    SW to CWP

    I was exactly the same. I lost 2.5 stone with slimming world but put 1.5 back on when I had my daughter and after that just couldn't make it work for me. My issue was that I knew the cheats and how to get round things and stopped measuring my healthy extras. I've lost 5 stone with Cambridge and...

    Step 1 Sole Source 5 weeks in!

    And 23lbs off. Last couple of weigh ins have been a bit disappointing only losing 3lbs each week so have mixed it up a bit for this week and reduced the lemon bars to 1 a day as that was the only thing that had changed! Hoping to get to 2 stone this week x

    Blended shakes

    I do this too! My consultant suggested it to me when I started and it's the only way I've made shakes! The vanilla one is yummy with a teaspoon of coffee and loads of ice x

    Step 1 Sole Source New starter!

    Thanks guys :-) the shakes are ok, finding the soups a bit weird and powdery though. Having them makes it feel a bit more like proper meals though. Feel like I'm going to be sick with the amount of water I've drunk! X

    Yet another new start!

    My head finally seems to be in the right place for getting back on it so I'm giving it another go. I ended up virtually giving up while I was pregnant as almost everything made me sick - at one point I couldn't eat fruit, veg, dairy or meat! Breastfeeding made me hungry for all the wrong things...

    Don't you just hate it when....

    She's about 8.5 months. Shes been ok until recently but it's been getting worse lately, all I have to do is put her down sometimes and she starts. Hubby is doing his best but he's got work and is up at 4.45. I tried leaving her to cry but she screams until shes sick. Shes crawling and pulling up...

    Don't you just hate it when....

    When your baby will not stop crying no matter what you try and you've had to put her in her cot and leave the room because you can't handle it anymore but can still hear her. Really struggling lately but not got anyone I can turn to. Feeling like a seriously rubbish mum.

    Anyone got pregnancy weight to lose? I need help!!!!!!

    I managed to not gain too much weight when I was pregnant, only 8lbs and baby weighed that but that was purely because I was sick all the time. My problem was the fact I was constantly hungry when I was breastfeeding and just ate rubbish! Gained just shy of 2st back after losing 2.5st before...

    Thinking of starting...

    I first joined a few years ago when it was only red and green, couldn't understand it and gave up. I've found the EE plan so much simpler, it did take me a couple of weeks to really get my head round it but I grasped the basics really quickly xx

    It's A Man's World

    Anyone else have a not so good weekend?

    Mine hasn't been great either, I think the minstrels for breakfast yesterday are probably a fairly good representation of how it went (Saturday was a bit of a binge and Sunday was clearing up the leftovers!).

    When will my dress size change!?!?!

    A Question for those who go to class

    I go on my own, was a bit intimidating going the first few times but now I know the faces there and the routine I actually quite like it - its an hour or so a week I can spend on me, no distractions from other people and I can spend that time thinking about why I'm doing it, what I want to...

    Treat nights?

    Sometimes we do sometimes we don't. Weigh in was tonight so as my treat I've had two slices of garlic bread with my (syn free) tea which has felt really naughty but totally within my syns for the day. Having said that other nights when we really can't be bothered we'll have chippy or chinese xx
