    Extra Easy Anyone doing Online membership?

    I signed up last monday after trying slimming world a number of times. Went to groups but my last consultant really wasn't supportive. She wasn't happy unless you lost at least 2lbs per week and it's the only available group to me so thought I would try online instead. Have actually been good...

    Day One.

    Thats a good idea Determinator. I tried a choc shake yesterday and that didn't go down well, so heated it up like a hot choc which made it bearable but gave up half way. Then I had a veg soup which I wasn't keen on either so didn't finish that either. I resorted to finishing a pack of ham and...

    Day One.

    Thank you sooo much! I've only eaten half the bar and to be honest, my tum feels so dodgy I don't feel hungry. They've even brought the cake out at work celebrating 175year anniversary and I've point blanked refused it (and the guy that sits behind me with his stash of haribos). I did think the...

    Day One.

    And I'm already not so sure if I can do this. Have not tried the products before today but just had the toffee & raisin bar and it really didn't agree with me. I've only had half it because I really couldn't stomach the rest. Saying that, I was worried I wouldn't drink enough water but I've just...

    Is there anyone doing just SS?

    Thanks for the replies girls. Miss_G , I haven't started yet but after reading the website, I realised I can only do SS as I'm on prescription meds but will be goin to my docs as I like the idea of just knowing what I can have rather then guessing 600 cal meal on top. I'm goin to get a weeks...

    Please help an outsider understand...

    I have an overactive. I did contemplate seeing the doctor incase they want to do more blood tests anyway as I recently moved to the area. I did wonder what the effects would have been if I did TS. It's funny cos it runs in my family and I seem to be the only goin to have a weight gain, but also...

    Ah think I would prefer to do them but I'm medication for my thyroid so looks like I can only stick to SS. Doh. :(

    Is there anyone doing just SS?

    As title goes... From what I gather it's TS all the way. Just trying to find abit of support that's in the same boat.

    Please help an outsider understand...

    Thank you for replying. :) I'll be doing Simple Solution as I have about 2 stone to lose - I'm guessing that's not the same as TS? x

    Hello! I've done SW on and off and didn't seem to get major results. My friend did LighterLife and did so well it was very inspiring, however LighterLife is bloomin expensive so she recommended Exante. (which i keep pronoucing as zante for some reason?! :confused:) I've been reading through...

    Thursday Weighers

    Loss of 4lbs. So happy! As my first week I had only lost half a pound and was very disheartened as I felt I stuck to plan properly but I also had star week! :D

    So disheartened.

    Thanks Ladies. What both of you said has made sense as I was pretty much back on plan before I officially rejoined. Will keep going and see how it goes over the month. Fingers crossed for next week! x

    So disheartened.

    After my first week back and weighing in, I've only lost half a pound. (I know some will say that it's still a loss). But *hand on heart* I was 100% on plan. I weighed everything and synned EVERYTHING. I put more effort into the past week then I have on slimming world. I did a food diary...

    anyon struggling t lose weight with an underactive thyroid??

    Yeh that is the problem with the underactive thyroid. However, if you are on the right dosage, your metabolism should balance out. See how you get on with the results from your last blood test. :o)

    I've had a look on sw online but they don't seem to have it. Drench is made by britvic but does anyone know by any chance how many syns? There's 38 cals per 100ml and it's a 440ml bottle. (Blackcurrant and apple flavour) :o

    anyon struggling t lose weight with an underactive thyroid??

    I'm 25 now (nearly 26) but I was diagnosed when I was 22. Had alot of the symptoms and it runs through my family as well. Another possibility if you're not seeing results is doing a food diary and double checking you're not missing anything? :o

    anyon struggling t lose weight with an underactive thyroid??

    Hi Tracie Green! I've been diagnosed too with an underactive thyroid. I'm one of the youngest people I know who has it! Since I've been put on medication and trying SW, it has been coming off. Not very well as I wasn't putting 100% into it. It is very do-able though. As suggested, possibly...

    I used too. We would have a takeaway or something but I've stopped all that now. Whenever I go shopping, I always pick himself up a chocolate pudding. At the same time, I buy those light choc trifles (6.5 syns). Recently I keep picking up the full fat ones by accident so I hand them straight...

    Hi all! Back on the wagon! On a mission this time! I kinda just gave up back in November. Had no motivation and personal circumstances contributed as well. But have booked 3 holidays this month and I am determined to shift 2 stone by May. I rejoined group last week and weigh in is on...

    Oooooh I was angry today...

    I would've complained. I have no patience so wouldn't have repeated it twice. Once is enough - no answer - on the phone. Rudeness. I see so many of these supermarket home delivery drivers that are just out of school and don't give a toss about how they drive.

    Why is your tail between your legs? There's nothing wrong with doing it again! Least you haven't given up. I've rejoined as well. Before SW, there was no way I was drinking diet anything! Full fat cola all the way. But after joining SW and the great invention of coke zero - it really helps...

    underactive thyroid suffers

    I'm on 75mg daily for underactive. Really played havoc before I was put on medication. If you're on the right dosage, I don't see why you can't lose weight if you are doing it right. :)

    Thanks Ellebear. :) I wasn't a complete angel for the rest of the weekend as it was * week as well. Is it a negative to just write a week off and start again? Back on the wagon from today. Oh! Got a camping trip next week. Is it poss to cook a jacket potato on the bbq if you wrap it in tin foil?

    Attending a wedding tomorrow. Dun dun daaaaaaah!

    Thanks for the advice. Have to admit there we NO good choices. Honest. It was mini quiches, sandwiches, chicken goujons and profiteroles. No salad, no lean meat, no fruit. So I just had some and will have to try harder following week.

    Constant Weighing

    I used to weight myself every so often at OH's house and the scales always made out I was MUCHO heavier then what I actually was, so was quite pleased at my start week that I wasn't as heavy as I thought I was. However, I'm in the frame of mind that I like to keep the suspense for weekly weigh...

    trials and tribulations of a serial dieter - returning to s/w

    Hi Valerie, If you don't want to use all 15 syns, but want a snack (and you're on the EE plan) why not try low fat super noodles (syn free). I find they fill a massive hole and can't finish the pack! :)

    This is probably the cynical side of me, but do you know for sure that's what she is doing? Could she be making it up or have you seen her habits?

    Feel like giving up

    It might be best to do a food diary for a few weeks to get back into the swing of things. I always find you can't lie when you right down every thing that goes past your lips! Don't be disheartened though. :)

    Thank you for the welcomes!! I lost 2.5lbs last night - quite pleased with that but I know what scuppered my chances of losing abit more.
