I know you have said that you don’t like weight watchers but they have launched a new program today. There is actually 3 different plans you can choose from, a couple of which are similar to SW - maybe worth another look?

Good luck - have a great holiday

I just wanted to thank you both. ‘Confessing’ to my binge eating problems & knowing that I am not alone with my erratic eating must have really struck a cord with me! I joined weight watchers just after having this discussion on here & I am 16lb down in 7 weeks but more importantly I have not...

I am aiming for 3 stone so similar to you - 16 down 26 to go.

Let me know how you get on. Enjoy your holiday ☀️

I am an online member. Being successful for a change - lost 16lb in 7 weeks. Only a week until my holidays so that is keeping me motivated.

Definitely recommend it. I have done sw online before & thought it rubbish although I do like the diet. WW app is all you need to follow the diet from home. Think I pay about £10 a month

The free calculator I presume will be the same as the ww one. The app has a huge database that has been inputted by ww therefore taking into consideration all the ‘zero heroes’ such as chicken, fish, veggies etc. The calculator just see’s a calorie as a calorie if that makes sense!

It’s because the calculator doesn’t take into consideration the free food element. Just shout if you need anything else - happy to help 😊

I would seriously look at joining online only, there is usually some good offers on & the app is fantastic. You definitely don’t need to join a group once you have the app it is very easy.

Just checked online for you - it’s 5.

Hi Dolly I have been a member of mini’s for years & years but never post, however I didn’t want to read & run. Just wanted to say that you are not alone with your binging - I have an absolutely terrible relationship with food & definitely lose control around it. I can go a couple of weeks at...

Started yesterday & all went well. Hope today will be just as good. First day back at work after nearly 2 weeks off so just be a busy one & go really quickly 🤞

I have already had a change of plan! After reading lots of diaries on here I have opted to give Exante a try. I will be trying to stick to total solution but may have a few man plan days too. Ordered yesterday, arrived today so will start tomorrow.

I have lost count of how many diaries I have started on here & abandoned after only a few days because I have fallen off the wagon. After a very busy year working a lot of extra hours & being lucky enough to enjoy several nice holidays with the extra money, I now need to focus on me & getting...

Had a good week & scales are showing a 3 pound loss this morning :)

So a rubbish couple of days which I knew were coming. Had son's 21st yesterday & a big family meal in a nice restaurant. Signed up to weight watchers online so no excuses now. Aiming for 10 pounds at least for Christmas. Feeling so ready to start today (just hope this lasts!)

Weekend also went well. Thinking of food already this morning! It's my sons 21st on Wednesday & my mum had him a fab cake made which we cut yesterday as all the family goes to mums on a Sunday. I have now got half a gorgeous cake in the kitchen & it's shouting me already. I need to be strong...

So yesterday was also a successful day finished on 1135 calories. Strangely I find the weekend easier so I am hopeful that today & tomorrow will also be on plan.

Thanks for your advice & support. So I managed a full day on plan yesterday - finished on 1166 calories & I also did a 45 minute aqua fit class. Let's turn 1 day on plan into 2. I can do this!

My son doesn't like white sauce so I always use cheese sauce when I make lasagna. I prefer it now.

So I am back bigger than ever :( I could kick myself, I was doing so well & then I gave up for food that makes me feel rubbish, lethargic & gives me indegestion - why??? I start my plan again nearly every morning & give up by lunchtime but today will be different, I will stick to my eating...

Hi Chucklebug You are doing really well. I keep making good starts then losing the plot! Really want to lose 2 1/2 to 3 stone by next July. I have a box full of slimfast products but can't find the motivation to use it! Do you think I could just use 2 meal replacement bars a day or do you...

Sounds like a good food day today

Hope you get good news regarding the job

Thank you all for your kind welcome! Food today was:- Breakfast - sultana bran Lunch - chicken sandwich, alpen light bar & a pear Dinner - homemade chicken kebab & weight watchers toffee ice cream pot

Title says it all really! Next July I will be 40 & will be at goal. I have had my 4th weigh in today & have lost 8 1/2 pounds so far - 1 stone 12 1/2 to go & maybe another 7 pounds after that depending on how I feel. Decided to start a diary so I can get some support & also because I find...

I got diet chef cheap from groupon - got to say I am loving it. Don't think it's worth the full price but good when you get a deal. Breakfast, lunch & snacks are fab, dinners can be a bit hit or miss. I calorie count & use diet chef meals as & when - don't think I could eat them everyday. I...

Today's calories 1195/1200 Breakfast - granola & banana Lunch - tomato soup, apple & oat biscuits Dinner - chilli & rice, chocolate mousse Exercise - 45 minutes deep water class The class I do today is my absolute favourite! So look forward to it but can't do it properly for laughing. It...

Weigh in this morning 1 1/2 down (7 in total). Really pleased :). I have always been a slow loser so anything in the right direction is good!

I have been a lurker on this site for years but rarely posted. Can't believe how quiet it is! Decided to start posting my diary & hopefully receive some support & also give some motivation to others. Done loads of diets before but never actually done old fashioned calorie counting & exercise...

Yesterday went exactly to plan for a change lol. Today I am back at work :-(. I have had 3 days off & we went to the seaside with the dogs for the long weekend. In one way I will be so busy I will not have time to think about food but I love being home with my fur babies - I need to win the...

Well done on your weight loss so far I am sure you will get to your goal. I am the total opposite to you bed at 10 most nights & up with the lark!

I hope I can keep plodding along & lose as much as you. Well done on your loss so far.

Well done on your losses so far. I don't do much exercise only walking the dogs a couple of times a day. I admire anyone who exercises for fun lol.

Well done on your weight loss

Just wanted to say hello & that you are doing really good. I don't drink enough water either but drink more than enough coffee. My OH keeps telling me I drink too much but it is my only vice & I enjoy it so why not!

Just wanted to say hello & introduce myself. I have been a lurker for ages on minis but have decided to share the last leg of my journey with you all. I started out at New year weighing 13 stone 13 3/4 determined not to go into the 14's - today I weigh 11 stone 4 3/4. I have had about 6 weeks...

Day 2, back to work. I found today really easy as I was mega busy and didn't even get my lunch hour. I managed to drink my shake while working but it was 2.30 before I had chance to drink that. My food for today:- Breakfast - Slimfast bar Lunch - Strawberry shake & a banana Tea - GFY Cottage...

Good luck reaching your goals

Good luck with your goal.

I thought I would start my own diary then hopefully in the future people can see that dieting the Slimfast way can be sucessful. Well I have made it to teatime on day 1 easily enough (better than I expected). My food for the day looks like this:- Brekkie - Banana shake Lunch - Strawberry...

I am going to go for 10lbs. Loser85 - 14lbs Purplehugs - 14lbs Fattymcbigbum - 20lbs Be Positive - 10lbs

Hi my name is Julia, I am always on a diet but never seem to weigh any less. I have decided that by the summer I will be at goal & stay there. After trying a few diet options I have decided that Slimfast is for me & will be starting tomorrow. I have more determined than ever that this will...

Hi Everyone Thought I would check in with you all - I have made it to day 4 without cheating or more importantly even wanting to cheat. At the end of day 1 I started with a niggling head and woke up on day 2 with the worse headache ever which lasted all day and I felt very lifeless but when I...

Hi Everyone Thank you for your kind welcomes - my packs arrived today so we have lift off for tomorrow. I am excited but kind of nervous as well.

I have ordered 5 promotional packs today and am hoping they arrive tomorrow so I can start Wednesday. I have been following all your progress for the past few weeks whilst trying to decide what diet to follow. I would like to say well done to all of you, everyone seems to be doing so good. :D...

Hi all I was just wondering if any of you have used the diet plate to loose your weight. I have one but have never heard anyone using it before and wondered if it really worked or was just a gimmick.

Hi everyone I am really focused to start my diet tomorrow - think it might have been the nice weather that finally has me focused (be trying since New Year). Anyway my question is, I have a diet plate and wondered if anyone had used this method before and had been successful with it or should I...

Hi everyone - started slimfast today and so far so good. I love all the milkshake flavours and bars but not too keen on the smoothies. As anyone on here lost a significant amount of weight on slimfast? I weigh in next Monday and will let you know how I do - hoping to see a good loss to keep...

Can I join in too please?? I have just started slimfast today and would like to lose 7lb by the end of Feb. I weigh in on Monday mornings.

Hi Lizzie - Thanks for taking an interest. Yesterday didn't go aswell as I hoped it would but then it didn't go too badly either. I didn't really have any proper meals but ate bits all day even though they were quite heathly snacks. So far today on the other hand has been fab and I have...

Hi I just wanted to say that I have just joined this forum and one of the reasons was that your diary really inspired me. I too am hoping to lose weight but want to change my habits in order to be healthy rather than try to lose weight as quick as possible.

Hi Everyone I am new to this forum but definately not to dieting. I am hoping that by keeping a diary for everyone to read that it will keep me on track. A bit of history about me - I was never thin nor fat growing up and never entertained dieting until 2001 - looking back now that was the...
