Thanks! -8lbs for week one which I'm pleased with. I've been ill the last few days and it's been hard not to comfort my poor self with ice cream But I've resisted. Onwards to next weigh in! How are you all getting on?

Thanks Day 7 today and all good. Bit concerned that I don't seem to be actually getting any thinner I can't possibly fail to though. 600 calories has to have a effect!!

Hi folks. So pleased to find minimins alive and well and people posting here! I'm on day 3 and so far I'm surprised how well I've managed. No temptation to eat yet and not hungry at all. My. Head feels a bit weird and my hands are tingly this evening so hoping that's a good sign. Goal is to...

good info, thanks

i have done a couple of years ago. i found them pretty good for something you can do just in your house. i might dig her out actually.

yep, for 2 days before i am a carb monster. i just want to eat everything in a sandwich. really hard not to cave.

oh that's much better. thanks. i really resent how pants the app is.

yeay! i did c25k this year and was over 15st when i started. i was the same at school, and until approximately april 2012. i cant run! well, now i can! i've stopped for the winter but i was running about an hour straight outside a couple of times a week. starting again in Feb and have a goal of...

whoop :whacky068:

it's hard not to be frustrated and discouraged when you do a load of exercise and dont get the reward on the scales. i started running a few months ago and my losses stopped dead for about a month, and i let it throw me off track with the diet. i kept the running up but stopped bothering with...

:) thanks guys.

sounds very familiar. i've been bouncing round the same 3 or 4lbs for about 5 months now. its deeply frustrating and forcing myself to go to weigh in when i know i've gained AGAIN is hard. i do force myself though, because if i miss a week, then the following week i've still got a gain. and the...

sounds like the PDA thing hasn't logged you properly. she's weighed you and written it down but it hasn't saved the date maybe. i happened to someone at my group, she didn't stay so didn't realise but the following week it had her down as a 5lb loss instead of 3lb because it hadn't saved the 2lb...

hi. can i join in? i'm desperately trying to lose a stone for xmas. 12lbs to go after 2lb gain tonight, grrrr.

Honk for yesterday, and so far today...

honk!

it is so frustrating when that happens. it's half a pound though, you didn't gain, you got a loss, and it's only half a pound away from what you wanted. i think that's a good week. dont get wrapped up in the negative, unless that motivates you of course. it just makes me think 'sod it, may as...

when you've got a really long road in front of you to get to a healthy weight then obsession is necessary i think. i'm trying to get obsessed, it just wont stick :sigh: As people have said the problem is getting to a healthy weight and still being obsessed. i hope to get to goal and then become...

my consultant says she has to be strict about weighing in early because people can't behave themselves, basically. she needs time to get in and get set up, or now that she runs 2 classes on our night she needs a bit of space between classes to go wild and have a wee or something. she said once...

just heard about this tonight. no mention of nominations, just said 'oh btw you need to have lost 3 stone in the next 2 weeks' errr, sorry if we can't get excited about that. maybe if you'd said 3 months ago i might have tried to get myself in contention. i quite fancy £3000! ;) as it is it's...

whether or not children are a problem is entirely down to the parents surely? parents who let their children run about and make noise that disturbs everyone else are just the same as the people who talk and laugh amongst themselves and don't care about anyone but themselves. i don't see the need...

3lb off, thank the lord!

-3 for me this week after gaining 1 last week. it's a bit of a zig zag but it is going!

i'm really keen to get to weigh in today but its not til 7pm sadly. i've been really on form this week and want a result to keep me motivated after a few weeks of 'why am i bothering' hovering.

:eek: a very rare honk from me!

you fill some sheets each week and when you've done the required weeks you get an award. it's not very efficient, we just have to nudge our C and ask basically. there's not anywhere on the website you can check in and get them like you can with weigh ins.

i love pizza, too much. that smash monstrosity sounds like food sacrilege to me. i just use HEX pita and cheese and make syn free pizzas. they hit the spot just perfectly. i'm not fussed about quiche but i would just use syns and have some now and again. a lot of the SW ideas people come up with...

plan ahead. i find it very hard to stay on track when i'm winging it. i write a meal plan for the week (just dinners, my motivation lasts just fine til about 4pm then gets hairy) and make sure i have the stuff. that helps us not go 'ah feck it' and having something disastrous.

i run. one run left til i complete the c25k. it's actually fun now! i'm planning on starting swimming in the next few weeks, just summoning up the courage to wear a swimming costume. i've got my silver body magic. i'm not officially going for gold atm but i probably should start writing things...

i wish there was a food diary on the app. i find the food diary on the SW website a right ballache tho so it would probably be awful anyway. i log everything on MFP and have changed my 'meals' to free, superfree, HEs and syns. works so much better. i have started trying to keep track of syns on...

as long as you're happy with your losses then it's a winning formula i'd say. i try and keep my meals syn free so i can spend syns on alcohol and occasionally chocolate.

well done! chasing you there shortly!

14st 8 now, some progress starting to be made. i want those 8 off by the time kids go back to school. get off me pounds!

-3 tonight, finally got that 2lb gain done and dusted and extra one to boot. phew!

my goal is to lose a stone over the summer hols too. i want 3 gone by xmas so it would be a great kick start after a loooooooong stagnation. we can do it!

i've gone back to wk 7 day 1 this morning as i'd not done anything for 2 weeks after getting to w8r2. was rather anxious about it but it was fine. my legs have ached and ached all week and they feel fine now. i think they were trying to tell me something! i'm also blessed of breast (cursed...

i don't want to be a negative voice but don't want to see you set unrealistic targets that will leave you feeling rubbish if it doesnt happen. i've lost 2 stone and i've only gone down half a size really. 14st 10 now and still an 18/20 from a snug 20. the half a stone per size thing is more the...

hi, i'm trying to break it down into little goals but not been making much progress recently. next goal is 1.5stone award/club 10 (half lb difference) though i've lost 2 stone in reality. i joined SW to keep myself motivated and focussed and although i've not lost anything for a few weeks i...

constantly. totally relate to the 'it's an off plan day! let's eat as much crap as humanly possible!'. i think i'm thinking if i eat it today which is already ruined, at least it won't ruin tomorrow. but of course then tomorrow i'm even less likely to stick to it. or i do well all week and have...

depends what you're after. losing weight is mostly about diet. i am after the complete life overhaul, i want to be fit and active, not just thinner. i've almost complete c25k now and i've not lost any weight the whole time i've been doing it. lately that's because i got the hump and lost...

cottage pie tonight, i make it with loads of tomatoes and courgettes and a bit of chorizo. not had it for a few weeks, i'm excited!

last saturday i went out for 'an hour' and hadnt eaten. 6 hours later i went to bed and dreamt of food all night, first i dreamt we were all arguing about where to get a takeaway for so long that they all shut, then i dreamt that my mum took me to kfc for breakfast (???) and forced me to eat...

it's so true. after a week or two having something greasy makes me feel so queasy. thin friend used to say 'oh i dont like chips/chocolate' and i thought they were just being pious and enjoyed making me feel like a greedy piggy but actually i guess they just mean it! problem is i find it only...

just cash/cheque at mine. you can pay weekly or buy a countdown and save a bit. 6 weeks for price of 5, 12 for 10 etc.

my consultant is excellent. not enamoured with the one who covers but she's ok. mine is not thin, for sure, but she know what she's talking about and still follows the plan herself. she always says the point of SW is to help you reach a place you're happy, not dictate what weight that should be...

-1lb for me, so 14st 10 now. really want to get to 14st by the end of July.

-1lb for me, which is pretty good considering i was only half trying this week and the half that i wasn't, i was eating baguettes and drinking lager :-/ hoping for 2 or 3 next week!

thanks :D it's still a struggle to make it a habit though. i could still easily slip back to a life of slobbing. hoping when i start losing weight it will motivate me to keep it up. i've not lost any weight since i started c25k! which seems unfair lol

i'd like to join please! i'm going for an ambitious 44lbs by xmas. weigh in this evening so hopefully knock a couple off later.

i just got fed up. it took a long time, but i finally had enough of being the fattest person in any room, in my family, at baby groups. anywhere. i put on weight originally because i was depressed. i'm happy now, have been for a long time so it's just ridiculous to carry this reminder of a self...

hello runners! i'm in week 8 now, amazed at myself tbh! i couldnt and never had been able to run when i started. now i can run for half an hour and ENJOY it :eek::D which is just staggering to me. i can't wait to see how much faster i can get as i lose the many stones still needed. atm i'm very...

wow, sounds like you're going great guns. i've no doubt you'll meet your goals. good luck x

amazing. i'm the same height and trying to lose 5 stone. i can't believe you've done it so quickly! well done

at least 4 stone, maybe 5, i'll see how it goes. i'll either be totally transformed and obsessed by then or i'll think that'll do. it's been so long since i was thin, 12 years and 2 children, that i've no idea what's realistic now.

STS for me. bah.

i agree with the theory from travelswithafatgirl. i've lost 2 stone and have gone from tight fitting 20s that were old and probably 22 really to just starting to sneak into some new 18 jeans. i really need to make the leap to 3 stone, i think it would get me close to 16 and you'd be able to see...

i need to crack this habit. i was terrified to get rid of the scales because when my last ones broke i put on 3 stone by the time i bought new ones :cry:but i wasn't going to SW then. i can and should stop it now, once a week is enough. otherwise i see 'ooh, i'm 2lb down, i can eat X' or 'i'm...

i find the only time i can stick to is mornings. i go for a run at 6.30am and then it's done. very occasionally i can do it in the evening, but i find i'm much more likely to either be genuinely pushed for time or too eager to make excuses then. it's tough though because i really hate mornings :D

i'm in week 8 of c25k atm. should have graduated a couple of weeks back but illness forced a 2 week break. running race for life tomorrow morning. bit nervous but i *think* i can run the full 5k now. i'm slow, so realistic goal of 45minutes. can't believe that a couple of months ago i was...

amazing! well done you!

hi. i didn't really get on with WW at all and find SW so so much better, so i'd recommend it if you're not getting on with WW. you've lost 4stone before so you know you can lose weight. :)

Hello, i'm new. well, i registered ages ago but then forgot about it. hoping to stick around this time. i'm 2stone down, many more to go. really want to lose another 3 stone by christmas if i can.

hi, this looks like the place for me. i've been stuck in the 14s for far too long now. really need to break this one!

-1lb for me this week. last week was a gain so pleased to be going back in the right direction again.

hi guys. i'm doing slimming world as well.

Hi. I'm a few months into Slimming World and looking for a bit of a support community to keep me going.

hi, i'm new here. just getting back into slimming world after slipping for many months.
