I am starting a food diary to try and keep me on track. I have stuck to it 100% and have lost 10lbs in 5 weeks. However, since having just one takeaway last week I have really gone off the rails. Not sticking to my food plan, sneaking in choccie, biscuits and takeaways when no-one is around :(...

Hi everyone :) I was on this forum a long time ago back when I did slimming world. I took time out to have a baby and now I am back! I am looking forward to joining group tonight. I need some 'me' time and I need something to focus on. I also need to loose my baby weight :sigh: I am sure I...

GOOD LUCK!

I always make sure I wear leggings or tights and I only eat my breakfast and a small lunch - no snacks until I've been weighed. I also make sure my bladder is fully empty before I step on the scales - ha

Lunch for me is some leftovers from last night - pasta with chopped toms, natural yoghurt, peppers and onions, topped with cheese from HE EX A, followed by an Activia

I would say so, I am aiming for the same. But like people have said I am not going to be disheartened if I stick to it and lose less - a loss is moving in the right direction

Trying quorn sauasage and baked bean pie later so I will see how that goes!

It is my WI tonight, I have stuck to it all week and started back up glasses at the gym this week so I am hoping for a loss - I am really nervous though as it is my first time weighing in for a while knowing I have stuck to it so reeeeally wanna see a loss x

Back at class tonight after two weeks not going and a hefty weight gain! I have managed to be back on the wagon since last Tuesday though and got back into the gym this weekend so I am hoping the gain is a minimum although I know it WILL be a gain. Ready to tighten my reins now like all of the...

I will be making SW Chilli and rice after I get home from group - will be taking leftovers to work tomorrow to have with a spud for lunch x

Thanks so much for all the replies! Think I will try adding to fruit and may have to invest in some sweetner!

I will be reading this as I have about 2 stone to lose and think you look fab!

2 jacket potatoes with leftover quorn chilli from last night

*bump* anyone?

I skipped Monday's class and have been back on it since yesterday. Hoping if I am 100% until next WI I can undo some of the damage - probably not but in a way I feel more motivated to stick to it than I have in ages which can only be a good thing!

Hi everyone I am off to the supermarket for my weekly shop in a mo. I wanted to have Oats so Simple porridge for my brekkie as a HEXB but I prefer the Golden Syrup as the plain gets a bit boring. I have been looking and Golden Syrup is 6 and a half syns! The plain one is 5 syns. Would it be...

Thanks! I'm not really into salad but veg stir fry and noodles sounds yummy - any sauces I could use that are syn free? e.g. soy or a chilli type sauce? Also do you think this would be nice prepared night before and heated in a microwave at work or would this go soggy if you know what I mean?
