Thanks for the replies:D i guess I will probably be stuck with it - at least I should be able to fold it up neatly and tuck it in my pants ;) Oh and I know what you mean about the pubic area, but thankfully mine seems to be shrinking as I lose weight. I wonder if I ever manage to get pregnant...

Good luck with the last few pounds!

Wi at 5.30 for me :-/

Oooooooohhhhhhh I might have to have a trip there! Thank you! Hopefully their sizes will fit as my tummy is a horrible shape after having a section with my son 5 yrs ago! *excited now* I will report back!

It's 1.5 syns for the whole sachet! So tuck in and enjoy :-)

1. I hate looking at myself in pictures 2. I want to wear nice underwear 3. I want t be able to clothes shop in primark 4. I want to be fitter and exercise more And most importantly..... 5. I have PCOS, and have been ttc for 18 months, and now I am being referred to the fertility clinic and I...

Aldi's fruit and veg offers are great, and also big pots of free soup with loads of superfree in it can be portioned and frozen for later, and not too expensive.

Can't wait to get the new magazine tonight! It's my incentive for going to wi when I don't think I've lost!

I've found the holidays really hard too. I took my son out of nursery as he starts school in September, so it seemed crazy that I was off and he still went to nursery, but it's hard to stick to plan and not graze on all the nice things he has!!! i have lost but not much, and have weigh in...

I had to buy some new trousers for work as mine were like clown trousers, but I don't want to spend huge amounts on clothes that will *hooefully* be too big for me in a couple of months. I can't wait until I can shop in primark!!!! I will buy a few things to wear at each size I guess as I go...

Nobody that I work with mentioned the fact the I suddenly started eating fruit and salads instead of crisps and toast, until I came in bursting about my weight loss. Now they all ask me what I am cooking for dinner, how much I have lost etc and are really lovely and supportive! i think they were...

I've just joined the gym in the town where I live, although its still being built and should open at the end of September, but I was chatting to one of the fitness instructors when I signed up, and he said that he sees it all the time that people gain when they start exercising, as others have...

I have my wi tonight, had a bad day Tuesday (involving a visit to McDonald's!) so I may well gain but going to buy the new magazine which I get quite excited about :) this is probably the most determined I have ever been to lose weight, before I have only managed a week or two of any diet, so SW...

I had a bad day in Tuesday, got wi tonight and if I have gained I won't be surprised as I feel bloated. If I have lostiwill be delighted! i will still go to group though as I think it's important to keep on track. sometimes life gets in the way, we are only human x

Wow that is amazing! Well done!!!!

Just wanted to wish you luck. i have PCOS too, so I know how hard it makes it to shift weight. If I feel a binge coming on, I try to do something else to avoid it, like exercise (my wii fit is a lifesaver as I have an almost 5yr old too!), or take my son out for a walk, or even have a bath.

Yep, SW is much more my kind of thing! I like food too much ;-)

Not really sure if anyone will be able to answer, or want to share, but I have got about another 3.5 stones to lose, I have lost almost 2 stones. I have quite a big "overhang" which in part is due to a c-section 5 years ago. when I get rid of the weight, is the overhang still going to be there...

I have massively irregular periods so I never know if it's * or not, but once it comes I see a gain just before, which can be a big gain, or just a half pound! Annoying though!!

Wish they had a feature in the app where you could scan barcodes, as I tend to use it when I see something I like when I am shopping! mfp has one so surely it can't be that hard?

I weigh myself all the time. I do it at different times of day, before and after meals, in different clothes, but my scales bear no resemblance to what the SW scales tell me! Ive not been very good this summer Hols, having 6 weeks off isn't good for dieting!!!

Good luck! Syn free chips keep me on the safe and narrow! i tried a VLCD and it was horrific! SW all the way for me :-)

Good luck in your first week. The rocky road hifi bars are my favourite!!!

I have to be this focused to stay on track. I have to be thinking about what I will eat/ buy/ cook, or I get tempted by other non-SW foods. And thinking about clothes and being slimmer helps me to steer my choices towards the healthier options. Lea, so sorry to hear what has happened to you and...

My GP tells me that weight is no barrier to having Clomid, but that it does work better if your bmi is under 30 (mine isn't!), so maybe they want to look at giving you Clomid?

I am rejoining tomorrow but I can't access the syn calculator until then. can anyone tell me how many syns there are in Mattesons smoked sausage? i am craving one like mad, and have not had any syns yet today! Thanks :-)

I also have PCOS and am ttc number 2. I am waiting for a fertility referral, have been on metformin for 8 or 9 years. I have lost just over 2 stones with slimming world since may, but I need to lost another 3.5 to get my bmi under 25. am hoping I get it under 30 by the time my referral comes...

I have maybe 3 periods a year. I have just lost 2 stones, have another 3.5 to lose to get to target. I had a period 3 weeks ago, so I am waiting with bated breath to see if I get another as we are ttc and waiting for fertility referral!

Well, I posted this about two weeks ago, and not had a chance to get on since. I lost 4.5lbs in ,y second weigh in as well, and 5lbs last week. Weigh in again tomorrow but I have had a terrible week, as I have been with family over the BH so just eaten so badly. Had a tesco shop on my way...

I am not keen on veg, but I put it in stuff so it's disguised :) I think I'm really 4 yrs old instead of nearly 30!

I just had one! It was awesome! Tried a banana and custard one as well just to see, and it was also very nice indeed! :)

Fry one white onion in fry light. Add one butternut squash chopped into cubes, and fry for one or two minutes. Add four potatoes, peeled and cubed, and 1.5 litres of chicken or vegetable stock. Add two - three teaspoons of paprika. Simmer for 40 mins with the lid on. When the vegetables are...

Wow this sounds lovely! Definitely putting this on my list!

I love these,got them in my local tesco the other day! Might have to stick one in the freezer to try later on once my small child has gone to bed (so I don't have to share!). They are well worth half a syn. As they are so creamy! The morello cherry one is lovely too!

What does it taste like? It's one of those things I look at but am too suspicious of it to buy it!

This sounds delicious! I love KFC and I am missing it, even though I only had it every two or three months!! It's a forbidden fruit! :)

Hi everyone! I am a serial dieter, and have been since my late teens. I put on weight when I went to uni, and then shortly after was diagnosed as PCOS at the age of 19. I have lost weight on and off on various diets over the years, but have always struggled with the willpower side! I am...

I'm in the 14s at the moment, got at least 4 stones to lose, seems like a long old way!!!

Hi all, I'm new! I lost 4.5lbs this Thursday. I was really pleased! I am hoping for at least 1lb this week!

Thanks! This weekend has been a disaster, but hey ho, will see what happens on Tuesday when I face the scales. This VLCD is not for me though, going to have to swap to just eating healthy as the headaches are killing me! :-)

Oooooooh just had a dietimeal chilli and it was SO lovely! I added some chilli and cumin powder but seriously, it was lush! I feel much more confident now I have had at least one thing I like! Will try the other things tomorrow! :-)

Good luck! Hope it is going well so far!

Yay, I survived the day at work even though a couple of the other teachers went to KFC at lunch, and I love KFC! And my new packs have arrived, so I am looking forward to one of those after my son's bed time- sat having a nice coffee and feeling so pleased I have made it this far lol, pathetic...

Well I survived the night without giving in! Had a vanilla shake this morning - definitely the most palatable so far! At least they encourage you to drink lots of water lol :-) Luckily my son has lunch and dinner at nursery in the week and I avoid the canteen at school so I haven't been faced...

I looked at CD but it is really difficult for me as my hubby is in the army and he is away just now so I have nobody to look after my son while I go along to the meeting :-/ I will just keep trying different brands I guess until I find one I like or cave in. Made myself eat another soup...

The tomato soup was the worst thing I have ever eaten, the bars are salty so a bit odd and an effort to eat! I have so far had the banana and strawberry shakes and didn't like either, but yet to try the choc and vanilla - that will be tomorrow's special treat! I had the Thai chicken soup...

Thank you for a helpful introduction!

Oooops, first fail already! I only just noticed this part of the forum, so I thought I would say hello, seeing as I have already been asking for motivation! I a, 29, mummy to a 3 yr old (4 next month!), wife to a soldier, and science teacher in an upper school. Life is a bit mad for me...

Hi, I am on day 2 of a VLCD and finding it VERY hard - having terrible cravings! I was diagnosed with PCOS 10 years ago, and have tried to lose weight the whole time. I did lose a lot on SW a few years ago, but put it all back on :-( I need some kind of fast results to get demotivated so...

Hi everyone, I am on day 2 of a VLCD. I bought a week of exante shakes, soups and bars, and I have had to force myself to eat every one of them as I really dislike the taste! I have bought a different brand (Yourdietbuddies???) as I don't know if I can take the taste of these for much...
