This is false. They are 2.5 syns each

But you're not following his program...you're following SW...and hes using your pictures to show off weight loss. I'm sure his "bootcamp" helped but the poster makes it seem like you lost all of the weight/inches because of his bootcamp, which simply isn't true and is false advertising IMO.

That seems like such false advertising. I feel sorry for the people he is ripping off since you are doing SW along with his program.

3.5lbs off today :D out of the 14 stone bracket...great start to June! :)

3.5lbs off today, I am now 13 stone 12lbs so no longer in the 14s. Good luck to all of you and see you in the 13 group soon x

Weigh in this morning, lost 2lbs :) 30/05/2012 (green day) Breakfast: two slices wholemeal bread (heB), 20g reduced fat cheddar (heA), small glass slimline milk (heA), 2 slices quorn ham Lunch: alpen light (heB), 1 slice of WW wholemeal bread (heB), 1 laughing cow light cheese triangle (heA)...

Got my club 10 and stone and a half awards today...so my next goal is 2 stone off :)

2lbs off today :)

Lost 2lbs this week, now i'm 14 stone 2lbs...can't wait wait to get into the 13s, its so close now :)

I had them every day (I think) last week and still lost 2lbs..I wasn't synning them because they came up as free in the calculator for me..I'll have to dig out a box and re-check later x

When I put nutritional info for the frozen quorn bacon style slices, they come up as free?

Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, i'm still on track but just been so tired most nights that I didn't want to come online and fill out my food diary lol. Anyways I lost 2lbs at weigh in this week :) Very happy about that. Tonight I had my first takeaway/chinese since I began SW 7 weeks ago...

I usually have some on a cheese toastie, its nice!

#Would they taste different then? I love the taste of jalepenos but the taste of green chilies is not so nice to me!

I bought it, it's really nice on chips but I use a little bit on quorn fillets too and it's lovely

Nah they taste completely different to me! :(

Havent tried them yet because I havent been able to find jalepenos anywhere :(

Down 2lbs today, very happy with that :) Any loss is a victory to me!

Just back from weigh in, down 2lbs this week so now 14 stone 4lbs...can't wait to get out of the 14's, hopefully it won't be too long!

Sorry I should have mentioned I don't drink fizzy pop/soda/whatever you want to call it because they're unhealthy and full of sugar and other unhealthy things! Would rather stick with juice x

They're on the SW site as I looked them up last week. On my phone now so can't check but I think only one of the fat free ones is 0 syns :(

Even if you have not lost, just put it behind you and start fresh. x

Yeah I was a bit shocked because it was my first week and it was a cadburys creme egg easter egg....those are probably one of the highest syns available! That put me off completely!

I never buy the raffle tickets and I always feel bad about it. Like the woman who collects for the raffle looks down on me coz I don't buy them. The week I joined the prize was an Easter egg...It was Easter week but I just thought that was a horrible prize. Last week was a grocery shop voucher...

17/05/2012 (green day) Breakfast: two slices wholemeal bread (heB), 2 laughing cow light triangles (heA), spaghetti hoops Dinner: 2 quorn fillets cooked with spices, chopped up & put into a weight watchers wholemeal pitta (5.5 syns) with lots of onion Tea: 2 slices wholemeal bread (heB), low...

I log mine every day. I use it to log my exercise too, that was actually what I joined for initially but it's handy because I can log food on the go then update my food diary on here at the end of the day without forgetting things. I'm usually 850-1300, it really depends and can vary a lot...

Donna I usually have two alone (with some onion and peppers on the side) they're like the normal quorn fillets that come in bags of 7..very filling! If you were having one I'd probably have something else small with it but two are plenty x

16/05/2012 (red day) Breakfast: WW petit pain (heB), 1 laughing cow light triangle (heA), 1 linda mccartney sausage (0.5 syns), 2 pieces of quorn bacon Lunch: cheese toastie (heA & heB) Dinner: harvest morn orange and chocolate bar (3 syns), hifi peanut bar (6 syns) Snacks: velvet crunch (4...

Glad you enjoyed, im addicted to them lol

Beginning to regret telling everyone in my group about my find of weight watchers petit pains in a local shop...theyre out of stock now and don't know when they'll be getting more :( They also seem to have stopped selling WW crisps and I really loved the crinkle ones :( I went to 4 different...

Thanks everyone...I am really glad that I can help motivate people :) another 2.5lbs off today and im now on the lower half of 14 stone (14 stone 6lbs) xx

Lost 2.5lbs this week :) good luck everyone else who weighs in today x

Lost 2.5lbs at weigh-in this morning :)

2.5lbs off today :) now im on the lower side of the 14's...woo hoo :D

I don't really drink often only on special occasions but it's my birthday next month and I'm going to a concert. I'll probably eat a big lunch that day using as little syns as possible, and save my heBs to bring cereal bars to snack on (I'm travelling to another town and staying overnight) but...

Does anyone have any low syn/syn free recipes for garlic bread? Maybe using ww petit pain? Thank you :)

Okay so the reason our consultant counts a 60g pitta as healthy extra is because it says 60g of wholemeal bread and pittas are considered a bread item. I've said the nutritional info would be different but I'm leaving it at that as I don't want to seem like I'm questioning everything..but I'll...

I'm not bothered personally like it doesn't affect me because I've been counting mine as syns but apparently they talked about it in class which means loads of members in my group are probably having them as healthy extras and unknowingly eating syns!

I sent my consultant a text and she's saying 60g any unbranded wholemeal pitta as heB.....confused

This defeats the whole purpose of extra easy and how it works... The super free foods are supposed to be on your plate so you have smaller portions of everything else....

I think you can get them on eBay but they're probably at a high markup. I have only tasted the peanut ones but really like them!

Forgot to mention but the pittas she used are just a local brand here, not asda or co-op...

I went on my groups FB page and one of the members posted her pitta bread pizzas claiming they are syn free because she used wholemeal pittas as her heB...and I said it has to be asda or co-op (as ive read on here) and she says any pitta can be used so long as its 60g/wholemeal...is this true...

Didnt eat much all day due to being sore after dentist (when the numbing injections wore off I was in a lot of pain!!) but managed to eat a bit this evening thankfully. 14/05/2012 (red day) Breakfast: WW petit pain, laughing cow cheese (heA), slimline milk (heA), linda mccartney sausage (0.5...

Oh and I have to get two fillings on my back teeth at the dentist tomorrow :( if anyone has any suggestions of what food to eat after I would appreciate it. I don't want to make soup again. My appointment isn't until 12 so I'll try have a big breakfast (maybe heB roll/sausage and fruit) which...

Okay just had an Alpen light bar (3 syns) half a WW wholemeal pitta (2.5 syns) and 1-3/4 laughing cow cheese triangles (heA) so total syns for today is actually 14 :)

The Italian sausages are lovely, I have been eating them often lately, there's pics in my food diary of how they look cooked. My meat eating family even commented how nice they smell while cooking under the grill! They're very tasty and only half a syn. I bought them in tesco, think they're only...

I haven't been diagnosed but my doctor said she thinks I have it (I was supposed to get ovary scan but cancelled) I find it really hard to lose when I eat a lot of carbs, my losses have been better when I did red days. I exercise every day too which probably helps and is getting me fitter :)

I exercise every day, love it :)

I got them in tesco there's pics in my food diary, they're the same as the normal quorn chicken fillets but with BBQ sauce and you only get 4. Really nice though!

I forgot to post here but I finished the 30 day shred earlier this week. Began "Banish Fat Boost Metabolism" today

10/05/2012 (red day) Breakfast/lunch: 2 WW petit pans (heB), 2 triangles of laughing cow light cheese (heA), 2 linda mccartney italian sausages (1 syn), 2 slices of quorn bacon slices Dinner: bowl of homemade soup, WW petit pan (5.5 syns) Snacks: grapes, glass of slimline milk (heA), crisps (8...

Oh and I forgot to add that this week I started adding in a tiny bit of jogging in my walk! I don't want to over-do it because I know i'm not able to jog much, but I jog 1-2 minutes during each 30 minutes of walking and I really feel like i'm able to go a bit further each time x

Thanks everyone :) Yoyo body magic is just a nicer word for exercise :) Catherine - i've been doing the 30 day shred every morning up until yesterday, since two days after I joined SW. The first week of SW I just did the 30 day shred, no other exercise. The following week I started walking...

How is everyone doing with their losses? I lost 3.5lbs this week. My group leader has been so sweet and helpful to me, sending me encouraging texts about how proud she is. It really helps x

Here I am wearing the shorts I wore when I joined Slimming World 5 weeks ago. They are a size 20 from Primark...the most embarrassing part is that when I was wearing these shorts they were too small for me! I had to leave the zipper about an inch or so down....look at them now! Only 16lbs down...

Nobody has said it to me yet and i've lost 16lbs :( Might be because i'm still wearing the clothes I was wearing before joining SW and they're baggy on me so you can't really see i've slimmed down a bit x

I actually LOVED them lol. The look and texture is a bit weird, but I put them in a petit pan with a linda mccartney sausage..really nice x

Thanks Erm :) think I will just have them as free but I rarely go over 12/13 syns anyways so it shouldn't matter even if they are syns x

Well it's not new but you can have 35g of fruit n fibre for heB, it's one cereal I never get fed up of! :)

No problem! So I have put the nutritional info into the site and it comes up as free... HOWEVER, after looking online the bacon slices I have are described as "smoky bacon slices" which is making me think it might just be new packaging for the smoky bacon slices that are 6.5 syns a box..not too...

Reached my goal (1 stone award)...next up is club 10 :D I need to lose another 5.5lbs to get it (i think!)

My scales broke so I have to use tablespoons for everything..35g of fruit n fibre is 6 tablespoons x

08/05/2012 (red day) Breakfast: hifi peanut bar (heB), 2 linda mccartney italian sausages (1 syn) Lunch: weight watchers crinkle crisps (4 syns) - I had to go food shopping and to the post office so didn't really have lunch! Wasn't very hungry anyways. Dinner: 2 quorn sticky bbq fillets, 2...

Honk..13 syns

Sorry I haven't updated in a few days, I have been feeling so down :( 2 star weeks in two weeks has really knocked me down. Haven't gone walking since Sunday morning :( but I have been doing the 30 day shred which I completed today, and cycling a few miles every day too. Probably won't go...

me too :D its really nice

They aren't either of those :( they were in the frozen section beside the smoky bacon style slices, but these are in a different box and don't say smoky on them so I think (and hope!) theyre a different product

Bought these yesterday thinking they were syn free for some reason but I actually can't find them on the app. Does anyone know how many syns they are (if any?) I know the app says "smoky bacon style slices" but I bought the box that just says "bacon style slices"

Its that time of the week again...the time where I start worrying that I won't have lost anything on Wednesday even though i've stuck to plan 100%! (doesn't help that star week began again Friday even though my last one ended monday :()

My local tesco have them

I am just wondering if anyone else had changes to their star week when they lost weight? I've lost 12.5lbs in a month, but I didn't think that would affect it..however my star week ended monday and began again last night! Its always fairly regular so i'm not sure if its just related to weight...

Yes you can have 35g for heB

scarybush I would also recommend a trip to a few shops. Fruit/veg...sometimes the deals in Dunnes or Tesco can be better than Aldi from my experience. Shop around for the best offers, don't buy things (especially fresh produce that will go off in a few days) just for the sake of buy one get one...

Hey everyone, hope its okay if I join in :) was a part of the 15-14 thread but today I weighed in at 14st 12lb so I am going to join you all here for a short while (well I hope its short!!) x

Ooh fingers crossed it will be the same in my group! I don't mind about the fruit (I probably wouldn't have took it anyways - I wouldn't feel comfortable eating it and rather buy my own!) but I realllllly want the sticker hehe x

I have now started using laughing cow triangles to replace mayo! I had a pitta yesterday and spread some LC triangles on it, then put in my fillings..was really nice :)

Ooh I see. She just said "just wanted to tell you what an amazing job you're doing - you were our slimmer of the week last week and unfortunately the group were not able to share your sucess :(" and then asked if i'd stay to class more often..

My C text me to say I got slimmer of the week but I didn't stay to class so I didn't get a sticker. Will I get it next week? Sorry if this is a silly question

Ah thats understandable! I think i'll wait until I get the bulk of my weight off and then set my target when i'm around 9.5/10 stone. I *think* my target will be 9 stone but its hard to know for sure until I get closer to that weight, I have a lot to lose first! x

Aw thanks, what mostly keeps me going with my exercise is checking my weight on the scales! I wasn't going to bother walking this morning (it was cold and windy out...plus i was tired lol) but then I checked my weight and seen it up a bit so I went for my walk. I know deep down its not a real...

Guys to add yourself or modify your weight just copy and paste..use the buttons on your mouse to highlight the last post with everyones name and weights, then right click "copy" then go to the quick reply box, right click -> paste, then modify your weight/add yourself :)

I am a serial weigher although I only weigh myself once a day, usually in the morning. Noticed i'm about 3lbs heavier today, don't think its a real gain as I stuck to plan 100% every day, but it still encouraged me to go out and do some body magic. Went for a 2 mile walk at 6.30am and now i'm...

If you pick a target, can you change it later? I have never been smaller than a size 12/14 (11/12 stone) but I know I need to get smaller than that, but exactly how much is hard to tell. I think 9-9 1/2, but if i'm happier with a higher or lower weight, can I change my target?

27/04/2012 (green day) Breakfast: Bowl of chopped banana with blueberries, chocolate and fudge alpen light (heB) Lunch: Two slices of ww wholemeal bread (heB) with 2 triangles of laughing cow light cheese (heA) Dinner: Pasta with a fat free yogurt sauce I made, and garlic, onions, garden peas...

Instant mash (smash) original is free on green and EE. Thanks for all the ideas everyone. Tried them before on scan bran just I just hate scan bran. I'm currently using them on toast (heB) or sometimes with quorn chicken dippers, burgers, etc.

26/04/2012 - (green day) Breakfast: Hifi peanut deluxe bar (heB). Just bought these at class this week and they are yummy! I love peanuts so I am glad I can have my little "fix" as a heB. Dinner: 2 slices WW wholemeal bread (heB), reduced fat mozzarella cheese (heA), quorn quarter pounder...

Theyre not in my book either :/ my local tesco doesnt sell much WW stuff so i'll have to buy it from poundland anyways

If it was just one slice I think you mightn't have to count the 5 cals, but since you're going to have multiple slices I would count them just to be safe!

All of the healthy extras are explained in the yellow book you got when you signed up On green days you have 2 heB and 1 or 2(your choice) heA

Well 7 syns is 140, 145 cals would be 7.5 I'd imagine.

Well done!

Hope this doesn't sound mean but considering you only have less than 2 stone to lose, 6lbs in two weeks is VERY good. I have 6 stone to lose in my first week I lost 5.5, 1.5 in my second and 3.5 in my third.

Just wondering if anyone who has lost a lot of weight with SW found the "check my progress" page to be accurate? My predicted progress says I will reach my target at a date im very happy with, but im not sure if I would be getting my hopes up to think its realistic?

I joined 3 weeks ago and our consultant didn't weigh us new people either..I haven't seen her do it with the new people since then either. At the end of class the "newbies" go up and get weighed by the weigh in lady.

Thanks Ian, I love SW chips so will look for those trays the next day! Not a fan of milk/dark chocolate but I like white chocolate..might get the milkybars to have as a treat x

sorry wrong post have reported it

I think red days and exercise boosted my weight loss this week! I did 3/4 red days and I started walking between 2.5 and 3.5 miles every morning before doing my 30 day shred dvd (i've been doing the dvd since I started slimming world) x

Weigh in today, lost 3.5lbs! So happy. Dealz (poundland) opened here recently and I took a stroll in today...so much cheaper than tesco! WW wholemeal bread is only €1.49 (I think its between €2.30 and €2.50 in tesco) Velvet crunch are only €1.49 for a six pack and they are usually around €2.40...

Weigh in today - down 3.5lbs, woo hoo! I really think the red days and exercise helped me achieve such a big loss this week. 25/04/12 - red day Breakfast: 2 slices ww wholemeal bread (heB) with 2 triangles of laughing cow light cheese (heA)...such a simple meal that looks boring but is SO...

Thank you so much! I think it can get a little boring sometimes (especially when i cook proper dishes because I cook big portions and eat it over 2-3 days) but i'm trying my best :D x

Thanks for all of the help everyone! Went and had a look, the store just opened a week ago so I hope they will get more stock but there wasn't many food items :( there was 4 large isles and only one had food (and most of it was junk food!) I did get 6 packs of velvet crunch for €1.49 (vs...

thats what ours is like, I love it and am a major poster on there, drives my hubby up the wall lol x I'm tempted to try and start making our SW page like that but I'm not sure if it will be appreciated? Might private mail our consultant and suggest it, if she's okay with it I'll start posting...

Poundland just opened where I live, i've never been to their stores but read a lot about them on here. Can anyone recommend any things I should look out for that are low in syns? Going to make a trip later :)

My group has a facebook page but its pretty much dead..only the odd person posting about zumba classes etc. The town I used to live in has SW too and their facebook page is so encouraging..they all post their losses and congratulate each other and post tips and recipes. Makes me jealous!

I see a lot of talk about target weight, getting your club 10, etc. but my question is...how do people weighing you know your target or when to give you your club 10 award? I had my third weigh in today and i've never been asked my target by my consultant or the people weighing me. Am I supposed...

Last week 3 "smaller" girls joined our class. None were over a size 10..I was thinking "they shouldn't be here", "they look amazing already", etc. but at the end of the day its not what I think that matters, its what they think and they obviously weren't happy with either their weight or how...

Lost 3.5lbs today :D so happy, I was preparing myself for a gain as its star week and i've been eating more than usual! I really think the couple of red days this week helped me a lot. I have lost a total of 10.5lbs in my first 3 weigh ins...can't stop smiling :) Also switched to the morning...

I think amazon.co.uk has it too, just go on their site and search for the 30 day shred xx

I had my 3rd weigh-in today and nobody still talks to me. I don't mind though. Most of the people at my group are 35+ (with the majority being 45+) and i'm 21..so I understand they would rather talk to people they are familiar with. Plus I have been told i'm not very approachable at first by...

well done! If you gain or sts or even have a very small loss..don't be discouraged! I lost 5.5lbs my first week and 1.5lbs the next... I was upset by the second loss but now I think "well if I had lost 3.5lbs and 3.5lbs I would be happy"...so now I am!

I lost 3.5lbs this week, and now i'm EXACTLY 15 stone! So close to the 14's! Hope I can break it next week....roll on :D

Its an exercise DVD Amazon.com: Jillian Michaels - 30 Day Shred: Jillian Michaels, Andrea Ambandos: Movies & TV

Haven't posted here in a few days but i'm still shredding. I did have to skip it yesterday as I was sick. But I did it today, just had to switch to level one because I have a big blister on my foot and level one doesn't require depend on your feet for as many exercises!

Just had this stir fry...the first one i've ever cooked! Syn free and very tasty.

Had this earlier for my main meal..syn free stir fry. Yummy!

24/04/12 - green day Breakfast: Banana (at 6.30am before my walk) followed by proper breakfast around 9.30am of 1 slice of WW wholemeal bread (heB), 1 laughing cow light cheese triangle (heA), potato waffle (2 1/2 syns) few spoonfuls of beans Dinner: syn free stir fry with chopped quorn chicken...

Looking forward to weigh in tomorrow night..hoping I have a loss (stuck to plan 100% but its star week so who knows) and get closer to those 14's!!

weegirl you can still have bananas, grapes, blueberries, etc. Those 3 are actually my favourite fruits and I eat at least one of them a day. They're superfree, just not superspeed. :)

Im going to try the morning one instead of evening this week (if im up early enough and ready on time) really hoping it won't be as warm!

Maybe my consultant isn't 100% sure (she pushes EE rather than green/red) but I specifically asked her if I could have just one of each healthy extra on green plan and she said it would be better if I had two, but I didn't HAVE to. So i'm going to take her advice as most of the B options make me...

I don't know then..my consultant said so long as i'm having one of each I don't have to have the other two. She said I should try to have the extra B's but its not a big deal if I don't every day. I try not to eat too much of the B choices as they don't agree with me and I get sick, but do have...

I do a mix of green, red and EE. My consultant said I don't have to use my second healthy extras if I don't want to, I do somedays (like yesterday) and some days I don't.

My lovely mom made me a big batch of vegetable soup today! She used 1 1/2 teaspoons of butter in it which is about 3 syns but I have no idea how to go about working out the syns for each portion (as its a big pot and my mom and sister are having some too) so its kind of impossible. Won't bother...

I don't know how to view the whole month on myfitnesspal so I just went back a couple of days and found two under 1000 : Breakfast: 1 banana before my walk at 6.30am, and a bowl of blueberries and grapes at 9.30am [192 calories] Lunch: 2 slices of WW wholemeal bread (heB) & 2 laughing cow light...

I think its anything under 1200 (for women) and probably about 1500 for men...but I eat less than 1200 most days and am always stuffed! If I was eating more than I do now it wouldn't make sense..i'd be eating for no reason. I am following the SW plan 100% so i'm not bothered about my calorie intake.

Hhaha yes - on level two she says "i want you guys to feel like you're going to die" and it fills me with rage because thats EXACTLY how I feel haha :)

Couldn't do it today :( star week began and is killing me. Hopefully I will be able to start back tomorrow. Can't wait to get to level 3, bored of level 2 now x

Is curry powder (like mcdonnells curry powder) syn free? Also do you all blitz it or leave it chunky? Think i'll try this tomorrow :)

They are 1 syn each, I think they're worth it! The Linda McCartney ones taste like stuffing apparently, I haven't tried them yet but I prefer the "meaty" type ones so I like the quorn ones

If it makes you feel any better, I only last about 30 seconds running then I feel like i'm going to die lol! The 30 day shred is hard at first, i'm on my 3rd week and I still take cheeky 5 second breaks quite often during it! I say just do as much as you can and take breaks when you need to, it...

I had to skip the shred today, gutted :( Have really bad TOTM cramps and I found it hard to get out of bed let alone exercise. Thought all this shredding would help with them but obviously not :( fingers crossed i'll be able to get back into it tomorrow!

Hey. I log everything I eat through myfitnesspal, mostly because I like to make sure i'm eating enough protein every day (i'm a vegetarian who hates eggs, milk) I also log my fitness on there. According to their site i'm only eating between 700-1200 each day (the lower end is usually red days...

Can't believe Wednesday is so close already! I have been exercising like mad this week, lots of long walks followed by the 30 day shred in the mornings. Had to take a break today as its TOTM and i have killer cramps, i was sure this month would be better than usual with all of the exercising I...

Love how active this thread is getting, woo :D

honk :)

April 22 (green day) Breakfast: Two slices of WW wholemeal bread (heB) toasted with 2 laughing cow light cheese triangles (heA), banana Lunch: n/a Dinner: SW chips, mushy peas and a quorn chicken style fillet and some melted cheese (heA) Snacks: 2 bags of velvet crunch (8 syns) and will be...

If you were talking to me then thank you. and I know that :P I've had 2 weigh-ins so far

Honk for yesterday, 9 syns

Oh really? Thats a bit unfair that they are expected to pay for them!

I feel robbed now lol :( Maybe they don't give certs in ireland?

No the burger was a Linda McCartney mozzarella 1/4 pounder, i'm vegetarian and those are my favourite veggie burgers. 4 syns for the burger but worth it! :D

I did but it usually went away after I had a cold shower (after doing the shred) I mostly just felt like throwing up though.

Hahah yess! Every time I had a bite it felt like I was eating something naughty..had to keep reminding myself its diet food!

SW style takeaway for my dinner. Yummy!

A pic of my dinner :)

Today, April 21st (green day) Breakfast: Bowl of fruit - pineapple, blueberries, grapes, banana, clemintine Lunch: n/a Dinner: I was craving a takeaway today but decided to make my own instead. Guilt free and tasted so much nicer than a takeaway.Linda McCartney mozzarella burger (4 syns), 2...

Had my dinner already...linda mccartney burger and sw chips.. tasted AMAZING and put my cravings for a takeaway at bay.

They do sound nice but I just want to know for sure if I should syn them before I make them lol

Day 6 of level 2 done today. Starting to lose motivation :( got through it in the end.

We pay €9 here so its actually more like £7.38...kind of a rip off IMO but I need the weigh-ins at class to keep me on track. I know other people are checking my weight so that keeps me motivated. In the past when I did other diets and would be weighing myself..I didn't care about "cheating"...

She had already given it to me when she asked that! Otherwise I would have thought the same. Just wondering though, what are certificates? In our group we only get stickers for awards/SOTW

We would have to syn these as it's not using the food how it's intended, right?

Today, April 20 (red day) Breakfast: 1 banana before my walk at 6.30am, and a bowl of blueberries and grapes at 9.30am Lunch: 2 slices of WW wholemeal bread (heB) & 2 laughing cow light cheese triangles (2/5 of heA) Dinner: 2 quorn chicken style fillets with chilli and garlic powder, stuffed...

I got my half stone award so my next goal is to get my one stone award :D

Level 2 day 5 done :) Halfway there now :) It actually feels like I have been doing it so much longer than two weeks! Got up at 6am and went for a 2.5mile fast walk before doing the shred, I think it made the shred so much easier! Before today I was getting straight out of bed and doing it! I...

Level 2 Day 5 done! Got up at 6am and went for a 2.5 mile fast walk then came home and shredded. Feeling goooood :D

Noooo! Don't take a break! You need to do it every day to get maximum results. I usually got pains on day 2/3 and by day 5 I was fine. Just push through it! Take 5 second breaks if you need to. x

I wonder if the weight watchers wholemeal pittas would be okay to use? I bought a packet of them thinking they would be :( Could I have one and use my heB for it and add on some extra syns? Or will I have to syn them completely...(please say no! lol)

Honk!

I think you should try eating your super free before your meals rather than after? I don't always have my super free on my plate so I was told to eat it before my meals, as the point of Superfree is to limit the amount of food on your plate/that you eat. If you're eating your superfree after...

that really sucks! I miss pitta bread a lot

Hope it's okay to post in your thread instead of making a new one. Does anyone know how many syns are in Chinese chips, vegetable spring rolls and satay sauce?

Today, 19 April (another red day I think!) Eating more than usual today, due my TOTM soon so I definitely think thats affecting my appetite! Breakfast: Blueberries, 2 slices of WW wholemeal bread (heB) toasted with 2 laughing cow light cheese triangles (2/5 of heA) Lunch: 2 quorn chicken...

You are with family and they're munching into a Chinese takeaway.. ...me right now :(

quorn chicken fillets with laughing cow cheese and lettuce

I break my scan bran into vanilla muller light..makes it easier to eat because I hate the taste of it otherwise!

Bumping this thread because I would like to know the answer to this too!

Well done monty!

Thats amazing Elle :) just wondering how long it took you? I have roughly 5 1/2 stone left to lose! x

thank you! x

Yeah it was very disappointing last night! I thought I would have big losses for at least the first month, I knew my first week would be the biggest loss but I thought for the next couple of weeks i'd be losing 3-4lbs! I am more positive today though, glad to have lost 7lbs in two weeks x

Ooh its nice to know someone else had the same losses as me! It was hard on me at first but now im just glad..i'm half a stone lighter than I was two weeks so I shouldn't be sad about that! I do think i'm gaining some muscle from the shred, before I wasn't working out at all, now i'm kicking...

Good luck :) I was roughly about your current weight when I did it last time so hopefully you'll get similar results :D

Laura I haven't checked my measurements this time (waiting until i complete it) but last time, between days 10 and 30, I lost 3 inches off my stomach, 2 1/2 off my waist, I think 1 1/2 off my thighs. That was while not changing my diet but jogging 1-2 mile each day too.

You're welcome :D

So I understand you can have asda or co-op pitta breads as a healthy extra, however I live in Ireland and neither of those brands are sold here. Is there an alternative for the rest of us or would we just have to syn the pitta bread?

Thanks Kim, will have to try that soon! :)

Jaylou I just said that in another thread actually, good thinking! I was upset last night about it but much more positive today. If I lost 3.5lbs on week one and 3.5lbs yesterday, i'd be delighted. So i'm not going to let it upset me! I got my half stone award on week two, i'm eating healthy...

Level 2 Day 4 done. Lower legs are still in pain and I hate the lunges..and when Jillian says "i want you to feel like you're going to die"....I want to punch my laptop every time she says that because its exactly how I feel lol

Oh and thanks for the tips re using things to help my hands! I might try one of those gardening foam things tomorrow. I tried a flat pillow today but it kept slipping :( I have an old yoga mat somewhere but no idea where exactly....maybe i'll treat myself to a new one next week x

Level 2 Day Four done...Oh gosh my lower legs are in so much pain!! Does anyone else have the same problem? I hope i'm doing the moves right!

Down 1.5lbs this week and got my half stone award after two weeks of SW :) I'm now 15 stone 3.5lbs - so happy to be on the lower side of 15, now to get to the 14's!!

Thanks for the nice comments re my "small" loss this week. I felt really bloated last night and got a sharp pain in my side which usually means one thing....TOTM is due this weekend! So that probably doesn't help with my weight, I always go up a few lbs around my time of the month. Either way I...

Honk for today, 4 syns

Yeah other than that I really would like to stay at class, I might try the morning class next week, maybe it won't be so warm then..

Everyone was complaining but she was at the new peoples table so I didn't want to go down and interrupt her, I would have felt rude. :(

I wouldn't mind staying if it was comfortable, the heat in there was ridiculous. Everyone was sweating, I don't want to sit in uncomfortable heat for nearly 2 hours!

Ah bummer :( I was planning to stay to class originally but the room is just so hot (like to the point where it makes me sweat uncomfortably, other people were complaining too) that I just didn't want to sit there for an hour and a half :( The lady doing my weight asked if I could stay for the...

I don't expect to lost 2lbs+ every week, I just though the first 1-3 weeks would have bigger loses (more than 2lbs, less than 5lbs) and then 1-2lbs every week after that I suppose. Maybe I just had my hopes too high lol x

To get slimmer of the week, do you have to stay for the whole class? Or can you still get it if you just weigh in? Just curious, i'm still figuring out how it works!

I lost 5.5lbs last week and only 1.5lbs this week, it really upset me more than I thought it would...:sigh: Has anyone else experienced this? I know you lose most weight in the first week but I thought i'd be losing 2-4lbs a week for the first few since I have quite a lot of weight to lose :(...

Today ( red day ) Breakfast: 1 weetabix (1/2 heB), 100ml slimline milk (1/2 heA), 1 banana Lunch: N/A - didn't have lunch as I had to go to the dentist around lunch time Dinner: bowl of quorn bolognese with peppers/onion/carrot Snacks: 1 bag of sweet chilli velvet crunch (4 syns) piece of...

Well I lost 1.5lbs this week, meaning I have lost 7lbs in two weeks. Got my half stone award also. I am a little disappointed with such a "small" loss (I know, every loss is a good one!) after losing so much last week. I was hoping for 3lbs. I have been on plan 100% and doing the 30 day shred...

honk for yesterday :D

Day three of level two done. Enjoying it aside from my hands being sore from leaning on hard wooden floor for the strength/ab moves

Good luck everyone! Can't wait to see how everyone does this week :)

Level 2 day 3 done. I am enjoying it more than level 1 to be honest :) the only thing I hate is that when i'm doing the strength moves, I have to do it on a wooden floor and my hands get sore from leaning on the hard floor.

I had tonsilitis last week, my first week of SW and I stuck to plan. I think its mostly about your frame of mind. You seem to be doubting that you'll stick to plan in your post because your sick, instead tell yourself you WILL stick to plan despite being sick! If you're sick you probably...

Yeah me too Amanda! In the 6-8 months before I joined SW every single thing I ate was processed. I was having oven chips every second day (at least), frozen pizzas, frozen veggie burgers, lots of bread, cheese, etc. but now i cook all of my own meals from scratch and know exactly what goes into...

Getting really nervous about weigh in tomorrow. Its only my second week and even though I lost 5 1/2 lbs last week..I can't help thinking "its not possible to lose weight after all the food I have eaten!" Hoping for 2/3lbs but any loss is welcome :D

Today..extra easy Breakfast: 1 weetabix (heB) with slimline milk (heA) and chopped banana Lunch: 1 sliced red apple, 2 quorn chicken dippers (1 syn) with a triangle of laughing cow cheese Dinner: 1/3 cup of pasta with quorn bolognese and peppers/onion/chillies Snacks: velvet crunch (4 syns), a...

Level 2 Day 1 done...my lower legs hurt but I enjoyed it more than Level 1! Last time I did the shred I hated level 2 so I was surprised!

I just finished Level 2 Day 1....my lower legs are in so much pain :( I don't know why because I found most of the moves pretty easy and took a few 5 second breathers now and then. Enjoyed it much more than I did last time I did the shred/level 2 (hated it last year!) I think the shoes i'm...

Well its 30 days so if you do it for 21 i'm sure you'd see some difference. It depends on your starting weight to be honest! Between days 10 and 30 last year I lost 2 1/2 inches of my waist and 3 off my stomach, but I was quite big to begin with (15 stone) so it wasn't noticeable to me (I could...

I think they're worth it as a treat though :)
