Skinny cow ice cream sandwich....just had one, 5 syns and yummy, also half price in Tesco at the mo!

I used Tesco....it's what I had in! Next time I make it I'd half the recipe though as it's very filling!

Well done, thats fantastic!

Yippeeeeeeeeee! I lost 7lb

It's lovely! No eggy taste because the cocoa powder is so strong. I've only have 1/4 and I'm stuffed....thanks for rescuing me, you are all so wonderful!

Cake is in the oven! Thanks

Whoooops I ment 9....still have 11 left to use today, the oven is on!

Oh my......that cake looks amazing, is it really only 4 syns? Can I overdose on eggs if I eat the whole thing? I've already had 2 today!

Typical...week 1, weigh in tomorrow and I get my time of the month today, a whole week early! (Now I know why I was such a stroppy cow on Saturday!) I wasn't ready for this craving yet so don't have anything suitable in. I really don't want to eat any chocolate because I know I won't be able...

If the dish has 6 syns in it and you eat 2 thirds then why not count 4 syns on one day and 2 the day you eat the left overs?

Will be my first weigh in tomorrow......scared!

I best join this thread....I'm a Wednesday weigher! Week 1 for me and I'm so scared about Wednesday already!

......also it's only 2 healthy extras a day, 1 x a and 1 x b.

Got my first weigh in on Wednesday.....don't care what I loose just so long as it goes down!

I started slimming world on Thursday and have so far been following the Green plan (I eat very little meat so thought this would be best). I got a little confused with the food diary and thought I should be eating 2/3 super free foods. Only just realised my mistake today! :o On...

Hello all:wave_cry:. Sorry I've been a useless lump the last few weeks:break_diet:. I had a re-start on Monday, I will stick to it, I will lose 2 more stone before my holiday (7 weeks to go!). I'm sure you've replaced me by now but wanted to let you all know that I hadn't quite fallen off...

I'm still here.....don't replace me! I missed out on my weigh in this week as I went to the Ofsted conference for Outstanding Providers! Fingers crossed I lose next Wednesday.....the food at the conference was lush! hehehe

I've lost 9lb this week :eek::eek:

I'm still here! I'm having a fabulous week....been weighing on my own scales. (Bad I know) I'm hoping for a good one!

I tried the berry one first and didn't like it. My CDC had some tubs of orange that go out of date in April so she gave me one to try at a bargain price! I'll be needing a new tub by next week at this rate!

I'm addicted to the orange water flavouring! I drank 4 litres yesterday because of it and even had to get up in the night to wee! hehehehe! It's so yummy. I also mixed a little of it in with a vanilla packet and made a mix-a-mousse. Was heavenly! I'm back on 100% Yippeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...

I gained 2lb this week and a huge 2 and a half inches on my waist.....I'm really bloated! Hey ho, hopefully it will fall off this week.

I've had to go to the doctors today as I was in so much pain. She thinks I've got gallstones. Bloods taken, scan booked for next week, strong pain killers. She said I should be ok to continue with the diet and take a painkiller with my shake. I can't even face the shakes though so ended up...

Well my weekend was ok, I was fairly good with all that was going on. Then last night I got a tummy bug that my darling daughter kindly shared with me! I looked about 9 months pregnant and had the most awful stomach cramps. I couldn't face a shake today so after sipping water I managed a piece...

I'm doing great, back on track after Sunday's little blip! :D I seem to be going though one of those weeing for England stages at the moment though, sure all the running up and down stairs is doing me good though! :o I've got another hectic weekend planned, we're going to friends for a meal...

Yippeeeeeeeeeee another 3lb gone!

I've been soooooooooo naughty! :o Saturday was my son's birthday party and in the evening we had a 40th to go to. I was really good all day. Was so proud of myself. Then......yesterday I ate for England. I had mega PMT, was tired and really grumpy so I ate, ate, ate, and ate. :break_diet...

WOW vanilla + coffee = heaven.........and I don't like coffee!

I'm just going to go and try half a vanilla pack with a black coffee, sounds lush! I often do hot choc/choc orange/choc mint and do it in 2 halfs, I don't have any huge mugs!

I can't stand the tetras, they taste like chemicals to me! I've tried all 3 flavours and urged my way though the chocolate one! Good job we're all different hey!

:eek:OMG I never even considered it might knock me out of ketosis.

Thats great, I was 16st 3lb this week so fingers crossed I'll see a 15 at next weeks weigh in, it's so exciting!

I've lost 3 dress sizes already (31lb loss now in 7 weeks). I was wearing a size 24 (jeans and tops) but now an 18 and today I bought a couple of new hoodies in an 18. Took a bit longer to get the tops down to an 18 but I'm there. I do have a rather large chest but I'm back in my 36H bras...

I've lost another 3lb this week. Oh I love this diet!

I've had 1 litre of water so far today. My scales have been stuck since last Wednesday even though I've been 100%. I'm going to up my water today to see if I can get the scales to move (downwards!)

Sorry to hear your news Lena. My scales seem to be stuck at the moment. I'm doing 100% but haven't lost a single lb this week yet. I'm going to up my water today to see if it will help flush me out, I feel quite bloated. It's nearly Wednesday weigh day again......I have to loose something!

My results for this week are 2.54

Yayyyyyy I hit my Easter target the day after Pancake day! :p 28lb gone now, guess my target was a little low! I now set a new target of another 14lb by easter!

Yayyyyyyyyyyy I lost 6lb!

Well it's weigh day for me today. I have a positive feeling after last weeks birthday gain! My engagement ring is too big now, slipped off my finger yesterday. I don't want to get it re-sized until I've lost loads more weight. I don't want to stop wearing it, only had it since Christmas day...

I so want to eat a pancake! I've just made pancakes for 6 children, another one has just arrived home and is eating his. I have my sister and neice coming in a minute for theirs, then my 2 daughters will want some after brownies. I wonder how many carbs are in a pancake?

Don't panic about the 1.5lb gain. It's only fluid and NOT fat therefore it will fall off so long as you get back on track 100%. I gained 3lb after my birthday weekend and even though my weigh in isn't until Wednesday it's fallen off plus a bit more (I'm naughty and weigh every morning at...

I gained 3lb this week so went from 233lb to 236lb, hope you don't have to include my results!

Bolt is good isn't it. Wasn't in 3D near us though, nothing ever is, Devon is so far behind! Don't stress about the Nachos and diet coke, it's happened now, move on. I've started having the odd can of coke, I was addicted before I started this diet, used to drink about 6/8 cans a day. My...

I ate pizza, pasta, huge fried breakfast, pastrys, cereals, a sausage baggette, chicken korma and rice, chocolate birthday cake, plus a load of other junk! I think I went on a carb over load! I'm surprised I only gained 3lb!

I'm back in ketosis now after my weekend off and haven't suffered any of the hungry feelings that I had the first time.

Well I gained 3lb this week, I lost some inches though so it's just fluid. Will all be gone and more by next week! I'm studying for an Early Years degree. I just don't have the time to put to it with working full time as a childminder and looking after my own 4 children. I'll get there though!

Well it's my weigh day today! I know I've gained, probably about 5lb, but it's not going to be the end of the world. I'm back on SS 100% so what ever goes on today will all fall off again by next Wednesday, plus a bit more hopefully. I finished my second TMA for my Open University course...

Hello everyone......sorry for my absence over the weekend. My darling partner took me away for my birthday/valentines day! I've eaten like a horse! Whoooooops. I think I've probably put on about 5lb this week so I'm back on track 100% SS this morning to try and amend any damage and get...

I'm a childminder so I spend a lot of time running around after children, I also have 4 of my own! Can have up to 11 children here so it's all go go go. I don't do any formal exercise as such, the odd half hour on the Wii Fit is a far as it goes. I drank 4 litres of water a day in week 4...

I'm SS, however on Friday and Sunday I was starving so I did SS+. I only had some Quorn with a tiny bit of cabbage and some brocolli and cheese soup (CD one) stired in. I still can't believe it. I've lost just over 18" now and dropped 3 sizes in jeans already. When I put my 18 jeans on this...

Well it was my week 4 weigh in today and I lost 8lb...........:eek: I was so hungry over the weekend that I had to step up to SS+ on Friday and Sunday evenings. I cooked some quorn and added a small amount of frozen cabbage and mixed in some brocolli and cheese soup from the CD packet...

Well I've lost another 8lb this week! I've doen done 25lb towards my 28lb target and we aren't half way yet! Fingers crossed I hit target by pancake day, then I'll set another one!

Well well well I'm still in shock........I lost 8lb this week! Woohooooooooooooooooo for Cambridge!

Oh I love H........... It's my weigh day today....I'm so excited! As for losing weight before you get pregnant then I recommend it fully. I lost 3 stone before getting pregant for the first time, it was so much more exciting being a pregnant size 14. People knew I was pregnant and not just...

I'm going out for a meal for my birthday this friday. I'm planning to have a steak/chicken and salad. I'm really looking forward to it.

Yayyyyyy I've done my 4 litres today.....wasn't too bad either!

I nibbled a grain of rice the other day to see if it was cooked, I spat it out it out in the bin! If you feel hungry try drinking a large glass of water, always good to have an extra glass! The only times I feel hungry is when I'm bored, therefore I'm not actually hungry. I've done so much...

:)Well done thats fantastic

I've had a good day today. Had just over 2 litres of water already! I've kind of got myself into a good routine now. I have half a bar for breakfast, a soup or shake for lunch then half a bar in the afternoon followed by a soup in the evening. Then plenty of water all day long.

Last week I was 247lb I lost 6lb making me 241lb now. :)

Can someone tell me how much Quorn I can have for a SS+ meal please. I can't put my hand on my book to check. Many thanks.

The childminding children LOVE the trampoline. I have a strict one at a time rule for them. When they have gone home my own children go wild on it!

Thought I'd give you all a laugh.....kind of like a before video instead of a before photo! (This was filmed today though and I've lost 17lb so far!) Now before you click make sure you don't have any shake or bar in your mouth otherwise you may have to lick it off your computer screen (mustn't...

Welcome to new members, Lena why do you be team leader? I've just done my exercise for the day by bouncing on the snow cover trampoline, was fab!

Well done, thats fantastic new x

I'm in East Devon and we had loads of snow over night last night. It's great, I've even been down my mums garden on the sledge with the children!

Thanks, you're a star!

I'd be interested in your size 18 jeans Kelly. I'd put them to good use then pass them on when I've shrunk!

How come we're 2 members down now, who else has dissapeared?

Wow, amazing loss, well done.

Hello, I'm sending out a request! My clothes are getting too big! I started off in a 24 and some bits in a 22, now my 22 things are starting to looking a little odd. Does anyone have anything in an 18/20 they'd like to get rid of? I'll pay all the postage. In a couple of weeks I'll advertise...

I lost 6lb this week (week 3) and it was my first week with bars. I had 1 a day. They don't slow everyone down!

Well I've completed week 3 and lost another 6lb. :D This makes my weight loss 17lb over the last 3 weeks. I had bars this week and was quite worried because I've read so many reports about them slowing up your weight loss. I've been having 1 a day for the last 7 days. I guess I'm one of the...

Well I lost another 6lb this week! Thats 17lb towards my 28lb target now. I'm so chuffed. Blush....go find a new CDC, yours sounds like a nightmare. I'm a childminder (wonder if you live in my area, I have a space and would love a baby!). Make sure you visit a few. They must have their...

Week 3 weigh in and I'm LOST 6lb thats a total of 17lb now :D:D:D:D:D:D I'm a little happy!

Everything I crave for I make for the kids. I've made them Spag bol for tea, the smell is heavenly, enough to satisfy my craving!

My next weigh in is tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to it. I'm struggling to keep my jeans up, may have to dig a belt out! All a god sign I hope!

And I have none, it can be rather boring living in Devon at times. We're ment to be having a snow fall this afternoon but it's blazing sunshine now. I've even turned the heating off as it's so warm, I might even hang some washing out!

Hello everyone. I've been really good all weekend. Chilly day down here in Devon, only a couple of flakes of snow though, and I mean a couple, blink and you'd miss them!

I pay £35 if I have all shakes/soups. If i add 7 bars and 14 shakes/soups I pay £37.

Oh dear it seems things are going a little pear shaped for some of you. I've had a really good week so far, I did have a small meal on friday night of chicken, brocolli and cauliflower, I'm hoping for a really good loss this week......my own scales are looking hopeful!

Last week I lost 8lb This week I lost 3lb

My percentage is 1.2% this week.

WOW, I've just made my first muffin, choc mint.......it's heaven. Does cooking the packs effect weight loss?

I have been adding my results to the Childminding WII fitters........i'm the one at the bottom! I'll soon shock them when I jump to the top!

I've had a lush fruits of the forest shake and 1 litre of water so far today. I do get up at 6am to start work at 6.30am, I'm a childminder! I've also had a couple of slithers of a toffee bar from the freezer, yum yum yum. Mindee watching Balamory now, we're waiting for my CDC to come as...

My CDC told me not to exercise on SS, at the time I kind of laughed at the thought of me doing any formal exercise. BUT, yesterday I spent 10 minutes on the wii fit board and felt great. Tonight I thought I'd do another 10 minutes and ended up doing 35 minutes, I got carried away (take note...

I've suffered with this all my life and I was a skinny little thing in my early teens (what went wrong??!). I find exfoliating 2/3 times a week helps loads. You shouldn't do it every day. I use any of the body shop body scrubs in the shower. They have gritty bits in, I just use it with my...

I tried the porridge last week.....it wasn't for me! I did manage to eat one, then the second one ended up in the bin!

Yesterday I called into Tesco (normally shop online). I only needed a few bits and bobs for the children. I was really really good and only got those bits, no extras and was really shocked at how cheap my small shop was!:D In the past I would have filled my trolley with alsorts of treats and...

I have trained the children to empty their leftovers straight into the bin so I don't even have to look at them! They even stack their plates etc into the dishwasher now. My youngest is only 4 and perfectly capable of doing these too simple jobs. I was a terrible left over picker. To the...

I've lost another 3lb this week, thats 11 now so only 17lb to hit my first target!

Well well well I lost 3lb............woohoooooooo Thats 11lb in 2 weeks, I'm so chuffed.

Good evening all. Well where has the last week gone? It's zoomed by! It's weigh in day for me again tomorrow and it's going to be a bad one after my disaster of a weekend. I really think I've put on. On sunday I only managed 1 shake and a tonne of water. On monday I managed 3 shakes and...

Well done lena, thats great. I'm afraid I didn't stick to the vodka as planned in fact the only vodka I had was the shots along with the baileys and sambuka! I ended up drinking wine all evening as a friend on our table kept buying bottles for us all (he's loaded!). Would have been rude not to...

Well I'm back from The Ball. It was wonderful. I'm afraid I wasn't a good girl though. I ate and drank and ate a bit more and drank again and even ate some more then drank and drank and drank.:drunk: :jelous:I think I drank a little too much as I was rather poorly :sign0137: when we got back...

Does anyone know if it's ok to take Ranitidine tablets for heatburn whilst on SS. They can be brought over the couter so aren't prescription meds. I've had awful heartburn for 48 hours now and last night I only managed 1/2 a shake because I felt so ill:jelous:. I didn't hardly sleep at all...

WOW well done on the 15.6lb thats amazing. Guess the pasta didn't do any harm after all. Probably best not to try it again though!

CD W8 warrior princesses........fantastic name! I'm doing a degree too in Early Years. I'm doing mine though the Open University. It's tough going what with working full time and being a single mum of 4 darlings. I've got an assignment due in on the 13th Feb (my birthday) and I haven't even...

I've not tried the bars yet as I'm only on week 2. I'm not sure about them, have a feeling once I start chewing I won't want to stop! I'm having leek and potato soup for lunch, I've put some pepper on it and it's so yummy.

I'm on week 2 now and have a similar amount to you to lose. I'm a little shorter that you so I guess I should lose a bit more! Are you weighing in with your CDC weekly? I had my first weigh in yesterday and lost 8lb. My CDC also measures me and in the first week I lost 2" from my bust, 2"...

Morning all. Well I don't think I drunk enough yesterday. I went shopping so didn't want to be rushing to the loo every 10 minutes! I've got a bit of a headache today, need to hit the 3 litres today. I'm really looking forward to the Ball I'm going to on saturday, tried my dress on again...

Well done Yummy Mummy thats fantastic. I made the kids rice pudding for after their tea. I wasn't sure the rice was soft so I nibbled 1 grain then spat it in to the bin! Don't worry about the pasta slip up, will do you maore harm if you stress over it.

Well I've lost 8lb this week, well on my way to the 28lb by Good Friday.......maybe I've set my target too low?

I'm happy with W8 Warrior princesses :D My CDC measures me all over. This week I lost 2" waist 2" bust 1" chest 2" hips 1" thigh 0.5 arm She said it was excellent that I was losing from my arm and thigh in the first week. Means I'm losing fat! :8855: I'm so excited today. I've been...

Week 1 weigh in..............8lb yippeeeeeeeee woohooooooooooo yayyyyyyyyyy Plus I've lost 8 and a half inches

No, I've not had any of the water flavourings. I've not had any new falvour today either.

I'm on day 6 of SS and this evening my skin is so itchy all over. I've showered, mositurised, but all I want to do is scratch. Has anyone else had this, I've never felt like this before. :confused::confused::cry::cry:

Ewwwwww I had vodka and diet coke, love vodka though so think I'll have it with soda. Soda is just fizzy water if it comes off the pump isn't it?

I'm in, I'd like to lose 28lb by Good Friday. Not sure if that is a daft target or not!

My ketostixs are out of date, I've ordered some more so I'm just guessing I'm in ketosis at the moment! Today has gone good, I didn't have any children to look after during school hours so I did some house work then went to a mates for a gossip afternoon! She is doing slimming world and is...

Oh exciting to have a full team. So long as you are happy to be team leader Yummy Mummy then I'm happy. I don't know wether to be nervous or excited about tomorrow, although I've stuck to SS 100% I'm convinced I'm not going to lose anything.

I just had a hot chocolate mint, only half a pack so I can have another one in a bit. I feel like a hamster at the moment. I have a water bottle with a sports top and keep holding it up to my mouth letting the water drip in! I will get all this water down!

I'd like a challenge too.............any ideas?

Lucy skips in steals the trophy and skips out again! Well maybe she doesn't skip yet as she hasn't lost enough weight!

I've just done the childrens lunchboxes and breakfast (I have 4 children of my own plus breakfast for 4 childminding children). This mornings breakfast menu was toast with fried eggs. I've managed to cook all 8 but the smell is making me feel so sick. Was the same last night when my own...

Good morning. Sounds like you had a really lovely weekend. I'm off to a Ball this saturday. I didn't really wan't to eat during my 2nd week of SS but if I put of starting the diet I'd have used every little event to delay things. Got my first weigh in tomorrow, don't know whether to be nervous...

Well it's day 6 for me, still going grand. I've taken to watching telly in my bedroom in the evening, it's 2 floors away from the kitchen then! I take a litre of water with me and nothing else. I have a lounge area in my bedroom with a sofa etc, I've never really used it much before and it's so...

Thanks for posting this chart. It's great, can't wait to put my week 1 loss in!

I'm very excited, just can't wait until Wednesday! Thank goodness I'm weighing at 9.15am, wouldn't be able to wait all day! My CDC is a short walk away from me so I'll be hot footing it to her's after the school run!

Hello my dear, I'm on day 5 now and I'm loving it! hehehehe Thanks for adding me as a friend, I don't feel so much like a loner now!

Hello I'm on day 5 and been 100%, please may I join?

Yesterday

What do you do for work?

resting Yayy got 20 post now I can have a pic!

Petal

I'm not keen on having the shakes too thick so I make them up to a pint, makes them last longer that way too!

:rolleyes:I'm very confused about how much i should be drinking. I keep reading all different amounts! I'm on day 5 of SS now. I never used to drink very much at all and I'm prone to water retention. I'm only 5ft2 and weigh 18st 6lb (not sure if size makes a difference to water intake)...

Tarty

:lilkiss:Roses

Put the slip up to one side and get back with it. You can do it, have a great day today to make yourself feel all positive again. x

I have suffered with cramp regularly since I was a teenager. I have been on quinnie tablets from the doctor in the past and they were fantastic. I'm on day 5 now and I'm getting more cramps than ever, in my jaw, neck, diaphram, legs, feet, in fact pretty much everywhere. The jaw and diaphram...

It does feel easier. I'm on day 5 and haven't been tempted to nibble at all. I'm actually really enjoying it and I'm not missing food at all. I threw half a bag of doritos in the bin this morning. Not sure why there was a half bag as I normally would have eatten the whole lot (and thats the...

Hello Irene, I don't weigh in until Wednesday and I'm on week 1. Right a team name ladies, how about we all put some ideas forwards. ermmmmmmm we're team 21 so how about something to do with keys seeing as thats a traditional 21st birthday gift. The Key to Success The Unlocking Weight Team...

I've had a really busy day glossing all the woodwork on my landing and the bedroom doors. Didn't get around to having my first shake till 12 noon which was really stupid as I felt really dozy by then. Had another shake split into 2 hot choc n orange during the afternoon (really yummy). Then...

Well I'm Lucy (30) and my children are Callum (10), Tilly (9), Lydia (7) and Barnaby (4, 5 in Feb!). I'm engaged to Adrian (38) whom I've been with for 2 years now, he's going to start CD SS soon, think he'll start to panic when I weigh less than him :8855::8855: We have a miniture Dachshund...

Last night I dreamt I ate a whole victoria sandwich. I really enjoyed it and woke up feeling quite upset and guilty that I'd cheated. Took me a few minutes to convince myself it was a dream and I hadn't really eaten it. Strange thing is, I don't even like victoria sandwich cake! Looks like...

I'm on day 3, felt really rough yesterday but got tonnes of energy today, infact today I'm buzzing! In an odd sort of way I'm actually enjoying not eating, but I did dream about eating last night, was very odd. I dreamt I was eating victoria sponge and I don't even like it! :rolleyes: I have...

:wave_cry:Hello, is there still room for me in your team? I'm on day 3 and due to weigh in on Wednesday.

I'm way over BMI 40 and I'm on day 2 of SS. I saw my GP today who happily signed my forms and offered me free gym and swimming membership. I told him I'd go back after I've lost my first 2 stone as there is no way I could go to the gym or near a swimsuit like I am now! Good luck x

Hello, I'm looking for a space on a team. Looks like it could be fun, plus I like winning so I'll try extra extra hard for my team!

Well I'm on day 2 today and things are going good. I felt tired, achey, heavy and stroppy when I got up this morning but feel a lot better as the day has gone on. I'm a childminder so being at home preparing food for children, it's tough not to pick.

Thanks everyone, gonna be really good to have somewhere to come for support.

......new to Cambridge. I started the Cambridge Diet yesterday. I'm doing SS, and I'm feeling really positive about it. I've got a lot of weight to loose but I'll get there! Sorry if I've put my hello thread in the wrong place. :o
