lost 1lbs yesterday, woop! was hoping for 2, as i'm now just 1lb off my stone award, hopefully i can get it next week...

12st 5lbs now WOOOO, 5lbs to go!

yayyyyyyyyyy, I'm 12.7lbs :) halfway through the 12s, woohoooo, hope to be out of them as soon as possible...

Down 2! Managed to lose 2 weeks holiday weight in just 1 week - proud :D

not looking forward to weighing in on thursday :( went to venice from friday - sunday, lots of pizza and pasta! going to the gym as much as possible, but seriously dreading it :( already gained 2lbs the week before from a 2 week holiday in florida - ah the perils of holidaying ;)

just finished W2D3! :D admittedly, i should be on week 3 by now, had a little blip in the middle haha! but oh well...

good for you! who cares if dorothy perkins have big sizes (don't think they do!), just be happy :D haha! It's amazing how amazing it can make you feel though when you fit into a smaller size. Hope you enjoy your son's Christening! Is it tomorrow? x

sorry for your loss love. yes, stress can definitely affect weight loss, it's understable if you don't lose weight right now! x

lost 1lb yesterday, would have like to lose a little more, but i'm still happy i suppose :)

mm they're so delicious! I struggle to get my HexB in sometimes, so this is perfect :) YUM!

SW says get stuff from the "Fresh from the grill" section! Things such as steaks, spicy rice and seasoned vegetables are always a better option :) also, Spicy Diablo Pasta is meant to be alright, but ask for cheese on the side! Hope you enjoy your meal! x

yorkshire puddings (small-ish size) is between 3-5 syns i think my consultant told me! and gravy, it really depends on how they make it. i'm really not sure sorry, i'd count like 2 syns per tablespoon but that oculd be completely wrong! hahaa

had 1 syn so far from 2 tablespoons of salsa, yummy. tonight I think I'll have a Rocky Road light HiFi bar tonight (3) and then maybe some ketchup or mayonnaise with dinner tonight (2?), and a Tiny Toblerone (1.5). Such a chocolate addict! :S

probably friday or saturday, because i stay up much later and get the munchies haha!

Dear Emma, You've lost 7lbs in the past 3 weeks - it's okay to be proud of yourself for that! Stop comparing yourself to other people, ignore the woman who lost 10.5lbs yesterday at WI! Yes, that's excellent for her, but everybody is different. It shouldn't lessen your own achievement, so smile...

mmmm these all sound delicious :D love discovering new yummy snacks!

-1lb for me please :D

thanks everyone, just to update you - i lost 2lbs :) big panic over NOTHING!

somewhat nervous but also excited to weigh in tomorrow! think i've done quite well, been to the gym 3 times this week and danced twice - way more than normal haha! but i know that if i don't lose a lot, i'll be disappointed. eeek, good luck everyone!

just enjoying a weight watchers chocolate ice cream tub (4 syns) with 2 cadbury's caramel nibbles (1.5 syns). I also had a biscuit before, which I'm going to guess was like 3? it was one of those sandwich type biscuits. so, probably a total of 8.5 syns today, happy with that but no more today...

"I wonder is there part of me fighting dieting because I associate it with pure misery on some level" - this is why I always hated slimming world, weight watchers, etc. but now i realise they're so much healthier, they don't make you as miserable as bulimia and anorexia. hope all you girlies...

HONK HONNKKK!

hello! new 12st-er over here! I started at 13st2, but lost 6lbs so i'm now at 12.10! Hoping to be in the 11s by the end of July (fingers crossed!)

Emma - 28lbs for now - hopefully i'll need to boost it to 38! :D but if not, 28lbs would make me SO happy haha!

hey, i'd like to join! :D 44lbs to lose, 4lbs lost so far! Do I copy and paste the entire list again then? xx

actually, bit gutted as I redid the maths and I have 3st to lose in total D: hahaha, my sidebar thing says 2, becuase that's when I hit "healthy bmi", but i'd like to lose another 1st after that. So... 10st by Christmas? BRING IT!

Thanks everyone! :) i really appreciate all your comments, I've calmed down a little now. I think that, because I have a looong history of eating disorders, the thought of somebody seeing my weight, especially when i've gained, petrifies me. But I know I need to go, so bring it on! And also...

is this only for people who want to lose 4st? beause i only have 2st to lose!

uh oh, not looking forward to tomorrow! scariest day of the week, definitely! :( i feel like my meals have been good this week, but i've "grazed" a lot in between, so i think i may have gained, and it's only my second week on SW! :'( darn it, fingers crossed the number on the scale comes out okay...

I'm absolutely terrified to weigh in tomorrow. It's only my third WI, and last week i lost 4lbs. I was happy with that - I'd hoped for a little more in my first week, but we went out to restaurants three times! :O hahah! But this week i've been rubbish, grazing constantly, not really counting my...

thank you thank you! :D sorry i've been offline a few days, but thanks :)

Thanks everyone! :D we went to nandos in the end as I felt this was the most "normal teen" place to go hehe ;) thanks for all your responses though, i'll remember these in the future x

4LBS OFF THIS WEEK :D :D :D *happy dance* just 5 more to go. eeeek, prom is 30th june and i'd really like to weigh 12st 6lbs ish (currently 12.12) so please wish me luck!

well done everyone with your losses! i have my WI tonight, ah, fingers crossed for a loss :)

ahaaa! thank you very much. in that case - HONK! :D

you look amazing and i like the idea of comparing your weight loss to actual things! :) well done!

hahahahaha love this, although as ben and jerry's best friend, it did tear me up inside ;)

wow, what a transformation! you must be so proud of yourself, well done! x

GOOD GOSH you look incredible :D GO YOU :D hope you're extremely proud of yourself xxxx

mmmm all these are making me seriously hungry hahaha! today i had pasta with passata, lean bacon (fat cut off!), onions and peppers. so delecious and so simple!

this sounds fun;i may have to look for one near me because i hate working out with toooo many other people around who are all super sports freaks...

i'm going out with friends tomorrow for lunch; where is best to go? they'll let me choose, as they know i want to be healthy, but where could i go? subway? is that best? or...? xx

i'm sorry, but what does it mean to be 100%?! everyone's honking and i don't know why!!! :L :P

i've only met my consultant once (newbie alert!) but from what i saw, and what my sister has told me, she seems fantastic! she really congratulates you even if you lost "only" 0.5lbs, or even if you stayed the same, becuase it's better than gaining! :) and if you do gain, she'll sit with you...

i have (well, we think) PCOS, so i only actually get a star week every couple of months or something. but when i do, i tend to gain a couple of pounds, so frustrating. i sometimes take diuretics, which helps with water retention.

not a SW food, but I love the WW ice cream pots in chocolate and toffee flavour! :D 4.5 syns each i think, and they taste DIVINE <3 mmmmmmmmmmmm.

thanks for following back :) so today i have eaten; weetabix minis with blueberries and skimmed milk, pasta with passata, lean bacon and onions. then i had melon and 2 apricots. i also ate 3 babybel lights. for tea we had salmon with potato, i had salad and 2 tablespoons of lighter than light...

interesting thread this one; i've done both weight watchers and slimming world (although i only did WW from home and don't think i did it properly haha), but i think the freedom of having so many free foods on SW is great, and the fact thta you don't have to weigh much is good too :)

great great great thread, i'm a newbie so i had a good read of this ready for my second meeting on thursday!

thanks, i'm a newbie so this is a super helpful thread :)

weight watchers chocolate and toffee mini ice creams:)

thanks crylittlesister :) two more days till weih in - should i be excited or terrified?! ;)

wow, it's scary how similar we sound! i did the same thing; restricted and lost a lot of weight, then binged and purged, but then it turned into a cycle which lasted a good five years or so. but it's lead to my weight spiralling out of control! i know what you mean about learning to trust food...

hey, i followed you, could you follow back so we could DM? Please don't say anything on my mentions etc, as i'd rather my friends didn't know that i was on slimming world! haha, i'm only sixteen after all... i don't think it's "cool" ;)

thanks! yeah, i enjoyed it so much, can't wait for tomorrow's run :) i'm sure there'll be tougher days, but i hope i can stick at this! Just wondering;do you just run the three times a week that it tells you to? because loads of people say they run everyday and stuff, so i don't know what to...

Thanks sinead! :D yeah, i've gone through a lot with my weight, from binging to starving, overweight to underweight, but i eant to do iy properly this time!! It sounds likr you went through a lot as a child, i'm very sorry for that! I'll definiyely folloe you on twitter though so we can chat...

Hello :) just did Week 1 Day 1, yay. really enjoyed it :)

yeah, my area isn't the nicest, but i've grown up there (i'm 16) so it's not really scary for me. i think i should be a little more cautious though, i may get a rape alarm, thanks! :) xxx

hello hello hello! :D i'm Emma, and i just joined SW last thursday after years and years (and years and years and years) of trying to lose weight (and failing :p). I just started the Couch to 5K today, so much fun! can't wait to run a 5K properly. i'm going on holiday in about 2 months and i'm...

ah, helpful thread! i'm always terrified of meeting people i know; nothing worse than an old size 6 friend watching you puffing and red faced like a lunatic -.-

hey cupcake; so unrelated, but the picture at the bottom of your sig is really cool? is it like a simulation of what you'll look like after a weight loss? if so, could you tell me where you got it?! thanks!

Hello ladies! :D just finished W1D1, loved it although i'm pretty knackered already, dear me... anyway, just thought i'd pop in here to say hello etc!

sorry to be a nuisance, but i'd like to lose NINE lbs. you wrote 6lbs on my name at the start ;)

hello brendyloo65 :) i only started SW officially last week, but my mum has been on it for about 3 years haha, so i think i get the hang of it. Anyway, there are a LOT of SW threads for you to check; http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world/116347-slimming-world-faqs.html...

So yesterday we went for a meal for my grandaddy's birthday, which was lovely. we had a carvery, but I feel a little terrible... :/ I had a brunch in the morning; all the works, bacon, egg, sausage, beans etc. then for the carvery i had salad with salmon, then gammon with veg and mashed potato...

only the spoonsize ones?! how very strange, aren't they chocolatey with chocolate chips? hahaha, strange. i'll ask my SW consultant on thursday, although i don't think they're too great for me, since eating them this morning i've been CRAVING chocolate all day :/ seems like they increase my want...

I've noticed around the forums a few ex-bulimic/eating disoeder recoverers, and thoufht we should have a forum where we could chat. I suffered with restricting from 11-13, then bulimia till 16. I'm now pretty much recovered and trying to get back to my pre-eating disorder weight, but losing...

Ahh really?! :D thank you so much - i adore them and i my mum bought so many boxes i felt terrible not eating them :p Thanks!

This is such a good idea! No clothes to give away yet, but hopefully soon...

OOH FALAFELS! haha, i'm a huge falafel fan, although I haven't made them since starting SW, so I'll have to check the syns... Anyway. Take some chickpeas, mash them, then mix with chopped onions. add salt and pepper to taste, and garlic if you wish. then spoon into balls and fry in fry light...

Sorry if this has already been answered etc, but I'm just so confused! I'm doing the slimming world EE plan, but just before I started my mum bought 4 boxes of Weetabix Minis Chocolate Chip! Are these allowed as a heB? I ask because they ARE wholegrain, and my HEB section says that Weetabix Mini...

mmmmmmmmmm, I adore bbq sauce, especially with a barbeque, this is great thanks!

Ah, such an old thread but it came up at the bottom of my screen, and this huge list of ice creams under 5 syns is just so helpful!

mmm, that piture looks delicious! :O can't wait to try this, excited!

ooh sounds tasty for those nights in front of the TV when I just want to eat a big bowl of ice cream! hahaha! Thanks x

Ooh sounds delicious! We're having a barbeque on monday, so I may bring along a little of this dip!

Keep at it love, you're absolutely gorgeous! <3

Just made myself a delicious snack! It's syn-free on EE, not sure about the rest as I don't do them! Anyway, I simply took one slice of ham (free food) and spread on 2 The Laughing Cow Extra Light Triangles (I'm allowed 6(!) of these as my A choice healthy extra, as I don't drink much milk, so...

i believe that yes, dieting makes you fat. if you cut down your calories extremely, you will just binge and gain weight. this is what lead to my bulimia. however, it is possible to keep the weight off if you make a LIFESTYLE CHANGE! don't think "oh, i'll drop a few lbs by not eating enough"...

glad this is here, i'm also a thursday WI with slimming world :) my only question is; dy you guys just weigh once a week? is that best?

Hello, could I join this or am I too late? I do hope I'm not too late! :D Anyway, I think I'll aim to lose around 9lbs :) thanks very much! PS i'm a thursday weigher :)

[EDITED!]So yesterday and today seem to have gone well! Yesterday: Frosted wheats with strawberries and a skimmed milk Jacket potato with tuna, extra light mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato and cucumber 2 eggs with potato wedges, lettuce, tomato and cucumber 2 finger kitkat Grapes...

Well, first goal is 11st 12lbs, which is 10% loss. Then 11st would be healthy bmi. Eventually i'd like to get to 10st, which would be middle of a healthy bmi :D im 13st 2 at ladt weigh in (yestrrday), so 3st total to go! But yeah, breaking it up into smaller goals is a lot easier to manage! I...

So, here i go again haha! Im 16, nearly 17. I've tried a few times to lose weight alone, but im serious now. I've joined slimming world and cant WAIT to see the pounds drop :D any support would be so greatly appreciated as always. I'm following the Extra Easy plan which is so simple i'm happy...
