No gain though! That's where I'm heading this week so far. Had Indian to celebrate DD's exam results last night. Feel so rough this morning and just calculated my syn count for yesterday....80!

Some great results this week. I'm having a bit of a crisis day. Got over excited with my daughters GCSE results and picked up a pasty on the way back (well I AM in Cornwall and it is the first one i've had for about 8 weeks!) I feel REALLY guilty about it, especially as I have this party / BBQ...

Well I got 2 and a half off which I'm really pleased about as I also got slimmer of the week. Very happy bunny indeed. This week is going to be a tough one but hoping I can prepare for it. Just came home and put some curried chicken legs in the fridge to marinade over night and whipped up a...

Another short one here! I'm 5ft 1. In fact, I was same as your start weight at the beginning of the year. I lost 5lb on my own before going back to SW in May.

Thowing a big party for my daughters exam results which will involve vast amounts of food and alcohol.Enjoy your hols. I like that you will accept a gain on the scales and still feel confident because you know why. I didn't do that before, i put so much pressure on myself to lose EVERY week even...

Well done on the two losses so far! I'm going to the 5.30 WI so will let you all know about 8ish. I'm feeling good and planning for the next four days at the mo as I'm about to enter my shopping. Not had a good afternoon in work so if all goes well tonight I will enjoy a glass of wine!

Cheers, I'll be happy whatever she gets as she's worked really hard for it, but she is a bag of nerves. I'm really looking forward to Sunday and I've got it all planned out what I'm cooking. Usually, when i do this kind of thing, I end up forgetting to eat anyway! Going to have a bag of grapes...

Sorry to hear that hel. Some weeks are easier than others aren't they. Youve done really well so far though and remember why you're doing it. What kind of things do you enjoy?

Completely agree with you Tara. That attitude will make it easier to stay slim when we get to our goals.

Well done! What are you hoping for next week? My WI is tomorrow, need a good one as I have a mad one planned on Sunday.

First weigh in is always a bit daunting but I'm sure if you've stuck to plan you will do really well! Good luck. Not sure if I'm weighing at 5.30 or 7.30 tomorrow night, depends on what time hubby gets back from work. Hoping for an early one though. Been good all week and hoping to lose 2lb so...

Not really ha ha

I'm the same. An evening weigher and i fluctuate as much as 4lb from the morning to the evening. I just eat normally now though but leave dinner til I get back.

Just had Heuvos a la Flamenca which was from a SW mag a few years ago and its lively for a sunday brunch. Its ljke a spaniah corned beef hash but with a little chorizo in it and bakes eggs. Delicious.

Not syn free but I use the sainsburys be good to yourself sqeet balsamic dreasing which is only half a syn for a tablespoon which is plenty.

Ha ha, love it! I once gave blood just before a weigh in rather than after in the hope it would make a difference!

Hi all. I weigh in on wednesday and last week I was 12st4lb. Couple of milestones coming up as Im hoping to lose 2 this week to give me my club 10, then the other 2 also gives me my stone and half award. Been a good week so far after an iffy one last week where I was overjoyed at half a pound...

Hi jonny. Fi gers crossed for you. Ive only just found this forum but it is great. I agree with the post above that planning is the key and also planning for when you dont have time to plan eg having a few standbys in the cupboard or freezer for when things are hectic. Good luck.

As long as its the right things that you're eating then you will be fine. What are you enjoying so far? I also have three stone to lose but am setting myself little targets.

Sometimes if I REALLY want something then I will go to about 20 syns but the next day I would just have a max of 5. I wouldn't have one massive splurge day as that doesn't seem to work for me although it works for others. I would want to get another stone under my belt (or rather OFF my belt)...

I have tried these and love them. I miss butter so much and on a jacket potato or sprinkled on veg (especially corn on the cob) these fill a need for me. May try them in a mash.

Suprisingly the pitta is the worst part.

My SW chips just come out a bit too blonde so thought I would give this a go. The kids aren't great when shopping but to be honest my hubby has always been worse to go with. It's only this year where he is starting to be more conscious of what he is eating which is great as it helps me not...

A few have asked about this but no one has had an answer so far. wondering if someone may know now about foo yung?

I am concentrating on small goals this time round too as it seems less daunting. I have a few at the moment. First is to get Club Ten next wednesday (need a 2lb loss) then to get my 1.5 stone award the week after (another 2lb needed) and then to get my 2 stone award by my birthday which is 24th...

I have a deep fat fryer that is on its last legs so justified the investment that way. Not really sure how big it is but will squeeze it in somewhere. Aparr feom the odd thing I always shop online. It keeps me from temptation for a start and also with hubby being away at sea I dont fancy...

Hi, im in my 12th week I think. Well done on your loss so far.

I think this will be a great place for me to document my Slimming journey. What an amazing forum, so full of ideas and support! This is precisely the inspiration that I have been looking for when I'm not at group. Well, I have struggled with my weight since my early 20's when I had my eldest...

Congrats on your nomination. You must be really proud of yourself. I guess there are new challenges to face at target weight. I understand what you mean about boredom. We would grab crisps or choc bars. NOw the football season has started again I have to be careful as I tend to get a big bag of...

Its the first time I've used a forum so just getting my head around it all! We had a taster evening last Wednesday and I've had my shopping delivered today so I've knocked up a couple of things for the weekend. frozen mullerlight strawberry drops, a white chocolate mousse and I'm also doing a...

Thanks guys, love this forum! And you have such great little things on your signatures. I must work out how to jazz mine up a bit! Not new to SW, I was going to be a consultant a few years ago but with my hubby away at sea a lot, i couldn't arrange the training schedules! I love SW, but it's...

I've just checked in the latest book for you and it isn't listed as a HEB on green I'm afraid.

Hi, I'm new to the site and weigh in on a Wednesday so hope it's ok to hop onto this thread. This week I'm hoping for a 2lb loss which will give me my Club 10 award. My name is Terrie, I'm 38 and live in Cornwall.
