I think I am an abstainer! I do better giving things up for lent etc rather than just saying I had some last night so I won't tonight! I am currently 2 weeks in to a 10 week chocolate and wine ban. Finding it ok considering I normally have chocolate daily and wine about 4 times a week!

Salt and Pepper chicken and Chips for me! x

Hey! I have just rejoined this week! Staying in on my own tonight with no wine because I am out tomorrow night and have saved syns! That will be a challenge! My consultant was more than happy to help me :) x

So I have once again been on self destruct! I have a couple of good weeks and a couple of bad weeks! I know I only have myself to blame but I don't know how to stop! I am not sure whether my motivation for this has gone! I really hope not! I get weighed tomorrow and I know I will have gained!

Ooh today is the 10k and I am really nervous! I need to stop using this as an excuse to be picking and biting all kinds of rubbish! From Thursday I will be doing 30 day shred again and will have to pin up 'little pickers wear big knickers !!' On my desk in work!!

Hopefully some joes peppered steak and lots of SF

Hiya! Thanks for the message! I went to WI last night and lost another 3.5lb!! Cannot believe it! I am so happy! I havent been as good as gold to be honest so I am worried that a couple of things could catch up with me! Having said that I am exercising so maybe that is paying off! I am...

This is the week I could get in to trouble! Had a very boozy Saturday so yesterday I had some Chinese food! I am determined to draw the line there and be back on it today but this is my biggest danger zone where I end up having a week of eating rubbish! Going to make some joes sausages with WM...

Oh I wouldn't try it in a salad but will get some to put in the freezer for cooking thanks x

Wow this is fantastic! Well done you! I am 10.7 and have been bobbing around for ages it seems! Reading this has made me smile as getting in to the 9's is possible ;) x

I love banana on toast. I always slice it now just in case! Ha ha! It's lovely on ryvita too :) x

Wow you look fantastic! I would love to be 9.7 but I want to see how I feel at 10 first and will take it from there. Why don't you see how you feel at 10.5 and let that decide for you?

Ooh emsie I love spinach! Eat so much of it! For a quick tea I pop a hole in a bag and micro it for 40 secs! On a plate with some venison, fish, chicken and its really nice x

It was really nice and lots of Superfree :) loving this thread x

So this evening I have cooked my first RSC challenge! My plan was to make Mexican chick pea burgers but I had to go for a run tonight so Hal way through I changed to a chickpea, pepper and spinach curry with BNS chips! I put the passata in a saucepan with garlic and chilli flakes, cumin...

I really feel like I have! Just coming back on here after a few weeks and getting some advice and support has really helped as I was so worried I would just keep slipping! X

Hey :) thanks for the reply but I struggle to keep to something like that or work towards a goal like 12 weeks because when I get there I go mad! Ha ha I done it last year and then put a stone on :) x

Thank you - I am not going to put pressure on myself to shred until after the run and then try to hit that hard! My consultant said it wont be the exercise effecting my gains anymore (it has done in the past) and to be honest I know its the wrong food and slipping in and out of plan! My new plan...

Thanks for this! Photos taken this morning have given me a kick! I have ordered some shorts in a size 12 for glastonbury so no more gaining allowed! I am going to continue picking up some bits in a 12 too! x

Thanks so much for your words of wisdom! You may be right about doing too much but I feel I need to focus now! So... I have taken pictures of myself this morning and will do each week! I have to continue training for the 10k - I can run 6.5k at the moment so have 3 weeks to get up to the 10k...

Hi - I could really do with some help and support if possible? I lose very slowly and I have always been OK with that but recently I feel my motivation is slipping and have put 1lb a week on for the last few weeks! I am not eating stupidly but I am not sticking to plan! I am moderately...

Will really try to keep a diary today as we are off to Alton towers so need to be careful! Thinking ill have a red day that way I can have 2 wholemeal rolls :)

Really can't get back to writing a food diary at the moment and don't know why! My change this week is breakfast! I am going to go for 1/2 a grapefruit, a ML and pumpkin seeds I think :) Yesterday I had.... Plum 1/2 bag mini frazzles (3?) Omelette with onions, ham, mushrooms and beans...

Hey ... I can understand how frustrating this is as I had to accept I would lose on average 1/2 a week! Once I accepted this I found things easier. The weeks where I STS or put on I find really difficult to stay motivated! I used to want big losses and would crash diet but it never worked. Today...

Yes!! Delighted that I finally got my stone...it's been a long time coming! Really hope the next half a stone comes off quicker than the last but something tells me that's not going to happen!? Will aim to start writing my food diary again and hopefully I will get the next 7lb off and will see...

Delighted with my 2lb loss! It's been a SLOW journey but I finally have my next stone award and lots of motivation! Well done to all you losers :) x

Hey! Well done on your weight loss! I would look at why you are binging (easier said than done) and what are the trigger points. Are you being too strict and then 'rebelling against the plan' if so make sure you are allowing yourself enough syns and treats. Always have syn free / low syn treats...

I have a little one but thinking about investing in a big one soon! I saw a vegetable chopper 50% off in this months SW magazine that I may buy!

After 3 weeks of no kitchen and being a bit 'wishy washy' I now have the facility to cook again and feeling motivated to push on to my first target! I missed WI last week and I havent really kept a proper food diary for a couple of weeks so I will see how I am at WI this week and work out what I...

Ooh thanks ill have a look x

Hey Hun! How are you getting on? I am a little off plan at the moment but only 0.5 off my stone so need a kick up the ass x

I am excited for some chocolate tomorrow x

Hi all! I am soon shopping for all things kitchen and wondering if you could recommend what knives are best? Also I am looking at ovenware and like Le creuset but pro cook is also looking good for the price!? I love to cook and will be cooking more and more Thanks

Oh my god I am so jealous! Ha ha! What was the storyline? My my that's a naughty day! Tell me what are you going to do to put this right ... ;) when is your weigh in? X

Why are you finding it difficult? Can you get back on plan tomorrow? I find some weekends easier - when I don't have a drink normally! I can be as good as gold! I weighed last night and STS which I am ok about - just need to get this 1.5 off this week! That's my aim! X

I haven't eaten chocolate all lent (a big deal for me!) it's made things easier as that's a weakness for me! Debating carrying on after Easter although I am looking forward to my Easter egg! Hmmm.... Decisions decisions x

Hey! Firstly well done on an amazing weightloss so far :) it's hard when for whatever reason the motivation / focus goes and it's hard to click it back!? I am a little like this myself but have to keep an eye on what I want the next achievement to be! Maybe a (non food) treat when you achieve...

Hey all! I am at second time of SW after putting half of my lost weight on! I am 1.5 off losing a stone and it has taken a while although I know it's slow and am exercising a lot! I am losing faith a little and steering off plan a little! My diary is in my signature and I am on this forum quite...

I maintained this week but am steering off plan :( so need to keep my diary properly and get this 1.5 off!!! Well done everyone :) x

Woweeeeee! Amazing! Do you have a diary for this week? Huge congratulations to you ;)

Got weighed! Maintained which I am ok with! Absolutely starving with a poorly daughter and no kitchen (all silly excuses) and ended up eating beef satay and boiled rice and finishing some chips! Really annoyed and feel grim! Could do with a kick up the ass as I am 1.5 from stone and club 10 is...

Ha ha I can't wait to be at your weight! How are you finding it? I wanted big losses every week and lost sight last year and put half the weight on I'd lost! This time I have accepted its 1/2 or 1lb a week! It feels like this stone has taken an age but I am happy with any loss :)

Well done on your weightloss! I am dying to get on the right side of the 10.7 mark...nearly there!

Depends what I am having but some things I love are ... Spinach, rocket, plum tomatoes, cucumber, sweet peppers, spring onion....all chopped really small! Also I like capers, artichokes, coriander ;) Parmesan and balsamic too X

Wow well done! That's amazing! Was it your first one? How did you train? Mine is in 10 weeks and I ran 5 for the first time yesterday so was pretty pleased with myself :) your time is fantastic x

Well yesterday I ended up having a few drinks Andalusia roast dinner but I did run 5k in the morning and resisted dessert! Ha ... I only have 1.5 to go for my stone so need to keep on track! I think a gain this week would see me off! Trying to be back on plan now...so today Red bush Bite...

I love the sweet and salty but swap the peanut butter for marmite and slice the banana on top...have the toast as HEXB and the rest is free :) doesn't sound nice but I love it! X

Ha ha I have done this and there was over a stone difference! I had to sit down! I was so delighted and confused! A few hours later I revisited the scales and kicked myself! Ha

I now have 6 weeks to train to run 10k :( any advice would be hugely appreciated :) x

A bad sign that I have no food diary for a few days! This happens when my motivation slips! I haven't been bad just picky and not writing things down which means I lose track! So today I shall plan for the week - need to do this carefully as I have no kitchen at the moment! I will go back to my...

Ooh thanks - sorry only just seen the replies :)

I have given up chocolate for lent so I am excited for Easter Sunday! I will eat an egg and not feel guilty at all ha ha x

I love chocolate and would have some form of chocolate everyday! I have given it up for lent so now 'i can't have it' I find it easier. I'd either build it in to plan and syn it (before) or 'give it up' completely and that may stop you grazing on it ?

Oooh! And is it as nice?

Kangaroo??

Drinking lots more herbal teas! Loving them :) and swapping some fruit snacks for some veg snacks!

Ham, mushroom, spinach and (low low) cheese (A) omelette with red bush tea

I did do it 6/7 last year. This time around I was doing it 3/7 and mixing with running and swimming! I am not aiming to shred daily but doing it in the morning takes a lot if motivation! Will get up now :)

I stuck to plan apart from 2 bottles if wine last Saturday and put 1.5 on was gutted! Glad you are sorted Hun

Pulled pork - going to pop it in the slow cooker soon :) with spicy coleslaw and BNS chips (never made them before) x

Good luck with this! There is a good SE thread on here too :-) I am trying SE this week (some days) hoping for a boost too! I love SF and the extra HEX work for me :-) You will be at target before you know it :-)

Good luck hope you are feeling better x

Good luck ! X

You have done amazing! When do you shred!? I have to do first thing so the motivation struggles a little! X

I have up to 15 a day! But I went back to count how many over the week to see if it balanced and it didnt! I am sticking to 8 a day this week :)

Ha ha ooh no! I was within every day but drank 2 bottles of prosecco on Saturday night so I think that got me :( x

I did I had too many :( 30 over for the week x

Wow fantastic! Can't wait to see the results! I am determined to go L2 for 7 days straight! X

Not sure what I will use my syns on - but I will be keeping below 8 a day :-) It was a real shock to be honest - I have then gone back through my diary and went 30 syns over for the week - alcohol on Saturday! I think because I didnt 'fall off the wagon' for days after a drink on Saturday...

After an infuriating 1.5 gain my week will look like this... 30DS everyday No bread for HEXB No alcohol No chocolate (given up for lent) Super speed soup Either that or I will throw the towel in ;) x

Really gutted I have put on 1.5!! Really didn't see that coming :(( such a good job I have given up chocolate for lent because I want to eat loads if it now! I worked out 145 syns for the week - I know it's 30 more but I didn't think it would have that effect! Bloody Saturday and the prosecco...

I put 1.5 on - really gutted :(

You are so right I used to want big losses all the time and look for a quick fix but 1lb a week is fine with me! I had a STS and it really kicked me in the shins and I fell off the wagon as I had been exercising and doing SE! I was silly really and needed to carry on! Ha! Well done on your WL :-) x

Hey! Well done! I hit a plateau and was losing motivation so went back to basics...tracking everything and upping exercise! I lost 2lb last week and am hoping for a loss tonight! I think I have had to accept that I will always be 1lb a week loss but secretly hoping for 2 tonight :-) I would...

Wow well done! Great loss! x

I find a slice of wholemeal seed sensations toast with marmite. Also a banana, tangerine and some peppermint tea. Really good for me after 30DS!

Yeah I done it last summer and really noticed it! I wore a bikini! I was the same weight I am not and I was much more toned! My friend said she has really noticed mine and her shapes have changed this time too but I feel like I am a little half arsed this time! Need to do it consistently x

Ah thanks! Was lovely and dead quick :)

I do find they slowed...when I started again I was doing success express and stayed the same! So I mix with other exercise however it does really help change shape doing it full on x

I'm combining it with running and swimming but I need to do more 30DS than I am doing

Mmm I love it with chicken, spinach and spaghetti x

Watercress, tomatoes, scallops and chorizo

Yum x

I do this...a lot! I was really strict last week and synned everything and lost 2. Try having some carrot sticks while you cook? Empty plates as soon as they are finished / put too much salt on so you have to stop picking? Helps me sometimes x

Just had 2 x pieces if weight watchers carrot cake. Don't even know why I bought it...oh actually I knew I would want cake after I made the 1/2 syn cake! Silly eh! Anyway 2 x pieces is 8 syns! Kicking myself now :((( could have been wise eh!? Total syns 15

Ah thank you both for your comments! Much appreciated! I have WI today and looking forward to seeing the results as I feel I have had a good week. I like red because I enjoyed extra B choices, but I do get tired with lack of carbs so I think next week I am going to eat carbs at lunch and bulk...

In my opinion I think if you are using the group and consultants facilities to lose weight to get to your real target then you should pay for this service? Maybe you should speak to your consultant and have an honest conversation with her? I would be open minded to the fact that she may want to...

Wow I cannot believe they got away with disciplining someone for using linked in?? That's madness! They have to give you a reference even if it is to confirm your job title, start and finish dates and salary. They are not obliged to declare anything else and can't write anything bad unless they...

Ah thanks! Hope you get in the 10's quick :) x

Hey - do you have a linked n profile? A lot of recruiters / employers use this now x

Hey hun! I am sorry to hear this! I do quite a bit of recruitment and would say believe in yourself, there are plenty of jobs out there :) I would be careful of applying to too many agencies as your cv appears on desks too many times which is the best impression. Write a main master cv and...

The brocolli cheese and tomato bake from the comfort eats book! Had with a piece of salmon which was not needed! My little girl made me the apple strudel from the SW website :) delicious

Stuck to my guns today and got up at 5:30 to drive from my mums home to go for A run before work! Geez it was bitterly cold but I really enjoyed it :) tired now though, not long been in from work Seed sensations (B) marmite Banana Meat and veg chilli ML Greek peach yoghurt (0.5)...

Ooh what a lovely day today! Went for a run this morning (paying for it now!) 2 x tesco lighter choices Cumberland sausages with 1/2 tin beans and peppermint tea :) Went over to a friends and took the kids to the park and a walk (didnt get anything from the ice cream van because I realised...

It's from the little book of comfort food...with pomegranate seeds on top! It was really yummy :)

Wow! Amazing! How have your losses been?

Went to mums and she made the cauliflower cheese soup, lamb roast dinner (frylight roasties) and syn free vanilla panna cotta. Swapped wine for SL tonic :) perfect

Going to the mothers for a roast dinner :) can't wait! I have asked her to not use oil / butter on mine. I will avoid dessert x

I gave up drinking for jan and really craved wine! I haven't in feb and haven't had a drink and didnt even realise! Ha

Me too :) I have not made BNS chips before! Mmm

I don't know yet but I will probably steam the broccoli until just before cooked...then heat a wok with some fry light and garlic paste and a little chilli and flash fry the broccoli :)

1/ too many styles at once (I am sat in a coffee shop next to a girl in sequin jacket, a camouflage base ball cap on backwards, over styled hair, lots of jewellery and make up!) 2/ men in vests 3/ clothes too small 4/ too low and too short at the same time 5/ onesies outdoors :) 5 things you...

Yep...easy to have a pack though and not realise ha ha

I am having a Saturday night in with my little lady so I think I may make us som steak, butternut squash chips and garlic broccoli followed by either cinnamon apple strudel or vanilla panna cotta from the SW website :) !

Muller light milkshakes are fab! Haven't had one for ages but still have my HEXA today so may do that tonight! Yum! I haven't blended extra fruit in though :)

2 tesco light Cumberland sausages, chopped tomatoes and coffee ... Happy Saturday. X

Pink lillies are by far my favourite :) love the smell

Yeah I can have biscuits :) had custard creams yesterday! 2 for 6 not really worth it

Ooh will do this for tonight :)

I have at least 1 banana a day in work - we get free fruit so it is readily available. I always think I may eat too many? X

It seems chocolate is a popular thing to 'give up' for lent....I need to get some non-chocolatey treats to get me through the next 40 days as there are times an apple just won't cut it :) Any ideas / low syn treats please!? X

Simply 100% each week and swapping food diaries with my friend every night!

Ooh what are you trying this week?

Low cal coleslaw 2 2 x custard creams 6 2 x star burst 2 2 x pink wafers 2 Total...12

I used to have a lot of healthy smoothies before SW but I begrudge synning the fruit now :) still have them but syn them....I suppose a better use than chocolate or crisps?
