Hello again! I used to follow Weight Watchers and struggled to lose weight and always felt hungry. I joined Slimming World at the end of September and to date have lost 15lbs and gone down a dress size. Never eaten so well (and so much) and steadily lost weight. Looking forwards to joining in...

Yep, I get WW foods from Poundland too :D

Coming to the conclusion my scales are dodgy! Back on Discover and only lost 1lb, and that 1lb reappeared today. Yet my trousers are getting a bit on the baggy side and other clothes are a bit looser. Time for new scales - must have lost a few pounds!!

I had no luck with propoints either. Lost nothing the last 4 weeks!! Finding 18 points on Discover hard to stick to, but I'll get there - previously had good weight loss on Discover. 1 week down and lost 1lb, so its a start!:D

Hiya flumpet - I'm going to try and post on here pretty often, just hoping I can get to lose weight again. PP works for some, but I regret leaving the Discover plan :(. There's quite a lot of cheap books on Ebay, worth a look. Picked up some recipe books very cheaply. Good luck, keep posting how...

Hiya - I'm going back on the Discover plan too. Propoints has been useless for me, and on Discover I always had a steady weight loss. The last straw with PP was gaining 2lbs last week and I had stuck to it religiously!!!

Anyone got any idea about how many propoints there are in Turkish Delight? Not the Fry's variety, the sort that's sold loose? Got a nasty feeling there are loads of pp :(

Can't help on that one sorry! Hopefully someone else can answer that for you.

Yep, takes a while to mix! Have only been able to find sachets, not jars. Love 'em!

Sorry if this has been posted already but a good online pp calculator is at Weight Watchers Points Calculator Got it on my iphone - not wasting money on a WW calculator :) You can also work out points if you're following the old plan

Oh heck - my neighbour has just brought me a piece of her wedding cake! Wonder how many propoints is in that? Very nice of her though!!

Just found this old thread of mine from late 2010! I started out at 12st 7lbs, lost 10 lbs over several weeks, then let it slide, going back to 12st 2lbs. Now back to 11st 11.5lbs - my weight when I gave up WW last time!! This time I'm feeling more focussed, so fingers crossed!

Total weight loss now of 4.5lbs - 1lb off this past week :D My personal life saver iwhen I've got a sweet tooth is a meringue nest (1pp) with a splodge of very low fat cream plus fruit on top!! Raring to get to 11st7lbs, my next mini goal!

Just had an Options Wicked White choc hot drink and only 1pp!! If you like white chocolate can highly recommend!:D

Thank you! It really has helped to keep me motivated and believe it works :D Saved up some of the weekly extra points and had a cadbury's creme egg today - god it tasted good!!!!

Well - first week in, and have lost 3lbs !! Very happy, and now in the 11's :D

Thanks again! Am raring to go and shift this weight. Well done on your weight loss!

Thanks Sarah :). Is there still the weekly extra allowance (forget how many it was, but 49 weekly extra Pp rings a bell) Also, do people recommend eating those extra points? Thx again x

Well, its back to WW for me. I'd lost over a stone and have gone and put most of it back on again :( I heard the daily allowance has changed from when PP was originally launched - can anyone please tell me what the new allowance is, or how to work it out? Can't afford to rejoin WW at this time...

Had lost a lb at today's weigh in, making a total of 10lbs (in 7 weeks) Very happy!:woohoo:

Not been on here for ages! Very pleased to report I've now lost a total of 10lbs and am a happy bunny! And I can fit comfortably into that new dress!

Hiya - thanks for the replies :) I keep looking at the new dress and telling it I WILL fit into it before too long :D The fruit flakes are actually 2 points and not 3 - they are very yummy fruity bits covered in chocolate, and really give me my fix! I'm psyching up for the next WI - too much to...

I'm pleased for me

3lbs lost! 3lbs gone and 30 to go! I only really started counting points yesterday, but have been careful about what I've been eating the past week. Maybe some of it was fluid but whatever, it's given me a real boost that I CAN do this! I know from last time I did WW that I'll have weeks where...

So pleased!! Pretty sure a pound or two of that is fluid loss, but whatever- 3lb loss :D:D:D Pam

Hi Emmaline - nice to meet you! I've decided to leave my new dress hanging on the wardrobe door -I really want to be able to wear it, and if I could lose about 7 lbs, am sure I'd fit into it. It's a good motivator - and good luck on your journey to be able to wear your new coat :) Today's gone...

New here! Ooh - please can I join you? I only joined the forum a few days ago and have started WW today, after a few days of being much more careful about what (and how much!) I eat. I'm 5'4" and my start weight is 175lbs, the heaviest I have ever been. I'm hoping to lose 1-2lbs a week. Last...

Had a successful supermarket trip, now stocked up for the week ahead. Next job is to make the leek and potato soup, and cheated a bit by getting a WW main meal - but it was on offer :D So far today I've had 11 points - evening meal will be 5 points, so that leaves me 4 points for this evening...

My last post didn't appear - just checking if this works... Yep it did - must have hit 'delete' by mistake last time! Anyway, I'm starting WW properly tomorrow - this weekend I've just been a lot more mindful about what I'm eating and why - I think a lot of my overeating is due to grazing in the...

:o OK -it's time I stopped procrastinating and got off the fence and started on WW again. I'm 5'4" and currently weigh 175lbs, the heaviest I have ever been. Yes, 12 stone 7lbs! I'm an ample size 16 (size 18 might be more comfortable but I refuse to buy that size!!!) For years I hovered between...

Thank you all! Many thanks for the warm welcomes - I know I've found the right place to be! I'm very determined to get back to a comfortable weight for myself - I was out today and caught sight of my side view in a mirror:cry:I've decided I'm not buying any more clothes til I've lost some of...

Hello! So pleased to have found this forum - I think I'll be living here in future weeks/months :D I'm planning to go back to using Weightwatchers as it was very successful for me some years back. At that time I signed up and used the online forum which was great, but it's become too expensive...
