Well the other day when id no running buddy I ran 3.2km beside my daughter on her bicycle it took 18.50min, proud of the first attempt back at running. It certainly paid off down to 9.11 and a quarter!! ?

Great Anya.. I've done a 6km walk every evening so far but tonight will be the tale.., no walking buddy this evening ?. Plan is to run a bit when my daughter is on her bike. I can see that the bloating in my tummy has already gone down a bit since Monday! Let me know if you did your walk. ?

Hi, been a while!! Back up to 10 St 2.5 lbs ?. I'm trying to get back to at least 9st 7lbs by the end of June. Going to weigh in on Friday mornings. My aim is to walk briskly at least 3 times a week & 10 min of kettlebells 3 times a week. Cycling/ running is a bonus...if I get any done ?.

Big weigh in tomorrow. Was very bold for the past few weeks but was very good this week, hoping for a miracle would like to have a loss. I started kettlebells 2 weeks ago & I think they are helping shape wise so I hope it shows on the scales .

I don't know how but I'd over 2.5 lb off!!!& I had a nightmare of a week. Happy mammy this morning... My middle child is 2 today so I might take a tiny tiny bit of cake... Yummy

Dear god!! I don't know what's come over me the past 2 days!! Been very good all day and even cut out tea & coffee.... Then both evenings I've launched into the sweet cupboard like someone possessed!! I was being exceptionally good this week cos we have a wedding this weekend but the way I've...

Woohoo 1.25 lbs off this morning... Not sure how to enter the .25 on here so I'll leave it at a clean 1 lb. my wish to be at 10 stone for next Friday is obviously not gonna happen lol. Anyway at least the scales are heading in the right direction. B

That's great Lizzymag,...going the right way for ya B

Hi polly, welcome me to the 10's. Loads of support here. SW is much better than counting calories. My goal for the 9's is hopefully before the end if September. B

Well done Chug!! your doing great, & with the books there'll be no stopping you. B

Morning all, 1.5 lb off this morning Whoohoo! More than delighted as it was a nutty week, we went to an adventure park on Monday with the kids..didn't do too bad but had some crap & didn't do any exercise that evening. Yesterday was spent in the children's hospital & although I'd shepards pie...

well done!! That's fantastic!

Hi loopylaura11, That happened me a few weeks ago & I changed to the red/original plan & within the week is lost 2 lb. this week will tell the tale if it continues to come off. If I'm the same or have put on weight this week I'm going to do mainly original days & maybe throw in 1 or 2 green...

Hi chug, your flying at it now! Great stuff. Maybe check the cherry muller light. I remember hearing that the cherry mullers might carry some syns. Although your well below 15 syns on all your meal plans! today was grand for me, stuck to my plan & walked about 8km. Your ur getting loads of...

Hi Chug, nothing like a jacket potato & tuna.... You could have 42g of low low cheese melted on it as one of your healthy extra a's & a lovely big salad with it. I know your fussy but it's important to eat enough too. - unfortunately some days I take that bit of advise too seriously lol. Id a...

Hi Chug, yes thats the red & green day healthy extras. I haven't tried the EE plan yet.... For my healthy extra b's I take Aldi benefit chocolate & fudge bars. That way I get my chocolate fix & my healthy extra lol. Hope it's going well for you. B

Hi chug, good stuff planning 3 days ahead! Off the top of my head that looks fine. I would say that when your doing an original or green day then you can take 1 or 2 healthy extra a's and 2 healthy extra b's. B

Hi guys, after 3 hectic days in Galway last weekend, not really sticking to sw! I have stayed the same.... Well when I popped on the scales I was 10.8 & three quarters. I pottered about with the kids for a while & then got back on the scales to recheck & I was back to 10.8 & a half....so I am...

Well done! Your flying it, in 3 weeks you've 5.5Lb off.

Hi blondcat, i dont really know much about calorie counting but I did a detox ages ago with limited calorie intake. I did loose weight but was advised to not continue for more than a week. If you are exercising 600 calories & only taking in 1000 calories your body could have went into starvation...

Just back from 2 nights in Galway.... Fab time but dreading Friday weigh in. I stuck to red days for Saturday but I'm sure I went over 15 syns with the alcohol. Teehee then midway through Sunday I blundered & today was a total write off ending up with a Mc Donald's on the way home! I tried to...

my syns were quite lowest week so I hope to have another 2 lb loss this week if I up the syns. I'd only 3 syns yesterday so really really enjoyed 2 treat size crunchies with a mug of coffee last night

Another red day & I seem to only be using 3 or 4 syns a day so I might up them to about 10 & enjoy a curly wurly a few days next week.

Hi guys, can an I join you please? Just restarted sw after our 3rd child & am struggling to loose, seem to be hovering at the same weight for a few weeks now. Did red days this week & I lost 2lb. Yea!!

Sounds lovely, will have yo try this out next week

Well happy days... 2lb off...Whoohoo I was 10st 10.5lb last Friday, then after a night of wine & Chinese I was 10 st 13lb on Saturday but I'm takings lot loss from the Friday weight. 2lb a week would be great! red days are obviously the way to go for me. I'll try another week of reds to see...

Anybody find that with exercise their losses increase or sts. I'd been doing a lot of exercise & green days & I was floating between 10st 10 lb and 11 st for almost a month. Hope the red days this week will have made a change. Exercise this week was 5km run on treadmill 4km walk 8.5km bike...

Good luck with your WI.. well done on getting rid of 3Lb already ! B

Nothing like a curly Wurly for 6 syns... gorg with a mug of coffee and it lasts for ages. B

Weigh in tomorrow and I feel really bloated today... I'll be soooo disappointed if I dont have a significant loss! Still sticking to the reds this week. Downloaded Squddies Excel document and it made me realise what I have to do to get where I want to be... Definitely worth a look . B

Hi I started cycling 3 times a week about 2 months ago, as yet I haven't seen results. I live in hope as all the cyclists I know are really toned and it's not that they are dieting and doing excessive exercise. so it must be good! Apparently cycling works on thighs, calves, glutes, tummy and...

Hi Lizzymag, not a silly thread at all & chances are I'll be posting something similar tomorrow. A 2 lb loss is fab! Sometimes it takes a few weeks for your body to adjust to slimming world. Also a lot of people seem to find that using between 10 & 15 syns helps increase weightloss. I've...

Hi Squiddie, This is fantastic, opens my eyes at what I need to achieve each week! Thanks B

Hi guys, I'm joining you all if that's ok.. 10st 10 lb and desperate to get sub 10 before the 23rd august. I've a weekend break this weekend but after that I'll be sticking to SW big time. I've been constantly exercising and sticking to green days for the past month and the scales are not...

Hi Mary, im im trying to get to 9 stone and beyond lol.... I Changed from green days to red days this week as the past few weeks I've be hovering between 10st 10lb and 11st. I first did sw after my first baby in 2008 and did mostly red days & I lost the weight quite quickly. 2nd baby it took a...

Oh thanks!! where do you get the perfect shake fajita seasoning? I tried the Aldi one the other weeks and it is lovlely!! B

Was thinking of having fajitas. I was going to syn the seasoning from the Aldi fiesta dinner pack at about 5 syns for the entire sachet. I don't really like the wraps so I was wondering does anyone know of a low syn way of bulking out the dinner?

Hi, Hope you don't mind me posting here. Our third baby is 3 months old now and I am really struggling this time to loose the weight. I was doing green days for the past few weeks but almost nothing is coming off. So from today I'm going to do a few weeks of red days to see if it helps. We...
