Just take it one day at a time. Try to fill up on speed food and bulk out meals with them, maybe try cutting back on carbs? How many syns do you use? Sometimes it is best to use all your syns or atleast 5 everyday

I don't really do SP either, I didn't see a difference when I did 3 days of SP. I just try to stick to Speed fruit and veg only and have a few days of no carbs, don't bother with 2 HEb's as I think that's why I don't lose as much

Thank you! This is very useful :)

My consultant always says never regret what you eat. If we have a gain she always asks if we enjoyed it :) I enjoyed my binging last week!

I have found it on the primula website now

I hate when people use their weight as an excuse. At my heaviest I was 19st and I am only 5ft2. I have never stopped working tho and always had jobs where I wasn't sat at a desk all day! If you are overweight it is your job to do something about it. Why should other people pay for you to carry...

Mine for today, not all SW related but 1. Felt I looked good in a t-shirt I usually feel fat in 2. Ate lots of speed foods! 3. Got another egg from our new chickens!

I am a 20 in new look but a 22 in asda! Annoying!

This made me smile!

I am slowly introducing exercise, started with walks with my dogs. I did 3 extra walks in one week and lost 3lb. usually I lose 1/1.5lb so it helped me. Didn't want to jump into it tho as I don't want it to plateau

I want to get my 2 and 1/2 award and get into the next stone bracket this month

I lost 2lb in my first week, was really disappointed, didn't make it to my 2nd week because I was stuck at my mums when it snowed and put on 1.5lb in my 3rd week. My 4th week though I lost 5.5lb was much happier!

I am at uni so I attend 2 groups. My uni group is lovely, but its big, which means we don't get as much time to chat about things as some other groups, usually theres about 40 people that stay for group, sometimes more. It also means getting slimmer of the week/month is pretty tough! However...

I have 6 and a 1/2 stone to lose to get to my interim target, think my final target will be 8 and a 1/2 stone but mainly I want to be happy with my shape not my weight so only time will tell. Taking this journey one day at a time

I didn't weigh in this week (planned holiday for exams) and decided the best thing to do was just carry on as normal as when I restrict my syns I end up binging. So far so good I think. Only time will tell! weigh day on Thursday, would be happy with a maintain! Well done on your loss this week...

well done, you are looking fab x

I cant see the pics but well done on a fab loss x

you look fab, well done x

wow well done, you look fab xx

Well done! I love reading everyone's stories. I started with slimming world and I am slowly increasing my exercise, I am itching to get to the gym at the minute but thinking a slow introduction will be best :)

I had done SW before, only lost a stone before I gave up. I started again in January and have lost 2st so far. I know what you mean about getting used to the changes. I think I have the hang of it now, just had to look at it differently, like its a brand new diet. Good luck ladies!

I weighed myself the other day, it was driving me mad because I wasn't going to group this week anyway so I had to know the damage I had done. I had put on 2.5lb according to the scales at boots so hopefully by Thursday I will have lost it all! :) best thing to do is take this journey 1 day at a...

Thank you! Sorry it took so long to reply! :) x

I bulk up my meals with speed food and try my best to snack on speed foods as well. My new favourite snack is gherkin wrapped in a slice of ham. I also snack on cooked chicken pieces. I try to snack on speed as much as possible but if its not speed then its meat. x

So going to make this today! Anyone got the recipe as I am at my mum and don't have my magazine with me!

If you stick to sp I imagine you would lose 6lb before your holiday. I have heard a few people say though that when they have gone from full sp to ee they put weight on the first week

I went a few weeks ago and got the grilled chicken pitta without the pitta and swapped the fries for a jacket potato. Things like the new york chicken and new jersey chicken, if you get the sauce on the side, no onion rings, dont eat the bacon and count the cheese as a healthy extra. Get it with...

I had a massive night off on Thursday and I am now struggling to get back to it but I know I need to. I have been 100% on plan since Saturday but I feel like I have put on loads of weight. Just take it a day at a time, draw a line under the off plan day and carry on as normal x

Part of my inspiration is to be able to shop in any shop! I hate having to shop in plus size stores only. I also want to feel as good looking as my boyfriend says I am, I think at the minute I cant understand why he likes me because I don't like me. Another reason is I have PCOS and my doctors...

Sometimes it takes a week to catch up. I have really good weeks but only lose 0.5 but then the week after I will have a really good loss even though I wasn't as good. As someone else said as well make sure you get your 1/3 speed foods. I find I have really good losses when I have loads of speed...

Hi Laura!

So I am gluten free, partly by choice. My mum has coeliac and I have symptoms of it but blood tests have said I don't have it, the only way to know for sure is with a biopsy that I am not willing to have! Anyway I made the decision in December to go gluten free. I then rejoined slimming world in...

I use gluten free porridge oats a lot to make porridge, cookies or baked oats as my HEb. I also use gluten free bread. One of my favourite HEb options though is cashew nuts. Lovely to eat whilst watching TV! I tend not to eat the gluten free cereal as I wasn't really losing weight when I ate...

My consultant reminds us every week that we have 105 syns a week! If we want to have them all in one day then that's our choice. If its working for you go for it! If I have something that I know will take me over my daily syns then I try to save up syns to use or cut down syns after and it has...

You cant have yoghurts on an SP day because the syn value includes the yoghurt as a free food but on SP days its not. I love quark with options sachets mixed in or to make it syn free mix it with cake flavouring (eg lemon, vanilla etc) You can also make your own humus and cut up veg for a free...

I know its a bit late but when I eat out I go for chicken New Yorker but with the sauce on the side, swap chips for jacket potato or salad and no onion rings. I count the cheese as my HEa if you don't want to count is as a HE ask for it without. You could also opt for a jacket potato or a salad...

I only got slimmer of the week once and it was when I went to a group I don't usually go to so you should still be able to get slimmer of the week. I like the idea of slimmer of the week but sometimes its really disheartening to get a big loss but not get slimmer of the week because someone else...

Im in the 16's! only 4.5lbs til I hit the 15's! Maybe more though now as I had about 200 syns this weekend! Anyone else ever gone way over their syns and not sure if you should limit syns until weigh day or just stick to your normal syns and see what happens?

I take fruit as snacks, I usually get fruit pots from supermarkets so I don't have to prepare it myself. Or I use my syns and get popcorn but limit how much I have. You could also take your own low syn snacks like baked oats, slimming world sweets etc. It depends what you want but theres plenty...

Hi I have been back on SW for about 16 weeks and one of my favourite things about it is I can google any recipe and just tweak it to be syn free or SW friendly :) If you get bored of SW recipes just try that! My favourite recipes tho have to be Fanta chicken, diet coke chicken and Fanta lemon...

For the first couple of weeks I felt ill, I am usually tired anyway so cant really comment on tiredness but my stomach was definitely not right, I think it was just my body getting used to healthy foods! I am now 16 weeks in and feel so much better, rarely get stomach problems (I used to get...

I got so excited then :)

I cant eat gluten and I don't really like the gluten free alternatives so I don't always eat my HEB but try to have my A choice, although I do go without sometimes, it has never really made a difference to my weight loss. I usually tend to eat them if I have used all my syns and am still hungry...

I know you already ate out but anyone else that wants to know good things to have I went for JD chicken, with the sauce on the side, with the veg and instead of mash I got the spicy rice. Was lovely and worth the syns. I got it with a diet coke and didn't have any other syns but I would say it...

I know it's after your meal out but I went to TGI Fridays last night and got the JD chicken, with the sauce on the side that my boyfriend dipped into, veg and cajun spiced-rice. Then the bottomless drink of diet coke. I'm saying 10 syns for oil. I didn't have any other syns yesterday so I think...

I love slimming world quiche! I have to take lunch to college and I have no way of heating anything up, I don't like using my healthy extra on a sandwich so I take the slimming world quiche, pasta, salad (I have a current obsession with red peppers) or sometimes I take cooked meats with things...

I like to vary my meals but breakfast I tend to have a certain pattern, Monday-Wednesday I grab a banana and possibly a yoghurt as I rush out of the door to college. Thursday and Friday is usually an alpen light bar as I tend to have a lie in and breakfast is very quickly followed by lunch...
