I lost 5.5lb tonight and reached my original target! 4st 1lb lighter in 24 weeks! So proud of myself... Still not completely happy with my body.. Need to do lots of toning! Might end lowing my target weight but we shall see! Well done everyone else :)

3lb for me today.. That's in 2 weeks as I didn't weigh in last week. Considering the two weeks I've had I am very happy.. Holiday for a week on Friday so gonna probably put loads on hahaha.. It's all worth it! Well done everyone :)

Not weighing in this week due to work... Let's hope for a big loss next week. Last WI next week before holiday!

3lb this week and nearly out of the 13's! Only 8lb away from my original target.. Can't quite believe it! Holiday at the end of June so we'll see what happens there.. Haha!! Well done everyone!

So I set a target of 3lb this week and I managed to pull off a 3.5lb loss! Crazy! So happy though.. 11lbs until 4st 0.5lb is gone forever and I reach my initial target! 2014 has been a good year... Well done everyone else :) x

Reach target by 9th July! 7 weeks to lose 14.5lb.. One week is a holiday week so let's hope that doesn't affect me too much haha!

So I lost 1lb! Very happy with that... Aiming high for 3lbs this week!

No idea what the scales are going to say tonight.. I've ate more than I normally do on weigh in day today.. My scales said 2lbs loss but think that's gonna be cut down! We'll see haha!

Thank you! x

1lb next week so I get my 3 stone award! Then 1 stone left to go! Woohoo!

Well done everyone! I lost 2lb this week :) Really happy as I'm still losing weight whilst toning up at the gym! I went for a Chinese buffet tonight though and I'm now stuffffed! 6 days to correct it lol!

Haven't seen an STS or gain as of yet.. Actually lost 5lb since I joined 2 weeks ago! Goingggg well it seems :) I drink lots of water whilst I'm there so don't think I am retaining water! But I definitely have gained muscle as I can see it.. Happy all around!

Well done everyone! 2lb this week - so happy! 17.5 until target.. That'll be 4st 0.5lb gone forever!

Official weigh in... 13 12.5! Good bye 14's forever!!

Next goal is to try and lose 5lb in next two weigh ins... Aiming high! This will give me 3st award in 17 weigh ins!

Unofficial weigh in this morning showed 13 13.5! So I'm hoping my official weigh in next Wednesday will show the 13's too! Yippee!

3lb down.. the walking in Barcelona must have helped! 19lb til SW target but thinking of lowering it already!

Not looking forward to weigh in tomorrow, been in Barcelona for the last four days! Tried to be good but had a few treats! Will keep you posted..

Completely see all of your points and they make sense! Nothing bad can come out of doing exercise.. You're right! It'll all fall into place sooner or later :)

Thank you for all your replies! I literally did no exercise before so my body is going to go into shock haha!

14st 3.5lb today... 4lbs until I get in the 13's!!!

1.5lb off this week and considering I've gained water wright during the week from exercise.. (I weigh myself at home sometimes).. I'm pretty happy with that! 22lbs to go! 1lb till 2.5 stone :D

Thank you :) I started swimming on Monday and was happy with what I could do (even though I had to stop a lot!!) but it'll only get better I suppose!

Hey everyone, Just a quick question.. How long do people normally STS or gain when they start exercise? I've got my weigh in tonight and I started exercising this week so I'm expecting a STS or a gain because of water retention... Does anyone have any experience of this? How long before the...

25 is the correct amount.. Since I started I tend to use about 15 a day but I do like a drink at the weekends so technically save the rest! It hasn't hurt me so far.. I've lost every week. You just have to find what works best for you, remember men are allowed more because we need more...

Soooo I joined the gym this weekend for the first time ever... I am so unfit so it is going to be hard I think! I can barely walk 10 minutes without my leg muscles aching... Has anyone else been really unfit before joining the gym? How did it go?!

2.5lb to my 2.5 stone award! So that's my next target... Joining the gym this week so expecting a few STS whilst my body gets used to the exercise! Soooooo aim is to get this by the start of may :D Gonna be taking measurements as well!! Wanna drop a few inches :)

2lb this week, really surprised but happy! Still maintaining an average of 2.5lb a week :D I'm joining the gym this week so expecting a STS for the next few weeks whilst my body gets used to exercise!! Well done everyone!!

There's not much different apart from the higher allowance on syns.. As above I tend to lose it quicker than others at group. My average is 2.5lbs a week. I'm currently just over half way through my quest to lose 4 stone and I joined in jan.. (See my stats) Good luck with your journey!

I'm really really happy! Just under another 2 to go now... Joining the gym this month as well so hopefully it continues to fall off! Well done to everyone else this week :) go Wednesday Weighers!

14 and a half stone as of today's weigh in... Bring on the 13's!!

Forgot to add, got my 2 stone award as well

Lost 3lb tonight! Super shocked! So happy though.. Over half way now! Eeeek..

I'm hoping this is going to be me! I'm joining the gym this month and am going to start swimming and cycling to be behind with.. Gonna struggle I reckon! Can't wait to build up my stamina though... Hope it doesn't stop the losses for too long whilst my body gains some muscle!!

Syn free mini quiches, fried vegetables and mushy peas! Yuuuummy!

I am yet to do any exercise apart from occasionally walk the dog of a evening. I'm joining the gym this month and will be cycling and swimming. Dreading it but looking forward to my body changing from exercise and I know that it will get easier with time :)

So close to my two stone award so I want that next week.. Then my next goal is to lose another stone, making it three, over the next 6 weeks.. That's an average of 2.3 pounds a week. I'm currently averaging 2.5 a week! So I'm hoping it continues :D

2.5lb down woohoo! 0.5lb away from two stone. Considering the weekend I had this is amazing!

I normally go out every weekend.. After all, I am only 20 so definitely not giving up my social life. I've managed to lose nearly 2 stone in 11 weeks. I tend to not syn as much during the week but always measure my 'pre drinks' before I go clubbing.. That's usually around 40 syns (eeeek). Then...

Feel like I'm having a bad week again this week in terms of weight loss.. Been on plan all week apart from Saturday when I went out and drank (had such a good night though...) - we will have to see what the scales say tomorrow! My scales aren't looking too good at the moment!

1lb for me this week. Lost 25lb now in 10 weigh ins.. 2.5lb average! So my chuffed.. got slimmer of the month for March too! :)

Don't think I'm gonna lose this week! I've eaten out 3 times (all on plan)! We will have to see what the scales say tomorrow.. Good luck everyone

Cheese (HexA) and Ham omelette with a side salad :D

Officially in the 14's!!! 13's here we come!!

Welcome and good luck :) It happens to everyone, I haven't had a gain yet so I'm kind of waiting for it whilst hoping it doesn't happen! Eeeek!!

I've eaten out at Nandos and pubs mainly and find it easy.. Most meals on the menus are all free and superfree foods! I always give around 5 syns for the oils it's all cooked in. Asking for tweaks to what's on the menu is key.. If it's served with chips.. Ask for a jacket or rice etc... I've...

Honk!

Welcome and goodluck! I'm same as above.. I have the books but generally look online at syn values etc.. Find it's easier!

Good luck!

Sometimes.. It may be a 'treat' but it's still on plan.. I might get a Chinese but make sure it's always within my syns and that I have my superfree! But still any takeaway is a treat :D

Well done! Recent pics are so good!

You've done so well! Inspiring :)

Amazing! Well done!

Lost 3.5lb this week! Meaning I got my Club 10 award & 1.5 stone! 4lb until 2 stone! (Half way!) - excited! :D

4 weeks later so I thought I would update! 1st - reached on 26th feb 2st - want to reach by mid April (7.5lb to go) 3st - want to reach by mid June (21.5lb to go) 4st - want to reach by beginning of August (35.5lb to go)! Lets do this! Determined now! :)

2lb for me this week :) Hopefully to get 3lb off this week so I get my club 10 and 1.5st award next week!! Fingers crossed!

Beef rice, chicken, mushrooms, onion and tomatoes! Was lush! :D

Nervous for tomorrow! I hope I've lost 2.5 so I get my 1.5 stone award! *fingers crossed* Good luck everyone!

You cant change the amounts but you could work the syns out and add them manually I believe!

I used to do a diary every day but I seem to know what I can and can't have now days and keep a mental track of syns!

Thank you! I'm really happy.. Can't wait to be at target! Bring it on haha!! Well done everyone else! :)

3lb this week :) so happy. I lost 10lb in Feb which meant I got slimmer of the month! (I don't stay to group so got my certificate this week!)

Garlic chicken (maggi sheet), Chinese batchelors rice, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes! Was lush!

I've now been on plan for 7 weeks and I've lost just over a stone.. (Next weigh in is Wednesday).. I can definitely tell the difference in my clothes and I feel a lot more comfortable already! I have about another 3 stone to lose so hopefully I'll keep seeing the changes. I've also taken...

Roast! Carrots, cabbage, brussels, beef and garlic frylight roasties!!! Was delicious!

Frylight BBQ SW chips with vegetables and pork all fried up! Was delicious!

2lbs this week! Lost 1stone 1.5lb now... Got my stone award! Yipppeeee

Homemade pizza! Asda wholemeal wrap (10 syns), tomato purée, cheese (hex), mushroom, onion and chicken! Definitely worth the 10 syns.. One of my favourite SW alternatives!

Thank you :D

Honk today!

3lb! :D :D 0.5 away from a stone!!!

I'm not too fussed about food during the day, it's more the drink.. As I drink a lot! Lol.. Sometimes I can weigh myself at home, drink a litre of water and it shows on the scales straight away! It's mental.. Haha.. I think I'm gonna drink minimal amounts of water to avoid that happening!! Lol...

Ah so it seems people do eat less / drink less on weigh in day... Water weight does count for a lot unfortunately!

This might sound stupid, but is it a bad idea to drink a lot of water on your weigh in day? Obviously water shows on the scales pretty quickly therefore could affect the number that shows on the scales. Do you treat your WI day as any other normal day? I drink about 2L of water a day at work...

Hahaaaa exactly! I'm happy :D Awww well done, that's good.. As long as you're happy thats all the matters!

Only 1lb this week, but it's still a loss and I lost 4lb last week so I can't complain at all! Heading in the right direction :D If I lose 10lb every four weeks (like my first 4 - I've lost 10.5lb now) then I will reach target in 5 months! I'm happy with that :D When do you weigh in? And...

Only 1lb this week but I lost 4 last week! Can't complain!

Thought id set myself some targets! Reach 1st stone - by end of Feb (5.5lb to go!) Reach 2nd stone - by end of April (19.5lb to go!) Reach 3rd stone - by mid June (33.5lb to go!) Reach 4th stone - by my birthday 8th August! (47.5lb to go!) Hopefully I will reach all of these... For my target...

Thanks! Will do, sounds good to me.. And I will let you know Karen :)... Fingers crossed!

Thanks guys!! Got my fourth weigh in tomorrow.. Rather nervous about this one. Don't think I'm gonna have lost as much as I would like! I lost 4lb last week so can't really complain!

Hahaha.. Well that makes more sense doesn't it? My bad!!

This is something I wasn't always sure of.. My consultant recommended 3 meals a day when I first join so have been doing that since I started but it did feel like I was eating for the sake of it sometimes!! I'm just going to take the approach you've said 'eat when your full' and that will help...

Hi guys I'm fairly new to the plan and I was just wondering really.. If you have a night out and wake up late the next day (I'm talking around midday) or even if you just have a lie in and wake up late... Do you still have all three meals?! I feel like fitting all three meals in what is a...

honk!

That's epic! Haha.. I'm on my fourth week (had 3 weigh ins so far) and I've lost 9.5lb... Here's hoping I can keep up at that pace! I have about 4 stone to lose.. Maybe more if I feel like it when I reach my initial target!!

You look amazing! Well done... Very inspiring for anyone... Have you done any exercise during your weight loss journey?

4lb this week! 9.5lb in 3 weeks... Let's hope it keeps coming off!

Sorry I couldn't see that on the app! Wow, that's amazing... Hopefully I will be following in your footsteps!

Did you exercise and how much did you have to lose? I'm hoping to reach target by August. I need to lose another 3.5 stone!

Everyone's done so well... I can't wait for the up and coming months when I can join you in saying I've lost many a stone! Thanks for sharing:)

Awww thanks for all your replies! Everyone's done so well... I'm looking forward to the coming months when I can join you in saying I've lost a few stones!!!

Thanks :D Wow, that's amazing! Well done... I'm hoping to reach my target by August!

Hi everyone, I'm new to Slimming World on my third week and have so far lost 5.5lbs without exercise! Just wanted a post on here to get some more motivation in my bid to lose a total of 4 stone! Sooo... tell me, how much have you lost and how long did it take you? Did you exercise? I look...
