I think I need a challenge!! So right now I am setting myself a 7lb a month target for 4 months! Will get on the scales tomorrow morning x

At least you pointed everything! x

Thanks ladies! x

This sounds amazing!

What was a chicken New Yorker?? x

The doctor said it might take 4 weeks to clear!! So I am probably best to get back on it. As a lot of damage can be done in 4 weeks. Done an online Tesco shop which will be delivered tomorrow so I will be sorted. xx

I think it's already pointed on a weight watchers blog! x

So ... I have shingles. I have been in an immense amount of pain since last Tuesday and finally went to the doctor on Friday. I am exhausted and diet has went out of the window - I am feeling so sorry for myself. Back on it tomorrow :) x

The hairy dieters cook book is great for weight watchers!! We have had some lovely meals from it x

How are you getting on?

I need to restart too!! As long as you have a plan to get back on it you are winning! x

Huge well done on making a good decision in the cafe x

I agree too. Part of our battle with weight loss is dealing with ups & downs and special occasions. We need to make the diet work for us and as long as you are on plan most of the time you are doing well! Xx

I think you are doing great with your exercise! I used to weigh in on a Friday and it was when I was most successful on weight watchers. I found I would have Saturday as an "off" day and be back on it for 6 straight days. x

The rain just now is awful here (Glasgow) I had to stop at a shop on the way to work on Monday and by new pumps and tights to wear as when I left the sun was out!! I love chicken korma!! Your stir fry shouldn't have been too many points xx

Thank you! I am delighted and the pay increase helps too. The job isn't in the city centre so should actually help with the weight loss as there are no places I can just pop along to grab lunch or Starbucks!! I will need to be super prepared. I will also be out of a job that makes me deeply...

Thanks everyone!! Yesterday was going so well until I received a phone call to tell me I got the job I had applied for!! Bring on the happy eating and celebratory pizza!! Back on track today :) Hope you are all good xx

It is! I can't wait for lunch time. I haven't been weighing myself and was considering giving it a few weeks and then weighing myself. I have a really bad habit of not seeing movement on the scales and going crazy wth food with a "what's the point" attitude. Last week was my first decent week...

Hey - yeh it was lovely. I burnt some of the sesame seeds though!! I can take a picture of the recipe and post it if you like? x

Well done With getting back on it today. I have decided to try and stop the "all or nothing" thing too. I had a lovely day yesterday and happy that I am back to pointing today xx

3 rice cakes is better than 3 cream cakes! Pick yourself up and have a better day tomorrow x

The positive in today is you pointed. You felt out of control but you still pointed and gained control!! Tomorrow is a new day lovey! x

I am proud of myself today. I went to a job interview and I was really upset with how it went. I went to tesco straight after as I needed lunch and dinner for tonight and I just wanted to fill my basket with sweets and I didn't!! Today looks like: B - two slices of toast and butter (6pp) L -...

Never thought of rice cakes for breakfast. Do you find them filling? x

Yeh I couldn't get on today so got out my laptop! I feel like telling you all what I eat is keeping me on track this week x

Spent my last 3pp on a solero ice cream x

It is quite stodgy. I can't eat too early and find I eat at around 10 ish even though I wake up at 5:30am everyday x

Looks great! One of my favourite snacks is ryvita with peanut butter and banana x

Yeh it's that easy. I thought they'd be awful but I was surprised how much the oats had soaked up the yoghurt. I used frozen Black Forest fruits last night so that gives moisture too. Tomorrows is with a peach and passion fruit yoghurt and frozen summer berries! Definitely going to be my go...

Your dinner looked great. Here to subscribe! Need motivation :) x

How did you get on today? x

Forgot to say - today was my first day with overnight oats for breakfast and they were delicious!! I'd highly recommend as I was really full until lunch time.

Thanks everyone. You are all right I do need more at lunch time. Rice is a great idea! I don't have salad in the house but I do have steamed veg packs so will have one of those. I also had a little Morrisons chocolate, fruit and nut mix today that was 5pp for a tiny bag but I had my "healthy...

I just fear of i don't go to classes that I will stray easier. I will give it a go without this week and see how I get on. Today looks like: B - overnight oats with yoghurt and fruit (6pp) and coffee (5pp) L - homemade soup and a little fruit (0pp) D - we spag Bol (8pp) 19/32 I am really...

We should all do this together! I went shopping today and I really need to try. I can't bring myself to go to class though. What's everyone's top tips, favourite eats etc?? x

Still not back on it - I am so annoyed at myself. I just can't get myself motivated anymore! It's bringing me right down :(

Thanks! It was lovely Now for the bad news: I put on 5.5lbs!!!!!!!!! I have been so so so so bad this week. Tomorrow is a new day and I am ON IT!

Hope you had a nice birthday x

Hi everyone! I am still in India but thought I would check in and have a nosey as to how everyone's getting on! I fly home on Saturday morning and after three weeks I am ready to go home. I feel like I might have lost weight but have to wait nearly a week after I get back to go to class. My...

Well done on your loss. Wish I had your discipline. Your pain would have knocked me off track easily xx

Wow - what a week I have had. On top of the stress of going to India and cramming all the training in that I had to do before I went- Royal Mail went and lost my passport. This equaled stress, tears, anger and eating!! Needless to say I didn't go to class on Saturday and ate my way through the...

Well done on your loss!! x

Hopefully everything goes well for you! xx

Well done on your loss! I need to get my butt in gear with exercise!

Hi! It's a SW recipe: 3 tins of Plummed tomatoes 1 chopped red onion 1 chopped carrot 1 chopped celery stick 600ml veg stock Soften the onion in a frying pan for 5 mins and then chuck everything else is. Bring to boil then simmer for 15 mins (I tend to judge this by softness of carrots) then...

I have thought about the zombie 5k but if I was running along at night I fear I would end up genuinely giving myself the heebies thinking I was being chased!

Hope you are feeling better soon! There's nothing worse than being unwell. Take rest and look after yourself xx

It's like a drizzly chocolate. You get it in all the supermarkets at the hot chocolate aisle

Oh my OH made the hairy dieters jambalaya which is 9 pp per serving and amazing!! Would definitely recommend x

Thanks :) I was delighted. So... I have an awful awful habit which I know I need to stop but whichever day I get weighed I always use it as a "free day" I barely track but then find it hard to be in plan! I did ok on Saturday but when I got to dinner didn't track it!!! Why do I do this...

Well done on your loss xx

Thanks for the recipe! I had a wispa incident today too!

Weigh in number 1 and a 3.5lb loss!! Really pleased. Roll on next week x

Your chicken and mango curry sounds nice. Do you have a recipe?

I used to eat this and loved it! I think choc shot is free for 1 teaspoon!

Looks like you are having a good week! What day do you get weighed?

So today was world food day at work which I organised. For breakfast I had a fruit platter and coffee (7), in preparation for World food day. It was the reason I kept my party points all week!! And then it began, I ate... A lot!! But when I think about it, I wasn't really "bad" I had a little...

Hi. I got a 5 point minestrone and bacon soup! It was lovely x

Hey. How are you getting on? x

Today is going to be a toughy. I made one point soup on Tuesday night to take for my lunch yesterday and today and it turns out I don't like it. I don't have anything else I can take for lunch (I buy from a list and never buy extras) and this is a worry to me! This is when I go off track! So...

Finishing day on 31/32 :)

I am really pleased with myself after yesterday! My lovely friend had been at a cupcake class on Saturday and Kindly brought one to work for me. It sat on my desk for hours, I looked at in longingly. So I decided to only eat half and take the hummus and carrot sticks home. I was lovely and...

Another good day yesterday so far my week looks like: Sunday 26/32 Monday 31/32 Tuesday 31/32 I am not intentionally eating less than my 32 but due to the choices that I am making I physically can't eat anymore!! We are having a "world food day" at work in Friday so saving my weeklies for...

I think we might all be a little guilty of that!! I do pro points because I need to learn portion control!! Good luck, noticing this is one of your downfalls is the first step to changing your food relationship. X

Hi. I am a restarter too. Started yesterday, doing well so far. Looks like you are too x

Hi. I have just rejoined WW too! Love your daily menus - getting lots of good ideas ❤️

5% - 10.5lbs 10% - 21lbs Initial goal - 62lbs!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have been here before - actually I have been on nearly EVERY diet thread before and here I am again. I walked away from weight watchers early last year. I didn't think it was working when actually it was ME who wasn't working. I...

Hi all, I have noted where we all are with our summer bodies: Skinnygirltobe: 48lbs to go Sammibee: 33lbs to go Sarahslimming: 30lbs to go MrsMoo: 42lbs to go How is everyone getting on. What's been your favourite meal over the last week? xx

Well done sammibee!!! You're on your way to a summer body xx

Hi mrs moo. Of course you can join us!! Sadly I gained 1lb this week. To say I am gutted is an understament. I have no idea where I went wrong :( xx

Hi Zafira. Yeh I was feeling extremely bloated so started taking some magnesium which just helps all round. I have been in a bit of a huff for the past couple of days. I was good on Friday but not yesterday BUT today is a new day. I am going to try the EESP plan for min, tues, wed and thurs...

Morning all. Still shocked and confused by my gain but hey ho. I need to get on with it. Going to try less SP this week but don't do my weekly shop until tomorrow so today's menu: Breakfast : 35g shreddies (HEXB) and 350ml of skimmed milk (HEXA) Lunch : homemade lentil soup Dinner : baked...

Hi. Thank you! Yep I have been on plan all week which is why I was shocked. I was confident that I was lose. However I was/am feeling really bloated and sluggish which could be due to a change in diet I suppose so might just take another week! I might try SP this week and see how I get on! Xx

Honestly don't know. Left my diary with the leader! New day and week tomorrow - maybe try less pasta and carbs!

I put on 1lb ... I am so upset. I have no ide what I done wrong :(

I put on 1lb :( I am so upset

Thank you! I have been soo good! I have written everything down and not even lied to myself. Fingers crossed xx

Morning! I get weighed tonight and although I have been on plan I am worried! I feel really bloated and sluggish! Think I might try and curb the pasta and potatoes next week but then I am not sure what I would eat!!!! Today's menu: Breakfast: 35g (HEXB) shreddies and 350ml skimmed milk, for...

Add a skimmed starbucks caramel machiato 9.5 syns!! Haven't eaten my crisps though so that's 5.5 syns off. 11 syns for today xx

Due to me having to be super organised for tomorrow and being busy at work, here is tomorrow's menu: Breakfast : 35g shreddies (HEXB) with 350ml skimmed milk, which I'll use for tea too (HEXA) Lunch : homemade lentil soup Dinner : SW ultimate spaghetti Bolognaise Snacks : banana, 3 x...

Sammibee at my slimmest I was 11 stone 3 and that was still classed as "overweight" but I looked great (if I don't say so myself). However at the time I was so obsessed with being overweight that I didn't realise and beat myself up then ended up putting the weight back on!! This time like you I...

Hi Everyone! So this is what my day actually looked like!! Breakfast - 35g shreddies (HEXB) with 350 ml skimmed milk, will use this for two cups of tea too (HEXA). Lunch - homemade vegetable and lentil soup (I love homemade soup!!!) Dinner - SW ultimate spaghetti bolognaise (from the...

So I didn't go out jogging last night!! I am not going to beat myself up though! Maybe I should focus on my diet for a bit and continue with my dog walks. Today's menu: Breakfast - 35g shreddies (HEXB) with 350 ml skimmed milk, will use this for two cups of tea too (HEXA). Lunch - homemade...

Menu looks great! I think I am going to stick to EE for a while as I love potatoes too much to let them go! x

Hey! How did you get on tonight? x

How awful are the 0% shape yoghurts!! I'd rather spend a syn and have a decent yoghurt! Took one mouthful and threw it out - so that's 1 syns back! However, my very good friend brought in cake pops today, I declined but then she told me she had syned them for me (that's what I call a good...

So today's my first day at work since being on slimming world (work is where I tend to go off plan) and my menu (currently) looks like: Breakfast : 35g shreddies and skimmed milk (measured out 350ml to use for cereal and tea) (HEXA & HEXB) Lunch : salad with last nights SW pulled pork Dinner...

I thought the walk would maybe only be an hour. I have a little beagle and have found a group of girls who all have beagles so it's a good chance for them to play!! I am aiming for silver for the fitness thing!! Still a bit confused by it though!

Thank you!

Are we to copy and paste everyone's progress each week or are you tracking it? (This seems like ALOT of work)? x

9 syns today. I am so full from dinner there is no way I will eat more!!

So menu for today: Breakfast - none!! I woke up late and was meeting friends. Lunch - homemade lentil and veg soup sprinkled with Parmesan (HEXA) with 2 x small slices of wholemeal bread (HEXB) and lurpak light (3 syns) Dinner - SW pulled pork with mash (dash of skimmed milk 0.5 syns)...

I hear you with the winding chocolate!! Not sure about SP as I love pasta and potatoes!

I bought a nice juice cup for work - it probably holds around 2 glasses of water and I bought some nice diluting juice. I figure if I drink two cups a day then a glass when I am home that is a suitable increase!

Yeh the fruit and veg is a killer!!

I am trying to stay away from my favourite Diet Pepsi! I bought no added sugar diluting juice so will stick with it :(

I have been writing our weekly menu and then a shopping list so we should have everything we need but today I was picking up 'extras' for just incase like mugshots, alpen bars, a tub to take milk to work in etc etc. At least I feel prepared now x

I have felt this today!! £83 in morrisons today!! There is only me and my boyfriend in the house and that's all of our meals until next Saturday but £83!!!

Good luck in your SW journey. I love this forum. I find posting my daily menu keeps me accountable x

Good luck on your SW journey! I find putting up my daily menus helpful! Keeps me accountable xx

Today's Menu : Breakfast : vanilla miller light with mango and pineapple slices. Lunch : homemade veg and lentil soup Dinner : slimming world Chicken Katsu Curry with rice (HEXB = wholemeal breadcrumbs) Snacks : mugshot and fruit So far haven't decided on HEXA - I'll maybe put some Parmesan...

Extra Easy HEXA - reduced fat cheese 40g HEXB - 2 small slices of wholemeal bread

Thanks! I think my problem is I have never really had big healthy meals. I have always ate rubbish at meal times and continued to eat mini meals / snacks all day! So was just worrying about portion size. I have just written my menu for the next week and I must say I am rather excited! My...

So, today's menu has changed as the days went on and thought I should update it. Today's menu: Breakfast : mullerlight Lunch : 2 small slices of wholemeal bread (HEXB) with a teaspoon of lurpak lighter (1.5 syns). 2 eggs scrambled with a dash of milk (0.5 syns) and three bacon medallions...

Thanks largemarg. Onwards and downwards indeed! Zafira - I didn't know you could buy in advance, that would definitely help keep me motivated! I use tescos own frozen baked potatoes! Mccains do them too but I find you get two really big potatoes and two really small ones! It's 1 syn for the...

Today's menu: Breakfast : mullerlight Lunch : 2 small slices of wholemeal bread (HEXB) with a teaspoon of lurpak lighter (1.5 syns). 2 eggs scrambled with a dash of milk (0.5 syns). Dinner : Frozen baked potato (1 syn), baked beans and 40g reduced fat cheese (HEXA). Snacks : 3 x...

That's a great idea!! I am going to class on Saturday to find out the damage then I will weigh in on a Monday x

Today's menu: Breakfast : muller light orange yoghurt (not sure I am a fan of these yoghurts. They are very very sweet) Lunch : one slice of small white bread, teaspoon of lurpak lighter, scrambled egg with a dash of skimmed milk and smoked salmon (5 syns) Dinner: salmon stuffed with 75g low...

** HAPPY NEW YEAR ** Always a little disappointed when I wake up on the 1st of January and I haven't lost weight! "Clean slate" obviously does not take into account my calorie intake of 2014! I am going to go back to noting down everything I eat and heading to class on Saturday. I have...

Jantastic is a campaign to get people committed to moving in January. I joined the "too fat to run" team - I read all the blogs on there website which are helpful when you want to run but the reality is you can't run miles and miles to start with! I have committed to running three times a week...

What's a countdown? I have offered to deliver some leaflets for my SW leader! Need to get my bum there first though ?

So... The year is ending and as with most other dieters it's "new year new me" mentality! I has signed up for jantastic which is just a campaign to get people moving more. You can commit to running, swimming or cycling. I used to love running! I was the person that ran before work. I want to be...

So I didn't brave the scales yet! I am going on Saturday morning, then will head to Tesco and stock up!

Well done on giving up smoking!! I missed class tonight :( I think there's one on Saturday morning I can go to though xx

I'd like to join too!! Skinnygirltobe - 28lbs (might as well aim high!!)

Going back to class tomorrow! How is everyone getting on? x

Great!! I think I will brave the scales tomorrow night! X

I seen "summer bodies are made in winter" as the headline in a gossip page I read... I think it might be true. I have recently thrown myself off of the wagon and commando rolled down the hill. So, here I am. For now I will call it "damage limitation" and at the new year I will call it "let's...

So... I well and truly fell off the wagon!! Gutted - tick Disappointed - tick Ashamed - tick Motivated... Unsure I don't know what's caused this. Stress - possibly (buying my first home and using an idiot broker) Upset - possibly (Christmas is hard. I lost my grandad last year, he was like...

My week started well and then went downhill: Monday = ok Tuesday = ok Wednesday = during the day ok but the pizza for dinner was not ok :( Thursday = Christmas lunch at work and chocolate bar = not ok I don't know why I do it to myself!

Oooo I didn't think about bolognese with potato! Will need To make some up and freeze.

Well done on your loss and being slimmer of the week!

Going by the book it can be alpen delight or Special K chewy x

What about some of the cereal bars for a HEX B?

Oh will give those a try!! Ended up having a baked potato with cheese and baked beans for lunch. (Cheese 6 syns). I might not have my french fries and keep my syns low. X

It's hard. Plus you have the getting pregnant thing going on. I hope it all goes well for you. That would be a lovely xmas gift x

Just read through your diary! How are you getting on with your weight loss? x

Would love to hear some recipes/ideas you have! x

Well done on your loss so far!! x

Thank you ladies! I know myself I need to track everything and so far so good!! Xx

So I made it through my first week but when I really thought about it I didn't feel any different. I looked at my food diary and thought it looked ok. However my reality was quite different... I am a picker! I think nothing of a little bit of chocolate or a handful of crisps but when I thought...

You both sound like you're doing great!!! xx

I had SW katsu curry tonight too!! Highly recommend x

Finding it ok (till last night)!! My fella made me SW katsu curry tonight and it was amazing!! X

Thanks so much!!! I assume it's syn free on EE? I am new to slimming world so constantly checking x

Hi! Do you have a recipe for bacon and lentil soup? I'd love to have it xx

Hi! How much have you lost so far? I am following EE and see how I feel about the other plans once I have worked this one out. Really hoping for 3lbs this week but not sure what to expect x

Hi. Like a lot of women I have tried a lot of diets!! My list so far has been; lighter life, the Cambridge diet and weight watchers. I did really well on weight watchers and I lost 4 stone in around 5 months. I was amazed but I stopped and gained at least 2.5 stone again. I tried to go back...

Hey Everyone. So today is day 1 of Cambridge weight plan for me. I went and seen my lovely Cambridge women yesterday and was heart broken when I stepped on the scales. I knew it was bad... I didn't realise it was this bad! 16 stone 1lb. My motivation for doing this diet is that I need to...
