hiya, thanks for the reply, im slowly getting used to this site :D taking me a while........ your menus always look very varied, which i think i probably key to not getting bored etc, im seriously thinking of starting a food diary up myself, as im sooooo worried about quantities etc, i know...

hiya.....i will be VERY interested to read your food diary, your losses are fab, well done :) im new to SW and so far not so good....my 2 wi's are quite dissapointing, im following EE too so i would be really keen to see what people actually eat to get good losses lol.....enjoy your meal out...

thanks very much for that...you have done REALLY well with your losses so far, i don't mind if i'm to lose nicely next week, but kinda just to know that i might will spur me on :D, i think i'm slightly panicking a bit as i followed SW about 5 years ago and after 7 weeks i left 1/2lb heavier...

ooooh we posted at same time, yes maybe they could add a programme to work out the % each week....would be fairer, wouldnt it .....im very new to SW so have little experience of what "stuff" they do etc.....but do agree...lol...

totally agree with you, based on poundage alone its not "fair" as he will no doubt always have bigger losses etc, but also agree that working out by % (which is fairer) would take far too long to workout, unless they handed out SOW awards the week after,for instance....in another club i went to...
