They are really excellent. Got a few bits of meat recently which had too much fat on( in a supermarket) and they took it off no bother. Like every bit. So now I take anything I but so it can be cut off- its cheaper as your not paying for the fat and your not getting the fat in your diet! They...

Lea huni, u know my opinion on this but atkins is so bad for you in the long run and as you start to eat carbs then the weight will just come back faster then it came off. I know it feels great stepping on the scales and seeing a huge loss but your body isn't getting anything it needs vitamins...

Beef and Chicken stir fry.... yummy!

Hiya, I weighed in on Sunday and lost 3 pounds.. easiest diet i've ever done! woop! good luck to everyone else too xxx

Soooo well done to everyone who lost! lets hope for some great loses next week too..! Emma, huni, i'm in the same boat! I have a lot to lose but just can't seem to get my head around eating a mountain of food to lose weight! Just doesn't make sense in my head, or my OH who always seems to look...

3lbs off for me! wahoooo! hoped for a bigger loss week 1 but hey ho! Now off for some beans and sausages.. feels weird saying that LOL lets hope for some bigger loses from me next week! good luck guys and gals xxx

Scottish Slimmers Vension Sausages.. Sorry if this has been posted already but was wondering what the syn value is for Scottish Slimmers Venison Sausages (55cals) on red please..:D

13.5 total on green but that was for a 330g portion and salad.. was lush! Glad you have someone doing it with you- my OH had chips and cheese.. dont even want to consider the syn value to that lol

So to my complete and utter surprise, i had take away last night, in my syn allowance and it felt great to have such a treat but know that its okay! I had chicken tikka byriani with salad and it was lush!! I even got my OH to ask them to make it with less fat! Gotta love SW!! :o

Oh no don't apologise, its one of the funniest things that's ever happened to me! They tried to tell me that it was curry and i was like 'i can assure you its def not curry...' Avoid it like the plague!!

LOL i know.. i said it was a side effect of medication.. **there was a silence**

:I was on the GP version called Orlistat (basically a double dose) and lets just say passing wind whilst not on the loo was NEVER an option and lead to a very embarrassing situation when i had to claim on the DFS stain guard after an unfortunate incident! I lost about a kilo but that was it...

Aww thanks guys lol Back to work for me tomorrow too *gonna be hard getting out of bed me thinks* but thankfully im always busy in my classroom so not much time for sitting down on my big bum- burn calories,burn! :eek: anyway best be off here and make dinner..veggi chilli with butter beans...

Dont get me started on the hair lol cheeso!! :D I was told to avoid carbs but the red days do my head in.. reminds me of my atkins days! How long have you been doing this for? I'm getting married next year so given how long it takes to shift weight with PCOS thought i better start now lol xx

Hiya, I have PCOS as well and just been put on metaformin so hoping SW and the tablets will help! bloody hate PCOS.. what exactly did i so wrong lol haha!! I have the implanon implant which has been really good for me, better than the pill anyway! Are you doing EE or the original plans? Best of...

Sounds tasty! never thought about burgers before..!

Ive just had a big bowl and it was very tasty!

Well done you! SW is ace, all the yummy food you get to eat and no nasty side effects either :P Good luck to you too huni! xx

:confused:OK here goes! my gp told me that my weightloss has been great but it will be slowed down by a change of contraception.. (went from the pill to the implant) and i should expect to probably put on weight until it settles! My god i just want to cry! It sounds mad but i'm scared to gain...

pasta and pesto? my fav with the red pesto- only 2.5 syns per tablespoon which did more than enough for me!

You go girl! Lets start a study and slim club lol I miss the study muchies but hey ho! best of luck hun! xx

Hiya, I am going it alone aswell! Partly because i cant afford to go to class (im a student) and also that i get nervous very easily but i seem to be doing ok at home. Lost a fair bit but it is harder to be strict on yourself or have the attitude of 'i can always start again tomorrow'... i kind...
