I'm losing quite slowly too. I have done sw before with fab losses but this time around even my first weeks loss was less than 2lbs. That said, I've lost 1st 3.5 in 11 weeks so I'm still happy. I still have a long way to go and whilst it's sometimes a bit disheartening seeing how slow I'm going...

Could we have the bread pudding recipe please :)

Thanks Starlight, yep there are obviously quite a few where it is their first week but there seem to be lots of people regularly losing 4/5lbs. That kind of loss just as a one off would be so nice as I didn't have a great loss my first week. Fingers crossed, but at the end of the day as long...

Looks like you're doing great though NiaX and some good losses there, well done :) Fingers crossed I'm doing all I can, 1 good loss would be really nice!

Hi everyone. While lurking around here and on the facebook site I've seen some really really amazing losses. I have in the past had some pretty good losses myself but this time around its going fairly slowly. I've lost 9lb in 5 weeks, which don't get me wrong I am thrilled with - but with a...

Yes I should have sent it back, it really annoying as I really didn't want to be wasting syns on the butter. It was my mum's treat and I'm not really one for complaining though so I just made do. I'll have to get a bit more assertive :)

Ooh thanks Shrimpy. Hmm I'm not sure now - go for 5 or split the difference. I didn't have much of the veg at all so I think I'll go for 4 just to be on the safe side. Thanks very much :)

Thanks Nico, I'll count 2.5 and keep my fingers crossed it wasn't any more :)

Thanks for your reply. I know its not the end of the world but I've already had syns today and I have to stick very much to plan to lose weight so I was just hoping that someone could give me a rough estimate of what to allow. Thanks anyway :)

Hi I'm definitely in for this one please, I go on my first foreign holiday in 10 years on 1 August - so a good target to aim for. I'd like to lose between 10lb and 1 stone by then. Good luck everyone :)

Hi I don't know if anyone can help me please. I went out for a meal this evening and chose well - grilled gammon, egg, grilled tomatoes, new potatoes and veg. I asked for no butter so it should have been syn free other than the egg. When the veg arrived in a separate bowl and after i'd put...

Well done :) Its always a good idea to have a bit of a blow out before you start (well I always have anyway). Glad you're liking it. I think it has to be one of the most easy to follow and generous plans that there is, I think its great. I'm doing extra easy but I may mix it up a bit and...

Thank you, good luck with your journey too. How are you finding slimming world?

Although I've been dieting now (again) for the last 5 weeks, I've just decided that starting a diary might be a good way of helping me stay on the straight and narrow. I'm feeling very determined at the moment and my will power hasn't wavered at all, but I know what I'm like. I'm 36 now and...

A bacon, egg and mushroom sandwich followed by an apple! yum yum :)

Hi everyone, sorry but I have another question. I have been using the weight watchers app on my iphone to calculate and track points which I am finding a godsend. The question I have is about portion sizes. I have looked up things like, for example, pasta or couscous and it gives the PP in a...

Thanks sneeze! That's really helpful - thought the pizzas would be horrendous but I wasn't sure if the pasta would be too! Think I'll stick with the pasta :). I know it would be better to avoid but if it's too wet to go to a theme park we had planned the back up is cinema & pizza hut - for my...

Hi everyone. After only 3 days of starting Ww May have to go to pizza hit on Saturday. Can anyone recommend good choices PP wise? Thanks very much :)

Thank you both thats really helpful. I've started properly today and so far so good!

Hi everyone please could someone help me? I signed up for WW online last night and have been browsing through the website over the last couple of nights. I still don't know what I'm doing though! I don't know whether I just have brain drain from spending the last few days writing an...

That sounds very good value for points, I will have to try that one, thank you :)

Thanks everyone, glad to see there are some other ex-SW'ers about too. I'm going to spend the evening trying to work my way around the website so I can find out what I'm actually meant to be eating, and get myself a Tesco order done. Portion control sounds scary!! I too am of the "well its...

Hi everyone Although I've been an (inactive) Minimins member for a while I'm new to WW. I've signed up for online membership today after years and years and years of doing Slimming World on and off. I know SW inside out so to change to WW is going to be a bit strange, but as I'm still very...

Thanks for the quick replies. Some great ideas there to get me going :)

Hi everyone, I've not posted for ages after a long time being bad! But, I'm back on plan for the last week or so (lost 5lbs :D). I've been doing extra easy which suits me well, I love lots of pasta, rice and potato and meat. However, my BF is coming for the weekend next week and he is doing a...
