Good luck :) x

the only reason I dont do classes at the minute is that my husband is on shifts and with the 2 kids it's hard to find a sitter, my bro in law could have them thurs night while i went with my sister to ww but not on a wed (when sw group is on) as they have after school groups etc, its awkward...

thanks all, its nice to know im not alone :) xxx

to get me to join ww with them tonight, im doing sw from home myself and my sister and friends are joining ww tonight, i'm tempted just because going as a group would encourage me but i know im always starving on ww and i dnt do well. sw fits in so well with the family too I think. So if you all...

Thank you hun :)

Im doing it from home, tried classes and with a hubby on shifts and 2 kids its hard to get there all the time. If i miss a class I dont track then I go off track completely. First real time going solo so hoping to keep myself motivated here and not cheat myself.

i'm back AGAIN! back on the wagon, i dont know why I fall off in the first place! I love sw! I am soooo dissappointed in myself, i am now the heaviest i have ever been, none of my clothes fit propperly and even family members have noticed and dropped a few not so subtle hints. You'll all no...

Thanks! Can't wait to have a look through it :)

i lost 1.5 lb this week and got my 1 stone award! I am over the moon, fingers crossed your all happy with your losses too this week and if you've gained that you know there's always a next week :)

me three ;)

mine is to get 1.5lb off for my stone award, then another 3 to get into the 14stones.... fingers crossed :)

probably the best all round, good luck with the weight loss x

seriously is it just me or do weigh days drag more than any other, i've got to wait for kids to get in, make tea for hubby and kids and then wait around until 5:45 before i can go and get weighed.... feels like forever away... :cross:

Me too, Good luck, i'm feeling heavy lol.

wow! how inspiring, he is stunning too ;)

hahahahaha you describe me so well sally ;)

good luck with it and welcome :)

OMG you brave woman, I sooooo want to do this, i just cant, im obsessive too! I might give it a try one day if im ever feeling as brave as you! well done :)

someone said the new bit was an update on the taste of sw app, have you tried updating it? hope this helps.

A huge congratulations! You're an inspiration xx

It's my husbands birthday on saturday and were going out for a pub meal followed by cinema. Im not too confused about the meal, I'm planning to either have a carvery or something with a jacket potato. Are these the best options for eating out? Also, does anyone know the syns in popcorn? Can't...

Hello! and welcome. Well done on your loss so far, coming on here helps keep me focused and stops me thinking about food so much (weirdly as it's what we're talking about 90% of the time lol) Good luck for WI x

I think if i have a good drink one weekend, i have to fill up with super speedy foods and stick 100% to plan the rest of the week and aim for a sts. Good luck with WI

oo thanks i love them too!

Good luck, i've been there so many times lol. Not ben too bad, my scales are being kind so hopefully on wednesday theirs will be too hehe x

Hope everything is going to plan x

well done, what a fantastic loss :)

ah well i didnt miss much anyway then and i feel better for resisting :)

hubby is sat infront of me eating an ice-cream, i'm being good to and saving myself for tonight when downton abbey starts. I bought a few boxes of dif sorts at aldi and have just syned them :o 15.5syns for feast type 11.5syns for white magnum type 7.5syns for toffee nobbly bobbly type + 7syns...

A huge well done Cara, you so deserve this! x

I do this too, then wake up the morning after feeling like I've cheated myself again, it happened yesterday and friday too, and after a good loss as well. Back on track from today, tracker out and filled in, 4days until WI, I can do this! We all can!

I want in too :) I want to lose 29.5lb (so 30 also) by the time santa comes. That wil mean 3 stone off from when i started until then. I am going to make myself a little xmas tree this afternoon I think, what a fantastic idea :D

Ive never had one, but heard they are fab! So wtg!

I'm the same as curvryKaren. Also sw has a spag bol recipe that is SO nice, it only uses the tinned toms. Do you want the recipe?

hi and welcome, good luck, you dont sound as though you need much of it though :)

welcome :)

mine are exactly the same.... :)

wtg! cant wait until I can say the same x

i stick with ee and it works ok for me. I know what you mean about ww though, i tried it for ages, yawnnnnn lol. Good luck with your last stone

HONK (day 4)

ham (joint) casserole

4lb off for me tonight, over the moon, weyhey!

well done on all your weight losese so far, I weigh in in about 20mins, *bites nails* been good so we'll see...

its been a week or so since I got chance to come on and say hi, hope your all doing well, better than me last week..... +2lb. Oops, but i know what happened and it was totally deserved (and enjoyed :8855:) back on track this week and looking forward to getting on them scales tomorrow night. xx

I hope so Bluebunny, although she thinks she's put the whole lot back on after a fortnight off it so I'm not 100% I did get another friend to join with me too so thats 2 people to go with. It's on at 6 kerry, our leader is lovely too :)

a banana, about to make some carrot and chilli soup...

I lost 0.5lb :eek: can you believe it, I actually pulled it back, my scales were showing a +2 on sunday and I managed to get a -1/2 by wed night. I am so over the moon and 100% back on track and motivated :) yay. I couldnt have done it without all of you listening to me rant and moan. I love...

fantastic thanks ladies, i'm gonna get the tesco one tonight :)

yay well done you :) x

Thank you :) I just looked online at tesco (were going tonight so thought i'd check what they had) and they have this one on.... http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.100-2168.aspx looks good to me, esp price wise and 9.1 out of 10 in 299 reviews, it sounds fab :)

i'm not sure, hopefully your leader will look through your sheets in the week and have an answer for you next wi, it's got to be disheartening though, understandably. You do have huge losses when you do lose though so maybe it's your body evening itself out or something? keep your chin up, hugs :)

thanks ladies, I was expecting £50+ but thats really good, will look for the bigger ones (3.5l) then as there are 4 of us here usually and 5 on a weekend.

can anyone recommend a good slow cooker? and how much are they usually? I think it might come in handy and keep me on track if i got one, esp with the winter months coming... :)

i find i have more energy with this diet, i think it must be the fresh veg.

Gonna go buy a pork loin, roast some veg and syn a yorkshire pud :)

that post just cheered me up no end, i love the winetr months, love the snow, love halloween, love bonfire night, christmas the lot, :) yay yay yay :)

I expected a sts, but lost 1/2lb so I'm over the moon, yay :) wow well done bunnylush, that must feel fantastic xx

a big hunk of cucumber

how jealous are they! there's no need, you keep your head held high!

it's £1.95 at class i think , the recipes are a mix of all really, mainly ee tho.

well done weighers. I get weighed in an hour and half, feeling rather heavy, will be happy with a sts this week as had a bad weekend, fingers crossed and gl to those still to weigh x

Good tip, i think, I might try that, Ive been sort of the same this week too, I get weighed tonight and if my scales are about right I might have just pulled it back and sts. I had to get my head right in the zone and start from scratch. We CAN do this ladies! it's all about positive thinking :)

good luck, let us know how you got on.

good luck hun (not that you'll need it) :)

welcome to both, :)

bet your evening meal never tasted better!

sw recipe ferrero rocher's - 1 syn, AMAZINGLY TASTY! :D

i would take it all and if there is any left for you to take home then thats just a bonus isn't it. Treat night.....?! hehe

ooo blue bunny, a bit of friendly rivalry sounds good hehe. you make a good point about not being so bad as i've been good from today, i'm such a worry wart.

thanks, ive walked for miles today and been really good so hopefully its a step in the right direction. kerry, I'm at the coxhoe group :)

mainly i use mine on a night in front of the tv, a sw bar and a bag of sunbites usually :)

thanks everyone, some great ideas there, i've started a fresh today, will seer what happens, btw how many syns is a merrangue? (sp)x

thanks ladies, i'm going to try that extra bit harder now I'm more focused and can see that actually i want to see a loss on the scales more than i want to eat a peice of cake or have a bag of crisps...

haha well looking at some of the threads on here i think there will be afew members joining you ;)

I have 6 weigh in's until the first week in october so I'd like 11 off in that time.... hopefully... :) that'd give me my stone award, my stone and a half award and almost my club 10 award too.... :)

thanks ladies, i have a feeling I'm going to like it here...

well done on being voted woman of the year, what a fantastic incentive :)

that sounds like heaven to me right now :)

it took me a few weeks, of 1 sugar, then 1/2 then nothing, its worth it if you can do it :)

I agree, I find candrell or splenda the best but have managed to wean myself off suagr or sweetner altogether, if i ever pick up the wrong cup and taste by accident it tastes horrible like syrup with it in now. I find i had to use a little less than sugar too otherwise it was over sweet.

all isnt lost, i did this on my 2nd week with snack a jacks, the books said 3 per pack but when i tracked them online the syn values had changed and they were 5 now I think, and I'd had a pack every night as my treat.

Fab idea with the pennies :)

thanks :)

I got it at class on wenesday, it's fab this month and has a free 31day recipe mini-book :)

i'd say almost half of the people in my old ww class were returners and no-one ever blinked an eye, I was one myslef, quite a few times, its personal choice but I wouldnt worry too much hun :)

aww in a strange kind of way he was thinking about you. Well done on not eating them though!

a toffee muller-light yummy

and feeling really guilty about it, it's a mix of things really I know why Ive been bad, my friend who comes with me to class didnt show last week and is away this week, so of course they are making the most of it iykwim, so instead of motivational txts and lots of walking there hasnt been any...
