I have used the report button several times on this thread! and i wasn't the one who re brought this up!

Then stop laughing about it and making snide comments about it!!! it was over till you and another brought it up again! its not just me, this is proven so don't victimise me saying its all my fault when i'm not the only one

Just sticking up for those who need it

Can people not draw a line under it and move on, laughing and being snidey about it is making it become a bullying issue enough is enough, yes some people are sensitive but thats why some of them are on here for help and support, thats all people want i know some that wouldn't be on here if they...

If it helps I had a friend with the same problem and it did eventually go it just took a while x

yep still free just not stewed or juiced

I think at some point we all go through this and feel ashamed of ourselves, you were away and wanted to enjoy yourself who doesn't.. just get back on track and look back on it with nothing but good memories which i hope it was x

I often think that the best diet is when you stop thinking of it as a diet and as a way of life, i do with slimming world because to me it still lets you have more than enough treats and ive never felt better!

I agree and tend to do green because it costs me less and my tummy loves it! :)

Wow thats amazing.. do you have a food diary?

Thats right you keep going, sounds to me like you already know most of the answers yourself, * weeks are a ***** lets just hope next week will be the loss your looking for x

I take it this is after last night lol! I hope you can its definitely worth a try at least! let me know how you get on x

is it still 42g as a hex b?

ha ha Back on track then??

OMG hope you enjoyed it lol! :eek:

cottage cheese mixed vegetables beans on my list every week! Oh and of course fruit

Yes I do alot of walking and those weeks i have been more like trekking i can actually gain a pound but i lose the inches! Thats what keep me going and stopped me weighing myself and just going from the inch loss to be honest but that is just me and i don't attend meetings just go off my own...

Jacket potato beans and mixed vege

What does your consultant say about it?

I weigh every friday sorry but i am going it alone, happy to help if you need it x

Slimming World - Food Diaries - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum start a thread here and occasionally ask in the main forum for some one to go and have a look as it may get missed otherwise, but keep going I know you may get disheartened by little to know loss but we will get to the...

Alot of people post food diarys on here, it may be worth starting one (Dont give up by any means) so we can have a look and help you out!

Well said and i agree, its just saving my syns works for me so I'll stick to that, but very well said and true :)

Hi Welcome to minimins, No probs with your food diary so far, some may ask are you eating enough? What has been your weight record since november?

very true x

Was pretty much going to say the same Extra Easy is the new one on me, i stick to red and green mainly green. Good luck x :)

sorry i thought it was both fruit and vege, i forgot about soup, thought it wasn't exactly right when i was writing it

I think juicing super free has a syn value because your bodies not taking in the bulk it needs to feel full as you would feel less full taking in juice than you would if it were whole, good idea but sorry not syn free i don't think

Mixed fruit and low fat yogurt

Pasta and mixed vege

I carry syns over to the weekend most times and it doesn't hinder my losses even though i know strictly your not really meant too

To stop people getting petty and making it into something that it isn't

No i don't think so, I think you'll find its quite a few people going on about rudeness and bad manners which makes it more of a significant problem and less of just petty arguing for the sake of it! Anyway do you not think that instead of posting here and carrying on something that has already...

absolutely

Anyway enough is enough now, we already know that if any more rude or offensive comments are made to report them and that does count for all of us. I enjoy posting on here and the feedback I get I just hope we can keep posting with genuine problems and the feedback maintains a well mannered standard

I agree the support is great but there still lies a problem as is shown in this thread

If you read further up its not just on everyday questions or syn values

for the people it concerns, i think we are going to have to do this in future!!

It has been a few threads and its not a problem for us to do a search its the way we are being spoken to by other members. Like i say its not just me its affecting other people too therefore it does need addressing

Maybe but it is a problem on here and not just a problem ive got

its not just syn values though

I'm sorry but i agree with lucylu79 and it seem to be the same 2 members

to have more vege in my diet with meals i think

Has to be pasta and cottage cheese i dont know why but it is i'm still waiting to get sick of it

I'm a syn saver and tend to use some if not most on a weekend i don't binge and it works for me, however this is not always advised by consultants and other members :)

they look lovely thanks for the inspiration

Pasta mixed vege and cottage cheese

Hi, good luck this time, there are lots of people on here who have restarted a few times so plenty in the same boat for support!! Are you attending meetings or doing it off your own back?

All bran again need to change soon i think

Please don't give up you are working really hard, from what i figure you are doing loads of exercise your bodies developing lots of muscle which weighs more than fat, how are you in your clothes are you losing inches? Its a pretty strange comment made by your consultant she should deter you away...

Sorry but Its true and it has happened to several people on here now not just me and I think thats uncalled for really I don't mean to offend anyone but there are people out there on here that do and its really not right

just make sure you search the forums before asking a question as some people get funny on here if you ask the same question twice

you look amazing

no one else then?

No i didn't think that i just wanted to know what was right and wrong, i know i need to add more vege and fruit in to my diet i am going to start next week to have it with every meal :)

Please see http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world/116347-slimming-world-faqs.html as it doesn't say on here that you should have a 3rd of your plate full of superfree foods only on extra easy and thats not the plan i am on. yes i am going it alone and try to use this place as support, on the...

Too much fibre can make you constipated

im on green days whats not following the plan????????

I tend to snack on fruit and vege inbetween meals I have to admit i'm not the biggest vege fan but do get them into me for one meal a day

Okay well thanks for your reply, nice to know i'm not eating too much anyway feels like alot to me though as it certainly fills my plate. I do love doing green days as it keep me the most satisfied It just would have been nice to have had an explanation instead of a short comment

I save my syns for it and it works for me

Whats not normal?

okay what isn't normal???????

Did you have all your syns each day, some people on here say if you don't have your syns it can hinder a loss? Half a pound is nothing really and i wouldn't be so disheartned your metabolism needs to get going again, do you keep a food diary?

No it is within my allowance its just my mind and tummy don't really want it so i was eating it for the sake of eating and to realise that just makes me happier!

I am finally in completely the right mind set to take this plan on and succeed, just had to share it, I have just had 2 slices of toast with jam and felt quite guilty about it and knew i didn't need it so i know the next time i feel i should have a treat not to do it because i want to be skinny...

nothing as holding out for a takeaway tonight, just had breakfast so not hungry anyway

Just trying to help

Are you checking your weight everyday??? I think i fluctuate during the week Im not too sure on the extra easy though sorry

All bran of course

Grapefruit! The grapefruit diet is not a myth. Researchers at Scripps Clinic found that participants who ate half a grapefruit with each meal in a 12-week period lost an average of 3.6 pounds. The study indicates that the unique chemical properties in this vitamin C-packed citrus fruit reduce...

Its good to know though

Good question i would also like to know.

??????????????

i know but i was stuffed i do have big hands

maybe of use http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world/264504-fat-vs-muscle.html

Thanks i know, i only did the same thing for dinner didn't i, I have 2 handfuls of dried pasta and 2 tablespoons of cottage cheese i think i need only 1 handful of pasta next time

pasta and cottage cheese and over stuffed myself again

Good luck hope it goes well for you this time round you sound really committed just stay positive and keep on track, we are here if you don't and need support! just take one small step at a time and things will start to change for you x good luck

Okay stand corrected

Does any of you save syns up for the weekend? and still lose well?

exactly just knock them off the next day then stay on track x

Last year i got down to a size 8-10 by eating small amounts of pasta and rice based meals, at the time i swore i would never put the weight back on but here i am a size 14-16 so my turning point is now and every day when i know i can lose the weight and be back there but stay on slimming world...

I'm a rejoiner only a few weeks old so hope it goes well for you this time!

follow your own advice, don't binge if you don't feel its right, i dont think it is! 1/2 a pound is nothing and could just be water, stay on track and head for a loss the week after, your going to get nowhere again if you binge just keep positive, who knows your next weigh in could be a big loss!

If you know your pattern try bingeing on your favourite free food or save some syns up for the day before weigh in therefore you'll stay on plan!! I've only been 100% for a short while so i expect i will eventually crave junk at some point and hopefully will put my own words in to practice! Or...

okay :o

no not saying that exactly just that we on here should maybe acknowledge inch loss for others as a support group i know i certainly lose the inches before the pounds

I know i probably being over silly its just ive been losing lately and today i feel full on just a few mouth fulls

I think that people on here should acknowledge inch loss for other members, as exercise increases muscle density which can make you heavier but lose the inches, surely we're not going to promote lack of exercise as a way to lose weight!

.. i have eaten today until i am full instead of satisfied on pasta for lunch, I had the same amount yesterday and was fine but today just feel stuffed.. Have i blown it?:o

pasta and cottage cheese really full though oh and a muller light

I think that you should keep a record of your measurements and congratulate your self and have inch loss aims, I never weigh myself i only go by how i look in the mirror and feel in my clothes, i know i have about 3 stone to lose but doing slimming world off my own back, my way, works for me...

great site !!

just to keep losing visuallyx

keep going you sound like your on the right track just keep 100% and enjoy your syns x

yes your bodies just getting used to being healthier keep it up it will settle

chocolate and cream

yes well something need to be said x

no i mean everyone stop posting

then stop posting

yes portion sizes, are you eating until stuffed or satisfied?

forum rules respected, i'm just making the point that there are several questions the same!

okay welsh tigger sorry to have bothered you, by the way there are several people who post the same question again and again on here, people still answer!!! it wouldn't be much of a forum if we all just did the same as you would it?

sounds lovely will stop any hunger pangs for a while, enjoy

Jacket potato and cottage cheese

just checked couldn't find much on it, would really like your thoughts

not weighed today or ever as just go by clothes size, congratulations on your losses hope they remain the same for you, its great to hear when people are doing well it gives me and hopefully others a boost too.

sorry thought it was an over asked question just guess i had to ask

I snack on apples they take hunger away, water seems to work with alot of people, ice cold is meant to burn more calories, alot of people say up the super free

an obvious question but to the people out there which one have you had the best loss with red or green? :p

Yes you can do it if you say you cant and give up then theres no hope for the rest of us, we will all go through the stage your going through now, what would you say to us if we posted this? if you really want it just stay within your syns and really enjoy them theres no need to go over board...

hmmm Im a green dayer on all the other days i get too hungry and i actually eat less on a green day and my tummy is happier

why is that?

Sounds lovely what plan do you do??

It should reduce bloating?

it can aid weight loss as it flushes your system but it is also good for stress too apparently it eases it, i drink loads

I pretty much am the same not a fan of superfree so the weight loss may be slower but if i was off plan i would diet and binge !

Sorry mate i tend to stick with the allbran as I get the fiber from this as im not much of a vege and fruit fan!

your going to have to get used to the ups and downs in weight loss, you cant expect the same thing each week, some weeks you may stay the same but on the whole if your losing thats what counts, try keeping a food diary so you can track your good weeks and bad weeks there may be a pattern but on...

its not being naughty though is it if you stay within your syns

I would just skip it and jump straight in to the plan thats what i have done cause i thought the whole motto of slimming world was that its not a diet as such but a healthy way of eating so it seems strange for them to through a diet into it doesn't it?

Wow i dont think i could get away with a cheat night, i save my syns for the weekend andhope that i dont go over but i think if i cheated once every week after weigh in my losses would stay the same

I agree you have stayed within your syns so i hope you enjoyed it without feeling guilty because your allowed it!!!!! x

remember to use your syns wisely, it should stop you from bingeing and going off track you've had some good loses so you know you can do it you just need to stick with it and get back on track every one nearly falls off the wagon at some point but we all jump back on and get to our goals, we are...

All bran as always

I just need to know if i am doing it right or not???????????

Well surely burning fat can only be a good thing!

No i am weighing it just sometimes i estimate but only on occasions the scales in the wash

I use it as my hex a and band sort of measuring it

I heard of ketosis but only from diets like Atkins and dukan which are very low carb diets

Cottage cheese

please let me know what you think i am currently on green days as my tummy feels most satisfied on green and have been for the last two weeks since i started I am very sedentary for lunch i will have pasta a good couple of handfuls of the dried pasta with cottage cheese or a plate full...

havent lost any yet to notice but hopefully soon

I dont know as ive never been i use this site as my meeting place

Pasta and cottage cheese

good luck hope everything goes as well as you hope i have 3 stone to lose and its coming off really slow i too knocked alcohol on the head and only have it on very special occassions Hopefully this will help. I am more determined this time than ever as i too have stopped and started sw on a...

sounds restricting when you put it like that and a little daunting still love it though and its true

this is a really good forum for support at any time. Ive been doing slimming world on and off for over a year and i'm determined to stick to it this time but its easier as i have cut out alcohol nearly altogether. so the syns stack up easily I have three stone to lose and i am a large size 14 at...

eat until your satisfied and not to over stuff yourself

rice peas cottage cheese

I freeze chunks of apple and its always fine so i presume pineapple will be okay you can get frozen pineapple from tesco !!

brown rice peas and cottage cheese there is already a very similar thread for this!!

Click on the download torrent link and it should down load you may need a programme called "utorrent" to help you install the information

I started to do slimming world and found most of the information on here that i needed i do however have a copy of the foods you are allowed including the hex a and b's and syn list that i downloaded through a website called Isohunt just type slimming world in there and you should find the same...

try syn section

Metabolism rates vary too from person to person

I agree men lose faster especially if they cut down on the booze! Coffee is known to help speed the metabolism i drink it black maybe its the milk is it skimmed or semi skimmed and how much is she going over her hex a allowance

Green all the way

Please could people tell me how much is too much as i feel this is interfering with my weight loss drastically. I.e. for lunch i had 2 handfuls of dried pasta (i have big hands) and about 4 tablespoons cottage cheese :o

I have been trying to do slimming world on and off yet never followed it properly this time i plan to do that!

Inspiring

Actually I find i fluctuate in shoe sizes too when my weight goes up and down he he x

We are here when you need us!! Good Luck x

Completely the same only have a few that do fit but this year i too am gonna make that change :p

I have been doing slimming world for the past couple of weeks with the exception of a couple of days off now i am willing to through my self into it completely saving my syns for the weekends staying away from alcohol, i am however on the drug quetiapine i think this may slow hinder my losses...

there you go.. I never weigh myself and always go by how my clothes feel and how i look in the mirror!

Excersize can increase muscle density are you looking smaller clothes wise without the weight measurement???

I feel the need to actually look at what i am eating and i think its not what I eat but how much of it i eat!!! Allbran 84g x2 hexb's Pasta 2 dried handfuls 1/2 tin of beans 2 tablespoons cottage cheese 3 apples 2 hard boiled egg 1 muller light

I feel the need to actually look at what i am eating and i think its not what I eat but how much of it i eat!!! Allbran 84g x2 hexb's Pasta 2 dried handfuls 1/2 tin of beans 2 tablespoons cottage cheese 3 apples 2 hard boiled egg 1 muller light

Simple rice and peas with cottage cheese

I go it alone and am hoping to lose I have only just started but am hoping to get support from here and get back to a size 10

How do people manage it, I am pregnant and a stay at home wife currently studying and I feel the need to eat all the time I need help!! :wave_cry:

Green Day all bran hexb pasta and baked beans (morning sickness kicked in so needed something light) cheddar cheese hex a 2 toasts oops with jam syns used up i think Pasta with beans again but loving it as it soothes my tummy 2 muller lights

It always used to be alcohol with me this time round however im pregnant so i dont have that worry stick with it you have loads of support on here just rant and moan along with the rest of us or maybe you do need a day off and then jmp straight back into it with a fresher head!

good luck im with you on this i start monday after the many times before i am determined this time and i have a child to do it for this time

I'm starting slimming world next week and i am pregnant 6 weeks 2 days, my doc has okay'd the diet i am looking forward to joining you all in your daily events, I am a bit of a snackaholic which is one reason i think this diet will work for me, i think green days will work for me best as i don't...

yes definatly

please advise me whether or not this is safe to do ?

I am starting slimming world next week and i am pregnant is the anything else i need to know other than the basic slimming world plan? :) I know there is a pregnancy sticky but finding advice on there is like finding a needle in a hay stack!

how do you have your shakes and not feel the need to pick at things all day, I am a house wife/student and find it really very hard not to pick at food during the day! :o

Weight gain and yet still succeeding to lose weight via slim fast :wave_cry:

Keep it up it has to come off eventually, please dont give up you may have a bigger loss in a week or so to make up for the smaller losses, your body needs routine and to know its not starving so may be you need to have your snacks and meals at regular times x

i wish i did stuggle to fit the snacks in it would lower my weight, although i am doing better than i was!

Hi i am on my second week of slim fast with a weekend off I have to admit i struggle not to snack over the recommended three 100 calorie snacks, it is my fault however as i have them all in one go in the form of belvita biscuits, its just about keeping busy as i am at home all the time studying!

I'm going to do this, i keep having words with myself and realize that the only way i'm going to lose weight is to keep control and not binge at the end of the week like i have been doing than feeling guilty and having to start all over again because i have just put on what i had lost during the...

Slim fast during the week and then have the weekend off and still lose weight? or does anyone think this will work?

I had them today as my 300 cal snack and feel so guilty even though they are allowed

yep just have to weigh myself and im with you all

Stomach getting smaller i think, I am on day 2 and already my evening meal is filling me up and i'm not even having the full 600 cals I love waiting for my evening meal though and try to make it as delicious as possible

I think the tesco ones are lovely but that is my opinion only 202 calories

I am starting to feel better already if that is anything to go by. just tried tesco chocolate shake and that is lovely too I thought they were going to be horrible but its a gorgeous way to lose weight.

I dont know yet i have just started, they have a lower calorie content if thats anything to go by and theyre cheaper!

yes just on the tesco shakes

has any of you tried the tesco cafe latte version of slimfast it is lovely

If i followed a low calorie 1000 1200 diet for 5 days a week and had a break on the weekend would i still lose weight do you think? Weekend meals about 1 good meal a day or a take away fri sat and sunday

If i followed a low calorie 1000 1200 diet for 5 days a week and had a break on the weekend would i still lose weight do you think? Weekend meals about 1 good meal a day or a take away fri sat and sunday

Why does no one reply?????????????
