I'm fine! Just been very neglectful of my diary, oops! Lost 1.5 lbs on Tuesday yay!

Feeling positive today - always the same after going to group :P Lovely day as well so going to get out in the garden with the kids Breakfast - 2 x weetabix (B) with skimmed milk (A) grapes and banana, cup of tea

Brilliant! Well done you. I have the fakeaway book, it has some yummy recipes x

2.5 lbs off tonight :)

Well done everyone! 2.5lbs off for me :)

I am assuming it is because of my starting weight, for most people it is 5 - 15 syns a day :)

Full fulllll FULLLLL! Just made the chicken and ham lattice pies, yummy but absolutely bloated and weigh in soon :/ Also had a wobble on Sunday, took the kids to the pictures and we all shared a salty popcorn - soooo many syns I had no idea :( Onwards and upwards though, hopefully not the scales...

Best of luck!

Weigh in night, off to group in a sec. Feel bloated and ugh, not banking on a loss :(

Best of luck :) I am loosing weight amongst other reasons to ttc as well, looong way to go x

I am officially obsessed with the cake in a mug! My friend made me one last night and I had one today after lunch, deciding whether it would be bad to have another one now lol. Breakfast - 2x weetabix (B) chopped grapes and banana, milk (A) Lunch - Grilled chicken salad from McDonald's, no...

One of those days today where I preplanned my tea and made with the best intentions thinking rice noodles were free and they weren't. No biggie I guess, I'm still well within my syns, but niggles me just the same :P A - 350 mls skimmed milk B - 2 x Weetabix Breakfast - Weetabix with chopped...

Small world! I grew up in Stockport!

Sounds a yummy day :) Where in Manchester did you go? I grew up there

Hehe :) Yes my two children keep wanting to steal my goodies, horrors!

Thanks guys, some good tips there :) Sunny and warm here today so been out in the garden with the kids, trying to keep busy lol! Weeding, aka standing around with hands on hips thinking and glaring at the weeds..... Definitely only snacky out of boredom, but figure it is better to have something...

Good for you restarting, sometimes that's the hardest part :happy096:

No worries, good luck!

Brilliant please do

Picked up mine last night, looks yummy and it has pizza in it. PIZZA!!!

Morning all :) So, the kids are off for the Easter holidays, I work at the local school so I am off as well. This is where I come unstuck, not having the usual structure to my day, find myself wandering kitchenward just because. Any suggestions of some low or free snackrels I can rustle up other...

Thanks for the tips folks, off shopping soon. School holidays so finding it hard to not pick between meals :/

Extra Easy day today, I can have 5-20 syns per day A - 350mls skimmed milk B - 2 x Weetabix Breakfast: 2 Weetabix with skimmed milk and chopped banana Lunch: Mushrooms, bacon and baked beans Weight Watchers fat free yogurt Hi-fi Rocky Road bar - 3 syns...

Nothing I can think of! Although maybe it's because I haven't ​got a goal in sight, so I'm not putting that pressure on myself then getting into my self-ugh cycle :)

Thanks :)

Well and truly surprised, 4.5 lbs off tonight so managed to get my half stone award and slimmer of the week:scale:

I did as well! 4.5 off and slimmer of the week

Where to begin?! I have been overweight since my early 20's. It coincided, I feel, with moving out of home and binge eating all the crap I had been limited to until now. Then, whenever I got into a relationship, I became contented and fatter. My weight flipped between 16 stone and 24 stone. I...

Hey guys :) Started SW on 25th March due my weigh in tonight. I lost 4lbs the first week but well and truly messed up on Sunday so am not too optimistic! Long way to go too but this time I am going to the meetings rather than doing it from home. :wave_cry:

Stayed the same this week, not bad as I had a night out Friday and recovered all weekend shoving carbs in my mouth lol, plus * week.

It's going ok so far this week thanks, meant to be out with friends for a few drinks and a Chinese on Friday so I'm thinking to have something veggie, maybe chow mein or something

Thanks guys for the welcome and support :) x

Ooh challenges! Yes, I like these!

Hey guys, I am Cery and on yet another attempt to ditch the weight. I have always been bigger than I should be, though when I look back I would be soooo happy to be that weight now! Don't you just love hindsight? :D Anyway, I gave up smoking and met my partner in 2006 and weighed around 16...

Weigh in day for me, 2lbs off :) How are we all getting on? x

We had sausage casserole :)

Hahaha no worries, it's good to have a natter! I haven been trying to loose weight for around 10 years and have set myself goals - I wanted to be slim when I was pregnant so I could have that perfect bump etc - yet these things keep passing me by and I haven't changed. Annoying! x

How are we all getting on? I am doing ok, I am not counting the calories in my meal at night or in my snacks but these are usually just fruit or rice cakes, and it's way better than how I was eating before. I think when the weight loss slows down I will be more rigid - hopefully by then I won't...

You are doing brilliantly!

We can do it!

Well done! I find it so encouraging to see the pounds come off when I am having a hard time, good look for the next week! x

Good luck! Let's hope we can get this board a bit more active too, it all helps x

Hey Kimberley! I am newly restarted on shakes, got loads to loose but trying to shed as much as I can before getting hitched in December (hopefully). Good luck and keep posting, I find it helps keep me going x

Amazingly I lost a pound this week, happy me!

Haven't weighed myself but pretty sure I have put what I lost back on. Back on track today, was sad yesterday as we had to have our cat put to sleep :(

Woop woop, 3 lbs off, 5 lbs in total :clap:

and I am feeling nervous, have steadily eaten a bit more each day. Still stuck to 2 shake 1 meal but yesterday's meal was a BBQ - I had no sauce or cheese and after not having bread for so long felt so bloated! Had one burger and 2 sausages. No excuse I know but I have been running down our...

Thanks for this, I ordered 4 tins online as our nearest boots is miles away, still saved a lot even with p&p :)

Lost 3lbs so far by the way but official weigh in is Monday so we shall see :D

Good luck guys, how are we all doing? I was feeling hungry a lot yesterday but staved it off with fruit, probably takes me over what the recommended calories for doing SlimFast is but surely fruit and low fat yogurts are better than toast, cereal, crisps etc which I would have resorted to before?

Shake for brekkie, shake for lunch with a banana and apple, rest of the lasagne and a muller light for tea I think. How about you? x

Well so far so kind of good :/ I had a SlimFast shake this morning, a Tesco's UltraSlim ready made shake for lunch and a banana, then have had an orange, an apple and 2 ginger biscuits..... made a low fat lasagne for tea

Morning all, back on the diet rollercoaster today :D In the long run, I need to loose half my body weight but short term, I am getting married in December and need to get my fat bum less fat. I figure anything less than I currently weigh is better than nothing and hopefully should see some...

Heh, just noticed I added an extra stone to my statistics, look I've lost a stone already! :p;)

Hello everyone! I am on my first day of JUDDD today and currently have some soup simmering in the slow cooker although I won't be having much as already had 2 Tesco diet shakes :rolleyes: I had two tins in the cupboard which I'm using up until I'm eased into the diet then will start planning...

Hey, I'm new :) Morning all! Quick intro from me, I'm Cery and I am a serial dieter/put-on-weighterer :D. I have been overweight for years but after having children and finding contentedness I have ballooned :( I have toyed with WW and SW this year but just not stayed on track and now I am at...

Hello people! Lost the 1lb I put on last week woo! :)

Can I join too? I am back on the track and hoping a mini goal might help me keep focus. Going to try for 8lbs :) Ailly 7lbs (0lbs lost - 7lbs to go) All_About_the_climb (1lb lost-6.5lbs to go) Ally_Pally (0lbs lost-8lbs to go) Ally89 4lbs (0lbs lost - 4lbs to go) Alyce 7lbs (0lbs lost - 7lbs to...

There's no class in our village, we are out in the sticks a bit :) I need a strict word with myself and stop lamenting :p Been to Tesco and loaded up with tonnes of fruit and veg so no excuses

Stayed the same last week, gained 1 lb this week, though not stuck to the plan at all. Here's to a better week :) Good luck everyone

Argh I am such a fool, why do I do this?! I'm following SW and every time I have a good week - staying on the plan and enjoying it, eating well using my syns etc then have a loss at weigh in day - I blow it the following week. I don't go completely off but I am less rigid about what I snack on...

Have been wondering this myself, I'm a stay at home mum and the other half is a full time (im)mature student so things are a bit tight. I worry I haven't the self discipline to stick to it or will struggle figuring syns out, but it seems I can rely on the lovely forum to help me out :) :)

Hello :) Just wanted to say I used 2 of your recipes last night, for onion bhaji's and curry sauce and they were absolutely delish. Thank you!

WOW!! Well done you!! I have a lot of weight to loose but I can now see a change of weight in that my face looks slimmer and my bra strap is a bit looser

Hey guys, well done to the losses and hugs to the STS or gainers, we will get there together! :) :grouphugg: For me, 2 lbs loss making it a super happy Mother's Day :family2: Star week as well plus had a very naughty day in there too and discovered the choc philly... Good luck to everyone for...

Morning all! Nice start to Mother's Day for me, down to 18st 13lb so I am joining you all by the skin of my teeth :D

18st 13lb at weigh in today so I am off to the next room :) Good luck everyone and see you soon!

I was tempted at one point to go it alone, but I have 0 self discipline so it would never work for me. Online membership suits me as there is no meeting in our village and if there was, I'd need to either drag the kids along or find a sitter, and tbh I'm not great at groups. Also as someone else...

Thank you :) I've sorted myself out but it's good to know that's an option

I've used my b's but have some syns left, will see what I can persuade my body it wants

I've started out on a Red day although I suppose I could make it Extra Easy if that's allowed?

I have this wierd bug the last few days, around eleven I start to feel really queasy and then it passes after a few hours. It's not due to hunger and nothing has changed in my diet. Today I actually was sick and now I just crave bread or bread sticks or mini cheddars. The thought of any diary or...

Interesting to see this thread, I too have been on Extra Easy and found my losses slowing, stopping or turning into gains :sigh2::eek: So I am trying green days this week with the occasional red to see if it makes a difference (also not 100% I was doing EE correctly :) )

Hello :) Just been nosing through your diary and it's very inspirational! Well done on your weight loss so far, hoping to pinch some of your recipes :D

I am guilty of this as well, I weigh myself every morning and then again if I go to the loo after! Silly, and I don't really know what I am hoping to achieve by it but hey ho!

Haha love it, over the years I've tried Atkins, LighterLife and Weight Watchers as well as Slimming World, diet companies must be making millions from me :rolleyes:;) Well done to all those moving rooms, soon be there too I hope :D

Yes please :) Yeah I keep telling myself that better to have lost than to have put on, and that I am doing the right thing! Hoping to find lots of recipes and support and people in the same boat on here too which I'm sure will help

Hehe if only it would fall off that easy. I have a hunch though that I was not doing Extra Easy plan quite right so I have swapped to green and red days for this week to see if that makes a difference :) Also trying to get on my exercise bike when I can :)

Wow 7lb in week one, well done! I'm a stay at home mum as well and mostly am finding it ok to stay on track. I find it better if I can plan ahead although that doesn't always go accordingly with little ones about! The worst for me is knowing I have stuck to it 100% and come weigh day, I have...

Helloooo! Another Sunday weigher here, STS this week grrrr :mad: can't even put it down to bad days or lack of excercise. Ah well, here's to a big loss next Sunday lol. Good luck for the week ahead

Hi! New member here! I started SW at home in January though February was a bit crap and so far I have lost 1 stone, which is great although I am finding my weight loss frustratingly slow. Looking forward to sharing journeys and loosing pounds together! I am aiming to loose 10 stone *gulp* so I...

Big cheering on from this corner, I have about 10 stone to loose and only one stone into it so far, but keep up the amazing work!
