Hi everyone, Since next week is meant to be beautiful weather we're planning on having a few BBQs in the garden for tea. Nothing fancy or over the top but just thought it would make a nice change. I don't know about anyone else but I always find my homemade burgers fall to pieces on BBQs! So...

Hey everyone! So I had plans to go out for a girly night out on Friday so I was saving my points for that. But we've had to cancel and rearrange because of various things which means I've got a full, normal week! I can use weeklies as I wish, I can eat normal meals without having to box clever...

Hey! Posting late to log Saturdays eats. Am at work on my third night shift- oh the joys! I weighed myself on Friday and from tues-fri I lost 6lbs on simple start. Clearly I was very bloated and in need of some hydration and decent food. I weighed early as I was getting bored of simple start...

Hey everyone Pleased to report a good day on plan yesterday! I went to they gym too, so happy with that. They gym was so hard though, just goes to show what a week off can do to you. Filling myself with sugar and rubbish has clearly affected me more than I thought! Today I'm meeting up with...

Hey everyone, So day 1 of being back on plan starts now! Still technically on holiday as I'm not back in work til Thurs night but better to start today! As I said in my post yesterday I feel physically horrid for what I've eaten. I'm still feeling bloated and have tummy ache but I know the...

Sneaking back in....... So disappointed to report that I've had a week off plan. And not just a little bit- entirely off plan! Alcohol, take away, meals out, chocolate....you name it I've consumed it. I know we had a week off work and loads of stuff on but I'm gutted I didn't keep some control...

Hey! So the weekend was naughty but tracked so don't feel too bad! Got weighed this morning and saw a loss of 3lb so pleased with that. This week is going to be a nightmare in terms of being on plan as we're on leave and have loads planned. I'm just going to be uber good where I can and hit...

Could somebody update mine please to say 3lb loss? On my phone and can't figure out how to do it! Thanks!

Morning everyone, My annual leave has officially started! Yay! Not so yay for WW though as we have quite a lot planned. Tonight we're driving to my Warrington to see my family which will involve alcohol and and a buffet tea. My mum claims she'll 'do healthy stuff' but our definition on that...

Hey everyone, Bit of a weird food day today! Me and OH are going to the cinema with some friends tonight which would have been completely fine diet wise. Then the bombshell of an all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet got dropped on me! Disaster. They do have a stir fry station so would be covered by...

Hey everyone 2 left agh so excited! It's my best friends hen do this weekend so it's going to be very pointy and naughty. I'm gonna end up gaining for definite as I've not had much time to exercise either. Think I might drag myself to the gym after work in the morning- it'll be painful but...

Hey chick thanks for recipe tip! I did C25K on my iPhone and did it in the gym as there's nowhere to really run near me and I was too self conscious at first! I have to say as someone that has never been able to run its great! Weeks 1-4 are nice and steady and I actually enjoyed them! It jumps...

Morning diary! I start a row of 8 night shifts tonight and am really not looking forward to them! I've been off for a week and its always s bit anxiety provoking going back in in case anything has changed etc. I'd kill for an office job about now lol. Food will be a bit back to front for a...

Just imputed everything into the online tracker and if I call today a F&H day I've used 5 weeklies but if I switch to a PP. day I've still got 3 left! I didn't weigh completely accurately but I've over estimated on the chicken and potatoes so I'm changing back to a PP day. Love WW lol x

Good morning diary! I've been a bad bad WWer over the past few days! Off plan completely due to a combination of illness, social events and general lack of motivation. Today I feel bloated and rough so am more than ready to jump back on plan! I've also decided to go it alone. I'm going to be...

Hey! Wasn't sure where to put this thread so here it is! I've been doing SW/WW for 2 years and it's safe to say we're recycling the same recipes to the point where we're sick of it! I mix it up between filling and healthy and propoints depending on what we fancy. I get 32pp a day. So my...

Hi here to follow! I'm an ex-SW member and find the WW meetings so different. I find them less personal and quite scripted compared to the SW groups. I much prefer the WW plan but I'm not keen on the meetings so I'm going to quit them and just do it online. Sounds like you're doing really...

Hey everyone! I've been a bit absent because I've been really poorly. It's sinusitis and a cold- I'm currently deaf lol. Feel a bit better in myself but my head feels all fuzzy and congested. Off work til Thursday night when I start 8 night shifts so need to be better by then. OH seems to be...

Morning diary, I am absolutely full of a cold today :-( I know it's only a cold and I'm being a wuss but I feel awful. My throat is burning, my nose is flitting between running and being blocked and I keep going light headed. Girl- flu is so much worse than man-flu! I really don't want to go to...

Morning diary, Another double shift at work today.....agh! OH is going for a Toby Carvery as well, I'm so jealous but I'm probably better off at work so I'm not tempted. I made a bit of a dent in my weeklies yesterday - I've got 15 left. Not sure how I feel about using them. Part of me thinks...

Happy Saturday everyone! Tour de France is here in Yorkshire today so it's hectic wherever you go! We haven't been to watch it as it's such a nightmare getting anywhere near it but all around the city is cycling related stuff. Lovely weather for it as well. Speaking of cycling....my OH got us...

Hey guys! Finally a day off! So happy to sleep in past 5.30 and not be facing a 15hour shift lol. Having a filling and healthy day today and tomorrow so we can have our favourite teas without the weighing and measuring! I have 44 weeklies left at the moment.... Breakfast Bacon medallions on...

Hi everyone! Had a lovely lie in this morning while my OH went for a job interview! He's a mechanic at the moment but absolutely hates it and has been looking for a way out for ages. He had an interview for a parts advisor/warehouse work all in one but he's convinced he hasn't got it. They...

Thanks for this! Lasagne isn't bad at all for points! Have you got the points for the chicken tikka masala and the Tennessee chicken breast burger? Probably sky high but they're the ones jumping out at me so far lol X

Tea was lovely so thought if share a quick picture!

Yes it's a WW one it was quite nice x

Hey everyone! Quick post as am at work until 15.30. Such a quick turn around from finishing nights yesterday morning to being back on shift this morning! I'm enjoying the freedom of pointing in that I can have a microwave meal for lunch rather than having to be so prepared the night before all...

Hi! I'm going out for lunch/tea with a friend on Sunday and we're more than likely going to be heading to wetherspoons. I'm saving all my weeklies and activity points for this day as we're planning a few drinks (well ok, a LOT of drinks!) so I'm hoping to stay within my dailies on the food...

MOrning diary, Cheeky work post as I am on yet another double shift! It's been so hectic so far which is really unusual for a Sunday morning - typical when I'm so tired! Food went well yesterday, I still have 14 weeklies left for today and tomorrow so am interested to see what weigh in results...

Goooood morning! Gorgeous weather here today, makes me want to crack open the BBQ but unfortunately that's not an option as we have to go to a family party tonight. I'm driving as on yet another 15 hour shift tomorrow :-/ Used 17 weeklies in the end yesterday but I pointed everything and...

Hi everyone! Another double shift for me today....but I've managed to get out and about quite a bit and done a nice 2 mile walk in the sunshine. Food has been pretty samey as a result of having to bring it to work. Having some Pimms tonight instead of wine as OH found a bottle in the cellar...

Thanks for the replies ladies! As it turns out I've picked up an overtime shift on Friday now so will be having tea at work rather than a take away. But I will indulge in my prosecco when I get home. Would a bottle be 20points then? Realistically I'm gonna drink the whole thing so might as well...

Morning everyone! I'm writing this in work as I attempt to do the rotas for the ward....not a pleasant or easy task! I'm going for a quick food shop (does anyone else feel like they are constantly shopping lol!) afterwards then hitting the gym for another 5k. I put in my activity points out of...

Hi everyone! Thanks for all your lovely messages :) I'm really pleased with that result and hoping that it continues in a downwards direction! I think after one successful week I'm more trusting of the plan and the fact that I really can eat crumpets and lose weight lol. This week I'm going to...

4.5lbs off! So chuffed! Thanks for all your lovely messages x

Good morning everyone! Weigh day has arrived....countdown to 6pm begins lol. Meeting my maid of honour today to go and have a mooch around the wedding departments. I've got 5 bridesmaids so will be getting their dresses online due to the price but there's no harm in looking :-) Light eating...

Not at all the more the merrier! Congrats on the wedding and the 3lbs! That's great. Have you got your wedding dress yet? I'm flabbergasted by how much all things wedding cost! X

Just back in from the gym and I am exhausted! 613cals burnt in 50mins as I did 5k of interval training. Am doing race for life next weekend so am going to repeat this a few times between now and then. Shame I can't eat my activity points yet!

Happy Monday everyone! Start of a new week and tomorrow is weigh in. I'm really nervous- I don't feel like I've lost anything at all and I know I'll be devastated when I get on those scales tomorrow. I'm used to losing big numbers in my first weeks on plan (6lbs on SW both times I restarted)...

The only thing I worry about with pp days is that I'll be starving! Having done SW for so long I've got a skewed vision of what a normal portion is and as a result have a huge appetite! So maybe F&H is the way to go in the main. Do you still accumulate activity points on F&H or just pp days? I...

Hiya I get married at the end of March 2015! So final fittings for my dress is last weekend of January. To be honest I felt amazing when I tried it on - I was so nervous about dress shopping but its so true that when you know, you know! I just want this 2.5 stone off to feel better in...

Morning My bright and early post today as I am on a double shift at work (boo!) Had to be very prepared food wise to make sure I stay fully on plan. Yesterday was quite good in the end. My niece was an absolute gem, really well behaved. She was dressed like a little princess and acted like one...

Morning! Happy Saturday yay! The weather is awful today- cloudy, a bit rainy but so so humid it feels horrible :-( definitely not in the mood for a children's birthday party! Oh well, family commitments and all that. Today's simple start day looks like this: Breakfast Sandwich thins, bacon...

No I didn't cook it but at do should have done as it was still a bit crunchy but I liked it lol x

It was great! I worry I'm very carb-heavy but if I was doing propoints it would only have been 3. It was filling and tided me over until tea! I can tell I've been off plan for a few weeks because I'm starving since starting WW. I'm eating plenty but obviously I was stuffing myself so much...

Hey! So day 3 on plan is going well so far. I've been to Asda to grab a few bits to prepare for yet another BBQ we're going to tomorrow. It's our niece's 1st birthday and they're having a garden party and BBQ so I'm being organised to avoid temptation! Anyhow back to today.. Breakfast...

Thanks hun!

Thanks! Still getting my head around it having changed from SW. It's not massively different so far but in enjoying it!

Hi Does anyone know if these bags fall into the 'flavour boost' section and are therefore allowed on simple start? Found a couple in my cupboard to use up (sweet & sour and paprika) alongside the WW one I bought at group which is 0 points and allowed on simple start Thanks!

Hi! Day 2 and I've had an NSV! Had a BBQ at work that I cooked but I resisted the calorie ridden burgers and stuck to plan. Here's today's menu Simple start Breakfast Shredded wheat & skimmed milk Lunch Whole wheat pasta, chicken, bacon, passata, peppers and onions Tea Beef...

Hi everyone! I joined a meeting last night having previously been a SW member. I lost almost 4 stone with SW but I've become bored and stuck in a rut with it so here I am! We get married in March and I have my dress but can lose around 2 stone to feel better but not alter the dress too much...

I'm joining WW tonight and I'm actually really excited! I've tried to do a shopping haul of things I'll be able to have on the plan but its been a bit of guesswork without the books etc. Fingers crossed!

Well everyone..... This is my last post on this diary as tomorrow night I'm joining WW. I've researched and thought long and hard. I need a change. I've been doing SW for 2years now and I've been stuck in a rut for the last year if I'm honest. I've loved the recipes and I would recommend it to...

Definitely that would make more sense! Is the Simply Filling one and old plan? Current plans should def have a sub forum x

Brilliant! I'm really looking forward to getting started, once I get to group and get the starter pack and a magazine I'm sure I'll get it! Do you have a diary? X

Thanks for the reply Hun! So on F&H you don't have the 2 items from the treat list? Is that why this is more SS than F&H? Xx

Sorry to jump on your thread but I have the exact same fear if being starving! Can't get to a meeting until next week so could a kind person work out my pro points please? Age 29 Height 5f 4 Weight 14st 9lbs Occupation nurse so fairly active and exercise twice a week Thanks!

Hi everyone! I've seen the list of foods on the filling and healthy plan and if in understanding it right I've cobbled together a sample day. Could people offer me any feedback as to if this is accurate...I'm not 100% about things like if skimmed milk is 'free'? Also would I still get weeklies...

Hi Has anyone done a recipe for Mexican food, in particular fajitas and enchiladas that are low in points? Thanks

Hello fellow defectors! I'm still in 2 minds about what to do....the only thing putting me off leaving SW is losing some of the meals my partner and I love and have found SW versions of: enchiladas, fajitas, burgers, pulled pork being the main ones! Getting my head around new plans appeals to me...

Can i ask what the difference between filling and healthy and propoints days are? Can you mix the plan us and do a day of each like SW red, green and EE? Thanks all for your advice it's really helpful! x

EE A- 35g halloumi B- 60g wholemeal bread

Morning diary, On a late shift today whilst OH is off- boo! Hate lates they are so anti social and I think I'm working with some of the laziest staff I've ever had to work with! Not a good combo Anyway here's today's foodage- not particularly interesting lol EE Breakfast Sausage & halloumi...

Hey chick! I remember you making egg wraps a while back- are they literally a rolled up omelette? X

Thanks for the replies everyone! I really don;t know much about WW....could I pick your brains please lol? Are fruit and vegetables pointed or "free"? Things like tinned toms and passatta- could I use them as I wanted or would they be pointed? Is whole wheat rice/pasta lower points than white...

Morning diary, So I've spent some time researching weight watchers this morning in the great debate about jumping ship. I'm so unsure about what to do. If I'm brutally honest with myself I know I haven't been giving SW 100% commitment for a long time, partly because I've had lots of social...

Soooooo I've been looking at Rochelle's diary and seen how well she's done with a change of eating plan. I'm seriously considering a jump to the dark side lol. Weigh watchers has always panicked me in terms of feeling hungry and like I'm 'on a diet' because SW is great for not doing this in the...

Hi everyone, I've been doing Slimming World for 2 years and have lost 4 stone and maintained that. It's been great and I loved the fact there were so many recipes and I was rarely hungry. However, I have another 3 stone to budge and I feel a bit stuck and a bit 'burnt out' with the plan. I...

Hey Stevie.. Noticed a while back you got a coffee form Costa/starbucks/nero place. Do you have any idea if a skinny latte is my milk allowance or if I will still need to add syns? Also are the sugar free syrups syn free? Thanks!!

Morning diary, Another long day for me today. Am meant to be doing the rotas this morning and on shift this afternoon. Annoyingly the system for doing the rotas has gone down and I can't do them until 12 noon. So a job that I initially had 6 hours to do I now only have 1.5 to do it! Stress...

Hi there! Writing a quick cheeky post at work. Am on a double shift and the patients are having a BBQ tonight....it is not even slightly SW friendly so I will be steering clear! This lovely weather has just highlighted how much I'm looking forward to proper summer. Last year I did a lot of red...

Morning diary! Feeling a bit better today after yesterday's gain. I know I had a bit of an indulgent Sunday but I followed that up by having a saintly week so I'm a bit disheartened that I can't ever have an off plan day without it resulting in a gain. Oh well, time to accept that and move on...

An annoying +0.5lb gain! Grr x

Hey diary Weigh day tomorrow and I'm dreading it. Been good all week but haven't been able to get to they gym because of work and I did have an off plan weekend. So basically I've been syn free since Monday in an attempt to get at least a maintain. Fingers crossed! To make matters worse I'm...

They are amazing! I bulk bought for delivery as I'm nowhere near a seller. I got 6 packs of sausages (6 in each pack), a pack of bacon and 2 Chinese chicken fillets and 2 peppered chicken fillets for £30 with delivery. Well worth it as I'd spend more than that in the supermarket.

Listen chick, SW works, WW works, calorie counting works. They all help people lose weight by focusing on different things. It's about picking the one that suits you and your lifestyle, your mindset and makes you feel comfortable. That was SW but it isn't anymore and that's ok. Calorie counting...

Aw Hun I'm sorry the hear you struggling. Something's clearly changed in your mind because before Xmas you were so focused and so good at SW and now you seem to be wavering. I agree totally that calorie counting is more freeing because you can make more choices. I can't cope with calorie...

Resist!! You can do it! I think with your monthly unjustified gains its a really good idea if you can do it. An overall loss will be great! Yeah I'm happy with 1.5lbs especially after last week's bigger loss. I think I'm such a number chaser though- always want more than I got!
