Thanks hun :D Sent from my GT-I9300 using MiniMins.com mobile app

Does anyone have a list of free foods on Discovery plan please? :)

Brill, thank you!!! :) xx

Hey :D Thanks for the reply. And thanks for the congrats - it's so exciting but also so stressful! If I could just lose a little bit so that I feel more confident then that would be fab! I'll head on over to the main vintage board and say hello :) xxx

5 weeks until I get married and I need a major butt kicking!! Anyone wanna get stuck into this for the next 5 weeks? I'm so disappointed with myself for letting my wedding get this close without losing the weight :mad:

Ohhh I'd love to know the points in Chinese food too please :) Singapore Chow Mein, plain rice, salt & pepper chicken, beef kung po? Thanks in advance xxx :D

Ohhhhh yeah if (on the odd occasion) I have any curry left over, it's always soooo yummy for breakie!

Thanks hun :) Yep, things have gone really well today :D

Excuse the typos :p

Hey! Think this is fab, give us chance to get to know people for more than just their weight loss and/or struggles! Hope you don't mind me butting in :) Do you watch Wimbledon? No, I hate it. I'm a true fat bird at heart ... hate all sport. Possibly allergic to it! ;) Have you got any pets...

Thanks both :) Ohhh now I also remember something about 123 Success. It's all confusing haha. I ordered the books a few days ago but they still haven't arrived. I'm currently using this little chart that works out points based on calories and saturated fat. I hope that's right?! It seema...

Just wondering cause I've ordered some old books off eBay and they're for 'Pure Points'. I did an old points system about 6 years ago and did really well. Now I'm all confused as to what's what?! xxx

Hun, that's still fab! Every loss is great, epsecially after coming on to it from another diet :D I'm gonna give it a month too, see how I get on. I expect to stay the same or maybe put on a lb my first week, but then I'm hoping I start to lose. I'll keep my fingers crossed for both of us :p...

Hey hun :) Thanks for your reply. I've been doing Atkins (only for 4 weeks) but I'm missing SW. I think I'm gonna do red days for a while too cause I really don't want to put the stone back on that I've lost on Atkins. Maybe I'll gradually introduce the odd green day after a while. Looking...

Hey :) Just wondering if anyone has moved from Atkins to SW, and if so what kind of results did you have? Thanks in advance :D

Exa08 ... How's it been going now? Hope people's advice helped you :)

I have been craving ice cream too, so no judgement from me that you caved in to that hun. Thanks for the advice :D I never eat any refined carbs/sugar etc. I meant things such as sausages and nuts. I still stay within 20g of carbs, but I know I shouldn't be eating those on induction. The diet...

Hey :) A few people have told me that you shouldn't do too much exercise on Atkins because it can be dangerous. Are they just being ridiculous or is there some form of truth in there? Someone also mentioned it can have a negative effect on those doing low carb/high protein. I just want to go...

Well it seems to be working for me. 20g of carbs each day for the last 5 days and I've lost 7lbs :) Think I'll just carry on like I'm doing and see how I go. It worked last time and I did it or a few months :) xx

Thanks hun, glad I'm not the only one :) xx

Hey :D I've started Atkins this week as I did pretty well on it about 10 years ago. Back then I just stuck to 20g carbs a day, I honestly don't remember reading about the 12-15g of veg back then?! Is this something new? Does anyone else just stick to 20g and do their own thing? I've done that...

Canterberry, I feel the same as you :/ However I am determined this time!!! Have been successful with SW, WW and low carb in the past but I've tried all of these recently and I just can't seem to get my head into it. After a week I'm stuffing my face again!! I'm hoping low cal will help as I...

Yeah, I've lost 6lbs :) So chuffed. Was lagging a bit today but apart from that I feel fine :) You weighed yourself yet? xx

Hey guys. I'm on my second day of my low carb diet and I feel completely fine. My appetite seems suppressed already and I've not had any cravings! I'm not even craving crisps ... And it normally kills me not to eat crisps everyday!!! Now I'm worried that I'm not doing is right?! Anyone else...

Hey everyone, Just wondered if people could tell us what they like to eat at mealtimes or for snacks. This may give others like me a little help. I just want to make sure I don't get bored with the same foods. Thanks guys :)

If something is less than 40 calories it will be 1 propoint anyway. If its 19 cals or under it is 0 propoints. Don't forget if you have more than one, it may then have a propoint value. Hope that makes sense :) xxx

Thanks Hun, I really appreciate your advice :) I'll write down everything I have so I can see where I went over. Better get my ass down the gym ... :/ xx

Hey guys, I was soooo in the zone with my diet but last night me and my bf had a kebab and now today I've had a Subway. It's my bf's birthday today too so we're going for a Chinese buffet tonight with his family. Oh, and then we're away for the weekend. I feel that I've got no chance of...

Yes, I think I'll go for the higher values too, best to be safe than sorry. How crap that they couldn't answer this for you though!!! Thanks for your reply :)

Sorry, I didn't read this properly! I thought you was making your own :/ I'd hazard a guess at approx 12 points x

If you make homemade red sauce that would be free. Pasta sheets are 2 each. Veg is free. So just check your white sauce and there you go :) If you let me know what white sauce you're using I can check for you x

Just a few suggestions: Indian Chicken Tikka -14 Prawn Jalfrezi - 16 Chicken Balti - 18 Plain Naan - 12 Boiled Rice - 12 Poppadom - 4 Chinese Hot & Sour Soup - 4 Kung Po Chicken - 9 Mushroom Chow Mein - 6 Special Chow Mein - 9 Beef & Green Peppers in Black Bean Sauce - 12 Italian Seasonal...

Hey, I've been looking through my eating out guide and noting the points for Indian food, as this is my favourite take-away. But then I've noticed the eating out guide on the WW website and the difference is so much! How can this be when both sources are officially WW?! The website link is...

Bit sad, but I read forums and have my books at all times. I get a bit obsessed to be honest, but it helps me stay on track. Some may think I get too into it, but if this is how I'm going to get fit and healthy then so be it :)

I've got it at 7pp :)

Ok, mushroom chow mein is 6 points, so I'd guess the veg chow mein is the same. Boiled rice is 12. I have no idea about the mushrooms in gravy, but the mushrooms are free and I doubt the gravy is more than about 5. Seeing as you shared this meal it's a pretty good choice :) :) xx

Mmmmm, I'd like to know this too, it's my fave from the Chinese take-away!

I'm going on averages so this is approximate. Fried rice 16pp, chips 14pp. A veg curry is 8pp so I'm guessing it's about the same for just curry sauce. I use Yeung's Chinese Curry Sauce and it's just like take away sauce but works out lower points :) Don't stress too much, you get your weekly...

It really drives me mad that you pay to join and to meetings and then you can't really follow the diet unless you shell out more money!!! You pay enough out anyway ladies! For a quick guide, divide the calories by 40. It works 99% of the time, I always use it. Just don't use it on alcohol! X
