If you look on the website it has a special offers section - it's half price membership atm.

On a green day you can have 10 if you want (5 a and 5 b) - I assume it's because a's give you the calcium you need and b's are for protein both of which are in cheese.

I weigh every day as I find it helps see cycles and periods when you are more likely to gain weight. I started doing it after i read an article in new scientist about how either daily or less than weekly (monthly I think they may have said) wi's were best. I don't compare it directly with my...

It's not as good. I entered my weight this week and it showed me a loss of 1/2 lb even though the actual loss was 1 1/2lb

I weigh myself every day but have done for ages (before I started slimming world). I started after reading in new scientist that it's best to either weigh regularly as you can spot fluctuations due to hormones etc. It always matches with wi as in wether it's up or down but I never compare the...

I had the thai one - just checked and it's 4 syns. :D

I had scrambled egg with bacon chopped in and a banana (after, not added :p)

I think what they are doing is a bit silly. It sounds like they think they are saving up all of their syns till then and I dind't think it worked like that. On a weekly basis if you don't use them you lose them.

I get my extra lean mince from asda - usally two packs for a fiver.

I've just had a look on the website and on the a-z list of free foods baked beans in tomato sauce has a green ss next to it (as well as h, f and free). Doesn't that mean it is super speed but only on a green day?

I used to drink a lot of pepsi max and since giving up haven't noticed any difference in my weight loss. If they were that bad they wouldn't be free.

well done guys - I lost 1 this week :D

I use the plain ones with a teaspoon of honey (1 syn).

I'm probably going to be in the new year. My class is changing to half an hour earlier which will make it very difficult to get to after work.

It would have to be Bono. I really love u2 so I'd let him bring the boys along if he liked :)

It's achievable but you'll be pushing it with getting a dress - mine took 9 months and then I was lucky it didn't need altering (although I wish I hadn't done it backwards and lost weight after the wedding).

I have got wii fit plus now and it's much better than the original but it still drives me nuts that it can take 45 minutes to do half an hours exercise. I like it enough to do 3 days a week combined with 3 days of my fitness coach though :)

I do it but the only thing I pay attention to is my wii fit age

Congratulations - that's amazing!!!

I'm hoping to stay the same but won't be too gutted if I gain a little. We're going to my h's family this year so I've got my hands tied with what we have for meals but I think as long as i don't stuff myself (and h's nan doesn't keep going on about how I'm too thin like she did when we last...

1/2 lb off for me and I got my 1.5 stone award. Was very surprised as I may have had a small incident with a banana cake I made at the weekend.

At the moment I do 15 minutes 3 times a week and 30 mins 3 times a week on my fitness coach for the wii. I'm building it up to 6 lots of 30 mins a week.

I always make sure I eat beforehand and don't have anything whilst I'm there. It really helps that the people I go with don't snack there any more either - not going near any of the snack stands makes it a lot less tempting.

Whats worse for me is i don't really like them but I love the orange ones that come in the pack. I really begrudge those syns but my hubby doesn't like muller lights and I'm not throwing them away.

My favorite thing has to be hotel chocolat tasting selection. 2.5 syns each and I get a box every 3 months. It takes h and I about a month and a half to eat them but they are just so nice when I need a chocolate fix. I already have my hc advent calendar ready.

Well done

I calculated both the vanilla (1.5) and the mango and something (2). i could believe they have syns as I think the second highest ingredient is sugar

I'm in - I've been bad recently becuase of my ibs. I went completely off it so now I'm having to completely rethink my plan to fit in with my health problems.

I wouldn't have thought they would allow it in real life. It's not lie it was a real tasting - just an advert filmed with actors and all that :)

Have you just signed up to lifelineonline? This is the email I got. From what i can see slimming world uses multiple domains including slimming-world.com and slimmingworld.co.uk

I had bloods taken yesterday and my dr is referring me to a dietician as although I was told that I had ibs a while ago I haven't been able to find a trigger. I can eat things one day and be fine and then the next time I have them I can be really rough. I've just kept going with the plan and...

I like the lowlow - it tates just like the cathedral city but is about half the price. I'm a sucker for really strong cheddar and can't stand any that taste fake so I was surprised how nice these two are.

I reckon to start off with it must have come off my fingers as I couldn't see any change in my measurements even though my weight was going down. Then my boobs decided to wave goodbye :cry:

I'm 5ft 8 and weigh 11s 12. I'm a size 14 on the bottom and 12 on the top.

I used to go but it didn't really do much for me. I went 3 times per week for months and didn't lose a thing. I also found it very kleeky and it's a little intimidating as you do it in a circle so everybody can see you exercising.

Well done

My le creuset stainless steal saucepans. They heat up really quickly over a really low heat and have a really cool handle which holds the lids for when stiring.

Fantastic - well done :D

I reached club 10 last night. I was given a form to sign and I now have to either lose or keep club 10 off for 10 weeks and then I get a free week. Seeing as I'm going away for a long weekend in germany between now and then I don't think it's going to happen :o

Well done guys. I lost 1 lb this week and got my club 10.

Wow size 8 - that's really great. Many moons ago at uni I went down to 8.5 stone and was still a 14 so i don't think I'll ever be that small. Although I'm over 3 stone heavier now and a size 14 once again which I'm finding very confusing :D

We got it a couple of weeks ago. It's ok although our c is taking her time getting used to it. I'm a little irritated by the fact that if you buy 6 or 12 weeks you have to say when your holidays are going to be. Who knows that far in advance? And it's not like it would be hard to program it so...

I would like to be positive but theres a little voice in the back of my head telling me that I'll only be dissapointed if I am. I know I've been good this week so I guess I have no reason not to be.

well done - it's a great feeling isn't it? :D

I know exactly what you mean. I went to a wedding recently and in the official photos look massive. Typically all the others in the pictures were skinny and the ones who were the same or larger than me looked thinner as I was right on the edge of the pics.

At our group we're having a red themed party and we've been asked to take a friend and some food.

I can't believe that a mother would want her daughter to be overweight. That story is so sad :(

I moved over from ww in April and I'm loving it. I got to the point with ww where I had lost 3.5 stone but wasn't losing any more and was finding it really difficult to stay within my points and I wasn't even having any 'treats'. Also, the big thing for me with ww was I gave up eating fruit...

I can't see either ww malted danish or sugar puffs on the heb list. The bread is 2.5 syns and the sugar puffs are 5.5. The flora is ok though :)

great loses guys. I lost 1.5 lbs - just another 0.5lbs till I get to 4 stone. I seem to have been creeping towards it for weeks now - fingers crossed for next week although I'll probably gain as I'm going to a birthday party and a friend had bought me a bottle of mead :D

Nachos with cheese, guacamole, sour cream and salsa.

I think it's just the size - in the book a bap is 113g and a roll is 50g.

My hubby nearly always had the same as me - the ony time we have something different is if we get something quick to bung in the oven. He'd have no chance of me actually cooking something different for him - if he wants something different he knows where the kitchen is.

I love chilli and have it almost every week. I chop a large onion and fry with 4 chopped garlic cloves in fry light until soft. Then add 1 tsp mild curry powder, 1 tsp hot chilli powder and 1/2 tsp ground ginger. Cook for 1 minute and remove from pan. Add extra lean mince and cook till brown...

depends if you go by meteorological or atrronomical - I'm going for the first to make me feel better :p

I've had it on twice this week and now have it on timer for the morning :( Didn't want to but I guess it is autumn.

Good luck guys :cross:

Good luck guys

I drink 2 litres of sugar free squash a day and I really notice it when I don't - it really helps with bloating and water retention as when you don't drink much your body trys to retain as much water as it can.

I've got some pocky sticks to take tonight. I might make something if we have another taster. Some of the savoury dishes sound lovely. I wish I could do something like that but I go straight to class from work (finish at 17:30 and class is at 18:00).

Thanks for the replies. They all sound lovely. The mikado ideas sounds tempting though (aren't I lazy :p )- I have a box at home

We've got a taster night at wi tomorrow and I was wondering what sort of things people take. I need something that I can prepare before work and last all day (and a 2.5 mile walk) as I go straight to wi. I tried making one of the couscous cake recipes from on here to see what it was like but...

Well done guys. I had a 2.5 loss and got my stone award - only another 2.5lbs now to my next target (4 stone total loss since starting weight loss) :)

Wii fit is fun but not much of a workout. I think wii fit 2 which is coming out sometime this year is supposed to be better. I've got my fitness coach which is a really good cardio workout and also it tailors itself to which programme you are using and gets harder over time (if you say it's too...

Well done for getting referred. They don't do sw in my area but they do ww referals. If they are the same then the nhs won't be paying £5 per week - I know with the ww referral the nhs pays £35 for 12 weeks which is a lot less than an individual will pay. I think it's a great idea wether you can...

Well done guys. I started slimming world 3 weeks ago and am really emjoying it atm. I lost 2 lbs this week :)
