I have had a totally rubbish weekend, all started Friday evening, pigged out on junk and it was washed down with lots of cider, and the theme continued through the weekend. Just felt really down and thought stuff it and totally blew SW out the door. I will get back on track again, just hope I...

Im just 1.5lb off my first stone! Want it gone by wed weigh in! Not any of this 0.5 rubbish either!!!

After a 2lb gain last week, this week it has gone away and very kindly taken 2.5 of its friends with it!!! Bye bye 4.5lb :)

Can I still eat it? Its a SW recipe using natural yogurt, but it split before I put the yogurt in :(

Maybe if I got rid of the winter coat on my legs, I might weigh less next week!!!! ;)

Went to my 3rd weigh in last night and I've gained 2lb :mad: Think it's due to TOTM coming up, and not eating enough. I fell into my old habit of grabbing a yogurt out the fridge for breakfast then having nothing until lunch and then I only had a noodle mug shot or something, then nothing until...

Our SW group has decided to do the Midnight walk this year, 14th July I think, and our C is going to get some SW sashes made up for us all to wear! Thought it was a great idea as the whole group can do something together and share our achievements! Any other group out there doing it?! :D

Fab tips and advice! Thankyou so much :D xx

topped-popper Haha rubbish attempt!!!

I love dogs but with 3 cats and 2 chickens at home, I don't have one! But at the stables where I work we have alot of doggie visitors during the week so I don't really need one. For example there is.... Saffie and Lucky - JRT's Kai and Kaya the Husky's Digger, Koda, Cash and Flint the German...

Thanks for the tip hun :) x

It's coming up to that dreaded time of month where all I think about is chocolate!! It's the first PMT on SW I've had and I'm worried the cravings for junk food are going to get too much. I always get really hungry a few days before and Breakfast didn't touch the sides :( What kind of things...

Not very exciting but toast (HEb) with Laughing Cow light triangle cheese (HEa) and Marmite (free)!! Oh my it was sooo yummy!!!!

I just bought the Michael Jackson Experience game as I'm a huge fan, and thats GREAT fun!! :D

Dance

Ok thankyou! :)

As it says really! I know normal mozzarella is 45g but wondering what light mozzarella would be?

Ooo loving the pancake idea, can't wait to try them!!! :D

Hello!! How lovely it feels to be here! I lost 5lb last taking me into the 16's! 16st 10lb yipee!!! :D

Thankyou! And good luck hun

Hello! I've only just come across this thread but what a fab idea! My hubby is in the Navy and is based in Plymouth. He goes away next weekend, only for a month and a bit but I'm slightly worried about how I will cope with staying on track when he's not here. When he goes away I comfort eat alot...

I lost 5lb this week, and got my half stone award and I was slimmer of the week!! Could not believe it :D Bye bye 17st zone...hello sweet 16's!!!

Woo hoo! Lost 5lb last night taking me down to 16st 10lb :D bye bye 17's

I LOVED IT!!!! It was such a giggle, and the instructor is so lovely, and all the other ladies who joined are all normal lovely people, not stick thin things in boob tubes!!!! Can't wait for next Tuesday! :D

Just make sure it's MEGA hot! :)

Haha!! I will look forward to that!!! :8855:

I will be making sure I'm at the back in a corner somewhere ;)

I will probably come home all happy after having a great time!

Hmm sounds interesting, might look into this :)

And I'm scared!!!!!!! Never done anything like that before and I don't know what to expect. A friend is joining with me so at least I'm not on my own, but I'm really nervous! Daft I know but, argh, I just don't have any confidence right now. :(

I'm not a big drinker either, like today all I've had is 2 mugs of coffee. I know I know that is awful but I don't even think about it as I'm never thirsty :/

It's due to fluid building up around your muscles. Don't worry, it will level itself out again :)

Valentines

Gremlins! ;)

Shopping

God I'm so bored :sigh: My daughter has been off school today with a temp, totally not her fault at all, but I've been gazing at the sun all day and been itching to get out and go for a lovely ride on my horse :( I hate being stuck indoors, I'm such a country bumpkin and love being out, even...

Courgette an Cumin soup. Homemade of course! :)

What are the Thai sweet chilli ones like? I tried the chick and herb and they were awful!!

YES!! It's very very helpful, although the only problem is that the supermarket I do my shopping at has rubbish signal, it goes as soon as you take about 12 steps inside! I must look a right pleb as I find something, then run outside to check the syn value, then run back in again, then I find...

Hi all :) I'm now on week 2, got my second wi this Wednesday where I hope to be in the 16's! I started at 17st 4.5lb. Like most, its the heaviest I've ever been. I did quite well at getting to 15st a couple of years ago by myself, but that was my job doing that for me. Working with 23 horses...

Bread is so confusing! Think I'll stick to ryvita instead!!!! Who knows, it might be quite nice with baked beans and mushrooms on top!! :D

I had bad wind for the first few days, but it seems to of settled down now much to Hubby's delight! Although I enjoyed it as it was payback from all the smelly farts he does ALL of the time!!!! :D ;)

See I'm odd, I find horror films funny!!! Would need to find another reason to go to bed :D

Summer

Failing that I may just have a gin, I hate gin, then I wont over do it!! :D

I'm from the Isle of Wight until I met and married my Hubby, who then joined the Royal Navy and got posted to Plymouth. So now we reside in lovely Devon. Been here 10 years this year and love it :)

I'm so sorry to hear you lost your boy. But how lovely you still get to see your mare. They certainly eat your bank account and social life! I've been around horses since I was 2 years old and wouldn't have it any other way. My parents always thought once I hit my teens I would drop horses in...

Hiya! Your Bucky is stunning! Thankyou for your kind words, my boy never seems bothered about me being a bit over weight! It's just all in my head I think. The photo was taken last summer just after his 19th Birthday, can't believe he is 20 this year, but he still acts like a 5 year old! He...

Well i havn't had any so far this month so yes, January is alcohol free! And Feb I will have a small vodka and slimline tonic! :D thankyou xx

Thankyou eye6769 thats cheered me up :) the steak yes I could of done and as bad as it sounds, not the wine as I wouldn't just stick to a couple of small glasses right now, I know I wouldn't. So for now until I've built up some more will power, the wine is best off left on the shelf! xx

Love that 1lb of fat pic. It's actually quite alot when you see it like that.

What size glasses are those hun?

We've just been to Tesco and I think it's more habit because it's Saturday evening but all I wanted to do was get a nice rump steak, a couple of bottles of wine and some nibbly snacks. It didnt help that hubby shoved a box of cream eggs under my nose either :mad: Now we are at home, I'm sulking...

They are arn't they?! :rolleyes:;)

Cheese!! Sorry lol :D

Yes they were actually. And I've always been very fussy when it come to sausages!

Knee's!

1) Walking into a SW group and signing up all by myself. Seems pretty norm but not when your scared witless and have zero confidence! 2) Day 10 and been 100% :D 3) Bought Hubby and Daughter Friday night pizza and garlic bread, and I made syn free spicy bean burgers and chips! And NO...

Its says 65% pork. And on the allergy advice thingy it says contains Wheat Gluten and Sulphites. Hope this helps :)

Late breakfast of 2 poached eggs, lean bacon, grilled mushrooms and tomatoes, and 2 (whispers) weight watchers sausages, 1.5 syns each! Total syns for a cooked brekkie, 3 on EE!!! :D

Yay it worked!! By the way, I was just about to do my dressage test, so got a weird nervous smile going on haha!!

Lets try this.....

Potato Sorry...im bored!!

Life (as in love life)!! :)

Hello!! I would love to post pics and show him off! How do I do it?!!! xx

Someone at group was saying they were having tummy problems. Cramps and things, and it is just due to the massive change in diet. Years and years of bad eating is just working its way through, like a colonic!!! It will settle down soon. But keeping a food diary is vital as you can work out what...

I know! It goes to show how it all adds up, and how fast!!

Ooo I've lost one and a half human brains!!! :D

I have a gorgeous 17.1hh Dutch Warmblood, chestnut called Lukey. I've had him 2 years this March. I gave up riding him before xmas as I felt that I had put on so much weight, it wasnt fair for him to lug me around. He became my giant dog and I was walking him out in hand. But Tuesday this week I...

Dear Work buddies Serving up my old style coffee with 2 sugars in it and saying oh one cup wont hurt will NOT make me drink it anymore. Not only is it vile but sugar is a pointless waste of syns. Also sitting there scoffing choccie bikkies and then repeating have one, again one wont hurt and...

Oh definatly!! ;)

Yipee! Well done, I lost 3.5lb in my first week too!! :D

How much super free food are you eating? Try filling up more on those and see if that helps. :)

Yay I lost 3.5lb too in my first week! Well done us hehe!! x

Wow thats fab! Well done hun :D xx

The lemon one is very refreshing in the mornings!! :D

Who'd of thought Poo would be such an interesting topic!!! But it's nice we share EVERYTHING on our weight loos I mean loss journey!! :D During my first week (last week) I was going lots! Sometimes twice a day, and one day I went 3 times! :eek: But I guess it was just all the rubbish coming...

I too had a headache during the first week, and I felt a bit sick and broke out in spots! Im 31, too old for zits thanks! :D but I'm on week 2 now and I feel lots better, I'm sleeping at night and no longer have heartburn!

Everytime I shower I wash my hair in shampoo which says for extra volume and body, this then runs down my body making the rest of me have that extra volume! So from now on I will be showering in washing up liquid as that says removes fat hard to shift!!!!! :D

After seeing this post and also feeling a bit dissapointed after only losing 3.5lb on my first weigh in, I've decided to use some more of my syns. Last week I was only having 3 at the most. So I've just treated myself to a Penguin bar and blown 5.5!!!! :D it felt naughty, but I have to tell...

Since starting SW I have taken a look at my old diet, and the things that I loved to eat. I would quite often pop to macdonalds as it was quick and also good hangover food. I always had a large big mac meal with strawberry milkshake......78 SYNS! Its that time of year when easter stuff hits the...

Maybe I will do a few green days this week, see if that boosts it a bit. One guy lost 8lb in his first week, and another lady lost 7lb. Maybe I should stop paying attention to other peoples losses and concentrate on my own!! But I too have NO problem gaining a few pounds too! :mad: But stick at...

I lost 3.5lb I am pleased but can't help feeling slightly annoyed with myself deep down as other first timers have lost alot more in their first week. And I know it's stupid as I still lost and that but was hoping for a bit more! Will slap myself for being silly haha!! ;)

Fake-o-marg! Haha like that!! :D

I have microwaveable frozen in a bag rice and also dry boil in a bag rice, are they still syn free on EE? xx

I was starting to get peckish, and when that happens I usually grab something naughty out the fridge/cupboard, but not anymore! Anyhoo, I used 2 slices of wholemeal bread from a 400g loaf and used that as my H.E B, then spread quark on it instead of butter, then a bit of Marmite! It was yummy...

Hello! Hi there! I'm Nay, (short for Naomi)! I joined SW last Wednesday and cried when I stepped on the scales, but left the group feeling that I could turn my life around and get back to how I was 10 years ago! Day 5 of week 1 and I am loving the new food and I feel so much better for it...
