Why is that as soon as someone has a difference of opinion you all decide to gang up on them and start turning nasty. Not kingleds and vanilka_cupcake I was writing this as you posted. I don't want anyone to agree with me but I should be able to state my opinion without feeling bullied and to...

I'm sorry where the hell have you got that from don't be so ridiculous now making assumptions about me and me. Where do you get off saying things like that. You don't know me or anything about me so don't put words into my mouth.

It was never meant to sound like I was having a go at being overweight why would I I'm overweight aswell, all I'm trying to say is that I don't think that for those who reach 40+ stone and don't think they have a problem - and I don't mean people who extenuating circumstances which have aided...

Well everyone seems to take everything out on me, I've never wanted people to agree with my opinion so it would be nice for once to be sale to share my opinion without everyone getting their torches and pitchforks out.

Your all missing my point,I'm disagreeing with excuses being made for being that size but when someone is proactive trying to solve their situation then that's brilliant respect to them and they deserve all the help they can get! If anyone of any size knows they have a problem and starts...

Everyone's having a your wrong were right moment I'm sorry but I refuse to change my opinion that an illness alone can make you weigh 40 stone or more, or that being overweight should be classed as a disability its like they all want me to feel sorry for the seriously overweight 40+ stone people...

Why should it be shame on me? I haven't asked anyone to agree with my opinion and its not going to change and I'm not ashamed of the way I feel so no offence just deal with it! I'm entitled to feel and say what I want that's the beauty of freedom of speech. I don't see how anyone can reach 40+...

Lol good I think I might get freaked out if I could feel bubs moving while were having sex. I'm going to try and keep on top of tidying I think I will have to go to sitting on the side of the bath as I grow lol I'm going to be 4 months tomorrow woo! I just can't wait until July when I finish...

Yeah of course you can the more of us the better! I've got to increase mine from 14lbs to 18lbs in 9 weeks after my gain oops! Lol X x x

Lol I can't help it :D Thought it was about me not agreeing that obesity is a disability I apologise for assuming it twas me lol

:D .

For us the first 12 weeks my hubby was too scared to have sex as he didn't want anything to go wrong but after the 12 week scan everything as returned to business as usual ;) lol. What about when baby is kicking, do you feel kicks when your having sex? And something I've been dying to ask and...

It is defensive because there is sharing opinions and having a debate which is what I was doing without forcing anyone to agree with me because I don't really care if people like my opinion or agree with my feelings but then you have been trying to force me into your point of view and by saying...

I never asked you to agree with me.

I'm not saying it doesn't effect their day to day life but in my opinion at the end of the day they have nobody to blame but themselves and so no I will not change my opinion and I do not appreciate you trying to force your opinion on me. I'm an opinionated person but I will never force someone...

I bet your hubby doesn't agree! He will have come in to watch you cause he enjoys it X x x

I've had an apple banana and Muller light for my breakfast and I'm having a pork burger in a wholemeal bap for my dinner mmm X x x

At no stage does it become a disability and I have not misinterpreted what you have said,we are not discussing people who are 20 or even 30 stone we are discussing the 40+ stone people who are seen on the show and even then it is not a disability. Someone with anorexia is also another case of...

LOL!

I don't think you can say being obese is a disability, I work with people with disabilities and I think its wrong to compare someone who has knowingly placed thousands of calories worth of food in their mouths over years and years of abuse getting themselves into a position where they can no...

How have they paid any taxes when they are on disability benefit because of their weight? You don't get to weigh 40 stone or more overnight. What I find disgraceful about wasting money on a lift for a man that can still walk and could get up the stairs - yes it may take him half an hour but so...

I'm just going to chalk it up to weighing in at night this week instead of morning like last week, also just coming off a 24 hour shift this morning makes me carry water x x x

Omg yeah no way have I eaten 4000 cals a day! Will just have to see what next week holds! X x x

Maybe he is sitting there thinking Omg someone stinks of BO in here and doesn't realise its him. A guy I worked with in telephone banking had it bad so a manager took him to one side to ask him if everything was ok at home was he struggling with washing clothes or showering. He didn't know it...

I say that about natural disasters, people panic that the end is nigh but there have always been tsunamis, earth quake, floods and famine but 5, 10, 15 years ago you couldn't press refresh on your iPhone on the news page and be bombarded with death and destruction and disaster! X x x

I hope so i know I have water retention in my legs today after my long shift but not 4lbs worth lol

Ugh I put on 4lbs I can't believe it I've been so good!

Yeah but I've been really good and I'm only 16 weeks, I've never put that much on in a week before :(

You put on 4lbs but you've been really good :(

I'm so upset I've put 4lbs on this week and I've stuck to plan really well :( I think it must be a combination of weighing in at 9.30am last week and 7.30pm and that it was a different consultant with different scales and water retention from finishing a 24 hour shift this morning I'm still...

It's terrible, and that thousands are having to be spent on special reinforced beds and ambulances! I was mortified when at the fertility clinic I was told I couldnt go on the bed as it only held 18 stone or less and I was 19.5 that was the day I realised I had to do something! He explained...

When I started a healthy weight was half of my body weight I still took it on alone and I had pcos but by losing weight the pcos disappeared. I think overweight people make a lot of excuses me included but when I stopped making excuses I started losing weight! X x x

You have to buy new tyres and it makes you feel dead proud cause your a big girl now lol! X x x

I've done it hun, bought an extra bar of chocolate and scoffed it in the car and hidden packets down the sofa because I've been embarrassed and felt guilty but the joy of these revelations is that we can admit what we've done and we know where we've been going wrong but these who are reaching 40...

I agree with it being a vicious circle and I think that is the element that is missing from these kinds of shows they show people eating all the food but don't show the guilt and shame they feel after. I think that's my Capricorn self coming out, I try not to upset people with my opinion but I...

Just downloaded my fitness pal I'm on 1740 cals a day I've entered what all my food and drink for today will be and I'm 49 cals under lol X x x

I've never heard of an underlying illness alone helping someone to weigh 48 stone or more, to get to that kind of weight you have to be consuming a diet of 5000 calories a day + I used to say I was fat because of this or that its all rubbish, you get fat because you eat too much of the wrong...

So annoyed with myself, I forgot to bid on a dream genii pillow and it went for £10.50 Arghhhhhh X x x

In under 2 hours when everyone else is on the way to work I will just be finishing and going home to my bed!

Yeah my dad needed a stair lift because the cancer treatment was making him so tired he couldn't get upstairs to bed on his own (which at 60 and 61 he found degrading) the council said no because my mum is a teacher but who has £4000 lying about these days! In the end a merchant navy charity...

Dear my husbands horrible cousin. Your a ***** and you have been since the day we met, you took advantage of Rob when he had nowhere to live you charged him £300 a month to sleep in your squalid sofa, clean your clothes, dishes and home and care for your children You did everything in your...

You'd think would you! It's because its strong enough to carry 40 stone. The guy could walk but couldn't get up the stair and carry a drink. What a waste of cash!

I know £10,000 for a lift in this guys house tonight!

Your sooooooooo tired but you can't wind down and sleep because your in work :(

I don't think the skinniest mini looks good in skinny jeans anyway lol they are a horrible fashion along with wet look leggins and anything lycra lol Bring back bell bottoms! Disclaimer - just in my opinion #imnofashionguru :D

I find things like the biggest loser and obese a year to save my life motivating but shows like this and the half ton teen seem like they have specifically been made so that people will watch it and laugh at them and feel disgusted by them ad there is no in-depth view into the 'person' behind...

What's more of a shame is that there is perfectly good and well equipped hospital 5 mins from my house but it only has one ward open for the mentally ill as the government decided we didn't need 2 hospitals within 21 miles of each other. It's ridiculous, people die in the time it takes an...

It's on channel 5 hun :) I agree though who is it that's is feeding them when they can no longer leave the house, and why don't local authorities organise a diet meals on wheels of 3 meals a day brought at the three meal times and not allow them to have any other food in the house - I'm sure...

Has anyone seen this programme, its about the treatment overweight people are receiving - its a little bit like look at these big fat fatties who can't even get out of their house. It's a bit degrading to these people. One lady had a bmi of over 100, I had no idea that was even possible! The...

With my mum they will have no choice, especially as they are facing a court case for neglect leading to my dads death, if I could go to another hospital I would but the other one is 50 miles so I've no option! X x x

I would have kicked off big style lol I know at our hospital if you have an easy natural birth you go home the same day! Even when its your first baby - my mum was shocked at that. I don't see why babies dad can't sts the night with you its his baby too! They say you can feel them earlier when...

My bmi was 38 when I got pregnant I'm now 15+5 weeks and I've lost 6lbs so far. Losing weight in the first 12 weeks is very very hard because if you have terrible morning sickness like I did then you just eat anything you can keep down! The best time to lose is the second tri as sickness calms...

I know how your feeling i started work 10am and I'm here till 9am and I've worked 8 days in a row I'm whacked been on my feet all day doing a party for one of the service users. When I hit 6 months I'm going to ask them to take me off sleep in shifts then I'm going to work until the last week of...

You have over £1000 in your savings and its not yours its to pay for your sisters hen :(

I think I can just feel the baby stretching out because every now and then I feel a pushing sensation lol bubs was very very active at my 12 week scan so I might be feeling movement lol. My mum would play hell with the hospital if they wouldn't let her in, they won't be sticking to visiting...

I'm so sorry hun but at least he's not in pain anymore, I lost my dad last Feb. Pm me if you need to chat huni x x x

Yeah he's trying he has patches and stuff from boots, I've told him once he finishes the ones hes got that's it no more! Im glad we never smoked in the house though, my nanna used to when she was alive! X x x

Has anyone ever had a video baby monitor and a movement one? I can't find one that does both! So I'm bidding on one of each on ebay lol if I can get both for £100 its cheaper than buying one of them brand new. X x x

I need to, I'm starting to show and there is nothing worse than seeing a pregnant woman smoking I've wanted to stop for such a long time I've hated being a smoker for years. X x x

I've not had one since Wednesday and I'm doing ok! I had to shout at my hubby he went to light one in the car he just forgot lol. Nearly 2 days! I'm really proud of myself. X x x

You shouldn't blame yourself hun you didn't provoke him. The scum already knew what he wanted to do that night and it just happened to be you so never blame yourself. X x x

This is absolutely true, I was attacked by two Irish men when I was 18 but I was never a victim I fought back like an alley cat that night and those vile men will carry the scars for life, they both went to jail for a long time because I wasn't the first to get attacked but I was the first to...

Tesco and morrisons, they come in a pack of 6 in Tesco they are with the crackers and morrisons by the crisps. They are in a blue pack X x x

That's exactly how I was, I was needing salty and sweet things to help the sickness! Things that are pretty good are belvitta breakfast buiscuits I know they are syns but eat one before you get out of bed will help and ryvita salt and vinegar minis are now a healthy B, snacking on them helped...

Course you can congratulations and welcome :) 14lbs in 6 weeks is a lot in the first few weeks especially if you start suffering with morning sickness so dont get upset if it doesnt happen - i've lost 4 lbs so far and i'm 15 weeks, some weeks i've been on track but i've put on 2lbs because...

Hope your dad starts getting better soon hun, its really tough when someone you love is unwell in the hospital xxx

No can't do that my mums a teacher and this is a small town she would tell me its unchristian like and he was inky doing his job. Lol

I'm furious, I'd stayed in the car while my hubby ran in so if I was sick at least it wasn't in the middle of a food aisle but because he'd seen me get out of the drivers side he assumed I was drunk!

You throw up in Tesco car park just as a policeman walks past and he refuses to believe your pregnant and suffering hyperemisis and forces you to do a breath test. They will be getting one heck of a complaint letter in the morning.

Did you test the first wee of the day? X x x

Do another test in a few days hun, you never know it may be too early for their to be enough hormones x

It's just the first thing in the morning after meals and at night was when I was sharing with my hubby so they will be the ones I miss! I can do this! X x x

Well in that case its definitely not fair then, we have a blind lady who we give her clothes to touch and if she likes the feel and pattern it goes in the basket, she is deaf aswell. I hate it when support workers decide what's right for Su's everyone can communicate in different ways doesn't...

I really struggled with sickness and for 3 weeks lived on liquids but it was lucazade and high cal stuff to try and stop me needing a drip but I'm over that now so have been able to concentrate on my diet but I'm bot being too restrictive if I want chocolate I have it! I'm having up to 20 syns a...

Day 1 - been up since 6am and so far I'm managing ok without a cigarette. I'm writing as I'm having a little craving now but its already almost been 12 hours without a smoke! I already feel better, my breathing feels easier and I don't feel as wound up as I did when I was smoking funnily...

Wow that's fantastic hun well done you! Tbh I think that girl must just have been built like a bucket because the only other person on that show who has had an equally easy birth was a woman who was on her 7th natural birth lol. X x x

Oops in my house I'm the one who says that to my husband when he moans at me lol! X x x

I'm feeling really angry with my work tonight. First they have put me on 4 sleep ins this week including a 24 hour shift. Then they wake me early in the morning trying to make me work with a violent woman to with I said on your bike luv. Then tonight they've tried to bully me into taking one...

Dear cow at work, Thanks for getting chicken out for tea about ten mins before I came in, it was still frozen duh! And it was very rude for you to tell me I can use the sauce in the fridge as it goes off it has cider in it and I'm pregnant so I can't have it and for you turn around and say...

It was 3 months ago now hun lol so yep he's fine :D x x x

Mw told me I'm not alloud, the instructor is obviously going to be a lot fitter than me so I would rather not risk it! Walking ny dog an hour a day is exercise enough being pregnant is knackering lol.

You need to get in the shower as you have work in an hour and you thought a 5 min lie down wouldn't hurt and now you don't want to get out of bed! X x x

Didn't you get a letter? None is alloud to see the results for the hiv test apart from you, it doesn't even go on your medical records. All the other results you should be able to ring your Dr to get - I think you should give your mw a call chick see what's going on. X x x

I had all my bloodshed done at my 9 week booking app I don't want the downs test so I think I've had them all. Did all yours come with ticks next to the test? My mw warned me that the ticks just mean you've had that test, it doesn't mean you have it lol, she had someone that called her in a...

I know what you mean my nanna had an oxygen mask at the end. My dad quit smoking the day my big sister was born he had bowel cancer and ended up with pneumonia which killed him he couldn't breath :( I've never wanted to quit so much in my life I AM going to do it X x x

Thank you hun X x x

I thought we came in the middle last year it was a few years ago we came last now I think. X x x

It's stupid I've wanted to quit for 2 years now, my nanna died of lung cancer and my dad died of cancer and now I'm pregnant what more do I need to happen to make myself quit! We've always smoked outside I actually hate the smell of smoke Tbh I don't even enjoy smoking so we've always gone out...

That's all you can do really, all the pregnancy things I've read have just said to have an extra bowl of cereal in the third trimester or 2 pieces of buttered toast because that equates to an extra 200 cals X x x

Wow that's so surprising! My me and Dr are both really supportive of sw its funny how different they can be. If they told me not to I would stop aswell though! X x x

As soon as I found out I was pregnant I switched from full strength superkings to king-size lights which are half the size. I don't smoke a cigarette of my own either anymore, my oh smokes so when he has one I have a few shallow drags and that's what I'm finding hard to stop. He is trying to...

I'm going to try and quit tomorrow, I feel more positive now I've admitted I'm struggling I've had none to talk to about it so if I can use this to talk through how I'm feeling like we all do with weight it might help me. X x x

Hi everyone, Just wondering if anyone is quitting while pregnant, has quit while pregnant or is still smoking? Just after seeing stacey Solomon on this morning yesterday it was a little heartbreaking how guilty and ashamed she felt. I'm 15 weeks and still struggling to quit properly I've...

You get a call at 8am from work asking if you can go work with a particular lady. NO - for 3 reasons. 1- she's violent, I'm pregnant and you know I'm not supposed to work with her now so why wake me up. 2- I've never worked with her before which you also know! 3. I'm doing 4 sleep in...

You wouldn't get in a car with me then my husband sings Cerys Matthews you give me rrrrrrroad rrrrrrage but to be fair its because I'm fed up of the council employed builders going 50 miles an hour around blind corners by a school AND parking in front of my house - my house is NOT a council...

You only want to lose 2lbs? Or you want to loss 8.5lbs? I can't tell if your Target is 9 stone 7 lbs or 9 stone and half a pound ... The rules are different if your a returning member, if your a brand new member you would not be ok to join if you only had 2lbs to lose, the consultant...

The rule with slimming world is that you must be able to lose 7lbs to join so if the minimum weight you were ever alloud to be going on BMI is 10 stone you would only be able to join slimming world if you weighed more than 10 stone 7lbs. Hope that makes sense :)

that annoys me aswel! Its not that muscle weighs more than fat its that after you've done a lot of excercise you retain water because your muscles are repairing themselves - the best thing to do is actually drink a glass of milk after a workout as it helps your body heal faster than water or...

Oo when I used to go to London I would get a millies muffin and hot choc for the journey hone yum! X x x

All of us wanting to lose weight are only early on in second trimester and all of us have said we want to sts in the third. I don't understand how it can be missed that this is a weight loss challenge thread! When I hit the third trimester I won't be posting in this thread anymore, it will be...

Tell me about it! It's not like I turned around and said I want to lose 6 stone and hit Target while I'm pregnant! I only want to lose a stone and a bit! X x x

Let's just draw a line under this conversation. This is a weight loss thread, we are all in this thread because we want to lose weight during pregnancy. That's all there is to it! Let's get back to what this thread was created for a fun and competitive atmosphere in which we can encourage...

Of course it was stupid but anorexia is an illness and its the people around her to blame for not getting her help but the point I'm making with that is losing weight won't stop any of us having a healthy baby and it will definitely help us during labour.

No wonder you had ketones in your system with hyperemisis, you do know its also a sign of dehydration? I suffered hyperemisis and almost ended up on a drip but the ketones were due to dehydration and not weight loss. Your welcome to stay but I don't think its fair for you to make negative...

It's just it felt a bit like you were being condescending towards us who do want to lose weight its our choice and you should respect that. The weight you lose during pregnancy is fat that's the point nothing happens to the babies size or the fluid or the blood it doesn't effect that. An...

Http://pda.physorg.com/_news100284051.html Clinical studies of the POSITIVES for obese and overweight women to lose weight during pregnancy.

My point is why come on a thread that is titled weight loss challenge when you don't agree with losing weight! If you don't agree with it don't read the thread I don't go off into the vlcd forums telling them I don't agree with their diet choice because its their choice and none of my business...

I don't have any scales lol sometimes I jump on my mums though! I like the hospital scales best, they make me half a stone lighter than slimming work lol! X x x

I carry all my weight on my double Decker bus booty and my thunder thighs lol! My stomach goes really flat when I lie down, my mam said she was expecting me to have a flabby belly but when I lie down I go from size 18 to a 14 lol ... maybe I should get rolled everywhere on a bed! X x x

The thread started because lots of us said we wanted to lose a stone so we thought we would make it a fun challenge as some inspiration! I want to get down into the 15's before I'm 6 months gone then sts for the rest of my pregnancy, if I can do that I will be over the moon! X x x

In sorry of my post offended you, I just found it a little upsetting that someone said that weight loss can be dangerous during pregnancy which is bot true - its a weight loss challenge thread the aim is to lose weight! I hope you change your mind and stay X x x

Just annoyed me why come on a weight loss challenge thread in the pregnancy without the pounds section if you think weight loss during pregnancy can be dangerous, if that's the case just let the rest of us have our fun and get on with it! X x x

I've not had it on mine and I'm 16 stone! My 12 week was really clear though so we will see if I get it on my 20 week! X x x P.s oasis buy some new scales lol

Dyjhiw you create a thread to help those of us who want to lose weight during pregnancy and want to compete and have some banter and it gets hijacked - if you don't agree with or want to lose weight during pregnancy that's your choice but why post on a thread specifically for people who DO!

It's perfectly plausible and healthy to lose weight during pregnancy when your overweight it means you will have less complications during labour and it has no dangers at all as long as your midwife has agreed it is ok for you to lose weight. After all this is a weight loss challenge thread it...

In 10 weeks I will be 25 weeks so almost 6 months so if I can lose a stone by the time I'm 6 months then sts through the 3rd trimester I will be over the moon! X x x

That's what my hubby said! Lol X x x

Thank you :) its scary that I didn't realise how big I had let myself get until I lost weight! X x x

It's called the pregnancy weighloss challenge in pregnancy without the pounds :D X x x

Hi everyone! After many of us saying we want to lose weight I thought it would be good for us to have a challenge thread! This thread is for those wanting to lose weight who have been approved by their midwife to lose weight - this is a weight loss challange thread it is for us all to...

Hehe I think we need a new thread! Gimme a sec and I will do one X x x

Hi everyone - I've got 5 stone still to lose but here is my before shot ... And me 3 stone lighter so far! X x x

Woo competition! What day do you weigh in lol? Shall we start our own thread? X x x

My husband told me they are just hypnotic lol

I'm surprised I haven't had that written on my notes or is that something that only happens at 20 weeks and I can look forward to it? X x x

My hubby had a right moan when my bum started to deflate lol he loved my booty Haha X x x

He's starting to worry - he's 26, how long is it going to be until people think its weird that a man is working with children and if you get accused of something like that it doesn't matter that your innocent its too late. He loves his job but he's starting to think he needs to look into a new...

Misskat it doesn't feel real to me either and I don't think it will until I have my baby safely in my arms! I would really like to drop into the 15 stone bracket ASAP so I really want to lose 10lbs then I would be happy to maintain until baby comes lol X x x

I love my boobs but I was a 36F when I was slim at 16 so I don't think they will go anywhere ... don't know big they are going to get while I'm preggers though lol

My hubby is a qualified children's nursery nurse and my mum is a nursery teacher, I'm set! Lol X x x

I've been really bad aswell hun, I got away with an sts today but I need to eat more fruit and veg, I feel huge even though Ive lost 4lbs since finding out I was pregnant I feel really big! X x x

I haven't either hun - I've changed adult "pads" we call them but they are adult nappies at work its not as hard as your expecting and you pick up tricks so fast! X x x

I've bought one of the sangenic bin systems that individually wraps each happy to lock in smells - £7 in morrisons but the refills are about £3.50 if you buy them individually. We have adult versions at work - I work with adults with disabilities I would really recommend them, they are so...

That's really cool, we used masks in a project at sandfield high in Liverpool for a group of autistic students and they responded fantastically to them, it went down so well we were employed by the arts council to tour it during our 3rd year at uni :D X x x

Aww sleepy I'm so sorry to hear that hun. I know nothing we say will be able to help but big hugs to you and your oh x x x

It's the council unfortunately we are the only owners on a row of council houses and they are all being re wired! X x x

Oh dear - I always seem to get ill when i get a break aswell I think its because you hold yourself wound up so tight then you get a break and you relax and BAM you get sick! lol DYJHIW they are drilling next door and it sounds like they are going to come straight through! xxx

Sleepy hope your scan goes ok today hun xxx

It's in caernarfon, it was all over the north Wales news at the time they had to close for lots of inspections but I think they've re opened now. X x x

Has anyone been to Tesco with the half price sale? I bought the cutesy little grey snow suit with ears on the hood its so cute £7 lol X x x

We have a GoApe near us and they opened a new zip wire thing and a little boy came off it because something was wrong with the connections and died :/ was so sad. X x x

You wanted lasagne on your hubbys birthday meal out but they ran out so you order 2 starters instead because it was 241 and man and hubby had mains so was the cheaper option! but both had garlic in them and now you stink! Thanks baby bump for liking garlic things! X x x

Do boots still have weighing machines for 20p? Lol Morrisons had some quite cheap and I think lidl aswell X x x

Congratulations and of course you can :) what's your due date? X x x

The list was just copied from elsewhere online as a rough guide, personally I hate talc - its only good use is to pour it down the sink and run the tap because it goes sludgey lol!

Oo do you have a food mixer? I do mine in that it makes soup smoother imo lol X x x

I don't think I've ever had a water infection but I do have the smallest bidder in the world, even before I got pregnant I could wee every hour lol maybe that's why Ive never had one! X x x

That's what I mean I'm friends with people I had meaningless moments with when we were at school but people I was with long term I don't really want them to know what I'm up to, its none of their business lol. Plus if she has been nasty and rude in the past why would he want to stay friends...

... why are they still friends on fb?

Hope everything is ok x x x

Fire poker woop! X x x

If food diary isn't working they should be doing an s.a.s log not cutting syns x x x

A really kind lady gives you a graco pram with newborn snug and stroller and changing bag and won't take any money all because one wheel needs replacing! It's hardly been used and must have cost a fortune new, what a kind lady X x x

I've never head of anyone being told to cut their syns just follow success express x

Don't worry if its only when you wipe I had it at 6 + 4 and paniced! Is it brown or bright red? They said to me its usually old blood that had pooled higher up and has now cone out, put your feet up and chill x x x

My mums a radley queen aswell, she has 6 handbags 3 purses and a brolly lol she buys them Everytime we go to cheshire oaks! X x x

Good old I'm not the only one! Most stuff I've read says nothing happens until after 30 weeks! Lol I will be careful of that, thank you! X x x

I'm definitely making colostrum its a clear sticky liquid coming from both boobs I'm really shocked I'm making it at 14 + 4! Hopefully its a good sign for breastfeeding X x x

Hi ladies, how early did you start producing anything? I'm only 14 + 4 and I think I'm making colostrum already. I was having some boob pain so I gave them a bit of a massage and a sticky clear liquid came out. Apologies if this is tmi! X x x

Everyone should have just voted for the stark raving loony party at least then we would have had a 99p coin LOL X x c

Of course he is the conservatives are the rich peoples party and they always have been! Why people voted for them is beyond me!

I really enjoy the biggest loser US, although it does make me think that why do all these people have some deep rooted problem that explains why they are fat, none has ever turned around and said to jillian because I enjoy the way good tastes or because I like eating and don't really understand...

Everyone's different hun, I think I'm doing it so early because I've been producing the hormone for breastmilk for years even though this is my first pregnancy! From what I've read for most people its after 30 weeks. X x x

Lol me and all my friends have a Eurovision party! We also play spot the Welsh flag there is always a Welsh flag in the audience! We give them marks aswell its great my husband is a Eurovision expert he knows every act that's won ... ever! X x x

Lol its better than the turkey they used one year! We won't win, even if we had an amazing act everyone hates the UK and we all know its politically voted anyway! I think the hoff is doing it for Germany now he's an older act I'm looking forward to lol X x x

It's not that he's old its more that he's not going to be able to compete with what's associated with Eurovision, I want to watch pirates and tin men and other randomness not a guy who hasn't had a hit in over 40 years! He's to serious for the Eurovision, the guy last year who had an amazing...

Does anyone else get the feeling that the UK doesn't want to win on purpose this year after the expense of the Olympics? I mean seriously a 75 year old? Eurovision is about trashy catchy euro POP not a crooner that we will be lucky if he actually lives that long enough to perform. As much...

That's why sw is the only plan approved during pregnancy as it isn't a diet its healthy eating :D X x x

That must be the old leaflet, I have the new one printed 2012, throughout pregnancy 2 A's and 2B's are needed and you follow extra easy, I can't quote th bf bits as I'm only 14 weeks so will read that in 25 weeks Lol If you were only 8lbs from Target you wouldn't have been advised to lose...

It was clear and fluidy last night, maybe the thick white stuff was just clearing out, ii dunno I will ask my midwife when I see her. I used to have my nipples pierced but removed them 4 years ago so they shouldn't effect my ability to breastfeed will it? X x x

I dont unfortunately - its people who come on here and say their C hasnt told them anything or given them the leaflet and they are already 15 weeks pregnant, it really gets my goat! I know thats why but they could have called superfree something else couldnt they as the S and SS work great in...

Thank you :D My consultant is also our area manager so she is excellent, we got to know everything immediately and were quite often the testers for new hi fi bars :giggle: She also keeps bullying me to be a consultant because she has new groups she wants to open in the area - so i told her...

I know some consultants arent telling their pregnant members to increase their A's and B's - that pees me off as its not been added for fun its so your getting enough calcium fibre and vitamins to support the baby growing inside! I think the 20 syns idea is a good idea but it needs to be used...

Sometimes I have like a thick white discharge - it looks a lot like when you squeeze a spot but a lot thicker! lol so for the tmi! The weird feeling got worse last night and turned into a stabbing pain that was going from the back of my boob to the nipple so i think its just growing pains...

I wd 19 stone when I started and I was also told by my consultant to have up to 20, its not something your consultant has decided its a directive from sw head office that the consultants pass on to us. I don't often have the 20 but sometimes its nice to have the flexibility and its never slowed...

My SIS worked in a Tesco express in London while she was at dance college and some rude c o w started throwing the huge cans of dog food at her for no reason! X x x

Aww pugs are so cute! My sister wants a pud called Mr pickles hehe x x x

How early did everyone start getting strange feeling nipples? My are itching and one of them leaked water today! I have always had odd boobs as I produce colostrum randomly when not pregnant so wonder if its just something to do with that? X x x

Oh no! What kind of puppy do you have? Some people are idiots! X x x

Lol I was on my computer (unusually) and when I was on the proper pregnancy and sw thread it had suggested threads on the bottom lol. Note to self read the dates on posts!

No I didn't lol oops! It came up at the bottom when I was replying to the main pregnancy and slimming world thread!

My Midwife told me pregnant women arent alloud to eat whippy ice cream or mc donalds ice cream as it carries listeria?

Dear Jammie Dodgers, Why cant you pull apart neatly so i can get to the jammie goodness inside without getting covered in biscuit?

I'm sorry i'm not help on the motivation front - i just spotted the jammy dodgers which means I HAVE to eat them with a cup of tea! :break_diet:

http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world/159257-pregnancy-slimming-world.html this is the main pregnancy and slimming world thread, all of us are pregnant and following slimming world, you get 2 HEXA's and 2 HEXB's extra if you are pregnant. xxx

I'm losing weight whilst pregnant but they say you tend to maintain or gain in the last 3 months. its only an extra 200cals a day baby needs in the last trimester hun not an extra 500! thats way way too much and you certainly dont need to change your eating habits until the last trimester! -...

You've done tea ready for tonight staff in the slow cookery because your nice like that and it smells amazing so your a bit gutted your leaving at 3 lol x x x

That's why I put the + :) I know someone who lost 2 stone 4lbs but if I say a stone + I'm not getting too excited about a huge loss lol X x x

Mine was 37 when I found out I was pregnant, I've lost 6lbs so I'm happy but even if I maintained throughout my pregnancy I would be over the moon as you can lose a stone + after the birth lol X x x

Yeah they do like to have actor/singer/dancer/presenter plus cleaning, childcare, bar work - they like to be able to get you to do anything basically. I also worked for Thomas cook as stage presenter/show team in Cyprus and ibiza and when I auditioned I said I don't want to do the shows just...

I was going to say exactly the same thing, a stone for someone with a healthy bmi is perfect, my cousin has also put on a stone by 22 weeks and she had a bmi of 23 its brilliant. Weight loss during pregnancy is only recommended to women with a bmi over 30 by their midwifes and you are...

I worked in Tesco whilst I did my A levels I enjoyed it, it was easy money for a relatively no hassle job and meant I had money banked for uni! Then at uni I was a butlins red coat, a pontins blue coat and a Haven funstar and we all know what people think of those jobs (its all true lol) but I...

Dyjhiw you know the girl who did the sleep in last night hasn't changed the bedding for the person doing the sleep tonight seeing as your doing the washing and :o no bedding ... and she's not the cleanest person you've ever met! In future I will be bringing my own bedding to work, this girl is...

Got the funny taste in my mouth thing back its so gross! X

Hair Stripper always turns peoples hair a ginger colour I've only seen it work at a salon - I've never done it though lol x

Dear my sisters friends. Stop being so selfish I'm fed up with the lot of you! I've already pushed the hen do back to June for the benefit of you moaning lot regardless of the fact I will be 7 months pregnant but now your moaning because its a coach trip to London for a show dinner and dance so...

Lol that's ok then :D X x x

Iquick question, I'm supposed to be going to watch steps in April. Will I still be ok to go or will the noise be bad for baby? X x x

Never had that problem my SIS is a dance teacher and the biggest she's ever gone is a 12! My mum has always been an 18 since having me. And she was the one who would say go get ... from the kitchen, then when she ate one I had to have one! She made me fat then I went to uni and discovered...

Lol 3 of each would be nice but if you had have asked your midwife 25 years ago they would have told you to have a mars bar and a pint of Guinness lol - that's what my mam was told to do Haha. X x x

It is 1 extra of each when your pregnant but when your breastfeeding its just A's, 5 for the first month 4 until 3 months then 3 until your start weaning then once completely weaned back to normal. My leaflets the new 2012 one. It doesn't mention having an extra B anywhere during breastfeeding...

Yeah I asked my mum if I looked fat once she replied of course you do your a size 18... pot. Kettle. Black! X x x
