Hi from me too - cannot remember when I was last on here (oops) but getting my butt in gear again. Nice to see you all - afraid my weightloss is now different to my profile but will hopefully be back to where I was before.:)

Absolutely brilliant - so happy for you

I go to football match with hubbie and son every week to our local Glentoran Football Club. Man United household - our tv started with Rugby this am and has been football the whole day with Sky and Espn now recorded match of the day on. I have caught up with my library books and online now...

I scrape lid with spoon - then lick off remains

Better still - read HER the comments on your iphone and watch how red her face gets lol Well done - you've done brilliantly

Petty minded people who I imagine are like sticks and will probably end up old wizened looking ones too. Pity them and feel sorry for them not having magnanamous natures to give credit where credits due. A huge well done to you.

I remember a nurse once telling a relative of mine whilst on Olanzapine - there are no calories in any of these medications - its what you eat feeling hungry. So as others have said - stick to superfree foods and exercise - Slimming world - the way to go.;)

Steak : Beef Tomato: Flat mushroom: Salad

Baked beans my problem usually 4/5 hours after eating them

You look really great. If you are happy with how you look and feel then leave it at that which is the beauty of SW where you draw your own line. A well toned heavier body is better to me than a lighter flabby frame.

I had the flu virus over 2 weeks although unfortunately still wanting to eat eg bread with Manuka honey thickly spread etc and absolutely no exercise. First weigh-in in 3 weeks on Wednesday night following Christmas Dinner at lunchtime on that day. Reckon I'll have about 7 lbs on.

Think you are brilliant joining at the moment. The majority of people would make loads of excuses and put it off. You are taking the bull by the horns and making sure you dont pile on more weight. You'll def make a heck of a lot more "good" choices than you would have done had you waited...

Dear knows though why she suddenly left. I'm sure there must have been some awful reason.

Need exercise to tone and shape - otherwise too many hangy bits

Had uncooked porridge oats sprinkling of All Bran a little ss milk with blackberries blueberries strawberries grapes a few seeds dried cranberries and crushed walnuts on top.

Stew

I would also like to lose my last stone but in the New Year - would be happy to maintain over christmas Sorry thought I'dlost my previous post lol

I've about a stone to lose too (if people wouldn't keep telling me I dont need to lose any more). Full of the cold at moment - no exercise - sucking on throat tabs - hot honey drinks plus Manuka honey spoonfuls so def no loss this week.

I've got the flippin cold and feel rotten sipping hot honey and lemon drinks and spoonfuls of Manuka honey and no exercise which is most unusual for me. Drinking plenty of water though.

I'm hoping to be really good when I'm not being really bad lol

I think mine has turned into a dirty old man lol he keeps pinching mine mind you maybe he always did but I just couldn't feel it through the rolls of fat hehe

Brilliant post CP but even more brilliant photos of you - huge congratulations to you

Excellent - well done

I have 7x 3 course dinners starting next Saturday up until Christmas Eve with a meal out that day and buffet that night plus usual girly lunches but am looking on them all as a "Challenge" lol - 4 lbs away from 5 stone award now

Hi Lesley - not so sure that any "outside" cooked would be free but if you are "saving" syns then go ahead with the Tikka - I have consistantly had carryout Chicken Tikka Main Course(No sauce) with some Pilau Rice plus Pompadom(sp) with salad or carryout chinese usually chow mein although I...

We eat at 6.00 except on weigh-in nights. I usually go to bed 10.00 10.30 (so dont really need to snack) as I waken early in mornings. SW indicates it doesn't matter what time you eat at night.

I sometimes think that after a bad week and getting a sts or loss - people are so pleased that they actually undereat the following week and actually "diet" rather than eat the SW way.

Excellent - well done you

See page 2 Sneaky peekers lol thread started yesterday

You can absolutely do it

I'm at SW for 1 year 7 months and have weighed myself every single day on my digital bathroom scales. They are about a pound heavier than the SW ones and if I find they show more than I feel they should I stick to plan more closely to make sure they show less than they might have done. I...

1/2 LB ON - PHEW - that was lucky

I've got weigh-in tonight - oh dear

If not feeling well but able to get to shop I sometimes cheat making stew by using tinned carrots tinned stewing steak and only cooking chopped onions in frylite and adding the tinned ingrediants and adding roughly chopped cooked potato chunks by microwaving baked potatoes and when cooked...

When its cold and you feel hungry - try a hot drink first before you fill your mouth with bread or pastry

I would have said one and I mean one pizza piece would not have done too much damage - trouble is it might have made you want for more lol

"Treat" nights for me Wednesday (weigh-in) and Friday - usually lose if I'm "good" Saturday to Wednesday with lots of exercise right through the week.

Hi Tess - FREE on RED and EE

I'm afraid because I watched him the whole way through 6 feet under as a "gay" - I cant now observe him as a "straight" guy (sad I know).

I use dry porridge oats with a small amount of all bran sprinkled on top - a little milk and then put raspberries strawberries blackberries blueberries a few grapes or fresh pineapple plus a few chopped walnuts a pinch of mixed seeds and a few dried cranberries - delicious.

Any tinned fish mixed with onion peppers very low fat mayo or salad cream. I also love Tescos roasted chilli salmon fillets - 2 in pack and 2 packs for £6.50 - they are already cooked and can be chopped through salad or full fillet eaten with salad.

I do Aquarobics 3 times a week but favourite exercise is jogging in outdoor heated pool at David Lloyds. Would try to do an hour jogging twisting punching plus using board on front and back kicking with fins on feet. I have really toned up and have gone from a 20/22 swimming costume to a...

I find not drinking wine but sticking to spirit and diet mixer gives me a better weight loss.

Hi - I'm afraid that box would def call out to me. Can you think of anyone you could maybe give it to as a wee surprise for them. Imagine how amazing that would make you feel. Providing the person you chose is not also trying to be "good" choccy wise lol

Made my meatballs this morning but used porridge oats soaked in a little milk and then put into egg and a little flour and enough mince left over and cooked to make shepherds pie for another day.

Hi Would I get away with doing meatballs in slow cooker by just rolling mince into balls without breadcrumbs and egg?

I watched the first of Season 4 before dinner - thank goodness I didn't leave it until bedtime as I literally gasped at the ending which I have actually forgotten already - must be blanking it out lol. Did any of you watch him in 6 feet under - another classic series.

I think that exercise is def the way to go and certainly helps with hangy bits

I will enjoy both days but try and not stuff myself making good choices as much as possible. Have to arrange a Christmas Lunch with music and dancing on either the Wednesday or Thursday before Christmas. Have decided like last year to organise it for the Wednesday as that is weigh-in day and...

Scrambled egg grilled bacon plus lettuce and tomato (tasty)

Go for it - you'll meet like minded people who will be so supportive and you'll wonder how you ever got on without the comraderie.

So sorry you are having problems at moment - are you exercising? even walking will help the stress and maybe get you more focused.

Definately a spirit and diet mixer rather than wine or beer. Enjoy your night.

Thanks - wondered - thought it was over 30

Fed up getting this response in flippin months - whats the secret?

No you're not - forget about her and just focus on yourself - you can do this huge hugs

There's nothing I like more than weighing myself on my digital scales on weigh-in day and its never wrong

I honestly think that when you under eat or drink you have a worse loss as your syns dont add up to enough consumed over the week

My photos and form were given in on Wednesday night along with another girls but I think its our Consultants Area Manager who decides who goes through

Hayley - you go girl - you will look fab toned healthy and far far few hangy bits than those who exercise little.

Had cooked chilli salmon fillet with tinned spagetti for lunch and having cottage pie for tea.

I am finding it so hard to find before photos as never wanted photo taken - now looking forward to actually enjoying getting photos taken again

Hi and welcome - hope you do really well - brain clicked into gear and away you go

Really admire your determination so very well done

Have you upped the exercise? If not try it. If you have check out your inches.

I browned onions and lamb in pot in frylite added water chopped carrots and chunks of potatoes - cooked for a while on cooker then transferred into slow cooker. Now never use as much water as they recommend. When soft lifted out lamb steaks and cut remaining steaks up - transferred to another...

I have also cut down on bread but have also cut down on my portions of rice pasta potato etc. Great when eating out.

Why not Vodka ice and a dash of lime without the soda water?

Agree - def stick with it and I know sounds stupid but also make sure you are eating enough to get your metabulism working properly

Really surprised reading many different posts how rubbish some consultants are - feel SW should have mystery shoppers who can turn up at any meeting at any time and have it well documented to consultants to keep them on their toes and up to date.

Methinks the system is certainly not foolproof

:bliss:Alcohol hic

I had tinned salmon with vlf salad cream mixed with chopped cucumber on bed of lettuce Dinner - Lamb steak (cooked in Slow Cooker) served with chopped cooked white cabbage with chopped lean bacon mixed through and heated in non stick pan plus baked potato and baked beans

Reckon inches lost better than pounds - well done

Have a great holiday and as you say you will get plenty of exercise runnung after your twins

Extra Easy great for holiday and eating out at home too

Must say the new Scan Bran is much more pleasant tasting than they used to be.

I like Body Conditioning classes

Enjoy your holiday making as many good choices as you can and do as much exercise as you can - jogging in the water pool or sea is of even greater benefit than those serious joggers you will see each day - you will have the resistance of the water but protection of the joints.

Give her money to weigh you and ask her to put it away for you - a good incentive I would think and who knows if she can afford it she just might throw in interest on it too:thankyou:

I find all beans are my worst enemy - kites nothing - I could power a glider filled to capacity lol

:devilangel:I eat healthily but then drink alcohol

"Sticky" would def be what springs to mind

Absolutely brilliant - well done Chelsea.

As others have said - enjoy your pregnancy - no more strssing needlessly

Yes - I reckon you can go to other meetings free provided you had already paid and got weighed previously that week

I agree that this should be forwarded to Head Office for their information

Someone mentioned that Asda and Tesco inject their BBQ chickens. We in class have been told Asda do but Tesco dont.

I eat it cold out of the tin - never gets time to reach pot or plate. lol

My eyes were blurred reading everything so quickly lol actually worried I would really waken myself up too much and might not sleep so went off to bed. Visitors tonight so I will no doubt fall into bed in no state to sign on.hic

Def sounds like not enough fibre causing constipation - jacket potato or in my case I use dry porridge with sprinkling of all bran plus rasp straw black blueberries on top with a little milk plus pinch seeds few crushed walnuts and few dried cranberries pretty much ensures a "movement" daily.

You def can brag about your achievement in such a short time too

Well done Paul on your losses so far as others have said - you'll be fine just stick with it - mind you I'm naughty after weighin on Wednesdays and on Friday or saturday - by naughty I mean alcohol - but from then on eat and drink SW friendly ,exercise, and cut the carbs the day before and on...

Really hope you can do this all SW way with no need for band.

Hi - whizzing your Mojo straight back at ya - get moving girl - you can do it.

Brilliant - terrific news - well done

I had a coffee and Alpen light bar

Congratulations Wee Mummy

There is no doubt some foods lead to more cravings. I find if I stick to my porridge /berry breakfast and cut out bread for sandwiches I am more likely to stick to plan. I know SW encourage a little bit of what you fancy synned but for me my palate gets used to not having choc sweet stuff...

You are an absolute inspiration - so very well done

So sorry to hear of your loss Kelly. Giving up smoking at the moment is a huge step to take and some in Mental Health would tell you not to put more pressure on yourself presently. However congratulations for stopping now - you are very brave - and I so hope your young daughter will be rid...

I drink at least 2 lts water each day except for weigh-in day when I just take sips now and again and especially not much from afternoon until 7.00pm weigh-in

Hi I'm a newbe here to this forum. Like you all I eat light meals especially at lunch and have found that a 2/3 egg omelette keeps me satisfied until 7.00 pm weigh-in. I - since I started in mid April wear light cotton top and leggings and flipflops dread the really cold weather - i'll look...
