    Pregnancy and Slimming World

    I've text the SWC and waiting for her to get back. There is a meeting tonight.We'll see what she says. The scales this morning looked promising as I've probably lost a few lbs already. I'm only about a stone heavier than I should be and my BMI is about 25 and I prefer it at 22. I've checked all...

    Well done on the cycle Bethyo! And joining! Congratulations j0j0 :bestwishes: both on the birth of your baby and the amazing weight loss. That's the situation I want to be in, after giving birth being a favorable weight. I'm still undecided as to whether to join. Don't think I would deal very...

    Pregnancy and Slimming World

    I'm finding it tough, plus I've always used pregnancy as an excuse to over-eat! That's what I need too. I've got an 8 year old stepson, a 5 year old and a 10 month old. Cooking for hours a week isn't really an option with full time work in the mix too! My partner can afford to eat loads, he's...

    Hi Bethyo :) I'm not very new here but have started again from scratch having had my second baby last year. Congratulations on your news :bestwishes: I'm also 8 week pregnant and suffering with sickness. It's also the middle of the school holidays so my diet is very poor, lots of convenience...

    Success on propoints whilst breastfeeding?

    Hi Katy Although I didn't do WWPP while BF'ing, I have had fab results from it afterwards. Really I just wanted to say that you have done amazingly to only gain 8lbs. I gained more than 1lb for every week I was pregnant, so, by your stage I was at least 25lb heavier. Good luck with the rest...

    It is Micci. I had lost around 9lb in March with SW but put every lb back on quickly because I couldn't sustain the diet with the time and motivation I had. Am really enjoying WW atm and my work colleagues are really inspirational with their weight loss on WW too. I'm quietly confident about my...

    Eating when Bored also Large Portions!!!

    Looks like I've cracked it :D SW was great but I didn't have time to sit and plan meals that me and DH could eat together. I just gave up trying to suit us both and did my own thing. Became really motivated about WW and found meals that I really enjoyed that were very easy to prepare. Now I'm...

    Pro Points- tackeling WW with a baby!

    Hey Fern I'll tell you what happened to me rather than give advice. It's weird but the minute I announced my pregnancy everyone suddenly wanted to tell me how I should/shouldn't feel, what I should/shouldn't do etc etc. You may have experienced the same. Beginning of pregnancy weight=9st 2lb...

    Has anyone lost 2st in 3 months?

    I did, only because I gave birth ;) I'm sure it's possible, just try not to be too hard on yourself if you don't get the whole 28lb off. Anything is better than nothing and there's always time after the 3 months too. WW is a great system and I really hope you do well with it.

    Another 2lb off:) even though I was on holiday and had alcohol. Still stuck to the diet and now I'm pleased I did. The holiday was great, albeit tiring. Danny (who is now 20 weeks) loved it. He watched all the children playing and loved being out in the fresh air.
