I snack on uncle bens rice pouches, and I still lose. Maybe some people are just different, but I eat 2 dinner sized meals a day, plus snacks, and still lose.

On my old phone, which wasn't flash like a blackberry or an iphone, just your run of the mill Sony Erricsson (easily the best brand), I could get onto the SW site without any problems... :/

I had a period a few months ago where I got really lazy with counting my syns - rounding them down and things like that - but I saw the damage and now I'm really careful with it. I will have a look at the diaries though, just to get an idea if I'm doing anything wrong. The only thing other than...

I'm back on plan too, and not happy. Somehow I managed to lose 2lbs over christmas, where I was eating fairly badly. Now I'm back on plan, I've gained it all back, and then another pound! Does anyone know why this would be?

I lost 2lbs this week, which is really amazing when you consider that on top of our usual chinese on weigh in night, I also had 2 nights out drinking, and one big roast dinner at a family meal. :D

I'd imagine that if I didn't go on the weeks when I gained, I'd slip out of the plan completely and then just give up all together. At least if you go to the group, you know it'll be crap, but after that you can draw a line under it. Get yourself back to the group. Pretend like you're starting...

I use some of them on light bolognese sauces, mayo, ketchup, things like that. When I go for snacks, I have things like: - Curly Wurlies - Mini milks - Options hot choc - Quavers / frazzles - Mini twisters - Cereal

We have a harvester about 15 minutes away from us, and frequently go there for dinner. I always take it as an extra easy day - that way I can have the chicken breast with the jacket potato without any guilt. (Except for the mustard and ketchup I have with it). Oh and that salad bar is...

^ Ah, that makes sense. I thought there must be a reason. I love the options ones so much that there's no way I'm going to go back to full fat choc mix when I hit target. :)

3.5 syns on hot choc!? I couldn't imagine using 3.5 syns on hot choc - cadbury's highlights are usually around 2, and options (my personal fave) are only 1.5. And they come in some delicious flavours, I'd recommend the coconut or the orange ones. Yum!

The implant shouldn't be used to regulate periods, there are absolutely no guarantees of how it will affect them! I have two friends who had the implant put in and stopped having periods (though one only had them stop after 6 months of continuous spotting). Personally, I've had my implant in for...

I have been following the plan - filling up on all my free green foods, keeping my syns to 10 as an upper limit. And yesterday at weigh in I gained 2.5lbs. I've spoken to my consultant, and she said there's not really a lot they can do about it. She's given me a food diary so I can write...

Hello folks, I've been doing SW since mid-april, and have just gone over my 3 stone award. I got put on some tablets about 2 weeks ago, called Mirtazipine. They're anti-depressants, but they seem to be making me so hungry all the time! I'm filling up on free foods - having a huge plate of...

I'll miss some of my favourite clothes. I also think I'll miss being able to think "bugger it, I'm already fat" and have some crisps and a chocolate bar. But I won't miss everything being fat has done to me.

I go to SW with my boyfriend's mum on a wednesday. Wednesday night is naughty night - anything from a chinese to a pizza. It's good to reward yourself.

I usually par-boil them for about 7 minutes (not the 5 that SW say, and less than some members here), and then leave them for ten minutes to let them dry. I then cheat a little bit, because our coliander isn't great for roughing them up, and kind of score the chips with a knife - gives you...

Yeah, it was on high. It took about another 3 or 4 minutes, then all the liquid seemed to disappear at once! It was absolutely delicious, and my chips turned out the best I've had them before. All in all, I could eat this every day. In fact, I might.

It doesn't seem to be thickening or reducing much... It's been about 15 minutes. Is anyone online?

I'm making it for me and my boyfriend right now. Smells oddly nice. We're going to have it with syn free chips and sweetcorn. Finger crossed!

Thank you so much for all of your replies. I think I will try it for a week or two - I'm hoping this won't slow my loss at all. Scarlet Daisy - that thread was very useful. :) Wish me luck!

Hi, I'm still fairly new ot the forum, so I hope this isn't a repeated thread, but I was curious about the extra easy plan. I'm currently on the green plan pretty much exclusively - I don't really eat that much meat. Recently, I've been fancying a bit of a change - grilled chicken in some pasta...

There is a flip side of having scales in your bathroom though. I go to a wednesday morning meeeting (lost 2.5lb yesterday :)), and I seem a lot of the time to be heavier in the morning. Last week I had an official weigh in result of +1lb. I was really disheartened, because i'd been really good...

I was talking to my SW buddy (I go with my boyfriend's mum) yesterday when we were walking to our weigh in. She said that they had a little experiment in the group once, to see how much the jeans weighed. On average, apparently it added about 2 pounds on to their total, so don't get disheartened!

I just saw the line-up for the Y-not festival. I'd highly recommend seeing the Sunshine Underground set, they're very funky and good for a dance - which is extra good for losing those pounds. :)

Okay, I love the slimming world diet. But when they say "free foods", do they expect us not to go over a certain amount? Because I've been doing it for a few months now, and my loss seems to have slowed considerably, and last week I had a gain for a reason I'm not entirely sure of. The only...

I'm going to Beautiful Days at the end of August, and I intend on taking a tin or so of beans or spaghetti and some cereal bars, as well as a half-loaf of bread. I'm not sure about the fest you're going to, but a majority of the time the no glass rule only applies in the festival site rather...

There can't have been much oil on the egg, so I'd probably guess around 5 syns for that. The hash brown would've probably been around 3.5 syns (according to the syn directory), plus the oil that would've been cooked in... I'd probably say around 10 for the lot?

Hello everyone, My name is Kaitey, and I've been lurking on this forum for a while. I've been fat for as long as I can remember, and have some problems regarding complusive/secret eating. I also have a brilliant boyfriend who I've been with for just under 2 and a half years, and his mum has...
