Hey I'm pretty similar. Started WW about 6 weeks ago at 13st5 and am currently 12st8. Would love to get under 12st by christmas. :D I'm not big on excercise either but I have had a gym membership that I've been neglecting for about 6 months so I'm gradually getting into it again once or twice a...

I'm so glad there's other people on here that aren't keen on veg! :D I really struggled when I first started as most slimming world recipe ideas include tons of fruit and veg, and I always think that if you're dieting you don't want to be forcing yourself to eat something you don't like, as...

That's so weird, I came on to ask this very same question, as I'm going there to see Pink tomorrow too!!! :D The bbq place near Nemesis does loads of meat-related things and jacket potatoes, but with the meat, I'd have no idea of the syns, I'm sure it'll be high. We're actually having lunch at...

I don't go to a slimming group anymore and just weight at home on my own scales, but in the last week I've lost 4 pounds, more than I've ever lost before. :) I think I will try the alternating, and see how it makes me feel. I like the idea of sticking to one or another as I find it much easier...

Hi guys, I've always done green days since starting slimming world a few months ago, just because it's so much cheaper and easier for me to do, and I've always had okay losses when I follow it 100%. But this week I decided to try Red, and I've stuck to it for the last week and have had a really...

Eggs! I'm obsessed with making omelette and scrambled egg on toast at the moment, and I can use it for red AND green days so it's always useful.

I'm going it alone too now after going to the group for a few months. I kind of know how you feel. My consultant was really nice though, it's just our group was so huge (took over half an hour just to get signed in and weighed) that she just didn't have time to help everyone. I just didn't feel...

I've just made a mini omelette with chopped ham and herbs. Sprinkled some cheese on the top and grilled it. So nice. :D

I know how you feel! I've been going up and down with my weight since xmas and I'm exactly the same as I was then. I get into the habit of treating myself to something with 30 syns or so at the beginning of the week, and saying 'well, i just won't have many syns this week' then get to the...

I love having omelette right now, and it can work for any day you're doing. I'm doing red today and had cheese omelette with loads of chopped up ready cooked ham, filled me up nicely untill lunch. And didn't take long to make either. :D

At my old group, it was always someone who had lost 2 weeks in a row, and then they'd pick the highest weight loss from those people. I think it's so that people who just join, who can have massive weight losses their first week, can't get it that first week.

Really? That makes me feel a bit less paranoid then. Thanks. :p

I like to do mine with a sweet potato mash and veggies. :D Sausage caserole would be amazing though, never even thought of doing that on slimming world!

That's amazing to have done that, congratulations. :D Well done on raising all that money for a good cause too.

tools. :)

That's so sad. :( Although I can see how it would happen. You can't just send someone to lose weight and have personal trainers/meals made specifically for them and expect them to be able to do it themselves after so much help when they leave, expecially someone so young.

I love the concealer/foundations products, but when it comes to eyeshadow I'm just as happy with cheaper brands. :)

Bike!

Are they nice? I see them in Asda and they look too yum to only have that many syns!

Thanks for that! I don't think I've had a donut since starting SW, but will have to try those. :P

I'd stick with an iphone, best phone I've ever had personally. :D And I'll be getting the new one the day it's out. I'd look at swapping to a different provider, I think o2 and orange are the best for deals with iphones. You should be able to get the phone for free as long as you're paying a...

LOVE tattoos. :D I got my first one on my 18th birthday, it's a bird on the back of my shoulder, and it's got a long tail that trails down to the middle of my back. I'm planning on getting more in the future, but I want to wait untill I lose a bit more weight, as I'd hate to get them and have...

I think it's important to try, but I know if I'm doing EE I sometimes don't do it for breakfast. Just because by the time I've had my toast/weetabix or something, I'm full. And I think, why should I have some fruit/veg with this when I'm not actually hungry anymore?

There's a few muscle excercises on the wii fit for arms that I think work really well, and you don't even need the wii fit. Just take a bottle of water, whatever size you think you can manage without straining yourself, and lift it above your head, arm straight, and then bend your arm backwards...

When I do green days they're all I eat! They're just perfect for taking to work as a quick lunch, and as snacks. Cheesy ones are deffo my favourite, feel like it should be so much worse for me. And roast chicken. :P

You mentioned fanta and I know that's one of the higher ones at 10 calories, which I don't even think would count as half a syn so unless you drank cans of the stuff every day I wouldn't worry. :)

I don't know if it's sweetener exactly, but you mentioned Pepsi Max and I have read that low calorie drinks are bad for you as they can cause damage to your bones if you consume too much. Which scares me, I live off fanta zero at the moment!!

What do you have the wii board on? Because I have mine in my room, and it's quite thick carpet, so depending on where it is my weight can change dramatically, so I've just stopped listening to it! Slimming World scales are so much more reliable so I'd just use Wii Fit for the games, it's still...

1. What was the turning point that got you to try SW? Always needed to lose weight, but I'm going to Florida in October and want to lose enough weight to feel comfortable in a bikini when I go! 2. What's the biggest change you've made to your lifestyle since starting SW? Eating more fruit and...

I've been reading little bits here and there about how although fruit is free, once it's blended, it has to be counted as syns? I'm not sure why that would be, it's horrible for me though as I've always had a problem eating fruit, mostly because of the textures, and I'd be much happier blending...
