    Anyone 12 stones to 11 stones

    1 1/2 lb off this week for me (well over the last two weeks as I had to miss WI last week. Going to have to stop going to group soon due to a new job. Bit nervous! Great weight losses this week but everyone. Congratulations all. x

    Not suprised you are mad, makes me cross just reading this! :mad:lol She seems a total waste of space as a C. You'd think having someone like you doing as well as you are she would be super proud of you and try and take the credit or something but instead it would appear she is just jealous...

    How can I get SW chips to brown?

    Only other tip I can add is to not be tempted to turn them too quickly. I find mine get good colour on the bottom through being in contact with the tray I suppose? Good luck!! :) x

    STAYED THE SAME FOR 8 WEEKS

    Oo hang on, sorry but I am going to disagree with the above. I was led to believe that with SW (and it is how I have been doing it) you should eat until satisfied, not overly full, but comfortable. It is important to eat enough and not feel hungry. x

    When the carrot doesnt work !?!?

    I think your new non-goal sounds like a good plan! Just focus on doing and eating the right things and not about the numbers. Perhaps using a tapemeasure and record your achievements in lost inches may help? x

    So glad it all went well for you lovely, just think how much extra weight you are carrying around in skin! Good luck to all this week - I need all of your luck, but instead of being greedy I shall just accept my gain and work my butt of next week :Dxx

    Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred

    It was good thank you. I have been doing kickboxing for a few months, and that is killer, so it would seem my body is (relatively) used to this as it doesn't hurt at all today, and I don't think it will. Maybe a few more sessions will kick in with a bit more pain. Was still tricky as I was doing...

    Have eaten enough to feed a small army this weekend. Cricket in bristol and BBQs does not equal good food or good weigh loss :rolleyes:. Was well and truely worth it though!:D

    disaster on my first wi

    I wouldn't suggest jumping straight onto SS Soup until you are sure that you have followed the plan correctly. There are a few little things that I didn't realise immediately, I didn't realise that fresh pasta wasn't free, just dried, I didn't appreciate how different wholemeal is to granary, I...

    disaster on my first wi

    Definately put your food diary up, maybe something really small that you need to change. Have you done SW before? I sturggled to keep up with all of the little hints and tips at the beginning and struggled the first couple of weeks. Chin up and please keep going!!xx

    I love HiFi bars, think they are keeping me at group! You are doing so well, makes me sad when you feel down about your weight loss or choices, you are an inspiration to me, and many others I am sure!! Go for a good run, will sort all your worries.x

    Fruit - half ripe half moldy??

    Definately advise you to try storing them in a more open environment. I often by the cheaper ripen at home and have luckily not had your problem yet. All I can think of is that the plastic bag trick may be worsening the issue? Fruit bowl and banana trick as mentioned above might be better, if...

    Anyone 12 stones to 11 stones

    Hmm, there are some people at my group who can't do EE as they find their bodies just don't cope with too many carbs. Also there was a lady who wasn't sticking to her 1/3 free foods and wasn't loosing. The funniest one was a lady who thought that wine was free because she had it in her head that...

    big weight loss

    A lady at my SW group has lost over 11 and 1/2 stone. I think it is over about 4/5 years, but will ask next week. Good luck with your journey, I completely agree that little targets help massively!

    how do you do it?

    I find planning helps. So sit down on the weekend and plan your meals, do your shopping and then eat what you plan. You can plan in goodies as well! Makes the goodies seem more of a treat and less of a trick and allows you to literally have your cake and eat it! Please keep trying, the more I...

    worried about my first wi

    If you have followed the plan you will lose weight. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. When I started I was unsure how such small changes to my eating habits could make such a difference (I was a butter girl, and have cut it out completely), and like you I found myself eating more, but 23...

    Water intake does not help you lose weight?

    You are not drinking more water alone and expecting weight loss, you are doing SW! So yes the increase in water intake should help you to loose weight along side donig SW. Well done for a weight loss boost hehe

    Anyone 12 stones to 11 stones

    Missed WI last week, but have managed 4 1/2 lbs over the two weeks so getting down into the bottom of the 12s now. Not sure I'm ready to be in the 11s. Have NEVER been there as an adult, not even when I was in my teens! Hopefully I don't go and mess it all up as a consequence.x

    Tinkerbellarella, I CANNOT believe your C has been such a *bleep*. You have done phenomenally well in such a short amount of time, one weekend off is OK and is actually encouraged by my C (not overly of course hehe) so that we stick to the plan in the long run. If the plan is totally ridgid then...

    Pomegranates......??

    I don't see what would stop them being free (if you understand me) there is no reason I can see why they would have a syn value, as long as you are not blending them or cooking them of course? But I am sure you would know that. Were you expecting a gain, or had you been 100% and still gained...

    I don't know why but I can't see the photos? Probably something I'm doing wrong. You're weight is my exact start weigh but you are slightly shorter than I am. Starting only 3 months before me, you give me hope to get there sometime! Congratulations!x

    Anyone 12 stones to 11 stones

    ME! That is my problem! My consultant said once that grapes and bananas, although superfoods and unlimited, can slow weight loss. She didn't really have an explanation to why, but I had spent the last 3 weeks before that gorging on grapes an only having 1/2 lbs losses, so maybe there is...
