I love this post! I see too often on here people criticising others for the choices they make on their slimming journey but as you say every person is different and we all have our own ways of interpreting the plan to fit us. And if it works, who is anyone else to say we are doing it wrong!

I have always done this and wondered if anyone else does! It ultimately didn't do me any favours though! In the beginning I would get myself one (fairly big) treat, but as the months passed I found myself just cramming as much 'naughty food' as I could in the night (and even the day!) after...

Please don't worry! All of these people do have a point about the super free foods, there are obviously many benefits to eating super free foods, but in no way are they the only reason everyone loses weight! I lost almost 2 stone with Slimming World the last time around, and there was not a...

Definitely not going too make mine either Jodie! Trying not to worry about it too much as don't want to spoil my Christmas through hating myself for eating every little thing.. but I'm going to try and be a little more aware and get back to it completely in the new year :)

I just feel like it's not reflective of the lengths I went to! Hehe going to just keep going and see how it goes .. how is everyone planning on getting through Christmas? :)

2.5lbs off tonight, bit disappointed as have eaten so much fruit and superspeed this week. Oh well.. I'll have to step it up next week! Aesir 7lb (2.5lb lost - 4.5lb to go) Annabelle 14lb (10lb lost - 4lb to go) catmonkey 8lb (3.5lb lost - 4.5 lb to go) Jodieboo 8.5lb (0.5lbs lost - 8lb to go)...

Yes I just managed to get myself back on track after a few months of not only not losing weight.. but gaining most of what I had lost! Still have half a stone to lose until I'm back at where I was before I started putting it back on, but feels so good to be going back in the right direction.. I...

Yes I'm definitely going to start making some casseroles after Christmas, I'm also wondering about the soups; are the vegetables all still free if blended up? Just as fruit has to be synned when blended so I was wondering if it was the same?

Lots of fruit! Let's hope it works :D

Then you deserve it! Fabulous achievement! Make sure you look back at this whenever you feel like you might be slipping.. Your achievements are even giving ME motivation to go for it! Thank you!! :D

ermintrude you really are fab eating all that superfree food! With all the determination in the world I've today only managed: Pear Apple Nectarine Oranges Melon Think I'm going to have to start trying out some of these vegetable stews!

Yes it definitely seems soup is the way forward! Unfortunately I really don't like soup. However... it seems I am going to have to learn to like it for the secret to boosted weight loss! Will have a look on the website for some recipes, thanks guys! x

Prepare for the worst and then nothing can disappoint you! I often make the mistake of convincing myself I won't have done that badly.. then come off the scales feeling 10x more horrible when it's way worse than I expected!

Well done everyone :D

Good on you! You can do it :D

Oh and I have to say mrs big b, your weight loss is amazing!!! Well done!!!!

You're all amazing for eating so much superfree! After spending the first few months of SW not eating any superfree I've just started forcing myself fruit to boost my losses ... rediscovered my love of apples :D

Wow Jael! Thank you so much! I have been trying to figure it out all week and it's actually quite simple now you've explained it; I'm slightly annoyed that my consultant hasn't done this though as I am sure there are loads of others in group who would benefit from this info! Thanks again Jael...

Just used up my healthy extras on cheese toastie... yum!

Some great ideas here, going to try them out!

I love making cheese toasties with my cheese as HEA and bread as HEB :) yum yum!

Thanks Suzyflo, I will have a look :)

Also has anyone seen any threads about speed/superspeed foods ? :D

Well done Rachel :D 1.5lbs off tonight :) Halfway there! Aesir 7lb (2.5lb lost - 4.5lb to go) Annabelle 14lb (7.5lb lost - 7.5lb to go) catmonkey 8lb (3.5lb lost - 4.5 lb to go) Jodieboo 8.5lb (0.5lbs lost - 8lb to go) Kirstym 7lb (3.25lb lost - 3.75lb to go) leanerandlighter 7lb (1.5lb lost...

I absolutely adore pancakes!! I am going to have to try this are you sure they taste like pancakes ?!! :D :D :D

I don't get all of this superfree speed superspeed, I didn't even know there was a speed AND superspeed! Thanks anyway ermintrude :)

Well done aesir22 :D

Does anyone know if cherries are superspeed?

Congratulations! :hug99: :family2: :D !! Also congratulations on all the losses and maintains this week.. remember there is no shame in a maintain! :D Happy Slimming fellow slimmers :D

Really gives me motivation to keep going seeing this.. Thank you and well done!

Some great ideas here.. I think I'll buy some popcorn!

Wow I had never thought of this; it sounds amazing! Filo pastry also going straight on my shopping list!

Just reading through all of this I want to applaud you all... you have amazing willpower! I think it's absolutely fabulous you are planning to follow Slimming World over Christmas and I think you should all be proud of yourselves for that! I have told myself I am having the full week off to eat...

Very well done for realising this and doing something about it .. it took me a whole week to get back on track! You will get back into the swing of things just keep focused :D

As said above, you don't have to use HEs .. but you really should take advantage of them I would LOVE to eat extra cheese and bread!!

Have decided not to go for my weigh in this week as have completely not followed plan.. feel so disappointed in myself!

mmm thanks Fairymary I love flakes!!

Are these actually tasty? LOVE cupcakes !!

Have decided I am not going to go and get weighed this week :( Have also had my * week and has made me feel horrible all week! Not stuck to plan or anything :( I HAVE NO WILLPOWER! Going to try and spend tomorrow planning out next week so that I don't keep going astray!! Hope everyone else...

Instead of thinking of all the things you DON'T have.. try thinking of those that you DO have that so many people don't. Also at the end of everything... what's the worst that could happen?

catmonkey I have also gone completely off plan... since my weigh in on Wednesday!!! I am going to have to follow your lead and GET BACK ON IT!!! Well done for getting your willpower back!!! :D

Sounds yummy what exactly does it taste like?

mmm I love harvest chewee bars! Think I'll get some this week...

I should really start planning out all my food.. do you guys end up sticking to your meal plans?

Do these scones actually taste nice? I absolutely adore cheese scones.. it would be amazing if I could eat cheese scones SW style!!

Thanks for clearing this up :) I applaud anyone who does this; I certainly couldn't!

I put on 6lbs one week.. thought I was back on track then fell off again and gained 10! Ashamed to say I didn't even have a holiday to blame for that... just my annoying greed! I think the main point is having the courage to realise where you went wrong and get back on track after a gain :)

Loads of things I shouldn't have done!! Definitely going to have to find a way to work it off!

This exact same thing happened to me and I was dreading to go back into group to find I had gained 10lbs in 2 weeks. This week I lost 6lbs of that gain and it just feels so good to be back on track with losing weight that I just want to continue chopping those lbs off! My biggest tip would be...

Wow thanks ermintrude, I am ashamedly a fussy eater.. but that curry looks lovely! Hadn't really thought about adding small amounts of different vegetables into meals; I always feel like I should be adding full onions/whole cabbages/huge packets of mushrooms etc. into meals to get my superfree!

Thanks guys, went a bit off track today but hoping to get back in control tomorrow :) How is everyone else's week going :D ?

Great to see everyone doing so well :) Had my weekly weigh in tonight and glad I am back on track! Aesir 10lb (1.5lb lost - 8.5lb to go) Annabelle 14lb (6lb lost - 8lb to go) catmonkey 8lb (0lb lost - 8 lb to go) Jodieboo 18lb (2.5 lbs lost - 15.5lb to go) Kirstym 7lb (0.75lb lost - 6.25lb to...

Am I the only one who really hates most SF food?

Is success express changing to having 2/3 SF instead of 1/3 in every meal?

Cadbury's Chocolate Eclairs are 1 1/2 syns each and last for ages .. yum!

I need some tasty snack ideas I am ALWAYS hungry!!

I a also getting bored of the same foods! Where can we find these recipe sub-forums? Would love to try out some new foods :)

Would really like to join this post! Recently went right off track and now back on track would like to lose 14lbs by New Year :D

Why would these not be free?
