I've started having sugar free jelly with tinned fruit set inside it, after dinner. It's free...

Well done the moog ! Good going ! Hope you enjoyed your galaxy autumn ?! I ended up having about 4 aero balls and shared the rest with The kids and the husband ! Pretty proud now I managed it ! I have gone over my weekly pro points by 4 so I'm going to reign it in today and mon in the hope that...

Autumn - I go all stubborn and silly and refuse to eat when we fight. It doesn't last sadly !! The wonderful, but very misguided , man came home from work with a pkt of orange aero balls for me ! My favourite ! I love the bones of the man but NO!!!! Now I have to resist them when my will power...

Well done sophsmum ! Great loss !

Upndown - love your wise words and autumn - be kinder to yourself. You're not stupid and you DO have self control otherwise you would've gone bananas on the Chinese food ! I saved myself 6 weeklies last night by falling out with the husband and going to bed early lmao ! Xxx

Well done Jo Kate ! Great loss !

Welcome tweetypie ! Good going on your weight loss so far !

I've come on here to chat as I was sooooo close to really pigging out! I had an apple and a WW biscuit instead but I really want to EAT! Dinner in 2 hrs I will try hard to resist !

Autumn don't let it slip away ! Give yourself a wee kick up the bum and move on. Don't be hard on yourself - I lost one pound in the whole of jan with all my faffing so I know how you feel ! I'm so angry with myself too. Just start anew today. Don't wait ! October will come and you will regret...

Good luck for your fresh start cat x

Autumn and upndown you both are just like me ! Nice to have folk to relate to ! I'm feeling awfully virtuous then I remember it's only thurs morn and my wi day is Tuesday ! Long way still to go ! I'm really wanting a good loss this week. I lost a grand total of one pound in jan with all my...

I need to get space raiders I love them ! I'm eating fish n chips crisps / biscuits just now - think they've been re released as I haven't seen them in shops for years - they're delish ! Lots in a pack for 3pp and really flavoursome ! Yum ! Hope you managed to dodge the meeting lunch buffet -...

Hi Skyvicky - subscribing well done on your weight loss so far! I'm following your diet as I'm doing WW too so like to pick fellow WW dieters brains oh and my name is Nicola and I'm a creme egg addict !!

I'm really looking forward to weighing in tmrw and starting afresh with a clean slate. Again. :-( I've made a really sucky effort for jan. Feb here I come ! X

Hello ! Welcome - well done on your 11lb weight loss so far - great start.

Thanks upndown - you're lovely. I now have a ghastly cold ! The hits just keep on coming lol x

Thanks so much for the support - it really is appreciated, upndown I tend to binge if I'm upset/ emotional - it's a very unhealthy relationship with food. I wasn't hungry at all in fact I was feeling sick ! I ate about 3 pkts crisps, 6 (!!!) kit kats and 3 little cake bars OMG! Then since the...
