Does anyone have one please? xx :D

Hope everyone is still doing well :D

Well done :)

So happy :)

Yeah its in a box. Just had some, its lovely

Asda have it, I just bought 2 packs x

I got 2 pairs of jeans about 4 months ago, both a 16 from the same shop. One pair fitted fine....they other I couldn't get on (figure that out?!) but I'm wearing them today!!! Wooohoooooo :D :D :D

Planning on having 2 (9 syns!! :eek:) filled with salad and chicken. Is there anything I can coat the chicken in to make it more interesting? Thanks x

Can I only buy it at group? I'm shopping tomorrow and wondered if I could get any then instead. Or something of a similar syn value?

Mine said they are a HEb plus 2 syns as well x

After worrying all week that I hadn't lost, due to weighing myself every 30 seconds, I came away with a 2 lb loss today!!

Nop hun, not for another week and half x

Everything is low fat as per slimming world rules. No idea on calories at all. A typical day would be.. Breakfast... 28g fruit and fibre with semi skimmed milk Lunch...pasta or rice salad Dinner... Grilled chicken, couple of boiled potatoes, veg. Snacks will be Activia yoghurts, fruit or...

Hi, yes, all below 5% fat, thats why I don't understand whats going wrong :( lol

I drink a pint before each meal. Been eating low fat things, grilled chicken and veg, jacket potato and beans, slimming world curries, low fat chilli con carne etc x

I've taken a weeks worth of Xenical (not at once lol) and I've lost nothing! I'm also doing slimming world.

Thanks everyone. I think I'm going to try red/green days and see if that works. It seems quite confusing though :/

I've not measured yet. Starting tomorrow x

Sorry the 2nd weigh in was the week before I think :/ I remember feeling bloated that week haha

The weeks I've been on my period are the gain weeks, both 0.5 each time. I've not really thought about ovulation, but that would tie in with last weeks weigh in I think :/

Oh I'm not going to eat rubbish, I just don't understand why I seem to be losing less and less every week, and now a poss gain, even though I'm still on plan properly. I don't know whether to try red/green days. They scare me a bit, they seem so complicated compared to extra easy... prob why...

Weigh in is wednesday. I always have 1/3 if not more superfree x

Hi, yeah I have 10 syns a day, and a pint of water before each meal.

I've been on plan for 10 weeks now. I have lost 16lbs, but still have a hell of a lot more to lose. I've stuck to plan religiously for the past 2 weeks. Last week I had a loss of 0.5 lbs, and I weighed myself this morning (my scales are spot on with the SW ones), and I've gained 2lbs!! I just...

I'm doing both :) feel free to pm me if you have any questions :)

I had weetabix minis with a scan bran............just realised it says to have with a ryvita.... Does it matter?

I've been on slimming world for about the same time as you and my losses have also slowed down. I've started swapping my fruit snacks for veg snacks now to see if that helps. I always get a gain when I'm due on, or on my period too :)

Thank Circes :)

I don't personally but the 2 girls I go with do. Usually it's a roll from the bakery covered in mayo, a chinese that night, or biscuits, chocolate etc . I don't see the point in sticking to plan all week to get a good result, to potentially **** it all up for the sake of a snickers bar :D

Can I make Aloo Gobi and mango glazed chicken and freeze it? Or if not, how long will it keep in the fridge?

I haven't been varying as much as I used to, but have planned meals for next week (starting tomorrow) so will see how it goes x

Title should ready wafer thin not wafer free haha. Is that the same for asda wafer thin chicken/ham etc too? I've looked on the SW site but the syn value isn't listed x

Thanks hun. Don't know why I didn't think of peppers - I love them!

Give me some tips? Mine comes to £120ish for 2 adults and 2 young kids :/ shopping at Asda

Just to see if it'll help. I plan on cutting up a loads of carrot sticks, cucumber, celery and cherry tomatoes and sticking them in the fridge so I can nibble whenever. How long will it keep? And does anyone have any other veg suggestions that I can prepare in advance?

:-)

anyone? :)

All is fine now, except I don't really think the tablets are working :/ I've had non of the side effects (I'm sure you can work out which) and I'm thinking, as I'm following a low fat diet anyway, there isn't much for the xenical to actually do? :/

the sort in the chilled section in the packet....for sandwiches etc...is this free?

Ahh thank you!

My losses have slowed, so I thought I'd do a diary for a couple of days, to see if anyone can spot anything I could improve on! I use my HEA on milk every day. Yesterday Brekkie Bacon, mushrooms and beans on 3 slices WW brown danish (HEB) Snack Raspberry Activia Lunch Rice with mushrooms...

Fruit is also superfree though?

To be honest I snack through boredom more than hunger. I've just downloaded a Davina workout dvd so will be doing that too (or trying) and see if that helps a bit lol x

My meals are free and superfree, I snack on superfree :)

I tried fishy week once, but it was torture haha, I'm not a huge fish fan :)

For the past 3 weeks I've averaged 1lb a week. How do I kickstart it again? I still have a lot to lose and wasnt expecting it to slow down this quickly :/ I eat fruit constantly!

Private : 35 or under NHS : 30 or under Egg share : 30 or under

I'm sharing my eggs and having IVF so I need to lose weight so my BMI drops :)

How much water are we meant to drink? I drink mostly tea/coffee/sugar free drinks. My doctor just weighed me, and gave me the prescription, so had no advise from her at all lol

I'm on day 3 of xenical and I'm also following slimming world. I was worried about the gross side effects...but I'm having the opposite. I'm getting enough fibre etc and stated in my slimming world book, but nothing seems to be happening :/ :(

Thanks everyone, I'm going to stick to it. This is the only 'diet' that I've stuck to EVER!! And I've never lost more than a few lbs before, so overall I'm still smiling lol :D

Just had weigh in....... 0.5lb loss. I'm gutted. I've stuck to plan 100%, it's no where near * week, so I don't know where I've gone wrong :( It's the lowest loss I've ever had :( :cry:

I'm asking my other half for a cross trainer for Christmas haha, can't wait to see his face!

Oh wow, I love these lol, thanks ladies :)

Are they an HEb?!

I don't use oil now just fry light...will that be ok? As for eggs.....I may have to suffer the consequences lol

Yes, I've been on SW for 8 weeks almost, and started with Xenical today.

I keep reading about the rules.... what are they?! I'm following sw so everything I eat is pretty healthy and low fat... confused.com

There is, I saw it earlier lol

I'm already a mum lol, I'm sharing my eggs so someone else can use them and be a mum :) I stick to SW quite well, have only gained 0.5lbs twice since starting. I'm hoping the xenical will boost my losses a little bit.

How much were you losing when taking them?

Looks like I'll be getting the Davina dvd then lol. I feel such a fool doing them though :/

I got Jasmine, who is 6, a skipping rope. She kept tripping so I decided to show her what to do....2 skips later and Jasmine is on the floor in a fit of laughter..... 'mummy, your bum wobbles when you skip'... Nice!!!! LOL

LMAO! That made me giggle! Well done though!

I've just been prescribed xenical by my doctor. I went to see her regarding the egg share programme and she thinks these may help me to get my bmi down quicker. Has anyone followed slimming world while taking these?

Hi ladies :) I've been on slimming world for 8 weeks almost, and have just picked up my prescription for xenical. I follow extra easy so will keep doing that and see how I go....after reading the after effects I'm a little scared lmao :/

Ahhhhhh!!!!!! I just read it...the syn value I worked out was for the pack not made up..... it only gives the calories, sugars etc for the made up values.... not even enough for me to calculate it lol :(

No it's not that one, I've worked it out on the syns calculator for the pack, do I just 1/4 the syns if I have 1/4?

Yay! Well done! I can't wait til I drop a size! I have a brand new pair of jeans in a 16 upstairs and try them on once a month to see if they fit yet lol :)

Ahhh thank you :) Don't feel confident enough to go swimming yet, but I can't wait. I absolutely love swimming!

Anyone know the value of this? the pack is 50 grams and serves 4

How can I get rid of my flabby arms? I have no clue when it comes to exercise :/

I struggle at weekends too, think it's because I go shopping on saturday morning and eye up all the googdies haha. I'm saving my syns tonight for a chinese, beef and mushroom with boiled rice...omnomnom :) oh and 2 prawn toasts lol

I have just bought some porridge oats for the 1st time, and really don't fancy eating it plain lol. What can I add to give it some flavour, but not using any syns? Am I right thinking porridge can be used as my HEb?

Thank yoooooooooooou :) I need to get to 14st, that seems like it's never going to happen lol

How much in weight do I need to lose to get my BMI 30 or less? Wight is on my ticker below, and I'm 5'7 if that helps :/

Well done! I wouls actually kill for a take away at the moment. Kebabs, pizza, garlic bread with cheese, the lot! I'm craving everything at the mo!

I really like the fact that I can have 2 as my healthy extra b, but I'm not too fond of the price tag haha :P Are there any own brand ones that I can still have 2 of?

7am..... Coffee (lots of!) 9am..... Breakfast 11am..... Snack 130pm..... Lunch 330pm..... Snack 6pm.... Dinner Then I snack on fruit til around 9pm.... AND by writing this down I have realised I never stop eating haha. Thank god for free and superfree!

Planning on buying one next week as I'm getting a bit bored of jacket potatoes and rice haha :) I'm following extra easy :)

Chicken tikka for me. Got a recipe from a friend and it's completely free :) not usre if it will be edible though haha :)

I just got back from weigh in..............and I got slimmer of the month :D I was expecting a rubbish weigh in too after the scales were faulty last week. They reset them to the week previous, and I lost 2.5lbs :)

At the mo I'm having bacon, egg and mushroom for breakfast, egg and bacon sarnie, or 2 weetabix, lunch is rice with veg thrown in, egg rice, or tuna pasta. Sometimes a jacket potato instead. I was a huge fan of mugshots but now can't stand to even look at them lol!!

I need my BMI down to below 30 so I can take donate my eggs and have IVF. I'm currently at 35.1 and I don't think it'll be coming down any this week!! I just want to give up and eat crap. I'm eating the same things day in, day out at the mo and reaaaaally struggling for breakfast lunch ideas :(

This weekend I have been sooooo bad :( I had some Galaxy yesterday (synned) but then, like a fool, made the kids some cupcakes......and had 3 myself! :sigh: :booboo:

No she didn't say. I can't make the other weigh in so will just have to wait until next week and pray it doesn't show as a gain :/

They were the same scales as always.....received a text from the consultant at 5pm saying the scales were faulty, and we were more than welcome to go up for the evening meeting to be re weighed :/ I'm slightly annoyed, 1 cos now I have no clue what my real loss/gain was, and 2, I've paid £5 for...

Yep jacket potato and tuna would be fine. I love extra easy, I never stop eating haha :) The cottage pie is really nice btw :)

At group this week there were huge losses, from people who openly admitted not following plan. I lost 5.5, my friend who had been on holiday for 2 weeks lost 3, there were losses of 6 and 7lbs too! We were all quite shocked and wondered if there could be a fault with the scales/. Or they are not...

I had a chicken rogan josh last night.........my bf spent the day avoiding me cos I smelt so bad of garlic haha, was nice though!!

This is what I'm dreading and seriously considering surgery when I'm at target. After having 2 children I had the floppy, flappy belly drooping down, I'm losing and it is getting smaller (I think) but I don't think I'm ever going to have a stomach like a pussycat doll lol! It's horrid! It...

Too start with I didn't use many syns (2-4 per day) and lost 2lbs at my first weigh in. On * week I gained, even though I'd stuck to plan. The week after * week I lost 7lbs lol :)

Activia Fat free snackpots, 20p each, all varieties, at ASDA!! :) Thought I'd let you all know!

I want to lose 2st :)

i only bought them cos 1) they were only a tenner lol, and 2) i had a carvery yesterday followed by ice cream n choc fudge cake, and in asda today i was soooooooooo tempted by sausage rolls, bread, cakes....everything i can't have, but i dont know why! i want to lose weight so bad but the past 2...

and according to them (when in the bathroom) I've gained 8lbs since wednesday..(is that even possible?!) however in the living room, I've gained 3lbs....soooooooooo was a complete waste of money, and now I have no idea if I've lost/gained lol. Now I know why we ain't supposed to weigh ourselves!

Went to weigh in this morning and I've gained 0.5. The only time I wasn't 100% was having a yorkshire pud, and some stuffing at a carvery last week, but even then I went without syns the next day to make up for it. I'm so annoyed!!:mad:

East Midlands.....P&G Lock don't do them anymore, but there is one in Nuncargate...Scott Barlows. I got some sausages and burgers at the weekend, both syn free and they are soooo nice!

Done it now :)

Oh rubbish it didnt work.....click my journey, then set p.a.t.... :)

Lifeline Online - log on.

It took me a while to find it, I'll have a look and send you the link to update :)

Options drinks are 2 syns, and Cadburys Light choc mousses are 3 syns and really nice :)

I have the SOTW one showing but I only have the option to change it, not to add more. I've tried pasting the url but it doesnt show the picture :(

How do you get all your stickers to show? I had to add mine in the picture part of the signiture but cant have more than one :/

I've already chosen my dress, venue, colours, cake............AND i'M NOT BLOODY ENGAGED YET! haha, I have issues lol! :D

Well I think it's down to two things, as I didn't do anything different to normal. The week before where I gained 0.5 was my * week, so I'm guessing that I did actually lose some then, but being * week it didn't show (make sense?) and then the night before the 7lb loss weigh in, I was sick twice...

Where's your diary? I eat almost constantly so don't worry too much :)

ive done one, but it wont let me do anymore? I copy the link and paste it, but i have no pic still, or it says its too long?!

I'll hit target in April! That's not long really is it?! lol. Can't see it happening though with Christmas stuck bang in the middle, but still made me smile :D

4 syns each x

Toby ones are 17.5 per 100 grams :O No more toby for me then ROFL :/

I've only ever done EE. An example for me would be..... Breakfast: egg, bacon mushroom sandwich (using bread as HEB) Lunch: fried rice with mushrooms, spring onion, peppers, maybe egg to make it egg fried rice. Dinner: fish with sw chips and mushy peas. Snacks are fruit and maybe an activia...

Eeeeeeeeeeek! I'll do a syn free day tomorrow, see if that helps lol!!

I had good intentions, - until I saw the yorkshire puddings.... :O I only had one, bit of gravy, 2 roast potatoes and a tiny bit of stuffing, but have no idea of the syn values. I've not used any syns at all today as I was saving them for this haha. Even skipped dessert and watched everyone else...

With a 7lb loss :O :D

I've just got back from my first * week weigh in and I gained 1/2lb. Not too worried though. I've stuck to plan almost 100% (had a choc ice cream that I couldn't syn) so I'm just putting the gain down to mother nature being a b&tch lol x

Nooooooooooooooooooooo, lol! I put myself through the hell of fishy week too!

Its * week (does it make a difference to weigh in? I feel 10ton heavier than last week lol)

Ahhh thank you :)

pllllllllllllllease :)

It was all home made ice cream from a parlour, Vanilla Ice Cream Parlour, Bridlington It was all in the tubs so I can't even syn it (although I think I'd go into shock if I did lol)

Hope not, I did save all my syns for it, but it must have been waaaaaaaaaay over lol. I've stuck to plan 100% apart from that, and I'm half way through fishy week so I'm hoping that'll help too lol x

Now :)

We went to the beach, I was really good and took a picnic, all free/superfree.......... THEN HAD THE BIGGEST, MOST CALORIFIC CHOC ICE CREAM IN THE WORLD!!! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

I needed some for a pasta bake for tonight, tried tesco and asda but could only find 90% fat free so I didnt get any. Can I leave it out, or substitute it with something else?

I'm having a fish week....on a budget! Any ideas?! I can see me eating plain cod every night for a week at this rate lol. I only really like cod, prawns (gotta be on their own :/) and tuna :/

Pizza topped chicken - Slimming World recipes

Only just read this ladies :) Will post the recipe in a sec, it was lovely!

:/ I've always worn my full length ones :/

Irn Bru and coke chicken?! Explain ladies please lol!

I've followed EE from day one.....cos I can't get my head around red/green :/

Thanks everyone :) hoping to do even better next week......fishy week kicks off on saturday lol :)

I lost 3lbs and got slimmer of the week :) :D

I've resisted temptation and had a mullerlight....but it doesn't even come close. I'll just let my oh eat them and turn into a fatty lmao ;)

I'm bang in the middle of baking with the kids. Cadburys cookies and muffins..... the muffins are 17syns each, the cookies 7.5! I WANT A MUFFIN SOOOOOOOOOOO BAD!!! They smell so good lol!:mad::eek:

Hehe, everything happens for a reason ;)

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh too exciting for words!!!!! Make sure you update when you test lol!!

Was really nice! Will def be making again, after investing in some chilli flakes or gloves!

Hmmmm I did carrots and courgette. The courgette went all watery and gross lol. Carrots were good though! Love the 'launch in the oven' idea lol

How do I roast veg? Want to roast some carrots and courgette but no idea how :/ do i need to boil first? Just whack them in the oven? I feel ashamed having to ask this lol!

i'm thinking of just making loads of chilli etc, things i can freeze, then i can just grab something. tuna is quickly losing its appeal!

Hi, thanks for the suggestions, I may have to talk a walk to tesco and stock up on cheesecake yoghurts lol

Some days I really struggle to eat my syns. I can plod on quite happily without, but my consultant has said I need to have around 10 per day. Does it affect weight loss by having none? I use to use 4 on sugar in drinks, but am now using sweetener. Some days I really can't eat anymore but feel...

pizza topped chicken :)

Has anyone made this before? I'm making it tonight and wondered if it was as nice as it looks lol :)

Feel free to point out if I'm going wrong etc. Still not sure I've got my head around this :/ Wednesday Breakfast: None (had to get to weigh in lol) Lunch: chicken and mushroom mugshot, grapes, melon Dinner: Roast chicken. SW roast potatoes, petits pois, carrots, broccoli HEA: 250ml ss milk...

Ok, so today I've had... Breakfast : 2 egg omlette with peppers, spring onion and mushroom, 3 slices of WW toast. Lunch (picnic) : pasta, tuna, sweetcorn, salad (lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, spring onion, beetroot) melon, grapes, mullerlight. Dinner : Jacket potato, tuna, sweetcorn...

Added you :)

Thanks everyone. I always think I'm doing well, then something sets me off and I'm in a panic hahaha :)

Hi, yes I'm on EE. I filled in my fisrst one last week so I'll get it back on wednesday when I have my 2nd weigh in :)

Filling in my diary I've noticed than I seem to have loads more superfree down than free. I'm kept full by doing this, but wondered if it was ok to do?! For example, some days I'll have a fruit salad for brekkie thats ALL superfree. I don't wanna mess up by thinking I'm following plan when I'm...

I was gonna get one from eBay - til I saw most going for £25!! :confused: I'm getting mine from my consultant on Wednesday :)

I'm off for a picnic today and stuck for ideas :/ I've already allocated HEA for milk, and HEB for bread that I had for brekkie :sigh:

How much have you lost?

I think I'm going to attempt 'fish week' next week now after reading this! 8lbs is amazing! I assume I can eat any fish? I'll be on EE. Can I buy frozen fish? I have cooked fish about twice in my whole life so didn't have a clue what to do with it until I read this thread, it's brill!

:O omg! You look fantastic!! Well done you! :)

Yummy :) I've just had 3 slices of WW bread and a mushroom, spring onion and pepper omlette (was meant to be omlette but it came out the pan looking like scrambled egg) :/

I'm injured already - washed my hand after chopping the chillis, then rubbed my eyes........... OUCH! My whole face is on fire lol!

Sooooooooooo looking forward to it. I've been sticking to simple things, salads, rice, pasta, jacket potatoes etc. This is the first thing on SW that I'm making from scratch (might be the last depending on the results lol!) :rolleyes:

I was having probs with Fb, had to clear my cookies before it'd work lol :)

Awwww that's my 'treat' for when I dare wear a swimming costume lol! Enjoy, it'll be fab xx

I'm quite lucky, my bf doesn't touch anything remotely healthy....he's in for a shock tonight when he tucks into his SW chilli con carne lol x

Oh WOW! Mullerlight Orange with chocolate sprinkles.... How have I only just discovered this?! So nice!! And free lol!

Me too, I'm in Blidworth :D

I think a lot is due to my weight loss last week. Everyone was telling me about huge losses, some 4 times what I lost lol! I know it'll be worth it when I can go in River Island and buy some skinnys :D

Pammyd were are you from? I notice the pub is quite close to me lol :D

I feel like giving up and it's only week 2! I know I'm over reacting but I'm having one of 'those' moments lol! :/ I just want to SEE a change!

I have some turkey steaks to use tonight....any ideas what I can do to make them not so boring? We aren't going shopping tomorrow so the only spice related things I have are chilli powder and Aromat lol!

Thanks :) Am I right in thinking I can have diet drinks too? Pepsi, 7up etc?

Breakfast: 3 egg omlette made with with peppers, mushrooms and spring onion, with lean grilled bacon, and baked beans Lunch: chicken and mushroom mugshot, melon. Dinner: chicken breast, new potatoes roasted in fry light, petits pois, carrots, brocolli, sweetcorn. HEA- 250ml semi skimmed...

I was the same. On extra easy and didnt cheat at all. I lost 2lb x

Any ideas on how I can make these a bit more exciting? I'm doing Extra Easy :)

Strawberries dipped in Tesco chocolate mousse.....yum yum!

Well I raided the fridge for things that needed using and ended up with rice, pepper, spring onion, kidney beans, and beetroot :/ sounds horrid but was quite nice haha. And the rice went pink which was cool :D

I'm having chicken breast with rice tonight on extra easy. Just wondered if you had any ideas what I could chuck in the rice to make it more appetising? :)

Thank you both :) Was in a bit of a panic there!

I've been on extra easy for a week now. Weighed in today and lost 2lb. Now, I know we have to have 2/3 free and 1/3 super free, but is that for every meal, or just overall throughout the day....or does it not matter? Sometimes my meal will be all free foods, and I'll snack all day on...

Thanks leelea, I'm amazed I had lost anything, I have never felt hungry or craved anything since I started. I see your from Nottingham too :)

How do I add my BMI and stats over there < < < :/ I've gone to my profile settings but it only asks for weight in lbs :/

Thought it would be nice to have some Slimming World friends on there :) Feel free to add me :) http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000148839493

Yeah she showed me the lardy thing, wasn't pleasant lol!

Hi :) It was a little disheartening to see another lady who joined at the same time lose 7lbs lol. I have about 5st to lose and I'm not giving up until it's gone! I had to complete a food diary, so the lady who runs it is going to have a look and give me a call if I've gone wrong anywhere. I've...

Thanks for the reply :) I suppose any loss is a good one so I'll stick at it :)

Hi everyone. Thought I'd say hi :) I started slimming world last week. I stuck to it religiously, but at my 1st weigh in this morning I had only lost 2lbs :( I actually felt like crying! :'( :cry:
