Thanks Sarah. I've laid off the bread for two days and noticed that my symptoms have calmed down an awful lot!! Think SW is the option for me - simply filling allows me to indulge in bread which clearly isn't great for me! X

My hubby is Brazilian and we eat here loads! So easy to stay on plan- loads of meat, rice, beans and salad. The hard part is turning down the sausages, garlic bread and desserts...! Enjoy!

I lost 3 stones on slimming world and have been at target for over a year and a half now. I decided to switch to simply filling to give my body a change. I've noticed that since I started, my body seems to be rejecting me eating more bread and cereals. (I *think* that's what it is) I've had...

5.5 syns!

I am 5'8 and initially set my target at 11 stone. I've since lowered it to 10 stone 7 as this feels more comfortable for me. For my wedding I would like to get to 10 exactly, but maintain around 10 4-6 for the long term :-)

I've lost 3 stone and went from a 14 top to a 10 top and 16 bottom to 12 and occasionally 10. So 1.5 stone per dress size for me!

I use Makro too, went last night actually... We spent £150 on meat but that does two big gym going protein eaters a whole month, even more of salmon, steak, pork steaks, chicken breasts. We have two freezers and filled 5 drawers with meat!

Start weight 13 stone 8 pounds was size 14 top 16 bottom. Target weight is 10 stone 7 but currently under at 10 stone 4. Now size 10 top and 12 bottom but occasionally 10 in dresses. Want to lose 4 pounds to change target to 10 stone which would hopefully make me a size 10 overall.

That sounds ace... And Preston isn't that far from me in manchester? Might see if a few of my gym gang fancy it?

My advice is to start ASAP. I exercised whilst on my journey to target. I've lost 3 stone 2 pounds and my body looks so much firmer and I have muscle definition. I do exercise a lot, between 6-8 hours when working and 8-10 when on school holidays but I love it!

I bought a polar HRM. On average I tend to burn: Pump- 400 Combat- 500-620 depending on instructor and extra tracks!! Attack 600-620 Zumba 500 with my bestie instructor and 350 with others Spin 350-400 for 45 mins Gina- I'm amazed at the cals you burn!!!

I did the grit cardio one- was so so hard! And I'm used to attack on a regular basis! I regularly do attack, pump, combat and RPM and also add in Zumba for a bit of fun and extra calorie burn. So about 8-10 hours per week.

I used to do body balance but the instructor now just isn't my cup of tea... It's like a fusion of yoga, Pilates and tai chi. It's nice when you have a great instructor! Tried GRIT for first time last week.... Ouch!!!!! It's hard!

I met target in December 2012 and have since maintained my weight through exercise. I want to reduce my target by 7lbs but have found it hard to lose any more weight. I had to take a hard look at what I was consuming and I came to the conclusion that although I was following SW 100%, I was...

I've been spinning for a few weeks too... I bought a gel filled seat cover as it hurt so bad! Not my favorite gym class but its good to have a change now and again... :-)

Yeah, really looking forward to a new challenge and role and learning new skills. My school is about 15 mins from my house, perfect distance!

Body attack is hard until you get used to it, takes about 3-4 classes until it stops feeling like you are dying!

Did new combat last night and loved it!

I do looooooads of classes at the gym but my favorites are body pump, body combat, body attack, Zumba and dare I say it, spin!

I currently teach year 5 but I'm training to be a reading recovery teacher in September so won't have a class. What year do you teach? Is your new school near your new place?

I teach in Chorlton. Do you have a job for September lined up?

Haha me too! Finish this Friday :-)

About 20 mins from me then, but not too far from city centre :-)

I'm in Manchester :-) South manchester to be precise! Where are you moving to?

Love love love the new attack release!

July 13/14 for us at LA fitness but I've got my 10k race on the 14th so no new releases for me!

It's free x

Yep it is!

Think I have nearly every one going! I sit down with my books before I go shopping for the week and plan out my meals in advance.

Fitting in size 10 sample wedding dresses! Started at a 16!

Going for attack release today can't wait :-) bring on the burn!

Wow that's a massive class! We have a tiny studio, 25 people max!

What's CXWORX like?

I did the brand new release of attack tonight...! Ouch going to hurt tomorrow! :-)

I love them, they played a massive part in my weight loss and how my body looks today. I've gained a lot of muscle :-) You can do it, anything is possible in a month!

Curly Wurly for 6 syns and a Galaxy bubbles hot chocolate for 2 syns. Perfect for evening after dinner watching telly!

I'm also a big Les Mills fan- regularly do pump, combat, attack and balance plus Zumba and ocasionally lbt! I am at target and have been since Dec 12th 2012 :-) Finding that I've still had to continue the EE plan to maintain though I've been able to increase my meals and drinks out with...

Launch day was gooooooood! Really enjoyed both pump and combat releases! Especially the no parle americano song in combat release!

Curly Wurly - 6 Danio passion fruit yogurt - 1.5 Options hot choc - 2 = 9.5 :-)

Yes cherry is also 1.5

Syn free SW chips with spaghetti hoops Frozen raspberries mixed with 0% plain yogurt

Thanks for tip- will stock up today as they are open until 7!

I also adore these! I'm on a high protein diet as im trying to build lean muscle at the gym so these are perfect at 1.5 syns for passion fruit!

Yay! Launch weekend is next weekend for me at LA fitness :-)

I get married in 551 days :-) I got to target before Xmas after a loss of 2 stone 8. Want to ideally lose another 6 pounds though. Going to try dresses on during Easter holidays, excited!

Haha me too! Stuck with 3kg dumbells :-)

Pump 84 done :-) loving it!

I know! I'd done combat for about 6 months before I tried attack, and thought I'd find it easy.... BIG mistake! Tough class!

Did new attack and balance tonight. Feels goooooood! :-)

This year I got my resolution - to lose 2.5 stone and meet target. What does 2013 have in store??? oI would like to initially maintain my loss but possibly renegotiate target to lose another 1/2 stone oget defines abs and arms with help from my PT and gym work ochoose my wedding dress and...

I too got to target this week and am terrified of putting on weight over Xmas. I've been amazing this week not touched a single chocolate at work!! Not using my extra HEB as I want to get to lower end of target so that any gain doesn't bring me out of target. Ideally I think I would like to...

I hit target last Saturday! Soooooo happy :-)

We did the new release of BC on Thursday night... Not as impressed with this one :-(

I got my Christmas wish!!!! I met target today!! 2 stone 8 pounds off :-)

I have 1.5 to go to target! Want it off by this weekend!

Me too:-) not long to go!

I'm 1.5 pounds to target and christmas wish. Lots of distractions in the next few weeks but its soooooo close I can almost smell it!

I did pump and combat this morning. Feeling the pain from my increased weights already in pump!

Had a sneaky peek at group - looks fab! Ordered one to collect at next WI for £10. Well worth it.

Attack is the class of the devil! Haha! It's brilliant, but so horrible at the same time! I don't often get to go to attack as its during the week in the morning but when I have a holiday from school I often go :-)

Thanks :-) this time last week I was 6 pounds away and it felt top far away. Now it feels so close!

I'm a big les mills fan too :-) Manage to do 3x combat, 1x pump and 1x balance per week as well as 2x Zumba and some extra cardio/weights stuff that my PT sets me. Total gym convert!

My christmas wish is to get to target - only 2.5 pounds to go :-)

I'm 5'8 and 11 stone 2 and a half. Two and a half from target. Trousers size 12 Top size 10/12 - I needed size 10 for the first time in my life in primary this weekend!

To get to target! Currently 7 pounds to go and 6 weeks!
