I would love to be in the 12s... at my heaviest I was 18.11 I am now 13.10 I am SOOOOOOO near but have basically stayed the same this year - health issues have prevented me from being able to exercise in the manner than I am used to so have decided to forgive myself for my static weight this...

yep that is the same for me exactly, I would be THRILLED to lose 5lbs by christmas :D

I too suffer with an underactive thyroid, and very regular blood tests (every 6 weeks) has shown that it swings from being 'normal' to extremely underactive, my dr says I am the only one on his books where an increase of just 2 tablets a week (50mg) will affect someone so much :eek: so he finds...

I lost 3 stone with WW 2010 would this have been the Discovery plan? because I can't remember!

Massive well done to you on your weight loss! :) have you spoke to your leader about how to use all of your points up? and presumably you have your weeklies to wade through too?! I think the lower 26 pp's will be for folk that are say, half a stone, away from their goal? who knows, all will...

wow 60 points per day, are you losing weight on that amount of points?

maybe the reduction to 26 pp's will be for those very near to their goal? I haven't done at all well on the PP plan as it is - I have lost 5.5LB in 16 weeks - well that was before a 1.5LB gain appeared out of nowhere last week - which means, in theory, I have lost 3.5LB in that time:eek: -...

masses of people complaining on the ww forum and homepage about not losing weight:sigh:

I have started this today :D going very well so far!

just read this on the communities page of the WW forum (from a member) The minimum number of points you will be allowed will decrease to 26pp rather than 29pp. The flex rule will also come back in to play. You can save a maximum of 3pp a day, but only in one day. E.g. if you ate 23pp today...

ahh ok, thank you for your help - I am thinking one slice is probably the way to go!

oh dear so 2 slices are 220 calories that means 220 syns?? surely not?! :eek: Maybe I'll go back to the WW plan.. lol

Please can anyone let me know how many syns one slice would be please. I have just got back from holiday and loved it! just had two slices to be honest and am hoping it's not THAT high! Thanks in advance.. am hoping that one slice would be a H extra.

I am not keen on image therapy, I like listening to everyone else's 'story' most of the time, but some weeks I am not wanting to share my week:sigh: and some weeks it goes on and on and on and on. I have told me SW woman how I feel and she said not a problem she will just bypass me if it...

Hi Kipy You will find ALL the information you need in this very comprehensive write up on the new plan.. http://www.minimins.com/weight-watchers/176311-introducing-new-pro-points-plan.html Good luck! :D

I managed to keep almost 6 stone off, I lost it gradually so hard to say how long I actually kept the whole amount off for - I started to lose weight in 2005. These last few months I have put on around 8LB due to the fact that I am unable to exercise like I used to as I had a heart op, but am...

I wanted Paddy to win - on Friday I saw Claire from Basingstoke crossing the road in front of me walking in the direction of Beechdown Health Club, it was only a glance but she looked waaaaaaaaaay smaller :D They were sent home for 15 weeks to continue their journey, tomorrow night should be...

oh dear how frustrating for you, what does your WW leader say about you not losing weight? :confused:

thank you - here it is.. per 100g Protein 6.0g Carbs of which sugars 3.1g Fat - 3.2g Fat of which saturates - 1.1g Fibre 4.4g Sodium 0.16g Meal weighted 400g I am asking for the Syn value but would like to know how to work out how some of the item would be 'free'. thanks again.

Does anyone know how many syns the halloumi cheese with a warm salad of beans on a Green and Extra Easy day please? Many thanks.

Surely you must get a good weight loss this week:D what does your SW leader say? I must admit to quite hating the image therapy bit when you feel that that week's weight loss sucks despite your very best efforts :( in fact last week I arrived 10 mins after the cut off time so I wouldn't have...

that will be 2 meals out of 21, you can do it:D

well done that is amazing! :D

hmmm have just read all of your thread and really don't see why you are not losing weight:confused: I am not either to be fair, but I am eating far more than you are so not sure what's going on really. I always have my 15 syns and didn't know that you shouldn't snack on anything other than...

All looks great to me :) I hope you get a good first week's weight loss, you should do :D

Hi Clareycakes could you tell me how many pp's I would be on please Age: 50 Gender: Female Height: 5ft 8 Weight: 13.13 Am really struggling with SW at the moment, i.e. not losing weight:confused: am half tempted to swap back to WW!

Hi, have tried to register today but when I hit submit, nothing happens :( can you help?

Hi everyone, I would love to join you in your walking the pounds off :D I have been a keen walker for the last 4 years and wear a pedometer every day - I use an OMRON II - fantastically easy to set up, very reliable and has a 7 day memory too. I am recovering from a heart op so am not able...

my goal weight is 12.11, I am 5ft 8", 50 years old and am not willing to go any lower as I fear I will look a lot older than I do now :eek: My son said to me, a woman at a certain age has to think 'face or waist'.. lol - I tend to agree with him. I am very fit and years of gym and walking...

This is a good idea of the size difference between a pound of muscle and a pound of fat..a huge difference! http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_iEUxKIdIjYs/TOlTl_SDZKI/AAAAAAAACZA/lWVBO8KQjo0/s320/Fat+vs+Muscle.jpg I am a huge advocate of exercising and slimming together, some weeks I have...

I mainly leave mine in the bathroom for my husband to maybe pop on and see that he's getting heavier.. lol!

I have used a pedometer for the last 4 years, would love to join in if anyone resurrects the idea again.

I was in hospital recently, just 2 days, when I weighed myself on the 3rd day after being admitted I had gone up 5.5LB:eek: - commonsense told me that it wasn't fat, working on the principle that you have have to eat IN EXCESS of 3,000 calories to put on one pound - fair enough I did eat the...

I am always amazed at how much 'punishment' the human body can take - whether it be exercising like they do in the Biggest Loser house or getting as heavy as some of them are - 546LB one of the contestants this year - the human body sure is a marvellous thing!

this programme is just so compelling to watch, and so is Bob:D

I also think that something to bear in mind is that you are probably not going to be the only who has complained. I complained about a WW consultant once she was just :eek: so rude and unfunny that when I spoke to the area manager she said that she had had several complaints about her and...

The woman I sat next to at SW yesterday, was kind of complaining that she had felt so full up all week and was worried about it, she got on the scales and she had lost 4.5LB :) it was her first week.

Hmmm how timely for me to read this, I have in fact tonight emailed the head office about my Consultant, but actually to praise her to the hilt! she is absolutely amazing :) The address I was given was a generic one and was told to just put customer services in the subject line and - feedback...

Wow just discovered the WW dessert yoghurts, how on earth can the SOOOOOOOO delicious strawberry tart one be free on EA?!?!?:eek: It actually tastes exactly like a strawberry tart! :gimi:

I have tickets for Maroon 5 in February and Take That in the Summer, my biggest music wish is that Adam Lambert returns to the UK and I get to see him again, I am a massive Adam Lambert fan :) Darren Hayes could be touring this year too :)

I have watched so many of the US and Australian Biggest Losers over the last couple years, I too find it extremely inspirational. Unfortunately the UK one is only 8 weeks, showing once a week - whereas because we are playing catch up with the US/AUS shows they are on EVERY night and the show...

I am going to make this tomorrow, any tips on the 'rolling up' of the sponge bit lol?

Wow have just read some of yours posts and you are very inspirational and well done:D Love the way you set out your menu for the day all colour coded, I am going to pinch that idea for sure! Thank you, this thread is a really good read. Sue

I have lost over 5 stone, I am 49 and my arms left a lot to be desired:( but with working out at the gym twice a week with a trainer, doing loads of work with dumbbells as well as the machines the difference is amazing:eek: I have now bought myself some dumbbells for home 3kg and 4kg and this...

oh dear:gen126: from what you've said you're doing everything right, I agree with you, have some major thyroid testing done. I only say this because you're situation is similar to mine, at the end of the day, if you have a 'normal' functioning body and your output (exercise) is greater than...

I went in to town yesterday to buy a Clinique mascara and as there was no actual Clinique assistant was totally hijacked from a Smashbox representative, she gave me a really lovely make-over - I did ask where her company put themselves with regard to other brands she said they put themselves...

I also use the Urban Decay one - does the job brilliantly!

Hi, I have had an underactive thyroid for 16 years now, and take thyroxine daily, in different doses depending on what the blood test says at the time.. I managed to lose 2.5 stone 5 years ago, maintained it pretty much until January 2009, then started WW, lost 3 stone (well half a pound...

Great start Adsnan! I hope I have similar this Wednesday at my first SW weigh in :)

Thank you for all the replies in this thread, I started SW last Wednesday and have opted for the Green plan, I haven't been hungry all week:) so am looking forward to the weigh in this week, I certainly feel like I shouldn't have lost weight the amount I have eaten, we'll see!:D
