It is lazy that I have one, I know but me and hubby work full time and just wanted some time back for ourselves. We found a lady who runs a cleaning service for £12 hr so she started cleaning for us a few weeks back. It's an odd set up as she comes with 2 other cleaners and the three of them all...

I'm struggling today, day 1 was easy but day 2 isn't. It's weird, I'm headachey and craving junk. I know this is normal as my body adjusts to a new diet. It will pass, I've been here before!

Size 14 in most shops. But I tend to find that I'm size 14 waist but size 12 legs. The joys of being apple shaped! I'm size 14-16 top. I tend to avoid jeans for this reason and stick to leggings and tunics/long tops. The strange thing is that when I was a stone and a half lighter about 5 years...

Hi all, I'm a Monday weigher too! I started yesterday but weighed this morning to get my start weight, 11stone 6.5lb. I'll come back next Monday to hopefully post a loss

Hi, don't worry about the 6lb gain, a lot is likely to be water retention from the drinking and I bet most will be off again by next week. New year's eve is going to be my next challenge as I'm going for an Indian and some drinks but going to try and go for the lighter options! Good luck for...

I've weighed this morning and I'm 11 stone 6.5. Monday morning will be my weigh in day each week. Bring on next Monday!

First day done and I did it. Need to keep this up, caught sight of myself in the mirror when I was sat on the bed. I couldn't believe the size of my middle. My weight has got out of control. Need to weigh too so I know my start weight. Going to do it in the morning, I'm very scared but will take...

Hi Catherine, I've done all three plans and red works best for me. I tend to lose an average of 2lb a week but on green/ee I am lucky if I lose 1lb. I'm impatient lol so sticking with red! I can see why ee is now the main plan though as it is easier to fit into most people's lifestyle. Good luck...

Hi all, I first signed up to this site on this same day 5 years ago and by the end of February had lost a stone. This time I'm heavier, I've not weighed yet but know I'm at least 11 stone 8. I lose best on red days and hopefully this diary can keep me on track. Good luck all with your losses...

I am not very good this week at posting my diary!! But I was brave and weighed myself this morning, 11 stone 7.5lb. That is the heaviest I have been. My problem is I am not proportioned, I have small arms and legs and then all the weight on my middle, I look like an egg man :-/ I know people my...

Thankyou sugarfairy :-) Tuesday I couldn't post as I was away on a conference all day until late. As a result I was eating what was available, so a bit of a nightmare. I managed to be as as good as possible, managed to have a wholemeal chicken salad sandwich with a fat free dressing. I also...

There is a new plan now as well as the propoints plan called simple start which then becomes filling and healthy after the first fortnight. The whole plan is on their website. If you are happy with propoints and have the stuff then probably no need to pay to do it online. I think most products...

I've been on this plan a week and so far it is the easiest of all plans I have followed. I previously lost the most weight on sw but become bored, then I managed to lose a bit on ww pp but was quite often hungry and did not make good food choices. I have a sweet tooth really badly and...

I was the same, weighed on day 6 and was the same weight, but day 7 had dropped 3lb. I have also in the past had no loss or just 1lb in the first week but then had a massive loss in week 2. From my experience of lots of dieting, I would say that even if you don't lose anything this week, don't...

I too am a weightwatchers F & H convert! Have always leaned towards sw in the past because on ww pp I just eat loads of rubbish and use all my points. I also love the fact that you can have more breads and cereal with WW FH. The other difference is that everything is wholemeal with ww so you get...

Hello, well first weigh in today and pleased to report a 2lb loss. Is it wrong that I hoped for more? Normally the first week people have bigger losses but I can't complain and can hopefully be back in the 10 stones for next Monday.

I am a Monday weigher, first wi tomorrow morning, I am doing ww from home on pp. I have off on plan most of this year but after a good couple months break, this time I am feeling focused and hoping for a loss tomorrow morning!!

I had a chicken kebab from the takeaway. It was the chicken breast chunk one on the skewers that is grilled and put in a pitta with salad. I couldn't get a straight pp value anywhere, seems to range from 12-16pp so I went for 16pp to hopefully be safe!!

I feel your pain, I don't exercise but still feel hungry on 26pp. Are you awarding yourself enough activity points? The only tips I can really offer, which have helped me are to include lots of vegetables or salad with every meal. Also protein is much more filling for longer so perhaps...

I have lost successfully on both plans and did sw first. It depends if you are planning on doing simple start or propoints as simple start should be an easy transition as they are similar plans. I went from sw to propoints and it was hard because it went against everything I knew, suddenly I...

Soleros are 3pp each or 5pp for two, which I think is good. McCains Skinny oven fries are 6pp for 100g cooked weight. This is quite a decent portion and I do them in my airfryer and they taste like real skinny chips. Potatoes are my biggest shocker, which I am sure have probably been mentioned...

Didn't get around to updating my diary yesterday as had a hectic one, but it wasn't a bad day. I am having this evening off for New Year today, going to be good today but will have a curry and some drinks this evening. I will then be updating properly for 2014! I jumped on the scales this...

I found that overindulging this Christmas has made me feel rubbish, I had planned on getting back to sw after New Year but the heartburn, feeling slightly sick and also having the most bloated stomach has been too much. So I got back on it today and feel so much better already. I have gained 5lb...

Hello all, I am rejoining sw for the new year. I am going to aim high and say 10lb as I have gained 5lb over Christmas which I find normally drops off quickly again once back on sw :-) Good luck to everyone, hope you have a great 2014 and reach your goals.

Good luck with your restart! I am also restarting today after an indulgent Christmas. Am almost sick of food now :-) I haven't been brave enough to weight myself yet but know I have about 2 stone to lose. Look forward to reading your diary.

13lb is what I need to lose. I would like to do it by my wi on Monday 9 December. So that will be 9 weeks from 1st wi. Think it is achievable, just need to keep my willpower up! :-) I don't want to be in the position I was after last Christmas, I was 11 stone 6 and couldn't believe it. If I can...

Hello, I am trying to calculate the pp value of Batchelors mild cheese n brocollio pasta n sauce. However, I am confused because on the back of the packet it has nutritional values per 100g and then for a portion made as per instructions. I am confused because I don't know if made per...

Well I did it this morning and jumped on and was pleasantly suprise. I thought I was going to be about 11 stone but I was 10 stone 10.5lb. That means I have put on 3.5lb since I stopped ww in June. I thought it would be so much worse as I have really been eating so much junk. That 3.5lb has...

Well done, that is such an achievement to lose 2 stone in just over a month :-) Thank you both for the support!!

I need to be brave and weigh myself this morning. When I last did ww in early summer I went from 11 st 5 to 10 st 7 in 5 weeks. Since stopping I haven't weighed myself again :-/ I am really scared to jump on, I can feel round my middle I've gained weight and am worried I'll cry when I see what...

That must be why I'm addicted to icecream!! I am so pleased no Dominoes deliver to my town. We used to get them all the time where we used to live and it was lethal! Pizza, chicken wings and their delicious cookies were my staple at one point. Funny thing is I used to weight 10 stone then and...

Sounds like some nice treats Serena. Look forward to your WI result on 14th :-D x

lol well it's an icecream type lolly that is choc and was in a Tesco lolly multipack. I think you could say a bit like a feast lolly. Wasn't sure how to describe it ! x

Hi Serena, well done for being so determined and 0.5lb is still a loss. I hope using some weeklies speeds things up for you and you get to enjoy some extra treats too :-) I know when I did sw I used to lose more if I ate my syns so I guess ww works the same way. I find it really difficult to eat...

Well I'm back after a few days off plan :-/ Weighed this morning and have luckily not gained, well not yet anyway. So starting fresh today with WI on Mondays now. Still feel like my heads not quite in it but I am determined not to put it all back on!! xx

The rice crispy squares came out as 4pp each. Well I did step away from the wotsits so didn't go over my pp but I literally only can have 26pp a day now for the remainder of the week. Plus another spanner in the works is that I have found out I am going for a posh meal on Friday night and it...

Thanks hun, it was lovely but didn't touch the sides! I ended up having 2 rice crispie squares and some wotsits, I have basically used all of my weeklies now and still could eat more. I did so well last month at this time but for some reason I am so hungry I cannot cope aaahhhh! It is the...

I know how it feels, getting back in to the right frame of mind is difficult but it gets easier after a few days I always find. I have had a terrible weekend so really need to get back to it tomorrow properly. Good luck, are you starting a diary?x

oh sorry hun, what a doughnut I am. I was reading your start weight as being a 5lb loss! Too much red wine last night I think :-/ xx

Thank you Serena, I was just looking at your weekly losses, it is funny how you had a lower loss in week 3 just like me! you lost half a pound and I had 1 pound. So hopefully you will follow the same pattern as me and have higher losses in week 4 and 5!! xx Well done on your losses so far over...

I totally agree it feels great. My weight is always my sides and tummy and I gain weight very easily but also lose it easily. I think the more weight that needs to come off the easier it is. Once down to about 10 stone, I think it will really slow down but we'll see. I originally came on here to...

Thanks Serena :-) I used 2 ap of the 4 I earned in the week. I used about 15 weeklies the night before WI. I think looking at my previous weeks that it makes no difference if I eat all my weeklies as I still seem to have averaged the same loss. New week today, I think I went over pp yesterday...

I didn't get time yesterday so get online and post my diary, I had my 26pp but have a confession that I had a minor blip in the evening and had a snickers and a rather large glass of red wine. So they will have to come out of my weeklies and I will have to be extra good today as maybe only got...

only two more sleeps until wi because I am weighing one day early on Saturday morning! I really would like to see 10 stone 7ish on the scales....obviously a day earlier may make a difference but I am also interested to see if my losses are any bigger when I have gone a week with just the 26pp...

Hope it all went well hun, hope to have an update soon :-) x

haha I have googled my symptoms so many times and convinced myself I have conditions. If you are diabetic, it would likely to be type 2 and with that one you don't tend to crave sugar, but you do tend to want to drink more than usual and go to the loo more. You could have something simple like a...

Good luck for tomorrow, I think you'll do great. You are so good and stick to it without cheating :-) Hope you have a great day tomorrow x

You're doing brilliantly and I am sure you will work around those meals perfectly well :-) That's the thing about ww, you can still enjoy yourself. I cannot wait to indulge on Saturday, all that weekly pp saving will be sooo worth it!! x

Totally agree. Kodak were clever when they said their cartridges are only 6.99 because you still have to get the colour one for about £15. I can never work out why the colour runs out when I print on black only. Kodak apparantly say that using black print still involves some colour. Big rip off...

Thanks hun you're absolutely right. My friends uses all her ap and still loses. I think they are rightly there to use but some people find they slow their losses while others still lose. I think it depends on the person I also think it is easy to overestimate ap, I have a friend who gives...

I am 10stone 9.5 after yesterdays wi. Last time on sw diet I went from 11 stone 1 to 10 stone 2 before going off plan forever :-( I was so close as well! This time I am on wi, start weight was 11 stone 5.5, four weeks later and I am 10 stone 9.5 and actually cannot wait to see 9 stone something...

Aww hope you feel ok again soon. You are doing so well and keeping active by going out and about all the time :-) I think with your picnic and the fruit, if you hadn't have eaten those, you might have been tempted to eat something with points so you did good!! You never have your weeklies either...

Thanks guys, I had 2 of my activity points but no more. I did couch 2 5k last summer and felt amazing. I gave up when it got cold and have promised myself I'd start again this year but so far I've been too lazy! I love the summer months so much, the light mornings and evenings, the warmer...

oh poor you still suffering. I hope you feel better soon xx

Chocolate in the freezer...such a good idea but I have not tried it yet and I really need to!! I am a total chocoholic so much more than a savoury person, I don't think I could go a day without eating something sweet! x

Thanks guys for the support :D I was just wondering if anyone earns and uses activity points? My friend on ww always has walks to earn extra points and she is still losing but she has a lot more to lose than me. I have done 1 hour of exercise today and as a result am much more hungry but am...

Ok so I am pleased to announce that I have had my 4th wi this morning and have lost 2lb, this means I am now 10 stone 9.5 and 10lb lighter than I was 4 weeks ago when I started. My challenge was to get to 10 stone 5 by next Saturday, which realistically is not going to be possible as I am...

Thanks for the advice, I think I will go with the outfit as planned, I have asked a couple of other female guests as well and a couple say they are wearing white suit jackets with coloured dresses or skirts and tops so it does seem that the general rule is not to be all in white. That sounds...

On the subject of weddings, what are peoples thoughts on wearing black and/or white to weddings? When I got married there were ladies who wore all black dresses, one who wore a white dress and a couple of others who had half white on with another colour. I never noticed or considered it on the...

I am near St Mellion which is half way between Saltash and Callington. I normally have about try and have 10pp to cover breakfast and lunch, then allow 12-15 for my evening meal and have enough left for a snack in the evening. I think what brings up my points are my constant meetings in Costa...

I agree it is the best pizza place. I am not a big fan of most takeaways which is good, the only ones I do like are an Indian but luckily the only one in my town is rubbish. I also like a chicken doner but my kebab shop don't do these, only shish in a pitta which just isn't the same. I have...

thanks and I agree, it does make you feel more hungry and let your guard down, not to mention the empty calories and the water retention weight that you temporarily put on! I agree, it really does slow weight loss. I am going to be such a lightweight at this wedding :-)

Your diary is so healthy compared to mine lol, I am so not making enough use of the free fruit and veg I can have! I hope the physio helps, I had some last year for a neck problem and it did really help a lot. They seemed to just be able to pinpoint the pain. Have a good weekend x

I know this is soooo random but when I went to Amsterdam I noticed how expensive the food and drink is compared to the UK. Well the cost of most things really. Is that because I was in the capital or is it like that everywhere? Do you get paid more than us to compensate?! Hehe sorry I have...

That's amazing, well done and congratulations!! Long may the losses continue :-) I think you would be fine to have some weeklies if you do feel that you want some, it doesn't seem to have affected my losses so I am sure you would be ok. You do have some excellent willpower though lady to stick...

I am not great on fillings for spuds but in the past on diets I have had fillings of tuna and vlf mayo, prawns and vlf mayo or dressing, cheese, beans, homemade coleslaw (which can actually be point free-cabbage, carrot and onion mixed with vlf mayo...if you have less than 1 tbs of the mayo it...

You've done brilliantly and to lose all that weight in just a few days is fantastic. You don't have very long at all then until goal, I was 9 stone 12 when I got married and it was a very happy weight for me too, I can't wait until I see 9 stones on the scale, think that will be the first time...

I had one without syrup the other day, it is funny because a small one is about 60 kcals and the medium is 90ish so they would both actually come under 2pp!! Anyway without syrup it was quite bitter and had no sweetness at all. It was well worth the vanilla shot for 1 extra pp :-) I have a...

Thursday Crackerbread and choc phili (3pp) 3 Ryvitas (3pp) 2 small iced cappuccino with vanilla syrup from Costa (6pp) jacket potato, clover lighter, cheese and ham (13pp) pistachios (6pp) 26pp 35/49pp

I love chocolate philidelphia. It tastes really chocolately and lush. I have been buying the ones that come in a pack of 4 mini pots of 30g each which saves me weighing it and keeps them fresh if I don't want to eat it all within a couple of days. They have been half price in Tesco-about 70pish...

Aw poor cat, I love my cats so much and whenever they have been ill it is so upsetting. Hope kitty does get better soon. x Migraines are the worse, I get them but only very rarely and know how horrible they are. I hope it quickly clears x

I just ate some cherries, they are so delicious I think they are my favourite fruit. I didn't have any weeklies yesterday and don't think I will today either as still got 6pp left and it's nearly 8.30pm! Bet you can't wait to wi on Friday, I am a proper serial weigher and can't resist jumping on...

Wednesday Breakfast and lunch were crackebreads, choc Phili, ham (10pp) Jacket potato, beans and salad (10pp) cherries breakfast biscuits (6pp) 26pp I thought I'd use my last 6pp on the breakfast biscuits in the evening! I wanted a snack and something sweet but decided that this might fill be...

Thanks guys for your kind words and advice. I think I might be a bit of a lightweight when it comes to drinking by then so I think alternating between alcohol and soft drinks is a really good idea. If I think about the 49 weeklies plus my 26pp that is about 3000 kcals which I think should quite...

I will def come and subscribe aishling. Today I am thinking ahead as a week on Saturday I have a wedding to go to. I haven't bought my outfit yet because part of me is hoping I might just lose a few more inches by then. I think next week I'll have to buy something, at the start of my ww journey...

I am sure you will do fantastic on Friday. Looking forward to hearing what you decide on for lunch. I have the problem you mentioned about forgetting to eat sometimes. I drive around all day between appointments which means sometimes I don't get a lunch break. It is bad though because I get home...

Thanks hun. I'm so much better for it too. Pleased to have you reading, will have to check out your diary :-)

Aw thanks guys you've made me feel so much better. I have been much healthier today and had a lovely salad for tea. Feeling more positive again and my little mini aim is to see single figures after the 10 stone when I wi on Sunday. So that means I can weigh in at 10stone 9.5lb max hehe!!!

Thanks for your support :-) started the day with hot water and lemon and trying to remember to drink. I'm so busy rushing around all day that I often forget to drink. Tuesday Crackerbread and choc phili (3pp) Egg cress sandwich (7pp) 30g choc phili pot (2pp) pistachios (1pp) ham, new potatoes...

Ooh so might pinch your lunch idea. I agree that you shouldn't eat weeklies for the sake of it. I am hoping that as I progress on the plan, my stomach might shrink and I can half my weeklies. You are doing so well and I hope the sports day is fun, do they still have parents races :-) I remember...

Thanks both of you. I have used 17 of my weeklies today!! Feeling a bit of a failure and ate loads of grapes which came to about 300 kcals worth. I know they are point free but they are quite high in calories still if you eat lots so I feel I've messed up. I took both your advice and have drunk...

I felt the same on sw, I could never go out for meals. Plus when I wanted to buy lunch I was buying packs of chicken and stuff because it was so difficult. I had a sandwich today from Tesco (a Tesco own one) and the pp value was on it as 7pp. But on my calculator it came out as 6pp. So either...

Monday Breakfast biscuits (6pp) Mocha (4pp) Prawn sandwich (6pp) cheese, grapes and chutney (7pp) choc lolly (3pp) Duck and orange, mash and veg (17pp) 26pp 30/49pp

Thanks, I just hope I lose more next week!! I'm so impatient. It's funny because I was on sw before and never had the big losses in the first two weeks like with ww but my loss every week was always 2lb, sometimes 3lb. I do prefer the flexibility of ww though and am finding it easier to stick...

I was drinking one in the morning and then about tea time. Just a slice of lemon in hot water. Hi Lisa, you're doing so well with your loss. Do you have your weeklies? I'm eating all of mine at the moment. I'm going to ser how the losses go over the next couple weeks and if slow I might cut...

Sounds like you're doing really well so far, I haven't been out for a meal yet on plan as I worry about my willpower. I have a wedding in a couple weeks and not sure how I'll point my meals that day and the drink!! What day will you WI?

Good luck for tomorrow :-)

Another 4.5lb to go which is possible in two weeks so I'll see how it goes. One thing I didn't do this week which I did in week 1 and 2 is drink hot water with a slice of lemon every day. May be coincidence but think I'll give it ago this week and see if I lose more for week 4!!

Thankyou both. I think the first couple weeks was mainly water too so the 1lb I can be confident is all fat :-) well that's what I'm telling myself anyway. Not sure I'll get the last 6.5lb off in the next 2 weeks as targeted but if I can get to 10 st 7 I'll be overjoyed!!x

Honk for the last 3 weeks!! That's how long I've been on ww now and haven't gone over my daily and weeklies once. Times I have wanted to binge I have used my weeklies. Loving ww so far and finding it almost too easy!!

5ft5 10 stone 12.5lb and size 14, sometimes 16 top due to large boobs!! 12 bottoms are perfect on my legs but too small on the waist where as 14s fit my waist but are big on the leg!! I'm a typical apple shape :-/

Hi Ozlozz and thanks, I don't feel any slimmer despite losing half a stone and my clothes feel no different. I think maybe it is just water but hope to see some results in my clothes in the next couple of weeks. I feel sometimes like how am I going to lose any more weight when I am eating so...

Hi guys, I am a Sunday weigher and today is my second wi, I am doing ww pp from home. So today I lost 3lb wooo, last week was 4lb, making it half a stone in a my first fortnight. Good luck all x

Thanks hun. So pleased but think now I have had the initial 2 weeks of big losses it will start to slow down now but keeping my fingers crossed for no less than 2lbs a week for the next 3 weeks!! I got some Boursin from the supermarket as they are on offer at the moment for half price at 80p...

Hi OzLoss!! i was buzzing to lose 4lbs as when I was on sw before, I only used to lose 2lb in week :-) Although even 2lb is good, but 4lb is amazing!! Had a bad munchie weekend, lots of sweet cravings and ended up using lots of my weeklies so must be good now. I hope you enjoy the plan, I am...

I am only one week into ww but have found it very easy to follow and haven't cheated. I am following the propoints plan and am surprised at how I can actually still have normal meals and some chocolate and stay within my points. I lost 4lb in the last week so it seems to be working for me. I...

I think it depends on how quickly you lose weight normally on ww? You only need to lose just over 2lb a week so it is possible, I too have a wedding in 4 weeks and am aiming to lose another 10.5lb in that time so am in a similar situation to yourself :-) I tend to lose weight more quickly if I...

someone may probably already have said this but icecream is mine. I had a massive bowl of strawberries yesterday and 50g of clotted cream and strawberry icecream worked out as 3pp. It seemed like a decent portion of Icecream too. Tonight I had 100g of the same icecream (with strawberries again!)...

That's the great thing about ww, being able to have takeaways :-) I live in a small cornish town and we only have two Chinese takeaways but both got given 1 star on their recent food hygiene inspection, this means 'urgent action required'. This is a good thing because I haven't wanted to buy...

Bank holiday munchies today but I am thinking it is the start of the week with lots of weeklies so a few treats won't hurt.....:-)

Weighed myself this morning as doing ww at home and WI is every Sunday morning. Helps stop me going too crazy on the weekends!! Anyway very pleased as have lost 4lb this week. Taking me from 11stone 5.5 to 11 stone 1.5. My mini challenge is to weigh 10 stone 5 by 1 June for a wedding...

Weigh in tomorrow gulpppppp

I noticed that when I went to Amsterdam!! But chips with mayo is so nice :-D

I have a ribeye steak but no nutritional info is given on the packaging for me to calculate. The pack says it is 8oz and 227g. If anyone know the pp for this weight or any weight, I would be so grateful. Thankyou x

That's a good idea!! I am so bad at hopping on the scales, have done it every day this week so far and have dropped weight each day. I know it is just water in the first week but it's still quite motivating. I was 11 stone 1 and a quarter this morning, so after 4 days of ww I had already dropped...

I have done both. SW is good because it educates you to choose better foods but it does let you have unlimited portions. This is good for not counting or feeling deprived but does not educate you on portion control. That said, people still lose weight so there is nothing wrong with bigger...

Hi I am going it alone. I went to a class a few months back and started but gave up within the week. I still have the plan and know I am on 26pp and have 49pp weekly. I have downloaded a points calculator onto my phone and its suprisingly easy following it with this. Just completed day 3 and...

Tuesday 3 Ryvita and ww salmon and lemon mayo (6pp) 3 Ryvita (3pp) Small Costa iced Cappuccino (2pp) Pasta, meatballs n cheese (15pp) Crunchie (5pp) 26pp 16/49pp

I did well on sw and lost a stone in 2 months but in the long term I couldn't stick to it because it is inflexible. I ended up going off the rails and gaining it back with interest. I am hoping ww is more sustainable in the long term as it means I can still go out for meals :-) well day 3 and...

Hi there, my weigh in day is Sunday so only on day 2!! I do look a bit like a salmon fan don't I :-) I go through stages with it, I will get sick of it soon again I'm sure. Just eaten a crunchie bar, was soooo nice. Treats always taste so much nicer when on a diet but I feel guilty for eating...

Monday Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs (6pp) 3 Ryvita, ww salmon in lemon mayo (6pp) Bolognese, salad, grated cheese and vlf mayo (12 pp) WW choc dessert (4pp) Crunchie bar (5pp) 26pp 11/49 weekly

I used to do sw, I found only the red plan worked for me as it was harder to overeat when you are not allowed pasta and potatoes. I did well on the red plan and lost 1 stone in 2 months but soon became bored as meals were too samey and it was difficult buying lunch. I have just started ww today...

So I have piled on the pounds and am the biggest of my life. All the fat is on my middle and I resemble either a barrel or a pregnant whale depending on the light!! I am going to a wedding 1st June and really want to lose a stone by then so I am super focused....I hope. So on ww I am allowed...

So a bad night yesterday. I always have uncontrollable hunger and cravings when star week is approaching. I am trying to be back to plan today. Saturday Red Day 3 ww sausages (1.5. syns) beans (HexB) 2 frylight eggs

1lb off for me this week. A slow couple of weeks but at least going in the right direction and kinda secretly hoping that one week I will have a massive loss where it catches up :-D

1lb off for me today. Friday 400ml kara choc milk (2 x hexA) banana Sausage sandwich with ketchup (Hex B, 2.5 syns) Fat free yoghurt Well I need to come on and confess my syns/sins.... Bad night, had chocolate, icecream and red wine :-(. Totm due v sad!

Do you do different days? Last time I did it my weight loss was up and down and I was craving. I was doing EE and then swapped to red and starting losing each week.

Thursday Green day today because I wanted refried beans but will be back to red tomorrow :-D 1 alpen light (hexB) Red wine (6 syns) 3 tacos (10 syns) refried beans, grated cheese (hexA) cucumber and lettuce banana 2 ww choc pots (7.5 syns) sunbites (6 syns) 122/105 oops 17 syns over for the...

They are in the recipe section, do a search for jelly sweets. As said though they don't taste like haribo, more like very set jelly!

Funny you say that because last time I did sw and a few months in, I decided to have a treat and had one of those lind red chocolate bars and it really upset my stomach. I feel so much better, my heartburn has gone and I feel less tired too. I definitely think there are more benefits to sw that...

ooooh even better, thank you will see if I can get some :-D

I just need to share this, I am just approaching 3 weeks on plan. The last three days and I have noticed that I am no longer craving pasties, desserts, stodgy food, cakes etc... in fact my hunger levels have reduced dramatically. So for anyone who is struggling with the cravings, give it 2-3...

Answering my own question here but just checked and they are free on green and EE. Now I am a red day girl but tomorrow I am going to make an exception and have a green day!! I also checked and taco shells are 66kcals. I calculated that 2 would be 7.5 syns. So tomorrow I am having these with...

I love refried beans in tacos with salad and grated cheese? Are they free just on EE and green or red too? I am going to have some of these and syn the taco shells, very excited. Thanks for sharing this lovely little nugget :-D

I posted a similar question last week and can tell you that three weeks after starting and my headaches have gone :-) I also had an acne outbreak when I don't normally suffer with spots and am in my 30s but that too has gone!! :D

Cheers thankyou! Well I have avoided milk and cheese etc and yesterday and today tried a coffee with a drop of diary milk and I was fine. It would seem that it is only when I have a glass of milk or a latte that I am having the stomach issue. I am going to stick to the dairy free choc milks for...

Is the diamond breeze chocolate milk also a hexA? I have bought this today along with another Kara one. I wanted to give the diamond breeze a go too :-)

Mine tend to go on a malibu, things like ketchup, sweet chilli sauce etc with meals, occasionally a bit of butter, if I'm in the mood a biccy with my cuppa and very occasionally a choccy bar. I count my syns weekly and find that at the weekend I use loads and during the week I don't have as...

I count my syns weekly and use the full 15. I wi on Friday morning and that is day 1 for me. So I count 105 syns from Friday to Thursday, wi in on Friday morning and then start again for the week. At the weekend I have the breaking strain of a kitkat when it comes to treats and alcohol. So...

Honkkkkkkkk :-D After using lots of my weekly syns on Friday and Saturday I was much better today, roll on Friday wi for more weight loss I hope!!

I get days like that. Normally it is either totm or if I have had a few days where I haven't eaten much it catches up on me and I feel ravenous. I would just have something else to eat that is sw friendly and listen to your body. Have you had your HexB today? Also have you drunk enough...

I have a myspecialK one at the moment. There is always some sort of ad at the top, normally diet related e.g. weightwatchers etc. I thought they were just adverts that are paying the site 'minimins' to advertise. I could be completely wrong but on free forums like this, the people who maintain...

I haven't weighed at all this weekend, mainly because most of my weekly syns have been used this Friday and Saturday!! I am going to have to scrape by on 5 a day this week but daren't weigh myself as if I am back in the 11s I will literally cry!!! lol.....I might be brave by about Thursday or...

I have the jeans issue. Because I am apple shaped, I have a thick middle with no waist but quite small legs. So jeans that fit my legs are too tight on my waist and ones that fit my waist are too baggy on my legs :( I have to say that one fashion trend that I have always been grateful made a...

I have a gorgeous black dress from Debenhams that I bought last time I was on sw in a size 12. It was for a posh teaching award ceremony dinner type event. I had got down to 10 stone 3 and managed to get in to it but by the time the event came I was up to 10 stone 7. I did still manage to get...

I am now back in this bracket :-) 10 stone 13 so a long way to go but hoping I can achieve it well before Easter Good luck everyone x

Hi I always just used mixed herbs in it. It still tasted lovely. I experimented with lots of changes as have made it loads including beating an egg into the mince mixture, adding lemon juice, chilli sauce etc. I never use the flour as it makes no difference whatsoever and is syns for nothing. I...

Yes we can totally do this, well done with the 6lb loss..that is amazing!! I have lost 4.5lb so far, it will feel amazing to reach target by Easter especially if we get some lovely hot weather to show the loss off :-D

hehe I only found this out last week! You can have 200ml of Oatly chocolate milk or Kara Chocolate coconut milk for one HexA. You can find them in the long life milk section. I have tried both and they are nice, the Oatly one is creamy and the Kara one is more chocolately and sweet. :-D

Looks delicious, it is one recipe I've always seen but never tried. Can you taste the smash? I know it sounds silly but I once made the cheese scones but didn't like them as I just don't like the taste of smash!! I love red onion on pizza though, looks so delicious and such a treat while still...

Hi, just tried the Kara one and also very nice. It is the same consistency as the Oatly one e.g a little more watery than a normal chocolate milk. The Kara one is sweeter and more chocolately. The Oatly one is more creamy tasting. I personally like the Kara one a little bit more but I do prefer...

Hello anyone reading my diary :wavey: I hope you are having success so far this year. I have lost 4.5lb in two weeks on sw so far and don't really feel like I am on a diet. Friday nights seems to be when I slip up but hopefully counting down on the syns weekly from 105 which help me control any...

I am going to have tesco piri piri mini chicken fillets (from the chilled section) with salad and beetroot. I still have a hexB so possibly a small jacket potato to go with it or maybe some wholemeal pasta

Such great advice from everyone. I sooo agree about allowing yourself synned treats and planning ahead for meals. Think about all the food and meals that you struggle to give up and look at how you can make sw options or fit them into your syns. For me, my weakness is chocolate milkshake...
