B - Beans on Toast L - Jacket Potato and Beans Banana Snacks - Pepsi Max

I have lost my motivation in the last week. Im so frustrated with my non existent weightloss. Iv with slimming world since jan and I haven't even lost a stone. It's not that I don't stick to the plan. I do rigidly. Iv been on holiday the past 2 weeks and iv lost my way. Can anyone give me any...

Thank you !! :)

1 pound off!!!! After 6 weeks of putting on and STS :) :) hopefully that cycle is broken now

Iv never thought to use weekly syns :) but I might start

I joined SW with my mum and she's exactly the same. In her first week she drank a whole bottle of baileys birthday cake and takeaway. Plus other snacks and she lost loads. Me I lost half and I stuck rigidly to the plan

I meant you don't have to weigh it all out and have say 71g of chicken. As long as it's the 2/3 your fine

I had a pint of coke then for starter potato skins with BBQ chicken. Then I had a meatball calzone. Then half of an ice cream float finished with choc fudge cake :) lovely but so synful

Ive looked through the forum and i cant seem to find a thread devoted to red days so i decided to start one :) Iv been on EE since i started and my weightloss has not been great so iv decided to mix green and red days :) Any recipes for any meals would be great :D

EE is when you can have all the free stuff on red and green but only have one healthy a & b. You dont limit pasta or rice pulses etc. xx

ah right i didnt know.. i hope its soon! :)

Thank you :) that's made my meals sooo much easier!! X

Compared to your earlier posting it sounds like your doing really well! :) well done! :) Xxx

I get bored of food easily and when I go shopping if I see something I want I never know if I should as I don't know syn value. I have the syn directory but loads of things aren't in there

I have really fallen off the wagon this weekend. Alcohol + Chinese and no food optimising :s But I'm not going to panic. Just gonna plan my week now. Also starting body magic which can't hurt. Gonna start precooking snacks so I when I go to the fridge to snack it's the good stuff. Tomorrows...

Hey dont worry if you did :) can't be as bad as what I had at my meal. I think my dessert was my weeks syns! but I can't resist choc cake :) especially choc fudge lol Xxx

Hey everyone I was thinking about contacting SW about an app for your phone iPod etc. I know there is one on iPod already but it's only to encourage new members to join. I thought if could have a food diary and also to check syns could even have a bar code scanner to save all the messing about...

I definitely belong to this thread. I'm barely losing weight and most weeks im putting on. I am EE but iv been thinking of changing to see if it effects my weightloss. It's so disheartening as I stick to the plan , my mum on the other hand eats and drinks whatever and she always seems to lose...

Don't beat yourself up :) by the sounds of it you've done really well. One slip up won't hurt it probably helped if anything as you don't want to deprive yourself or you'll relapse. It's happened to a few people I know. They stick so rigidly to their diet plan and don't indulge in what they...

Hey I'm really sorry to hear everything that's happened. I can relate to both the depression thing and the eating. I was diagnosed with depression when I was 16 and that was only when my mum forced me to go docs. I also comfort eat which has really affected my weight. Do take the pills they help...

I started SW in january 2011, my weight has gone up but never past the 12st mark. i have always been on EE so im going to try a mix of red and green. Im going to post on here so others can comment on if im doing it right or wrong. Wish me luck! :D

Lady A thank you and congratulations! thats amazing to think you could drop off so much in so little time. I will start to try reds and greens :D

All their website has is the food, no nutritional value whatsoever. I may write to them

The last few weeks i have really struggled with my weightloss, i seem to be putting on more each week and its frustrating as i stick to the eating plan, where as my mum eating muffins and drinks baileys and wine and still manages to lose easily. Its getting to the point where i dont see the...

I wish slimming world would bring out thier own range of food for people who sont have time or are out in town and wanting a snack, like WW do.

I havent been with SW long but i have picked up a few things 1. I freeze grapes.. they are really sweet and lovely to munch on as they take a while to get through :) 2. I love my milk and so each day i measure out my daily limit as to stop me going over as my HA 3.dont get too hungry as...

Wow this really helped..no one told me not to mash up my fruit and veg xx

i am definitely going to try that :) it sounds so much quicker then the normal way! Thanks! i love my chips lol xx

In our group we have been told that taking certain vitamins and drinking more milk can help with our weight loss. I thought id share this as i didnt know this. Vitamin C and Calcium - these stop the body from storing so much fat and helps pass it through the body B-12 - speeds up the...

I'm really struggling to come up with easy quick recipies. I'm 19 and i need recipies and ideas to fit around my student life. Late at night when im hungry i dont know what to snack on and sometimes an apple doesnt quite do it for me lol Does anyone have any ideas please? xxx

Pick up lots of fruit and veg :) and pretty much all meat is free as long as its lean. Thats pretty much the basic start to all of my meals

yogurts i find are good :) shape, or muller lights are free

Even better with employee discount hehe :D

this sounds really good :) and all free :):)

That sounds so good :) im going to add it to my meal planner xx
