actually i looked at the syn thread you mentioned and i had the chicken and mushroom pasta n sauce from batchellors and thats free on green so i dont really know why i maintained. seems i might have to eat more, not that im complaining :-)

i think i would have had the shakes on what you were eating daily. i cant comment on how well the plan works as if you see from a post i have just put on, ive maintained in first 2 weeks but i lost 64.5lbs with ww then had my daughter and struggled to get back to my goal weight again but i found...

im 10st12 and would like to be 10st, which is okay as im 5ft5". i just thought she didnt want to let people know that id stayed the same 2 weeks in a row. but after years of counting points and calories its lovely to just eat 'normal' food if that makes sense. im still having treats with my syns...

thanks for the reply. there was a woman who lost 4.4lbs in 2nd week who joined same time as me, she was boasting how she had eaten and drank loads at the weekend, still had 15syns a day and lost 4.5lbs. i was thinking 'how the hell did you do that?' i have 10syns and have stuck to the plan to...

got weighed again on wed night and maintained both weeks, actually she didnt mention my name in the group and spoke to me at the end, maybe she didnt want to advertise that ive not lost weight?. she cant see anything in my food diary thats wrong. i followed extra easy for 5 days then did a green...

thanks girls, its my weigh in tomorrow so will see how i go. ive been filling in food diary faithfully. i will keep my fingers crossed. wasnt sure if its cos im eating more pasta and potatoes than im used to but then im not eating any processed foods either like i was before and im hardly eating...

i used to follow weight watchers before i joined sw but weight loss was really slow. do you think its the changeover in eating plans?

hi, i followed a combination of ee, red and green days last week, wrote everything down, worked out syns and had 10 a day and i got weighed last wed and stayed the same! the C said well done for staying but i said that if i could eat what ive eaten and my weight stays the same then id be happy...

thanks for your help everyone, its easier to think of 1/3rd of the meal having superfree foods rather than the plate! had a green day today and made mushy pea curry with rice which looks horrible but tastes lovely! joanne

hi i joined sw last night and i think ive got my head round it. am trying extra easy but then ive read about 1/3rd plate having super free foods but does that have to be physically 1/3rd of the plate or can the superfree foods be mixed in with the free foods? i had cold tuna pasta salad for my...

hi, it works on the basis of 'checks' 1 check = 25cals. i get 45checks a day plus 1/2pint of skimmed milk or 2 low cal yoghurts and 2 pieces of fruit a day on top. most veg is free. the plan is called PEP and theres lots of recipes to choose from, its easy to follow. ive lost 4.5lbs in 3 weeks...

thats really good!! i bet you are over the moon with that fab weight loss. i really like the ss plan, no working out 'points', just dividing things by 25 to get the checks. do u go to a class?? im cheating slightly as im going to ww weekly but never really liked the new plan and have struggled...

hi i live in the north east but i started doing ss myself at home, we used to have a class near me then it closed. im using a copy of 'pep plus' and trying to get a copy of 'pep complete' off ebay. i only had 11lbs left to lose after having my daughter 4yrs ago and have lost 3lbs of that with...

did wk5d1 tonight, and somehow i managed those 3 x 5min runs! i even recovered earlier after the second 5min run and only walked for 2mins instead of 3. was going to see how far i could run on the final 5min run but only managed an extra 20seconds. i do day2 on sat or sun thats 2 x 8min runs...

hi sorry to jump in but im doing c25k and did wk4d3 yesterday. couldnt even manage the 60s runs in week1 but now i seem better at the longer runs than the shorter runs. i get no pain after running apart from the first run in week 1 but yesterday had to do more stretching before and after running...

i have got it, i love the eye of the tiger and cotton eye joe, if u fancy an exercise one try ea active with the resistance bands and the leg strap it has a 4 week challenge. or do what i do and spend the past 3 days painting my stairs and kitchen, i feel like ive done a step aerobics class by...

u could still have a decent size jacket potato as one of your HE?

duhhhhhh, thank you allie. how does everyone get those slimming world awards like half a stone, stone award etc? ive seen loads of you with them?

im joanne, im just new and stumbled on this site a few days ago. i joined sw almost 2 weeks ago after not doing very well at ww and i lost 1lb in first week which was good cos i thought id put on loads after the amount ive eaten!! weigh in tomorrow night

hi snow, i joined sw a week past thurs after doing ww and i was panicking when i got weighed last week for the first weigh in as id eaten loads and id lost 1/2 a lb which isnt a massive weight loss for the first week but its a big change from ww. i go back for the next weigh in tomorrow night so...

i only joined last week and i didnt realise that tinned pineapple was syned until i had 6 rings with a muller light and then checked my book and realised that id just had 6 syns!!
