Set my target at 14 st 3 with consultant, but I reckon I might want to lose a bit more (BMI says I should be about 11 and a half stone which would make me look like a stick). Exercising loads more now so might lose 1 more stone than try and tone up more . Good luck with yours, done well so far...

5lb dropped this week, well surprised with that. 6 months to the day I joined SW and lost exactly 4 stone, with 1 stone to go to target, am absolutely buzzing about this.

Normally if you get a tandoori then it's marinated in spices and sometimes yoghurt and then dry roasted in a clay oven or over charcoal. They usually bring a curry sauce with it separately, just don't eat that.

Asian as in indian/kashmiri/bangladeshi etc? Or more like chinese/thai/japanese? If it's indian I personally would go for a tandoori meat dish as it's just the meat with spices and maybe yoghurt. Might be not the leanest meat or lowest fat yoghurt but miles better than a curry cooked in...

Can't see why you'd put weight on sticking with that list of foods. I wouldn't get disheartened, stick to that for a couple of weeks and if it's still not working keep a food diary to show the consultant. I think the reason some people fall down is by eating low fat foods, especially processed...

Don't know whether you're supposed to save syns up, but I'm sure everyone does and I certainly do. I don't have any syns in any of my daily food (fruit for breakfast, salad with pasta/meat for lunch or leftover tea from night before, big syn free meal for tea) then I can have a botte of wine on...

Have you kept a food diary? Also B choices, bread and cereal, 1 slice of bread is your allowance a day, or a small bowl of only certain cereals.

Any sauce with the pasta chicken? if so, homemade or from a jar? You need to balance the meat/carbs with free foods, as you've pointed out.

:) Good on you. Same here, people commenting all the time is a real bonus. Was a bit aprehensive about going at first, being a fella, but since I started, 4 women in the office are on SW and 2 others doing weight watchers x

Ta both. I'm doing SW (Extra Easy all the time) and had a lot of food and drink the weekend before last, but did lots of exercise and lost 3.5lb. Last week I had about the usual food/drink, did more even exercise and put 2lb on. I agree, I need to look at it over the month, but suppose I'm...

Hi, newbie here, I've had 4 weight gains in 23 weigh ins so far (mostly alcohol related, 2.5lb after my b'day, 2.5 for 2 weeks at Christmas, a 0.5 random and a 2 after the wife's b'day weekend). Thing is, the gains have always come the week AFTER I've expected a weight gain. I weigh in on a...
