Well this was my breakfast - 3 bacon medallions, scrambled eggs, a couple of tablespoons of baked beans and 2 slices of calorie controlled bread. Also having a mug of unsweetened tea. Need to plan my lunch, dinner, snacks and extra treats for today but off to a good start - and im full!

Morning everyone! I am a returning member to WW. I joined firstly in 2010 and hit goal 8 months later losing 41lbs. Unfortunately life got in the way and I have regained most of the weight, now needing to lose 35lbs to get back to my goal weight. I have tried Slimfast, Slimming World, and...

Hi Ive looked at it online - just rejoined planning to start tomorrow. basically its just filling and healthy rebranded and with a few tweaks. instead of using your 49pp over the week you get 2 extra treats per day. Ive downloaded the app too (there is a dedicated simple start app) hopefully...

Hi everyone! I've been here before very briefly but after trying slimfast and failing because I was starving I'm back on SW. I'm halfway through my third week and already lost 7.5lbs I can't believe how much I can eat! Is it ok if I come back and join you on here? I bought a countdown in...

Oh not at all! Be lovely to spur each other on!

Wow lots of people using ice - never occurred to me to try that! Might make some ice cubes up and give it a go. Thanks x

Hi pink cactus I only started slim fast on Tuesday. Yesterday wasn't too good for me either but today I have been good and tracked everything. Had my shake for breakfast and then hubby and the kids wanted Pizza Hut for lunch which was fine - I had a pizzetta with chicken, mushrooms and red...

Well done on your loss ducky!! That's fantastic!

Hi pink cactus Yes I find MFP very helpful. You can track any activity on there also and it calculates how many cals you have burned. Plus you can add friends and spur each other on. Have to say yesterday I did not stick to plan. I don't know what my problem is but I'm ok til 3pm-4pm then I...

Just a bit of a nosey thread really and wondered how you all mix your shakes? I have a celebrity slim shaker that I bought from Rowland pharmacy which has like a ball inside and when you shake your shake it takes every lump out and makes it very creamy and frothy. Really enjoying SF so far...

Thanks ducky! It's very hard when there's temptation in your way but I'm determined to not be reeled in. Tomorrow my friends are coming round and we are getting a takeout but the takeout we go to does do healthy options like chicken and salad so it won't take me too far off plan. Plan for...

Sounds yum! Will pop to boots and get some thanks for the recommendation x

Went to town got a bit hungry so popped into a shop and got a bottle of water to tide me over. On the way back to the car walked past a subway, McDonald's, fish and chip shop, milkshake bar and costa coffee. Then got in car drove out of car park past burger king drive thru! Needless to say I...

Well here I am back once more on my quest to get back to goal. Lost over 3st on weight watchers but have never been able to get back into it properly, tried SW but that plan just isn't for me. I decided I need something that works, is very structured and doesn't take too much thinking. Hello...

Hi Andrea I started slim fast yesterday - I have tried it before but without success (down to me not the sf!) but back here now trying again. Look forward to chatting with you, M x

Hi all! Im starting slim fast today. need to lose some weight. managed to lose over 3 stone with weight watchers and got to goal but struggled with maintenance so now have put some back on. not quite back where i started but not far off so need to definitley do something now before that...

morrisons NuMe ready meals are currently on offer at 2 for £4. Ive bought 4 and they actually look like you get a decent amount in them. all under 500kcal so room for veg on the side x

Hi!! Im doing ok, had a few moments of weakness but they are starting to happen less and less lol. Today my plan is: B: SF Banana shake S: Batchelors cuppa soup (around 12) L: SF Meal bar S: SF Pretzels D: Asda GFY Chicken in peppercorn sauce and wedges ready meal and a muller light yoghurt...

Day 3 Today has been a bit hit and miss for me. I havent stuck to plan today as rigidly as id like to. But, im back at work tomorrow so i know i will stick to it. So as im working from 7:30am my plan may seem a little odd but here is my menu for tomorrow: B: SF Banana shake @ 6:45am (already...

yep im up for a 5lb loss! Ambitious but doable i think! Monica x

Day 2 Well, today i feel motivated. I went to asda last night and got a few SF bits in, meal bars, SF cheese bite crisp things and caramel snack bars. Ive got £12 or something on my advantage card and i think boots has 3 for 2 on SF so i'll prob get another can of powder in a different flavour...

fell off the wagon.... Hi all! Well, i fell off the wagon, and here we are 8 months later and im hopefully gonna get back on! I had an unopen tin of SF in the cupboard which i kept because i knew i would go back to it, and today was the day for me. Todays plan was/is like this: B: SF Choc...

well i was weighed by my doc yesterday and im the same but i only started on monday and to be fair have been a bit hit and miss at times. Still, i will weigh in next week and hopefully see a loss. My jeans feel looser though so i think i may have lost a small amount of inches but i didnt measure...

Louise im sorry i didnt reply sooner i havent been on since this morning. I was weighed today by my doctor but i think im gonna weigh in every friday at boots because my scales never change no matter how much i gain or lose! Ive got 2st 7lbs to shed and im thinking of getting a pair of fit flops...

Thanks Bookworm! I went to see my gp this morning she weighed me (and im still the same but she told me it is still early days) my BMI is 29. She wants me to see her in 1 months time for a progress update and said SF is a really good diet and one the majority of people stick to. Plan for today...

wel today has been more than ablip it has been a downright catastrophe! After my snack i couldnt stop eatingso ive had a day off and have decided to start a fresh tomorrow. Im not going to let it get me down because compared to what i normally eat in a week so far i have probably eaten half...

well i blew it. i couldnt last without a snack and have had 2 ryvitas with extra light philadelphia (95kcals) for my morning snack. i still need my snacks so im not gonna deny myself. ive already drunk 1L of water today. I know i will end up going over my calorie allowance today when i go to my...

i have 2st 7lb to lose. im a student nurse so i understand the difficulty when working shifts. i qualify in march and i cant wait. My next placement is community so im thinking about taking a shake or a smoothie in the car with me with a bottle of water and then i can drink inbetween visits and...

hi ice magic i havent got a wii fit but i do rosemary conleys dvd 3 times a week (starting this week of course to match my new diet) and its a really good work out. Im hoping that this along with Slim Fast will help me shed the 2 stone 7lbs i need to get rid of!

Forgot to say i also keep my caramel bars in the fridge because i find they last longer. Also if you put ice cubes in your shake and blitz the whole lot up in a blender you get no lumps and its like a mcdonalds shake without the icecream lol.

Icemagic yes i find if i write it all down and dont miss anything out it does keep me on track. When i first started it i thought 600cals for my main meal was not enough i didnt realise just how much it was! Plus the 300kcal of snacks a day really helps. How long have you been doing SF for? If...

Morning all well heres my plan for today: 8:30am Asda Measure up shake (a bit sweet and sickly) 10am No snack 12:30pm Slimfast Chicken and Mushroom Soup 3:30pm 1 apple (48kcals) 5pm: Meal at my Grandmas consisting of a pasta course and then meat with salad and peppers (which sounds...

thankyou BL for your reply i thought i was eating way too much and didnt know if i had to take into account the amount of fat as well as calories but if its just calories then thats great! I like it because it seems that nothing is off limits (well, apart from a few things) and i can eat loads...

thankyou bookworm your hubby does sound fab going to boots for you to stock up! Mine wouldnt lol thats why i did my shopping online! Ive decided on my newbie thread to keep a diary of what i eat and drink ive a feeling ive got the completely wrong idea so feel free to have a look and correct me...

Well ive decided to keep a diary of what i eat and drink on this thread that way if things start to go wrong hopefully we can figure out where i went wrong :) so today i have had the following: 10am Slimfast peach and mango smoothie 12 noon Snack a kacks mini bites (115kcal) 1:30pm Slimfast...

Bookworm i hope your ankle heals quickly. I havent spoken to you before i dont think i only joined here yesterday but thought i would send you my best wishes. Ive just been on the boots website they have 3 for 2 on SF at the mo plus 200 extra points when you spend over £10 so i got a 24 pack...

yep it helps a great deal thanks a lot!

Fab in that case i will make my WI day a Friday so i can at least give myself 5 days on the plan before weighing myself again. Thanks for the welcome!

hi again thats a really good tip thanks i tend to snack in the evening more than during the day. Also, i was wondering if i could put ice cubes in with my shake and blend it up so its more like an ice cream shake without the ice cream lol? Also i know i can drink water but can i put any squash...

Hi all im new to the plan andi know im very late but can i join? I will put myself down to lose 5lbs please (prob a bit ambitious but i need motivation lol). many thanks Monica xx

BL i think our posts crossed! Thanks for your welcome and im happy to know i can have 3 snacks a day i will add an extra piece of fruit to my plan at around 3:30pm. It will mean there isnt too much of a gap between then and my eveining meal! Thanks again! Monica xx

Thankyou very much for your reply. Ive been to asda this morning and got a tub of the chocolate shake, 1 smoothie, 2 ready made shakes, loads of fruit, a packet of chicken and mushroom soup (SF) and 2 of the chocolate and caramel snack bars. I think this should be enough to get me through week...
