    From Sole Sorce to Slimming World...

    Just wondering... I've read people say things like 'I don't have a huge weightloss, but then again I was doing mostly green days' Is it true that being on Green slows things down? I'm a veggie and won't do Red, so I am a bit worried about this... x

    From Sole Sorce to Slimming World...

    Yeah, I expect that to happen... just wondering about the sort of differences in losses that people have experienced, tbh. I know not to expect the same sort of results as SS, but some people have had really good losses on SW and I would love to hear about them :) x

    What supplementary booklets would you advise?

    I am starting SW (Green Days) next weeks and just wanted to know what extra books offer the best tips/syns advice, especially for a busy nightworker like me? OK, let me rephrase that, as it sounds dodgy :D I work nights and need easy/fast solutions when short of time... :) The lady told me...

    Hi baba... Good to hear from you... how are things? :) Thanks for your reply... you know, that is my one concern with SW - the food and my awful habit of overeating or getting bored with the 'allowed' food and scoffing my face full of Chinese :( But I really cannot face SS at the moment -...

    These are my experiences... First encounter was after we had just moved house - I was only 9 years old, and had my own room at the front of the house. These were old houses that had been standing for years... I remember having a dream - written on the wall in blood was 'Leave this house'...

    Hi... Hi LIL!!! :) I know exactly where you are coming from... I was also on Metformin (still am) and Pioglitazone, which makes CD very difficult to do, as my BS would have hit rock bottom. I hope you managed to get the Doc to take you off the other meds... once you lose your first...
