If only there was a way to get rid of them both quicker jayde1148 ...... how about melting down the chocolate orange and slurping it with the Baileys? lol

duplicate.

Good luck everyone, i think we have the determination this time round :-)

Thank you! Need to get my ass into gear lol

Good luck Nadine, i'm joining my class on Weds 1/1/14(must double check it will be open). This is hopefully my final restart lol

I'm in!! Joining SW next Wednesday, i'm going to be bold and go for 14lbs. Good luck all :-)

Well if you want to do slimming world, let's join together if you fancy it? You live in North London don't you?

Not lost a sausage, rejoining SW this week. I need public weighing lol How you getting on?

Definitely happy to meetup :-) thank you, I'm just going for a meal, didn't really want to do anything lol what plan you following? X

How you ladies getting on? I've fallen off the wagon for month but 2 weeks to my 30th, want to be focussed.

Hey ladies, hole everyone is well. I went to my first ever group exercise class on Friday (Zumba) and loved it, sweated like a P-I-G lol Hoping to go a couple of times a week and then gym twice a week. Got to work my gym membership to the max lol

Camplestar 25lb Starlit_Cazza 30lb Freyj4z 20lb BigBlackBird 20lbs Linzman 10lbs

Yeah, Kens walks are good, everyone is friendly and we chatted to new people too.

Hope I can achieve good loses, I also need 4lbs a week :-)

Vary could be 1.5hrs to 2.5 on each walk it tells you how long they are.

You are doing amazingly Victoria, you will have a slim 26th birthday for sure :-)

Yes I've been to Kens walk to Hampsted Heath and parliament hill. The hills killed me a little but otherwise it was a lovely walk and not fast. I went to a london gentle walks walk on Thursday, which was in Highbury and islington, that was a stroll.

Camplestar 25lb Starlit_Cazza 30lb Freyj4z 20lb BigBlackBird 20lbs

I'm more than likely going to start from my next weigh in (Weds) I need a slap lol can't believe we are nearly half way through April already and I'm still a few pounds from my pre-Xmas weight :-(

How will we keep check? Just updating our weekly results here? Really hoping to lose some serious weight, especially as I'm turning the big 3-0 in November lol

Great story and looking forward to hearing about your progress :-)

Definitely up for this challenge, i'm going to aim for about 5st though as i'm doing weight watchers. Be nice to have support from those with lots to lose too :-)

lol Zest, i'm going to a few over the next few months, so let me know if you are attending and i'll wave lol

Thank you zest, the following groups have slower paced walks: KEN'S FREE LONDON WALKS (London, England) - Meetup The London Gentle Walks Group (London, England) - Meetup I'm going to the Highbury and Islington one tomorrow which is full but the Finsbury park to Alexandra Palace one will surely...

Blooming eck! Congrats congrats! Hope you had a lovely day and honeymoon. Well if you want to walk, I have a few lined up over the next few weeks via meetup, so let me know : Gym is going well, I go 6.30 in the morning and do 4 miles on the treadmill

I just thought I'd chip in that there are a lot of walking groups on meetup.com, the majority are free also. I went to a Hampsted Heath walk recently and it was great to push myself.

Ladies! Can't believe it has been so long since we all caught up. How is everyone doing? After a large gain over Xmas, it's taken me up to two weeks ago to shift it. Rwaly annoyed with myself so I've joined my local gym-it's 10 mins walk from work and I'm aiming to go in the mornings...

Hi Ladies, How are you both? NewStart-sorry for delayed response, will reply to your email. I met my walking buddy twice this week, she's on holiday next week and i intend to walk again on Tuesday but otherwise my week is busy making goodies for my sister's 30th, so my next free day would be...

I stayed the same yesterday but this week has been good so far. Met my walking buddy yesterday and i was at the gym this afternoon

How you getting on ladies?

4lbs off. Very suprised but happy.

Hey ladies, We've all been in the same boat-last weekend was lost to chips and oh so tasty foods, so fretting about the scales tomorrow. Trying to remain positive, i'm 16lbs away from my 12 week goal, with 8 weeks (including tomorrow) to go, so i just need to aim for 2lbs a week. NewStart- i...

Evening all! How are you all? I didn't WI today as it's the WW leaders convention today and our leader had to go, mandatory attendence. I didn't want to WI mid week at another class either. This weekend has been very gluttonous, not good but i'll be back on track tomorrow. Some good news...

That's a very good idea. Ill buy one and give it a try-thank you! Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

Unfortunately my gym doesn't offer Zumba weirdly but I might hunt out a class somewhere. Thank you! Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

Weighed in today, 3lbs off :-) 1st 2lbs gone forever lol

Hi all, I'm currently size 26/28 and was wondering if many bigger people do yoga as i've recently joined the gym and this looks like the sole class i could possibly do lol

Oh god NewStart you said the R word-ribssss lol salivating at 7am in the morning about ribs, not good lol

I lost 2lbs on Sunday, this week is going pretty well and i join the gym tomorrow. Newstart, did you have a good time? Only a lb on, that's amazing, i'd go mad in that country, ribs oh sweet ribs lol

Well i think i might just start a meetup group for overweight walkers, see what the demand is like, didn't realise they charge for starting a group, so i'll wait til pay day lol

Hi Julie, Unfortunately i work during the week days but thank you for the offer. I will check meetup again though for a walking group that is for us slower folk lol

Been slow updating my stats, sorry!

I've not started walking yet, yourself? I was looking at meetup, they have loads of walking groups there

Oh I'm in North London, i think we are too far for each other :-(

lol MissSmiley, i did the same madness. Had chip shop stuff yesterday, regretted it as soon as we ordered it. We'll get good loses this week, planning lots of fish I still need to start walking, i feel self conscious alone though, waddling lol Congrats on the 1lb though!

Hey ladies, sending this from class-I lost 3lbs this week, disappointed but happy. Last night was a blow out, the chip shop beckoned! Roll on for a good week for all of us :-)

I agree- exercise is not natural to me either lol I really need to start walking though How have the last few days been for you both? My 2nd weigh in is tomorrow-scared!

£10.99? That's so cheap, where is that? I'm going to join the gym at the end of the month (skint already lol) with a work colleague i used to go with. But i need to learn to force myself to walk to and from the station. I can understand being upset in that situation but you are very lucky to...

MissSmileyBrunette, yesterday was bad but i was still within my points. 5 packs of quavers, at 2 points each and then a bag of handcooked crisps. Ridiculous. Today has been good though, i never used to eat breakfast but i force myself to have toast. How has today been for you?

Thank you newstart, i'm craving stuff but trying to be good. I'll have to google slim and save, i've not heard of it. How often do you intend to walk? I'm doing zero exercise at the moment, not good i know but i just want to get this weight watchers thing firmly in my head and then i'll tackle...

I hate the rower the most lol i was worrying about my bum hanging off it lol How's your day been? :-)

Well done Clevercat!

I'm in Edmonton, North London. Yourself?

I was thinking of rejoining the gym, I kinda enjoyed going lol

That's excellent. I'm too scared to go swimming lol

My boobs are too big for running lol

My boobs are too big for running lol

How about making stuffed portobello mushrooms for starters, then slow roast lamb and then spend syns on dessert, I'm sure I've seen a sw friendly tiramisu / cheesecake recipe somewhere. There is a valentines day 3 course menu in a older slimming world mag from a year or two ago, if i can hunt it...

May i join in please, i set my target in class today for 32lbs loss in 12 weeks, so i'll pick that for here also.

Me too, hence looking for a walking buddy lol

Whoop! Watch us slim lol Be great if you could get 2lbs this week, you'd be at 1st 7lbs lost in just 9 weeks. amazing.

I lost 8lbs MissSmileyBrunnette! So pleased. My week has been good, i had one blip (my mum bought me a chicken kebab during the week, it would have been rude to waste it lol). Otherwise, i think i've stuck to it well, i could do with eating more vegetables though. How did you get on?

Thank you Bulldogdaisy, still getting my head around it all but definitely feeling more comfortable on it than SW :-)

Thank you India :-):)

1st weigh in this morning and I have lost 8lbs. Good luck to everyone this week :-)

Hey, Just wondering if anyone fancies going walking, could be fun in a group, pick a nice London park and go for a wander.

Hey, well done on the loses, i have my first WW weigh in tomorrow-scared lol

How's your week been? My 1st weigh in is tomorrow-EEK

My 1st weigh-in is tomorrow but i've noticed i'm not on the list, may i join in please? :-) I'd like 14lbs for my target

Are you enjoying it?

Thank you!

Thank you! Nervous but exciting, hopefully this really will be my last fat summer lol

Room for one one? I'm attending my first class tomorrow and I'd like to aim for 10lbs please

I'm ex slimming world and will be attending my first class tomorrow. Slimming world doesn't curb my terrible binging and portion control -:(

Change of plan, decided to try weight watchers and i've found a sunday class. Double whoop!

Oh 8-9 st at least to lose for me, i'm in Edmonton. How about yourselves? Slimming World starts next week for me

Perfect thread for me, my Project 30 starts Saturday when i start Slimming World-again lol I'm currently a size 26/28/30(top) and would love to get down to a 16 by next November. We can do it!

Hi, I live in North London but would definitely be up for meeting people from all over London. Maybe we could pick a big London park and go for walks etc at the weekend. Really just want to make myself move lol

Hi all, Newbie here, well i joined this site over 2 years ago but still haven't got my arse into gear. I'm a size 26/28 currently and would like to get to a size 16, i'll still be overweight at that size but i'd be comfortable. Really enjoyed reading back this thread and look forward to...

Ello Ello Ello! Hope everyone is well, sorry for being awol during the week, i make sure i check in my weigh ins but not had time to banter :( So, i lost 2lbs this week, i'm starting to stray a little, i know i could be doing a lot better. Hope you are all fine and dandy xx

Hey all, Sorry for being slow. So, i only lost 1.5lbs, i really need to pull my socks up, i want to get my 1st stone award ideally next week. Good luck to the Wednesday weighers xxx

I was even eyeing up popcorn kernals today in my cupboard, i'd love a big bowl of hot salty popcorn lol And yeah, going into work early tomorrow, so i can finish at 2 and then family are over for dinner.

Yeah, sorting stuff out for the car boot sounds good. I foolishly agreed to do overtime at work tomorrow, so at least that will keep me busy lol

How about having a DVD night maybe? It's sad but i am actually going to mop later, i've saved that as something to do lol Do you have plans for tomorrow at least?

Oh you are preaching to the choir Surzy, i'm sat just wasting time on the internet bored lol I need a hobby :p what was you supposed to be up to today? I spent the day making a beef stew and just tidied and went shopping.

Ello everyone-happy weekend! Hope everyone is doing well, been fairly good so far, i did slip up and have some baklava but apparently it's 4 syns per piece (i will double check that though) so i've had my days worth of syns already lol Fingers crossed for a lighter week xxx

Are we counting today's losses in Feb, as essentially the week started in January, am i being fussy? lol

Congrats Picklepud!! Great Loss :) And all sizes go zumba, my sis and mum go and they are size 26 and 22 respectively and love it. Ignore the yummy mummies in their designer leotards and have fun grooving to the beats lol

Ladies and gents!!! Sorry for being awol. So, last tuesday (my first weigh in after glasgow) and i put on a mammoth 8.5lbs (i bought homemade fudge, tut). So tonight i weighed in and lost........ 7.5lbs. So that's brings me to a 9.5lbs loss in 4 weeks, still happy but i've learnt from my...

Morning ladies (and lad lol) How are we all? I've resigned myself to a small loss this week-don't ask! I'm looking forward to seeing the damage on Tues and then getting my arse into gear, been away and not been able to cook for myself is no good. The only consolation was when i went into...

Katoof: Well done hun!!!! And i am going to try work out the award thing, if i can do it, i'll be back lol MadMazy: Good luck!!

Hi, Just wandered if anyone in these areas fancied meeting up for evening or weekend walks-i am no way ready for any real fitness lol Any ideas of gentle activities welcome aswell

Ello wee lassies, i am back from Edinburgh. Had a lovely time. I did foul up at the station today, i was so cold whilst waiting for my train i got a big cornish pasty-eek! Otherwise, i have been pretty good, so back to basics for the next 4 days. Going to read through all the posts i missed...

Morning ladies, Madmazy: You make me laugh LOL Edinburgh is lovely, I had a lazy evening but I'm going to head out and do a bus tour I think. Good luck tonight! Thinking about lunch, might try find out if there is a low syn subway option I can go for. Caroline: Congrats on the excellent...

Ello ladies!! I'm in Edinburgh! I can't remember who asked but I can access the site on my blackberry but through the Opera browser (you'll need to download it). I was good, there is a lovely italian cafe next door and I perved over the whole menu before opting for a paultry jacket potato LOL...

Red riding hood, i have perved on that burger on many occasions, i will make that next weekend!! It isn't quite the wetherspoons gourmet burger i love but it's near!

lol i take it you've tried it Anna. I do like the hi fi lemon bar though, but for 6 syns (after B choice used)-not worth it at all

I love slimming world, if you follow the rules it works a treat. As for the rude woman, the consultant should really be saying something, it's hard enough attending and then you have some bint being mean, it's unacceptable!

Cupcakes, welcome into the rather ample bosom of our group lol How are you finding slimming world?

Madmazy, you gotta do a bg fat steak with wedges, mmm lol

Mmmmmm frozen, even better *dribbles* lol

Oh some slimming world food is great, i love making chow mein, you can throw in so much stuff and i love slimming world wedges. For some weird reason, the syn free chips don't cut it.

You and me both MadMazy lol I have tried a slimming world cheesecake recipe before, it was quite as it should be but a good replacement.

It's like crisp bread but looks like a brown scourer pad lol

Knowing slimming world, it's either made with weetabix or that god awful scan bran lol Don't be tricked by the name lol when i attend next, i'll ask the group

Madmazy, i do struggle to get my veggies and fruit in, it's not that i don't like them but it's just not what i would pick frst lol Bugsy, that sounds yum. In my first ever class, they were talking about making a curly wurly cake, i didn't investigate though

I'll be fine by tomorrow Anna but thank you. At the moment, i'm tucking into roasted chicken and salad (rescue plan lol)

Yes, we contacted the main scheme last week before the letter turned up and there was no trace. So there are two more other schemes to check to confirm the scumbag didn't register with the scheme. And Madmazy, thank you for the advice! I am exactly the same with my healthy extras, bread makes...

Ladies, i had a set back last night. But i'm over it and plodding forward, just means i have to see syn free for a few days, but being away in Edinburgh should solve that. I was not going to mention it, but i think it's important we do, i probably blitzed 30=40 syns. Had bad news, previous...

Barney, great minds think alike, i was just about the recommend the laughing cow extra light, they with them in your mash, you really won't feel like you are missing the butter. Evening all: What a tremendous loss, i wish i could grab it and take it all off me at once but i must learn how to...

I know that feeling, going to have some sugar free jelly with a muller and go bed. Good night and good luck to the Friday weigh in people!

Well done PJplatts! That's excellent, keep up the good work!

January Challenge (10lbs a month) BigBlackBird (10/10lbs) Achieved! 10.5lbs MadMazy (10/10lbs) Achieved! 13lbs MrsHainsworth2B (5.5/10lbs) 5.5lbs Bugsy30 (5/10lbs) 5lbs Do it like that Lesley?

Yeah, i was thinking i'd stick to the rotiserrie chicken if they do that in there, or i could grab a small roll, lots of ham and salad (i'm packing a plate and cutlery aswell lol). Well done again for a wonderful result MadMazy!

I plan to do lots of walking next week, i bought a countdown when i joined but booked a week off as it would be too much hassle to find a class in Edinburgh and i'd probably get lost trying to find it lol I have a wii fit collecting dust, but for now, i have a exercise dvd, i just need to take...

I'm off to Edinburgh on Monday for 3 nights, any suggestions of things i can eat for lunch as i won't have access to a microwave or anything. I won't be dining out in the evenings as i am going alone (sobs), so i googled and my hotel is really near a sainsburys, so in theory, i could live on...

Madmazy! For the first time ever, i am speechless lol Just so happy for you :-) x

MadMazy, i bow down to you! AMAZING! Simply amazing lol I take it next week's goal is 1lb? lol

LessofLou, if you can, fight the temptation to weigh yourself somewhere else. Your dinner sounds yum, i had a extra easy day and made spag bol, howevever no salad (tut, i ran out of lettuce). Do you feel that you haven't been eating enough or have you felt hungry?

Dawnynne, welcome :-) Caroline, that sounds just awful, how long did you manage to stay on CD for?

Thank you all so much! I got 4 days in Edinburgh to deal with next week, so no weigh in next Tuesday. Is it sad i googled the nearest sainsburys so i can go there for fruit and yoghurt every day (wish my hotel was stocked with a fridge lol) Liv82: Well done, that's fantastic. I've been...

Hello ladies!! Wow, i don't read this for a day and some much happens! MrsHainsworth2b and Anna_Vixen: Well done on your fantastic losses!!! Anna you have reached target already and MrsH, you only have 5 to go to it :D

Oh LessofLou, no bowing down please, if i do that it will take me ages to get back up lol Your day sounded good and your dinner delish, i might just skip spag bol for thursday and make a chow mein tomorrow!

Bugsy: Yeah, definitely not under eating, i'd be mega grumpy lol Sounds weird but i am eating more now than i did when i was off plan. Does anyone else find that?

Most definitely Caroline4013 - i saw the numbers go down the weighing scales and i was delighted. Even though i have done slimming world before successfully, you still doubt you can eat what you like and still lose. Really look forward to hearing how you get on :-) It's my flatmate's...

Natalierobertson: Wishing you all the best for tomorrow :-)

Bugsy: Well i have a mullerlight for breakfast, lunch i have a uncle bens rice (the spicy mexican one for 4 syns) with salad and dinner could be homemade spag bol, grilled chicken breasts with a HEAPPPP of syn free potato wedges, i love chicken, so maybe 3-4 pieces with salad or more uncle...

I love putting those laughing cows in my mashed potatoes, makes it so creamy and cheesy and that with some baked beans is delish!

MrsHainsworth2b: Thank you! Your dinner sounded scrummy Taffy: Thank you! If you want the up to date books, a lot of people sell them on ebay for a fraction of the cost :-)

No exercise at all Bugsy30, just shows how taking all that tasty junk out of my life can make such a huge impact lol Looking forward to hearing how you do on Thursday :-) x

I know SW, i did it around 2/3 years ago and lost nearly 4st and then, unfortunately, i got bored and let life get in the way. I love extra easy, lots of meat and the carbs with it fill you up. Home made spag bol tomorrow with a huge salad-can't wait. Katoof: Wishing you all the best for...

Hi all, Just wanted to say i had my first weigh in today and i lost 10.5lb-so pleased! Good luck to everyone x

I'm have gammon steaks, eggs with grilled tomatoes and mushrooms and beans

Bev and Anne, sorry for the very slow reply. Bev, well done on the weight loss, i was looking at Gymophobics just opposite Sydenham Station but the feedback i have had is quite mixed. I will check out the Spa though, i've been past it so many times but never looked into what is offered there...

treatment

Hi all, Wonder if i could join aswell, i have about 12st to lose and i joined Slimming World on Tuesday. Good luck to everyone!

Hi Diane, The Zumba for the Wii isn't out to Feb/April apparently. There is a zumba class near me too but i definitely don't think i am cut out for a 1hr class of that yet lol

Hi, Redirect this thread if i've posted in the wrong section but i am looking for a slimming world /exercise buddy in SE London. I have a lot to lose (around 10st)so it would be fun to have some company for the bumpy journey! I am aiming to rejoin SW in the first week of January and join...

Hey, The hunt continues for a buddy, but i won't give up, i don't think i could face joining a gym alone but i will tackle an aqua aerobics class from January. I will be rejoining SW from Jan. Was a member for about a year and a half 2 years ago, lost nearly 4 st and got a bit lost and...

I love making my own special fried rice, full of meat, prawns, veggies and really flavoursome!

I have to say, i adore the Uncle Bens rices, they vary in syns but they are still fairly low and super convienent and it's great with a big salad and some grilled meat.

Hi, Just wondered if anyone knew if there was a exercise/slimming buddy section on here? And also, has anyone tried the zumba game for the wii? I'm tempted to get it :D Many thanks

Posted in wrong area. Please can it be moved to the bargains thread please.

Please move to bargains thread as i can't delete thread Hi, Tesco Raw King Prawns 250g are currently half price at only £2.50!!! A super price for these i think. I love using them in my syn free special fried rice or i marinade them and grill them :D
