Hi Gingerbean, how are things going? xx

I really feel for you. I have suffered for years with PCOS but was only diagnosed around a year ago following ingored scans and uncaring GP's and consultants. I once bled for almost 5 months non stop!! I felt so awful, tired and at the end of my teather. I too found no help from anyone and so...

Had weigh in last night and I have stayed the same this week :-( Am quite shocked as I have not done anything different. I felt myself going all red at weigh in and just wanted to get out lol. To make things worse the weigh in ladies never talk to be and as usual said nothing to be.....not even...

Wow -4lbs......well done you!!! You really deserve that!! Enjoy those vodkas tonight :-) Mikados are 1/2 a syns and i've just had 2 lol. Thanks everything is going well so far. Weigh in for me Monday and hoping to push for the - 1st total loss at group. xx

Hi, I wouldn't call that a bad day.....I love a chocolate fix and have to have one most days lol. Have you tried Mikados? They're a thin straw shaped biscuit covered in chocolate, Mmmm. The one sugar in your coffee is only 1 syn, so that gives you 1 back for the weekend. Your syns all look...

Oh Hun I'm shocked!! You have had such a good week and exercising hard with Zumba, you deserved a big loss. Did your consultant give you any explanation? Easier said than done but don't let it get you down, enjoy your dinner this evening and whatever syns you are planning to have and carry on...

Thank you everyone, great to have such support and encouragement from people all going through similar journeys in one way or another. You have all had great losses to and are inspiration, pushing me to keep going. Feeling really positive :-)

Hi Things are going well thanks, feeling very positive and fairly motivated although we all have our moments. Thank you, I am really pleased so far but I'm pretty sure I will lose a bit less each week in future. If I achieve 1 to 2 lbs in future weeks i'll be very happy. Well done to you as...

I think you are about right for the syns (possibly could have even called it 4) I made pancakes today Nomnomnom!! They worked out at 2 syns each and they weren't tiny but they were a little smaller than I would normally make. Today just wouldn't be the same without them!! :D

Wow that's fantastic. Well done you. xx

Thank you. It is great to get extra support and lovely to receive praise from others so thank you. xx :D

Wow!! Both Stefanie and Bubbles1984 seeing both your pics is a true inspiration to me. Well done. xx

Hi Welcome to Minimins. How did your first Weigh In go? Batchelors Pasta n sauce in most flavours and made without butter are free on green days and most of the Savoury rice flavours are also free on green. Are you doing Red, Green Extra easy or a mixture? I can have a better look for you...

Well the nerves are setting in for my second group WI. Not sure why I feel so nervous......I guess it's just the real hope that I have lost again. I have been following the plan for 5 weeks now and lost a total of 1 stone (9lbs before I joined group and a further 5lbs on my first group weigh...

I couldn't bear it either and I so wanted to as I have a sweet tooth and love my puds but found the texture very strange and silky in a bad way :( Quite a relief really after all this confusion lol

Thank you Valerie.....it definitely has. xx

Lol Mazie6 and Pebbles67......add me to that table!! I haven't had my first Official group WI yet but I heard many people talking about getting a takeaway and was excitedly thinking that was the norm but going on majority of replies many stay on track without much naughtiness Doh...

I've had a good search and can't find it....sorry to be a pain, do you have a link? Thanks xx

Wow thanks.....off to the SW website I go!!!

Thanks very much for the recipe, I will definitely give that a go....sad I know but I have been thinking about some of the things I am going to miss, so this sounds like it will quash the pizza craving :D I think if I were to put my daily diary on here for all to see it would make me eat far...

:D Oooh fab. I made SW Chips tonight but just can't get them quite right (certainly nothing like any pictures in the recipe books!!) and the OH left most of them :( so am definately thinking of investing. Thanks for letting us know how you got on. xx

I made this tonight desperately hoping to love it.....but :sigh::sigh::sigh: I hated it!! Gutted!! I am so totally confused now!! :confused: I thought I had got my head around the diet and how it all worked but if 3 SW professionals each say very different things what hope have I got??! I find...

I've seen quite a few people on here taking about them and saying how good they are. I think to spend that much money on one they would have to be really really good!! Apparently you can use fry light in them too. Let me know how they turn out? xx

Hi I'm pretty new to this but so far I've been having 2 Weetabix with a small amount of Skimmed milk or Shape Zero and Melon. Someone mentioned Puffed Wheat as you get quite a bit for the weight you are allowed as a HEB.

Hi I am also new to both Slimming world and Minimins. I had a look through your food diaries for ideas and they are very relevant to me as I am a vegetarian too. Can I ask.....what is "Smash Pizza"?? Did you ever find out any more on the Foo Yung? That is my dish of choice at the Chinese. Good...

I am a Pepsi Max lover myself, but like the idea of sugar free cream soda......I feel a trip to Sainsbury's coming on :)

Oooh Great tip......Melted Choc Fudge bars sounds yummy!! I did try breaking them up in my Muller light but it went really hard.

:sign0144: Hi Everyone I joined Minimins yesterday and am slowly getting to grips with how the site works, I have read many of the user guides and FAQ's which have proved very helpful. I have been battling with my weight since I was a teenager which has been very hard for me and since having my...

Hi, I am new to Minimins so not as experienced as others but I would say, I'm pretty sure everyone at some point hits a rough spot so don't be so hard on yourself. It looks like you have done really well on your weight loss so far so don't give up!! It's not to late to pull it back.......I would...
