Are you eating your weeklies or activity points?

The only reason I say it doesn't look much is that on ww we are told to eat our full allowance for it to work properly, but if your calorie counting then yeh it's different. There have been weeks when I have ate less than my allowance and I haven't lost, but when I eat full allowance I lose. I...

I agree that there doesn't seen to be much there, you will probably find when you start properly that you can eat a lot more on ww that what you've planned for this week. Meetings are a good way to start off, as there's always someone there to help and it's a good motivator. Then once your in...

Yay welcome back. You'll need to start a food diary

Just checking to see if this is you gem

And I plan on getting up early to go for my first ever run tomorrow morning, watch this space!!!

Day one back on track, No breakfast Lunch was Mediterranean salad with medium chicken and a portion of halloumi cheese (nandos) I still have points left over tonight for dinner, however I'm still quite full from lunch

So got weighed tonight, after three weeks of fannying about off plan, I have put on 2lbs. I'm fine with that tho, it could have been a lot worse! I'm all set to be back on track tomorrow

Thanks! Have been good today, don't get weighed until Thursday so will be back to points as of Friday, haven't counted today, have tried to eat better/less Breakfast was porridge, then ham sandwich for lunch, and dinner was salmon salad and Cous Cous . snacks today were fruit and a ww choc bar

Back with my tail between my legs, after a very naughty few weeks! Am all set to start afresh tomorrow, went way off plan for a while

I'm ok, have been off plan tho. Ready to get back on track tomorrow x

Lovely to see you back Serena xx

Gained half a lb this week ? it could have been worse tho as I was terrible at the weekend. Girls night again this weekend so will have to keep my sensible head on and track track track!!

What's a g&b bar?

Hey everyone, hope your all well! Yesterday I ate 33/37 dailies, then was right in the mood to munch, so fearing that I'd cave and go off track again, I took the dogs out for a walk with my cousin. We were out for over 2 hours and walked 7.3 miles! By the time we got home I was too...

Serena I'm sure I talk for everyone when I say we don't subscribe because your an advert for ww, we subscribe because you are you!! Have you tried maybe just eating healthier instead of the structure of a plan? Like more protein less carbs kind of thing? That does seem to work for some people...

So Friday night was fine, used all of my 37 dailies and 0 weeklies. Went to see a spiritualist with my cousin and friends, she was ok bit I've been to better. Yesterday went to my pals for a BBQ, it was bucketing down with rain so we cooked outside and sat inside lol. Food wise at BBQ I was...

I'm good thanks, weekend has been fab so far but I've been quite naughty xx

Hey hun I know how you feel as I was in your shoes last week and had been 100% on plan, and like you said to me, it's not a gain. But it's still rubbish, I was gutted. it'll balance out tho, and you'll have a fab loss next week xx

Hey guys I've not forgotten minis, have had a busy weekend so shall update tonight xx

I was well chuffed when she said it! I'm looking at the Barry m damson, which is this: I usually wear Marc Jacobs daisy or Lola but I'm looking for something different. My fave is Chanel chance but I keep that for nice nights out as it's bloody expensive ha ha!

It's dragging in lol! I'm on my 2nd coffee to keep me going. I'm counting down the hours until 11. Tomorrow I'm going shopping for new perfume and possibly a nail polish (I'm addicted to Barry m gelly nail polish) then I am going to see a spiritualist with three of my friends,. Saturday my...

Awwww they are lovely x

Oh, and yeh I walk them all at once, have a lead which has three seperate attachments coming off it so they can all be walked together x

Ha ha lol I'm the same, can't quite happily chat dogs forever! Rico is a black lab, he will be 7 years old in august. He is really tall for a lab, and is so laid back and placid. He's happy to just cozy in and nap all the time. Max is a springer spaniel and will be 6 in August, he is bonkers...

Of course, welcome to my diary! Nutella in porridge is really nice, I love it! I am chuffed with my loss this week, it's the biggest one I've had in a few weeks now, but I did diserve it, I was really good. Yeh, three dogs are definitely hard work! Totally worth it tho, I love dogs, would...

Hey, I'm on ww and started at 19 stone 5 lbs, I agree that small goals are the best, it's easy to off track when you feel like you've a long way to go. Since end of feb I've lost 25lbs, could probably have lost more but I have taken weeks off for going on holiday and for when I had exams so I've...

We got married on September 25th a few years ago! Fab date to choose lol x

I do miss him but I'm use to it really, he was in the forces for the first few years of our relationship and now works offshore so we've always had time apart, it's the norm for us. It's lovely when he's home but I do like getting time to myself too, it's just weird not talking to him everyday lol

Thanks! Yeh I'm feeling much better today. Loads to catch up on with my friend, she's recently started dating a lad she met online so I'll get the goss about that. Hubby's away for another two weeks (4 weeks in total)

Sorry I didn't update last night, I went to bed early with a headache. Today's bf is oat so simple golden syrup porridge 5pp Banana 0pp Lunch Sainsburys roast chicken crispbake 9pp Cous Cous 5pp Salad 0pp Tea Ham 1pp Salad 0pp Cous Cous 5pp I'm working again tonight, from 3pm. Really can't...

Lol that'd be fab!!

I'd been told before it's usually 10pbs -14lbs but doesn't seem to be the case with me.

I don't really notice a difference yet lol. My uniform feels slightly looser, and a cpl of tops but not massively. I've not dropped a dress size yet so hopefully when I hit the two stone mark

I started end of feb, but I've not lost every week, I've taken weeks off for holidays etc as I didn't wanna deny myself, still went to class to be weighed just didn't follow points, so a few weeks I've gained or sts, but the vast majority of weeks have been losses, like 16 outta 20 weeks kind of...

Thanks I am, that's 25lbs in total xx

Mmmmmmmmm haggis, my favourite!

3.5lbs off, chuffed!

Looks lovely! Hope you have a good day and that the weathers nice for you! Xx

Yay good luck!

I ignored simple start and went straight on to pro points so I can't give advice on your menu, but just wanted to say good luck!! Xx

Lol hurry hurry, I'd be dying of suspense. I'm already like a cat on hot coals and I've ages to wait

Oh god I'd have to do it first thing! I wouldn't be able to wait

Good luck!! What time do you weigh?

Oh and the lunch cube, that one is very good too. Those three are used most in my house

Do the heart shape plates fit in a dishwasher? Not that I'm needing more plates, house is full of them, but I could always smash a few to make room for more lol! I have the sistema quad, and yeh it's worth it, I use mines a lot. That and the thin sandwich one are my favourites x

Thanks! Class is at half 5 tonight, my fingers are sore from being crossed so tight lol

I really hope so, I was pretty gutted last week. Although I'm always saying to other people it's better than a gain, and I know it is but I was miffed. These past two weeks have been the first two weeks since I started where I've had no alcohol and no takeaways. I ate out once in the last two...

Ha ha no the salad was real, I was just too eager to take a photo! Yeh I will defo try the other icelands to see if I save some money. Thanks, I'm nervous as I sts last week even tho I was 100%, and I really wanna lose this week. My next target is 28lbs by 14th July so I have 6.5lbs to go

Today's food- Bf: oat so simple original (made with water) 5pp Nutella 2pp L: Chicken, broccoli & carrot crispbake 9pp (First time I'd tried it and it was really good) Uncle bens savoury chicken rice 10pp Salad 0pp I did have salad with it but had taken photo before putting salad on plate...

So, just told my pals how unimpressed I was with Iceland and they informed me that I went to the worst one in town, apparently there is another 2 which I didn't even know existed, that are much better! Ha ha

Two days before my first weigh in, I weighed on my scales at home and had put on 2lbs, but at two days later at my official weigh in, I had lost 6lbs. For me it was different scales, different clothes, different time of day, and I hadn't given it a full week. Good luck

Well I went shopping this morning, popped to Iceland and left having bought absolutely nOthing!! I just really didn't like it. It was so dark and dreary inside, smelled a bit funny and there didn't seem to be much choice, or nothing that was appealing to me anyway. I must have a bad one beside...

If you have the range, they will probably have them

I lost 6lbs in my first week

They are aren't they. I had the garlic one today, and it was really filling, I'm still full lol

Me too!!

They sure do! Well, apart from the flake lol

I'm at work that's the problem, If I was at home id be able to have something else. I've just ate my curly wurly, so 7 left to use. I might work out how much is in Cadburys hot chocolate as there's one of that at work lol

I know, I usually eat them all every single day but I'm not remotely hungry so it's not appealing to me at all. I don't know what to do, I don't want to jeopardise a good loss as I stayed the same last week even tho I had been 100% on track so I was a wee bit gutted. But then I don't wanna force...

I actually don't think I'm gonna end up eating all that food, I'm still stuffed from lunch. Not had my tea yet, and from snacks I've only had the fruit pastilles, which means I will be 10pp under. Does anyone else ever not eat all of their pp?

I've never used activity points either, actually I've never even worked out how much I've earned, I just try to think of exercise as an extra of you know what I mean, otherwise I'd only exercise to eat lol! But my friend always uses hers and gets steady losses x

I've forgotten to photograph what I've eaten so far today!! Bf: Oat so simple big bowl golden syrup porridge 5pp Banana 0pp Lunch: Birds eye garlic chicken inspiration thingy 8pp Tilda rice 10pp Salad 0pp Tea: Salad 0pp Crumbed ham 1pp Ainsley harriott spice sensation Cous Cous 5pp Snacks...

Well done 10lbs in 3 weeks is fantastic!

I tried that this morning but as it doesn't deliver to my area it's not letting me do a mock shop

I still have two big bin bags full of teddies up in the loft and I'm 31 ha ha

I think I'm gonna give Iceland a go tomorrow, will buy the same as what I put into my virtual baskets this morning, and see how Iceland prices compare. If not much difference I'll revert back to sainsburys for my nectar points ?

Shez, what does your avatar say? I tried to click on it but it won't let me see it bigger

And also there's nectar points with sainsburys too, asda should start something like that. We basically got our big Christmas shop last year with our nectar points, think we added about £5 cash to it lol

See I've just sat and done two shops online this morning but didn't submit them, just to compare prices. I put the exact same things in each "basket" and the sainsburys shop came up at £7.85 cheaper than the asda shop. It's weird eh how some people find one shop cheaper and others don't

Do you find morrisons quite reasonable Serena? I went a cpl of weeks ago for the first time and thought it was quite expensive compared to my usual sainsburys. I'm considering trying Iceland and aldi this week to see if I save anyoney

lol it can be quite chaotic yes! They're good boys though.

Good luck for the scan!

He's a bit of a mix really. At the park he will run about mad like a dog possessed, and will happily keep going for hours, putting the "spring" into springer spaniel. However in the house he is happy to curl up in his bed and snooze. He's got a fab character, very obedient but with a mischievous...

Thanks, gorgeous but pests!

This Is them all together

It's one of them yes, I've got 3 dogs. This one is the springer spaniel max x

It's lovely!

Lol I'm feeling a bit like that too, their a bit too plain for me, this is only the 2nd pack too ? back on to quavers at my next shop!!

Thanks! So for lunch today, as I'm working tonight I had my main meal at lunch time. Steak mince, gravy, roasted carrots and butternut squash total 14pp For dinner tonight I am having Ham, Cous Cous and salad for total 7pp Then finally, my snacks are Curly wurly 3pp Fruit...

The meringue thingy looks awesome!

Sarah, what app do you use to track exercise?

Yeh it's soooo nice! Think it's the "sides" or "extras" bit, and only £2 I think for two decent sized bits, you should try it next time

Thanks! I dunno how many meal ideas you'll get as I'm not too adventurous lol! My husbands the good cook in this house, but he's offshore just now so I'm left to cook for myself ? at the moment I'm trying to eat through the stuff in the freezer so I can get it defrosted so am having some random...

Ha I dreaded trying it coz the thought of cheese squeaking put me off, but it's lush. I first tried it in nandos and now I love it x

Play suits lovely! I could t do strapless, I'd need scaffolding to hold my chest up lol! Apparently there are new strapless bras out for the more endowed girl, so I might give one of those a go. No doubt cost a bloody fortune tho

Serena, m&s do lovely halloumi and veg skewers which are really nice on a BBQ, and filling with some salad and a jacket potato. I'm a meat water but I occasionally buy these for a change and they're fab

Thanks! I've got lots to lose, "on paper" I'm still 7 stone overweight, but I don't know how realistic that is so at the moment I don't have an end goal in mind, I'm just using smaller goals, then when I get to a weight I'm happy at that's when I'll try to maintain. My first goal was 5% which...

Hi everyone, I've been lurking here for a while, and thought it was time to start a food diary as I get inspiration from reading others Anyway, I'm Linz, have done ww myself from home off and on for a cpl of years, losing then gaining. This time I joined a local meeting in February and...

Hi everyone, As of today I am starting calorie counting. I have about 7-9 stone to lose so I know it's gonna take a while. I have been doing ww on and off for years, did well on it but then put all the weight back on. I restarted this year and did do well when I stuck to it, but found that...

Can I join in please? Aiming for 8lbs, today is my first day of cal counting so not sure how I'll get on and don't wanna heap the pressure on. Fingers crossed x

I do aswell, nearly everyday lol. Usually it's a loss but not so far this week. Fingers crossed tho!

I've been really good, however the scales show a gain :( I know I shouldn't weigh until my official day but it's hard not to. I'm going away for the weekend so had hoped to have lost another 1lb or so but unfortunately not. Hopefully it'll have sorted itself out by Monday when I do my proper...

Perfect thank you! It wasn't as much as a tin but I'll point it as that anyway just in case

Does anyone have an idea how many po there would be roughly in a take away polystyrene cup of lentil soup? It's not made with cream. I forgot to bring the lovely lunch I had made to work so had to buy from the roll shop, gutted!

Hey, I'm a restarter. Have done ww before but then put the weight back on by being naughty so I'm back on it again as of last week. I'm in week two at the min

The app I use does it for me so I can't help sorry, but sure someone will be along with the info. If not, if you have an iPhone or smart phone the ultimate value diary app is fab

Value diary is fantastic!

Well done x

Thank you! I think that's the first time I've ever motivated anyone lol. Well done you. I have to push myself to exercise too, totally drag myself to gym but once it's done feel sooooo good for having done it x

Thanks guys! (.........off to buy an airfryer.......)

Omg Wendy, you have done brilliantly and have totally inspired me! I also started last week at 19st 3.5lbs, exact same weight as you!! I take my hat off to you (if I wore one lol)

Good luck tomorrow lyndz, keep us updated x

Thank you xx

Week 1, and I've lost 6lbs! So chuffed I started back

Fab start for me, 6lbs off in week 1, woohoo!x

6lbs off for me, yay! Bonkers - 0 lbs lost, 10lbs to go Linz259 - 6lbs lost, 4lbs to go

Thanks! So do you think the Philips one is just as good? We also looked at that one too x

We keep looking at actifry then don't buy it for fear of it being another appliance that gathers dust lol. Do u use it a lot? For what other than chips?

Ahh I totally hadn't thought about it including the chicken, I thought it meant spice alone! Makes much more sense now, thanks!! I had then decided to have the chicken plain but now I will have the maggi stuff, thank you, you've saved my tea!

Has anyone tried the maggi so juicy packets? I have one where you put a chicken breast into a paper bag and cook in a pan, quite confused about working out the points tho. I've had a look online and see people saying their about 6-8pp but for basically just spices/seasoning, is that not a bit high?

I'm having friends round tonight and were having a Mexican dinner, one friend provides starter, one the main then me the dessert. One friends not keen on desserts so we agreed on a cocktail instead and I chose mojito as that is my favourite. The ingredients are: White rum Fresh lime Fresh mint...

Hopefully we will all do well this year, I've done really good so far this week xx

Sounds like you have it figured out debs, good luck! Positive thinking, "I can and I will"xx

3lbs is fab! I've out on 3stone in a year

First day went great thanks! I had 40 out of my 41pp, and did an hour in the gym. Doing good so far today but it is still morning lol, I am determined tho. I'm currently sitting watching biggest loser as they inspire me. Working tonight for Hogmanay, and just had a text from my boss saying to...

I'm the same, I need to know how many pp I'm allowed or have left, otherwise I'd go way off track x

I've been food so far today, and have been to the gym. Shattered now tho lol!

Mines are: 1. To lose weight and get healthy and active 2. To stop doubting myself and believe that I can achieve what I want to (like my exams for nursing) 3. Stop using Facebook so much!

Have woken up raring to get started today, with a trip to the gym!

I'm starting ww tomorrow, hoping to lose 10lbs in jan x

Thanks guys, I'm really looking forward to getting started tomorrow x

Thank you x

I'm starting Monday 30th, have a good few stone to lose but will take it a stone at a time!

Hi everyone, I'm starting weight watchers on Monday 30th and reckon I will weigh around 19 stone. I have lost a few stone with we before but put it back on from eating rubbish and stopping exercise. So ww and gym from Monday, I'm working over new year so no point putting it off, I need to stop...

I'm the same, I'm flit between ww, calorie counting and just healthy eating, but ww has given me best results so time to stick to that. I'm restarting Monday 30th dec and cannot wait. Good luck xx

I am starting Monday 30th December
