I did it! Got down to my pre-Christmas weight this morning :woohoo:

To get rid of my Christmas/NY gain (6.5lbs!!) and then another 3 for my next award :D

Hey everyone :) I haven't posted in a few months.. but my weight's been going up and down like a yoyo in that time! I'm 7.5lbs above my lowest weight right now (6.5 of that was from the 2 weeks over Christmas and NY! :eek:), so need to seriously knuckle down. Would love 2015 to be my target year...

I'd love to join please! Thank you for the message :) BethanyChey - Week 1 = 3lbs loss Target for 3 months as from 1st October = 20.5 lbs (My P.A.T!) so 17.5 left to go.. :) Thank you!

I joined a gym about a month after I joined SW, and tbh my weight loss wasn't really affected that much. I think it also depends how much you do all at once. If you ease into it a bit at a time and then increase the amount/intensity, then your body is unlikely to hold onto as much fluid as it...

I've got 4lbs to lose to get my 4.5 stone, but I'm crashing a friend's uni freshers week next week so it could take me a while to get there! A (slightly) more realistic goal would be to try and maintain for when I get back.

Can I just say.. Your first 4 losses are outstanding! Congratulations :)

Only lost half a pound, but at least it's going in the right direction. *BethanyChey - 20lbs Lost, 1lbs to go *BlueCow - 7lb lost 28lb to go *BubblesAnseo - 19 pounds to go *Chrissygrech - 10.25 lbs lost 14.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 8lbs lost 13lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go...

Thank you, that's reassuring. I guess as long as I stick to plan it should even out!

Another 2.5 down :) *BethanyChey - 19.5lbs Lost, 1.5lbs to go *BlueCow - 7lb lost 28lb to go *BubblesAnseo - 19 pounds to go *Chrissygrech - 10.25 lbs lost 14.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 8lbs lost 13lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28 to go *happynanna - 6lbs lost 22...

Everyone's done so well this week! Haven't been on much this past week so doing some catching up, but I lost 2.5 yesterday and got Slimmer of the Month which was a surprise :) On a bit of a side note.. Has anyone struggled with keeping weight off which they lost quickly due to going off food...

I lost 3.5 this week. May need to up my goal soon! *BethanyChey - 17lbs Lost, 4lbs to go *BlueCow - 7lb lost 28lb to go *BubblesAnseo - 5lbs lost 21.5lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 9.25 lbs lost 15.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 8lbs lost 13lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28...

I wish I could say the same as you BrokenMirrors, but I'm in the same boat as MissAnonD by sabotaging this week for myself already! I had a group of friends over last night for one of their birthdays so decided to cook a free SW curry, which was fine. But then someone brought over bruschetta for...

Congratulations! Well done :)

Only a half off this week.. *BethanyChey - 13.5lbs Lost, 7.5lbs to go *BubblesAnseo - 5lbs lost 21.5lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 9.25 lbs lost 15.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 8lbs lost 13lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28 to go *happynanna - 5lbs lost 23 to go *holiday...

I lost a half, which is something I suppose :) Better than going the other way!

I will, thank you. Baking isn't exactly my forte, so need all the help I can get!!

Ooo, that doesn't sound too difficult! I'll have to try it. Thank you :)

Our consultant is away until next week so we're having our taster then instead of tonight. I go to group straight from work, so not sure what I can make the night before that will be okay sat out all day? That swiss roll looks lovely! What cake mix do you use if you don't mind me asking?

I'm a bit worried too.. Not that I've gone over my syns or done anything "wrong", but just feeling bloated and don't feel like ive lost anything.. Will find out tomorrow I guess!

Hopefully won't be long before everyone here is over in the 13 - 12 group!! :)

I got my 3.5 stone award, got down into the next stone bracket and have lost over 50lbs!! Next is to lose 4lbs for my 4 stone award :)

3.5 off :) *BethanyChey - 13lbs Lost, 8lbs to go *BubblesAnseo - 3.5lbs lost 22.5lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 4.25 lbs lost 20.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 8lbs lost 13lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28 to go *happynanna - 5lbs lost 23 to go *holiday dieter - 8lbs lost...

I'm going to have to leave this group now.. Lost 3.5, taking me down to 13st12.5. Felt soo good seeing that number on the scale!

I lost 3.5lbs!! Gave me my 3.5 stone award, I'm down in the next stone bracket and I'm in the Half Century Club! Overall was a good night :) Well done to everyone else on their losses too.

I went to Prezzo today and had the Salmon Nicoise, one of their new salads. It was lush! I had it without the dressing or the olives to avoid the syns. It does say on the menu that the salmon is oak roasted, so I'm guessing I might need to add a couple of syns in case it was cooked in oil, just...

I've just been looking through some of these pics and the transformations are amazing!! Thought I'd share my before and during pics :) This is me on NYE 2013, about a week before I joined SW.. And then this is one I took today, almost 3.5 stone lighter. (Sorry.. don't really know how...

Lost 5 this week!! :) *BethanyChey - 9.5lbs Lost, 11.5lbs to go *BubblesAnseo - 3.5lbs lost 22.5lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 4.25 lbs lost 20.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 8lbs lost 13lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28 to go *happynanna - 5lbs lost 23 to go *holiday...

I've just weighed in at 14st 2.0lbs.. Those 13's are within reach!! :D

I'm out of the 200's!! Next goal is for my 3.5 stone award. Only 0.5 lb, so should do it next week.. Probably jinxed it now though!

I lost 5!! Soo happy to have rid of that gain from last week :) Hopefully more of the same next week! Well done everyone :D

I joined one group which I only actually stayed at for a couple of months. Like WasMicci, she didn't contact me first week and kept forgetting to mention me in image therapy because she couldn't remember my name. I also tried to call her a couple of times for help and left messages but she...

I'm trying not to! I go to group, and have been given a diary for this week. I think I know what the problem was last week as I went camping for a long weekend so found it difficult to have a third superfree for meals. At least I know where I've been going wrong, but I'll post my diary on...

Sorry to be the first to ruin last nights losses.. But I gained 2 :( I seem to be going a bit up-down, up-down at the moment. Oh well, I'll keep plodding on!

I didn't lose the 1.5 I wanted.. In fact gained 2, so next goal is to lose that again!

I put on 2 last night.. :( But looks like the 1.5 I lost last week has been taken off for some reason? So mine should be right now :) *BethanyChey - 4.5lbs Lost, 16.5lbs to go *BubblesAnseo - 3.5lbs lost 22.5lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 2.5 lbs lost 20.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 3lbs lost 18lbs...

Ooh that sounds nice. I ended up using it to make a half syn cake which didn't turn out too badly actually. But I think the sweet option was the way to go :) Does the white choc options taste better in it than vanilla essence and sweetner?

Yay! Well done :D

I'm the same Willbeslimjen. This is probably my 4th or 5th time rejoining after losing a couple of stone a fair few years ago, so will only be my second "proper" attempt. Granted I have a lot more to lose now, but like you I'm determined it's going to be for the last time! I think it's all about...

Your friends and family who are telling you how proud they are of you are the people you need to be listening to. They're the ones who you are going to be around for the most part, so try not to pay attention to anyone else who is trying to put you down for your amazing achievement so far. On a...

I didn't have a pudding when I had a meal out last night. Even though the strawberry shortcake sundae sounded sooo good!!

I didn't manage the 3lbs off I wanted this week, but I did lose half of it. Hoping to try for the other half next week :)

Another 1.5 off for me tonight :) *BethanyChey - 6.5lbs Lost, 14.5lbs to go *BubblesAnseo - 0lbs lost 26lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 2.5 lbs lost 20.5 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 3lbs lost 18lbs to go *Donna79 - 1lb lost 20lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28 to go *holiday dieter - 6lbs lost 22bs to go...

Happy Birthday, and what a present!! That's an amazing loss, well done :) I lost 1.5, not as much as I was hoping for but at least it's still going down!

I did it!! Managed to get rid of my holiday gain this week, so my next goal is to get under the 200's, which is only 3lbs away!

Good for you for going in to weigh regardless of what might show on the scales. I hope it's not as bad as you think it's going to be, but if it is a gain at least you know where it has come from and can turn it around :)

I was in your position last week, but lost my gain this week purely by getting straight back to plan. Try not to let it affect you, as you were on holiday after all. As long as you enjoyed it! See what happens on weigh-in next week, I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised :)

I've just weighed in at 14st 6.5lbs, so more than half way to the 13s! Can't wait to get there :D

I lost 5 this week!!! So that's gotten rid of my holiday gain and some more. Thank god! Back on track now :)

I lost 5 this week!!! Really pleased :D *BethanyChey - 5lbs Lost, 16lbs to go *BubblesAnseo - 0lbs lost 26lbs to go *Chrissygrech - 0 lbs lost 21 lbs to go *DollyRocker - 3lbs lost 18lbs to go *Donna79 - 0.5lbs lost 20.5lbs to go *edaj1 - 0lbs lost 28 to go *holiday dieter - 5lbs lost 23lbs to...

I bought a couple of tubs today because a member of my group raves about it being a sub for ice cream with some sweetener and vanilla mixed in, so thought I'd give it a go. Result: Not nice! Was nowhere near being like Ben and Jerrys.. Haha. I did regret buying another tub of it, but I must...

That's amazing!! Well done :D 5 lbs in 2 weeks is definitely possible.. Go for it!

Soo.. My goal to not gain while on holiday didn't happen (was +3.5), so my next goal is to try and get that back off again next week! Hopefully I can actually do this one :)

This is such a good thread! I sooo wanted some cheesy chips after gaining last night, but decided against it after staying to group. Really glad I didn't have any now :)

Oh wow, that's amazing! Well done!! :D I did similar to fit into my prom dress when I lost weight through SW before. I think buying smaller sizes and feeling great in them is even more important than what the scales say anyway.. Have a great time! Beth :)

Can I join please? Weighed in yesterday with a gain after a holiday, so my July starts today! Hope to lose 1st7lbs by October. Thank you, Beth :) *Chrissygrech 0 lbs lost 21 lbs to go *BethanyChey - 0lbs Lost, 21lbs to go *BubblesAnseo 0lbs lost 26lbs to go *Donna79 0.5lbs lost 20.5lbs to go...

Well I did the opposite of you Tanyalina and put on 3.5!! Not good, but I have just got back from holiday so it could have been worse I suppose.. Never mind, back to it today. Beth :)

Some of these flavours sound lush! I've been having natural green tea, but must admit it wasn't love at first taste! Maybe it will be for different kinds. Thank you for this! Beth :)

I'd like to get through my holiday next week without gaining.. Might be a bit of a far fetched goal :( But I'll try! Beth :)

I lost 3 tonight!! After sts for 2 weeks running it was a relief.. And I got my 3 stone award! Glad everyone else is pleased with their results so far. Beth :)

I lost 3 tonight! At last :D Thank you Beth :)

I sts again! This 6lb target isn't looking too good :s. Thank you. Beth :)

STS this week.. Thank you. Beth :)

Can I join please?? I have a birthday and weeks holiday in June so need the extra motivation! I'd love to have a 6lb loss by the end of the month. Might be wishful thinking, but I'll try my best! Thank you. Beth :)

Hello! I weighed in yesterday at 14.11, so would like to join this thread please, if that's okay? Haven't had a 14 in front of my weight for a couple of years at least so I'm chuffed :D I hope to not stay here for too long before moving down though! Beth :)

All the losses are amazing! I'm 3 pounds down and into the next stone bracket :) Really pleased as it's my birthday on Monday, so will probably have a gain next week. Glad to have had a good loss before that! Well done everyone :D Beth :)

I used to big time.. Especially as I weigh in the evening. I never used to eat much during the day atall, then have a binge after group on anything I wanted. In my head it didn't count as I would start a fresh the next day. But I don't think it was doing me any good at all, so I try and spread...

I had my first gain tonight.. :( Only half a pound, but it's amazing how disappointing it feels! Not even sure what I did wrong. But I'm armed with food diaries for this week to try and find out! Beth :)

I lost 3 this week!! Over the moon, really don't know how I've managed it but it's the most I've lost in a while. Dead chuffed :D I hope everyone else is pleased with their losses too! Beth :)

I think it's all about being in the right frame of mind. I've joined and rejoined SW a number of times in the past 8 years, but since the weight crept back on after the first time around (aged 15) the most I've lost is 1 stone before throwing it in. This time I feel like I'm consciously making...

Hello! Do you mind if I join?? I've just received my 2 stone award! But I'm going away tomorrow for 2 days which is likely going to include (a lot of) alcohol.. Just going to try my best and cut back on syns for the rest of the week I think! Beth :)
