wow, you are doing well, keep up the good work. i am impressed with the mountain climbing and walking, i know i couldnt handle walking 15 miles in one day..................yet

uppppsssssss and hello gentlemen:D

hello ladies congratulations on all those losses. would it be ok if i joined the thursday weigh ins, as i am doing slimming world alone from home, as there is no groups in belgium.i started last thursday for real, with on and off attempts before that. and so far am sticking with it.

wow what a fantastic transformation. you might have not gotten this job, but you sure transformed your life. well done:talk017:

hmm i have loads of reasons if i think of it to be healthy to be around for my kids for years to come to look good in nice clothes to lay on a beach and not look like a stranded whale to like myself to get into new zealand and at the moment a driving force for me to show my husband...

nearly a year on and no progress has been made, since i tried to tackle to many things at the same time i have stumbled and stayed down. i am back to the weight i started at, am smoking again, and am miserable. now hubby is away for 7 months due to his job, and after the initial first few...

congratulations there is a difference, and you looking good! i bet you can feel the difference with those pounds gone too. what an incentive to keep going!

i have given myself a week or two off, as with not smoking i havent got controll over the munchies fully yet. i still follow plan as much as i can, but the munchies win. so i have decided rather than stressing over it i am taking some time off of weigh ins, and try to make the best. in a week or...

hun i feel for you, i really do. my husband came home one day in february and had sorted everything for leaving me, he was just kind enough to pop in from work to inform me of the pending split/divorce. my world was upside down and in pieces, i didnt know what to think say or do, i just seen 16...

that is really great, well done you! it feels good to "resist" and turn to foods we are alloud doesnt it. makes you feel like you achieved something. keep going:D

one of those days, am sitting here pndering why i am doing this. i am trying really hard to stick to plan, but when the cig cravings hit i find myself stuffing things, not just things i can have. so am wondering what on earth made me do both at the same time. and i know the answer I made me do...

this morning is the next appointment with the nurse. i wonder what she is gonna say, as i am gonna owe up to the few fags i had, no point in lying, and either way round i am proud of my progress so far, a few years, even weeks ago i could not have imagined doing fine without cigs. the cravings...

well done!!!!!!! congrats, you can be so proud of yourself, and i hope you enjoy every second of your holiday

Claire you look fantastic!!! congratulations. just WOW

today should be easy to stick to avoiding the munchies from not smoking, just come back from dentist, had a tooth pulled :eek: feeling rather sorry for myself now as i am terrified of dentists. stuck to the plan yesterday which was a green day. had fried potatoes, fried bacon pieces which got an...

had a rough weekend, the little one (he is 10) dislocated his right arm on friday evening, ended up in hospital had to be put under general anasthetic to pop the arm back in. with all the tears and emotions i ended up having 4 cigaretts, we had a bbq and friends round that evening, them smoking...

hey lgd you sound like what i used to be like before when i tried to give up. the family used to go and hide in the furtherst corners of the house, as i was just not capable of socialising, never mind saying please or thank you, was more grunting move or i bite your head off. i really dont know...

thank you very much i dont know how differnt it is, as i havent been a class member in a fair few years, but what i DO remember is that you had the syn calculator and i cant remember much else as an online member you have an online food diary like you would fill out for class, you have the fit...

i have quit now not so long ago, just on my second proper week, and have had a slip up. the way i looked at it myself was that once i lost all the weight or most of it there is no way on earth i would have quit as this is my second time battling the bulge. and i didnt stop smoking after the...

i have done it!!!!!!!!!!!!!:bliss: my first sw online weigh in with body optimise is next saturday, i am loving the site so far, between that and minimins i will have all the support and inspiration i could hope for :gen126:

wi in this morning and there was a + in front of the number, i put on 3.3lbs. but i knew this was coming with the munchies that i had after stopping smoking. i keep reminding myself that this is just a temp sabotage, and that in 2-3 weeks i will be past the worst, and thanks to sticking to sw as...

thank you for your kind replies. i am well excited to start the sw online tomorrow, reason for it being tomorrow is that my wi stays the same day. i wish it was saturday already :D

i have been slacking on the extra exercise the last two weeks, couldnt motivate myself. i think all my motivation went on stopping smoking. i have bought a proper dutch granny bike, no gears, and was daft enough to take my mutt out on it, 20min later i could have murdered the mutt, and shot the...

you are still doing well. dont go throwing the towel in. all of us have moments where temptation just wins, and dont i know it:rolleyes: it sure is not easy loosing weight, but i know you can do it!!

after now 5 weeks of going it alone, hubby has finally caved in. tomorrow i am going slimming world online. i have convinced him that there is handy tools on the website, and that he will benefit from them as well. as he is doing it with me, well he is benefiting from the sw cooking :D i am well...

i am only at the beginning of my journey yet again. and since i am giving up smoking i am planning on putting all the not spend money to the side on the quiet, and once i reach target to treat the family to a holiday of a life time. so its working hard from now on, and saving all i can to top up...

am on plan, but also have the munchies, darn not smoking....... but i know that once i will be past the worst with the not smoking i will stick to the plan minus the munchies, i do not expect any loss this wi tomorrow, but a gain. i know where it is coming from, so am not worried. am still...

hello there did you write down your food diary, every single bit on it? sometimes it is very little things with a big knock on effect. dont give up yet, as long as you dont feel ill doing it i would maybe sit down with the consultant and go through the food diary bit by bit. i am sure you can...

i am making some for snack in front of tv, since i made a little too much to be done soon i put some of the mix into little dishes and put them in oven, so now i have warm souffle type cakes to go with the ice cream, yum yum, and maybe if i feel greedy a spoon full or two of fruit salad, cant...

wishing you both good luck with your wi Lexie and Letty. let us know how you got on;)

a lot has happend in the last two weeks, nine days ago i gave up smoking, and am doing ok so far. i decided that i might as well add that to my get it sorted before new zealand list, as i know i would have been to worried about weight gain once i reach target. so i was eating a little more syns...

yesterday was a bad day, was supposed to have my appointment with the nurse, turns out the nurse was ill, and my prescription forgotten about, i couldnt get it till 5 pm. and the chemists were closed, i was so fuming about not having been informed by the receptionist maybe the day before so i...

welcome to the site, loads of support and threads to read here. congrats on the weight loss, keep up the good work

what a day yesterday was, everything that could have gone wrong went wrong, and i was stressed sad and furious at the same time. by the evening i had worked myself up so much that, once hubby was home i just said i need to go out, jumped in the car and drove to the shops. i could have murdered a...

so i followed the recipie now, and used fromage fraise instead, no problem, i added two extra yolks mind, and while i was gently heating it i crumbled in a little bit of an oxo cube, and added garlic granules. i then let it cool down once it was thick enough, put it in the fridge, and added...

i am gonna play with this recipie, and use fromage fraise instead of milk, should work too. will let you know how i got on

or crazy :D i am not doing to bad at the moment, the craving is not too bad, and i am not grabbing for foods to compensate.i do have my moments when i wonder why i am doing this, and if it was a good idea. but i also know that if i would have continued the weight loss and gotten to target i...

thank you johnie it is nice to know there is other people that have done it and get chatting to them. i am still wondering if the craving will ever stop, and how long it will take till the iresistable urge passes. we had a few drinks last night, and i did not have a smoke, oddly enough i didnt...

thank you for all your kind replies. and wow to all the new non smokers. m e craving is not too bad on the patches, and i have the inhaler for bad moments to top it up. i think most of it is my head as it has been a habit for the last 20 years, and i still find it hard to think of a life without...

plodding along with my patch, and not doing too bad, have used the inhaler 2-3 times as a back up when things got tough, but have not had a smoke, so am rather impressed with myself. i am also managing not to snack too much, and try to keep them low fat or just syn free. so i hope my tuesdays...

i love my george, have the one with grill on one side and the flat bit on the other, the eggs are lush of the george. ahhh i fancy some now instead of salmon pasta hmmmmm choices choices :D

thank you everyone for the encouragement, it helps for sure. you have done really well with the not smoking. as good as i know it is going to be for me, i cant seem to think of a picture without a cigarette at the moment, like having a bbq and a few bubblies and a cig, nope a bbq and some bubbly...

i had my appointment today, and got some patches, as well as the inhaler to help me through tough spots. i did smoke a few in the last 4 days, but only 16 cigarettes since my first post in 4 days, which is not bad going as i used to smoke 20 or more a day. since i put my patch on this morning i...

I have just had my last cigarette, i am determined to stop smoking along with my dieting. after 20 years of smoking it is more than time to give up. i have an appointment with the nurse on tuesday and will opt for patches i think. i have a tough weekend ahead of me of not smoking, i bought some...

wow, thanks i would have missed that, put it in my planner now to be recorded as i wont be up that early:D

last week was a bit of a tough week, i am coming up to star week, and had the munchies. i didnt do too bad, and apart from one day kept to my syns. i feel all bloated and just ewwww. i still managed to shift a pound, so am happy with that considering;) i didnt go back to the gym most of last...

thank you, he is my baby, has no common sense what so ever, but is really clever learning tricks:p

i lost the plot a little yesterday, havent managed to go shopping, so ran out of fruit and joghurts. as i am coming up to star week i have the munchies and feel all blahhh. but considering that i hardly used any of my syns since saturday the extra jaffa cakes i had should even out. am off...

i didnt make it back on friday as i had an unexpected job interview. but have been today, done 35 min on the tread mill, and came out beetroot red and happy so odd as i used to run the opposite direction before if gym was mentioned

thank you alibalibee!! so far so good, i survived without caving in last week and had a fab first loss. i also started going to the gym last week, 30 min on the tread mill. i have been again today, and am now indulging in a home made 0.1% fat strawberry joghurt ice cream. i am really glad i made...

hi i do pop on my scales in between, bad habbit i suppose. as long as what you see on your scales does not dis encourage you i cant see it being too much of a problem. just be prepared to have a different result at class. i have to use my scales as i am going it alone

so here it goes........... i am 38 have two kids and have been married since 16 years. i have been over weight on and off over the years, but over the last 4 reached my most ever! hubby and me want to immigrate to new zealand in just over 2 years, and new zealand immigration law states a healthy...

hello and good luck with your journey!!

thank you, i love philadelphia, will go and get some today while shopping

congratulations on the slimmer of the week, and i would mention it to the consultant either before or after class. just say you are concerned that people might be getting some syn free stuff wrong, and this would not help their weight loss.

congratulations, thats fantastic, keep up the good work!!!!

aw..............................i want one :D i love those, i bet you are well happy! now get filling it with all the nice healthy things.

weekends are certainly not easy, having said that i started my sw last saturday, as i had all the time i wanted to prep nice meals, as well as i think the key is to keep busy even on the weekend, and if you decide to slouch on the settee maybe prepare yourself a plate full of cut up veg and...

years ago the first time i done slimming world i weight in at a bit over 14 stone, i joined in september, and by february the following year i had nearly shifted 4 stone. all i did was stick to the plan 101%, no alcohol, syns only the amount i was alloud, i weight all my healthy extra, even...

so hubby dragged me kicking and screaming to the gym on camp today:eek: stood me on the tread mill and told me how to turn it on and set it all up for me, he then got onto the mill next to mine, and we walked on it at a pace that didnt give me a heart attack together. was kinda nice, even though...

it sure is not easy resisting all the nice stuff in the kitchen, but so far am doing it! i made the mistake of going shopping after work, hungry.............. but i managed to resist the fresh doughnuts and other goodies. i did buy myself a big bar of chocolate though and broke it up into little...
