Walker's squares are around 5 syns

You get 2 healthy extra a' and 2 b's when following EE. Everything else is the same while pregnant. When the baby arrives,youre allowed more healthy extra a's if you're breastfeeding.

Hi Bev,I remember you. I'm so sorry for what you have been through,I can't imagine. You will get there,that first day is always the hardest but it will just click. Keep your chin up lovely xx

Hi Kay,nice to see you back but sorry to hear you've had health issues I was maintaining my weightloss and stayed at target and then in October last year I found out I was pregnant stuck to plan whilst pregnant aswell. Had our gorgeous little boy 12 weeks ago and got half a stone to go to pre...

Hi Kay,how are you? Hope you're well. Speak soon xx

Well done on the pound,it's all starting to add up xx

Well done,5 pounds is great :woohoo: You must be so happy. You sound very prepared with all your lovely meals,I'll look forward to seeing the photos,yummy. Xx

Thanking you haha. Took me from Jan 2015 to Feb 2016 to lose 5 stone and then I kept dropping under target buto I liked it haha. Went to America in may and dropped my target to another half a stone when i got back so I'm sat at 10:13 as of yesterday from 16.7 :banana_dancer:

Hello lovely lady,so nice to have you back. I'll b here to cheer you on on your journey to Slimdom:D I can't wait to see how you've got on in your first week. I've been at target since February,no diary but still lurking haha. Happy Sunday. Rae Rae xx

Welcome back lovely xx

Happy birthday Kay, hope you're having a good one xx

Looking good kay :-) xx

Hiya, yep been back on plan since January and lost 2 stone and 9 pound :-) you will do great on Thurs xx

Good luck for Thursday Kay, you can do it xx

Oh Rosie hun, you've been thru a lot haven't you. Can't imagine what you must be feeling but I'm here if you need me. Glad you're home with hubby. My thoughts are with you both xx

Hey hun, how are you?

Oh Rozie, so sorry again. Hope you're okay, as well as can be. Thinking of you xx

That's good, glad you got someone there xx

Oh Rozie hun, I'm so so so sorry to hear your news. Have you got hubby there for support? Big hugs xx

Hope everything goes well hun xx

Think that's totally understandable hun under the circumstances. I'm sure everything will be fine and you'll feel much better when you see your little bean on the screen and listen to the heartbeat :-)

Oh they sound lovely, yum. Enjoy your day xx

Wow that sounds amazing, I love strawberries :-) Glad you're feeling a bit brighter, just take it one day at a time xx

Hey hun, I don't find that offensive at all. I know I've felt disgusted with myself over the years and I'm not even pregnant. As a constant yo yo dieter my body is wrecked and I always think why do I keep doin it to myself. I think your hormones maybe playin a part in what your feelin but...

Glad you're feelin a little better today hun. Keep your chin up xx

Not attempted it yet, just been doin EE. Think it might be too restrictive for me, maybe I could manage the odd day but I don't think I could handle a full week, lol.

Draw a line of you do get a gain but I'm sure it won't be as bad as u think :-) I list 2.5 last week so I'm on 10 now, just have to keep goin. I ordered the directory on Friday along with the free food one so waitin for that to arrive now.

No probs. They are, lol

I think that'll be the best, they say £35 off but that already includes the 'free' membership part which is £20. So, for example, the gold is £80 but should be £100 so that £20 is already included in the £35 which is misleading. If you only wanted the bronze you could use the other code but...

It's near the back I think, only offers the gold tho and it's £65

There's one in the current sw mag but it's for gold membership, which one are you after?

I lost 7.5 but that's over 10 days, pretty pleased as I've guzzled 4 bottles of cold medecine in that time and I normally don't lose when I take the stuff, prob due to all the sugar. Goin to buy the food directory when I get paid next week :-) How you gettin on?

That's fab, thanks donkey. The book looks good too, might get it so can get some new inspiration

Omg those eggs look amazin, are they easy to make? Can only see 1 pic of the book, will try again.

I'm good and I see you're doing fab :-) do you recommend the directory then?

Hey donkey, how's it goin? I've rejoined sw online today :-)

Sw have emailed me back and they're sending out the new books to gold members so I'm good to go :-) thanks for all your help guys xx

Good luck

Ahhhhh that's fab thanks

I've emailed them so i'll see what they say xx

Happy new year kay, good luck with your new plan xx

Thanks guys and thanks for the link winter. Love the help on mini's. Happy new year everyone.

I think the same to be honest as you don't get much support with the online service and it's a lit to pay in one go but it'll keep me up to date with the healthy extras and any changes but I'm sure I could still use mini's for these and also syn values. When I first started sw J bought the books...

I've already seen that and was goin to do that as that's what I did when I first started sw. I want the online membership though, I know the books work out at £15 from sw just hope they send the new books rather than the old which I'm assuming they should if they're promoting the new plan.

I want the online membership, works better for me than going to group just wanted to see if I'd get the new books with the gold package. Thanks.

I thought that but just wanted to make sure as it's so expensive. Thanks for your advice.

Hiya, I'm thinkin about rejoining online and was wondering if I get the gold membership will I get the new books? I already have 2 sets of the old books so don't want to go for the gold membership just to get the new books and I get sent the old ones. Hope this makes sense, lol xx

Think they're out on 18th feb

Evening stranger, so sorry to hear about your auntie. Hope she's making a good recovery. You better be lookin a after yourself too xx

Why don't you sign up online if you don't want to do the group thing.

Sorry thought you'd just been the gym this mornin, not last night. Ignore me, lol.

So sorry to hear about all you've gone through, can't imagine how you must feel. Well done on the gym :-). Defo go for soup, it'll be more nutritious for you so your body will thank you for it, it'll fill you up more than cereal plus it'll warm your cockles in this weather. Enjoy.

Well done yourself on gettin back to it :-) I've managed to lose 6 pounds since last sun so goin well for now :-)

There's an article on the slimming world website today saying they are bringing out a small ready meal range in the new year.

Hi donkey, how's it goin? Hope you had a good weekend. I've got my act together and back on the wagon, counting calories this time tho, need a change of scenery. Fingers crossed u can do it.

Boiling an egg in a kettle?! Think my soup maker will come in handy :-) Why don't you take a multi vit, see if that helps.

I'm on plan but worrying about moving as I can only order my fridge on Fri so don't know when it'll be delivered so worried about food but sure I can work round it, fingers crossed, lol.

Hey donkey, you're doin great. I think there's a sw soup that is supposed to taste like heinz tomato which involves a pickled onion, lol. Never tried it myself tho but may do as bought a soup maker yesterday :-)

Well done kay, you're definitely back in the groove xx

Don't be sad, i'll still be around. Just don't feel like writing much at the moment but I'm still lurking :-) xx

How was wi bev? Xx

Well hello, sorry not been around. How you gettin on now? I'm back on plan today after 10 days off. Can't keep doing this yo yoing cycle, it's doin my head in. Hope you're ok tho. I've deleted my diary so will come see how you're getting on on yours.

Hey kay, how you doin? I'm back on plan today after having 10 days off. I've had my diary deleted aswell so I will visit you on your diary hun to see how you're getting on. Hope you're having a fab Saturday xx

Well done on your amazing loss kay xx

Fab NSV :-)Enjoy your walk xx

Your doing fab already :-) xx

Anytime hun, sorry I can't be of much help xx

I know you do hun. Why don't you read over your diary when you had your amazing losses and see if you can get motivated xx

Only after a whopping gain. And you will start losing again when it clicks hun xx

There's your gain then if you still haven't had star week, it has a lot to answer for. Sorry you feel crappy hun, I've been there myself before my hols and it's a horrible feeling when you're in limbo. Big hugs to you hun xx

First of all, well done for not listening to the ED voice, you are incredibly strong and have shown lots of courage since starting sw. You've done so well with the amount of pressure you've been under lately. Secondly, you are NOT self centred. If you were you wouldnt be helping your mum...

How did you get on hun? Xx

Good luck on to your journey, must be extra tough doing it in Thailand. Where abouts are you?

How are you donkey?

Good luck for Wi today hun xx

Wow, that's not a lot of food is it. Good luck at weigh in hun xx

Subscribing. Good luck on your journey, you're doin fab so far :-)

I'd urge you to get out of the situation as it's goin to make your mental health and ED worse bit I know this isn't an option for you. I think your dad should show some support towards you as your mum's behaviour isn't fair. Can you not take your fruit things to your room? It's not ideal but may...

Thanks for the recipe kay xx

Wow, well done. And there was you thinkin you hadn't done enough. Congratulations.

That tagine looks amazing, can I have the recipe pretty please xx

How you gettin on mate?

Just got back on plan. I didn't get weighed b4 I went but to be fair I don't think I put much, if any on whilst there. Only had 2 meals a day and was continuously walking for 12 hours a day. Got back on the wagon and drank tons of water, within 3 days I'd lost 8 pound xx

Hiya, just replied to you on my diary. Take your time to get back in he groove hun, you will soon get back to where you want to be. If there's anything I can do just let me know. Oh and it was me that said the mint mullers are fit, yum xx

Sorry to hear your mum is being difficult. Is there any way you can go home and get yourself out of the situation? If not then just do what you can when you can. I'm sure you haven't done too much damage. Keep your chin up.

Is there no way you can follow the plan while you're there?

Everything ok?

Hope you're ok hun xx

Hey donkey, you back on the wagon now?

That will be water weight hun, it will defo be off by next weigh in. How did Chris do? Mushrooms sound fit xx

Kay my lovely, if you have a quick look at my diary entries you will see I have gained 16.5 pounds in a short space of time aswell. This and yours will most likely be water as I got back on the wagon Saturday and by Tuesday I had lost 8 pound of it. Not scale hopped since so can't tell you where...

Come back kay, miss ur posts xx

Fab fab fab :-)

Well done you for gettin through all those exams. Fingers crossed you don't get a migraine and you can chill out tonight

How you doin kay? Xx

Hiya, so sorry just catching up. You sound super stressed, no wonder you got a migraine. I hope all goes well on Mon, it'll be a long day but it'll soon be over then you can hit sw full force with me :-)

I know, had a super stressful day today but all done now so gonna have a few hours sleep, gettin picked up at 5:15 in the morning. So sorry to hear about your gain, will definitely be off next week with a few extra. Good luck with your exams.

I think it's nice, I was very surprised. Was expecting the worst with it having coke in it.

I think the diet coke chicken tastes bbqy if that makes sense.

I don't AB, I'll try to put some on here tho. Thank you, so excited xx

Fab fab fab

Wow, the fast days really suit you. I seen your pic of your nail polish the other day and bought myself some yesterday :-) have a fab time in Vegas. I go NYC on Wednesday, can't wait.

That is fab news, it's great isn't it :-)

It's so hot there right now, gonna melt. Sounds like you've got a lot to do but I'm sure you'll get through it and pass with flying colours :-) Good luck.

Fingers crossed you can get some more work done. When's the exam? Yeah, finished at 3pm yesterday and we go on Wednesday. Just been to town, manged get a couple of tops but need more.

Hey donkey, how's the revision goin?

Good luck on your journey.

That's fab, you really are amazing. Well done :-)

Wow, that's amazing. You back in the sw swing now? How did Chris do? Xx

Wow, your stats are AMAZING!! What are you eating to have fab losses? Please share cos I need a kick up the bum.

Good luck Bev xx

Woooooooo well done chica :-)

Good luck for weigh in.

At least she was nicer than you expected :-) I'll look into the book, thanks for sharing.

I'll put 10 stone on in a week, eeekkk xx

I know, soooo excited :-) not much to report apart from the solicitors being a waste of space, lol xx

Welcome back gorgeous xx

Wow, it was a good day then:-) it must be so tough dealing with that on a daily basis, fingers crossed the boron sees an improvement for you. How were things with your mum? What is this book about you and kay are talking about?

Sorry to hear you didn't have a good a time as you thought and you didn't get to do the run. Fingers crossed you get back to your bubbly self soon, keep your chin up xx

Hahaha like this :-)

Omg, I love PB chocolate. Never have the stuff out of a jar but obsessed with Reece's, haven't a clue why. NYC is goin to make me fatter, lol.

Fingers crossed for a fab day, hope you feel better.

I don't like hersheys either. I can't wait for new york, gonna fill my suitcase with reece's, I'm obsessed :-)

Hope you're feeling better kay xx

Well done, that's fab xx

Have a fab birthday Bev and good luck for your run too xx

That's fab, as long as it did the job. I have chips a lot more now than I've ever done when dieting. Eat tons more chocolate too.

Sweet and sour chicken is my fave aswell but takeaway one is off the scale. There's a diet fanta chicken which is like sweet and sour, you tube it. The syn value of the ones above where takeaway ones if you did want the real thing.

You need the fake away book so you can have a sw friendly takeaway or go for low syn options....beef in mushroom is 4.5 and have it with boiled rice, chicken in mushroom is 5.5. You can have the pop and the chocolate if you syn it.

Big hugs kay, like the others have said, get plenty of rest and look after you xx

Awwww no kay, you're havin a tough time lately. Big hugs xx

Well done that's fab for both you and Chris. Are you still doing your colour run? Enjoy your tea xx

Ahhhhh that's great, thanks for that.

Looks fit. How do you make the cauliflower rice? Keep meaning to try it.

I was the same, never cooked til sw and now love cookin new recipes :-)

Good luck with weigh in Bev. You'll have done great xx

Ahhhhh just wondered with you sayin hubby was stuck in Liverpool as I don't live too far from there. What's happening today? Xx

Looking good. Do you not eat breakfast?

How was the curry?

Dress looks fab :-) well done for another on plan day, roll on weigh in xx

It'll take a while for your body to get used to eating real food after bein abused over the years (hope you don't mind me sayin that) so the fact that your losing consistently is fab :-)

Woooo that's fab. You gotta be pleased with that?

Where u from smurf if you don't mind me askin? Xx

I'm the exact same kay. Need to get a grip, my face has fone round and my bum and belly are getting bigger, booooo. I'm hoping for a 100% day tomorrow. Sorry to hear you're not recovering as well as you'd hoped. You need to rest and concentrate on getting better the sw will fit in after that xx

Kay my lovely, I'm feelin the exact same. Don't know what's goin on but my mojo has well and truly got up and gone :-( I'm panicin aswell with my hols so close, gonna go away a big fat mess. Need to get back in control xx

It's been 10 days since the offer was accepted, surveys done and waiting for the searches to be carried out. Exciting but scary :-) xx

Just had my survey report through, all fab :-) xx

Firstly, havin a few extra things isn't going to harm you like previous eating would. I know it's all about calories but if you compared it to what your binges were like a few weeks ago then it's nothing :-) If you can't have chocolate yet what about a hot chocolate, will satisfy the choc...

It's all goin well thank you, surveys been done so waiting for the report, should be tomorrow or Monday at the latest. Been the solicitors this morning to pay for the searches. Your 'binge' wasn't a binge hun, just normal :-) it's hard this dieting malarkey and couple it with an ED is ten...

How was weigh in? Xx

So sorry not been on your diary much, I let myself have a few days off. Back on the wagon now. How you getting on?

Enjoy xx

Good luck bevvy xx

A pound is fab, I know you feel dis heartened but please don't, you'll get a bigger loss next week. It will be your body catching up with your mahoosive loss last week :-)

Morning kay xx

Well done on finishing all your work, you won't know what to do with yourself will you :-)

I've heard the frozen grapes are supposed to be nice but never tried them myself. Don't let the yoghurt fully freeze or it'll take 5 hours and an ice pick to eat ;-)

Night kay xx

Such a difference, well done.

I spend too much on superfree, it's crazy how all the healthy food costs a fortune. No wonder we get fat in the first place...multi packs for a quid!

It'll be water xx

Have you buggered off again? Come back smurf xx

You're definitely not eating enough. Get yourself some fruit to snack on or hard boiled eggs. You need to keep your body guessin and shake your metabolism up otherwise it'll cling onto the fat as it doesn't know when it'll get fed again which makes sense as it's happened before when your in the...

Welcome back :-) xx

Well done, told you there was nothing to worry about :-) xx

Good luck kay, not that you need it xx

That's fab, lots of adventures :-)

When is it you go Vegas? I go NYC weeks today :-)

Well done belle, those fast days definitely agree with you :-)

Night kay xx

I was the same when I got my halogen oven, it's amazeballs xx

Can't even remember what I did last year but was pretty new to sw, started last Oct so was still finding my feet really but don't think it bothered me to be honest but everybody's different plus I was new so you do everything by the book at first don't you, lol xx

Me too, taste just as nice I think. You should go bed otherwise you won't be able to concentrate properly. Good luck for week 2 xx

Pure stodge :-) xx

It's good to look back on and like you said, it'll prepare you for the winter months. You'll be able too cook loads of different yummy things. No idea about the Quorn tho. Hopefully someone else will be able to answer soon xx

The slow cooker idea sounds fab, whack it all in and bobs your uncle, no standing In the cold kitchen cooking for an hour, fab idea xx

Congratulations again, that's fab. You can make sw chips you know so you don't have to use syns on them. Some people par boil potatoes but I don't, I cut a potato into chips, spray with fry light and whack in the oven :-)

Can you not change your meds? I always felt ashamed, people don't know about my ED apart from mini's. Feels like it happened to someone else now, I still have issues but nowhere near as bad. I got to the point where I couldn't carry on so asked for help. It really does take over everything. I...

Hey donkey, found you. You are so brave for posting you're story,a lot of it definitely made sense to me but I'm so sorry you've never had any support from your mum, that must be tough. Have you ever spoken about it to your GP? Mine was very unhelpful (think he didn't understand ED) but agreed...

Awww so sorry you're feelin rubbish but the up side is you're stuck with us instead :-) xx

Not sure if we cross posted before hun but hoped your sister got off ok xx

Hope your sister got off ok xx

Mmmm what are these oat cookies? Xx

Hey donkey, I too have suffered with an ED. It wasn't until I started sw last October, things finally clicked. I had therapy but was still restricting and binging then joined sw....Best thing I ever did. If you want to take a look at the first entry in my diary....Rae Rae's rambles....It'll...

I know it'll be fun and got 5 weeks to shift as much as I can xx

I know, it's flew over hasn't it. Booked it last October. Erm, if I can lose 3 stone in that time then yes, lol xx

It'll fly over, just concentrate on getting to goal and getting ready for your op. Ahhhhh 5 weeks today :-) xx

Well good luck to you, hope it all works out and will be lovely to spend that quality time with both of your sisters xx

Wow looks fab kay. You sound so much more positive than this mornings post, it's great having something to look forward to xx

Woop woop, something good to focus on :-)

So sorry kay, I know you were looking forward to goin this summer. Is there no chance for the end of the year which would be something to look forward to? Big hugs xx

It's not long til your hols now so focus on that and when you get back I bet you'll have lots of interview offers.

Don't feel disheartened about the jobs, I've applied for jobs in the past and only been offered interviews a month down the line. Keep your chin up, it WILL happen xx

Hope your having a good week:-)

Hello stranger, glad your feelin better. Nice to read an update, well done on the uni place xx

Well done on your loss, like you said it's all goin in the right direction :-)

Enjoy your walk kay, I'm off to work soon, booooo xx

Morning, have you decided if you're going to do a nutrition course? Xx

Fingers crossed xx

Just needed 2 days off and promised myself to get back on yesterday so looked through my mags and recipe books for new inspiration xx

Feelin motivated again and giving my diet a shake up :-) hope you manage to get out for your walk xx

Ahhhh no, it's very humid up north. Had a good day, was working then went to see my Bro as it's his bday today then seen J before he went to work and I went on an hours walk with my friend :-) xx

How's your day been kay? Xx

Wow, well done :-)

Good luck for Wi xx

Awww so sorry. SW can wait xx

Good luck on your journey, you can do it and when you're at target, it'll make him even more jealous :-)

You've done grand, do you feel better in yourself?

Well done :-)

What have I told you about bein sorry. You'd be fab, take some time to think about it xx

Ahhhhh kay, you'd be fab. DO IT DO IT DO IT :-) xx

You daft bugger :-) xx

I'm not surprised and don't you dare apologise kay, you've got every right to be feelin how you're feeling. Keep your chin up xx

Awww bless you Kay, you've had a tough time lately. Hope ur ok xx

Well Helloooooo there xx

Thank you :-) xx

Kay, my lovely I need your help. How do you delete photos in your diary? Want to delete one and I'm struggling xx

Ahhhhh thank you :-) yeah if it works, don't knock it. Glad ur feelin better xx

No probs, glad to help. I know how it feels when you think it's not working. At least it's starting to work for you now then the vlood gates will open, lol. Yeah I take them twice a day long term. I do worry if I'd be able to cope without them and wonder if my bowels got lazy but it does say...

Ahhhhh ok, I've never used lactulose before but you've got the advice from your Dr :-) it's the worst feelin ever, I just wanted to eat junk so could 'go' but persevered. I was on the verge of tears as I felt so uncomfortable so I know how you feel. Once it starts working though, it'll be good...

I use fybogel long term and for me it's a god send, when I first started using it, it did take about a week to kick in which isn't ideal but after that it's amazin. I put mine in a pint glass of water and down it, if you leave it too long it sets on the bottom and goes quite thick. If you start...

Not surprised you're happy, you've done amazing. Glad you got on with your C, shame about the certificate tho xx

Well done Bevvy, it's all coming together :-) xx

Fab fab fab, brilliant news kay. Well done, you must feel amazin right now. How was the new C? Xx

I'll be fine after a good kip :-) good luck for tomorrow xx

I'm ok, spin was a killer tonight, my legs are all jittery xx

Don't feel pressured, you'll do grand xx

Ahhhh can't wait to hear how you get on xx

What time is Wi tomorrow? You'll definitely be keeping your 4.5 award xx

Well done, that's a fan result xx

Yeah definitely takin the first one back. Thank you xx

Back to the shop, lol xx

He loved them aswell, everyone was in agreement about the second one tho including him so decided to keep that one :-) xx

You're a charmer ;-) xx

That's nice of you to say :-) xx

I'm the exact same when it comes to black. That's why I'm shocked I bought those bright dresses the other day plus my initial reaction in the shop was, oh this is nice, I wonder if they've got it in black. I too, feel bigger in bright clothes and feel like I stand out which I don't like. I like...

Well done on all your losses xx

Morning, can you not give us a little hint how you've done? ;-) xx

Dress looks gorgeous, I know I've said it before but you seriously do not look your weight. You're gonna be a twig when you get to goal, lol. Well done xx

Well done Hun, just keep chipping away and you'll soon be at goal. I feel the same at the moment 3 had steady losses for a few weeks now seem to be plateuing which I'm not happy about but it's gotta kick in again hasn't it. Enjoy your day and well done on your gym session xx

On last night's post bev said she was getting weighed this morning so she was drinkin loads of water to get rid of any water retention xx

Did you buy a bunny farm? :-) xx

Good luck for Wi xx

Sounds fab, well done xx

How's your day been? Food looks fab xx

You sound so positive, good luck on your journey. Can't wait to hear your first weigh in result :-)

You've done fab at still goin for your run bev, if it was me I would have sacked the gym off but you my lovely did what 'normal' people do and pulled your day back with exercise. Think that's definitely a NSV :-) xx

Gravy, hot chocolate with cream on maybe, mints

Last time, I lost 8 stone and you can imagine it was a vast difference, I was the same then. Yeah I've lost a bit....8 bloody stone, lol xx
