Ive really no idea shirleen. I mean i have moved away, and have made a few new friends. I wouldnt say im lonely as in the day im rather busy with all the things i do with my DD. I guess i just miss having that person who knows me inside out, someone alway there for me, someone to rely on...

I want to cook my OH a 3 course meal or Valentines day, slimming world style of course. I follow green and red days, but would worry i would mess up a day if i did EE as i just dont get it. What does everyone think would be a choice of food to cook? Thanks xxxx

Ill be going to class, which goes on till about half 9, so there will be no time todo anythig after. Instead i might cook my OH a nice meal the day after. Maybe a nice steak, and something yummy for pudding. I met OH in Dec 07 at a kids softplay centre, but he gave me his mates number...

Dominos pizza. My god it was lovely but i feel bad now!

I can see where she is coming from, as cooking from scratch will always be the healthiest option. But surely having a low syn ready meal is alot better than popping to greggs/ McDonalds/ the chippy amd eating an absurd amount of syns!!

Well done!

Im tempted to but the shred dvd. But im still very large ( size 16/18) 14 1/2 stone. Will i be able to manage it?!?

Hi all! So i have taken the advice of many of you lovely people out there and decided to finally start a food diary. Ive started this morning (again!!) weighing 15st 10lbs and want to set my target as 11stone. Only 4stone 10lbs to loose! Day 1 - Green Day Breakfast - 2 weetabix (HEB)...

Jimmysgirl - im a Nicola too, but i hate it! Oh wow i would love a power plate, my friend has had great results using one! I dont do much exercise to be honest. Just the usual buggy walking and running around after my little one. I would love to start running but i need to loose some weight...

Pretty much the same as what i have to loose. Its just seems so much, but in half a stone goals its do-able. Do you do much exercise?

Me too! I started last june and lost 20lbs. Been on and off since and have mostly kept it off but just cant stick at it to loose the rest!

Icandothis - you definatly can! Its so hard though! I love cider and on nights out i just cant resist!

Well done on getting back on track jimmys girls! How much to do you have to loose?

Cobra - i just have no will power anymore. I give up so easily when im tempted!

That wants to help and support each other loose weight for the final time? Im a serial restarter but im going to try my hardest to be the skinny women inside that is desperate to get out! I have 4 st 10lbs to loose, but im going to break that up into 7lb mini goals! Ill be sticking to green...

Oh gemmy! Ive nothing to say, apart from sending you big hugs!! What a rubbish time your having. Try and stay strong and lean on your husband for support. He sounds like a great guy, and together im sure you can both get through this. Are you claiming all the appropiate benefits and working tax...

Ive tried all means of distraction and i still want yummyness!! :-(

Ive had them and think they taste Diagusting! Did u have ones from chilled or frozen section? Mine were frozen - dunno if this makes any difference though!

After moaning about my OH and his bad eating habits, for the past 3 days he has been following SW to a tee! but now its me who wants to cave in!!

I bought some weight watchers pork sausages, 60calories per sausage and they are syn free. They are the ones with the new packaging with pro points on. Morrisons do the eat smart diet sausages, pack of 8, 1/2 each.

Ive just had a jam tart and choc mini roll, and now i just want to eat EVERYTHING i shouldnt. Arghhh i dunno whats wrong with me! I want to loose weight but i just have this urge to eat and eat!!!!!!!

A packet of pom bears, a raspberry jam tart and a chocolate mini roll :-(

Thanks little red! Xx

Sounda perfect to me. Although i know mcains rustics chips are 1 syn per 100g on a green day? Are they the same on red?

Love your food dairy, it all looks so yummy!! How do you make your tikka sauce? Mine never looks like that! Also are the crispy quorn fillets found in the freezer or chilled section? Thanks! Xxx

7pints of NAS squash and i cant stop peeing!!

Oh rayven what a nightmare! I cant believe the council are being like that! Were in a similar situation (left out tenancy to move in with OH nan to help her out as she is going downhill). I hope everything sorts itself out and the CAB gives you some helpful advice xxx

I Joined curves 5 years and did it for a few Months. I lost a few inches but no weight. It did however tone my arms and legs and only took 30mins a 30mins a session!

My OH is the same. He eats sooooo much. Sat night he ate a whole pizza for morrisons, two double decker beef burgers in white rolls with cheese, bacon and sauce, chips followed by two jam cream cakes and packet of crisps! All for his tea! I worked it our to be well over 2200 calories! I find his...

WI this morning and I lost 4lbs after a gain last week, taking me to 15 1/2 stone. 7lbs to go till the 14s!!!

Me and the OH went to the pub this afternoon with our friends. Our friends ordered food and my OH ordered cheesy chips and i sat down with my diet pepsi and resisted! Soooo hard!

My first NSV!! My bf said this morning that i looked thinner after i got out the shower, and my friend said she could tell ive lost weight as my face was thinner too!!!! :-)

Comfort food for me as im feeling very stressed - cajan wedges, beans and salad

Im in bath pinpant. Wish i could come to your group, my consultant is rubbish!!

Ive had a good day too. And like you rayven ive had a syn free day to make up for a binge last night :-( Just been to my OH parents for a birthday tea for his nan. Everyone had fish and chips from the chippy, and nibbles like sausages, pork pies etc and i stuck to my jacket potato that i took...

For a lot of over-weight people, food isn't just something to use as fuel, its a comfort, a friend, an addiction. Both myself and my councellor have likened it to being an alcoholic - you wouldn't say to an alcoholic you can have a shot of whiskey three times a day but thats it. The same...

Twinkle - u will find it with all the packet mixes in the supermarkets. Its a bag that u put your chicken in and sprinkle the spices on and cook. The chicken comes out so tasty and so juicy! Lol they do paprika flavour, garlic, mixed herb and sweet and sour. They rsng between 4-5.5 syns so...

So juicy mixed herbs - it was AMAZING!! Had it with loads of carrots, broccoli and green beans with a jacket potato as a HeB

Today is the first time ive had a day at home to myself since my LO was born 14 months ago. She is at her grandparents for the day, so ive already been to morrisons, hoovered the house, cleaned and hoovered my car (which was beyond diagusting!!), prepared tea - so juicy mixed herbs with veg and...

We went to harvester so i had combine harvester - flamegrilled chicken, spitroast chicken (skin removed) and chicken wings (skin removed), with a jacket potato (heb), salad, bbq sauce and 2 bread rolls and butter! Opps!! I gave my sausage and onion rings to my OH. Think i did pretty well and im...

My OH told me last night he wants us to try for another baby. We currently have a 14 month old so my aim is too slim down as much as i can and try at the end of the year :-) dont ever wanna be fat and pregnant again!!

Thankyou everyone. I feel slightly better now x

Thats what i thought, it was * week last week. I only ate fish and chips, mr whippy icecream and a cheeky belguim bun! Been drinking lots too. Feel pretty rubbish now!

Well my day off resulted in a 4lb gain! :-( wasnt expecting it to be that bad. Imagine if i was off plan all week, blimey!

My legs are HIDEOUS! Fat massive calves, huge thighs that resemble corned beef, thread veins everywhere and ive no idea where my bum starts cos my thighs and bum merge together into a big fat wobbly lump. :-(

I was 15st 7lbs last monday at WI but i had 2days off plan so im expecting a gain tomorow. Hopefully getting into the 14s wont take too long!

I bought 2 pairs of cropped jeans and they fit perfectly :-)

A jam tart and loads of chocs from roses tin! Opps!

Me and my bf are taking our 1 year old to the beach on saturday and it will b her first time :-) I am thinking of having a day off plan, purely cos a trip to beach has gotta be followed with icecream and fish and chips, well for me anyway! Ive been 100% all week, and will b back on track sunday...

Chicken smothered in bbq sauce with my HeA of cheese on top, 2HeB of potatoes made into cajan wedges, a massive salad and a dollop of extra light mayo :-)

Ive just moved from corsham! My doctors there didnt do SWon referall :-(

And i lost 4lbs!! Total of 16.5lbs in 3 weeks! Im sooo happy and very proud of myself! I love SW!

Since starting SW my cravings have vanished. But i wouldnt turn down a yummy french fancie or two!

So juicy paprika chicken, heB jacket potato, salad and green beens. Yummy!

Thanks guys. I already use bio oil to help with the old marks. Just cudnt believe that losing weight made more appear!

Were not going out as i didnt want to blow my 100% week. I havent mastered self control yet and would go completely over the top synwise. :-(

I noticed earlier that since this morning ive developed bright red stretch marks going all up my tummy halfway up to my boobs. It looks distgusting!! I never even had them this bad when i was pregnant with my DD. Ive lost a stone in 3 weeks. Would loosing weight cause them? As if i feel ugly...

I took my daughter to softplay with our friends. At lunch i tucked in to my chicken sandwich and fruit salad and resisted chips and cakes that the others were eating :-D and thats never happened before! Go me!!!

Good luck gingerjo!

I ran on the treadmill for 4 mins! Sounds silly but for me, a huge achivement!

Well done jess! Amazing loss, keep it going xx

Thanks guys Mandy - It was my induction, and he made me a workout to help with back problems. Im just sooo unfit, and i havent done any exercise in years. Ive never been good at doing squats ( i think this is what killed me) and he gave me exercises to do to stetch my hamstrings as they are so...

But today my legs are killing me! Standing up, bending down and going on the stairs are a killer and i feel like im legs are going to fall off! Lol. Does anyone think i should go today? Or have a rest? I dont think i would b able to manage the squats i have to do, or the 300 steps on the...

I know ill be upset so as I weigh at home i dont think ill weigh myself and try and be good. I think im doing this to myself because i know im having next weekend off, and the agevold think "it wont hurt" Really need a slimming buddy to keep Me on track!!

Im a size 20, will i be able to do this??

Been on SW since start of jan and have lost 16lbs. But since weds night ive been pigging out. And my daughter is 1 next sat and cos i know im letting myself have that weekend off i just cant get in the right frame of mind. I had a mcdonalds today :-(

I fell off last night too. 4 french fancies, jaffa cakes, 2mini rolls, and 2 packs of crisps later, and im very disgusted with myself :-(

Im not sure gem i had a bloodtest a few times over the years although I had the lucozade test when i was pregnant to check for gestation diabetes - they called it a glucose tolerance test? Xx

Gem- do you feel thirsty all the time? If so might be worth having a blood for diabetes. I had all the symptoms but my results were negetive. If you need a chat, just pm me, cos i no how u feel! But please try and drink more water as you will do more damage than good Xx

I have exactly the same thing. I have a small drink and i need to wee for hours! The night times are worse, i used to get up between 4-6times. It started a few months b4 i fell pregnant, was terrible for those 9 months with the baby pushing on my bladder aswell, and my LO is now 1 and i still...

Chicken chasseur (3syns), new potatoes (HEB), carrots, broccoli and green beans

Sparky - im definatly eating enough! And im on iron tablets anyways but thanks for the suggestion!

Since starting SW 4weeks ago, ive been constantly cold, more than usual for this time of year. Does anyone else feel like this, or is it just me?

I would love to loose 7lbs :-) Can someone please add me to the list, i cant do it on my phone! Thanks lovelys!

Pasta in a homemade tomato sauce, with broccoli, carrots, peas and sweetcorn, with my HEa of cheese! Yum yum and a bowl of jelly for afters :-)

For me it is just knowing that one day i wont look like mr blobby anymore (oviously not yellow and pink hehe) and that my thighs are on their way to being smaller than my bfs!!

Ruby- ive been doing green and red days. Mostly green but one or two red days just to get a break from the carbs. Cant get my head around EE at all, and since ive been doing the original plan on off for 9years im happy sticking with what i know.

My cupboard staples are; Frylight Tinned tomatoes Passata Good varity of spices cajan spices (delicious on wedges) Stock cubes Tom puree Sugar free jelly! Always have beans and spagetti on hand too! Good luch! Xx

Thank you. Im alot happier, but cant really see the difference yet! I started at 16 st 9lbs so i think it will be atleast another half stone till i drop a dress size.

Ive lost my first stone in 3 1/2 weeks! Wahoo! Im sooo happy! Already lost 5 inchs off my waist and 4 off my hips. Ive up'ed my veg and water intake and think this has helped alot! 5 more stone to go is daunting but it looks very do-able now! :-)

Opps! Ive been doing SW from home for 3weeks and have lost 11lbs so far. Ive still going 5stone to loose! It seems impossible!

Elb- im exactly the same, id rather go to bed! Lol Ive been taking multivits and iron tablets for months. And i only work 2days a week. Omg im sounding like a right lazy wotsit!

Its been going on, on and off for years, since i had glandular fever 8years ago. I eat plently of salad, veg, fruit, carbs, protein. Think my eating is the best its ever been. I would like to blame my daughter who is nearly 1, but she sleeps from 7pm till 9 am! Lol

Is anyone tired all the time? Im fed up of it. I feel like im running on empty constantly. My bf is always moaning cos by 8pm im always tucked up in bed. :-(

Roast potatoes, carrots, peas, brocolli, green beans, HeB of chicken and a little bit of gravy! It was delicious!! :-)

Im gonna to try and do kfc chicken. Hope its nice!!

My bf has just made a batch of SW crisps and OMG they are delicious!!! Just like thin kettle crisps! Nom nom!!
