Good morning all, just a quickie today as I have a job interview this morning. Thank you, my little helper helped adorn the tree, hence the overkill on decorations but that is what Christmas is all about. She was going to be an angel Sarah however during the night she had a high temperature and...

Thank you ladies. :) I shall have to dig deep today, a cold I had has gone to my ear and I have cracking earache and deafness in my left ear. It kept me awake most of the night and usually when I am tired during the day it is my snacking weakness time. I really don't feel like moving from the...

Thanks KatSparks. My weight loss is slowing down now but I am happy to lose it at a more leisurely pace, I am actually enjoying the journey. I never eat fruit on it's own, so I don't have the blood sugar lifts and then crashes. Or even worse for me - the food cravings later. I have fresh fruit...

Canny.

Well done on your weight loss to date. I like to section things off into mini goals too - it gives good motivation, especially as you achieve each mini goal. I spasmodically work nights and I know that I am more hungry during those weeks... especially as I can't sleep the next day as I have a...

Write down every thing you eat, every day, it makes you accountable and you can keep an eye on your weekly syn allowance. Incorporate daily exercise into your routine, even if it is just a 30 minute walk. Focus on each day and the little things you do each day that move you towards your goal...

I don't have 'free' portions of carbs (potatoes, pasta, rice) I have modest portions. But I do have large protein, fruit and veg portions. A lot of carbs has always slowed my weight loss and gives me food cravings. Moderate carbs, good fats (nuts, olive oil, coconut oil, dairy), free portions...

Well done Matt! :clap: Welcome to the 12's. x x

Make sure your carbohydrate portions (rice, pasta, potatos) aren't really huge - that can stall weight loss. Don't give up, you will crack it and get there. xx

Excellent result!! Well done Clair. :clap: xx

I hope you're feeling better soon, I pulled a muscle in my neck a few years ago, very bloody painful. I spent two weeks walking like a robot. Keep up the good SW work too. xx

I lost 2lbs this week - taking me to 12st 11 so I now feel firmly cemented in the 12's rather than teetering near the 13's. Well done on your losses this week ladies, especially those that hit the elevens. We look forward to being with you soon. xx

My final weigh in for April today, and I lost 2lbs, missing my goal by 1 pound but I am very pleased with my progress on the whole.

Fitting into nice, tailored size 10 and 12 clothes rather than shapeless dark coloured clothing. Feeling healthy, fit and energetic. Being at optimum health to take care of my three year old... and for a long long time to come. Being comfortable/confident naked. In honesty the list is endless...

Well done Fiddle Girl, a great double result!! Well done. xx Good luck LilMissEmmyLou fingers crossed for a nice loss (however I do think all losses are nice.) xx

There are slow weight-loss weeks and great celebration weight-loss weeks. There are weeks when we over indulge and feel down and weeks when we stay on plan and feel positive. As long as the general direction takes us closer to goal and we never give up, even if one or two bad weeks come our...

Well done on the weight loss so far ChrisDeston. It's very doable from home and this is a nice friendly sub-group and Minimins as a whole are ideal for the support. Have a great SW week. xx

Good luck with your weigh in, I am sure you will see some action on the scales. XXX

Dates.

Replacing food with something else you find relaxing may help (hard I know as food is an instant hit of relaxation.) I like a deep, long, hot bath; a power nap; a walk in the sunshine; listening to good music; a cuddle from my wee one; a nice cup of coffee and chat with a friend; crossword book...

I think a lot of these rude reactions are based on fear. You're moving forward and improving yourself - they are not - they are getting left behind. Your success makes them uncomfortable at the lack of their own. When you're overweight and fed up - they feel more comfortable - misery loves...

Well done Boofle, an excellent result! xxx

I am expecting a small gain this week Nanny D - two meals out and syns just went out of the window lol - yes roll on May, quickly!! xx

Have you cut out a lot of chocolate or coffee or tea out of your diet? I get horrible caffeine withdrawal if I cut out coffee or tea cold turkey - and the symptoms are just like you described. xx

Hello Purplepen. Welcome but hopefully here for just a brief time before you get into the 11's. Have a nice weekend. xx

My next goal is getting to 12st 7 - and that will be my 2 stone loss award. 6lbs to go. xx

I have bounced for 30 minutes last night. Thighs a little sore but feel good and so pleased to have found something to do at night when the wee one is in bed. Hopefully they will help tone up my wobbly bits as I lose. :) xx

Better off than on FiddleGirl... and in the right direction. X x

As women will not be able to see the butt implants... why buy them if not for somebody else's viewing pleasure? Or displeasure as I see it. ;) xx

I think those mammoth - totally out of proportion - elephant bums are horrible. I can't believe celebs are actually going under the knife to have buttock implants, they look as though their arses are about to give birth. They pay to look freakish... and for what? To make themselves more sexually...

Traps.

Well done for sticking to SW ... even with a moody boyf. It can be hard to stay on track when others put some stress in our direction but you should feel empowered you handled it so well and didn't turn to food. Good luck for a loss on Wednesday. xx

Good luck with your weigh-in. And well done for losing nearly 4 stone to date, excellent weight loss. xx

Have your carb portions (pasta, potatoes, rice etc) being very large? I know they say unlimited but I find those are the things that can make my weight loss stall. Huge protein and veg portions don't seem to have the same effect on me. xx

Waves.

I have a little one and once she is in bed, I am tied to the house. So I am quite fancying one of these little trampettes as an evening work out, to do in front of Corrie. :D Buy Pro Fitness Trampette at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for Trampettes. < seriously contemplating this puppy...

I am an abstainer. If I have one, why not have six... my brain seems to rationalise along those lines. So, I go without but I don't feel like I am going without... I spent thirty years over indulging, time to live it lean lol. xx

As far as I am aware the plans are Extra Easy - which is just about any food goes on this plan - so suitable to you. And SP days - which are 'speed protein' days if you want a quick boost to your losses every now and again. Meat is not the only protein as you know there are nuts, pulses, veg...

Some days I have no syns other days 30 syns... it hasn't affected my weekly losses. I think it counts as the week as a whole (as we get weighed weekly) rather than daily. Try not to worry... you enjoyed Nandos, get back on track today and have a few less syns to compensate. xx

Thanks ladies... the spot peaked yesterday and looks less angry today... it may even cover up by tomorrow. ;) xx

You're doing really well. Well done on the 2lb loss again this week. I am looking forward to going from the obese BMI to just overweight bracket too. 7lbs to go... XX

Thanks for setting up the challenge Nanny D. x I would like to lose 14lbs in April. Nanny Doreen - Target 5lbs. Pink - Target 14lbs.

Great!! Thank you for setting up the new thread. XX

Well done, that's a great loss. And congrats on the stone and a half award too. xx

Excellent weight loss - well done you!!!! XX

I like frozen grapes - they taste so much sweeter frozen, last for ages and are free!

Lol.... this made me laugh out loud. Very good. x

Thank you ladies... the support is lovely. :character00100:

Coffee - a cup of coffee curbs my cravings Grapes - I like them frozen. They take a lot longer to eat and seem to get sweeter. Low-fat cream cheese - nice in lettuce and slices turkey/chicken wraps. Peppermint and green tea from Twinnings - refreshing and stimulating. Cauliflower - for...

A bag of popcorn... one of those salty and sweet ones. They come in around six syns each. I have a thing for popcorn at the moment. And frozen grapes. xx

I know your impatience well... I am like that too. If I haven't lost three stone in three weeks I normally give up. I have been trying to lose weight for over 20 years and I got to the point where I was so sick and fed up with it. I was constantly setting myself up to feel disappointed in...

Thank you... I am very pleased with the loss, yes. I am going to an Italian restaurant... which means pasta, pizza, pastry and icecream. It is a hard menu to choose healthy options I think, especially as I don't eat gluten. But this place in particular does serve gluten free pasta dishes so I...

You have done exactly the right thing Becka, had a syn blow out (who doesn't) but you have got straight on the saddle the next day and have eaten extra light. It is so easy to let one syn heavy day become two or three... and then to give up. You have nipped it straight in the bud. Well done...

Thrilled to say a 4lbs loss this week... out for a meal this evening and it's likely to be syn heavy so no chance to sit on my laurels... straight back on it to focus on a loss for next week. I shall eat lighter today and go syn easy for a few days afterwards. Keep up the good work all. xx...

I hope everyone is well.... bit of a miserable day outside. I am soooo looking forward to Spring and Summer. Good news in the Pink Camp... 4lbs loss today and I am thrilled. :clap: I have only had such good losses from a VLCD. However I know the weightloss will slow now and I must keep my eyes...

Well done everyone!! Keep going in the right direction. xx I have lost 4lbs this week, so I am very pleased to say that is an 11 lb loss for March, beating my target by 1lb. And now for April and my third week on the plan... the harder work begins as the losses slow down and early motivation...

Thank you ladies. xx I have no doubt I will have the odd week where I do give in and dive on the choc or crisps but that's real life isn't it. I shall just keep my eyes on the prize.

First weekly weigh from doing SW at home and I am thrilled to say I have lost 7lbs. I know it's my first week and it will be water weight but after doing all the little things in the right direction: getting out for some exercise everyday, logging my food on the online diary every single day...

Weighed in today. It's my first week and I have lost 7lb so I am really thrilled. I am no longer in the 200lbs bracket!! :character00100: But still in the 14's for at least another week as I am now 14stone exactly... so now the hard work really begins. No fast weight loss like the first week...

Journey

I joined SW Online last Thurs (no meetings near me that fit into my schedule) so I hope you don't mind me joining your lovely group for the support. I am a typical yoyo dieter, lose a couple of stone and then gain a couple of stone back. I am also a very impatient dieter and I know this is my...

I hope you don't mind me joining in a little late, it's my first official weigh in on Thursday, so I will have two weigh ins before the end of the month. As it's my first weigh-in I shall be ambitious and say 10lb for March. Fingers crossed... good luck everyone. xx Nanny Doreen - Target 4lbs...

Wow an amazing five stones weight loss Flash Harry, well done you!! xx I am currently weighing in at 14st 1. Hoping to be in the 13's by Weigh In day on Thursday. Good luck everybody. xx

Swell

Good luck - You can do it!! xx

Encounters

Had a mid-week sneak weigh-in this morning... I know I came off the back of a VLCD but I have only lost 1lb. Not very good considering it's my first week but I know why... I totally blew my healthy eating on Sunday. But as I said yesterday... it's a fresh start and I got straight back on plan...

I've made some totally superfree and very tasty ice-lollies. I made a cup of Twinning's herbal tea (mango and strawberry) with two tea bags... let them brew for five minutes, removed teabags, put it in a jug and then added a further cup of cold water and then put it into the lolly mould and...

Thank you Lougalx. I am very glad to be rid of him... on reflection I was quite unhappy with him but just lost sight of it with the day to day busyness of work and a toddler taking my focus. Feeling bloating and lethargic after yesterday's wheat fest... I am sure to have a migraine later on...

One of my friend's goes to a SW group on Saturday mornings... I have decided to join for extra support as I think it will help me keep focused over the dreaded weekends. So my official weigh-in day will now be Saturday. Also it is exactly six weeks until I go on holiday. I would love.. love...

A bit of a nightmare weekend food wise... I followed my food plan until last night and then had two bags of crisps at 10pm as I was feeling fed up. So today when I went to a birthday lunch party I foolishly thought 'sod it for this weekend' and I ate a huge portion of lasagne with wedges and...
