Sorry for the repost but it seems most the threads that came up were quite outdated. Can anyone tell me (not joining till next week and just trying to get an idea of foods to eat) what the syns are like on the Sainsbury's BTY flavoured cottage cheese? Thank you in advance.

That sounds ... Horrible. o_o

I don't mind it in things so yogurt is fine for me, it's just straight and no eggs either. :P Fussy old sod aren't I?

Change your 'treat' day? My meeting is at lunch time so I'm hoping the loss will spur me on to do better next week. :)

The Hunger Games. Big fan of the book, love the movie. Though I know some people really didn't.

Something that's going to be quite hard to get my head around for me, is eating in the mornings. I know it's so bad not to but I just never have. I don't like milk so cereal is off limits for me. What do you eat for breakfast?

Same here! I bought a new pair of boots for finally deciding to man up and make the change. An extended family member has also said for every stone I lose he will pay me £10. £10 is £10 so yay.

Same here.

Yay someone that knows what they are! :D

It means your body is using fat for energy. It can come from your body or whatever you ate.

That makes me feel much better. That's the only thing I keep worrying about! Haha seems so silly.

I'm currently a size 22/24 and I'd ideally like to get down to a 14/16, the only thing that really scares me is the thought of being left with extra skin. I don't want to have to banish it through operations. Has anyone shrunk this much or more and not had any problems? If so how? I know it...

The diet drinks are even worse than the ones full of sugar as they're loaded with aspartame. Your body thinks you're having sugar when you're not so you later crave it.

For me not feeling so uncomfortable when it's hot. Not feeling like everyone is staring at me and thinking 'look how fat she is' and being able to wear Black Milk leggings, because they are quite frankly the most awesome things ever.

Thanks for all your replies, definitely taking it all in! :) And I will be taking photos/measurements before I start. Looking forward to having support at group and at home via this forum! :)

I'm not doing it till I join just trying to grasp things as I know it can be a lot to take in at first. I think I'll be planning meals though as it seems an easier way of doing things firstly but also as you say, no wastage hopefully. I'm really excited though.

Everyone keeps telling me this 'the more you eat' thing and it's so mind boggling that things like Super Noodles and pasta are FREE. o_o Plus I love fruit but everyone (when I used to diet at home) used to lecture me on the sugar intake and what not so that's good to hear that fruit and veg are...

I do believe in confidence and having the ability to look how you choose but her poor kids will no doubt spend most of their adult life without a mother. And that's a real shame. :(

Hey there! So I thought I would join up so I can have some online support for when I start SW next week. I'm 23, been a big girl all my life and whilst I am mostly happy and confident (size 22) I do want to improve my health and not drop down dead any time soon. Morbid, but true. I have a...
