It was my first 'proper' slimming world week where I have stuck to it 100%. Alot of resisting and I chose to weigh in on a monday as all weekend it was in the back of my mind, so no going off rails. Done green all week and red/EE weekend (Had a BBQ). Also, LOTS of SF and SS foods. Lets just...

Hope you have a loss Tess! I've lost 5lb this week :D I've been ridiculously good though! Menu sounds lovely, do you have treat night? thats where I always used to go wrong lol. I dont do it now though xx

I put mine in freezer last night... it stayed there for 20mins! .. it was very cold! :8855::8855::8855::8855::8855:

Love your profile pic! Gorgeous doggy <3

Thank you! Had it melted on a jacket! With a chicken leg and coleslaw! :):):)

Sounds great! Well done for gym. If it's your first time going to the gym in a while don't be disheartened if weight loss is slow due to building muscle etc, I was but my boyf reassured me and then I started to see I was toning up. Can't wait for my red weekend! Love carbs in the week as they...

Just looked into my 2009 SW book and it says 85g of light for HEA. :)

Sorry for asking, can Philly be a HEA? I'm sure I've heard the light version can be 71g or something? Rather that than butter on my jacket :)

Fantastic! Great news! Just got my hands on coconut mullers! (also 30p, in morrisons!)

ahh I can see now, skinny mini!

Btw speedo guy was there this morning letching over me! Gross!

Good luck x

I resisted a scone last night!

Yeah me too! What's your stats - sorry cant see on my iPhone! I want to reach club10 by September 17th! Been swimming all this week in my bikini and don't feel too bad, so anything lost is a positive! Got 9lb to go!!! Good luck! Nat xx

Does oil/fat/frylight not come through holes?

RIP Humphrey. I really feel for you. It is truly awful. It will get easier. I fall in love with animals too quick <3

Haha! Crazy woman! Your spice cupboard sounds amazing! My OH stops me in my tracks before I buy any more jars :( Is it just Indian food or all kinds of foreign foods your into? I really need to make a good curry soon. I'm into Malaysian at the minute. Xx

MMMMMM FANCY A SAUSAGE NOW :)

Ermintrude - Have you entered yourself into this years Masterchef ;) I'll be very impressed if you remembered all the spices off the top of your head hehe :)

Thanks for link. I'll think i'll stick with quorn! Bit pricey arent they? xx

I'm trying, I'm trying!! :p

Cool! Its good looking at the scales in the morning, gives you a bounce in your step! This is what giving up smoking and falling in love has done to me!

Im sure its just to do with * week. Kepp positive :) x

Love this!! I feel great too. Went swimming this morning and actually sat on the side of the pool in my bikini afterwards! Its such a good feeling. I dont know why I havent done this earlier as im enjoying my food so much! Whens your WI day? Im on a monday (so I'm good at the weekends!)...

That cafe sounds great! Do you know what you butcher is called? I famcy ordering some meat online? xx

Krupskaya - Your weight loss journey looks amazing! Well done, very inspiring :)

Coconut ones not in my asda yet :( or someone stole them all!

Your work sounds alot like mine, where you do your absolute best everyday and no one appreciates it and then people who you think are friends, turn out not to be! But I think of it as it's only a 1/3 of my life so the other 2/3 should be fantastic! STS is better than a gain! I know what you...

Cool. Thanks alot! I'll defo be having some next time then.

Sounds yummy to me. I'm sure i'll be drinking too at weekend. may have vodka though and get leathered! Do you feel less bloated or anything? I feel like a new person, sooo much energy! Glad its going ok for us. PS, What's your daughters name? she's gorge! xx

mmm cous cous sounds amazing :) ive got roasted veg one wth my dinner with a truck load of veg :) Can't wait! How is everyone today? Nearly weekend! Nx

Had a sneaky look on scales this morning - Lost another pound so im officially 12stone! :)

Had a sneaky look on scales this morning - Lost another pound so im officially 12stone! but unofficially allowed in here! haha Nearly! :)

Cucumber sauce sounds delish! x

I'd love to know this too! x

Smiley face not question mark! :)

Have a fantastic time ?

People are so cruel! What body shape is everyone? I'm a pear so quite small bust and stomach but stocky thighs and bum :( I'm just debating whether to see OH parents puppy or go swimming? Might go swimming before work tomoz ;) x

Oooh I hate days like that :( hope you and friend will be ok. It does make me want to eat when I've had a crap day. Glad diet isn't suffering though :)

I'm old school and just do green and red days. Green in week and red at weekends mainly x

I'm doing surprisingly well ? struggling to use syns to be honest. Once all the fruit and veg gone out of fridge it may be a different story! And only on day 3 so we'll see... But staying optimistic. I did SW a few years back with OH and didn't struggle one bit and I was alot thinner then...

Menu sounds ace to me! I am still sat with my mouth wide open at the comment at your gig. BTW - Raw broad beans (?!) I had cooked ones in my dinner and couldn't eat them! Gross! Nat xx

Thanks I'll try that this weekend. Starving now! lunch not for another hour. Might go guzzle a gallon of water!

OOOOOPS! I got too excited then! Looks amazing! Throw a bit of rum in and you can have a pina colada - a la breakfast ;)

I havent seen these!!!!!!!! Where did you get yours from? I literally would just eat them all day! :eek:

Cool sounds great. Im gonna try and have loads of ss foods. Might make that soup too. bit warm for it though :S x

I wish all mine did! :sigh:

That would be fantastic! Ive got both kinds, think one is the herby one and the other is just fake meat sausage lol. :cool:

Your weight loss is amazing! What do you follow? orig/green or EE? xx

Thankyou. want to get my Club10 target by september. (11.4st) :eek::D I need all the luck I can get!!!

Im 12.1 today. Maybe I'll only be in this thread for another week. hopefully :O :(

Fantastic!

Lol I'm baffled. I would have thought. Best leave it to the experts!

I'm roasting too :( got the fan on whilst watching tele!

Thanks. You got it spot on! 50cals. Had two! :)

Hi all, Really fancy a meringue nest with a muller. Does anyone know syn value? Nat x x

Hey, I am also this weight and cant wait to get to 10st again! We can do it! Feel better after a day, how you getting on? xx

What an inspiration you are! I hopefully will be aboard in another month!!! Cant wait :family2:

I'm feeling great! Definitely feeling better today and less bloated. Stomach feels miles flatter! Sooo looking forward to all my meals because I'm taking time to prepare nice things.

Sorry sent it twice. I walk from my car in morning and always put my bag in front of my stomach! I want to be able to not carry a big bulky bag full of food!

I hope I'm the same after my holiday!!!

That's amazing! Hope I'm the same after mine!!!!

My holiday is September! Looked in the mirror a few weeks ago and thought 'I can't go on holiday looking like this!' :)

Yeah definitely. I have to keep looking in the mirror I feel so good and less bloated! Been swimming at half 6 this morning so still happy from that. Definitely feel good :D Euphoric slimmers :)

Good luck, I started properly yesterday too. I am slimming for a holiday. xx

Why is quorn so expensive :( I suppose of it is an alternative to meat it is quite cheap in comparison! wasn't on offer last night so got asda's own, haven't braved looking at cals or anything yet. It's hard when I'm not registered on site to check stuff!

I have weetabix/bran flakes with chopped banana most days. If I don't have time I just buy a fruit pot or yoghurt. And a big cup of tea :)

Love the packed lunch idea :D boo for the long day though! I feel great today, definitely not as bloated and was up at half 6 and went to gym for a long swim. 30 lengths - quite depressing when there is a 60 year old man going faster alongside me though! He did have speedos on though ;) great...

Cool. I love having something big to look forward to. September has been so far away for so long! Flying now though!

Had tomato ketchup and options hot choc now. Extra creamy with the rest of my milk allowance. that's 5 :)

Fantastic! Hope I do next week :)

Yeah I know, id like to lose about 2.7stones but will settle with half that! Ive lost half a stone last few weeks so will hopefully lose a few pounds a week. Anything is a bonus though! Having rump steak with SW chips and eggs tonight! Can't wait! Having a weekday red day which is strange! Had...

Oh good. Hopefully I won't be too bad then and all the swimming & sweating can only be a bonus! :D

Wigglyworm, I am also on track for a stone gone by 1st sept! I'm going on hol on 16th sept so have around 6 weeks! Nat x

Hi, I am joining your Monday weigh in! Got 6 weeks to lose as much as poss! I was 12.2 this morning, I think a Monday weigh on is likely to help me stay focused on a weekend. Here goes! Natalie Xx

Ok*

Hope your of after bf drama xx

you look amazing! and so much younger :) well done! your a real inspiration xx

Turkey - Lara Beach in Antalya for 10 days of pure bliss! AI too, but hopefully can still remain good whilst there. I went to mexico last year and did tend to choose healthier options. Anywhere booked for you?

Love this!!:D

Hi Im Natalie. Back on SW as holiday in 6 weeks. 12.2 this morning and hopefully want to lose a stone for holiday. Got my SW book from 2009 so just following everything according to that as not going to group. :) x

Hi everyone, back on slimming world today as holiday in 6 weeks! im 12.2 this morning and want to lose a stone by my holiday. already lost half a stone healthy eating last few weeks. Being rigid on SW till my holiday though. Natalie :)

Yeah I have a good old stroll round tesco when I'm bored. Do you like it over there? and what are you doing as a job? How old are you if you don't mind me asking. I'm 21 :D x

Anja, What is this wheatbran? and am I allowed it on cruise? Nat

Sounds great, I use cottage cheese in mine, instead of quark but may try it tonight!

Joanna!?! Who's that! Joanne :D

Joanna how are you so nice all the time!

Well done thats great :)

Hi Sarah, Only just managed to get round to replying. Hows it going? I live near big asda (I presume youve only just moved out there?) If not its more towards south shore :) Was in layton the other night for a gig at the institute! x

B- 2tbsp oatbran porridge, a brew L- leafy salad with roast chicken and diet coke D - going out for tea, will have either 1/2 chicken or steak with veg and salad. Need to update my stats when I get back at the computer

Is the yogurt cake in the recipe bit? Sounds yummy. Not at my comp at the moment so it's not easy to check x

Lost 5lb in my attack phase :) feel great about it. Bring on the veg!

Seven hours?!

Thanks everyone :) home now and lost a grand total of 3 lbs this week but I have weighed myself half way through the day full of water, chicken and oatbran so only tomorrow will tell :D

Oi! I hope your not all slagging off sunny Blackpool! Haha very sunny today actually.

I'll let you know mine when I can get to my scales at home!

Yeah definitely :) im on a high today!

Thank you :) why do fridays draggggggggg :(!!!!!

Aww what a lovely story :)

Isn't the weight loss still really good not just on attack mode! Proud of you all :D

All those inches coming off sound great! Well done :) Im in such a happy mood today, don't know if thats because it friday or because I feel generally happier with myself.

Yeah hes a bit bigger than me, mostly muscle as he works out a lot. he has a got a bit of a cute belly though ;) I know what you all mean by the metal taste in the mouth. I only tasted it this morning! tasted like blood. I dont go to Uni Jo, Im a registered dental nurse/practice manager...

By the by Joanne, OH has lost 13lbs! X

Glad you haven't had any awful headaches like me! Ive had it the hard way I think!

They sell it in tesco in a see through bag. About a £1 I think. Next to the oats :D

Breakfast - oatbran and Greek yog and coffee. Lunch - tin of tuna an two eggs. Tea - nothing yet as at uni in a lecture :( don't feel hungry at all though! How is everyone doing? Sorry not been on today, been very busy at work, burning extra cals ;)

Yeah feel great now thanks :) not had chance to weigh myself as mum doesn't have scales! Pants feel a little less skin tight though! X

Yeah enjoying it so far, well the diet side to it. My body is changing for the good and bad, experienced some really nasty headaches despite drinking lots of H2O. but lost 2lb in 2 days which isnt too bad for my size. How you doing?

mmm your menu today sounds good Joanne. I was planning to have scrambled eggs for dinner, was walking to work and dropped the bag with them in!!!! :( went to M&S and got some more though.

Thanks :) getting my headache back now. So I'll get on the water, had greek yog this morning with oat bran after my swim (sit in the jacuzzi/steam room!!)

Thanks everyone :) another lb gone this morning :) its been replaced with a headache now though! burgers were amazing last night, just mince, garlic, dijon mustard and oat bran.

Feel alot better thanks. Sorry for the moan last night! I was just feeling so low! I'm feeling great this morning, jut off for a swim before work :) lost another lb :) and resisted cheese, biscuits and pickle that matts dad was trying to feed me!

Started feeling sick and very tired today. Second day on Attack. Came home couldn't stand the smell of OH making dukan burgers and had a banging head. Had some paracetamol and went for an hours sleep. Woke up feeling a bit hungry and headache nearly gone. Been out at MIL and now feel a bit...

Oh good. I could kill for some spinach! Had 2 litres of water again. Nearly home time anyway then I can relax with my burgers!

Think I'll try that. Plus the natural fat free is sooo cheap. Getting a headache now :(

Ok thanks. I would be wondering why I havent lost weight! Bloody Yogurts!

I'll have to give away tonight :( Glad they were cheap! What should the carbs be roughly per 100g? I think I will move to france to have you coach me the ways of the Dukan! (or perhaps read the book a bit closer!)

I found them and the link i posted didn't work If you type in asda search bar - vanilla natural balance they come up.

Dont think the link works. its a pack of 4 - claiming to be vanilla fat free chosen by you. got 8 for £1.50

ASDA Groceries Online - From our store to your door Its these! and they are wrong arent they! Was in a rush after work last night and was fooled by the fat free! Bummer. good job they are only small and I've only had 1.

Haha a little ;) Will do some experimenting this weekend when OH is on nights. Some of these famous muffins perhaps - Ham and mustard?

She went to find Dr Dukan :) lol. Love french food, all I have of france is some dijon mustard :(

Do you know, I've not even looked!!!!!! I will check as soon as I'm home. They are ASDA own brand but not smart price and say fat free vanilla yogurt. Will feel very silly if they aren't! :(:(:(:(:(:(:(

Do you live in France Maintainer? Are you french or have you moved there because you love the diet so much ;)

Hi All, Joined yesterday and just thought I'd introduce myself :o Im 21 and in 2009 I was unhappy with my 10st body (crazy) went to SW and lost about a stone in 2 months, kept maintaining and eventually gave up quite happy with my weight. Went to Mexico last June with my man (first...

They sell it in all major supermarkets. think the best deal is in tesco for a 600ml. Quark is good to try too, its a bit like philly but tangier!

Yeah definately all fat free :) I mostly use ASDA and Tesco for food, they do a great range of fat free dairy. So the vanilla yogs are 18p each which is great! I hear what your saying about packets of meat, may try and get a joint to cook at weekend (perhaps turkey crown). Tend to eat more of...

When I made them on SW I used weetabix, so thought they'd work quite well with oatbran.

Thanks. Going for lunch soon but quite full from water! (Never thought I'd say that!) Will take your advice and try the smoked haddock tomorrow dinner. May try the meatloaf this week. I loveeeee meatloaf.

Today on the menu - (feel life a specials chef!) B - Natural yog, sweetended. Cup of tea L - 2 Turkey slices with creme friache and mustard Mackerel fillet Vanilla yog D - Beef burgers made with oat bran and egg How does that sound? Going swimming too tonight.

Ha! What fish/seafood do you have instead? I love white fish grilled with lemon and pepper. Also got lots of smoked fish in fridge but peole say its quite salty so perhaps not to have it on attack :(

he had his oat bran porridge this morning, I've saved mine for burgers tonight yum yum! Had a look at the muffins, they look great! I made some funny salmon souffle things last night. Just basically, cottage cheese, eggs, salmon and a few herbs and put them in a silicone muffin pan. turned...

Its just a white fish. Think they have been made more popular since the whole 'non sustainable cod' thing. All white fish is the same to me! Bought some from tesco frozen, 8 fillets for £5.

Ok, thanks alot for that. thats maybe why I only lost 1/2 lb this morning. :cry:

If on Attack do I use everything apart from wheatbran?

It was diet fanta? Thought that was ok?

Hi xconfusedx, Im a newbie to Dukan too. First day today. what were you doing at the gym? I run and do alot of sit ups and kettle weights, I think I will cry if I put on weight this week! Nat

Going to try galettes tonight (+ make in bulk) to save time in the mornings, partner had coco pops because he didnt fancy meat for breakfast he said!

Today is my first day on Dukan (first time) - all prepared with everything and only have meat etc in the house so cant afford (literally!) for any slip ups! Diet so far has been; Breakfast - Oat bran mixed in some natural yogurt and a cup of tea Lunch - A mackerel fillet with 5 slices of ham...

I gave up smoking 9 months ago, didnt really feel sick at all until i stopped smoking whilst still on Champix. I used to have my tablet then drive to work and throw up whilst walking up to the stairs! Never looked back and feel so much better for it. it was worth everything, even the stupid...

might try the steak with mustard tonight!
