Week 27: -4.5lbs Total loss so far: -46.5lbs So chuffed!!! That puts my next award within sight, which always inspires me :) love a shiny sticker and certificate Had a good week, I went out last night again but had about 40 syns of drinks so not too bad at all compared to my past form! I can...

4.5lb off this week, so 20.5lb to go by end of 2016 to meet my mini goal :) got slimmer of the week this week too, yay!

Weighed in at 15st 3.5lb today- hopefully be in the 14s by next month!!

Weighed in today and 4.5lbs down this week!! If I wasn't going on holiday this month I'd up my target, but I'm wary I might gain on holiday! Pleased with this week :)

Hello! I'd like to join this challenge with a goal of 7lbs loss for September :) weigh day is Saturday and I'm on holiday on the 17th. Going to Spain for a week so we will see how I get on with this 7lb goal with a week away argh!

Week 26: maintain Had a huge night out the night before weigh in, so wasn't surprised at the scales! I weigh on a Saturday, and by Thursday the scales were showing a -3lb loss - and by Saturday, a maintain. Hoping for a good loss this Saturday as hopefully it was just water retention making...

3lb off for me this week! Hit my 3st award

3lb off this week! So that's 25lb to go by end of December :) I don't do any body magic really @lindsey81, I am thinking of starting weekly yoga classes though :)

-3lb taking me to 15.8 today! Chuffed with that - now hoping to hit the 14 st bracket by mid October. Let's do this!!! Feeling super motivated :)

@20thcenturycat I got a few more of the eat play love (is that right?! Am I mixing it up with the film?!) ones they gave away in the last countdown offer, the 12 week journals :) Week 25 - 3lb off and my 3st award! Bang on 3St lost to date. Chuffed with this - I didn't aim to get my 3st this...

well done on your losses, you look amazing - the difference is really noticeable! x

long time no update! i'm now 2st 11lb down (as of last week's weigh in). here's what i have been eating this week: today: B - ham and cheese toastie (hexA, B) L - tuna pasta with butternut squash spaghetti instead of pasta (1/2 syn for oil) Snack - fish sticks (free) D - Chicken in white sauce...

hey all, room for one more to join? i've done some of the monthly and quarterly challenges before but i really like the idea of losing x by the end of the year :) so with 4 months to go, i'd like to lose another 2 stone before 31 december 2016 (so that's 28 lbs in 19 weeks - i think that's...

Update - I fell off the wagon for a while; I had a really busy 6 weeks with moving house, job interviews, different work experience placements every week, and being further from my SW group meant I missed a few weeks too so the slide really took hold. Week 24 and I am now down a total of 39 lbs...

15.11 today, I'm not my lowest (was 15.10 a few weeks ago) but finally getting my head back on track :) hoping to be at 15.8 (my 3st award) ideally within 3 weeks, as that would feel like an achievement :)

Congratulations on target, that is brilliant news!!

hello! weighed in this week at 15 st 12 so i'm finally joining this thread :) i started out at 18 st 8 in february so i'm really chuffed to be here already!

weighed in today at 15 st 12 so i'm off to the 15s thread now :woohoo:see you all over there soon :D

miraculous 3.5 lbs off this week :woohoo: that's 2st 10lbs lost in 17 weeks :)

3.5lb off for me, thanks Kay :)

hi Kay, i'm in for this again :) Saturday weigh in I'd like to lose 20 lbs I have one holiday - 17 September

3.5 lbs off today :D :D :D

Week 17: -3.5 lbs!! And slimmer of the week :) I am now into the 15s (yaaaay) and I got my 2.5 stone award today too. This brings me to 2 stone 10 lbs lost so far - it's kind of crazy to think how much I've managed! Pretty sure this is the lightest I've been since I was a teenager. I think...

Thanks guys :) Week 16: -0.5 Another half lb off this week - basically last night I got v v drunk so I'm chalking it up to water retention as my home scales showed me 3lb lighter on Fri morning than they did on Sat morning before weigh in! This past week was always going to be difficult for...

i'm now 16st 1.5 so so nearly out of the 16s! my home scales have been showing me as being in the 15s for most of this week, but then i drank all the prosecco last night and weighed in at home as 16 1/2lbs, and 16 1.5lbs in group (as clothing etc) so hopefully this will be my last week in the...

i've been a bit awol, oops. i'm now at 2 st 6.5 lbs lost in 16 weeks (including losing 0.5lbs this week)

0.5lb off again this week. I'd like things to speed up a bit more, I can't lie, but a loss at all is good this week as I've been on a work placement with limited food options!

Another 0.5 off this week - I would have liked more but it's been a busy week with a lot of syns! A loss is a loss :)

Thanks Kay! Btw did you add my half a pound loss for week 4 of may? I think I'm half a pound closer to my quarterly target xx

Week 15: -1.5lbs Yay! I wasn't expecting any loss (had a cheeky peek at scales at home) and I'd had a really full week with a birthday, hen do and date all off plan. Plus I'd eaten all my syns all week so I hadn't really tried to limit the damage. Aaaand it turns out that I got star week...

-1.5 for me this week! Happy with that but don't think I'll hit my quarter target (since it's 8lb in 3 weeks :/) will still try tho!

1.5 off for me today! Very happy with that - had a hen do, birthday, date off plan and ate all my syns still all week! Hoping for my 2.5 stone award next week :) (1 lb away)

Of course not Trefoil, the more the merrier! Belated update Week 14: -0.5 The scales flickered and ranged from -1.5 before settling on -0.5. I'm ok with that! Hopefully it means a decent loss next week. The night before weigh in I'd gone out with a friend and eaten a little off plan - I'd...

Yes, different for all - I've lost 2st 4.5lb but I've only gone down one size in trousers (and some of my old size 22 trousers that i was wearing before still fit me comfortably, whilst others size 22s hang off me). I've gone down at least one size on top, maybe two, and an entire band size on...

I'm up for this again although I didn't make last month's target! I want to lose 8lbs this month and my weigh day is saturday :) (Hopefully 8 will be manageable if I keep consistently losing, and consistent losses are all I want!)

-0.5 off for me last Saturday :)

16 3.5 now- slowly getting nearer to the 15s!

-0.5 for me at Saturdays weigh in :)

Nsv - I got into size 18 stretch jeans (not jeggings) at dotty p's - I haven't been able to do that since I was 18!

Thanks so much, hearing your story is really motivating :) I'm 5'4 and have been up to 19 stone before so it's particularly great to hear from someone who has been in the same position! I wish I'd done this earlier in life but better now than never :)

yay glad to see there's some other saturday weighers still around :) how did you guys get on today? i got -3.5lbs - really pleased with this as i wasn't expecting much of a loss, if any! i think i've finally broken the plateau i had around 1st 10/12 by upping my syns and eating more :)

Week 13: -3.5lbs Really pleased!! I went in not expecting much of a loss and would have been pleased with 1lb as tbh I'd been weighing myself at home and so thought I knew not to expect much. I think this is down to a combo of things - most importantly that I've eaten almost ALL of my syns...

I lost 3.5lb today so I'm 16 st 4! Really looking forward to entering the 15s hopefully in the next 3 or 4 weeks :)

3.5lbs off this week - I think I can now say my mini plateau appears to have been broken!!

3.5 lbs off for me this week!! Absolutely chuffed as wasn't expecting anything much!

looks like i'm the only saturday weigher now!! missed last week, but unofficially i had a 0.5lb gain showing that week. this week: -2lb (but that's not counting the unofficial gain, so really i lost -2.5lb, but for the purposes of my book etc it was -2) got my 2st award today too! yeah :D

week 12: -2lbs that's not taking into account last week's 0.5lb gain though, as that wasn't recorded in the books or system as i didn't have my card - so it's really -2.5. pleased as that got me to my 2st award :) this week it's been more about the NSVs to me though - i'm glad to have got...

2.5 off for me this week! I think my body was getting used to the calorie deficit. I had an off plan day at the weekend and I think that's kick-started things again yay! Hopefully I'm not jinxing myself - touch wood!!!

2.5 off for me this week!! I relaxed a bit and let my hair down (wine, cake in small amounts) and I think my body needed that, I think I was maybe being too restrictive before? Or it just needed a few higher calorie days to accept it was still getting food!

16 st 7.5 now! Very pleased to have made a bit more of a dent in the 16s after a frustrating few weeks :)

I had a wonderful day, thanks! It was so lovely :D a really needed good day of celebrations, and all my family noticed my weight loss which made me feel amazing! xxx No idea what the scales will say this week, but I don't care!! I had a HUGE NSV today - for months I've said that I haven't...

0.5lb on for me as of Thursday, so I'm at 16.10. Looks like I'll be stuck in the 16s for a while :(

Week 11 - +0.5lb!! Feels like my body is suddenly resistant to SW atm. I've gone back to EE and gained half a pound! I weighed in early on Thursday, and at a different time and in different conditions to normal (usually weigh first thing before eating anything, had to weigh in after lunch), so...

I'm still on plan but the last three weeks I have STS, lost only 2.5lb on a sp week, then put on 0.5 - my body has suddenly just become resistant :/ before that I was averaging 3lb off a week. I initially chalked it up to some meds I was on but I finished those about 10 days ago. So I'm really...

I weighed in early and unofficially yday Kay as I'm away tomorrow so can't make group - +0.5lb for me I'm afraid. My body seems to have become tolerant to SW :/ I'm still eating on plan, idk why this is :(

Weighed in early and unofficially this week as I can't make my normal group - 0.5lbs ON. Lately I'm having a really difficult time with SW, I'm still eating on plan but really struggling to lose consistently :( the last 4 weeks my losses have hugely slowed down. Not a happy chappy :(

Yes please, sorry autocorrect! Xx

Hi Sarah, can I change my target to 8.8.5lbs? That would take me to bang on my 2.5 stone award :)

Week 10: -2.5lb I was hoping it would be a bit more tbh since I did a full SP week and I also sorted out my stomach issues from last week. But it's a loss and it's better than last week's maintain so onwards and downwards! I'm going to reduce my bread again and see what the scales sayou next...

2.5 lb off this week - obv it's an improvement on a maintain but it's not what I was hoping for since I did a full sp week and my stomach issues were sorted out :(

2.5lb off for me this week so 16 st 9.5 now :)

2.5 lbs off for me this week :)

2.5 off for me this week so I've made my target for april :)

so i'm not weighing in yet but i had a great NSV and wanted to post! been doing an SP week (day 5 so far and loving it) and taken something for my stomach and the scales at home are shifting, so that's hopefully a good indicator...! i went to primark yesterday to buy some new bits - mostly i...

stick with it and keep going minnie! i STS at my last weigh in and i think it's because of some meds i was taking as i was ill that week but was within my daily syns and eating free and speed food etc. i decided to do an SP week this week to shake things up a bit, see if my body was just getting...

congratulations on hitting target! well done lovely, amazing work :) xx

Strawberries - my fav speed food! Or oats :)

Yes please! Can you put me down for 8lb for the month? I weigh on Saturdays :)

Awww thank you lovely, seeing this made my night - I know you're right :) xx

0lb loss this week :confused: not happy with that at this point in my journey (still got potentially 6st to shift, it's not like target is getting close or anything)

Thanks guys :) It's really nice to get positive posts from you all in general, but it's really helpful this week as: Week 9: Maintain. Long and short of it - I've been on plan all week but I have eaten differently than I usually would, because I've been v ill all week. However what's really...

Got a maintain this week - bit gutted about it as I was on plan all week, but I've been pretty ill and had some side effects from meds to treat the illness, which is the reason for the maintain. going to try and smash it for my last weighin next sat so i can get my april goal - i'll be gutted...

Sorry to hear you've been ill Kay, hope you're feeling better now? Maintain for me this week :(

still 16.12. had a maintain this week :/ bit gutted about it really but i've been v ill this week and on painkillers, going to do an SP week starting today and go from there!

3lb off this week, that's more like it! i think i figured out that bread was bloating me / making me retain weight. so i'm going to do a bread-free week this week and see how i get on :) (i had 2 bread-y things this week and still lost the 3lb but i do feel bloated from them... so going to give...

lost 3lb this week! much happier with that than last week's loss :)

joining this thread! weighed in this week at 16.12 (-3lbs) so i'm delighted to be in the next bracket down. hello :)))

weighed in today, lost 3lbs so i'm now 16.12, so i will be saying goodbye to this thread but look forward to seeing you all in the 16s soon :)

Week 8: 3lb off for me this week, much happier with that! i think i figured out that bread is bad for me (it bloats me massively) - the week i lost 1.5lb i had bread 5 days out of 7; this week i had bread 1 day out of 7, and the week before (-3.5lb) i had bread 2 days out of 7. so less bread for...

3lb off for me this week, much happier with that!

Lost another 1.5, I was initially disappointed but I'm coming round to it a bit now. Determined to get a bigger loss this week! I've got goals i want to meet!

Week 7: -1.5lbs My lowest loss so far. I'm not overly happy, although it takes me to 1 stone and a half exactly. I was on plan all week and within my daily syns each day; what I have realised is that I relied on bread a lot for my hexB, and I had more starchy carbs than the previous week (lots...

17. 1 now... one more week hopefully til the 16s. Feeling determined!

1.5lbs off for me this week - I'm not totally happy with that but at least it was still a loss

-1.5 off for me this week - I'm obviously glad it was a loss but it wasn't what I wanted. That's my lowest loss to date, even on the week where I went away for a few days :/ Going to try and reduce my starchy foods next week.

It's weigh day tomorrow and I think I might be getting a gain or STS :/ I've been on plan all week, always within my daily syns, altho I've used them more consistently than usual (I get 20 and I've used between 8-16.5 a day) and even did an SP day but it's not shown on my scales at home...

Monday Breakfast - hexB bread for bacon and mushroom sandwiches, special k chocolate delight bar (4.5) Soya americano lunch - cherry tomatoes, melon medley pot Dinner - itsu sushi box (guessing 10 syns) Dessert - strawberries with choc shot (2) Total - 16.5 syns :)

Week 6: -3.5lbs absolutely chuffed with that! it's been a difficult week as i've had a huge exam to work towards, so i've basically been eating on the go, no preparation, and pretty much living off subway salads for lunch (which is not ideal for me - i love them, but i want to get back into...

weighed in today - that's -3.5lbs for me :D :D :D

-3.5lbs this week! chuffed - i felt like it was a loss, but i wasn't sure how big a loss it would be as i have been working super hard all week for an exam. so i'd been eating well, but i'd had a few days and nights of eating on the go - subway salads for lunch, takeaway sushi for dinner etc...

3.5lbs down so i'm now 17 2.5 - hoping to be in the 16s by next week! although that's asking for another 3lb... but if not i'll be there in 2 weeks :)

Weds: Breakfast - 3 slices wholemeal no crusts bread (hexb) with marmite Snacks Soya americano (part hexa) Melon medley pot Chicken tikka breast pieces (0.5 syns) Soya americano (part hexa) Late lunch Subway double chicken salad, ranch dressing (2 syns) Tea with soya milk (part hexa) Itsu...

here to follow :)

i get them from a coffee shop - i wish i had a coffee machine! it's an expensive habit but my coffee shop knows me so well that i frequently get free coffee which helps! i used to be addicted to lattes too, i subbed them out for americanos so i still get my caffeine fix on the go :) i actually...

i'd love to join in on this! my weigh day is saturday :) 13 weigh ins... i think i'd like to set a 26lb target (which would take me to 3st lost overall, which is also my interim target!)

3lb off this week! Chuffed to bits, I got my stone award and slimmer of the month

3lb off this week so I am now 17.6! Getting closer to getting out of the 17s, hopefully I'll be in the 16s in 4 weeks :) that's my new goal!

3lb loss for me this week, which makes a March total of 10.5 lbs lost - meaning I just hit my March goal and I also won slimmer of the month in my group! Well chuffed with that

Week 1 -5.5 lbs Week 2 -3lb Week 3 -2lb Week 4 -2.5lb Week 5 -3lb Got my stone award and slimmer of the month with my 3 lb loss today!! I'm up to 16lbs lost now :)

Thurs: Breakfast - marmite on toast (hexB) Had breakfast really early for me so then had a pot of kiwi, strawberry and melon, and a banana mid-morning along with an americano with soya milk. Lunch: subway double chicken salad (2 syns for ranch dressing) Late afternoon - got the munchies and...

My dinners tend to be meat and carbs. Examples: - burger without bun, with bacon and salad and veggies - chicken fried rice - curry and rice - pasta with tuna or chicken and veggies in the homemade sauce Tonight I'm making chilli with rice and prob a side salad. For sweet things - it depends...

I find I tend to weigh 1-2 kilo more on SW scales than I do at home too, but I think for me it's just that my scales are old (at least 10 years!!!) and definitely a bit dodge, if you weigh multiple times in a row on mine it tends to vary... 1 st 9 since Feb 15th is amazing - I say keep doing...

Me please! I think I would like to go for 8.5lb in the month, I set 10 lb last month and I'm worried I might not make it :(

Weds Breakfast 2 x wholemeal bread toasted with marmite Coffee with soya milk (part hexA) Banana Snacks Melon medley pot Special k belgian chocolate bar - 3.5 syns Americano with soya (part hexa) Late lunch Packet of chicken tikka slices - 0.5 syns Salad bowl (without dressing or cheese)...

so this will hopefully be a dilemma i face soon, currently i'm still comfortably within most of my wardrobe, but as the weight drops i will need new clothes. what are you planning to do/what did you do about new clothes as you lost weight? i've picked up a few bargains on ebay, mostly...

Tuesday - breakfast - 2 x wholemeal bread toasted (hexB) with 2 rashers of bacon (fat cut off) and mushrooms fried in frylight. I stirred some philly light through the mushrooms just before serving so they were creamy, and piled it all on the bread :) YUM with a coffee with dash of soy milk...

Hello :) I'm aiming to go from a 45 bmi to 25 (aiming for 8st 3lb weight loss to do that, though I recognise I may want to adjust my target as I lose weight and gain perspective!). I'm 27 and have lost small amounts of weight before through calorie counting and exercise. It's never been...

Well done, you look amazing! ! We have a similar SW, I hope I can do as well as you :)

5.5 lb in my first week, tbh i had hoped for more because of my high SW (and I know the more weight to lose, the bigger the first week normally) but I can't really complain, it's kept coming off since :)

thanks guys :))) my losses have been pretty consistent, i tend to eat most of my syns (20 per day because of my SW, i eat between 10-20 typically) and i've also managed to build in a few special events/meals out so they could have been bigger, but any loss is a loss! week 1 -5.5lb week 2 -3lb...

I go to group. I really like my leader & group, and to me it does make a huge difference - it helps me to emphasise that it's a lifestyle change, not a diet. I get tips and advice from my group, they're lovely and friendly, and it's really nice to know there are people genuinely rooting for...

So this is from week 4 onwards - I was logging everything I ate before with the paper logs but now I'm out of those this seems like a good idea :) Breakfast - melon & grape pot, sainsburys Post-weigh in breakfast - 2 slices of wholemeal bread (400g loaf) hexb, with marmite, water Lunch -...

2.5 off this week! Pleased as that is even with a indian meal out where I ordered and ate what I wanted :)

2.5 off for me today :) So aiming for another 2.5 off next week to meet my march goal!

2.5 off so now 17st 9 :)

Well done everyone on losses! I'm weighing in tomorrow and fearing a gain. Not sure why because I've eaten on plan (apart from one meal out, but that's definitely within my weekly syns). Just fearing it :(

i have a similar ish loss and goal (10.5lb down in 3 weeks, need to lose about 7.5 more stone) and what's helping me is breaking it down into much smaller goals. i'm trying to work towards each award (so this week i really want to have a good week so i can get to my stone award), and i have a...

2 tesco finest steak burgers, lettuce bed, corn on the cob, sw chips, mushrooms, onions, bacon :) absolutely yummy and i wasn't at all bothered by lack of bread/bun - it was actually tastier without bread :D

i started off using syns on snacks, like chocolate cereal bars, and keeping meals synfree. the interesting thing though is before SW i didn't really crave chocolate. now i'm at about the 3-4 week mark i'm settling on using some syns in meals (example, tonight i had 6 syns on steak burgers, so...

if i'm not too late to join in, i'd like to join the challenge :) i've had 2 weigh ins so far this month and lost 5lbs in them. i want to lose another 5lbs in my next 2 weigh ins, so can you put me down for a total of 10lbs in march? (first weigh in was -3lb, 2nd weigh in was -2lb).

this is such a good tool - thanks so much! i don't know if anyone can help, but some of the values on my dashboard aren't showing (current bmi, current award, lbs to go under each target) - not sure if i've done something to mess up the code! any help gratefully received :)

i've only lost 10.5lbs so far (out of near on 100 to lose) but I can definitely feel the difference when I'm walking - I feel lighter on my feet and walking is noticeably more comfortable, and more enjoyable, which is a very pleasing NSV :) Also after a 3 day trip away where I ate terribly...

2lbs off yday - really pleased with that as I had a horrendous week foodwise (was away on work trip for 3 days, had to eat what was served for breakfast/lunch/dinner - none of it SW friendly or what I would normally eat, and by day 2 I gave up restraint and ate what I wanted including cake and...

2lbs off so I'm 17st 11.5 lbs :) which i'm pleased with as I was expecting to gain tbh and move back into the 18s - phew! feeling more comfortable now i'm not on the brink of the 18s :D

Just entered the 17s at weigh in today - 17 13.5! Glad to be out of the 18s :)

Hi all, newbie here. Usually weigh on a Saturday but had to weigh today as going away this weekend. 3 lbs off since my weigh in on Saturday! Happy chappy - it's been more of a combo of being ill / stressed than anything this week - I've been too busy with work to realise I've been hungry, so...
