hi all Sadly I gained 2.5lbs this week and so have completely failed the Christmas Challenge. On the plus side I had a fab weekend in London - chestnuts on Oxford Street, mulled wine round Greenwich market, chocolate fountain at a party on Monday and oooooo brandy truffles in the office!!! Ooops

Angela - It was as predicted STS. I did say I would be happy to STS throughout the festive period but you can't help being a little disappointed! I set a 12lb challenge by Christmas and I am 3.5lbs away from target. Id love to lose that this week but I think it is unlikely. Feeling a bit down...

:) Wowsers!!! Thats fabulous!! Well done.

Its a STS for me this week. Come on - I must be due a loss!!!!!

Its weigh in for me in an hour and Id be happy with STS. I think I am finding it harder because it is so cold!! I have not cheated as such but have been making jacket potatoes for supper or a bowl of pasta where I think I should have been having superfree foods really. Like you 2 above I would...

Uh oh WI 42 minutes time ................

Thats my girl!!! You got your motivation back and aiming to maintain over the festive period is a good game plan in my opinion! Remember Christmas is every year so if every year we can maintain over the festive period then we'll never get fat again because we are in control! Good luck x

Come on lilprincessvic - you sound a bit down in the dumps this week :break_diet: If we give in now we could put loads on over Christmas!! I think I am going to have to aim to maintain from now until January as the booze is throwing me off course and you just gotta enjoy the Christmas "spirits"...

I think the hardest part for us all is the lack of willpower we are surrounded by. A lot of my fellow dieters have packed in for Christmas now and will "start again in the New Year". Us lot on here are doing great, whilst they will be regretting it come 2nd January and we are going to be very...

Snap Arctic - Me and you are going to lose that 2.5lbs by next week and hopefully a little 1/2lb extra!! Lets try and get 3lbs off.

Thanks Lady_Amalthea - I didn't realise that I have shown that I am in control - I have shown control haven't I!!! Whoooppeeee

Support on here is flippin fantastic! Thanks everyone.

I havent eaten it yet - its on my desk ................. putting it back ................ stepping away from the tin.................. sitting back at desk ................. thinking of grapefruit in fridge............... no don't fancy that............ planning lunch.............. looking...

Im still here - 10st 7lbs again after 2 1/2lb gain this week but hey ho - onwards and upwards!! I braved the meeting last night and was inspired by my leader! I could very easily have not gone last night and just thought I will start again after Christmas but what's the point in wasting the...

Its all over with one "big purple on" from the Roses tin!

Thanks honeybee. Its reassuring to know that I am not alone!! At times I feel like I actually need psychological help with my eating - seriously!!! :17729:

Hi all I sadly gained 2.5lbs this week. I am gutted but it was totally deserved. I just licked the bowl from the cheesecake I was making for a dinner party on Saturday and it went downhill from there - that little slip turned in to a 3 day binge!! I thought I was in control of this eating lark...

GrannieAnnie - sympathies are with you and wishing you a safe journey - its not good up in Scotland. Take care x

Hi All I really cannot believe it but ............ I have lost .................. 4lbs this week. I have no idea how I did that as I feel no different. Got my Club 10! Celebrating with a glass of mulled wine!!

I don't think 3lb was too bad considering!! Thats the leeway that SW gives you and considering your circumstances you did well to just gain the 3lb! Well done from me!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr .................. got the munchies - trying really hard not to eat the scones! So far after my large but free tea I have munched through a plum, two tomatoes, a huge bunch of grapes and still thinking of the scones - might have to go to bed for an early night!! Its weigh in...

Good luck Laura!

Well done Pomette! Its a 0.5lbs on for me :cry: On the plus side champagne tasting was worth it!! 100% this week!

Ha ha ha ha ha Pomette made me chuckle whilst supposed to be doing over time!!! Just out of interest I wonder how many of us on here are wearing black right now? I am!

Hi - Yeah it would be good for 9.13 for you for Christmas but just think how long it took you to put on the weight and so you gotta give it time to come off!! I have maintained that I only want to lose a 1lb a week and it is that slow and steady approach that has kept me motivated for the last...

ha ha ha ha ha!!! yeaaaaahhhhhhhh - thats brilliant news!!!! Im loving all these people getting to target!! Its giving me a such a buzz I am going to be hyper when it is my turn!! Well done!

That sounds absolutely idyllic! I have often thought I would like to visit Madeira (one of few places OH has not already conquered). I doubt it would be child friendly though so will either have to lock them in the basement for a week (I will leave some bottles of water, some beans and a tin...

Wow weeeeeeee GrannieAnnie - thats brilliant news!!!!!! You will get your meeting for free now won't you? And that means you can go up 3lbs or down 3lbs without paying - enjoy hubbys birthday - you have 3lbs to play with!!!!!!!!!! Well done you!! x

I know and ........... drum roll...... I got a pair of old size 12 jeans on on Monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wooooooooooooooooo (okay so I couldnt actual breathe and the muffin top was not particularly attractive!!!) I have a wardrobe of size 12 clothes now all winking at me and wooooooiing me...

Well Bev if that isn't incentive to be a 100% then I don't know what is!! My other half was also convinced I would quit "another" diet and therefore promised me a white gold bracelet! I've lost 15lbs now so have told him thats £10 per 1lb = £150 bracelet - so far!!!! He has decided I have lost...

Yeah - what Tracey said!!!!!!

Hi All 2 1/2 off for me and my very first stone award!! Taken me 12 weeks to get it but been easy doing it!! Well done everyone on their losses

WOW Jen - 4lbs off!! That is so good. What truly horrid news about your close friend. That is very sad. Hope you have been to the docs re your head aches and migraines. Could it be something you are eating on SW? Too much fizzy pop gives me headaches and I use it to fill up. I am...

Ha ha ha ha - you cheered me up Tracey!! I am with you 1/2lb on this week. Gutted as only need to lose 1/2lb for my first stone! Lets smash it next week!!!

Well flipping done Grannie Annie!!! Feeling a bit jealous. I only needed 1/2 for my first stone!!! But gained 1/2 x

Thats well good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! x

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr +1/2lb grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Jelly-Bean Told you this was the best place for a moan!!! Everyone offering great tips and advice here - we will get there together!! All of us x

Im with you GrannieAnnie - I hate Wednesdays!!!! 1/2 off for me would get my first stone but its not looking likely - though can't check at home as scales no batteries still. I don't "feel" any different so STS would be the best outcome!

Hiya Jen - I have had a really bad week. Just wanted to eat all week. Every day felt like a struggle. Ended up having a binge eat on Monday night - Warburtons bread with cheese on, one with Jam on, one toasted oops another toasted, a naan bread, a chocolate biscuit and then the jelly sweets...

Well done lilprincessvic and funcurls - you have both done brilliantly

Welcome Lynica - we shall see if we can help you!! Very motivational this lot!!

Hello Lorraine! Im sure they will all welcome you with open arms! Strictly speaking I should not be here but I like these guys! They are full of inspiration x

Well done Toni-Marie that is brill!!

Brilliant!!!!! Go for it!! 2lbs off by next week. I only need 1/2lb for my first stone! x

You are welcome and there is your motivation!!! Go for it!! Good luck x

I was eating a Mullerlight FF yogurt the other day and thought that was a bit lumpy but it tasted okay so I ate it ........ and then it dawned ...... it was a MullerRICE!!!! 10 syns or something daft like that it was thats a 1/3 of a bottle of wine to me!! :doh:

Ahhh - sorry to hear about your Dad. I think it you try and eat proper meals you will be less likely to pick at the chocolate. You can only do your best in the circumstances.

Thank you Vitology! Had a 100% day on my birthday too - now that is commitment!! :)

Well done! That is a fab loss. I always remember that even 1/2 lb loss per week is 2 stone in a year! x

I am ecstatic to report 2 1/2lbs off for me!!!! Can't believe it!! Its the grapefruit and the list of superspeed foods in my purse! It is my birthday today so I shall be having cake and vino so with an incredibly 5lbs off in 2 weeks I shall be happy for a sts next week!

Ha ha ha ha - See!!!! Don't weigh at home :) Well done x

Thank you very much! It was another 2.5lbs off at weigh in! Very pleased with myself! :thankyou:

Eeeek - one hour and 42 minutes to go for me! :(

:thankyou: I shall be enjoying my day at work and hoping no-one brings me cake or chocolate as I don't want to offend anyone by not having any! Going to treat the family to a take away so that I don't have to cook tomorrow but I am going to cook myself lots of king prawns with garlic and...

Fingers crossed for you!! :wavey:

hey - that is absolutely fantastic Tracey!! Its my birthday tomorrow. I have been ultra good this week so that I can expect a sts next week. Its weigh in today! Birthday treats tomorrow! :eating:

ha ha ha ha ha - this made my chuckle!!

Thats really good "needwillpower" I think not!!!! Ha ha If I am ill I use it as an excuse to eat more!!!

Weigh in for me too and no battery in home scales so no idea but I feel like I have lost? We will see tonight!

Chocolate for breakfast? *reminds self of empty Nutella jar* Make a list of superspeed foods and plan your meals around that Be good! :p

Should I be salivating for this at breakfast?? Yummy yummy yummy x

Pommette - thanks for the fish recipes - we eat lots of fish in our house so going to be trying these out this week!! x

I think that the reason tomato puree has become free is because of all of the above !!!! We haven't been counting it and still losing!

Don't give it chance to settle and stick to the hips!! 100% this week and it'll go I bet!! Go for it - good luck :)

You are all very welcome!

Welcome Back Mrs - hope that you had a super wedding and a great honeymoon! x

Positive attitude!!! Straight back on it!! Good girl! :wavey:

See you here next week Heather!!! ;)

We will watch this space!! I think it you are prepared to accept you may have slipped up you can graciously take the fall, pick yourself up and get back on that wagon. Fingers crossed for just a 1lb gain for you Conlou x

Go for it - oh and I have been having 1/2 a grapefruit a day this week as I read that somewhere else on here too! I lost 2.5 last week so I don't expect a big loss this week so we will see if my tips have helped myself!!! Weigh in on Wednesday ;)

I think if you were to book the WI between xmas and new year as a planned holiday then you will still get the book I am sure. I have to say that I love the SW way. I hope it doesn't change too much. Look at what has happended to WW. They have lost loads of members!!

Ahhh - start again. I would re-read the books and get back on the SW web site for some inspiration. I wrote a list the other day of SuperSpeed foods and Speed foods to keep in my purse. I often wonder what to make for tea and thought if I had the list in my purse its always to hand whilst...

Hi all - my Consultant also said that we will get a free book if we attend between Christmas and I think 18th January. Good news about the tomato puree - though I have discovered passata instead. Shark - no longer free? Thats a strange one? I wonder why?

Hi Someone advised me a grapefruit a day. Whilst I haven't been having one each day just half and my scales aren't working I have been having 1/2 a day and my clothes are feeling a little looser! Its WI Wednesday so we will see if the grapefruit challenge has worked for me then! Don't...

Oh no!!!!! How frustrating - hurry up and come back :17729:

Big Happy Halloween to everyone - Aren't we all doing well - there are some great losses here. Im looking forward to the Trick and Treaters coming tonight - the house is all done up. I won't be TRICKED in to any of those TREATS today though! Hope we get plenty of them as I really don't want...

Well done!!!! See you there! :flirt2:

I bet that 2lb gain is just your tea! I can vary 6lbs in a day!! (though not so much on SW). I bet you lose that plus a bit more next week - GO BEFORE TEA :8855:

Thanks K.T - Im keep myself to myself so friends/family don't really have much of a clue that Im dieting so I appreciate the support on here x

Look at your own quote Cai - Life is for living not just for slimming - remember - lifestyle change! x

Hello all - just checking in with a 2.5lbs off this week!!! What a good do!!!! I reckon I need to tell my group about you guys. Though I don't post very often I always read what everyone's been up to and it really keeps me motivated so thanks guys xx

Helllloooooooooooooooooooooooo - Am I glad to be here!!!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Well I have only gone and done it!!! Oh yes - 2 1/2lbs off tonight taking me to 10.12 1/2 What a good do. Come on Cai - I want to see you with me in the 10's to 9's xx

Hi Cai - my weight loss has been really slow - you will see from my stats. I have stuck to it 100% for 9 weeks now (today is WI). I have lost weight so many times before and always put it back on. In particularly with Weight Watchers I have lost and regained 2 stone twice and each time the 2...

Ha ha ha ha!!! Naughty MrsScandude. Vicki it sounds like you need some of my hungarian goulash thats bubbling the slow cooker. Comfort food is definitely required! Im off to the pub now to watch the match - drinking the syns today! x

poison ivy I am your doppelganger!! This is me all over!! SW is working for me. It is very slow but I feel healthier, my attitude towards food is certainly healthier and my mood is much lifted! I wish I had done this diet sooner in my life but hey ho - better late than never! x

They are so cute wee doll but I reckon you have got your hands full there!!! Still they will stop you from thinking of food!! x

Im with you on that - I could binge eat all day and then not eat a thing all the next day! Works in the short term but hey I am a 2 stone heavier - AGAIN!! Love the slimming world way!! Its the future. 3 meals a day is the future!! x

Hi Linda Best of luck! Lindsay

Hey, I thought I had read that you had 1/2 off last night? x

That is really good Trango!! Well done x

Wow - everyone is doing soooooo well!!! This Advent Calendar Girls 10 Week Challenge is really working for us all!! Great idea - thanks Hev & Bev! x

I am still here - much as you I like you guys I really want to meet the 10s to 9s now!! Just 1/2lb off for me this week. Talk about slow but better off than on :o

Hi all - just 1/2 off for me this week!! This weight loss is sooooooo slow !!! Better off than on though x

Hello there - just wanted to wish you the best of luck. Losing weight is soooooo much easier when you are happy - take it from someone who knows!! Likewise above what puppy have you got? I have a 4 month old cocker spaniel who makes me sooooo happy!!! I love him to bits! x

Oooo I like grapefruit - i could certainly manage one a day!! I shall give this a whirl WI later for me ..... eek! :o

Its WI day for me - 5.00pm - I am 11st 1.5lbs so I am praying for a 2lb loss this week to get me in the 10's as the last couple of weeks have been a bit feeble!! Im not feeling it though plus OH is guessing 1lb off so he's not seeing it either! Let you know later!:rolleyes:

HelsAngel - Im with you on breakfast. With 2 kids and a puppy to sort before work there is not enough time to think about me. So I generally have yogurt and fruit at my desk - you need to start a new thread re what we can eat for breakfast at our desks!! :)

I can hear the white bread calling from the cupboard - it shouts "Liiinnnnnndddsseeeeee, you know I am here....... come and get a slice of your favourite warburtons and put lashings of butter on it and then come and get another another - toast me ................ go on ........... toast me"...

Only one day until my WI - its a secret weigh in too this week. I have stayed off the scales for an entire week and the display will be covered up so I won't know until she actually reads out the result in front of the entire class! I have been 100% apart from last Friday night when I had a...

OMG this is soooooooo me!!!! I love love love Warburtons with lashings of butter oozing through it ......... oh Im craving it now!! Can't keep hunger at bay today!! Appetite is insatiable today - trying to stick to the superfree but looking forward to spag bol for tea! :)

Yeahhhhhh - Im going to have this tomorrow - yum yum

Hi - I havent joined one of these challenges before but have seen you all doing them and I like the spurring each other along!! Please could I join and put me down for 12lbs? :)

Virtually FF cottage cheese with chives?

Ha ha ha ha ha - thats funny! :8855:

Hi Nayomee Tell me about your pup? I have a 4 month old cocker spaniel named Bruce who has got me off the sofa! Lindsay x

Ive had a recent STS then only 0.5 off and am a bit gutted but then it occurred to me that I am making these wonderful filling meals, chicken casseroles chillis etc and serving them with 1/3 superfree food - but then I have a second or third bowl as well its free food isnt it? What occurred to...

Ill be trying that. Now get back to writing that diary on here!!!! :):):)

Now that would be ace but realistically for me I am averaging 1lb a week so only 10lbs off - still that will take me to 10.5 1/2 so I would be really really pleased with that and would have less than a stone until goal! Maybe the secret WI will work this week and I will lose whopping...

Going out to the Italian - the first time to the Italian on the SW plan - pasta arrabiata no doubt for me?

Apparently we are not allowed to get on our scales at home for an ENTIRE week and then on the night of WI in the display will be covered up and we will not know what we have lost until she reads it out in class!! Pressure or what! Hidden my scales so I am not tempted - though it kinds of defeats...

Hi All, Just 10 more weigh ins until Christmas! Thats a realistic 10lbs off though I have stuck a sticker on the tree at Slimming World as I want 12lbs off - always like to push myself a little bit more!! I am losing 1lb a week on average which is slow and steady but hey if I keep it off I will...

Hi Welcome!! Sending you positivity vibes!! I believe that "chipping away" at it is the best way too! I have lost weight easily in the past by not eating but this time I want it to stay off. I only want to lose a pound a week which will mean another 11lbs off by Christmas! So far so good! Good...

Jumped on the scales this morning and it said 11.0 then 10.13 then back to 11.0 so I am soooooooo nearly there!!!!

Something budget with chicken which I got out of the freezer this morning - pastary dish?? probably

There is also Cat o Nine Tales (book of 9 short stories). Apparently each story is based around events/character that he met when he was in prison! x

Jumped on the scales this morning and it said 11.0 then 10.13 then back to 11.0 so I am soooooooo nearly there!!!!!

Thanks Lisa - you always seem to bail me out!! x

Hi Blondee - wheres the next page? Please tell me what the Riso Gallo mushroom jobby was? Sounds yummy! x :)

Well I have just discovered that I like Jeffrey Archer!! So random. His style or writing seems to sit well with me! Currently reading Sons of Fortune. Who would have thought that I would like my dads books!!

Pray tell? Diet coke chicken? :o

quorn shepherds pie and mushy peas!

Sausage, mash and superspeed mushy peas!! STS at WI so on it now for a 2lbs off next week! *note to self - no vino!

Superspeeding this week so Cod, SW chips and mushy peas! How can that be a superspeed tea - diets are supposed to be boring and tasteless. SW I love you!

Think thin!! Imagine yourself wearing 2 sizes less and your brain will figure out a way to get there! Positive thoughts only :)

SNAP!

I have to say that I stick to the plan 100% every week. I don't seem to feel the need to have flexi syns. My willpower must be quite strong at the moment!! Another 2 1/2 off this week making a total of 7 1/2 in 5 weeks. Slow but steady! Good luck Baby-belle, hope that you get back on track x

Thank you. I'm very proud of myself!

2 1/2 off for me that means I am 11st 2! Whooppeee The challenge from our leader this evening is to eat 5 Superfree foods per day - I am going for it! Sooooo motivated tonight - Slimming World Diet - I love you!!!!!!!!!!!!

2 1/2 off tonight at WI Prawn and smoked salmon risotto with (hidden) spinach and peas (my kids don't do veg!) Alpen light bar with a cup of tea for dessert in bed watching Spooks on BBC iPlayer! Ps. Did I mention two and a HALF pounds off at WI!! Woooooooooooooooooooo

Seafood risotto again! Kids love it so its become a once a week favourite. Going to get some BBQ stuff in though for tomorrow night! Loving the sunshine :)

Why? :) Any good?

Frozen Mullerlight strawberry! Its the future!! Can't wait to try a frozen coconut one! Might add a little bit of sweetener to the strawberry one next time for a yummy dessert!

Low fat sweet thai chilli supernoodles, lettuce, peppers, tomato and balsamic vinegar followed by an Alpen Light Bar (1/2 HExB - 2nd one for supper!)

They aren't selling the "bounty" ones in my Asda any more. In fact the varieties have reduced quite a bit!! Think there must be a lot of people in my neck of the woods on SW!!! Coconut mullerlight are yum yum *note to self - try freezing!!

gymnasium

Homemade cottage pie - I just use extra lean minced beef and stick a egg in the mash to make it creamy instead of butter. Kids love it! x

Hi Baby-Belle Do you have a food diary? Someone on here might be able to help you if there is something you are not synning or something like that? Im a bit new to help but someone might be able too advise you x

Fat free natural yogurt with a teaspoon of sweetener with red grapes and kiwi - layered it all up in a glass and the girls in the office were very jealous!!

Wow - 6 kids! They will keep you fit. Super Mum! x

hi Cara - You have done fab with your weight loss and its not looking like you are going to have to wait until 19th April next year to reach goal! Just wanted to say well done and "caramumofmany" I wonder how many? :)

That's brilliant!! Well done!

How amazing is it that we can have unlimited risotto!! Yum yum. Seafood is my fave!

Jacket potato with crab and salad - it was very boring! Roll on tea time.

Hi Babycham12 I am finding the weight loss very slow on EE. I have previously lost 2 stone, twice, on Weight Watchers (with masses of weight loss in the first few weeks). I keep it off for a couple of years and then it goes back on. This is my first time on SW and I like SW because I am...

Hi Baby-Belle Are you attending the meetings? If so what does she say about the sts for such a long time? x

A huge jacket potato with virtually fat free cottage cheese with chives, large mixed salad with tomatoes and onions! I am absolutely stuffed!

Thanks Trango - Ive lost 2 stone 3 times in 10 years so I know that I can get the weight off. Im just not going to put it all back on again this time. I needed to re-educate my eating habits! Weight Watchers has always worked for me but what's the point if you put it all back on again - you...

I am printing that off!! It sounds delicious!! ;)

I agree about the healthy living style. I am frustrated at my slow weight loss but I really dont want a regain. In the years I have lost 6 stone, (which is loads but its actually 2 stones at 3 dieting attempts) so I know I can do it. This time I need to lose that 2 stone again and keep it off...

Yippeee - another 1lb off for me! Only 5lb lost so far in 4 weeks but may mean 20lbs lost by Christmas! x

What amazing photos Heather! Its a new you. I bet you love shopping now and socialising by the looks of it!! Can't wait to get that feeling back!

What a fab quote and really is so true! Weigh in today for me! Set a mini-target last week of 3lbs off and stuck to 100% plus done some walking. Im not feeling a 3lb loss though I don't think!! We will see. The anxiety has set in 4 hours and 6 minutes until WI!

Wine with your meal! :8855:

Hi Guys I have just coincidentally been reading about this on the SW website and apparently it is just days away from being launched! I will keep an eye out and post back when I get it. What a brilliant idea! It'll make things dead easy in Asda!

:D Thats brilliant - well done! :)

That was a very motivational catch up!! :) I can't wait to see 10st 13.9 on my scales!! I set a mini target last week of 3lbs off at class. My scales are showing a STS this morning based on last Wednesdays morning WI. :( I WI at SW at 5pm usually. I have done lots and lots of walking and been...

Good luck - we don't need to "see if we can do it" - we already know that we can!!!! :8855:

Thank you :) Many thanks :)

Hi all - wondered if I can join? Its been a good long while since I have seen a 10 on the scales and really looking forward to that! Im on a mini target set by my leader of 3lbs this week which will get me my first 1/2 stone. Its high I know but its because the puppy was able to start going...

My worst habit was/is nibbling whilst cooking. I love to cook but then when I open the fridge I break off a little bit of cheese. :) When I open the cupboard I eat the crust off the Warburtons white loaf with butter thickly spread on :):) and then ..... I have another slice because it would...

Recipe please! :)

What a nice birthday present! :)

I was having a bad day yesterday and I always turn to food for comfort. I really fancied stodge, chocolate, cake - anything bad! I put something along those lines on another thread and I got tonnes of ideas back. I decided to indulge my need for stodge but SW way - I cooked up a load of...

Thats a really good suggestion - BIG thumbs up from me!! ;)

Wow that really is super organised - I am very impressed!! We will be having the good old traditional prawn cocktail/turkey/christmas pud - The meal is easy its the boxes of Roses and Celebrations and the nuts you crack yourself and then the mince pies with cream oh how am i going to resist...

O oh going to a friends for tea!

That sounds good potato and cauliflower mashed together with the quark cheese! Infact I might just mash loads of veggies together in to a huge plateful and eat until I am full - safe in the knowledge Im not overdoing it! Thanks for the words of encouragement Lisa! :o

Thanks I think Im going to try! x

HEXB New Covent Garden Tomato and Basil Soup with a few fresh tomatoes thrown in and a plum x

Hmmmmm - what is quark like stirred through pasta! I really need some stodge. Im feeling like I need to have a proper pig out with Warburtons white bread and thick butter and jam and scones mmmmmmm with jam and cream ............................ missing those :-(

worm Eeeeeewwwwwwww:8855:

Egg & chips, with mushrooms and grilled tomato - not had this in years!! A quick easy tea!

hi - just wondered how you have gone on over the last 3 weeks? Have you lost more? Lindsay

Seafood Risotto with a large side salad! Yum yum - firm family favourite too - providing we have some electricity with all this wind!!

That looks like a brilliant idea. I have a microwave at work that I can use for my lunches and always feel more satisfied when I have a hot lunch. Im going to get one and give it a whirl! Thanks for that! x

Quorn cumberland sausages (1 syn) beans, "fried" egg, beans, mushrooms - it is Sunday after all - yum yum x

I think some of my acquaintances quite like me being larger than them - less competition! :D Lx

Roast chicken, roast potatoes (SW way), carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, petit pois and the family around the table! I love Sundays

Good luck!! Keep us informed of your progress!

Thank you very much - I have done it (see below)!! Love the idea of my little doggy getting past another tree! Hee hee! Simple things please simple minds!! x

PS. WickedWitch74 - how do you add a tracker to your signature? I have created one but don't know how to get it on here. Thanks

I think that this is me too!! Lost 3 1/2 pound week one and then gained 1 1/2 week two but I haven't given up yet and am finding this minimins really helpful and motivating! Good luck x

Thanks Debridger. Will try and have a HexB more often as satiety may well be more satisfied too! Thanks for the advice on the wine. I like very dry wine which I imagine will count as 24 so having 72 syns per week on wine!! Roll on home time ..............

Mullerlight coconuts are extra yummy!!! Like a Bounty! On offer at Asda only 30p!! x

New to this but I am having a 2-egg omlette with mushrooms and tomatoes, onion and an apple - yum! Just nipping home to make it during my lunch break and play with puppy! x

Fruity Ammunition!! Great saying - Im gonna reload in preparation for the weekend! Also, love the "Have that Fat Cells!" Inspirational quotations I shall be stealing! Many thanks Lindsay

Great thread - though only on week 2 I am eating so much and enjoying my food I do not feel like I need a day off. I have previously been a binge eater so this is good. Speaking of the binge eating I am a very greedy person. Week one I lost 3 1/2, week 2 I gained 1 1/2. I am gutted. I can...

Smoked Salmon and Prawn risotto with peas and spinach and a side salad and no doubt 2 glasses of wine (6syns) as it is Friday! (Just got to not finish the bottle!!!)

That sounds really good! Mmmmmmmmmmmmm
