2.5 off for me! Hooray!

It's probably something to do with with more exercise! Keep with the extra exercise and being good and it'll soon catch up! :)

2.5lbs off this week! I won't probably be around much now this week - I have a week off SW to do fun things to celebrate my birthday on Wednesday! Hopefully I can get back into the swing of posting my diaries after my week off! :)

Nov Week 3 - 2.5lbs off for me please! :D

How about a massive fruit salad with fat free natural yogurt on top?

Shush - you haven't made it to Thursday yet!

Thanks - I'm seeing the light this week! ;) 17 November 2014 - Extra Easy Breakfast: 35g Bran Flakes with strawberry & banana (HexB), 350ml milk (HexA) Lunch: Leftover bolognaise with mixed veg. 1 quality street (2.5) Afternoon snack: Satsuma & 1 quality street (2.5)

Hello stranger, what's up?

Arrgghh 1lb on!! I'm so rubbish at this game! Back to basics and doubling up on superfree this week!

1lb on! Ah well, I deserved that! Food Diary - 14 November 2014 - Extra Easy Breakfast: 35g Bran Flakes (HexB), banana and 350ml skimmed milk (HexA)

That was really good! It's always easier when you don't like something! :) Yesterday wasn't too bad, there were a couple of biscuits but that's okay. At dinner though the stew was really undercooked so I ended up just making scrambled egg on toast. I had no syns left and I'd already used my...

Yeah I'm trying my best to start afresh. I just let little things slip me up and it wasn't until I was half way through the drink that I though "why am I even drinking this?" But it was amazing!!! :D

I have no self control! :( Yesterday was a wash out. I started off well but on my first stop I spotted that Starbucks were selling Peppermint Mochas (My favourite!) so I had one of those and a giant bag of hula hoops to keep me quiet in the car for a while. Then I went for my meeting and was...

I'm off to a meeting in Luton today, can't really take dinner cos I'll be back n the road then in an office with no microwave/space for me to eat. So I'm saving my healthy extras just incase I need to grab a cheese sandwich. I'm aiming for a subway salad though! :) Food Diary - 11 November-...

I usually save it for a busy week and I get on really well with it. I once had Christmas at a friends and used my syns all in that one day and lost 5lbs!! It means I can still have yummy treats but not feel like I'm being a failure! :) Sent from my iPad using MiniMins.com

Today has been medium. I had a naughty lunch but that's the whole reason why I'm doing weekly syns this week. Breakfast: Banana followed by a bacon and egg toaster with mushrooms (HexB). 1 x latte (hexAish) Lunch: Burger King (35.5) Dinner: SW chips with steak and salad Supper: Twix (5)...

Finally subscribing! :)

A regular McDonald's latte is 7 syns so you're around the right guess, maybe slightly under for a toffee one! :)

1.5lbs off for me too! Well done on all your losses guys!

November Week 1 - Finally 1.5lbs off! It's going the right way! ;) Cheers chick xx

One and a half pounds off! I was gobsmacked as I was definitely expecting a gain! Feels so good to finally get a loss and has spurred me on to be extra good this week! Food Diary - 7 November 2014 Plan: Extra Easy Breakfast - 35g Bran Flakes (HexB) 350ml Skimmed Milk (HexA) and a banana...

Can you take some herbal tea bags and just ask for hot water instead? It sounds gross but as long as I have a hot drink in my hand, I don't really care if it's coffee, tea or herbal! There's some lovely flavours out there as well.

I'm crossing everything for you! I'll look funny when I walk down the street but it'll be worth it if you get a loss! ;)

I love feeling excited about weigh in if I've had a good week - such a good feeling. Especially when you step on the scales and the outcome matches the effort you've made! Make sure you come tell us how you've done!

Soup and jelly are my lifesavers!

I think starting afresh is a good idea and you've definitely got a realistic target! You can totally do it!

If I've had a bad weekend, I usually deprive myself of syns during the week to make up for it. Which is probably then why I go nuts again on the weekend. So I'm going to allow myself all my syns this week anyway so I don't feel deprived come Friday evening. Also, my brother has finally moved...

Thanks guys - I hope so! I'm going to try my hardest to maintain and then try and not have ANOTHER weekend like it!

And I've gone off the rails again!! Busy, busy weekend with lots of moving my brother into his new flat and no time to eat anything decent. Food Diary - 3rd November Plan: Extra Easy Breakfast: 35g Bran Flakes (HexB) with strawberries. 350ml skimmed milk (HexA) Morning snack: Banana & a...

Another half on this week (oops!) next week WILL be a loss, I'm running out of weight to put back on!!

Yesterday was a write off. I was busy all day. Breakfast was all you can eat breakfast at Harvester, then my friend cooked me a SW breakfast for lunch then for tea I had party food at my nephew's party. Only put on half a pound though but this needs to stop or I'll never lose weight!! Food...

How many syns are in a kitkat chunky?

I wouldn't knock 3lb a week, that's actually really good! Once I get into the swing of the diet I sometimes only lose 1lb a week. Those big losses you see are probably from members who need to lose a lot more or even are in their first week (I lost half a stone the first week I ever did SW)...

It took a hell of a lot of constraint! Though I'd rather have one than none! ;) There's a tub of biscuits at the end of my bank of desk, I filled them last week while on my "see food" diet and they're still there so one a day is okay with me! ;) Food Diary - 28 October Plan - Extra Easy...

Yeah it's basically Extra Easy but with 2/3rds superfree and an extra Healthy Extra. So basically you don't need to count your free foods (lean meat, potatoes, pasta, rice etc) as long as you're only eating them as part of a meal with the super free. Otherwise stay away (no snacking on...

Fajitas are worth the syns IMO! ;) And I was 18 as a student and still hiding in the corner from all the skinny minnies with not a lot on!

I sometimes find that as long as my meals are SW friendly, it goes a long way to helping! Sounds like you've had an exciting couple of weeks though - you need to have a social life as well as be skinny - there's no point in being skinny if you don't have friends to enjoy it with! ;)

You can never have too much ham/bacon! It's the best meat ever!

Brekkie is amazing!! I normally have Natural yogurt on fruit but we were all out so it was a bit banana-y this morning!

Hey guys, glad to see you all back. Funny how we've been awol at the same time Mel! Yesterday went well. I had 8 syns in the cinema (ice cream) and I had a latte with my leftover milk. Food diary - 26th Diary Plan - Success Express Breakfast: Strawberry, banana and kiwi with a banana and...

That sounds like a good idea and is what I struggle with the most. Last night I was like "oh well, I've had the biscuits, I might as well have the pistachios and a twix and a naughty cup of tea even though I don't have any milk left..." that's what ruins what could be a good week otherwise!

Eek so today was going great until they unveiled the free biscuits at the course I was on. Then my sister came over to watch Greys and brought a bag of pistachio nuts with her. Yum. So the rest of the week is going to be damage control - under 10 syns at least and I may pull out a Success...

Lucky escape this week and I only put on 1/2lb! Phew!

Super-frees are your fruit and veg! :)

Sorry I've been AWOL. I'm back in work but I've got a stinking cold. I'm fed up of fighting being ill and the diet so I've given myself the week off before I go crazy. Hopefully after weigh-in I can get straight back on it!

Thanks chick! My plan is to use weekly syns to cover tonight and Monday night, trying to count where I can. I can usually do it because I mostly use my syns on evening treats which I can easily substitute with yummy fruit like mango.

Stayed the same! :( I'm really annoyed because I've been good all week again!

Stayed the same this week, which is really fustrating. Could have done with a loss because these last couple of weeks have been ***** but I've still stayed on track with my diet! I'm not expecting to lose this week as I have a family engagement party tonight and I'm going out Monday night with...

Finally found you to subscribe! I've never been diagnosed as luckily, I don't think my binge eating was tied to anything emotional - I'm just a greedy little person! ;) Good luck!

Congratulations ohhowiwish - that's an amazing result, especially seeing a new number on the scales! Good luck to everyone else today. I'm a bit nervous because, although I've stuck to plan, I've gone over once or twice on my syns and the scales could go either way!

ooh I've never heard of either!

Good luck with everything Kay! I think you've made the right decision to choose one thing to focus on. Give it your all and I'm absolutely positive that you'll make the decision that's best for you. Look forward to hearing from you soon xxx

Oh no! Sorry to hear about your stress. Sometimes it's okay to pause your journey while you deal with everything you need to. Deal with your stress first then get back on the diet once that's sorted. Don't make yourself ill!

Hi Sian, how are you finding success express?

Haha oops! I'll take a look at yours too. btw love your username!

That's great news about your trousers! Well done chick!

I love pink grapefruit more than orange. My best friend has announced she's bringing me cake this afternoon in the hope of it healing my bum!! How many syns in a home made cupcake do you think?!?

Guys, guys - we lost a total of 20 and a half pounds last night! We did good! :D

Thanks guys! I'm so chuffed. I only had a leg off the frog and put it back in the fridge so I can enjoy it for a few treat nights yet. Straight back on it today! I decided to change my stats on here and reset it to when I started again after booking my holiday. That way I can forget about...

2.5lbs off tonight. Dead chuffed considering I've spent the week lying on the sofa and I feel like my butt is the size of the Empire State Building!

I hardly did any snacking yesterday which is a little weird for me. I've woken up this morning and haven't had much of an appetite either. I'm back in work, in agony but off for lunch and a massage this afternoon in the hope that helps a little. I hope my appetite comes back before lunch...

ooh you'll have to share some of the recipes for them if they work out well. I wish I could get my mum to plan but she's a stickler for the same meals over and over. I can't wait to move out!

That chilli beef looks yum! :D

Hey! Congrats on your plans to have another little one and I love how you're not using the fact you're thinking of getting pregnant as an excuse to get fat - well done you!

The ryvita crackerbread is no longer a healthy extra. I found this out when I rejoined and was gutted - used to love having them with laughing bell extra light, ham and tomatoes! A lot of the other Ryvitas still are though! :) They are 1 syn each though so easy to just syn then have your HexB...

I'm joining this thread just because of all the egg talk - mmm yummy!

I know! Stupid thing is I shouldn't feel guilty about not being in! Its the first time I've been off sick since January 2013!

Mmmm both meals sound amazing!

I might have to. Chances are it would take them all the time I'm off to get me one!! LOL

They're my favourites too! Although if I feel I need more of a crisp-type hit, I've been turning to Propercorn! They're between 4 and 6 syns a bag, and come in loads of flavours and last longer than a bag of pops!

Lying on my front hurts the least. I tried working standing up yesterday morning but I was getting back ache from leaning over my desk. They can't just be risen apparently, you need to put in a business case to get a standing desk and it takes up to 6 weeks! And I'm a PA so could only work...

I think if it's still sore tomorrow I might go. I think my boss would expect me to go too if I'm staying off! I guess if nothing else I can get a scribe for stronger ibruprofen and some tips on how to allieve some of the pain. I got accepted onto a team yesterday and my first training is...

That's why we call it the ONS ass! You get there and your ass expands!! :lol: Second day off on the sick! I feel like such a fraud since I'm not really ill, just can't handle sitting at my desk and the associated pain! I've painted my nails to try and cheer myself up instead of turning to...

Well done for picking yourself up chick! Get that mince out and get a massive pot of chilli made up, that will definitely help!

Yep! Completely free and so tasty!

Yum, I love tuna pasta. Do you mean the contraceptive pill? I got the implant and found it a lot easier to lose weight!

Thanks! I'm so proud of myself coz I've been off work sick and starving all day. It's mostly because I'm bored because I'm not really sick but I can't handle sitting at my desk all day at the moment!

I'm coming in to shout for being so horrible about yourself! Stop it! :( I'm sure you weren't the fattest person there, you just think you were because you're being so down on yourself! Your diet sounds good today, I love cheese on toast dipped in soup, it's such a comfort but it's so great if...

I'm so glad I'm not the only one! Given the choice I could eat all day! I absolutely love food and really don't know when to stop!

ooh well you sound super motivated! ;-)

Stayed the same is better than a gain though. Maybe it'll come off double next week?

I love how motivated you are - it's really infectious! I'm a bit concerned about your consultant's reaction though, she should have been looking at ways to help! Are you keeping a food diary? This way she can look at it and find out what's going on (if anything is going on)? You could always...

You are so good! I would have destroyed both buffets and the cake! Well done!

Yeah I've been on track completely so far this week and that's what is keeping me away from the biscuit tin today!

Had a rubbish night's sleep last night. Everything hurts and I think I've really damaged by Coccyx as I can't sit or lie for more than a few minutes! :( Hopefully can stick to plan today, but I know it's going to be tough. When I feel like this, I usually go straight for the junk! Breakfast...

Good luck with that Sian! Get on the coke zero and get a SW brekkie down your face before you start! ;)

Are there any Potterheads still around?

Where are you going? Perhaps we can suggest some low syn options to help? Or are you going with the plan on having a massive eat? :)

Sounds like you should have been invited from the start. I wouldn't have even given them their present and card. How rude!

What?! That doesn't make sense. So they invited you to the church but not for the wedding reception?! How cruel is that, especially if you've done a lot of work for them! Some people are just ****ing rude!

This happens to me all the time. Are these the only 64 syns you've had so far this week? That's okay, you've still got 41 syns left for the rest of the week!

So I've just been to my first Roller Derby session and I'm already looking online to get myself some skates. I absolutely loved it and I wondered if there were any other derby girls out there, or just girls using skating to exercise? :)

Good luck with the buffets! I can't resist all that savoury food!

The gain is tiny and I'm definitely in the right mood for it this week. Although, I may struggle today. I jsut did my first roller derby session and I fell on my butt. I can barely walk and I definitely can't sit! Food Diary - 27 September Plan: Extra Easy Breakfast: Scrambled egg...

I put on half a pound but I think the SE kept off more of the pounds cos I did have quite a binge on the Friday and then was picky. I'm going to try and do it on the weekends for now, as it's a bit more difficult when I'm in work!

Well done on the loss! :D

I ended up putting on half a pound. Really annoyed because I thought I had done enough to lose! Ah well, back on it 100% today (though today is the Macmillan Coffee Morning so there'll be cakes galore in the office!)

I would have had a massive binge if I had put on so good on you for still being good.

That pesky wine!! It's evil on purpose I'm sure of it. My motto is "there's no point in being skinny if you haven't got any friends to enjoy it with!" if I get to target by my target date it would have taken me four years. But in these four years I've made more friends, done more things...

I think this is such a good idea. I DETEST my graduation photos because I'm so huge and it's not like I can get them redone again! :(

I'm definitely up for kicking butt! Feeling okay about weigh in today, I may maintain or put on a little but since I booked the holiday I've been good so that's a start (I even had low fat sorbet in the cinema last night instead of a full fat ice cream!)

Food Diary - 24 September 2014 Plan: Extra Easy Breakfast: 35g Museli (HexB), 350mls Skimmed Milk (for teas & coffess throughout the day), Berry & banana fruit salad Morning Snack: Carrots & Celery Lunch: J.Potato with Tuna & loads of salad Afternoon snack: A pear & one praline...

Hi JimJam, How did your weigh in go after? Don't forget that your scales at home can be different to the ones used at class (unless of course you're doing this at home?)

Yey - well done! :D

I'm trying it again today after having a day off yesterday and switching back to extra easy. My mum is complaining that its costing her the earth in fruit and veg! Part of me is kind of excited to weigh in this week!

Food Diary - 23 September 2014 Plan: Extra Easy Breakfast: 35g Porridge Oats (HexB), 350mls Skimmed Milk (for porridge & tea and coffee throughout the day), Raspberries & a banana Morning Snack: Apple Lunch: Prawn Salad with one tbsp extra light mayo 1 syn Afternoon Snack: Satsuma...

I'm subscribing to this Sarah! Sounds like we're very similar with our slimming habits - I like the diet to fit in with my lifestyle too, not the other way around! But some of your menus look yummy so I'm hoping to get inspiration from you! :)

I think my concern is having the extra Healthy Extras. I've only ever stuck to Extra easy in the past so being told I can have two A's & B's is quite alien to me! :silly:

I'm in Newport. Not very many people speak Welsh down our way but I'm very Welsh and proud!

I know! Maybe I should save and finance the course myself at college but I'm a bit reluctant if I know I can get it free somewhere! :lol:

Don't forget your scales at home may be slightly different than the ones in class. I always weigh myself after class and make a note of the difference to help me keep on track if I'm having a naughty weigh mid-week! :)

I've been trying to get on a beginners course with work but I'm the only one interested at the moment so the course won't happen any time soon! :(

I was just about to come in and suggest the same thing. If you're not measuring or tweaking your HEXBs then that would be the first thing I'd look at! :)

Oh yeah... duh! *smacks head* I'll give that a try tomorrow! ;)

Hi guys! I have been a lurker on this site for forever, it's always been my "to-go" when I've needed to find something out. I've been a diet procrastinator for 3 years now and it's about time I did something and got back on my bike for good so I'm hoping that being a member here will really...

Hey guys - I'm a new Thursday weigher (well, new to these forums - not new to weighing in unfortunately!) Despite a chinese binge on Friday (and cheesecake to top it all off) I'm quite looking forward to weigh in this week! Good luck to all! :)

Ooh Leslie - your diary has inspired me to have a few different meals. That pizza is a crafty bugger though isn't it?? :(

Oh my gosh - well done for losing so much so quickly! Don't be disheartened - I know they say that weight loss/gain doesn't follow you around but maybe your body needs a couple of weeks to catch up with itself after losing so much weight so quickly? I wish I could work that quickly! ;) I...

This thread is really helpful. I'm trying SE to give me a much needed boost this week though I've been so concerned because I'm eating more of stuff I've been told not to eat before (i.e extra Healthy Extras!) Here's my diary from yesterday, can someone let me know if I'm getting it right...

Good on you for getting back on it! My life is crazy enough without having children to look after!

Hi Biggabird. Maintaing is definitely a win but have you tried Success Express for a bit of a boost? I'm trying it for the first time this week as I've been stuck in a little diet rut recently! I'm subscribing so I can let you know how it goes, in the hope that my experience may help yours! :)

Food Diary - 22 September 2014 Plan: Success Express Breakfast: 35g Bran Flakes (1 HEXB ), 350mls Skimmed milk (not all on cereal, rest used on tea throughout the day - 1 HEXA). Big bowl of melon and a banana. Morning snack: Toffee Muller Light & apple Lunch: Diet Fanta Chicken, Noodles...

Hello, I'm completely brand-new to this site. I've been browsing for years and have finally decided to take the plunge in the hope of getting my butt kicked and getting my Slimming back on track! I originally started Slimming World in October 2011 after going on holiday with my parents and...
