I really just cant get into it either dont know what is stopping me!

Well it fits but I am not comfortable in it so want another 7lbs at least off. Completed the race for life yesterday and hitting the gym this evening after work, I am determined to be comfortable!

Same position as you got a new role in work and just trying to work out what I am meant to be doing and what I have to hand over to others. Dress fitting on Sunday and I am so not happy with my progress.

Hello all its got very quiet on here! I have had a mad week or two. Got a new job so really busy trying to hand everything over on Friday, got the dresses from the shop on Saturday and fund raising for the race for life and I still managed to lose 2 lbs!

Thanks Chapmaf, I am back on track and I even went to the gym last night although I felt like it was my first night back!

I am self destruct this week! Ate all in sight on Tuesday and last night ended up going out after work and having a bottle of wine and sharing platter which was not slimming world friendly :cry: I need to get back on track time is running out for the wedding!

Well I am still alive, just! And damage has been done 4lb on but I enjoyed every second of putting it on there now its time to get it off again!

Well I am heading on the hen weekend tomorrow so there will definitely be damage done!

Woohoo delighted with another 1.25 lbs off! all this exercise is paying off!

Starburst I am about to get weighed in work I am not looking forward to it, pizza was on the menu on Sunday night plus lots of wine over the weekend, wish me luck - I can only pray for a .5lb loss :cry:

Back to the gym after the bug last night and really pushed myself feel better for it this morning, going tonight again!

Keep the faith Chapmaf! After our fun filled weekends we will like be on here crying about a gain :cry: I cleared my wardrobe out the other night, a pile of clothes that are far too big, and I filled a suitcase with clothes that are just that little bit tight at the minute and most of them...

We are heading to Derry/Londonderry on the 10th May so I got all my outfits sorted at the weekend - all very close now!

Well I have had 5 days of no exercise as I have been hit with the dreaded bug! Getting back on the horse tonight with a visit to the gym and possibly the shred afterwards.

Oh an excuse to go shopping love it! I was very pleased on Saturday as I was able to pick up 2 dresses, 3 tops and a jacket from Primark (I'm on a budget due to hen do week after next)! Normally I have to try everything on in there but I just grabbed and everything fitted, I was delighted.

I am surprised to have another 1lb off this week after drinking my bodyweight in wine and vodka and redbull on Saturday night! I need to get back on the exercise bus though, I have had 4 days of none whatsoever so back to the gym tonight!

HEB = All bran and banana HEA = Semi skimmed milk

Well ladies I have decided that the shred and the gym on the same day do not mix so I will be doing day about. Went to the gym last night and spent a good hour there so shred this evening when I get home from work!

Well I have managed to keep the eating side of things within syns although with all the additional exercise I could eat a horse! On Tuesday night I had half a Frittata for my tea and an hour later I was so hungry so I had enough syns left and made myself sw chips with mayflower curry sauce, hit...

HEB = All bran golden crunch HEA = Half of milk allowance and the other half Low fat cheese maybe or rest of milk in a pasta n sauce with the water

Day 5 of the shred completed last night Emmylc! Going for day 6 and the gym this evening! Will also be having a look at the lunges challenge later.

Cheers for the pep talk Emma! Can someone share the 30 day squat challenge details with me?

Body won, there was a day off from body magic yesterday and I have to say it was welcome, but back on it today and hitting the gym after work then the shred when I get home. No excuses dinner is already made and all housework sorted so just need to get stuck in and on with it!

HEB = All bran golden crunch HEA = Half of milk allowance and the other half Low fat cheese

Well done Starburst!!:553: I had to take a night off last night was dead on my feet so went home and made a frittata and a strawberry roulade (sw of course) and chilled out in my onesie and watched 3 episodes of Dexter it was bliss! Back to the gym and the shred tonight. I am enjoying the...

Hi all going to join your thread for some motivation. Started the gym last Tuesday and also went on Wednesday then started the 30 DS on Thursday. I have done the shred for 4 days now and am going to try to do it in the 30 days but my body may just have something to say about that!! Went to...

HEX B = 2 slices of WW bread (sausage sandwich with sw sausages yum!) HEX A = 40gs of Low fat cheese with my tea

Good luck for the weigh in tonight! We just had ours in work and I lost 3.75lbs I am delighted! I am sticking with the shred dvd but oh my does it kill!! Went to the gym with my boyfriend yesterday and he said he was impressed, thought I went and fluffed about! what would the point in that...

I started the 30 day shred last night and I tell you I felt it afterwards! Had to get into a hot bath and soak for about 20 mins. This morning I am sore but that good sore where I know for once what is causing the aches and its not just down to being fat! 3 full days on plan and I am really...

Well 2 full days back on plan, gym on both days and apart from aching a little I am all good. Found the cure to my sleep problems as well as I have slept like a baby the last 2 nights!!

It's a 20 minute workout for 30 days in a row, the lady Gillian from the american biggest loser is the trainer. You do 10 days at level 1, 10 at level 2 and 10 at level 3 apparently you can potentially lose up to 20lbs and high inch loss as well but I have heard its tough going!

Well I was naughty at the weekend and paid for it with a 3lb gain, was that annoyed I spent an hour in the gym last night and I have another hour planned in tonight and a circuits class on Friday morning at 6.45:eek: I hope I make it into work after that one. Just gave myself a good talking too...

Well I had another 1/2 lb on so really need a boot up the backside this week and I am determined to do it! I have been called to my doctors for thyroid tests on Friday following blood tests what can they do other than blood tests?

Unexpectedly ended up with my boyfriends kids this weekend so my evening of DVD in bed was ruined:cry: so this is when I confess that I am having a takeaway tonight and to pot with being good! It's like I was saying life gets in the way lol

I just got into this zone last week and stayed in by the skin of my teeth this week, why do we do it to ourselves? I need to start shifting this weight and fast!

Its so hard when life gets in the way or our plans but I have had non stop issues this year and it would be so easy to blame them but I just think of July and me standing in a bridesmaid dress knowing I could be looking so much better so need to keep at it. I too have munchie head on today but...

Weighed in and had 1.5 lbs back on, when I think of the bread and drink and chocolate I am relieved it was so little! Back on plan today with a vengence, think things just got to me, work, home, money you name it really does effect your will power!

Oh ladies I have been a very bad child over the weekend, crisps, chocolate and dips. It all went wrong on saturday with white bread toasted with butter on it and rather than pull it back I just went for it not good hanging my head in shame.

Enjoy your breaks ladies :)

Hi all very pleased to be joining you! Weighed in today at 14st 11.75lbs. I think I will be here for a while but delighted to have dropped into a new stone range!

Well ladies I am off! Just weighed in at 14st 11.75lbs so pleased. Keep up with the good work!

Delighted! Weigh in done and I have lost 2.25lbs! Thats me out of one stone range into another as well. Not the full stone I wanted by this date but still on track for me 2.1 lbs per week target for the wedding :D

Well I am trying Chapmaf! Starburst85 sometimes you just need a blow out! I have my weigh in here in work at 12 and I feel so bloated and heavy not looking forward to it!

Well yesterday was a slightly better day: 1 Slice of wholemeal toast with butter 2 syns Pineapple, melon and grapes Lettuce, toms, radish, cucumber, pineapple cottage cheese and chicken 2 syns Strawberries and a muller light Banana Chicken with green salad and 2 gin and slim line 8 syns

Yesterday's diary Breakfast the dreaded 6.5 syn porridge with milk lunch chicken and salad and some grapes Dinner chicken burger didnt eat the bap and salad. 3 Plums and one chocolate from the hotel room and it was rank!

It really is disheartning Chapmaf :( Now I have ruined my five syns a day with the bloody porridge!

gutted! I wonder is it ok to have as a healthy extra and add 1/2 a syn??

Hi all I have done a search to find the syns in these but the most recent is from Jan 2012 and I know things change a lot. Could anyone look up the syn value of the little sachets for me? Much appreciated.

I wonder how many syns I have been having every day, thats why nothing is coming off!

Oh no, I think I have been eating syns every morning for my breakfast. I have the quaker oats golden syrup porridge sachet but someone has said they arent a healthy extra anymore, any help ladies?

Devastated is not the word, after only the lb loss last week I really went for it all week what was my reward? stay the same :mad: I know I shouldnt have but I then had two bags of crisps last night as I felt so rubbish. I just dont get it so this week I am writing everything down. Trouble is...

Still here ladies :( stayed the same this week! Hopefully move on next week!

I know Chapmaf, was an angel yesterday and so far today! Heading to heathrow soon and I am starving, going to grab a banana or something and have omlette and chips when I get home about 9!

I had a really bad food day yesterday :mad: Started ok with porridge and fruit but lunch was a big bowl of creamy pasta which I know prob had my syns for a week in it and dinner was peri peri chicken with a baked potato last night (with sticky chicken wings and blue cheese dip to share as a...

I have asked before for steamed veg etc with a grilled steak, yes no problem when it arrives dripping with butter!! My new location is going to be tough as well, visited their canteen today all fried food and chips!! Looks like I will be living on muller lights and fruit!

Well done on the weightloss Starburst85, I was giving myself a hard time about the 1lb but its still a loss so I am going for it this week!

Its not work time thats the issue its dinner in a hotel thats the problem (poor me eh). Its so easy to see all the tasty stuff on there and make a mess of the whole week, even the salads they offer are packed with syns. Think I will buy a load of fruit and salad bits from waitrose near the...

Only a 1lb off this week so really need to knuckle down this week. Didn't do as well with my water this week so back to 3 750ml bottles per day this week!

Weighed in this morning and only had 1lb off, bit gutted but if I think back to Tuesday night and the cupcakes and the gin on Friday I suppose I am lucky I lost at all! Starting to travel again this week for work I really struggle with dinners when I am away from home :(.

Gutted that I only lost a 1lb this week, so you are stuck with me for one more week, hopefull!

Just the day we got them and its 19 weeks now until we get them 1 week before the wedding! I'm like you hoping by that stage it will be massive lol. had a bit to much gin last night and craving bad food right now just watched the boys devour happy meals could have easily snatched them off them!

Been doing ok as I say had a cupcake moment on Tuesday night but got past it and been good ever since!

Thats a fab loss, I weighed in yesterday for my first with 5.5lbs off delighted!

I really need to start this as well, spent £15 in tesco last night looked in the fridge for something for lunch today and found nothing. The only spend I will have today will be my bus ticket which has already been purchased this morning!

I am going to join your club and hopefully be in it for one week! I started last week at 15 stone 6.5 lbs and lost 5.5 lbs in week one. I have challenged myself to get into the 14's by next Tuesday. Had a cupcake moment last night but back on track today!

Feeling really motivated today as I was a naughty girl last night. Had my first weigh in and lost 5.5 lbs so treated my self to not one but two cupcakes from Tesco last night, got really annoyed with myself reached for the crisps and thought; hold on are you going to put all the weight straight...

Well ladies week one weigh in completed and I have lost 5.5lbs I am so chuffed with myself! On valentines night I stuck to my syns and made my syn free burgers and then on Friday we went for a nice walk and a swim and rewarded ourselves with dinner out and I allowed myself a bit of leeway with...

Why is it that when something goes wrong and costs something follows right on its heels? My car has been draining my purse since the start of the year and its up for mot on saturday, it better pass!! well 3 days in to going it alone and I feel I have been doing pretty well, here's my diary for...

I am going to see how I get on for the next couple of weeks and if I am not seeing results then I will have to go back and see what can be done for me.

Hi all I am attempting to loss 2 stone by christmas using my slimming world knowledge, but today I was in a hurry and ended up grabbing one of the new WW select range for lunch. I was wondering how I could go about synning it? Any ideas?

Love this forum, was just about to have a bag of these but wanted to check out the syns first. Glad I did need to keep syns for my Chinese takeaway tonight!
