    Feel Like Such A Fraud :(

    Sounds like you've got a great attitude about it and can turn it to a positive :)

    Alcohol at the weekends

    I had been doing, not sure it's recommended but I can forgo most things, but not my weekend wine! I do more or less syn free (perhaps having 2 or 3 syns a day at most) and then enjoy my wine at the weekend :D I've lost 2.5 stone so far, although it has taken me 7 months. I've not had a drink so...

    Saving syns?

    I usually save mine for wine, although I am having a month off - it's been a bit odd re-learning what syns I can have!

    Joining and 12 week countdown

    I've bought 12 week countdowns since I started in mid-July, and find they help me to keep going as I've already paid so feel I 'may as well' go, and also can't use not having some cash in my pocket as an excuse for not going. I also managed to time it so I got the summer offer with cookbook...

    High syn foods you refuse to compromise

    Wine :D I've tried drinking lower-syn alternatives but drinking vodka etc just turns me into a raving looney so I have to save enough syns so I can have a glass or 2 of red :cool:

    What Christmas food are you most excited about?

    Quorn pie

    i've messed up!

    I've just had a quick look online and they look pretty much the same to me anyway so I think you'll be ok :)

    i have grown!

    I have done the same, for years I thought I was 5 foot 3 but my other half measured me recently and told me I was nearer 5'4" :D He couldn't figure quite why I was so pleased until I told him about the BMI thing ;)

    Cerazette

    I took it for about 3 months after having my daughter, and bled constantly, it was awful. I stopped taking it and tried a different brand instead (femulen I think). One of the reasons the nurse gave me Cerazette was that it is similar in what it contains to the implant, and if I reacted badly to...

    Well done! Good luck with getting your 2 stone soon. Sure you'll be able to lose that before you get married :) :) I've lost 4lb this week so at 15.9 and a half. Looking forward to hopefully getting another half stony shiny next week if I can keep up being good :D

    Thursday Weighers

    Hello Thursday weighers, I am joining you as I have just changed to a Thursday evening group. Was a bit worried as I was weighing in first thing in the morning previously and thought I'd have a STS or gain this week but I lost 4lb :eek: most yet :eek: and got SOTW :D Hope everyone else has...

    Weetabix Crunchy Bran

    I like it too, I have mine mixed with mullerlight yogurt because I don't like milk (and that way I still have 2 HEA's left as well) :)

    Tuesday Weighers

    Sorry :o I normally would be really chuffed with that, I think as I was so near losing a stone I was just so focused on that - my little boy asked me where my certificate was when i got back from group and I had to tell him I hadn't quite done it :( Anyway, I've cheered up a bit now, well done...

    Tuesday Weighers

    Just joining in on this thread as I'm a Tuesday weigher :wave_cry: Bit gutted this week as although I've lost 1.5lb I've been REALLY good all week, and done a lot of exercise too, and was hoping for 2lb so I could get my 1 stone award :( Looks like it will be next week now instead, I'm really...

    Why have you chosen SW?..

    What everyone else said :D I love that it works for all of us as a family, and that I've hardly felt hungry at all. I already ate fairly healthy meals, but also too much of the wrong things, so learning how to keep the healthy bits but limit things like bread, cheese (and wine and chocolate!)...

    Would anyone go back

    In the last month I have had 2 meals that were like what I would've had before I started SW - I didn't enjoy them anywhere near as much as I thought I would, and felt rubbish afterwards (really bloated and full). The only thing I really miss is drinking as much wine as I want! :party0036:

    Which SW plan are you following (sorry if this thread has been done in the past)

    Another green day veggie here :D Quite glad I only have to stick to one, I think I'd get a bit confused swapping about ;) Although I'm sure it all becomes second nature after a bit :)

    Swimming & Costumes

    Just wanted to say good luck and go for it - I've been going swimming 3 times a week since May and am now swimming a mile each time I go :D I hated the idea of being in a cossie as well but found the thought of it was worse than it actually was, no one pays any attention really, and I put my...

    Laxido - TMI THREAD

    That can't be very nice for you, and very disheartening if you are 100% on plan. Could you do some sort of detox to try and get your system moving a bit? are you drinking enough water and getting enough fibre? Hope you start to feel better soon anyway xx

    Artificial sweeteners!

    There has been a lot written about the effects of using artificial sweeteners. Apart from low fat yogurts :o I tend to avoid them, and I know if I give my little boy anything 'sugar free' (ie with asparteme in) it has a dramatic effect on his behaviour :( Makes me think they are no good at all...
