    So I cut down my free foods and . . .

    Thats exactly the same for me.I love cooking and experimenting,and I love healthy foods like lentils,beans,unusual vegetables etc,my only vice was chocolate and thats what made me put on weight.After keeping an eye on my calories this week I've lost 2lb,so I think this is definitely the way I...

    So I cut down my free foods and . . .

    I think this is what I need to do! I put my calories into a counter and I was over 2,000 for 5 out of 7 days.When you don't have much to lose I guess thats not really going to work! I will definitely try it this week,so fingers crossed,i hope your weight keeps coming off at this speed! :)

    Should I give up?

    mumtheshopper- thats what I think I am going to try next,I was probably consuming about 2,000 calories before slimming world so I think I might be eating a few too many now! Even if like you say it is in "free" food.Lets hope a bit of calorie counting works! Meli - Luckily I don't like fizzy...

    Should I give up?

    Well she said I can have all 15 if I want but another lady told me when she got down to only a stone to lose she was having 10,so I stuck to 10 all week. I'm just starting to wonder if maybe this is the weight I'm supposed to be? Before I started I only ever put on about 5 pounds at the most...

    Should I give up?

    Weight Gain Question

    I have had this problem aswell since november I have gained and put back on the same 4lbs.At first I blamed christmas but now its just getting annoying.My consultant and I had a talk and she said it may be because I am eating more now than when I started.Although they are all free foods on...

    Chewable/soluble vitamins?

    Might sound a bit of a slly question,but I take chewable calcium tablets and a soluble vitamin c and multivitamin,would I need to count these as syns? I'm wondering if the chewables ones may have something added to make them taste a bit nicer! (not that they really do) I had a quick look but...

    Well done for trying! I really want to start swimming but I don't think I have tried to actually swim lengths since swimming lessons as school! I'm worried I'll have forgotten how and have to be rescued by the lifeguard! lol

    Anyone else having slow losses -UPDATE WI RESULTS

    I understand that feeling :( In 9 weeks I have lost 4lb and put two of them back on! Can't work out why either! Its frustrating but I guess eventually it will come off even if its slow.Good luck x

    Anyone else ever considered....

    Same thing happened to a friend of mine,she took some after hardly eating at all and almost went to hospital she was in so much pain.She was up all night with stomach pains and it carried on for about 2 days! Not worth it!

    Cerezette?

    I started this pill last week and put on 1lb! I can't be certain that it is definitely this but I wouldn't be surprised! I came off the injection which is known for weight gain,so I hope this isn't worse! *sigh* contraception is a pain,it can ruin all your hard work! :(

    Should I give up?

    Thankyou! Well she did ask me this,infact its more likely the other way round,I never had a terrible diet before joining,my weakness is chocolate and is probably the only reason I have any extra weight to lose.Since joining I've been eating twice as much,everything good though,lots more fruit...

    Should I give up?

    I have wondered about that too,i did think it may be turning to muscle but even my personal trainer doesn't think I'm doing enough to be building that much muscle.Its very confusing! lol

    Green Tea

    I love green tea aswell! I love the one with cranberry or the one with pineapple. My favourite though is the tick tock rooibos green tea,its not a normal tea but is made from a shrub(sounds odd I know but tastes nice!) it has a much milder taste,with lots of antioxidants and its caffeine free...

    Vitamin Water

    Can't seem to find anything about vitamin water on the slimming world forums,and theres nothing on the slimming world site about it.I know its only water,but most of them have around 95 calories and some have sugar in so I assume they have syns....would really like to know as I used to drink...

    Contraceptive implant & uncontrollable weight gain

    I have the injection and was told with injections and implants,for most people weight issues stop after 2-3 months,so may be worth giving it a try for a bit.I would say it made me put on at least 6lbs,but I am (slowly) losing it again with diet.I guess it depends on your body though,maybe it...

    1.5lb for me :) 2lb in my first 2 weeks.Not a huge amount but I don't have much to lose I guess so I should expect it to be slow! I'm pleased with 1.5!

    I admit defeat!!!

    I have had the same problems as you! I only have about 18lbs to lose and have followed a slimming world diet perfectly for 3 weeks and all I have lost is 1lb! I'm going to stick with it,though I'm not sure what to change! More syns,less syns?! I also do a lot of running,work out with a trainer...
