I've lost about the same as you hun, and i'm the same - still in an 18 jean. It will come, but I think it's about shape change as well as weight loss. I've been doing lots of zumba and my legs are getting quite muscley!

Aw you're back - well done! That wall looks ace!!! I had a gain last week (my first and only a lb) but i was gutted and i'm so determined!!! I want to be slimmer when I'm back in school in Sept!! May steal your wall idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xx

I've just had it for dinner with a jacket spud - it is yummy!!!! I also stirred in an extra light laughing cow!!!

Thank you!!

Done it! Aimee - 7lbs (6lbs to lose, 1lb lost) AmyS 7lbs (5.5lbs to lose, 1.5lbs lost) AnnaR (7lb to lose, 1.5lb lost) Anna_Vixen 7lbs (5.5lbs to lose, 1.5lbs lost) BeckyT - 6lb (6lb to lose, 0lb lost) Blue*Smartie: lose 5lb (2.5lb to lose, 2.5lb lost) Buzz 10lbs (0lbs lost, 10lbs to lose)...

Can't find it anywhere, have the one with cracked black pepper?? had a bit on small water biscuits (0.5) with a tin of chickpea dahl...mmmmmmmmmmm. I didn't have much would it be counted as my HexA???? Thanks x

Ooh sorry I can't update, I'm on my phone!!!

1.5 off for me!!!

Yep, I get a bit 'egg bound' - I take a senna

I did a test and one week I ate less syns, the next week I ate my full 15! I lost 2.5lb the less syn week and 3lb the full syn week - so I know what I'll be doing from now on!!!

Can I join? I'd like to lose 7+lbs this month!!!

You can definitely syn cheese if you have used up your HexA, today I split it, I only had 2/3 dashes of skimmed in my tea, so I used 28g (rather than 42g you're allowed of low low) cheese as well. Not sure about the hexB as I only ever use it for ready brek or ww bread. (I'm fairly new myself...

Can you get slimmer of the month if it's the month you started? I only ask as I had a big weight loss, week 1, so unsure if i still qualify?

I found your diary! When is your next weigh in - good luck!!! Like I said in the other thread, i'm glad i'm on maternity, as when I go back to school, I know it's going to be harder (especially with 2 kids to ship about!) _ you're doing really well and your hair looks great!

Well, went out on weekend, stuck to Gin/Slim but did have an Indian on Fri night (dry tandoori so not too bad!) - ate all my syns every day and lost 3lb!!!!! So pleased, next week I will definitely get my stone award - hooray! Going to try and eat slightly (just 1-2) less syns a day this week...

Yes!!! I do this, and my scales do not correlate with my WI ones either!!! Arghhhh!

I'm interested too, just googled and some people are saying 9 syns?

Went out last night and had tandoori chicken ( the dry one with salad) does anyone know the syn value? Didn't have mint sauce or naan, just the meat & salad? Thanks.

Well done, it feels great!! Look at my sig, I lost 7.5lb in my first week then 2.5lb last week! Going to aim for my stone in a couple of weeks! Best if luck with it, you'll do great!!

Thanks very much x

Yeah it's going ok, had 12 on Tues, 14 on weds and 17 today so averaging out fine. Made britmum's squidgy choc cake today!! Mmmmmmm! All weekend syns will be on alcohol as going out twice, so will be really good & stick to F & SF foodwise.... Be interesting to see what I lose!

Right this week I am going to attempt to eat every one of my syns as I always have some to spare by the end of the week. Wonder if it will affect the weightloss? Next week I'll leave some spare and see which week gives me the better loss..

Thanks so much guys, hey Desireeanne - where in NZ are you from? My uncle lives in Canterbury, I went there to stay with him for a while and travelled round both islands!

Right, thought I'd start a diary in here, just to log losses, gains, how I'm feeling, new recipes etc - just a motivator really! So a bit about me, I'm 35, had my 2nd baby in 3 years 3 months ago and have a good 3-4 stone to lose. Not going to set an ultimate target yet, just small goals. My...

Just to let you know some seeded and oat breads can have up to 6 syns per slice

Thanks again Circes, you really are proving to be a fountain of knowledge!

Is it right? This is 5.5 syns A SLICE??? Before starting sw, thought this was a healthy option, does it really have more syns than a slice of White? Doesn't make sense?

Only the no added sugar ones, haven't tried ww ones? They're not next to normal ones in my Morrisons so havent come across them? Do they taste like the real deal?

I compared the nutritional values to my hubby's Honey Nut Loops and they came out better!!! The loops!

Thanks! Yes custardlipstick (ace name!) i'm nervous for tomorrow, but I have been so good, and I also don't really crave chocolate during my totm, so thats good - been on plan, so I guess if I gain then it might be water! ETA- Custardlipstick, I notice you're a teacher, I am too, currently on...

Do any of you ladies have a gain on time of the month? I've been on plan 100% but i feel bloated and 'heavy' like you do at this time, i'm not going to sneak on my scales as I want to wait till class, but did many or should i say, DO many of you lose - while they are on?

Do you go to group? I do, and i've been weighing at home this week thinking i'm not losing, but then I weighed at the gym and have def lost - perhaps avoid mid week weighing? I was amazed at how much I ate last week, abeit good healthy stuff, and still lost loads of weight!

Thanks!

Sorry hun, questioning it a bit myself, bit upset that I may be doing it wrong as I really do want to lose this baby weight, but she (my consultant) has great successes and I have to say I'm losing weight well. She also keeps on about making sure you do use your quota of syns (again, not...

I don't WANT them? I'm just doing what my consultant has told me to do? I've never done SW before so I don't know whats 'right' or 'wrong' and to be honest, that extra 15 I barely touch? I can see your point about the crap definitely, i use my syns mainly on sauces & salad cream etc rather than...

Thinking - I have just had a baby (3 months) could this be why?

I have!!!!!! I'm not massively over weight so I'm paranoid now??? My consultant has given me 15 per day plus 15 extra for the week??? 120 in total ?

Oooh enjoy, to me it's an indulgent treat especially the whole lot, so to find it's within syns is amazing!!

Even better! This is my one weakness, I can stock up on free & superfree and still have a large bowl of my comfort food occasionally! Love this plan! Thanks circes!

Oooh congrats on baby! Just noticed, I had my 2nd baby 3 months ago!!

I'm in my 2nd week too, but I would think that was good, my leader always says the superfree really helps speed up the loss. Good luck, i'm loving it too, but i think i should be more like you and fill up on superfree more

Just follow the plan - I was given 15 syns a day plus 15 extra by my consultant, so 120 a week and i probably had 100 and I lost 7.5lb! I just did what it says on the tin!!!

I ate the whole thing! Which was one packet made up with half pint of skimmed. Bearing in mind I didn't have any other 'a' that day so milk could be my hexA. Oooh 11 for whole thing.....yay!!!!!!!

This is my REAL weakness, I always have no added sugar one and use skimmed milk from HexA but I've read it's 11 syns? Is that for the whole thing??? My hubby & I had a packet each? Please don't let it be 11 for half a packet.....

I do the same, i know i have 105 but some days i'll have 6 then others 20, just do it as i go along!

How about an eton mess style dessert with raspberries, fruit, crushed meringue & Greek yoghurt. Syns would be for meringue nests, you could even blend vanilla muller with the Greek yoghurt to sweeten even more?
