I agree with patchwork puss you definately need the books. Have done SW before but bought a set on ebay last year. Combined with this site I followed the new EE plan and lost 24 lb. The new plan is my favourite with an odd green day when I want extra cheese but could not have done it without...

That's a great loss phoenix _ girl good luck achieving your target you seem to be well on track.

I vary mine aswell fruit and yogurt,Weetabix, omelette & beans or full english.

Great loss well done.

Think I'm your twin lol. Exactly the same got down to 12.0 last year then seemed to stick so gradually came off plan and put on 7lb plus another 4lb at xmas. Back on plan last Monday and the 4lb gain is gone. Sticking to EE as it worked last year and fits in easy with family meals but if I do...

Hi Ginzeh and welcome to slimming world. Read your books, not got new ones but no carbs on the EESP. If you want carbs then you need to follow EE. I follow EE and had good weight losses last year but the losses you want might be achievable quicker using EESP There's a EESP thread on a sticky...

Hi all lost 4 lbs this week☺ That's my Xmas gain all gone Still have 7lb to loose to get back to my lowest 2014 weight Still feeling very positive so going for 2 lb this week.

Friday for me. Only started Monday so not a full week on plan but happy just to be on track. Sookie you done the right thing by not waiting to start every good day counts even if you loosen up when you're away.

Hi Hannah take today as a fresh start. We all do it not that the plan doesn't work just so easy to get back in bad habits. I get lazy when not on plan but am really enjoying my food this week which makes me think why do I stop. You lost it before so you can do it again. Good luck tonight.

I follow ee have researched the new plan (doing it from home) but maybe will use it if I start sticking. Never found the need to do the old success express which sp seems to have replaced so will stick with ee which I love. Good luck all

Count me in been off plan for 3 months and bad habits plus Xmas has seen me gain 11 lb need to get that off before I can tackle anymore. What plan do you follow?

Been on a break aswell but got to weigh friday {have been maintaining} and restart feel ready to push for the next stone. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

you've made the first step that's a good start. starting afresh tomorrow after a couple of weeks off plan. school hols fin today so back to normal routine.

STS for August not bad though with a two week break. Come on Sept need some losses now. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Welcome I dreaded my first weigh in after a long time away but you have to start somewhere and it does come off quickly to start. I think if i didn't start when i did where would i be now. Good luck on your journey. Deb 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Had a complete week off plan. OMG think i was ok to start with still cooking healthy meals till about thurs then used it as an excuse to eat choc bisc cakes (ate 3 doughnuts and a muffin yesterday). Think that made me stop and think was it worth it did i really enjoy it. Definately not! Back to...

STS for two weeks and have been on plan. Got this week off work so out and about with the family. Decided not to weigh for two weeks take the pressure of the numbers on the scales ruling my life. Have become a serial weigher. Hope to at least STS and then be ready to fire on all cylinders. Hope...

Stayed the same for two weeks. Off work next week so putting the scales away have become a serial weigher. Next weigh in fri 29th. The numbers on the scales are putting pressure on me and need to let them go for a couple of weeks. Not aiming to go off plan on my week off but may need an extra...

Good to see you are back in the swing. I need sauce with my salad tend to use hellmans lighter than light mayo 2 tbls is only 1 syn. On offer at asda for £1.50 at the moment. Good that you log and count your sauces they can add up otherwise. Deb 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Hope you managed to overcome your temptation. Loosing weight has got to be one of the hardest things i have ever done even giving up smoking and alcohol was easy compared to this. Yes i've done it before and am trying to make life changes so i keep it off but we have good days and bad days...

not sure if there are any offers on but why not read up on here first till you are ready to start. Sure the next month will be hectic for you and might be worth waiting to join when you can get your full moneys worth. Have a look at the sub forum for SW and pregnancy sure you will find lots of...

july mag page 28. if you need the recipe i can post it.

Used mine for the sticky pork with noodles from the mag. My oh loved it aswell. Just cut them up in strips. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Started april with my daughter (21) which was her first diet and new to slimming world. Took her a couple of weeks to get her head around it but now 2 stone lighter has adapted the plan to her lifestyle. The things that kept her going at first were alpen lights choc/fudge, pink & whites...

Even if you dont like photos ( me neither) why not take some before photos now and everytime you loose a stone take a new one. If you can see the difference might keep the motivation going. I didn't take any specific ones but have some from xmas ect i can compare with and can see the difference...

well done on overcoming the craving. It makes you feel so good when you can do that. i have just bought some smaller clothes (on a budjet so can't afford too many) and only now are people starting to ask have you lost weight. Wearing the same clothes sometimes hides the loss. My trousers are...

Hi Gav you done so well in you're first week sure it will be off again soon. I know what you mean about time off i'm home for two weeks so trying hard not to blow it. Next week will be worse when hubby is home and we go out with the youngest(aged 10) on some day trips. have meal planned this...

Hi all Hope everyone has had a good week. No loss for me sts but sure it will show next week. Think i might have got to a sticky point so will just keep going (prod remember its for life) the weight will go when its ready. Did go to my first zumba class last night which was fun. Not sure i kept...

Sure it will show next week just don't let it be an issue and knock you off plan. Our bodies work in mysterious ways remember. Had a 2lb gain one week for no reason then lost 5lb the next. Good luck. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Going to start measuring so i can see the inches if not pounds. Just became a nanny so want to be a slim and fit one not ran round after little ones for a while. love your pics BCP really inspiring (cant see them when i use the app). just made a bread pudding now to hide it before OH eats...

Hi all When i started in april my size 16's were fit to burst. They now feel a bit loose which is nice. Don't drink alcohol either which helps as i like to eat my syns not drink them. Definately need cake on your birthday. Do you tally your syns daily or weekly? 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Putting that in my diary will take OH so can get 2 lots. Will need fruit and veg again by then. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Damm 2lb on and no real reason why. Knew it was lingering have been on the scales everyday this week! Not going to dwell on it have logged it and it's done now to move on. Things to do this week: 1. Do not weigh till fri. 2. Write down what i eat just in case doing it my head i'm kidding...

hope you can draw a line under it and get back on plan. sometimes one bad choice spirals and its hard to get a grip. lending you my line __________________________________________ good luck.

Hi Stevie can't believe how much you can miss in a week. Started my journey in April and followed your old diary which gave me lots of ideals even though you have been up and down.

Hi janie without boring you all had a nightmare w/end spending sat night at a&e with my youngest (bad eye) ended up at mcdonalds at 4.30a.m. Sunday had a buffet to prepare for my dad after only 2 hours sleep followed by a trip to eye hospital for emergency check up then off to my son's who had...

2lb off 12.9 today so pleased. Would love to see 12.7 next week getting me half way. Really motivated at the moment and the weather really helps. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Thats fine up to you which hex b you want. Just make sure they are both green hex's or red hex's depending on what plan you are following that day 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Thats not bad now draw that line and back to plan. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Well done on your loss. Got here last week and am determined not to see 13st ever again aswell. Really gives you a boost to drop a stone bracket makes you want to get as far away from the danger of going back to it. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Do you like tinned tomatoes? I drain mine from the juice and mix the chopped toms with the beans then heat them up together. Not much help if you don't like toms at all though. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Think thats a good way to look at it. Weigh tomorrow then draw a line under it and start again. 1lb at a time as long as it takes.

Hi everyone lost 3lb making me 12.11 so just like to say hello. Think i might be here a while but want to loose 2lb next week and get far away from that 13.

Batchelors pasta 'n' sauce are also nice cold. Plenty of fruit cut up ready to munch and jellies. If you need a sandwich make your own using your hex b.

Same here can't eat fish & chips or KFC anymore gives me a bad belly.

I keep this on my phone to remind me what a pound of fat looks like. Keep at it might show next week.

I don't go to class and find this site amazing for support and info. Good luck.

I have worked nights for 20 years and know where you are coming from. I now work 3 nights and 2 days and the only way it works is to plan and prepare. Always find it easier when i'm working than at home i think the routine helps. When you go back to work allow yourself time to prepare something...

Love your pics always nice to see what everyone else is eating. 2lb off for me yesterday so going for it this week another 2lb would give me my first stone and see me drop into the next stone bracket.

Am making this tomorrow looks yummy and wow 6 syns

Great loss our bodies work in funny ways. I had a one pound gain last week but not letting it bother me just cant wait to weigh fri and see it gone.

Got it today so wish it was more regular. just flicking through i can see some recipes i want to try. Find variety keeps me so motivated used to eat a lot of the same meals on the old plans which is why i use to get bored and give up. Love EE.

Think mine started at 12 can remember giving up sugar then anyway. always allow a treat on fridays my weigh day so had my galaxy choc which i've been chipping away at since easter. That means i need to stay focused for the weekend. Always plan my evening meals for the week which helps me be...

just finished my first week and have done EE all week. I couldn't believe how much food i ate but lost 5lb. Good luck later. A tip for a sweet treat (and saves you using your milk as hea) is magic porridge tried it last night in work (i work nights) and is now on my fav list of food.

All superfree foods are marked with a star in the EE free food pages and also listed in the food optimising book under superfree foods. Some examples are most fruit, most veg, eggs and quorn. If you have a ready meal best to make sure you have it with plenty of salad or veg. Hope this helps.
