I think for me its cutting out the junk I used to gorge on and limiting the dairy and fibre. Also the change to sweetener has had a huge impact!

Well I gained 1.5, first gain apart from Xmas. Bit disappointed but was to be expected as I had a rubbish week. Back on the wagon this week.... no excuses!

Honk Honk! For today and yesterday :)

I was just wondering how many syns some of you use on average each day? Do you aim to stick to a certain amount and have you experimented with the amount some weeks? I am curious as to how syn amounts affects individuals weight loss.

Totally agree, my original Target was 11st, having got there and being boney already, I feel certain that 10st will definitely be enough x

I'm only 5ft 2 and a half tall so 10st is only 2lb within my healthy BMI, but on the upside the last time I weighed 10st I was 16 (12 years ago!)

Honk for yesterday after a terrible week!

Hi I am so pleased to be able to finally join this thread! I weighed in with half off today at 10st 13.5lbs, my starting weight was 14st 1lb, and my Target weight is dead on 10st. I am only 5ft 2 and a half tall so at 10st I will be at the top end of my healthy BMI with 2lb to spare lol, so time...

Now i can finally say goodbye to the 11s! Half off for me today taking me to 10st 13.5lbs! Lots of luck to you all and hope to see you very soon :)

Half a pound off for me today. It finally takes me into the tens to 10st 13.5lbs, down from starting weight of 14st 1lb. I am now 13.5lbs from target!

Good luck to all for tomorrow x

1.5lb off last wednesday, taking my loss to 3st 1lb and getting my 3st award, I weighed in at dead on 11st, so desperately hoping that this Wednesday I will be able to get into the 10's!

I weighed in at dead on 11 last Wednesday, got my 3st award so desperately hoping I can leave this group this Wednesday!

Honk :)

-1.5lbs yesterday, now makes me 11st 4.5lbs, hope I can exit the 11s in the next 2-3 weeks

-1.5lb for me yesterday :)

Well, weigh in tomorrow. A bit worried, I didn't go last week as my daughter was unwell and I haven't had a great 2 weeks, so in actual fact I'm dreading tomorrow but preparing myself for a gain. Don't get me wrong, I don't want a gain (lol) but if that's the case, then I'll just suck it up and...

I feel amazing now, I've dropped 2 dress sizes and I live by the motto "nothing tastes as good as skinny feels"

1.5 off for me today, I. Now weigh 11st 6lbs, a total loss to date of 2st 9lbs

1.5 off for me today, I've now lost a total of 2st 9lbs :)

I was excited about WI tomorrow then I had a breakfast at morrisons this morning, boo!

I'm so tempted to weigh myself on the Wii tonight for a sneak peek.... but fear I shall be disappointed as I'm sure I'm bloated, mother nature is lurking :/

I've been having the shredded wheat bitesize with fruit inside them

I was having a great week til I realised the cereal I have been eating for breakfast is not a healthy extra, I have even been weighing it too! Now I am super bummed because now I feel like I've managed to ruin the whole week through my own stupidity

1.5lb off for me, want to try for a 3lb loss this week so o can get my 2 and a half stone award next week, but we'll see

All you can do is see how things go, I'm sure you will be fine x

35g nestle shredded wheat fruitful 250ml semi skimmed milk Diet Pepsi Coffee BBQ pulled pork with lettuce, tomato, cucumber Sweet French toast with cherries and activia 0% fat vanilla yoghurt Bolognese pasta bake Quark, sweetener and strawberries 10 syns for the day

One is definitely dreading tomorrow, what with breakfast at IKEA and dinner and dessert out at hungry horse, both on Friday might I add! I hold out no hope whatsoever for tomorrow, very disappointed in my lack of restraint and am sure it'll just be depressing tomorrow.

Thanks for the inspiration, I did a bolognese pasta bake in the end. I did garlic bread too for everyone and was very good because I didn't have any of it lol

Just made your French toast, it was amazing and only 4 syns! Very impressed :)

Can anyone help me out? My family is coming up for an impropmtu dinner today, any ideas for a slimming world dinner to feed 8 that's quick and easy to cook?

I eventually told everyone around me. I'm not particularly bothered by this, I find it quite amusing when we are out for dinner (for example) with friends and they say "how can you possibly be eating that and still lose weight?". Gives me a chuckle!

Hello

Just a UK break in the isle of sheppey this year as budgets are stretched with home improvements

Well we booked our holiday for 25th July. I aim to get to my Target of 10stone by then. That gives me 6 months to lose 1st 12.5lbs. Hopefully achieveable.

Haven't actually considered swapping healthy extras each day. I just need to shake things up a bit personally. But am on track to do that, did a massive and varied grocery shop today, just got to get tomorrow out the way, what with breakfast with friends at IKEA and dinner out at hungry horse...

Hi everyone, I'm new to this thread with a loss of 1.5lbs this morning bringing me to 11st 12.5lbs. Bring on the new week!

Well 1.5lb off for me this morning so its bye bye 12s! Good luck to you all and hope to see you in the 11s very soon x

1.5lbs off for me today which was very very surprising but welcome

It's not easy to try and have confidence in ourselves. I don't have scales at home and a member of the social team at group always comments on how terrified I look lol!

I wouldn't have been too bothered but I was walking my 5 and 7 year olds to school, my son arrived at school drenched bless him lol

I shouldn't beat yourself up over it hun! We've all been there, well I certainly have lol! It's a learning curve :)

Well weigh in tomorrow, not overly confident that I will be waving goodbye to 12s after my pants week :(

Hi, I've been doing Slimming World for 14 weeks now, starting weight of 14st 1lb. I weigh on a Wednesday morning, and as of last Wednesday I weighed in at 12st dead on. So that's a loss of 2st 1lb. I still have a fair way to go as I am only 5ft 2ins tall. I thought I would start a food/weight...

Well done debc88!

I can see what you're saying CoughDrops, I just feel like a bit of a failure and I don't want to be even more disappointed in myself!

I feel I've had a crap week this week, we've been eating whatever has been left in the freezer because we've had no money for food shopping (hubby gets paid tomorrow) so it hasn't been particularly slimming world friendly. I'm seriously considering not going tomorrow morning :/

I'm probably not much help but I've been overweight for over 10 years now. I've attempted diets in the past but always gave up quickly and I have always been an emotional binge eater. Over the last year I have psychologically dealt with my issues and problems and made peace with myself...

Dried cranberries are 4 syns per 25g if that helps :)

3.5lbs off for me today which makes me 12st exactly. Am hoping next week I will be able to wave goodbye to the 12's... and hopefully forever lol

Well 3.5lbs off for me, which now gives me a 2st 1lb loss over all :) happy chappy indeed

Nervous this morning...

That's really good, well done. The thing for me is that tomorrows weigh in will be a testament to how well I got back on the wagon... lol

Lol can't decide if I'm looking forward to it or not

Good luck on your 2014 journey x

Weighed in this morning, 1lb on for me, but feeling good about getting back on plan this morning.

Well I weighed in this morning with 1lb on over the Christmas period. I can live with that

I gained half a pound last night but putting it down to weighing in in the evening as I am usually a Wednesday morning weigher

I am also a Monday weigher today and in the evening too. A bit worried that the weighing time is not going to be kind to me!

Hi, thought I'd join this thread. I lost 2lb yesterday at WI, to take me to 12st 2lb. I need 1lb to get my 2st award and 2.5lb at least to be under 12st which I haven't seen for about 11 years since being pregnant with my oldest daughter. I've been at SW for 11 weeks now and started at 14st 1lb...

I found too now that if I eat rubbish I end up looking bloated and like I've got a ball up my top!

Really want to try the tomato soup

Loving the cheese idea!

I've decided I'm making syn free coleslaw for food tasting in group tomorrow. I enjoyed it so much for dinner that I'll make it again in the morning :)

Thank you for that, very inspirational indeed! I plan to draw a line under my bad week and move forwards. I don't want to undo everything that I have achieved so far. Thanks for the kick up the bum :)

Dreading Wednesday! I've had an awful week and haven't kept myself in check at all or eaten regularly. I feel so bad about it, I would happily not go this week, but I know I must :/ And to top it off... just realised its food tasting and Christmas party on Wednesday at group :(

Thanks so much for that and I agree with missing "oven crap" and probably am getting a bit bored with food. Will continue to look for inspirational threads Thanks x

Hi, I've been on slimming world for 10th weeks now but this week following a weekend stay and a night out with my friends, I am seriously lacking in motivation and will power. I need to give myself a boot up the back side!

2lbs off this week, only 3lbs to go to my 2 stone award! Going to try my hardest this week

Our weigh in is the 22nd at 6.30pm, dreading. it as usually a morning weigher!

Oh wow, you are almost unrecognisable! You must feel. amazing now! Well done

Wow that's great! How did you achieve 4.5lb? I would love to know your secret!

Well I had a loss of 3lb this week and achieved my first slimmer of the week award and my 1 and a half stone award too , so well chuffed :) good luck to you all x

Hi! I beat myself up every week, whether I go off plan or have a treat within my syns! Usually I still lose. I had a terrible week last week and strangely lost half a pound, but (i am a Wednesday weigher) I am terrified it will all catch up with me tomorrow!

I started at 14st 1lb and have so far lost 1st 6lb. I've lost each week but strangely expect bad results each week and beat myself up emotionally over anything I ate bad in the week, and I can't get out of that habit!

Hi, I'm a newbie but have been at slimming world for about 8 weeks now. I'm a Wednesday morning weigher!

Hi I've just signed up to this wonderful site. I have been attending slimming world for about 8 weeks now and have so far lost 1st 6lbs.
