Welcome everyone! Good luck with weigh ins!

2lbs off for me yesterday. Kind of wanted a little more as it was first weigh in but have spurred myself on saying that 2lbs a week would get me beyond target in 6 months and still happily on plan. Still in the 13s but maybe next week!!

Well done Rosielea :) I've got weigh in tomorrow. Been on plan all week so hoping for a good first loss.

Hey all! Ive started doing SW at home AGAIN. Did really well about 2 years ago and lost almost 2 stone and its now gone back on because I'm a greedy moose. Im roughly 13st 5lb so hoping to be in the 12s soon. Next weigh in next Monday. Good luck in getting to the 12s everyone!

Hello all :) I've been on this site before when I last did SW however I completely lost the plot and it seems chocolate and carbs were calling me so I'm going back on plan! I've signed up for a triathlon in a few months and the wake up call was going running and being quite a bit slower than...

0.5lb on for me. Perfectly happy with that so now to plan for my holiday food and get a great loss in two weeks!

Hey guys, I've got a new phone and can't work out how to copy and paste right! I'd like to lose 5lb this month...even with my holiday :) I can add myself in tonight or if someone beats me to it then thank you!

A lb off for me this week taking me to 11st 1lb...so so close! I'd like to be in the 10s next week!

Some fantastic losses this week! I missed WI last night so went to a group this morning. 1lb off for me. Well chuffed with that.

Thought I'd set myself some new targets. Just little ones to keep me encouraged. 1. Lose 2lb to reach 11st 2. Lose 4lb to get half stone award. Not sure on targets after that, I'll decide when I get there!

Down to 11st 2lb this week. Want to get 2lb off next week so I can finally get into the 10a. Realised I'm working a last shift next Wednesday though so having to WI a day early. Heres to a 100% week!

1.5lb off this week. Well happy with that. Well done on your losses everyone and to those who gained just think of next week!

Hello! Ive been here before but back again but not by much :) Just had my second WI and am down to 11st 3.5 so not far to go.

Honk day 2!

Honk! First honk back on track in a long time :)

Well second (and last) WI of the Christmas holidays and I've gained 2lb so I have 23lb to lose. :) Back on it now and ready to run and eat my way to target.

My goals are to run...alot! 2013 will be a race year. So I hope to get all my body magic awards and sign up for a marathon for 2014. I'll get down to my target weight this year too, only 1st 6lb to go. On a none sw target I want to pay off all debts and start saving for a house. :)

I've decided I want 6lb off in January so I can get to 10st 7. Nice round number :) will add myself later when Im on the lappy.

Last WI and I've lost 15lb in total since I started this challenge. Not my target but proper happy with that!

Only a 1lb gain! Im elated. I expected so much worse as that was 9 days since last WI. Want to be almost 100% this week so I can get that 1lb off :) Well done all! Yay to getting back on plan.

I've had to rejoin recently after a month or so break and Id got my bronze and silver awards but with my new book and fresh start Im starting from bronze again. Hopefully I'll be off for run tonight. Got myself a garmin and a hrm for Christmas so have already tried them out. Loving getting...

Oh fabulous I'll wait until my official WI then. My scales tend to take a bit extra off so I only like to use the SW group ones. Everyone weightloss has been epic. 70 stone is amazing. Well done all...one more WI to go!

I love these big challenges. :) I want to reach target by Easter so will say 21lbs to go. That takes me just below target. Largerthanmost - Start weight 11 stone 13lb Target 20lb to lose Rara Lara - Start weight- 12st 12lbs, Target 28lbs to lose Rosielea - Start weight 12 stone (168 lbs)...

Hello everyone! I've had a break from SW recently and only just joined again but have lost the weight I.put on so Im still the same weight on this challenge. Ill WI on Tuesday as well even though official WI isn't until Thursday :) so it's 16lb off for me.

4lb off for me! So lost the weight Id put on during my break from plan. Hoping for 1lb off next week.

Oo not sure. Our C said she'd explain more about the Christmas WI next Tuesday so will know then. Im still hoping to lose or at least sts that week. Im quite looking forward to our Christmas party next week though :)

Hello ladies and gents! I've had a big old break from SW and gained 4lb in that time. Had my first WI this Tuesday. Really hoping to not put any on over Christmas so we shall see. Been 100% so far and hoping for a nice loss next week :)

Im in :) will set a goal closer to the new year.

Subscribing to this because there are some amazing recipes in here that I need to try out!

I agree with above. Even though you've put on this week, if you just jump back on plan and eat lovely nice food you'll stay motivated and probably have a good loss the coming week. Maybe keep a food diary and you might find where you went off plan before. No need to stick to veg soup in the...

Alpen light, yogurt and an apple. Eating it slowly over the morning though as Im not feeling very hungry :/

I think it would be nice to have the losses at the top. Lots of people are very close now. As I say I won't be updating until the end of November, unless I get too desperate to WI and head back to class :) will keeping checking back to see how everyone's doing.

I'll try this. I've started writing down everything I spend so each week I can work out where I can be wasting money. Today would have been a NSD but my mum asked if I wanted to go to a exercise class (we're running tomorrow and I can't run 2 days in a row) which is £2.50 and I also brought a...

Pork chops with fat taken off, mash, carrots and brocolli with a bit of gravy :)

Slice of wholemeal bread, 1/2 tin of beans, grated cheese (hea) and an apple.

Honk for yesterday!

An apple before one slice of wholemeal bread and beans. Saving the other slice of bread for lunch!

Went off plan and at last WI was +2lb. I won't be going to WI again until the end of November so will update then with hopefully a number that's not far from target :)

Im restarting on Monday and hoping to get 7lbs off by the end of November. :) Bettyboop23 8lbs (0 lost 8lbs to go) Brennan72 16lb (0 lost 16lb to go) Chocolate_bananas (0lbs lost 6lbs to go) Donna88 2lb (0 lost 2lb to go) Ffynnon 8lbs (0lbs lost 8lbs to go) Hellatrix 10lb (0 lost 10 to go)...

To hopefully lose 10lb before end of December so I can enter the ne year 2st lighter.

Hello everyone :) I joined this thread a while ago but decided to join a group for the support. Since then I've lost 13lbs so 18lbs in total. I've started to go off plan a lot and not been keeping up with my exercise so I've told my consultant Im having a break to get myself back to it! As of...

Honk! Day 1!

Maintain for me this week. Well happy with that as I had a rare night out and expected a gain. Bring on next weeks WI!

Really not looking forward to WI tonight. Weighed in on the wii and it looks looks like a sts but I think that's being hopeful. Going to do a food diary for this coming week to get a good loss next week. Will update you all later. Good luck everyone!

Nope no potatoes in the soup and Im only having one HeA because I don't really like any of it other than cheese so 3 babybels in a day is enough for me :) The sausages I've got I know are half a syn on EE so I assumed it'd be the same for original?

Yep I'll weigh them out before cooking. I was going to do mash but Im assuming the skin has to stay on? So figured roasties would be easier. Im taking it one day at a time but going to try a red week I think :)

Does this look ok for a red day: Breakfast: bacon, scrambled egg and an apple. Lunch: carrot and corriander soup with small wholemeal bread (half a heb) Dinner: begoodtoyourself sausages, roast potatoes in frylight (heb), broccoli, green beans Snacks: rocky road hi-fi (other half of heb)...

Honk!

Peri peri chicken with Mexican style rice (rice mixed with kidney beans, chilli, peppers, onion and spices) and some broccoli on the side.

I've been doing SW for about 17 weeks or something like that and have lost 20lbs in total. My aim was to lose 1lb a week so Im sticking to that. I started on my own but went to group after a few weeks and it's been brilliant. I feel like I become more motivated for the week ahead if I stay to...

Well after a brilliant few weeks I've completed all these goals :) Next targets are: Lose 1.5st - 1lb to go Get club10 - 2lb to go Get 1.5st sticker at group - 6lb to go Ideally Id like all of these by the end of October so 4 more WIs. Id quite like slimmer of the month this month too.

Scrambled egg and bacon and ate an apple while it was cooking :)

Thank you :) that was two weeks loss though as I had to miss group last week. I should skip a week more often if it means get losses like that!

Getting there! Im on a misson to get that last 8lb off to reach my christmas target :D Sinead- total loss to date 6st 1lbs, 3 stone 7lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 22lbs, 1 stone 7lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs...

Hey! Ill be joining you all for a while :) Weighed in at 10st 10lb today so need another 2lb to get my club 10 and 3lb to reach my first interim target. I havent been in the 9s for a long time so can't wait to get there!

6.5lb off this week. :)

6.5lb off this week! Really chuffed as I got my 1st award at group as well. I had missed last weeks WI though so thats 2 weeks of WIs in one.

Well people I'm finally off! WI today was 6.5lb off (I missed last week so thats 2 weeks worth) so Im now finally and safely in the 10s! Hope to see you all on the other side soon!!!

Great losses so far everyone :D I want at least 3lb off this week as I missed the last WI and had gained 2lb the week before. Feeling positive.

Honk for yesterday!

Hey hey. Sorry for the absence. My dad was taken to hospital with a hernia and went to have an op but it went wrong but all is sorted and he's home now and all is well again. Also bagged myself a job at my hospital which Im ecstatic about :D missed WI so no idea if I've lost or gained in the...

Baked spinach risotto and grapes

Honk for the last two days!

2lb on from last week. Hoping to get that off on Wednesday.

Roast dinner :)

Haven't updated for a while so I estimated the minimum Ive done. Did a quarter marathon yesterday in 1hr 15m :) Anahita - 10hrs, 1hrs 30mins done. Trimlee: 15 hours -12 hrs 50 mins done Meliososo: 15 hours - 7hr done Katie: 15 hours - 9 hrs 20 mins done Maggie: 15 hours - 2 hour done

How are things going nelly? All back on track? Well done on the loss STBS! :) Glad you're feeling better again peacelily. It didn't sound very nice :( I've actually been avoiding minimins because I had a gain on Wednesday. I knew it was coming (had a dominos the night before and then for...

I had my first gain on Wednesday of 2lb. So back up to 11st 2.5lb. Im hoping to get that back off and a bit more this coming week. I want out of the 11s!!!

1.5lb on for me this week. Gutted but deserved. Its coming off this week and then some.

I think its the pill. I've been uber picky since I started it so I've stopped now. Decided to make peri-peri burgers with wedges tonight nom nom.

You're so good and on plan! Ive really struggled to get into it this week and not had one day on plan...whoops! Still doing my exercise (not long going for a 4.5 mile run) but not been keeping track of food :/ Hoping for a sts or 1lb off this week. Really really want 1lb off. Whens your WI day...

Feeling like Im going to do it :) can't wait to be a skinny mini at Christmas! Sinead- total loss to date 6st 1lbs, 3 stone 7lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 22lbs, 1 stone 7lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs, 92lbs to go...

Soon to be slim you'll get that off in no time. Have a 100% week and you could be in the 12s in a week :) I've almost finished my first week on my half marathon training now. I've loved it! Its goes Mon- dvd workout, Tues- run, Wed- walk, Thurs- run, Fri- rest, Sat- run, Sun- bike ride. So I've...

I have 8 tins of bean in my cupboard but I still thing I'll grab some of these lol.

Peppered quorn steak, mash potato, broccoli and gravy.

That cake sounds scrummy. I've got to say baking cupcakes has been missed since starting SW. Never tried the SW cakes so might give it a go. Feeling less snacky at the moment but still been off plan for a day and a bit, so did a big food shop today and wrote a food plan yesterday. Luckily Im...

Reached my goal of losing 1st today :D So need another 1lb off to get into the 10st range. Another little goal is to get my 1st sticker in group and need 3.5lb off to get that. In 2 weeks Id like both those targets smashed.

2lb off for me this week! **punk*~*star** 7lb (1.5 lost - 5.5 lb to go) *soon-to-be-slim* - 8lbs (0lbs lost 8lbs to go) ally_88 - 7lbs (1lb lost 6lbs to go) Arctic-BNG 7lbs (0lbs Lost - 7.5lbs to go) babylove - 8lb (6lb lost - 2lbs to go) Becca Wecca 8lbs. (0lbs lost - 8lbs to go) Bernadette...

Argh Im so so close! Another 2lb off for me tonight so Im 11st .5lb...I WILL be in the 10s next week. It's my mission.

Another 2lb off for me :D

2lb off for me :) well happy with that. Wouldn't mind another good week like that next time as well. Well done everyone so far!

Good luck for tomorrow everyone :) Im hoping for 1.5lb this week but had chips today :/ but apart from a small blip yesterday and a small portion of chips today I've been 100% since last Tuesday. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Gosh I keep totally neglecting this tread! Im almost a stone through now and really feel like I can do it. I've just started a training plan for to run a half marathon which takes me up to xmas and hoping to get the last 1.5 st off by then too. This week was set to be a 100% week but Im...

Honk!

Whoops. Forgot about the list! Trimlee: 15 hours - 3.5 hrs done Meliososo: 15 hours - 1 hr done

Ooo Id quite like to join a September challenge. Id like to aim for 15 hours too. Went for a walk to town yesterday so Ill start from there. 15 target - 1 hr competed.

Honk! Day 4 :D

Wow lots of people doing the same then. Glad to see it's helped some of you too. It does seem a bit of a waste of syns to have bread but that's probably because I like to us mine for chocolate lol.

Honk! Day 3 :D

Im just curious as to whether anyone has cut bread out from their diet and noticed it help with bloating or weightloss? I decided to have a week without bread as I found I was having it everyday and I get bloated very easily but wasn't sure if it was bread or something else. Im on day 3 into...

Lemon chicken with fried rice from the SW magazine. Ive heard it's nice so here's hoping!

HONK! Day 2 :D

Will be joining you all over here now :) been a Tuesday WI day but have to change due to a night class. Luckily my old consultant is taking over the new class soon which Im so so happy about. Hoping for a really good loss next week! Good luck all.

HONK!!!

Slimming world chips, broccoli, carrots and sausages. Was lovely.

Another 1lb off so Im very almost over half way there. Feel like I can do this! Sinead- total loss to date 6st 1lbs, 3 stone 7lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 22lbs, 1 stone 7lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs, 92lbs to...

Some brilliant losses this week. Well done everyone! 1lb off for me and Im more than a little chuffed with that :)

1lb off! Going for at least 2lb off next week. I WILL reach this goal! **punk*~*star** 7lb (1lb lost - 6lb to go) *soon-to-be-slim* - 8lbs (0lbs lost 8lbs to go) ally_88 - 7lbs (0lbs lost 7lbs to go) Arctic-BNG 7lbs (0lbs Lost - 7lbs to go) babylove - 8lb (3.5lb lost - 4.5lbs to go) Becca Wecca...

1lb off this week!

Another lb off and half way to my silver award. Would LOVE to get 3lb off this week to get into the 10s at next WI. Its star week this week so if Im 100% then I might just do it!

This is what I thought too. Surely it's anything that changes a sedentary lifestyle? I think because Im so used to putting walking and running down it feels a bit like cheating putting gardening but it was blooming hard work!

Im 5'2'' and 11st 3.5lb. Im now a size 14 in trousers but some are slightly baggy but no where near a size 12. Tops are a size 10 or 12 depending on style and shop. Can't wait to get to size 10 trousers. Another stone and a half and I should be there, only problem being that my top half will...

Hey, Just a quick on about the body magic awards. Im working towards my silver but have only managed 2 runs this week but that was because I spent one evening doing heavy gardening work (as in sawing bushes out and clearing things). Can I put an hour of gardening down as my activity that day?

Missed group last week after a bad week and couldn't quite get myself back into it this week. Hoping for a sts tbh. I so want to be in the 10s :( if I hadn't slipped up I old have been there by now. I want to be in the 10s by the 19th so another 3 WIs.

Honk! 11syns. Day 3 :)

Arctic-BNG 7lbs (0lbs Lost - 7lbs to go) Jenny809 8lbs (0lbs lost - 8lbs to go) Spinme307 8lbs (0lbs lost - 8lbs to go) Jc1976 8lbs (0lbs lost - 8lbs to go) Nattymo 7lbs (0lbs lost - 7lb to go) Pos bird 8lbs (0lbs lost - 8lbs to go) **punk*~*star** 7lb (0lb lost - 7lb to go) Sazbirl 8lbs. (0lbs...

Honk day 2!

Fruit and a babybel

I decided to run up the hill last night as it was a lovely evening so going to WI at a different group tonight instead. Fabulous losses this week ladies! Ive been off plan most the week and haven't kept up with most of my usual exercise so Im not hopeful but using tonight to put a line under it...

Good luck with the races everyone :) I did a 10k in July in 79 mins but that was tough going as I really hadn't trained properly! I've got another 3 races coming up. A quarter marathon at the end of September, the 7 mile mud run in October and a local 5 mile in November. I do one longer run a...

Honk! Feels like the first one in ages.

Fabulous. Looking forward to trying out the other group!

Oh fabulous thank you :)

Roast dinner again with gammon, potatoes, broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. Smothered in gravy of course.

I really want to get to target by christmas and have said I will buy myself an awesome dress for parties etc. I also want some professional photos done of me, my partner and daughter, so I'll be getting those at target too.

I only found out it's on the same night a few days ago so haven't had a chance to speak to her. Will mention something on Tuesday though. Will probably still pop back during the holidays lol.

I love my group and consultant but Im starting an evening college course on the same day as SW! :( There's another group on a Wednesday I can attend but I wondered if I can keep all my records etc? Im working towards my silver body magic and will be over half way to getting it, so can I carry...

2.5lb off this week Sinead- total loss to date 6st 1lbs, 3 stone 7lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 22lbs, 1 stone 7lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs, 92lbs to go Rigby - total loss to date 2lbs, 41lbs to go jules81 total...

Argh had a totally off plan day and feel crap for it. Spent the day gardening (hedge trimmers, a saw...the lot!) so Im sure Ive been active enough for it to not make a huge difference but still feel *****. Totally back on plan tomorrow and going for a run tomorrow too. Meant to go today but...

I gave up about 2 weeks before starting SW and my best alive would be to not eat because of your craving, even if it's healthy food as you'll get into the routine of eating not because of hunger. I started painting my nails or having a shower in the evening and having a little pampered. Reward...

Done!!! Ive got 2 goals now. The first is to lose a stone so 1.5lb to go and the other is to get in the 10s so that's 4lbs. Im hoping in 2 weeks I can do this :D

Well done on the loss :) well done on the loss as well corset! 2.5lb off for me so 12.5lb off so far. Really feeling like I can do this now so going to try for another 100% week. So want to get that stone off. Also got my bronze magic award last night so aiming for my silver next!

2.5lb off this week. 11st 3.5lb...gosh...those 10s ar creeping ever so close now.

2.5lb off this week. Getting there slowly but doubt I'll meet target for this month but hey...you never know.

Whoo 2.5lb off this week!! Delighted with that and also starting to make friends within the group too. Can't be bad.

2.5lbs off for me this week :)

Congrats londongirl! I was looking forward to WI but now it's here Im dreading it. I've put so much effort into this week I'll ve disappointed with a 1lb loss as that's what I normally get. It's taster night tonight so will be making forrero roche. Nom. Hopefully celebrate my half stone and...

Honk!

I just wear normal clothes but it's usually a tank or vest top and jeans. I have a very limited wardrobe while Im losing weight lol.

No idea! Im using 1 syn for my gravy but other than that not sure. Chocolate? :)

Honk! 10.5 syns

Gosh that isn't a good day at work :( I can't eat to start training to become a nurse but can't say Im looking forward to the bad days on the job. Just finished my zumba dvd. Really didn't want to do it so got on and did it as soon as I put my little girl to bed. Now to shove on a film and...

Honk!!

Im having another good day. Got my BNS chips cooking in the oven atm to go with sausages and spaghetti hoops. Felt like a bit of comfort food. Still got 2.5 syns left if I want to keep them to 10. Ooo new funky wardrobe sounds good. Have you got a target outfit? I've been toying with the idea...

Oh fiddler! You're doing a brilliant job even if it's coming off slowly. I lost 3lb in my first week at group and then 1lb the last two week. It DOES come off and you WILL get there. Just think though, that's 4lbs off that you won't see again. Even 0.5lb a week is almost 2 stone off a year.

Grapes and a babybel and because I feel rubbish this morning a rocky road bar too :)

Well done on the 2lb loss. I've been putting off trying on older things incase I hadn't slimmed down as much as I thought. Thing is though, when I eventually get down to the next clothes size I'll have no clothes! I also showed my partner the photo that made me realise I needed to lose weight...

Honk! 10.5 syns.

Ooo krispy kreme...no way could I have resisted that. I've heard with exercise you retain more water but if you just drink extra water on those days you do something then it evens out. This is what I've been doing as I walk, run and do zumba with 2 or 3 rest days a week. Ok, I've just spent...

A roasty! With sausage (didn't defrost the turkey!), peas, carrots, potato and broccoli.

Another 1lb off. Slowly but surely chipping away at it. Sinead- total loss to date 4st 13lbs, 4 stone 8lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 22lbs, 1 stone 9lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs, 92lbs to go Rigby - total loss to...

1lb off for me :) think I've been a bit optimistic with my target but sod it it's good to aim high!

Another 1lb off for me please :) I love seeing the group loss running total. It's huge!

Well I was gobsmacked at a 1lb loss! Well chuffed with that. Got my spag bol waiting for me at home so getting straight back into it :)

1lb off so 11lb 6lb now. Argh the 10s are so close now!

After WI I'll be having spag bol made with mushrooms, pepper, celery, carrot, onion, garlic and extra lean mince. Nom Nom.

Good luck today for WI everyone :) after a crazy weekend Im expecting a sts. Lost inches though so can't complain.

Completely off plan weekend for me here too. My little girls birthday on Saturday and I don't think I ate ANY sf food :o Then Sunday my partner had a rare Sunday off so we went for a meal out. Once again...NO sf food. I am fully expecting a gain or sts this week but going to WI regardless. No...

Went for a run so just icing my leg and having an apple and babybel. Think that's all Ill get time for this morning. :/

Honk!

SW chips, 2 be good to yourself sausages and broccoli. I wanted some good comfort food and that hit the spot perfectly.

Hey ladies. Been meaning to come back to this thread for a while now. :) Lost 9lbs so far on my goal to losing 2.5 st. Im feeling positive this week and things are going well. Went to the balloon festival last night so we had a picnic that I wasn't prepared for so had 19.5 syns but it'll even...

So far 0.5 on mayo in some mash potato and a milkybar at 3.5 syns. Not sure what else to have as my main meal tonight is free :/

Planning. I plan all my meals for the next 7 days. If I don't I ll get flustered and that's when it goes pear shaped. I ALWAYS makes sure I save some syns for the evening.

My breakfast I usually have my SF first. So this morning for example I had bacon and eggs but I had an apple and a drink and then had my bacon and egg. I then didn't eat all the second half as I wasn't amazingly hungry. So as said before, try having it first really.

Honk!!

Yes totally excited!! If I do really well I might even make my actual target by Christmas which is 7lb more than my Christmas target. I don't even know what size Ill be as I was about 17 last time I was that weight. Can't sodding wait!

Veg filled chilli and rice

Reached my 11st 7lb target :D Next target to get my half stone sticker at group (id already lost some before going to group). So 3lb to go :)

Ciansmummy, Ive just booked on a quarter marathon and it's so nice to have something to work towards. Really makes you want to get out and run a bit more.

After tonights WI Im now 11st 7lb, so 1lb off. Im determined to get 2lb off this week. I can't believe Im half way to being in the 10's!

1lb off this week. Im totally on track for getting to target. Sinead- total loss to date 4st 13lbs, 4 stone 8lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 22lbs, 1 stone 9lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs, 92lbs to go Rigby -...

Good on you for sticking with it and finding another group. Good luck with tonight!

1lb off this week :)

1lb off this week :)

1lb off this week! Slow and steady :)

Haha they'd be a strange person if they did.

Well done on the losses so far everyone! Try not to worry about the gain denise as it could be something simple like you're carrying more water or something. I wasn't overly excited about WI today and then this morning I started my totm so now Im really not looking forward to it! Im drinking...

I go running. I went to my partners gym as a guest the other day and it made me realise I really do enjoy just getting outside, what ever the weather! Im starting week 3 of the.bronze award today and started it with a 35 minute walk from town :)

Honk! 11 syns

Ooo peacelily that's brilliant!

Have you tried upping your syns? You do so much activity that maybe your body wants those extra syns. What about your water in take? Are you getting enough. Your body maybe holding onto water due to the exercise. It could just be that you're a slow loser. I tend to lose about 1lb a week which...

I do :) I don't see it as a treat though. Last week I went the gym after WI and needed something quick so I chose some Italian food as it's quite synny but not too crazy like a takeaway. I've saved it for after WI tomorrow as well and made sure it's a green day tomorrow so I can use things as...

Everyone ready for WI tomorrow? Im personally dreading it as I've had a few ups and downs this past week. Im doing a red day tomorrow and today to help retract the damage. Im sure I didn't go too crazy but better safe than a gain!

Well done everyone! This threads amazing to read. I think I may have double posted and increased my weightloss prematurely lol. Can I change mine from 6.5lb lost to 6lb?

Jacket potato with cheese (hea) and beans.

I had a day like this last week on the Thursday and my WI are on Tuesday. I went for a rare meal out and ate lots of fried food...a big old syn fest. I decided to not feel guilty and get back on track by drawing a line and keeping my syns between 5-10. I don't think denying yourself syns for 4...

Honk!

Im going to be really optimistic and say 8lb. Im 11st 8lb at the moment and I'd love to get down to 11st by the end of the month! First WI of August is on Tuesday. Good luck everyone!

Honk for yesterday!

Had my first WI and lost 3lb! So so happy! I wanted to have a nice dinner after my WI but decided I wanted a week being 100% so didn't want to sabotage next weeks weightloss too much so just had a cookie and some pasta and cheese sauce, which took me over syns but nothing as bad as a takeaway...

I had 2 bites of my daughters cookie this morning lol, so Im counting that as 2 syns (it was one of the big bakery ones from morrisons) and Im having a milkybar in a bit and egg mayo for lunch so 7 syns altogether. Ill probably have a hot chocolate or something this evening as well.

Second target reached to lose my first half stone so the next is to reach 11st 7lb. Its 1lb away so really going for it this week to get it. Target after that will be to lose my first stone!

3lb this week for me! Sinead- total loss to date 4st 13lbs, 4 stone 8lb to go JaneN - total loss to date 4lbs, 2 stone 3lb to go newgirl-x - total loss to date 19lbs, 2 stone 0lbs to go Blue Butterfly - total loss to date 6lbs, 92lbs to go Rigby - total loss to date 2lbs, 41lbs to go jules81...

Down to 11st 8lb now! Well chuffed I lost 3lb this week. The 10s are slowly getting closer.

3lb off for me please!

3lb off for me at my first WI at group :D Im well chuffed with that.

Honk!

Amazing thank you :) Well, day before weigh in and Im feeling positive. My consultant just rang! How amazing is she! Its my first week at group so she wanted to know how the first week went. Well today I thinks been a good food day. Had a green day and had: Breakfast - Muller light toffee...

Meant to put this in weight loss diary instead....whoops!

I've put off making a food diary as sometimes I really go off plan but I thought what better way to reign myself in than writing it all down here. Ive been doing SW at home and so far lost 5lb which Im so happy about. Although I get incredible support from this forum I felt I needed to go to...

First WI at group tomorrow and Im bricking it. Had an awful few days to start but since Saturday I've been 100%. It's amazing how much better you feel being completely on plan.

Honk!

Bolognaise for me. It was so so good.

Subscribing to this as I might give it a go after WI on Tuesday. :)

Im back on it! I decided to join a group instead of doing it alone so had my first WI last night and I've kept the 5lb off so still at 11st 11lb. So 12lb to go to get to to 10s!

Wondered if I could join you all :) Im joining SW tonight so getting my initial WI later. Have been doing SW from home for 5 weeks and lost 5.5lb so far but I need the extra push from going to group. Good luck with WI tonight everyone!

Stayed the same this week. Not too worried about that though as I haven't been at all on plan!

Hi Jen! I get stupidly excited knowing there's another runner about. Im doing a local 5 mile race and signed up for the mudrunner in October. Im in a team with my parents and partner called the mudsketeers lol. I did a 4.3 mile today but usually I go by time as Im doing interval training at the...

Now down to 11st 10.5lb. So lost another 1.5lb. Been awol and totally off plan but have got my running schedule down to an art so hopefully that and starting up being back on plan will help the losses keep coming. Only 3.5lb to go an Im half way to the 10s!

Hey everyone Ive been awol for a bit. I wanted to really get into running and started reading 'Run Fat ***** Run' (which btw is awesome) and it mentioned about getting a good running routine going and then sorting out eating habits so that's what I did! I now run 4 times a week and have 2 races...

Another 1lb off for me :)

0.5lb off for me this week :)

0.5lb off this week. Not amazing but it's heading in the right direction so not too downhearted. I've been off plan for a few days so it hasn't come as a surprise.

Got to say, really wasn't keen on them. Think I'll stick with tesco.

Ive lost my 30ds dvd :( Not a clue where it is! I keep meaning to do it again but Ill stick with the zumba dvd instead. Horrible day today and completly off plan. I don't feel like I binged and I kept my meals free but all my family were down for my sisters birthday so I had a small bit of...

Honk for yesterday!

Still 100% from me this week. Went for a 4k run last night and got the 10k race for life tomorrow so hopefully that'll help or a good loss this week. I so so want a 3lb loss out I've never had one that big so not sure if it's achievable for me :/ we shall see :)

Yeah they're the 50% ones. I actually thought the eat smart were one syn so I don't mind them changing the recipe :) I might try these then stock up on them then as they're 2 for £3 at the moment. Thank you!

Will be subscribing to this :) Sounds like it's working really well for you. Good luck and hopefully the lbs will keep falling off and you get your bfp soon.!

Congrats on the 5lb loss. That's brilliant.

They're new I believe so picked some up as there weren't any eat smart ones. They're 62 cals each so I assume they're roughly 3 syns each?

Well done!!!

I believe its syns free :) Im going to put it with quorn when I have it just to add some flavour as apparently it's quite nice. Im going to add chopped tomatoes next time I think as I felt it was lacking something!

So far Ive only planned a flump for later today :/ so might have some cookies this evening to bump the syns up.

Bacon with scrambled eggs and fruit.

Well done jojo! Im feeling very positive today. 5th day on plan now and feeling great.

Honk! 5th day in a row!

Got my slimming world friendly cottage pie in the oven :) i went to use a packet for the favouring but it's 6.5 syns!! I know that would be split between about 4 meals but it didn't seem worth the syns. So just used herbs and worcestershire sauce and no milk or butter in the mash. It's going to...

Well done on the loses so far everyone. Im starting to think about what I can wear for Christmas already. It'll be the slimmest I've been in 4 years!

Lose a lb every week until christmas and thats almost 2 stone off. Never be annoyed with losing just the one humble lb :)

Whoo Well done Emma and Sleepy :)

Wow that's some list! Think I might take my 'before' photo tonight :)

I just googled weight loss christmas tree and someone from this site had done one so I just redrew it :) Its a brilliant motivator and stuck to my fridge so Im always reminded of my goal.

Honk! 4 days in a row now :D

Used 3.5 syns on a small milkybar and will have another 3.5 syns for hot chocolate and marshmallows later. Think Im having philly with my pasta as well so that's another 2 syns. So 9 used for today.

Lost 2lb so 24lb left to go! Got my countdown Christmas tree on the go already as well!

xSinead - 5 stone 8lb to go. JaneN - 2 stone 3lb to go - 4lb lost newgirl-x - 3 stone 5lbs to go (10lbs lost) Blue Butterfly - 92lbs to go. 6/98 lost. Rigby - 41lbs to go / 2lbs lost jules81 60lbs to go/0lbs lost Meliososo - 28lb to go/4lb lost Hippychick85- 56lb to go/1lb lost Shnooony - 96lbs...

Thank you both :) I so want my half stone award! I can really notice a difference in my legs now which I think is down to the running so Im going to keep that up. I really have to work on my water intake though as I know Im not drinking enough. Gosh I miss pizza! I keep getting dominos menus...

Reached my first target so new target is 3lb loss to get me to half a stone :)

Hello everyone! Can I join? Just had my WI and am now 11st 12lb :D Hoping to lose 3lb next WI to get to my half stone award (although Im doing it at home so I may just make myself a little sticker lol). Ive been losing 2lb a week since starting 2 weeks ago but I haven't been 100% so this week Im...

Just had my WI :) (well...I got the wii out lol) and lost 2lb this week! :bliss: Im desperatly trying to be 100% this week so I can knock another 3lb off and reach my half stone mark! Now to have breakfast.

Just had my WI and lost another 2lb so I'm outa here!!!!! :bliss:

Honk!

The low fat philly is 2 syns per tbsp but you never really need more than 2 tbsp and that's split between 2 people as well. I find if I get the chives or garlic one then there's alot of flavour in just a tbsp so the milk fills it out and makes it lovely and creamy. I add bacon too just to add a...

I've already used 5 syns on a freddo! Think I'll use some more later for a hot chocolate and marshmallows 3.5syns. Maybe some ketchup with dinner as well.

I use the bachelors pasta and sauce packets. I actually have a book of SW sauces. I tried making the carbonara sauce but I really wasn't impressed and a mixed veg sauce but it was a bit odd :/ have you tried roasting veg with fry light and whizzing them with chopped tomatoes? I know it's...

Just been for a run in the pouring rain. It was brilliant. About to have lunch and really not on the mood to cook so looks like its a pasta and sauce with banana and apple for pudding. Get to have it with milk though for my healthy extra which makes it tasty. Just doesn't have the same appeal...

I don't have much advice about eating out really other than trying to find out the foods available before hand so you can do a bit of damage control. I know now that if Im spending the day at my parents for instance then I take my own snacks and something like fry light just to try and attempt...

I considered the online membership but couldn't work out how Id benefit from it :/ Got my second weigh in tomorrow. Im a tad nervous. Tried on the jeans that made me want to lose weight yesterday and they were very lose around the waist which spurred me on. They've officially become my...

Honk! 11.5 syns used!

Meatballs and pasta in tomato sauce. :)

Will be making this tonight thank you :)

Going to try these this week! Thanks.

Honk!!

So far a dash of milk (1 syn) and a slice of nimble wholemeal bread (2.5 syns). No idea what else Ill have. Might keep the syns fairly low to even out over syns from the weekend :)

Aww redmel xx you're not failing. Just having an off month. I've had an awful two days but each day you can start fresh!

Do you want to lose a certain amount by a certain time? Because mine was Christmas I made a weight loss tree for the fridge and colour a bauble in every 2lb lost. Bit of a.visual for me and its small goals to aim for. Maybe try something like that. Also I set myself mini goals and will treat...

I went a bit mad on the popcorn tonight. Think the 4k run in the morning might help shift the guilt though :) 100% on plan as of tomorrow until weigh in and making sure I drink plenty of water. I so want another 2lb loss! I've had a major sweet tooth today for no reason so hopefully that will...

Hazebabes, you're in almost the sane situation as me (except I had my girl 2 years ago in August lol). I have 28lbs to lose and hope to get there by Christmas. As well as this thread there is a swimming world from home and a Christmas countdown to sexy which will officially start on Tuesday :)...
