Pate is the one thing I really miss, especially this time of year because it's everywhere x

Finlay is 18 months old now, he will turn 2 around 6 weeks after baby is born. They are both baby baker as well xxx

I had scan on thurs, I'm now 21 weeks. Everything was fine but have to go back in 2 weeks for another as she couldn't get all measurements as baby was curled up all cosy. She did say she was quite sure that I'm having another little boy, which is great news as I still have all of Finlay's baby...

I have my 20 week scan tomorrow and I'm so excited. Enjoy your scan xxx

I had no sickness or any other pregnancy symptoms with Finlay, I took at least 6 tests in the 4 weeks from finding out I was expecting til 12 week scan just to make sure I was pregnant. This time around is so different, I found out I was pregnant at 8 weeks again and I only took test because I...

With Finlay I planned to start maternity 1 week before due date then take all 4 weeks holiday before, which I just about managed. I had a kidney infection, about 2 weeks before my holiday started, this started early labour so was kept in hospital overnight to monitor, luckily labour stopped and...

Hi Cai, The day before Finlay's due date I felt very damp and I too thought my waters had gone, went to triage and was told no they haven't. My waters then went that night and Finlay was born next day. Good luck xxx I woke up really excited yesterday as I am now 17 weeks and able to phone and...

Congrats Allimack he is gorgeous. I had to have an emergency c section with Finlay so got an idea how you're feeling, but agree so worth it all to have them in your arms xxxx

Hi everyone, I'm Sophie and I've just found out I'm expecting. I have a 15 month old little boy, i gained 3 stone but lost 2 stone with sw after he was born. I rejoined a couple of weeks ago but since finding out on Saturday I've been completely off plan and have really bad nausea at the moment...

Hi, just checked as I have these in my kitchen. Summer berry flapjack 5pp Popcorn 3pp X

Hi, I have both books, 'the 2 day diet' and 'the fast diet'. They are very different diets. After years of counting points and syns I didn't want to be too restricted anymore. I first read 'the 2 day diet' after it was featured in the daily mail tried it for a week but found I was still...

Hi everyone and well done! Another 1lb off for me this week, 19 1/2lbs so far x

Im going to keep going, want to lose just over 4 stone now. I'm finding it really easy to stick with this time round, firstly cause I've struggled being this big and haven't got any clothes that fit. And secondly for Finlay, want to be as fit as I can for him and keep up with him when he's...

Hi ladies, not been around for a while. Hope everyone is doing ok. I'm still going to sw each week and now lost a total of 18 1/2 lbs in 8 weeks, I'm chuffed. Got just over a stone to get to my pre-pregnancy weight. Still not able to do much exercise, anything other then walking makes me feel...

Hi everyone, had a busy week and not been here a lot. Hope everyone is ok. Finlay had a lump come up in his groin area, dr thought it was a hernia and referred us to see paeditrition. Been trying to get my head round idea of him having an operation and been really emotional. Luckily it's not...

Sts for me this week : ( don't think I ate enough though. Most days not enough syns and didn't manage he's either x

I'm awful with the amount of water I don't drink. Think I'll get myself a bottle then fill and empty it every day x

Just got back from doctors and it wasn't as bad as I thought. Finlay had a little moan and was then fine. We're back home now having cuddles in front of the tv x

I don't mind needles, don't like them that much either. Just don't know what I'll be like when they put one in my babies leg. I'm sure I'll be fine. Just got back from wi, sts for me this week. Didn't write anything down this week and sure I didn't eat enough x

Got my appointment Friday and little man having his jabs then too : ( Everyone's at work so have to go by myself, not looking forward to it at all x

Morning, Well done for all your losses!! 2nd weigh in for me and I lost 3lbs this week, 7lbs all together x

Hi oasis, I'm really well thanks. Finlay is 8 weeks old on Sunday. Health visitor weighed him this morning and he is now 12 lb 4.5 oz, think I'm going to have a chubby baby if he keeps gaining at this rate. But my weight is going down, I lost 3lbs this week (just come back from wi). I didn't...

My overhang was awful, really wasn't expecting it. But 8 weeks later it's looking better. Good luck with weigh in ladies x

Hi, I think some HEs decreased. I know weetabix crunchy bran went from 42g to 35g. That's the only one I've noticed x

My little man is Finlay.

Hi can I join you lovely ladies please?. My bubba is 7 weeks old tomorrow and i started back at slimming last week. My starting weight was 230lbs, current weight 226lbs and my target weight is 146lbs. Thanks x

Hi, There is a stickie thread for pregnancy and SW, don't think I've seen a weekly weigh in one though HTH Sophie x

Hi everyone, can I join you please. I'm Sophie and I became a mummy 6 weeks ago. I put on 3 stone during my pregnancy so now have 6 stone to lose. Joined SW last thurs and lost 4lbs in my first week. Hope everyone else had a good week. Sophie x

I have an actifry and I love it. Depends what you're making for syns. But with free veg you would just syn the oil. I tend to use fry light most of the time. They aren't cheap but worth every penny, had mine for over 2 years now and it gets used at least twice a week.

I joined last week, felt obliged to weigh in and stay to class. They weighed in new members last so everyone would have known you weren't staying. But having said that I'm glad I stayed. I've joined before just to get books, think its done quite often x

Hi everyone, hope you don't mind me joining you on this thread. My little boy Finlay is 5 weeks old and up until yesterday I was expressing. Had a bit of a traumatic labour, Finlay was back to back (had failed forceps and then a c section) he wouldn't latch on but it has been getting really hard...

I've been struggling to eat since having baby, no appetite at all. Think problem is I've always ate out of boredom and I haven't had a chance to be bored. And it's starting to effect my mood and will start to affect my milk supply. I'm counting points to eat more not less. I've ate more last...

Hi, I've also just started ww after having a baby. My little boy is 4 weeks old x

Thanks. It's so hard when you're used to having low point meals and snacks. And only ever buy low fat, low sugar foods. I haven't weighed in yet, it's my 2nd day today x

Hi, I'm exclusively breastfeeding and my daily propoint allowance is 49, but I'm really struggling to eat this many points (never thought id ever say that). I have no appetite at the moment and so busy with new baby that I'm forgetting to eat. Anybody have any advice? Seems like a lot of points x

Not sure what I'll do for weight loss at the moment. I seem to have lost my appetite since having Finlay, I'm still eating regular meals but because I have to. I'm edging towards ww as thinking convenience but I like flexibility of sw. Might try both and see which one suits me best now I'm a...

The midwife, doctor and everyone who was in theatre were fab and it was quite calm considering. Which helped a lot, and I prepared myself for every possibility just in case so didn't feel phased at all. Just happy that little man was healthy. Expressing milk means oh can help with feeds so makes...

He sleeps ok at night but is quite restless during the day and wants to be held all the time. Think he's had too many cuddles last 2 weeks. He wouldn't latch on to me so I'm expressing my milk and he's feeding really well. I was determined he'd have my milk, firstly cause its obviously better...

Thank you. I've only posted a few times x

Hi everyone, My little baby boy was born on his due date 6th may. Finlay David Baker, 7lb 13. Everything was going well, waters went at 22:00 fully dilated by 14:00 next day with only gas and air. But Finlay was back to back and not going anywhere. Had to have an epidural to hold off pushing...

Hi oasis6918, We wanted a surprise so don't know if I'm pink or blue, can't wait to find out now. I've really enjoyed being pregnant and completely forgot about food and ate what I wanted and it's been a nice break from stressing about diets. But really missed exercise and can't wait to get...

Hi ladies, I've not been around a lot but hoping I'm next to meet my baby, due this Sunday. Just come back from midwife and babies head is fully engaged, so all ready just waiting for it now. One minute can't wait to have baby, next don't want to lose my bump and share baby. I've tried to...

Morning everyone, I've got 17 days til due date, and starting to feel really anxious now. Every little ache or pain I feel, I think is this it?. I'm so excited and can't wait. I've been so uncomfortable last couple of weeks and can't wait to meet my baby x

I've had awful heartburn too, I'm now living off gaviscon which sometimes works fantastically and other times gives me 5 minutes relieve x

Hi, I was on the pill for over 15 years and conceived within a month of coming off it. I expected it to take a while but was not at all, which was a bit of a shock.

I'm 33 weeks on Sunday x

It scared me into watching what I eat from now on, making sure I'm in a relatively good condition to deal with whatever birth I have. OBEM has so many lovely births too.

Morning ladies, I had to leave the room watching OBEM last night. It scared me too so I'm back on track today, hoping to limit mine and babies weight gain now x

Morning everyone, hope everyone is ok. I'm finally back on plan and finding it easy(ish), had a good couple of days and feel so much better for it. I'm now 25 weeks and can feel every movement baby makes, which is amazing, just cant wait for oh to be able to feel it too. Feels like baby is...

Congrats Leanne x

Good luck Leanne, hopefully there's be some good news posted by time I get back on here at lunch time. I have 16 weeks and 3 days left, and I can't wait!! I was worried about my downs test result as I'm overweight and in my 30's but had a letter a couple of weeks after 2nd test was done...

Hi everyone, I've been reading all your posts for last couple of days so thought it about time I join in. My name is Sophie and I'm 23 weeks pregnant today with my first. So far put on just over 1 1/2 stone and don't want to put on much more so starting slimming world again. Hoping for lots of...

Hi, I'm Sophie and starting again today. I'm 22 weeks pregnant and trying to limit what I put on. Hoping for encouragement and ideas x

Hi, anyone else gone from dukan to SW? I spent 8 weeks on dukan and lost 14lbs but decided it was too restrictive and came back to SW 2 weeks ago. I have stayed the same weight since switching, really surprised not to have gained. Just wondered if anyone had done the same and what you're...

Honk!!!!! Day 6

Great idea with the timer plug, hadn't thought about that. I love mine but don't use it too often as out house for long days. But I will, off to buy a plug now x

I love mine, I make chips in it all the time. Roast vegetables are yummy as are quorn sausages. Ive used it to make chilli and curry and they worked really well. I got mine 2 years ago and worth every penny, use it every other day.

Thank you x

Am I right in thinking 2 of these are a hexb?

Hi, can I join you please?!! I'd like to lose 7lb before I go on holiday on 24th sept. Thanks

Hi, I'm also in Gloucester x

I'm sat here trying to plan what to eat tomorrow as I'm too going for 'all you can eat' chinese, I'm going to think the same and remember what I want more. Think I'm going to have something before I go and stick to boiled rice and stirfry veg. And hope they have some lean meat, I have a few syns...

I'd also like to join in please. Going on holiday 24th sept and want to be 7lb lighter!!

Scrambled egg on toast for breakfast, hexb. Lunch was Chicken Salad, 2tbsp of mayo 1 syn. Cheese hexb. Not sure on dinner yet.

Honk Honk, day 2

Hi Kelly, I've just come back to SW, for the last time. This time I'm going to stick with it and suceed. Good luck and I'm looking foward to getting to you and others on here too. Sophie x

Ibiza, last week in sept. Self catering, going to take some oatbran with me, and I'm thinking should be able to get a few things from supermarket like yogurt, chicken breasts, eggs etc. One good thing is I dont really drink so thats not going to be a problem.

Which is a much needed one. But I dont know how diciplined I can be with all the tempation around. I love Dukan and the way it suits me perfectly and hoping I can remember that whilst away and cooking not so easy. Any tips and ideas on surviving would really be appreicated x

Ordered mine last night after your recommendation. Thanks

Hi Tomorrows menu: B-Scrambled eggs. Oatbran muffin. L-Chicken Salad. 0% total greek yogurt. D-Bolognese and courgette. Frozen yogurt (homemade with ff yogurt) 45 minutes gym Any advise will be gratefully recieved, as I'm not losing very quickly, thanks

I like total 0% Greek yogurt with a little bit of sweetener in, it's really thick and creamy

I bought these but they do have added sugar so they're arent really allowed. I bought 2 Activia yogurts today though, mango and raspberry as these dont have added sugar so can have these (as a tolerated)

I think it's because they have added sugar. 'offical rules' say must have less then 2% fat and no added sugar. But if you eat them and still lose weight there obviously isnt a problem with having the odd one

Hi everyone, I'm Sophie, thought I'd introduce myself and say hi!!!!! I've just completed 5 days on attack and lost 7lbs, : ) really pleased with myself. Started cruise this morning and feeling very positive, fingers crossed I'll stick with it and reach my goal weight by Christmas. Hoping...

Honk!!!! Last day of attack today. Can't wait to weigh in the morning x
