I only lost 3/4's of a pound this week, but I absolutely stuffed myself silly with chocs at Easter, so I'm sure that doing at least 20 minutes a day on the Wii fit must have kept weight going on this week. Pesty - 8 hours - 1 hr 35 mins so far StacieG - 16 hrs - 5 hrs 51mins so far...

Hmmm.. dunno, lol. Maybe I'll freeze a couple and see. I do freeze my Curly Wurly's though.

Well done Sarah, and well done Daisydoo on your stone!! I'm just one pound and a quarter off of the first stone.

So it's Monday again and I'm first with the weigh in... coz I do it at home, lol. At Easter I consumed 6 small eggs, similar to Cadbury's Creme eggs (3 of them were) and 2 big Easter Eggs... and lots of little mini eggs, smarties eggs, milky bar eggs... BUT, stuck to plan the rest of the time...

Thanks everyone, yeah it does feel good. I never thought I'd get into them, and it surprised me to how little really, that I had to lose to fit into them... Good luck everyone else who's trying to get into a favourite old pair of theirs too.

I can weigh on the wii fit and straight away on my digital scales where I do my weekly "official" weigh in and I'm always almost 2lbs lighter on the wii... maybe it's because it's on a carpet?? The losses show the same though.

Get some Curly Wurly's in and put them in the freezer, they're 6 syns and scrummy. I have a sweet tooth and make sure I have one every day and a Cadbury's Highlights hot chocolate for another 2 syns.

Well in the thirteen minutes that have passed since my posting... I've eaten the bloody egg. GOOD, GOOD RIDDANCE! Back to normal tomorrow. Hooray!!

I have eaten 6 Cadbury Creme eggs, a whole Easter Egg, and God knows how many mini eggs... and tomorrow I'm going to eat my last big Easter Egg, sod it. I'm a chocoholic and I knew I couldn't get through Easter without chocolate, but it's not the end of the world... I shall do half an hour each...

Lost 2lbs this week, wooohooooooooo. I bet I don't lose next week, I had FOUR Cadbury's Creme eggs yesterday, AND a whole Easter Egg... If I wasn't on a "diet", there is no way I'd of eaten all of that in one go, lol... withdrawals...

Well done everyone so far. 1lb loss for me this week, not bad as I had chocolate birthday cake, sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice...

Ah good, thanks! Must say, I LOVE the Wii fit board! Ok.... (3 days left so...) Goal 45 minutes - so far 0

My Wii fit was bought for me for my birthday, so I've had mine since Thursday... soooooo... can I join?????????????????????

I lost four and was very happy with that, but as they say, a lot of what you lose in the first week is water and not fat.

I lost just half a pound this week... I thought it would be better than that as last weeks weigh in was a loss of 2.5lbs and that was taken a day before my period.

I used to like beetroot as a child, but since I gave up smoking 4 years ago (no I didn't smoke as a child, lol) it just tastes earthy/muddy and far too sweet... shame really coz I loved it before!

So there's no hard and fast "rules" then really. I'll just have to see what happens next Monday. I'm only ever on light anyway, so hopefully it won't make much difference to me.

When others have their *week, do you gain the week you're due, or the week after??? I had a 2.5lbs loss for last week and only weighed yesterday, but today the stars came out, lol, so will my weigh in next Monday show a gain? What generally happens with all you other girls??

My friend who's also doing SW for the past year now (she's lost over 3 stone), drinks lager every Friday and Saturday night (think she's a bit of a binge drinker), and she has lost weight 98% of the time and only over Christmas did she put on any weight. Hopefully your wine will be ok too.

Well done to everyone so far. I've lost 2 and a half pounds this week, so that's 8.5lbs gone!! Good luck to the rest weighing today.

It's weird but most of my meals are EE, but could so easily be a red or a green. I have bacon most days so even on a green day you can have 2 rashers as a HEB, so there's the extra B for a start.

Sainsbury's doing Sizzling Danish back bacon 20 rashers for £2!!

So was Mix 2 Match where each meal was either a green, red, or EE?

I'm following EE and I'm on my third week. I lost 4lbs the first week and 2 the second, so it's working. I tried red and green days before and just found them too limiting and confusing. I think with EE you might get a slower weight loss, but I don't know, I can eat easily on EE so I'm happy on it.

I do poo at work, lol, but I work in a hospital and only at the weekends, so I can normally find a loo and sit there for quite a while in peace and quiet.

Excellent, thanks Jaylou x

Stupid question about rice... I don't normally do anything with it other than boil it. If I was to make a risotto, or just egg fried rice, would I have to first boil the rice??

Well done! It's a great achievement!!! You're right to feel proud.

Ok Kissme, thanks, I'll try that with my next cup.

Kissme! LOL! How do you get it taste like a chuppa chup lolly coz I love those!!!!!!!!!! Maybe I'll shove in a Splenda.

Ok... just had my lunch and now following it down with a Twinings Green Tea with Pineapple and Grapefruit. My verdict is that it smells GORGEOUS, tastes.... like hot water with a slight grapefruit aftertaste... so drinkable, lol. I'll see how I get on.

Thanks for the idea's. BrightonRose, I have a Curly Wurly sometimes, I had one tonight... I freeze them then they take longer to eat, lol. Thanks for telling me how to do the tomato soup, I'll try it out! Angie, I never thought of synning the Alpen and having bread instead... if it doesn't get...

Well done everyone!!!! Thanks Pesty xx

Trouble is... I still like to have that one Alpen if not two, lol... there's no pleasing me is there?! lol. I need to buy a smaller loaf, I've just got the normal 800g ones. I know I could syn the other slice but my syns are precious to me for choccie!!! LOL! At the weekend I take pasta in...

Yeah, I'm really pleased Angie. I seem to have my head round it all this time around, so hopefully I'm going to stay positive about it all.

Hi Angie, lol...er.......... well sort of... I will have to put my diary in tonight. I lost 4lbs this week though, wooohoooooooooo.

Hi and welcome to the forum Jess and to Slimming World. I'm a restarter and doing EE and I love it. I use almost all of my Syns each day. I don't know how you manage without them. I have to use them for gravy, salad cream... and my chocolate lol. If you write you food diary in the food diary...

Thanks x No I don't like cous cous, I'm so fussy lol. I didn't think about the ryvita and cottage cheese, that's an idea. I only have the multigrain ones, but they'll have to do this week.

Week One! Fanfare please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 4lbs LOSS!!! Wooohooooooooooooooooooooo Well done DaisyDoo and Poppy. Good luck to all the others later today!!

Thanks Aurora. Yeah I realise it's two Alpen bars, and even though I'm a sweet person more than a savoury I'm still finding it hard to have the two. I think I would rather have a bowl of bran flakes, but then I'd have to syn more milk lol. At work I had pasta for lunch. In the week I tend to...

Thank you BrightonRose. I think I'm going to start and have some jacket potatoes for lunch instead of the yogurt and fruit, although I do enjoy that, lol. I think I eat better when I'm at work, but that's only weekends, and I do seem to be having trouble fitting in my HEB.

MMMmmmMMMmmMMmmmmmm me too!!! Wouldn't it still work out at 20 calories = 1 syn?

Could someone please have a look at my food diary and let me know if I'm doing ok? With the exception of Wednesday's birthday cake and the battenburg on Thursday, lol...:D Thanks!!

Hellooooooooo, good, and thanks!! My day has actually changed back to an EE day, lol... so much easier.

Oh I dunno about the gym! I'm just about managing 20 minutes on Just Dance on the Wii each day, lol. I think I'm going to try having the smoothie again, but from Monday, as I know it works for me even though I'll have to use 6 syns. Or maybe it's just coz it's a diet change at the moment. The...

1/2 a syn each is a lot... blimey.

Trouble is, I always have!!! And now it's even worse, lol.:eek::eek::eek:

Oh, and don't get me started on the wind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Jaylou, yeah I think I might if things don't improve over the weekend. I do try to Pesty. But when you're doing EE, you only get one B... which is a shame, lol.

Yeah I suffer with that too... impatience, lol. I want things to come the day before I order them!!

Lol, sorry... but... I suffer with IBS and before SW I was having a smoothie made up with natural yogurt, banana, and pear... it really sorted me out nicely, lol, sorry. But of course, on SW smoothie's are a no no, so I've been eating lots of fruit... and now....... constipation...

Wooohoooo Pesty, that's great, am jealous, lol. The Wii Just Dance is fab too, I'll do 20 minutes on it later!

I hope this continues!! I can't afford to get the Wii Fit plus until May!!!... but I do have Just Dance, lol.

Knock knock!! LOL! Hi, just read that the door is open to everyone following EE. I'm using my old books, and started doing EE on Monday of this week. Although, sometimes I find it restrictive with only the one HEA and HEB, so today I am actually doing a red day... but most days will/are...

Right, ok, thanks everyone for your help.

Ok, thanks Devon Dumpling. But why doesn't it matter about blended soup? You're not using your teeth etc so still swallowing it like you would a fruit smoothie, lol... it's all so complicating.

Yeah, Pesty! I could understand if I'm blending with orange juice, but not if it's with the natural yogurt. Plus... ok, sugar is released when it's blended, but doesn't my stomach or my teeth make that happen also??

Hi. I make my own smoothie's... very low fat natural yogurt blended with a banana and a pear. I eat the pear skin while blending the smoothie... so it's still syned? Why is a smoothie syned but not homemade blended vegetable soup? Surely you're doing the same thing to the vegetables as you are...

WOW! Well done Poppy on your weight loss! You look fab!!!!! Just thought I'd have a browse round the other forums on here and stumbled across the windy one, lol... I've got it all the time! Not just when dieting... or perhaps it IS my diet, lol.

Thanks Missy x

Oh... it says on the carton The Kitchen, and New Covent Garden Food Company. Thanks

I've fallen in love with the Covent Garden Tomato and Basil soup, but how many syns please? The bad stuff in it is 6g unsaturated fat from olive oil, and 14g sugar... Thanks :)

Sorry I've been AWOL for a while. I'm still losing, but very slowly, I don't seem to be putting in much effort. I've lost 3.5lbs in a month lol

GGGGGrrr.... I've not been sticking to the eating plan... but I've stayed the same for two weeks running...

One pound off me this week... amazing being as I had pancakes and birthday cake again this week!!

Thanks girls!! :D I do feel ever so slightly guilty that I still lost half a pound, lol :p. I bet I won't be so lucky next week, but I'll keep my fingers crossed. Ikkle, all those scrummy things you've been making, you're making me hungry!!!!! Well done everyone else on your losses, or staying...

Yeah, am gonna be good!!! Well, apart from tomorrow night coz of the pancakes and more birthday cake, lol, so if I even STS or lose half again next week, I'll cope... thank goodness that's all the birthday's out the way till mine in March, lol.

Well.............................................. Last Wednesday, it was dads for dinner and it was stew and dumplings, but the only thing that was bad was the dumplings... but then the 15 Quality Street chocs didn't help. Then on Thursday it was my son's 20th and he got us delivered the most...

Oh, and plus the birthday cake!

Yeah it was... well worth it, lol. Tomorrow is my son's birthday, he's 20, and he's buying lots of pizza's... flipping heck! I think this week is not going to be too good... but I will only have just one slice and no chips, or maybe just a few, lol... why did he have to have a birthday NOW??!

I think I actually prefer the Tesco ones to the Muller ones, they seem more creamy or something, thicker maybe.

Oh good, that's a relief! I didn't have many sins yesterday so that might make up for it.

Sod it, lol. It's only my second week and tonight I succomed (sp?) to apple and blackberry pie and ice cream... all my OH's fault of course! I didn't have that much, half of what I would normally of had... I've got such a sweet tooth. Oh well, hopefully it won't be that terrible on the scales...

Green Day. 350mls unsweetened soya milk. (HEA) Breakfast. 1 egg, 2 x bacon (HEB) 4 mushrooms, baked beans. Snack. Grapes. Lunch. Muller light yogurt with a banana chopped up in it. Snack about 4pm was starving! 2 x wm toast with one laughing cow, and one marmite. Low fat spread (HEA & HEB)...

Well done to everyone for their losses so far this week!!

Thanks B x I'm doing red and green, though it seems more green days than red.

I feel queasy tonight too, think it's the cheapo diet coke I bought tho, lol.

I think the name of the plan is implying that you'll lose weight at a slower pace, at least that's what it leads me to believe. Extra Easy meaning that it's an easier diet to stick to but because it's so easy, weight loss will be slower?? Is it just me that thinks of it that way?

Ok... don't panic for a start! Think about it, it is ONLY 3lbs, not 3 stones. So every so often you have a binge week, so does the skinniest of people. So you put on 3lbs every couple of months, but then you take off 10lbs! If this is how it is, then be happy about it and don't worry about it...

I'm on week two, and enjoying it. It's a great eating plan.

Perhaps I need to learn that chant... I keep getting on them every day.

Ok, so 2.5lbs lost this week... I'm supposed to post that here right?

I've not seen those ones yet, they're on my "to get" list.

Wooohoooooooo, congratulations!!!!!!!!!!!! Great acheivement!

Wow that's great! Well done!

Thanks everyone. I was hoping it was going to be a bit more, but I've been quite constipated, lol, better luck next week!!

I can't change the ticker thingy though! I'll work it out later... got to take the dog back to the vets to have her stitches out (she had a lump in her breast).

Ikkle! I can definitely see it's going from your tummy, well done!! Woohoooo!!

Hmmm... :cool: dunno about live off them... but I could Muller light yogs!

Well done Katherine!! You must have felt elated at losing 6lbs after that!

Friday 13th (:eek:) Feb Green Day B. 3rd can baked beans 4 grilled mushrooms 1 x grilled bacon 1 wm toast 1 yogurt with banana L. Yogurt and 1 Alpen Light (2 HEB along with the 1 wm toast and 1 bacon) Snacks - Snack a Jacks (3 syns) (Though cheapo Sainbury's snacks only 67 cals per pack!! Less...

I could just eat the packet of pasta on it's own!! OOoooh, I shall have to buy some of those now, lol.

I've just checked, yeah they're free! HOW??? I LOVE them!

And those Bachelors packets are free??? With the sauce?????

LOL I'm glad I'm not the only one! I'm on a green day... mind you, most of my days seem the same until dinner, so I can't really blame it on that!

C H O C O L A T E :o

That's me today! OH will say that's nothing different to usual then, lol.

Yeah, it's especially annoying when it goes up during the day, but of course it's going to, lol.. how much does a mug of tea weigh???

Well done ikkle!!! Amazing! Bet you feel so proud!! I've never tried the pasta quiche, is it fab tasting as well as free? Is the recipe on here or the SW site? Thanks for the welcomes too!

WOW! How fantastic you must feel! Well done!!

Green day 1 egg, baked beans, 4 grilled mushrooms, 2 x bacon (HEB) 1 x wholeameal toast (HEB) Sweetened soya milk for day 350ml (taken as 2 x HEA) Lunch Muller light yogurt with 1 banana. Snack a jacks (3 syns) Picking up son from school bought a finger of fudge!!! GGGRRRR! (6 syns!) Dinner...

I'm not free... lol, I've only been doing SW for three days and each day I've weighed myself... must stop must stop must stop. Well done to you by the way lol.

Yes Mrs V, I agree with that. Plus I'm happy eating what I'm eating, I don't feel like I'm on a diet. I would also prefer to eat this way and lose weight slower.

Thanks Annie. I might try that! I'm not much of a cook really, I tend to eat food as is... boring I know.

Don't beat yourself up... "normal" people have digestive biscuits, and we're all normal, just don't have anymore, lol.

I'm eating one or two bananas, but lots of grapes... but thinking about it, probably about 30 grapes a day. If I need a sweet fix I have a hand full. I'm losing. I think we're all different, so maybe some people can't eat banana's but others can, just have to find out what you can and can't...

ooooh choccie fingers... trouble is, could I only stick to a couple of them???

Thank you! Ok... no more stepping on the scales till weigh in... sigh, lol.

Congratulations!!! Wooohooooooooooooooo

...fill up on if you're having one of those always hungry days? Favourite sweet fix? I'm getting through quite a lot of Muller light yogurts, and tons of grapes, which is my sweet fix. I'm a chocoholic and have an options before bed, and I really look forward to that treat.

Thanks Mrs V! I feel such a pig though, lol. But my old eating habits were no brekkie, then probably a bar of chocolate, nothing till dinner, then crisps in the evening. I've already stepped on the scales and after only 3 days I've lost just under 1 and a quarter pounds! I'm amazed! :8855:

This is only day three of being on the SW diet... when I look at the amount of food I'm eating, it's hard to believe you can lose weight!

Green Day. Breakfast. Cuppa tea. 1 poached egg, 5 grilled mushrooms, 3rd of a can of tomatoes. Lunch. Muller light yogurt and chopped banana, handful of grapes. Cuppa tea. Snack. Muller light yogurt, orange, grapes, banana. Cuppa tea. Dinner. Jacket potato, lettuce, tomato, 1 egg. Cuppa tea...

Big hugs to you Mrs V... I know I hate it whenever my OH is away from me, thankfully it's not often. He had to go away for two weeks way back in 2000 and I couldn't eat! The only thing I had was full sugar coke! I lost a stone in those two weeks... wouldn't recommend it though, lol. Do you get...

I haven't been hungry... well only during the time it's taken me to walk to the fridge and get either a Muller Light out or a handful of grapes! LOL!

Well done Nikki!

Well I was good.... I didn't have any quiche!! WOOOHOO

So... what's everyone having for dinner? i'm being boring tonight... having to eat what we've got in... so it's jacket with a salad and a slither of quiche.

Oh right, ok, thanks!

Hi! I only joined yesterday, but can I join the team?? What do I have to do if I do? lol Thanks!

no ignore me lol, how can what I said be correct??? Otherwise my packet of snack a jacks would be 6 syns!

I've been looking at all your pics, well done everyone, you all look amazing! It must feel mind blowing when you hit target, or even half way! I'm SO looking forward to losing!! Love Roz

Ok... lol. Someone told me that if you count every 20 calories as 1 syn, it worked out that my syn value for the amount of this sauce I had was 8.5 syns.

Oh ok, thank you!!

Aromatic Sweet and Sour. Does anyone know the syn value please? My friend just told me that it's 16.5! I can't believe that... it's approx 180 cals per serving, my friend gave me the syn value for the straight to wok sauce. Thanks! Roz.

Ok, thank you.

Thanks for the welcomes!! I'm quite excited to be on the SW eating plan and I've never eaten so much in all my life! I used to be a chocoholic... lol. One question... how do you get a pic as an avatar. I've clicked on the avatar bit on the edit thingy, but it's not giving me an option to add...

I've only just found this site, and it's so great that I did! It seems really friendly, so I'm looking forward to getting to know lots of you.

Hi, can someone check the Muller Vitality yogurts please?
