Well dome safia another great loss! Welcome moorcroft miss. I too am a home dieter with no group but i am nearly at 6 stone lost since end of sept last year, mainly due to the great help and support on this site! Good luck everyone with your week ahead!

It took me forever to get out of the 15's so god knows how long i'll be in this group! Keep plodding and we'll all get to the next group sooner or later!

Welcome QueenOmi, don't be nervous we don't bite! The whole site is great and very supportive! Good luck with your journey ahead!

You can keep motivated and reap the rewards next week! Good luck for the week ahead!x

Safia, try to stay strong. I know how upsetting it is when you have an undeserved gain, had a few along the way so far, but it usually evens itself out! Im finding red and green days are best for my loss at the moment! Chin up and if you can go to group and perhaps your group leader can help you...

Thank you!

Thank you, just hope i can keep it going

Thanks Safia, its been a struggle but made it at last, just got to keep the momentum going!

You sound like i was a few weeks ago and i had two crap weeks! Try to be strong, you know you can. Unlike me who put on 10lb in two weeks but got back on the wagon last week and managed to loose 9lb this week! Don't deprive yourself but don't go off the rails like i did! Good luck with WI tomorrox!

Well weigh in this morning was great 9.5lbs off! Going to aim for another 100% this week and give myself 3 weeks to the 14's, i'm 15st 4lb at the moment. Onwards and downwards!

Well i pulled myself together and have been 100% all week and have done some exercise! All the hard work has paid off and ive lost 9.5lbs yay, back on track!

Hi, just noticed this thread and thought i'd offer some encouragement! I started SW at home at the end of September, i was 20st 7lb and lasp week i was 15st 5lb at monday weigh in! If i can dn it so can you. I have 3st to go, its more of a plod but however long it takes i will get there and so...

Just popped in to see how your doing Safia and it seems your doing great, well done! Well i'm still not even close to dropping down as had an awful two weeks and gained a massive 10lb! But i've knuckled down and been 100% this week so hoping on monday to being a lot closer to joining you!

i'd love to join please. Have lost 5 and a half stone since the end of september. Have another 2 and a half to go but struggling to stay on track at the moment. Could someone be kind enough to add me as have no computer access at the moment and can't cut and paste on my phone! Thank you and good...

Well i have struggled to get back on track after trip to sons graduation and ended up with a 10lb gain when i weighed on monday, yes 10lb and thoroughly ashamed. But that weigh in finally kicked me up the arse i needed and i have been 100% all week so far so hoping for a big loss on monday. Also...

Well done over the last few weeks, you've been doing great!

I'm here! Got a bit down having gained half a stone when i went to sons graduation and then couldn't seem to get back on track! Sorted now though i think as ive been 100% for four days now! Looking for a good loss as gained 10lb in total, giving myself 3 weeks to get it off!

Welcome Paul8 and good luck with your journey ahead!

Well done all those who have lost and great b4 and after piccies! I need to knuckle down as gained 6lb while on hols this week but not bothered just need to get back to it!

Well dome Safia, see you in a few months!

Keeping everything crossed for you Safia, you'll do it!x

Keeping everything crossed for you, you can do it!x

Well done! I've been really naughty and off plan for the 3 days ive been away at son's graduation but not going to worry about it. I'll get back on plan tomorrow and see what mondays weigh in brings and work on getting it off again, it was worth it!

been away for 3 days to son's graduation and been totally way off plan but have decided i don't care and will deal with whatever i've put on as have had a great time! Will be back on plan tomorrow and see what monday's weigh in brings!

another 1lb off, thats 15st 3.5lb a few more weeks until the 14's i think!

Well hoping for a little loss tomorrow, fingers crossed!

I know that feeling Emmey, i seem to have been up and down between 15st 2lb and 15st 5lb for weeks now, just can't seem to break into the 14's and am struggling a bit to stick with it! Keeping my fingers crossed for you for wednesday!

Well done on being strong and sticking with it!

Managed to loose another 2lb this week but i just seem to have been yo-yoing in the 15's for ever! Would like to think i could be in the 14's in a couple of weeks but im off to Bangor for sons graduation so it will be two nights of pub teas and possibly lbs on not off! Just want to get in the...

good luck Natalie. Just had the half a syn red day chilli, yummy!

Well done, another 1.5 in the right direction! Onwards and downwards!x

2lb off for me,really chuffed!

Really pleased with 2lb off as not been an easy week for being good, especially with son's yummy birthday cake hanging around still! Now to knuckle down to a 100% week if i can!

Hope i can mirror you WI lilli8. Its weigh in tomorrow for me after sons 21st birthday celebrations! I've tried to be good the rest of the week so hoping not to have done too much damage and possibly even have a STS or small loss!

Well i think i would probably would be at about 15st 2 on monday if it wasn't for the fact its my sons 21st bday tomorrow and were out for an all you can eat meal and of course there will be cake. I'm going to try to avoid being too naughty but we'll see! Just hoping not to have a big gain and...

Well done Charl, down you go! Hope to join you down there soon!

Wow safia, thats great, the 14's for you next week I think!

Stay positive you can do it, we can get there despite a few hiccups on the way! Chin up and keep going strong for the week ahead!x

I'd be happy with a STS this week Rachel as we are going to an all you can eat around the world buffet resteraunt for sons 21st so not sure how much will power i can muster!

Welcome to all the nebies and hey some great losses, well done all of you! Good luck all of you for the week ahead and fingers crossed for all those hoping to join the 14's this week. Hoping to get there myself in a couple of weeks, although off to an all you can eat around the world resteraunt...

I'm yo-yoing too Rachel, between 15st 7lb and 15st 2lb! Have son 21st birthday party this saturday so thats another week lost!

1lb off this week, not great but better than a gain!

1lb off for me this week, not great but better than I was expecting!

Really pleased with my WI this morning as despite a busy week socially I managed to loose 1lb! As for when people go down a dress size, it really seems to vary a lot from person to person! I've lost 5.5stone and gone from a size 24 to a 16/18 but there doesn't seem any pattern to how much weight...

Well with a bit of luck i'll get a STS again this week! Why did i have to have wedding annivesary(last week) number 3 sons birthday(this week) number 2 sons birthday (next week) there just isn't any hope for a dieter, especially as next weeks is a 21st and we are off to an all you can eat...

i still have 3 stone to go so going to keep plodding along! Well done on your STS, now its back to shedding the pounds for both of us!

Good luck with tonights weigh in. It seems we have got into a similar frame of mind and also both feel the need to get back on track a bit more!

Welcome to all the newbies and a big well done and goodbye to pigler on moving to the 14's!! Well I'm really trying this week as had two not so good weeks. I've been 100% since monday mornings weigh in and today I've done a 6 mile walk at quite a pace!! Just need to keep it up and try and be...

STS this week but ok with that as wasn't 100% due to wedding anniversary celebrations! Feeling positive as i feel in control of my celebration eating!

STS for me this week but i'm fine with that as not been 100% due to wedding anniversary celebrations! Need to knuckle down now though as with ups and downs this month have only lost 1lb but thats ok as nearly 5.5st lost since end of september just need to get back to 100% to shift the other...

STS which is fine as i know ive not been 100% due to family celebrations bv nice to know i can enjoy the fun and still stay in control!

STS which is fine as i know ive not been 100% due to family celebrations bv nice to know i can enjoy the fun and still stay in control!

I'll be here with you charl as looking at a STS too, but entirely my own fault as had a meal for wedding ann and then couldn't resist sweeties at the cinema. But im not gonna stress about as really enjoyed it! Got son's 21st coming up as the mnext hiccup but will deal with that next week. So...

Feeling positive still and being good! Feel like i can get last weeks awful gain and a bit more off before son's graduation! Out for a meal tonight so need to choose wisely, but feeling in control!

You'll find them on this site but if you can't get back to me and i'll put them on this thread for you.

Thanks Emmey, must say i couldn't have done it without all you lovely ladies and gents on this site giving advice and great support!

Hi Sammy and welcome. I too am doing SW from home. I've lost just over 5 stone since september but have been yoyoing in the 15's forever! Good luck with your journey. Babybelle burgers are good on a red day and curry in a hurry on a green!

Thanks ladies. I'm not going to let it get me down, i'm being good although celebrating wedding anniversary on saturday but will try to choose well. 5 stone in 9 months is something im proud of and if it takes a few months longer to shift the other 3 stone then hey ho so be it. As long as i...

Thanks Hyjanea. I am far more chilled than i used to be and if it takes a few weeks then so be it! I figure having lost over 5 stone as long as i loose each month i won't let the odd hiccup let me down!

Well done purpled! I gained 5.75 at totm which wasn't deserved so i'm trying to loose it again this week. Just trying to keep positive and stay on track!

Wow well done Emmey, you've done really well! Onwards and downwards! Good luck with the coming week!

Well done Sarah!

Sorry Coljack i just realised you asked me a question before you posted the update, but no it was just me moaning! I weigh on a monday officially and have posted my huge gain after the update.

Was in facj a 5.75lb gain, really upset about it!

Well disaster for me gained 5.75lb and totally undeserved as been good, but its that cursed time of the month! I wanted to cry at first but have decided to keep going and hope that its just water retention and i can get it off again quite quickly! Oh well what else can I do!

Well done Pigler on your loss, keep up the good work!!!

Thanks for the support ladies! Well I've been good so far today and have only had 2 syns so far today so plenty for any munchy attacks this evening. Sorry if I was a misery guts earlier, trying to get my act back together!!!

Not sure whether to scream or cry as have gained 5.75lb and definately not deserved! Going to have lots of veg, fruit and salad, as few carbs as possible and up the excercise. Definately not happy but hoping the fact its that time of the month thats the cause! :-(

Thanks for dropping in on my diary with some encouraging words Emmey it's much appreciated and needed at the moment!

Thanks Emmey, i know i shouldn't peek but can't stop myself! Really pee'd off that im gonna gain but have managed not to binge at present so going to shift it next week. Just hoping it won't be too big a gain. Have made lots of speedy soup for lunches and am determined to get in the 14's by...

Just had a sneaky weigh and wish i hadn't, so fed up as looking at a 5lb gain due to time of the month! Really struggling not to binge as been good and WAS only 1.75lb from next stone zone, now its going to take weeks! :-(

Roast dinner is cooking so going to enjoy that and then syn free roulade and hope that will cheer me up and stop me binging! Just hoping whatever i gain i can loose next week! Still got 2.5 to 3 stone to loose and just want to get on with it!

Its actually getting me down today, apart from last monday when i had 22 syns but i had only 10 syns tue,wed, and thur and yet i could be looking at 5 lb gain! Makes me wish i'd had a mega binge it would have been worth the gain! Really fighting a binge at the moment or a mega cry!

Hi Beki and welcome. I too can't wait to be in the 14's, was hoping it would be at weigh in tomorrow but due to time of month i seem to be looking at a 4.5lb gain(had a sneaky weigh this morning!)

Really feeling bloated today due to time of month. Sneaky peak on scales shows 5lb gain, hoping its a blip as not been naughty enough for that! Feeling really fed up!

Really struggling with a sugar craving due to time of month. I'm resigning myself to a gain this week, will be disappointed as only 2lb to next group and 5.5 stone lost, but will have to live with it and knuckle down to a loss next week. Oh well will have to see what mondays WI brings? :-(

Well done Emmey for the great self control! Glad you had a good time!

Charl, can i ask why you calorie count as well as doing SW? Don't be disheartened, follow the SW plan and stick with 5 to 10 syns a day and it will shift! Well done Lilli and welcome!

Oh i hope so!

Hey Emmey how did weigh in go this week?

I sooo want to join you guys in this group. I only need to loose 2lb to drop down but it just doesn't want to move and i fear a gain on monday. Well its been nice to drop in for a sneaky peek and hope to see you all very soon!

Congratulations to you and your fiance.

Welcome Natalie, i'm currently struggling to be good as i need to loose 2lb to get into the next stone zones. I seem to have been in this group forever! Good luck with the week ahead.

You've got to chill and enjoy yourself sometimes, then just get back to it and shift any gain after the hols. Hope you have a great holiday!

Much better day today. Breakfast:- Egg and mushrooms on toast. Lunch:-chicken and couscous(2) and strawberries and 4 tesco mini meringue(4) Tea:-turkey, bacon and thyme with veg. Supper:- Roulade and strawberries(2) Total 8syns

How was WI Lyndzi? Managed to be much better with syns today, 9used instead of yesterdays naughty 22!

Fingers crossed with your WI Lindzi.

Been good so far today, only 2 syns used for couscous for lunch.

Thank you. Yeah helps me know just how much over my syns i went with yesterdays disaster day!

Thanks ladies, have got up in a more positive mood! I'm day off so need to avoid picking. Have my meals planned and have plenty of fruit at hand. Going to try and have only 5 syns, that way if i have a couple extra then i'll still be able to keep it under 10. I weigh on a monday morning so...

oh well thats 22 syns then!! Going to try and stick to 5 or 6 syns for the rest of the week. Trouble is its * week so I just want sweet things and rubbish. I think mentally I go to pot because I often put on 1 or 2 lb this week even when good, although I also sometimes loose a little so just...

Wishing you luck with your weigh in tomorrow and hoping your all better now!!

Well today has not been good, need to have really low syns the rest of the week to try and pull it back. Todays menu:- Breakfast- Egg, beans and bacon on toast. Lunch-4 ryvita, 3 laughing cow lite and 2 syn roulade. Tea- 1/2 syn chilli and rice Snacks-( far too many and way over syns!!!)-...

Well as I say today not good, need to have really low syns the rest of the week to try and pull it back. Todays menu:- Breakfast- Egg, beans and bacon on toast. Lunch-4 ryvita, 3 laughing cow lite and 2 syn roulade. Tea- 1/2 syn chilli and rice Snacks-( far too many and way over syns!!!)- Small...

Have had a bad diet day and now really pee'd off with myself. * week and just want to eat everything in sight!

Help, couldn't resist a slice of black pudding today at work but really regret it now! Can anyone tell me how many syns it possibly would be for an inch slice as not managed to find it in the syn directory!

Its hard when there is something in the house for others that you find hard to resist, especially during * week! Be strong ladies!

Well done pigler and beth, we're all heading in the right direction! Mass pat on the back for us all and good luck to everyone for the week ahead!

Keep plodding, thats all i do, we'll all get there in the end!

You'll do it on friday for sure!

Todays Menu: Breakfast- Allbran and grapes. Lunch- pasta, baked beans and quorn sausage. Tea-Curry in a hurry and rice. 2 alpan bars as 2nd hexb. Snacks grapes, banana, curly wirly(5syns) and 2 syn roulade and strawberries later for supper. Total syns 7.

How much have you got to go to the 14's Charl? Thanks Bridesmaid, must admit feeling quite chuffed!

Really pleased with 2.75 lb off. Need 2lb off to be in the 14's. I aim for that by end of june!

Really pleased with 2.75lb off this week, onwards dnd downwards! Good luck everyone with the week ahead!

Really pleased with a loss of 2.751bs! That leaves me on target to be in the 14's by the end of the month. Now 15st 1.75lb!

Keeping fingers crossed for a small loss tomorrow!

I started SW last sept and have lost 5st 3lb so far, i don't go to a group but find this forum great! I try to think of it as a change of eating habit that needs to stick for life rather than a diet! Its never easy and you have to expect a few ups and downs but with all the support on here you...

Well you go this week, see if they are friendly and save me a seat and i'll join you in a week or two! :-)

Yeah feeling great. Gone from size 24 to size 16/18. Been married 26 years this month and was size 20 then so really chuffed! Its hard when you feel like your messing about, i know cause i seem to have been in the 15's forever. But we CAN do this and we will!

I'm trying hard to get there by the end of the month bridesmaid, that will be 5.5 stone gone and 2.5 to go!

It always seems one day off plan, especially with a few days to WI, doesn't have a bad effect so if your good til friday you'll do fine!

Fresh lemon juice is great for bloatedness.

Thanks bridesmaid, it wasn't easy at breakfast but i wasn't sure what was fried and whdat was grilled so thought beans on toast was the best bet! Also i soooo want to get into the 14's so not keen to put on if possible!

I have been 100% rest of the week and kept to 10 or less syns. Weigh in tomorrow morning. How are you doing?

well i did quite well until the vanilla cheesecake which i couldn't resist! Chose a low fat lowish calorie tea of chargrilled chicken and chilli noodles at weatherspoons but when the other 2 had chocolate and custard i couldn't resist the cheesecake! I was better at the motorway services, they...

Been to Bangor to pick up middle son so not been 100% but not been too bad!

Well done tuppy, hope to join you in a couple of weeks!

I'm not in a class, never have been. I just join challenges on here and buddy up to go from stone zone to stone zone to keep me motivated and it works well, i've lost just over 5 stone since end of sept! Give it a go you can always go back!

Well today didn't really go to plan as we had a big Jubilee party at the care home I run! They had such a great time that it was worth being a little naughty. I did take a chicken salad in for lunch but that is awaiting me in the fridge tomorrow!! Breakfast: 42g of all bran with grapes and...

Fingers crossed for you Lyndzi!

Stick with Juejon, it will move soon im sure! Welcome Spookess, great loss!

Welcome Shred, im trying to be more 100% than have been as been in this group for what seems like forever and much as everyone is lovely i want to move on!

Hi Cai, its hard once you go off track isn't it! Thought the diary would enable me to look back at what weeks have worked and what hasn't. I can't really afford to go to group as supporting my two younger sons through uni (the eldest and hubby have been dieting with me). I hope to loose another...

Are you feeling any better? Also are you still doing the 30 day shred, i keep thinking I'll give it a go but think it may kill me!!!

Just popped back to say I've started a diary as haven't been too focused of late. Drop in some time and share some words of wisdom. http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-weight-loss-diary/279247-food-diary-get-me-back-track.html

I have started a food diary to try and keep myself motivated. If anyone fancies a peak from time to time or to offer some advice the link is http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-weight-loss-diary/279247-food-diary-get-me-back-track.html

Todays menu has been Breakfast: Bacon eggs, beans, mushrooms and toast (yeas again but had an extra day off!) After my walk, a banana. Lunch: Prawn salad. Mid afternoon 2 miringu nests, strawbwrries, raspberries and a squirt of cream (6 syns) Tea BBQ quorn casserole, cauliflower, broccoli and...

Well done Tuppy, great loss and exciting to be on the edge of moving down a group!

Yeah im feeling positive at the moment. The 15's have been a slow plod but have got to 15 4.5 so hope to be out of here about the same time as you. I have signed up for the local hospice sponsered walk so have just got back from a 5.88 mile walk to practice, a few more of them will hopefully...

As i was feeling motivated i went for a walk, managed to do 5.88 miles in 1hr 36mins, quite chuffed!

1lb off for me this week, quite happy with that as wasn't feeling too optimistic!

1lb off for me this week, quite pleased as wasn't too optimistic!

1lb off and as i wasn't too optimistic i'm pleased with that!

Thanks for changing my targets Jack, seem to be plodding lately!

ive been really good so far today and feeling more positive for tomorrows weigh in.

I'm keeping fingers crossed for at worst a STS and if lucky a small loss. Tomorrows weigh in will tell. Ive started a diary to try and motivate myself!

sometimes if i know i have low syn treats in the fridge im not bothered about munching but if i've got nothing ready i suddenly turn into a locust wanting to eat everything in sight, good or bad!

Hi, ive been doing SW from home since end of september, so far lost just over 5 stone. Obviously im really pleased with loss so far but seem to be struggling a bit the last 4 or 5 weeks. I weigh on a monday morning and thought from monday i would start a diary for two reasons. One to track...

Right, in anticipation of a not to good weigh in on monday i have done some planning ahead! Ive made, jellies, mousser and roulades to snack on, planned a 2 week menu and done a two week shop. So going to make a determined effort to be in the 14's in 4 weeks,fingers crossed!

Thinking its going to be another STS this week as sneaky weigh is showing no movement so weigh in monday not looking hopeful. Think maybe i need to go right back to basics and also do some good planning this week! :-(

Welcome Lyndzi, fingers crossed Charl!

Welcome Suze and good luck with your journey ahead!

Someone was discussing on another thread that she had tried to improve her weight loss by squeeying a lemon and adding hot water and sweetener and drinking, ideally using 3 lemons a day. Not sure if it works but trying it for a couple of weeks, nothing to loose!

Have started to vary my lunches a bit more and am trying the lemon juice thing that someone mentioned on another thread. Shouldn't moan as averaging 1 to 2lb a week, but got about 2.5 stone to go so want to keep it moving!

i started at 20.5 stone so have moved down a couple of groups, which is a great feeling, but i just seem to be stuck well and truely in this group at present, been here for weeks!

Jack if its not too much hassle can i change my targets when you update next, if its a hassle don't worry. Gold-22, silver -18, bronze -15. Thanks

Thanks Jack, your doing a grand job!

Well done arctic on staying strong and sticking with it, i hope things are going well for you this week!

forgot to update yesterday, lost 1lb another step in the right direction. Am trying the lemons experiment from another thread to see if i can shift a couple of extra lbs! Good luck everyone for the week ahead!

I'm going to try for 3 to 4 weeks to be out of here. That would put me in the 14's before my middle son's graduation. I haven't been in the 14's since before i got married nearly 26 years ago! 5.5lb in four weeks, hopefully i can do it!

Sorry to hear your not well, hope you'll soon be on the mend! Liking the attitude of getting better being the priority and maintaining being the bonus! Hope you managed to enjoy your birthday a little bit. I've been plodding at 1lb a week for a few weeks so i'm trying the lemon experiment from...

Well 1lb off so definately a tortoise! Going to try the lemon juice experiment this week and see if it helps!

Despite being good i'm not feeling very positive for tomorrows weigh in :-(

Looking forward to you joining us soon!

Well done, fingers crossed you'll be moving on next week!

yeah but the tortoise won the race, well done!

Got a new app on my phone to track my exercise and turns out my walk is in fact 2 and a half miles not 2 so quite chuffed! Have done the walk sunday, tuesday and wednesday so hopefully it will have a positive effect on my weight loss as wasn't doing any exercise before. Might up it to three...

Well done Sarah!

Well im not doing a lot but was doing none. I have started to go for a 2 mile walk at least alternate evenings, hopefully it will help my weight loss or at the very least help my fitness!

Have had a really positive couple of days eating the right things and ive even added in some exercise! Hope i can keep it up all week!

1lb off for me. I'm a bit disappointed as been really good and STS last week! :-( going to try not to get too dishfrtened!

Well 1lb off for me this week, a bit diappointed but better than putting it on! Not going to get disheartened!

just seen your question on previous page! I was 15 7.5 last monday, hoping for 2lb off tomorrow as sts last week and have been good!

Good positive attitude, good luck for wednesday!x

Well i'm hoping for a 2lb loss tomorrow and feel i have worked for it! I'm organised for the week ahead to, have made syn free roulade, syn free egg custards, low fat trifles and jelly mousse to sort out my evening craving for sweet things. Oh and i have a couple of curly whirly's on stand by...

Don't beat yourself up about it, that will just make you want to eat more naughty stuff. Drawer a line and start again. 1 it may not be as bad as you think, you can carry over syns so may not be as over as you think and 2 we all have to have a treat and fall off the diet wagon from time to...

Welcome and good luck with the journey ahead!

Sorry posted too soon. Whisk the eggs,sweetener and yogurt together. Divide into 6 muffin tins, sprinkle with nutmeg and bake at 180 for 25 mins. They do tend to go a bit out of shape as they cool but taste good!

1 banana and custard mullerlite, 3 eggs, 3tbs sweetener and nutmeg.

Welcome mrstaylor. I'll be a long time to target too! Ive lost just over five stone but got just over another 3 stone to go, so will probably see a bit of you through the zones!

Welcome bridesmaid, good luck on your journey to the 14's!

well done and good luck in the 14's!

syn free egg custard discovered a couple of days ago on this site and great when you need something sweet.

Thats the great thing with this site you get to share what you know and ask about what you don't! Good luck for the week ahead!x

should have said 'being organised'

It is difficult but aeing organised does help. I also find making a 3 or 4 syn trifle is good for a sweet tooth. 50g of arctic roll is only 5 syns and is always handy to have in the freezer, if im really needing sugar i melt a square of chocolate over it!

Good luck with your 2 week plan, i'm sure you can do it!

I often crave sweet things although not chocolate. I make the SW roulade and spread a little melted choc on it, or a curly whirly from the fridge lasts a while and about 6 syns, also tonight tried syn fre egg custard. All very good although still naughty at times.

Try not to guilt trip to much we all have naughty days from time to time and feeling guilty will just make you want naughty things even more! As you say make a new start tomorrow and think positive! Good luck, you can do it!

Well done xmandsx thats great, keep up the good work!

well arctic and hjanea its nice to know its not just me, having real trouble in the 15 to 14 stone zone, i seem to have been stuck there forever!

Thanks pigler i'm trying to stay positive and hoping foqg better neyt week. Welcome Andy, what a great loss for you this week,keep up the good work!

Well not very happy as STS which is a disappointment but going to try not to let it get me down. Not sure i'll make any of my olympic medals!

Bit disappointed with a STS this week but going to try not to let it get me down!

Well done fenyman, good luck in the next zone.

Hi Rosie and welcome to the thread, you should get lots of support for your journey here!

Thats ok I have some of those! Thanks for your help.

Hope you've had a great time!

A babybel burger with onions and mushrooms is always a good comforting lunch!

quick question, do i need to line the muffin tin with anything?

Thanks xmandsx, i love egg custard so will give this a go over the weekend.

Thanks for the tips ladies. Xmandyx can i have your syn free egg custard recipe please?

ugh oh, i had a bad moment and ate 8 squares of dark chocolate and now i regret it :-(

Mmm that sounds nice and i like strawbs!

Too late for help folks as i have demolished 8 sqares of chocolate!

Help, i'm really craving something sweet and have been nibbling squares of plain chocolate over the last couple of night! Has anyone any ideas of low syn sweet things i can snack on? I wouldnt care but when im not dieting i don't really bother with chocolate. My weigh in is monday morning so...

Well done on your journey so far, keep up the good work!

Well done Sibella, keep up the good work!

Thanks Sibella. Welcome Pigler, off you go on your journey to the 14's and onwards and downwards!

Thanks hazeyblue your support has been a great help in keeping me going. Iold off with plumping those cushions just yet as i have 7.5lb to go until i hit the 14's!

Really pleased to have lost 3.25lb this week. Was definately more motivated this week than i have been for the last few. Lets hope this is the start of me being back on track! Good luck everyone with WI this week!

WI this morning and really pleased to have lost 3.25lbs this week!

I've had a naf few weeks too hjanea but have really knuckled down this week so hoping for a decent loss on monday! Good luck with the coming week.

Alit, it might just take you a week or two to get into it, but the weight will go. Just be strong and stick with it!

Have a great holiday and hope everything goes to plan food wise but make sure you enjoy yourself!

Thanks Emmey thats a big help, your a star!

so what sort of things do you count as free and super free? As i do SW at home im not sure what they are!

Well done d14. I seem to have been stuck here for weeks and still have 10lb to go to get into 14 so won't be seeing you for a while but am going to try and knuckle down this week and shift a few pounds!!!

Wow Emmey thats great. I'll have to read back through your diary and see what you've been doing this week!

i've been running in treacle or at least it seems like it, a pound on a pound off, STS but not getting anywhere! I'm good most the week and then just bugger it up, just need to get motivated and back on track! Hope it goes well for you with WI tomorrow!

Good luck with your weigh in tomorrow, sure you'll be off to the 14's!

No not patronising at all and will give the finger and thumb thing a go. Also its been good just to chat about it! Thank you.

I'll give it a go, anything to kickstart me again and NO definately not putting the 5stone back on!

Hi, hope all is going well with you. Good luck with tomorrows weigh in!

I'm doing it cause at 8stone overweight i was huge, unhealthy and also i have my sons graduation in July. Ive lost 5stone but have got stuck!

Well done arctic, another step in the right direction!
