Hi all, would like to join the Thursday weigh in please, was weighing in on a Monday but think it suits me better late week as I do enjoy my weekends and its all balanced out by Thursday :)

Five weeks in now, 9lbs down and all done without going to a class. Very happy with my progress. Respect for this site soo much and all the lovely people on here that have helped answer my questions and queries and assisted me on my journey so far. Good luck to everyone else in their weightloss...

Am thinking of doing scan bran challenge - wondered whether doing them similar to magic porridge and leaving overnight with yogurt n fruit would make them more palatable lol! Anyone ever tried this? Sent from my HTC One X using MiniMins.com mobile app

Hi can anyone tell me if Asda Vitality bars can be used as a Health Extra b - the apple and raspberry ones are 73 calories. Or will I have to syn them so then on the 1 syn per 20 cals ruling they would be approximately 3.5??

Lost another 1lb this week, all great and going in the right direction - half way through my target now :)

Hope to be in the 10's next week, good luck to everyone else!!

Lost 2lb this week for my first at home weigh in, a little disappointed as usually the first week back its usually abut 4-5 but maybe star week played a little part in that!!! But I guess some off is better than none, so will be vigilant again this week and hopefully have a good loss next week. :)

Emma_88 - Most def not sad - a few years ago before my youngest started school I used to go to classes on a Thursday and Friday and used to sooo look forward to them. I had originally started with a few friends but they all chickened out and in the end it was only me that went but enjoyed it a...

subcribing, would be interesting to see what peoples take and/or advice is regarding this :)

I Love Zumba, shame there's not a class at a suitable time for me atm tho :( Checked all our local gym etc just a few weeks back and it always on at either inconvenient times or days when I need someone to look after my boys.

Roads scare me too, I ride on the pavement but it is quite quiet when i set out as the two local schools have just gone in, also halfway through my journey I cycle through a park and then use a shortcut that has no traffic, its just the dog walkers that have to beware lol! I did the 30 day...

Any good bargains in Lidl this week as am off there later??

Morning everybody - so what exercises do people do and when and where. Atm I cycle to work 3-4 times a week, roughly a 20-25 minute journey each way and have a vibration plate at home which I use first thing in the morning when I get up and immediately on arrival at home from work when my...

Have had a really good scout through your recipt list this morning Pete (easier on the PC) and CANNOT wait to try a lot of these out. Definitely wont be stuck for ideas with this list of inspiration - thank you so much for your time and effort in compiling!!

Am off to Tenerife for 12 days just after the kids break up for the summer hols. Can't wait, used to work there years ago so it's like going home :D x. Sent from my HTC One X using MiniMins.com mobile app

Will have a mooch round Asda later after I drop my son off to see if they have any new bargains to what they had Monday lol!

Have just checked the calendar and I have 16 weeks (July) until my jollies - most definitely an incentive to stick to plan. I guess even a 1lb loss every week would be good but am gonna be ambitious and go for more :) Where is everyone going on their holidays this year and when?

Thank you :)

So another seemingly good day so far, had muller light and fruit sprinkled with alpen lite bar for brekki, pineapple and passionfruit about 12 ish to keep me going until lunch when I had the other half of my SW quiche I made which has onions, peppers and mushrooms in alongside a big mixed leave...

When I have done SW previously I have always gone to a class but this time I am going am attempting to do it from home. This site seems amazing for hints, tips and advice so hopefully when the results start to show I'll have my weekly fee to put towards some new clothes :) Thanks to everyone...

Hi I am in the 11's, dont like it and am desperate to get back into the 10's and even a little under that with lots of perserverance and effort. Good luck to everyone :) xx

Yes, when I'm at home having a few drinks, I like to add diet pink lemonade or some of the tropical flavoured sparkling waters to my vodka as it does indeed feel like your drinking some exotic kinda cocktail and then when I'm out I alternate between diet coke, soda or diet lemonade (when...

Dinner was nice too, chicken leg roasted (synned) syn free roasties, mixed veg n cabbage with gravy. Was stuffed after and didn't have room for my planned orange choc Muller light, maybe later if I get the munchies Sent from my Nexus 7 using MiniMins.com mobile app

These sound amazing, will be adding to my little book of recipes I have been compliling since navigating around this sight. thank you!!!!

Loving that Asda is doing 10 Muller lights for £3.00 atm - absolute godsend!!!!!:D :)

I only really have a drink on a Friday or a Saturday night so maybe as I'd not always had fully 10-15 syns every day is where my saving grace was. Will keep an eye on it this time round!!!! :) x

That is brilliant and so very helpful, thank you very much :) xx

Lunch was lush and didnt need bovril as it was filling enough on its own ........... forgot how nice it was to each so much food and know that its free or very low syn :)

Yes, love those too, they taste as if you are indulging in something naughty lol! :D

Thank you Lisa :)

I bought some of these yesterday, gorgeous!!!! :)

Oooh can you tell me where you got BBQ Frylite from please, sounds good x

thats sounds lush, will give that a go as I have some at home!!! :D

Thank you :D xx

Thanks for all your replies :) xx

Oh thanks for your quick reply - am guessing this is to speed up things or help shift the last few awkward lbs? x

I too am loving the new raspberry and chocolate muller light - can anyone confirm whether they are completely free or they have a syn value please?? x

All your suggestions sound great, will be taking note - thanks :) x

Can somebody please tell what Success Express is on Slimming World please, havent come across this before ???

Skimming through posts, I am pleased that everyone still seems to enjoy vodka and wine, I know you are meant to count them as syns but on previous S/W journeys I have neglected to always add mine and did always still seem to lose - so fingers crossed this will occur again lol! :rolleyes:

Well day 2 has started well so far - had a gorgeous breakfast of raspberries, strawberries, muller light yogurt with chocolate and one lemon alpen light bar sprinkled over the top, very filling but am now feeling a little peckish so am going to tuck into some pineapple, melon and mango fingers...

Oooh I will have a look for this, apps are always handy as so accessible :)

Ooooh dear there is the odd fast food binge but they all sound gross!!!

Hi there, Missperfecttoes - I think that when losing weight it is because we are so regimented and mind set and then when we hit target or near enough everything maintains for a while so we think we can get away with eating whatever we like .................... unfortunately that is when the...

Hi have joined the slimming world plan again as did it very successfully a few years back but my old habits have crept back and I'm not liking how I feel or look atm :( I know I can do it but feels a tad daunting on the first day but fingers crossed, perseverance and determination will get me...

Just been reading different recipes for magic pancakes, sweet and savoury - cant wait to try those out - specially the savoury ones. Have never seen those before when I followed the plan.

have enjoyed first day back on plan. Having lots of thoughts and making lots of notes for future meals :) [URL="http://lilyslim.com"]

You look fab, well done :)

You look amazing, very inspirational as I restart SW ....... again!!

Mmmmh, just tried this yogurt for the first time ................. very scrummy. Am thinking chicken with some added chilli would be nice marinated in this, grilled and then served with rice and salad for a nice zesty dish!!!

Shopping Nearly finished work, off to buy Alpen Lites, Muller lights and loadsa berries. Forgot how yummy the food choices are ............. feeling excited and inspired after reading through lots of threads here today. Gonna get back to being slinky for my b'day in June and my hols in July...

So first day, had a good look through the magazine and have checked syn values/info on this very helpful site. Extraw Easy Breakfast : 2 x scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and 4 x large strawberries Mid Morning : 1 shape yogurt, melon, mango and pineapple fingers. Lunch : mixed salad...
