Well I was at Electric Picnic last weekend and I ate and drank all around me! I'm finding it very hard to get back on the wagon and to make it worse I have a wedding this weekend! I promise I'll get back to it next week :o

Down another 1.6lbs this morning, if I keep going like this I'll be at goal by Xmas!

Go you! I was down 1.2 lbs, that .2 is very important!! :rolleyes:

Haha, indeed every little does help! Finding it good, I used to go to class but didn't find them useful. As long as I plan ahead I'm fine!

Very true, thanks :)

First at home weigh in this morning and I'm down 1.2 lbs! Hoped it'd be more but I'll take it!

First weigh in this morning, down 1.2 lbs, thought it'd be more but I'll take it, the nearer I get to my goal the slower it comes off but I have to keep telling myself it didn't go on over night so it's not gonna come off over night!

I used to go to an American style diner, I loved their strawberry malted milkshakes along with my burger and fries of course. Since starting slimming world I found out the malt alone was 50 syns!! That's before I even took a bite of food :(

I weigh at home on a Wednesday too and yes, I am a little scale obsessed. I weigh myself first thing in the morning and last thing at night. I try so hard to keep away but just can't!

I do mainly green days as I don't eat meat, I like having more healthy extras too!

I find doing it at home better than class, the group thing never really did it for me! I was there for about a year, when I left I bought a decent scales and keep an eye on my weight that way. Like I said a little started to creep back on but it's so easy to pull it back following slimming world :)

Hey, I'm in a similar situation, started March 2011 and lost 2 stone, then went it alone and lost another half stone but in the last year a little has been creeping back on and I DO NOT want to go back!! So I'm back in the right frame of mind again and ready to lose for the final time :)

I'm sneaking back, been gone for a while but weighed this morning and was 11,13.6!!

Back to slimming world again, going it alone this time, I don't find the group to be very helpful and it'll save me a few quid!! Weighed in this morning at 168.4 lbs. I've only put on half a stone in a year, which is a success in itself but I am so determined to get to 150 lbs this time. Just...

I ran 5k today after taking a break from running for about 4 months! Very surprised and proud of myself :)

I've been ridiculously off plan for about a month now, I feel like such a heifer! I've put on about 5lbs :( I'm going on holiday in 3 weeks so I'm hoping to get it back off by then. I have given myself a good kick in the bum and am determined to be 100% from now!!

Off to Zakinthos, can't wait, never been to Greece so it'll be a nice for a change, usually go to Spain as my folks have a place over there.

Booked my holiday today, so now I want to have 7lbs gone by then, I have 6 weeks to do it, eek...it's totally do-able, right??

1/2 lb this week, happy with that :)

Down 1lb, brings me to 2 1/2 stone gone since starting SW. It's taken 6 months to get the last 7lbs!! Hopefully it won't take as long for the next 7!!

Hi all, I used to weigh in at class on Tuesday but I'm now going it alone and have changed my weigh day to Friday, so I hope you don't mind me joining you all! Weighed in at 11.8 last week, I have been pretty good since then so fingers crossed for a lose this week!!

My brother told me I was fading away!!

After 3 very unmotivated weeks I finally got off my backside last night and went for a run!! I felt great after it and still do this morning...think I'm back on the wagon!

-1.5 this week, think I'm getting the hang of SW from home!

2 lbs to be 11.7 and have lost 2 1/2 stone!

Time to get back down to business, I've been making such a half arsed effort over the last month, I've not put up any weight but I've not lost anything either and I still have at least a stone to go before I'll be happy to maintain. Back on the wagon now and ready to be a loser again!!

Well I completed C25K, can now run 5k, I've caught the bug and can't get enough! Even on my rest days I'm thinking about going for a run, crazy!!

Congrats on moving down...sorry to be losing you!! I think I'll be here forever!! :-)

I've been doing SW for just over 9 months now. I was going to a group but have now decided to go it alone!! I was finding group repetitive and boring, also the longer I was there the less support I got from the consultant! So far I have lost 2st 4lb, I'm hoping to lose another 1st from home...

2 off this week...horray!!!

I started the couch to 5k programme in the middle of January, now mid way through week 7, running 25 minutes now (4k)!!! I was very surprised at how quickly my fitness increased doing it. HOWEVER...my weigh loss is only catching up now. I couldn't understand how I was doing all this exercise and...

Didn't even know there was a couch to 5k thread! I wish I had taken my measurements before I started but never even thought of it...I just keep hoping it'll catch up on the scales one of these days!!!

Half way through week 6 of couch to 5k...ran for 20 minutes without stopping!! Such a great feeling, pity it's not making any difference on the scales!!

+1, it seems to be 1 step forward and 2 steps back with me, well and truly fed up :(

Well after a good week, watching my syns, keeping a food diary, doing plenty of body magic...I was down 0.5 lb...major disappointment!!!

I'm doing C25K too, finding it very do-able, on week 4 now. Finding my losses very slow even though I'm following plan 100%, and I'm doing all this body magic!! Been doing SW for almost a year and starting to get a bit disillusioned...thinking of leaving class and going it alone, EUR9 a week...

Down 1 this week, happy but such a slow loser!! Would love a bigger loss next week...really gonna stick to plan 100%

Just finished week 1 of c25k, really enjoyed it...never thought I'd say that!!

STS this week, starting to get a bit disheartened. Giving to the end of January and then reassess, I seem to be going nowhere fast!!

My friend just emailed a picture that was taken at Xmas and for the first time ever I didn't look at it and think I looked huge, in fact I look quite skinny! Think my head is finally beginning to catch up with my body :-)

-1.5, pretty happy, still 3.5 to get to where I was before Xmas!

Haven't checked in for a while. I'm just about hanging in here, I went from 11,8 at the start of December to 11,13 at last night weigh in :-( it had made me very determined however to get this last stone off by the end of March! Time to get serious!!

+2.5 :(

-1.5 this week, puts me at 11,8, the 10's are getting ever closer!!

-1.5 this week, very happy after a boozey weekend!!

2.5 off this week, 11,9.5 now, can't believe it, never thought i'd ever be this light!!

Just 2.1/2lbs to my 2.1/2 stone award!!

-2.5lbs, so so happy!!

+1 this week, was totally expected so I'm ok with it!

4 lbs to my 2 and a half stone award...would hope to get that before christmas!

1.5 down this week putting me at 11.11, so delighted with myself!

Totally shocking loss of 1.5 lbs, was expecting a gain so I'm over the moon!!

Another 5.5 lbs to get my 2 and a half stone...would love to get that by christmas but I'm a very slow loser!!

Down half a pound, happy but wanted it to be more!!

I also hit the christmas cake this weekend, I never should have cut it now I can't stop eating it!! Dreading weigh in, I had been so good all week. Maybe, just maybe...

STS this week...best I could have hoped for reall!!

Hi guys, after some ups and alot of downs I have made it to 11.13!! I haven't been here since I was about 16. Hoping to keep going down!!

Well ladies and gents I lost 1.5 lbs this week taking me to 11.13 which means I'm outta here!! Thanks for all the support, see you in the 11's!!

Down 1.5 this week!! Yipee, so happy!!

Only need half a pound tonight to get me to my 2 stone award. I've been pretty good so fingers crossed. Roll on 5 o'clock!!

I found a formal dress in a bag in the attic that I wore for my graduation ball 13 years ago, tried it on for the laugh and it was loose on me!!!

After a loss of 1.5 this week I am 12,0.5, I am determined to be out of here next week (no offence)!!!

Down 1.5 this week!

It's been 19 weeks since I got in to the 12's and it has been quite a struggle since! I'm at 12.2 now and I am really really hoping and trying to get that 2 lbs off for next week. I have possibly just jinxed myself by saying that but fingers crossed!!

1 down this week, slow going but I know it'll be worth it!!

STS this week...I've been playing with the same half lb for a month now. Starting to get a bit fed up! Gonna do a food diary and try speed soup this week to see it that helps.

+ 0.5 for me tonight :-(

I bought a dress in a 12, first time in my life! Could have dropped in the changing room when it zipped up no problem!!

Down 0.5 this week which puts me at 12,2.5, set a mini target of 2.5 for next week, probably jinxed myself but i might aswell give it a try!!

2.5 lbs to get my 2 stone award and get in to the 11's for the first time since I can remember!

Down 0.5 this week, happy considering the crazy week i had!

Lost 2.5lbs this week bringing me to 12,3!! The 11's are so close now!! I might just get to target before xmas!!

Well I was shocked and surprised to have lost 2.5lbs this week, I'm so happy!!

Was down 0.5 lbs tonight, not too bad considering I was on holiday for a week but I feel like its coming off soooo slowly!

1/2 down, very disappointed, I put in such a good week and feel utterly frustrated now!

STS this week...happy considering the weekend I had!!

My next 2 goals are 4 lbs off before I go away in 2 weeks and 6.5 lbs for my 2 st award.

Down 1.5 this week bringing me to 12,6.5, I haven't weighed this little in about 10 years...and got slimmer of the week!

Even though I lost 1.5 lbs I'm a bit annoyed, I had such a good week, never went over my syns, was so good I felt I deserved a bigger lose. I'm never happy!!

When I got out of the shower this morning and wrapped the towel around me I noticed how much further it goes than it used to! Also I filled a charity bag full of clothes that are now way too big for me.

To lose 1 lb next week and get my 1 1/2 st award!

Well I managed to lose 2 lbs this week, bringing me to 12.8, past my sticky weight, got my club 10, and 1 lb away from 1 1/2 st shiney!

Down 2 this week, I'm only delighted with myself!

I've been doing SW for 4 months and I still get nervous on weigh day!

My sticky weight is 12.10 which I'm at now! I've been here before and manage to get back up to 14 st before joining SW, I'm really hoping for anything off today as I fear I'm losing motivation : -(

My brother told me yesterday that you could tell I had lost weight as my face was gone skinny!!

3.5lbs off this week, sooo happy, finally feel like I'm moving in the right direction again!! Only 1lb to my club 10!!!

Either the elastic is going in all my knickers or they are getting too big for me!! Time for new underwear me thinks!!

To lose 5 lbs for my club 10! I seem to be losing and gaining the same 2 lbs for about a month now!!

+1.5 this week, it seems to be one step forward and two steps back with me for the last month!

I was just looking at photos taken at the weekend and for the first time in years I don't think I look huge! Pretty happy about that!!

I never look forward to WI, had a very bad weekend for slimming but a great weekend for fun!!

After putting up 1/2 lb last week, I lost 2 lbs this week, it really was the boost I needed. I was starting to lose faith a little bit but now I have a renewed motivation for the week, yeah!!! Onward and downward!

Down 2 this week, delighted, I really was getting fed up of staying the same!!

Can't believe it, only 0.5lb up after my 2 week holiday, happy out!

One hour to go until WI, just got back from 2 weeks holidays yesterday so I'm not hopeful!!

It was as I feared +0.5...now off on holiday for 2 weeks so hope there's not too much more damage done!

As usual I'm dreading WI tonight, was hoping for a good loss before I go on holiday for 2 weeks but it's doubtful, have been a bit off plan this week!

Down 2lbs this week, fingers crossed it keeps going this way!

Afraid not, I'm 5'7!!

Is there room for another one?! Down 2 lbs this week putting me at 12.13, and I got my 1 stone award, woohoo!!

2 down this week, got my 1 stone shiney!!

Hoping that's brill...what's your secret!!!??

I noticed in a photo taken last weekend that I only have 2 chins now!! That's a NSV in my book!! :-)

You have to have 1/3 superfree and there are not as many choices on EE healthy extra list.

I am doing EE and am a veggie and was told by my consultant that I can have 2 A's and 2 B's and its been working pretty well!

Its not made very clear but you can do ee as a veggie as you get 2 of both A & B hex's if you don't eat meat. That's what I do!!

I managed +0.5 this week but its ok, I was away from Friday to Monday so expected it but I'll make up for it next week.

I managed to put on 0.5lb this week which is amazing considering the weekend I had. Its behind me now so I'm ready for the week ahead, just 1lb to my 1 stone award!

I have a very bad feeling about WI this evening...I was away all weekend and SW went out the window!

2.5lbs nearer that goal after WI tonight!!

Was down 2.5lbs, delighted but I was hoping for 3 to get my stone!!! Next week...

I'll join!! Have a wedding in spain in september and I would love to be 2 stone lighter...I think that's pretty do-able, right??!!

Well done to everyone who have already weighed and good luck to everyone yet to!!

I feel like I've had a good week but I'm still not looking forward to WI tomorrow. I feel like everytime I think I've had a great week it doesn't show on the scales!

I usually use half a large tub of yogurt, the liquid just drains off and you're left with a little less volume but not far off the amount you started with!

My next goal is lose 3lbs to get my first stone award, then lose another 6lbs to get my club 10!!

Eek...10 syns!! I had no idea super noodles were that high!!

I had a big night out last weekend and decided to buy a new dress, I tried my size and it was too big!! Had to get a 14, I was so delighted. To make it even better everybody was saying how amazing I looked. STS at WI but I didn't mind cause I felt so good about myself!!

Hey all, I'm in kildare, joined sw 6 weeks ago, just found this thread today!! A lot of people in our class were looking for quark but couldn't get it, but our consultant told us how to make it ourselves...one pot of fat free natural yogurt 1/4 tsp salt mixed in, put a sieve lined with kitchen...

Have you tried steeping them in Milton?

Stayed the same this week but it's all good, am very motivated to get 3 lbs next week!!

Fingers crossed it'll be a good WI today!! Good luck to everyone :)

I really want to get my 1 stone award...just 3lbs to go, hopefully in the next 2 weeks!

The same thing happened to me, the weekends I go out and drink too much (way over my syns) I end up having really good loses...I'm in fear of it all catching up with me one of these weeks!

I can't believe it another 2lbs down, totally shocked, another 3 and I have my first stone...hopefully next week!!

Yet again I'm dreading WI, these long weekends are hard to plan for! Fingers crossed, i'd even be happy if I stayed the same.

Can't believe it but I'm down 2.5 this week, got my first award, now on to the next one!!

I don't know where I stand, the weeks I've been good I have small loses and the weeks I think I've been bad I lose more. Can't imagine it'll be too good tomorrow! We'll get over it and move on: )

I don't know how I managed it but I lost 1.5lbs this week, I'm delighted with myself!!

Its only my 3rd week and I'm dreading weigh in tonight, only lost 0.5lbs last week and it was my birthday this week, between dinner out, cake and champagne it was very synful, fingers crossed for a miracle!
