Thanks for the help everyone, I have a friend who's a Dietician and he highly recommended my fitness pal to me over the weekend, so I'll give that a try. In the meantime, I've eaten some salads, cut out some junk, and got back on the bike including leaving home at 4:40 am this morning to ride...

I decided last week on holiday after struggling to keep up with my 2 young boys (I'm 33 so should have plenty of energy!) that I'm sick of feeling lousy, lethargic, eating junk, having aches & pains especially in my back, and that it was time to do something about it. I owe it to my wife & kids...

Hi folks, I know about the healthy range hot choc such as Options, but how do you figure out the calories in unbranded hot drinks, ie the hot chocolate you would get in a cafe? Are there generic figures for these anywhere? Done with SW and WW, just trying to calorie count for a few weeks and...

Bump! Surely I'm not the only one who treats themself to a cafe bacon butty now and then?! Any ideas anyone?

the butterscotch candies are pants! i was excpecting them to taste even just a bit like Werthers Originals, they didn't taste of butterscotch whatsoever, they didn't taste good at the time and left a horrid taste in the mouth :(

The 'chilled desserts' section in the Shop book is pretty rubbish, can anyone help with the following? Aero mint mousse Ski lemon mousse Rolo dessert Thanks!

bump!

Am I right in thinking that you get to Gold membership (ie free weigh-ins/meetings!) when you get into the 'healthy' range of your BMI? I ask because I'm tall and of big build and the very top end of 'healthy' for me seems virtually impossible to me. Seems like I will be paying forever unless...

I sometimes grab lunch at the cafe where I play golf, I am not sure how you're supposed to work out points for greasy spoon type cafe meals. Is there some kind of generic list for these anywhere? I basically have a bacon butty which consists of a fairly big white barm cake, some spread, 3...

Managed it! Lost 3 last week so 11 off in total (target was 10 off in first 4 weeks through June). Need to try hard as July includes birthday and a week away, then we're away quite a bit in August too. Out of curiosity, this may seem very sad but - has anyone popped into a meeting to get...

Half a pound off last week, 2 to go, hopefully get it done tonight.

thanks, nice one! Thought it might be more than that.

Bump! I want to know the answer too.........

Anyone know? Its missing from the Shop book and I need to buy the calculator at next group! Thanks

Hi Topper, I'm 2 weeks into WW after having done SW and losing over 2 stone on it, however when I got to a weight I was pleased with, for some unexplained reason I flipped, went off the rails and started stuffing my cakehole like I was making up for all the naughty stuff I'd been missing out...

I did feel very bad on the night, I was furious with myself later on, I ate so much I didn't think I'd be able to get to sleep, as long as you dust yourself off and come out fighting the next day, thats the main thing! Actually I think my face-stuffing antics that day taught me a good lesson...

Thanks for the welcome, I lost 5 pounds this week so thats 7.5 over 2 weeks which I'm really chuffed with especially with a poor start to the week! :)

Hi all, Hope I'm not too late to join this! Had my first weigh-in since joining last Monday and lost 2.5, so hoping for 10 pounds by last June weigh-in. I work shifts so every 3rd week I have to get weighed at a Tues morning group so can't wait to get tomorrow morning out the way after a week...

Anyone know how many points in Velvet Crunch 20g bag crisps? In particular the cheddar cheese & spring onion ones. I'm not a crisp fiend anyway but these are good to keep you going if you need something crunchy!

Anyone know how many points for a Dolmio Pasta Vita (Fusili Bolognese 300g) ? Thanks :jelous:

Whoops, when I got in there I saw that it was eat all you like fish and chip buffet, I totally lost the plot and chose this, stuffed my face, and felt dreadful for the rest of the night. I still can't believe I could be that stupid! I have the Eat Out book now and will study it carefully before...

Hi all, its my first time on WW. Had success with SW before but after leaving and going back to it for one more pitiful attempt that lasted a mere couple of weeks before I flipped and piled on more weight, taking me to more than what I was when I first started it :(, I decided I needed the...

Hi folks, joined WW on Monday and need to get the Shop and Eat Out books next week, am a bit stuck without them really. Going to Brewer's Fayre later, what are the less bad things I can have there? Any ideas appreciated! :jelous:

Woohoo! 4 pounds off in first week!

thanks. I had to do it, first weigh-in later today, been a tough first week but I've had to fight through it as i remembered last time feeling horrible on the first week and i know it passes, the first few days are the worst! yeah i was amazed how one week of being slack turns into 2, and before...

EE. I like a lot of pasta type stuff but don't want to get bored of it

Any help out there for meal ideas for a salad dodger? I really struggle with vegetables, some stuff i can just about force down and others i simply can't stomach. A lot of the recipes I have seen in the mags, books etc are very heavy on the veg. Fruit can be a struggle too but there are some...

Hi, my name is Dave, I'm 32 and returning to Slimming World but its my first time on here. I first joined Sep 2010 and left around April this year at a weight I was reasonably happy with thinking I would go it alone with what i had learnt. Well I have eaten a large slice of humble pie (how many...

Anyone know the syns in each one? They are very tiny so you keep thinking 'just one more' !
