You know, whatever people say, a change, even a positive one, can be scary. We all get in a comfort bubble. It may not be what we want but it's what we know. Take me starting a job 5 weeks ago. Yes it's positive, yes it's what I have been aiming towards, but having not worked for 11 years (due...

Lol this thread has cheered me up, thank you! It's good to know I'm not the only one who does things like this and feels like a total muppet afterwards :D. and now I want to try one of these rice cakes cos they sound yum. Thank goodness there isn't an Aldi near me (yet!). at least you didn't go...

I found the SW sausage to be better if cooked with things like onion and roasted veg. Cooked on their own they were quite dry and very hard. I get the feeling they would work well in a casserole too. But for me, I'd rather use a syn or so and have Tesco's healthy living sausages. They are...

Oh yes, that's so true. Lake dairy is much much nicer than any other. Having tried both sainsburys and tescos own, I will never buy any other but lake now. Still can eat it off a spoon mind you........:p

Michrm thanks for the reply. I def need carbs in my life too lol. I think I'll try 2 or three sp days this week and see how I go. Part of the reason for me doing sp is that Tuesday night I Went off plan. Pizza, Urgh. Of all things to choose I went for the worst :mad::sigh:. So, this is damage...

Hi all, I know it's feb but can I please join? Id really love to loose a total of 100lb from when I joined last week. Reaching a century loss would be incredible :-) well done on all your weight losses so far :) start weight 23st 5. Current weight 22st 12.5, loss so far 6.5lb thank you xx

I'm doing a few sp days this week with my first ever sp day yesterday. I LOVE carbs and am def a pasta addict lol. However I found I really enjoyed the day off from carbs and loved the 2nd HEb choice. what took me by surprise was how much I missed the non speed fruits and yogurts. It made me...

Last night I made quark into a mushroom & pepper sauce to go on top of my SW burgers and it was lovely. Quark can be had freely on SP which is the plan I was doing yesterday. But you do have to be so careful not to overheat or place in very hot liquid or it does curdle. Using quark that's been...

Hi, i lost 6.5lb this week yay! Feeling a bit rough as have a cold. Had a bad night off plan yesterday but didn't enjoy it at all. Decided today to have an SP day today and tomorrow to hopefully make up for my naughty night. Kicking myself over it but also really pleased I am back on plan 100 %...

Hi watwobble. I am not on your meds but on other meds that slow metabolism, make you feel hungry. I have just returned to SW After being unwell but can honestly say SW is the best plan I have followed and I loose weight when I stick to plan. I have lost 8lb in one week before! As for eating...

Thank you so much. Susie, A buddy sounds brill if u are still up for that. Loosing weight is sooo tough at times it would be lovely to have someone to chat to and also return the support to, too. Weigh in tonight (I type this at 2am. My sleep is rubbish as I keep waking through the night to...

Thanks guys, Your weight lossses are inspiring and help me get back on track. SW consultant was lovely, she's only been doing the job 7 weeks but I thing it helps in a way as she is super enthused about it all. I just hope she wants to stick around! I have put on quite a bit of what I lost but...

Hi all, I'm Back again (again! Grrrrrr). Had 6 weeks of being unwell over Christmas (1st with the flu then nasty case of pneumonia). Once that was out of the way I Started my new job 26th jan so been all nerves about that as mental health issues and having a little one means it's my 1st paid job...

thank you for this. I was a bit worried as it turned into such an essay lol but I hope it helps some people. i have just been over to the EESP sticky thread and was tempted to post similar there. Lots of debate about the plan, lots of worry and confusion too. it's great to have a place to...

I totally agree that SW look into these plans very thoroughly. The plans they devise work as they test them beforehand. For many months. With dieticians/ advisers. And they wouldn't want to loose the support of the RCM (royal collage of midwives) for eg, which they would if they didn't ensure...

Just imho but i think it just means that they'll only be one syn value for all foods across all plans. And less plans too. Can't see them getting rid of syns all together but simplifying what they have makes sense to me. It was getting too cluttered xx

Yep! That def makes no sense! I wonder if fruit will only be limited in the new success express? Hope it's only there. And so far I only hear about bananas being limited which is fine, but even to limit bananas and keep mugshots etc free doesn't make sense. If you are going to limit bananas you...

Not sure it'll be totally free of processed nasty stuff, they are bringing out a range of ready meals after all. I don't mind that they are. I love cooking from scratch but find sometimes, like now when full of sinus infection and looking after my very stroppy tantrum throwing toddler, a ready...

Ooo this does sound exciting! I like EE but missed having 2 HEB and it took a bit of adjusting to after using red and green before. Looking forward to trying out This new plan and seeing if my weight loss gets boosted x

Ok will wait till jan. Thought more info had been revealed due to the 'big news announcements' made by SW consultants this week. Those were the words of my consultant anyway?! New packs are being handed out on the week of the 29th dec I'm now told so not too long to wait xx

Can I ask what changes are being made? I havnt been able to make it to group last week or today when the 'big reveal' was as I am getting over a bad case of Flu? Am a bit nervous of any changes, even though I know SW research plans thoroughly. Thanks xx

Hi all, So sorry for the lack of posts. had dad a very unwell household recently and I have been struggling with anxiety over job hunting. Last 2 weeks we have all had colds and my poor daughter is just getting over her 2nd bout of sickness and dihorrea in just ten days. I am just getting over...

Thank you for your kind words and advice. It's really appreciated and helped my put things in perspective. Back on plan today- i am hoping to just put tomorrow behind me and learn better ways of dealing with stress that do not involve eating rubbish! And accept lapses happen. Am only human...

Hi guys, sorry for for the lack of posts here. Been a bit pushed for time And only just managing to keep up to date with the food diary. last week went well. Had a small slip up- panicked about it but manage to pull it back and get back on track before damage was bad and still lost 3.5lb last...

thanks everyone :-) yes the ravioli is tinned. There are a few available- the savers ravioli is free, and the Morrisons own 'regular' ravioli in tomato sauce is 1syn per can. The ravioli in bolognase sauce is 4.5syns per can though so be careful, unlike me who wasn't careful and brought that...

Week 3 and I lost 3.5lb :-) total 12.5lb yay xx

Oh hun, I have never known a dentist to have a weight limit for a chair. Certainly not one that has paid any attention to any weight limit anyway. It's quite possible I was too heavy officially for our dentist chair last month but they didn't say. Poor you. Hate it when things like this happen...

Thank you! Yay yes just one night :-) we are so lucky that we have had the same builder for all of the refurb. He knows how stressful it was for us to be out of our house for 6 weeks when the heating, electrics and wall demolition was going on. We had no end of problems found when we started...

Today's food so far (bearing in mind it's weigh day so not the usual amount to eat.) breakfast 2 boiled eggs & HEB wholemeal toast for dippy soldies, melon. late lunch sweet potato tortilla, fat free cottage cheese, 2 heck sausages 1 syn & grapes dinner will probably be Morrisons ravioli and...

Thank you :). If I work out my syns being 105 weekly I think I am only 5 or so over so that's great. Need to focus on how I pulled it back rather than how I went down that emotional over eating road in the first place. Going to slip up and need to deal with these better. My own worst enemy as...

Thanks zafira, Your right,honestly I think I just panicked. Had a crap day so went and ate chocolate and then thought omg here we go again! However I DID make myself assess the damage by working out the syns. When I was eating the choc I thought it was a lot worse than it actually was. Lesson...

Oops! All change. Really not hungry as that stew I had at 4 was realky filling even though it was only a small bowl so didn't have dinner- just straight to the supper. Food now now looks like this: Food today- breakfast- banana and muller light. Apple. lunch, tomato salad. Sweet potato...

Just popping in to say hi, well done on your weight loss so far, and I hope you feel better soon. Lots of nasty bugs about as the weather changes. My little one is giving a run of them at the mo. Xx

Good luck for weigh in tomorrow, your room looks gorgeous and I hope sofa delivery goes well- exciting :-) xx

Another pretty good day. Been shopping to top up on eggs-.forgot just how many I get through on slimming world! also ordered final cupboard for our kitchen, and a vinyl floor for out bathroom. Productive day, especially with cooking another tortilla and a bacon & sweet potato stew :-) going to...

Feeling better today after I stayed on plan yesterday and managed to do a bit of cooking too :-) yesterdays food diary: breakfast- muller & banana lunch- new potatoes, lamb curry with peas and carrots, a plum for afters dinner- sweet potato tortilla off the SW website. This was sooooooo yummy...

I should of kept those crisps to stop a craving today:-( bad day emotionally and I went over my syns in chocolate :-( 21syns in chocolate. I managed to stop it there by forcing myself to stop and count the syns so far but I am realky REALLY fed up. I know 21 syns isn't tons but it's more about...

Scratch that- just tried the tesco lentil crisps which I was saving before I went to bed. They are chicken, lemongrass and coconut flavour. I like all those flavours- however these were really not good at all :Nono: yuk! Not getting anything else, so syn total is now 12.5- better! I think on...

Hehe need a new recipe club :-) thankfully the the bathroom has been put off til next week. Monday they start. My WI is Monday so my excuse to sort out my own dinner as its really late in the evening is sorted. I don't think my poor MIL could cope with me cooking for everyone. She'd be fussing...

Looks great. Would highly recommend having your syns too- I have done SW before and noticed people loose less if they don't have their syns. Honestly! If you want to, take a peek at my food diary and you'll see I stuff my face lol. Totally understand the worry though. 1st time I did SW I...

Right, don't think she's settled now but we'll see. She's def feeling better the madam lol. food diary for today: breakfast: muller light, banana, grapes. lunch - small portion of bean and beef hotpot from SW website 1/2 syn. Baby corn & broccoli dinner- half a pack of tesco lemon & coriander...

Thank you :-) bit of a spanner in the works as we are getting our bathroom fitted so will be moving out for 1-2 nights. an old leak has caused floorboards around the toilet to rot. So when the old toilet comes out the fixing of the floor is going to take a bit of time so no toilet for a bit...

2nd week and I lost 3.5lb- very chuffed! Also slimmer of the week and 1/2 stone shiney. Love me a shiney sticker :D good luck for next week everyone xx

am going to look for this also, thanks! Thank you all for your tips and help. 2nd weigh in today and I lost 3.5 total 9lb and slimmer of the week :-) got to keep it going but thrilled so far xx

Hi, lost 3.5lb :) soooo pleased. Got slimmer of the week and reached my 1st goal of the first half stone. I I was so nervous, but all the hard work in quite a difficult week has paid off and I'm thrilled. Need to keep the motivation going so I have brought a new SW cook book and the mag and...

Lost 3.5lb :woohoo: slimmer of the week and got my half stone :D soooo pleased especially considering the week I have had with little one. Set another 4lb target for next week. I might not make it like I didn't this week but having that target definatly helped spur me on and keep me on plan...

Thank you, she's def better today, but doesn't realise she needs to ease herself into being a manic toddler again lol. Lots of running about followed by laying down looking sleepy as she's overdone it! We are getting there though :-) Weigh in tonight. Been on plan all week which I'm pleased...

Thanks, I'll let you know. Sooooo nervous! X

Right let's catch up- todays food..... breakfast- grapes & mandarin muller light lunch- heck sausages 2 syns. Eggs, lean bacon, mushrooms, tomatoes, spaghetti hoops, dinner- smoked haddock kedgeree - green beans and sugar snap peas instead of peas to get more super free, rice, haddock, eggs...

Thank you. pleased to say am still on plan yesterday and today and as no new pox spots have turned up today I think we are on the home straight :bliss: yesterdays food diary was: breakfast - muller light & banana, milk in tea 1syn lunch- cous cous 1/2 syn (tesco medatiranian flavour), 1/2 pack...

Having said what I said I quite like the idea of being given a choice between 15 per day or 10 per day, using the remaining 35 weekly. Least then if you know you have a busy weekend or a work lunch you have a bit of extra without totally depriving yourself the rest of the week. Having a limited...

SW used to give you your syns on a weekly basis but changed to to stop the binge/ starve cycle that could happen. However it depends on you really. I personally couldn't save up all my syns and use them over a few days like some can, plus I need the daily treats to keep going. If I saved up the...

Sorry I missed a day - little one has been poorly and very clingy with it. Hoping she will start to get better from now on. dispite all that's going on I have stayed on plan 100 %. I have been tempted to reach for the choc but have stayed in my syns and cooking SW food has actually been quite...

Def go, but don't worry about wether you take food or not. Everyone will understand. Absolutely go though. It's a great chance to get to see and try all the yummy food you can have and get chatting to others about it. Another thing you can do which I have seen done is take some low syn snacks in...

Thanks, she's not been good today - she just v angry & upset & fed up and at 22 months getting frustrated she can't always tell me what she needs :(. Just been to settle her back down hence 3am typing. keeping fingers crossed she's better later today. I have had chicken pox but we are not sure...

Hi, quick post as having a bad day- been on plan still tho which is amazing for me :-) little one has been unwell since Saturday but she now has chicken pox :(, confirmed today when I panicked about a 2nd rash that suddenly appeared all over her back. Turned out to be hives linked to the pox...

Thank you all for the support, and thank you to Tracy for sharing about you own health changes. I need to hear that. I know it in my head that loosing weight will help but hearing about the positive changes from a person who has been there. Quick post as am not having a good day. Daughter...

Hi zafira, Yes unfortunatly I think it's only tescos- at least for the moment. They are very nice and are on offer at the mo. Still not cheap mind u at £3 a pack. The other Heck sausages are quite high in syns but these ones are listed on the website as 1/2 a syn each. However if you put the...

Hi, thanks for the pm inviting me to the challenge :) i'd like to join in, and my target for the 3 months is 28lb please. week 1 I lost 5.5lb :D weigh in is Monday, goid luck reaching your targets everyone xx

Stuffed now after eating 2 SW burgers, small wholemeal roll, salad & sautéed potatos. Was very nice. Little worried that I need to do more about portion control, but why I like SW is that portion control isn't meant to matter- as long as you fill yourself up to satisfy your appetite. i think I...

Right- food diary so far- will add to this later editing this post. early breakfast (thank you little one for a 6am wake up!) melon & banana later brunch at 10.30ish- 1/4 of a breakfast frittata made using SW RECIPE from website. Heck chicken sausages, bacon, potato, onion, button mushrooms...

thanks, was hugely relieved that I liked what I have cooked, it horrid when you go to lots of effort and it turns out wrong. Either me not doing a good job of cooking it (more often than not lol) or sometimes the recipe being a bit strange! For the most part I love SW recipes but just...

Frittatas freeze pretty well. And you can take jacket potatoes into work if u have microwaves? M&S has Some tinned meals like count on us red Thai chicken curry and beef chipotle chili that make good potato toppers. They are 2 and 2.5syns each Hth, and hope things calm down for u in November :-) x

Quite a good day food wise and am stuffed from dinner still :-) think that means the incredible hunger I felt is wearing off now thank goodness. todays food: breakfast- strawberries & melon lunch- chicken & noodle oriental salad SW recipe found on a blog site. So yummy. Basically chicken...

I'd also agree about the garlic press- but I hate peeling garlic cloves! Best thing I got is a garlic press By 'pampered chef' which you can use without peeling the garlic clove 1st and it realky works. pampered chef is one of those organised party companies and you buy from a local rep at one...

Thank you all, am really pleased, but I have just posted in WEMITTS about that voice that tells me this drive I have wont last or how 5.5lb is nothing when you look at how much I have to loose. I really want to take a baseball bat to that voice! I want to be realky positive then I get those...

Thanks :-) I do agree my daughter is gorgeous lol, not that I'm bias or anything ;) also so totally agree we all need to be kinder to ourselves. It's the usual common problem of how its MUCH easier for me to say to someone else that they mustn't beat themselves up, but not be able to follow my...

Thank you :-) The boost it has given me is brill and I am really Motivated to cook today. am making an oriental chicken noodle salad which I found online on a blog, and beef & bean hot pot from SW website. The hotpot is freelance so I can start to build up stock of home made 'ready meals' :)...

Hi, thanks for all the good luck wishes guys :-) well i lost 5.5lb :-) very pleased! And relieved and determined for next week. Set myself a target of 4lb for next week. Going to give it my all. If I don't get the 4lb I won't be too disappointed. I just thought aiming high may spur me on to...

Thanks snow, decided not to eat after lunch but regret it now! Think next week I'll still have lunch but later and a bigger breakfast, try that. anyway lost 5.5lb this week. Really pleased! Set target of 4 next week. Really going to go for it :) shiney sticker next week hopefully - gotta live...

Hi, thanks for the get well messages for little one :-) she's not too bad today thanks, quite bright this morning considering- thank you calpol lol. She was coughing til 11 then again at 3 but once she's back in a deep sleep it's settled down. Hoping it gets better from now on. Audrey, thanks...

Thank you all for such a warm welcome it means a lot. 1st weigh in tomorrow eek! Have definitely enjoyed the food I have eaten and being in control of that food :). It has been hard getting used to cooking again. Don't get me wrong- I enjoy cooking, but with little one around and currently...

Thanks ladies, snow- good luck for Tuesday weigh in. Sounds like you are doing really good :) Wee audrey- I know exactly what you mean with feeling jealousy towards those that loose appetite! Wouldn't wish stress on anyone but when I need to loose weight and am stressed anyway, putting on more...

Hey TraceyG, thank you you for the recommendation & kind words :) I think this is def the place for me! Everyone seems very friendly already, and it's good to get support off of others in the same boat with a lot of weight to loose too. its also brill to see successes like your weight loss...

Oh blergh, after a rough night last night and no sleep I didn't make it to Essex. Been under a lot of stress lately with moving, then house refurb throwing up nasty surprises that ended up costing far too much and also family issues, I think it all caught up with me. So, hubby took little one to...

Thank you for your kind words Jamsie and Dragonfly, :) i do feel a bit better now I am on plan. I guess I struggle with looking too much in to the past generally but your right though, it's what I'm doing now that matters so I will try and focus on my positive start getting back on plan. Hope...

Hi all, after i I posted in strugglers and restarters the following post I was recommended to this forum, so after weeks of hovering, and 1st week on SW, I have popped in to say hi. The post gives an idea of where my head was at a few weeks back and why I want to shift this weight for good this...

Sitting here stuffing my face on SW friendly food, thinking to myself that there are not many eating plans which wouldn't frown on a) what I'm eating and b) the time I am eating it :). i know eating late isn't for everyone but personally I havnt had problem with doing so on SW. It's a very...

Oo that's good to know SallyV thanks. Tend to agree with you about using them as a HE. I assumed that the recipe had changed, but as it hasn't and I lost weight having them as a HE last time I'll continue using them for now. I noticed that there were quite a few less crackerbreads on the list...

Hehe, always room for another kitchen gadget :-) I have just had a new kitchen after we refurbed a very dated 1950's house which we moved to in June. One of the most important things was storage- for all my kitchen gadgets lol! that new frylight with garlic and chilli sounds yummy, will have...

Good luck! I rejoined Monday after a year away & so pleased I did. Feel better already just from eating healthily! go for it x

That's amazing well done! What an inspiration :happy036:

Today's food diary: breakfast- berry fruit salad (strawberries, rasberries, blackberries & blueberries) and a banana muller light. lunch- mild lamb curry (lamb korma out of SW mag) with rice, grapes and necterine for afters. My little one who isn't even two yet loves this curry! Love that she...

Thanks snow & zafira. The Herby cous cous is in SW Mag- the one before the current one. Pretty Easy to make, it's cous cous made up using hot veg stock, spring onions, tinned green lentils, mix of fresh herbs or dried mixed herbs added to the stock and couscous if you don't have fresh (I don't...

Thanks Audrey :-) great to have another slimming world member go over the food diary and let me know what they think. I'm really keen to give this my all but feeling constantly hungry means I'm struggling a little. Pleased I have managed to stay on plan though. As its another hungry day today I...

Ooo thank u will have a look at the halo health fryer too. Good to know frylight maybe possible- it's just dependant on taste rather than how you MUST use the oil. Thanks for the replies guys. Hubby umming and ahhhing over getting one. Will work on him some more today! poor bloke haha Out of...

Right, today I have been very hungry again and very tempted by cake, but I didn't do it and have been on plan 100 % yay! Feels good to be in control. breakfast - banana ( wasn't hungry til 10) 10am hunger- cous cous salad with tomatoes, onions and courgettes lunch - chicken noodle salad, grapes...

Thanks for the reply guys, just 3 syns for a ton of chips does sound worth it :-) didn't realise you could cook curries in them either. Knowing you can cook more than chips does help sway me towards buying one! now to convince hubby they worth it.....wish me luck lol xx

Hi all, we still have a chance to buy a tefal actifry £100 off using code SW200 from the previous SW mag. So currently the family plus one 1.2kg is £104.99 with the code. this is still a lot of money, so I was wondering if anyone here has one, what they think? Is it wor the cost? Hubby and I...

Updating he syns from yesterday. Didn't have the twirl in the end or the ketchup but had a WW mallow for 2.5 so my new total is 10.5, which feels better x

Day two! breakfast- vanilla muller with blueberries, banana lunch- chicken noodle salad with green beans, peppers. Onion and carrot & free dressing, herby cous cous from yesterday and extra free salad dinner- heck chicken sausages x 2 (1syn), eggs, mushrooms, tomatos, beans, 1tbsp ketchup...

Day 2! made a chicken noodle salad, and have cous cous and tray bake left over from yrsterday. Not sure exactly what I'm having when yet but nice to have plenty of choice :-) breakfast was was muller light with fruit again which I can see will get old very quickly. Think I'd need to make...

Sorry to butt in on the thread, but can I ask what flavour green teas you reccommend? I keep hearing about the benefits of green tea but when I had straight green tea I wasn't keen so thought maybe flavoured green tea might be the way to go? Thanks x

Argh.....I did SW a year ago. Before I joined I went and brought the ryvita cracker reads as I loved how many you could have and loaded them up with HE cheese, and maybe ham, chicken, cucumber and tomatos. Only found out today when I registered on SW site, exploring all the healthy extras, that...

Hi i love fruit teas. I know quite a few people who say they don't taste of much and therefor are not 'worth it', but for me, if u get decent brand and brew for the time recommended then they are very nice. that said, I have recently become a fan of fruitbroo. Liquid instant tea, which I first...

Here we go- day one! Let me know what you think! breakfast- banana muller with banana, & grapes lunch- herby cous cous with green lentils & spring onion, salmon fillet, roasted peppers & salad dinner- chicken tray bake made with chicken thighs (skin removed), courgette, tomatos, peppers, new...

So here we are, weighing more than I ever have before, back on SW again, but DETERMINED that this time both the weight loss and the eating plan is for life! i thought I'd write a food diary so I can keep track of what I'm eating, what works and what doesn't for me, and hopefully help others out...

Oh no starting to feel sick with nerves now :-( hope the consultant is nice/ good. I am a worrier, v scared! Xx

Hi ya, just a quite note to say I'm subscribing after seeing your reply to my post earlier. Great food ideas here, making me hungry lol. Am also a pasta addict hehe. Can't wait to join Monday. Good luck for this week and well done on your losses so far x

Thank you both for all your tips :) getting very excited to be starting now. Will do a food diary on here when I start and I'll try and work out how to post a link here if you still want to follow, thanks :-) I'll also do a diary keeping track of weight loss week to week. Quite pleased with...

Hi all, after delays and many weeks of waiting for our house refurb to be completed I finally am able to join SW As I now have a working kitchen yay! I have have spent the past few weeks trying to get my head in the game as they say, so I brought the current and previous SW mags, been...

Hi, when I started SW Last year I was given up to 20syns per week. I was 23st and the consultant told me I could have a little extra because I'm starting heavier, and therefore need a higher calorie consumption. I was to reduce them at a later date as I got smaller. I unfortunately stopped...

Good luck Hun, will be thinking of you. Sure it'll be fine though, one slip up in the week, and your first week will still mean a loss as you been on plan the rest of the time. Xx

Thanks for posting. Tis a shame though- I really like the light ones. Not keen on the extra light ones. Hey ho will spread them thinner on ryvita! X

Woo hoo brilliant well done :-) now don't go near those evil lying scales at your mums again, nor any other scales apart from SW group ones for that matter. Flipping wobbly inducing worry machines lol xx

Brill thanks! I did wonder how on earth it was done!

Jumbo prawns with a sweet chilli dip sound perfect for me right now. Not bad syn value I thought, thanks for the info x

I think the koko coconut milk is advertised in the new SW mag claiming that you can't tell the difference between it, and cows milk (semi skimmed). No idea if it's true or not but I hope so! - Thinking of trying it as you can have more of it compared to semi skimmed milk, and my daughter (nearly...

Hi all, mind if I join in too? I am going to restart SW again very soon. Am joining when things settle down - new kitchen being fitted plus total house refurb - we are living with inlaws right now but hope to be home in a few weeks. I believe I have over 13 st to loose in total, not sure...

Great thread thanks :-)

Hi Hun, I often have wobbles and they were often weigh at home induced wobbles too. I think all other scales other than scales at weigh in should be ignored Hun. I swear I am giving mine away before I return to SW this time as they caused me no end of grief. Just weighing on a different time of...

Just to say thank you for this post and everyone who has answered. I have the sane issue about going back to SW. This post has made me realise that I'm not alone in re-joining, and that I do need to change my mindset about speed the weight comes off, and how it's a lifestyle change not a quick...

Hi little lady, finding my my way around the site too right now. Will say everyone have been very welcoming & friendly :-) Will be joining SW myself in a few weeks (house currently undergoing major refurb and we have no kitchen yet - once I have a kitchen I'll join lol) thought I'd join this...

Hi, & welcome, brill losses well done. It's inspiring me to think that I Can't wait to get started on SW myself soon good luck for next week weigh in x

Hi ghost fairy, I'm new here and about to join SW. Glad your 1st week is going well for you :-) i love the SW plan. It really does make you think doesn't it. Jealous that your GP prescribes SW where you are- our GP will only prescribe WW which isn't for me. Really hope it goes well for you and...

Hi poshpaddy71 sounds like you are doing great and yes, you can eat all that and loose weight :-) i remember being really sceptical that I could loose weight when I first joined SW. I could not get me head round it. I actually thought to myself ' well ok, you say I can eat eggs, chicken...

Brill article thanks :-) all this reading on how filling yourself up to loose weight is reminding me just how much I love the SW Way of slimming down. Can't bare being hungry lol

Hi forever starting over, Thanks Hun, hope I can support others like they have already supported me on this site :-) Xx

Hey mrossa well done for starting back at SW. Hope you get back into the swing of cooking SW meals again and your group is really supportive. I'm off to buy the SW MAG tomorrow to give me ideas and help get my head in the right zone for when I do join back in a few weeks. SW helped me find a...

Zendognine, i'm not sure I can put into words how much your message has meant to me except to say thank you so much for 2 things- firstly putting things in perspective and secondly for making me feel hopeful :-) You are right, I have others as my motivation but i really do need to do this...

thank you- eager to get back and hoping extra support here will help give me that extra push when needed x

Ooo that sounds great, thank you I will- I love the name WEMITTS- Sounds like exactly what I need :-) x
