Think it's a psychological thing knowing I only have 1st left to loose, I'm currently at 12st 1/2lb get WI tomorrow I've done it 100% this week so hope to be in 11's tomorrow!

    SAS Log

    I'm totally gobsmacked with your consultant. Your weight lose all depends on a number of factors not just what you eat, everyone is different and we all loose weight at different rates. I'd report her to SW HQ as she is bang out of order.

    Why are you losing weight?

    For health reason, I have high blood pressure, my family medical history isn't good was a year tomorrow that my cousin died at the age of 38 of natural causes (her heart stopped).

    NSV sabotage!!!

    It's all to do with marketing and who they are aiming at, take Topshop & DP's they are both owned by Arcadia yet the sizes are worlds apart. This is because DP is aimed at women aged 30 and above where Topshop is aimed at below 30's. Really sizing is a double edged sword when you are on the...

    Syn use, too much bread?

    Everyone is different we all have our so called trigger foods. I love bread and pasta but they not so keen on me and even if I have bread just as my HEB it has a detrimental effect on my weight loss. The joys of SW is that it's so flexible that we can tailor the plan to our individual needs.

    When to give up doing food diaries???

    I just feel like it's an obsession or addiction, when I think of my week I know I've not gone off track as I've still kept track of my syns, yet I don't feel in control just because I've not kept a diary. Feels like it's a bit like a comfort blanket to me. Think I'll be keeping my comfort...

    When to give up doing food diaries???

    SW don't encourage you to keep a food diary through out the journey, that's why you only get 4 food diaries in a pack and they aren't left out for you to freely take I've been doing SW on & off (off bit is a couple of month then I return) for around 7yrs now. I write down in a diary, it's not...

    When to give up doing food diaries???

    I've been doing SW for years now and I know it's a lifestyle change, and that means we can't be doing food diaries for life. This week so far (from Tuesday) I've not wrote things down, still kept track of my syns on iPhone calculator. I feel so out of control with not writing things down. I know...

    I have family members like this and it's hard when they say I'm obsessed and boring. But I see it a different way they're always saying how happy they are with their weight and how their living life to the full. I think they say the things they do as a front their not happy but don't want to...

    Syns daily or weekly

    I use to do them daily but now do them weekly, works a lot better for me. I can knock syns for things I'm going to have threw the week but may not have all at once eg tub of coleslaw, bottle of wine thing like that and then use them at my leisure without measuring or weighing. At times I've...

    Its So hard doing SW alone :-(

    It is, but it all depends on the frame of mind your in! My OH I've been with 17yrs and he has always weighed around the same no matter what. Did a little experiment at Xmas, we weighed ourselves at the beginning, we ate exactly the same only difference was he drank a lot more alcohol than me...

    i wish i could stop weighing myself everyday

    I would defiantly ditch the scales, I use to weigh myself all the time and no matter what the scales said it was detrimental. If it was a lose I'd become complacent and a gain I'd be disheartened and end up binging. I wouldn't want to and it wasn't intentional, but psychologically weighing...

    So true Laminx :) If you don't stoke the fire it won't burn, as soon as you eat your metabolism starts can be as little as a banana or as much as a full breaky. You have to fuel the metabolism for it to burn, day of WI eat little and often at least every 2hrs this will keep your metabolism...
