I stayed the same on Wednesday so will be here for a long time. As for dress size i take a 16/18. I want to get in to a 14 by the summer and have a pair of jeans and a top to spur me on.

Had a cooking day yesterday. Made carrot and leek & potato soups for lunches next week, lasagna, kheema curry, chili and chicken, spinach and potato curry. Had the chicken curry last night and it was lovely. Got a portion for tomorrow evening as well. Am trying to be 100% after my night out on...

Tonight Im making pulled pork, bbq sauce, lots me veg and maybe roast potatoes. I've got pineapple and melon after.

I love spinach, potato and chicken curry, kheema curry (I made mine with quorn) and turkey meatballs.

I had magic porridge pancakes with a banana and a drizzle of maple syrup. Was lovely.

Well I have been 100% on plan all week. Got a night out tonight so hoping the syns I've not used will keep me from putting on this week. Will just have to be really good the rest of the week until weigh in.

I had a mushroom omelette and salad. Was surprisingly good and filling. Going to have a yogurt for desert later.

Thanks. Will have a look for the March list.

I had a great weekend thanks ally. I think having time off from SW sometimes is good or I just crave the things I shouldn't have. This week I sts which I am pleased with as I expected worse. I am out Friday with the girls from work so saving as many syns as possible for then.

Stayed the same this week so didn't reach my target. I am still pleased with 6 off this month. Will be joining March and looking to loose 7lb.

Well done on all the losses. I sts which Im pleased with as I didn't stick to plan over the weekend and was expecting worse.

Am away for the weekend and after all the rubbish we have had over recent weeks I am going to eat and drink what I want. Back on plan Monday

Im having a chicken Kebab and chips plus wine which will bring me over 15 but will be good after my weekend away.

They look yummy. Thanks

I'm now in the 14s at 14st 12lb. Am aiming for 2lb a week loss so will be here about 6 weeks. My goal is to get to 13st by June :)

Just realised i don't need to be here anymore. Am so glad to be down to the 14s.

2lb off for this week. Im really pleased. Still on target for my major goal in June.

I lost another 2lb this week which leaves me 2 for my Feb challenge. Please could someone update me. Well done everyone.

Well done everyone. I lost 2lb again this week. Am so pleased.

I've been good for most of this week so hoping for a loss tomorrow. OH thinks I will have lost some as he claims my curves are more pronounced. Also I managed to get in to a pair of jeans that were just a bit too tight last time I tried. I have been trying variety of lunches including left overs...

That's good to know when Im out and about.

Today I had cottage pie which was very Yummy.

Was bad yesterday and think for dinner and drinks I had a weeks worth of syns also had carrot cake at work today. With things the way they are Im surprised I've been ok so far. Going to try to get back on track. Promised mum I would make her some bns soup so a good incentive to get cooking this...

Thanks texty.

Think my update got lost is it possible someone could put my 3lb loss on for this week. Thanks.

Thanks for the comment ally. Not been around or up to posting the last few days. Mum is home now but not good news. Have lost 3lb this week though. Hopefully I will be more settled in a few weeks but most evenings we are visiting mum who luckily lives 15 min walk away.

well done to all the losers. I lost 3lb this week if someone could update me please.

I lost 3lb this week, well done to everyone else.

Lost 1lb this week. Not magnificent but still pleased as I've not been focused due to too much going on. Please could someone update me? Well done to everyone who lost.

Lost 1lb this week. Not magnificent but still pleased as I've not been focused due to too much going on. Well done to everyone who lost this week.

Lost 1lb this week. Not magnificent but still pleased as I've not been focused due to too much going on.

Thanks ally. Mum is still in hospital but feeling bit better. Will be a long road to recovery and may include another operation and lots of treatment. As for weigh in I lost 1lb this week but not feeling good or bad about it.

Mum still in hospital very worried about her. Hopefully she will get some pain relief that will help until her referral to the specialist unit. I think I have the best boss ever. I was allowed to leave early today so I came home and prepared dinner ready to put in the oven after visiting the...

Well today I fell off the wagon (so to speak) BIG time. My mum had said yesterday that she felt ill and today was in hospital with a her cancer having grown again. She finished radiotherapy in November and we thought that was it. Now she has a new growth and may need chemotherapy. Mum has one of...

I do get the point in what you say but the 2 types of ham I usually have are syn free so maybe I am a bit lazy in checking. Will make sure I check other brands/types and syn them.

The whole meat thing confuses me . I use lighter choice ham but as i only use one slice in my salad I don't worry about any syn value, I don't think it has any syn value anyway.

I agree he should have gone. There is always one who gets voted on sympathy or comedy or both. I would like people to vote on talent not who they like.

Baileys or rose wine. Oh and I love the favoured ciders especially cloudberry.

Last Christmas by wham! I've got my i pod on random. Also can hear my son singing along or I think that is what he is doing.

Anyone still watching? Its a shame shane went last night. I don't think he was the worst. Joe is rubbish but does make me laugh.

Im going to see UFO in a couple of weeks and download festival in June. Hopefully a few more gigs along the way but none booked as yet.

That looks lovely, I hope everyone enjoys it. Not sure I would have the willpower to resist, it took every ounce of mine to resist pancakes at my mums!

Hi. Good luck this week with your weigh in, you seem so positive which is a great way to be. I had my gall bladder out last year and can sympathise with the pain. I was in agony a lot of the time and any little thing set it off. It was so painful before surgery. Luckily I've had no problems since.

Glad your having a good week. Today I feel like a saint! Went to mums for dinner. She had pancakes for desert as she knows my son lover them. I RESISTED! I went without anything as I was quiet full and didn't want to spoil a good week. Only problem now is she gave us some for tom to have...

Well done to all the looser and hello to all the new 15 ers :-) I had a sneaky peak at the scales today and am hoping for 2lb off this week as that's what its showing today. Just got to be good and 100% until Wednesday.

Today I had: Breakfast - scrambled egg, mushrooms and a slice of wholemeal toast (HEB). Lunch - toffee yogurt, melon selection and a banana. Dinner - roasted veg with extra carrot and broccoli and roast chicken with gravy. Snacks/syns - no snacks as yet but gravy (1.5) and oil (6) used in...

Hi ally, I have work if its a boring day. Im always tempted to snack on things I know I should stay away from. I may have to try BNS soup, seems lots of people make it on here. Will give me some variety for lunches.

Im going to try to have more variety at breakfast and lunch as its been suggested that will help my weight loss rather than my body getting used to the same things.

Hi. I agree about top shop. I just want to be able to get in their jeans so I know I've reached a target. I've not set an ultimate goal yet. Just mini goals. I want to have lost 2 st by June. Works out at under 2lb a week so not impossible. Then another st by my birthday at the being of...

Been sorting out my kitchen cupboards this weekend to not much cooking. Last night as I was on my own I just had stir fried veg with a bit of chili and soy sauce. Was lovely though. Going to mums for dinner tonight and she is doing a roast with SW friendly roast potatoes. Just been to tesco...

Slice of wholemeal bread with scrambled egg and mushrooms cooked in frylight. Yummy.

Today or technically yesterday I had: Brunch - bacon, egg, mushrooms, beans and smash with a slice of wholemeal bread (HEB) and butter. Dinner - stir fried veg with some soy sauce. Muller light vanilla yogurt. Snacks/syns - some grapes, banana and butter (about 6 syns as son buttered bread!)...

I had a load of stir fried veg with a dash of soy sauce. Was lovely.

yesterday I had: Breakfast - cherry muller light yogurt and a banana. Lunch - salad and chicken, toffee yogurt and 2 satsumas. Dinner - beef stew which had lots of veg in it. Snacks/syns - apple, slice wholemeal toast (HEB) options white hot chocolate (2 syns) made with milk (HEA) . Drinks - 6...

I like my eye colour, dark blue and the fact that whatever size I am I have reasonable boobs even though gravity is starting to take effect.

I use the app on my phone most of the time. Not as good as the full website but ok for nipping in and out

... it's the weekend, you have no work and you wake up before your alarm would have gone off!! So much for my lay in.

3 weeks too late but I've just seen this. Wonder what my boss would think if I stood up to work!

I very often have weetabix or yogurt with banana. Going to read through this thread for ideas.

That's such a noticable difference, you look great in both photos.

I had beef stew cooked in the slow cooker followed by a banana and banana and custard muller **** yogurt. I put loads of veg in so didn't do any extra veg or salad.

Well done on weighing lighter than October. You must be pleased. I need to make some soups for work rather than salad everyday.

Sound advice and hopefully I will feel more confident as I start to loose more.

Good luck. Great loss already well done x

Good luck. There are loads of recipes on here that can give you ideas for tasty meals. There are also lots of threads on syn values. Plus someone will always help if you need it x

Good luck, you've done well already x

I just worked out that from my original weight 2 years ago I've lost 10k! When I was weighed at the hospital last Jan I had lost 5k so even though I've put some one since my lowest last June I still think overall Im off to a good start. Mind you I still hate kilos and don't really use them.

Hi. Thanks. The savory rice sounds good and I will have to look out for the deli boxes. Anything easy helps lol. Tomorrow I may have a change as Im home and can do some cooking.

Wow you can really see the change. Well done. I wish i had done that although with my patchwork stomach i don't think i would ever show anyone lol

Good luck with your weight loss. You've done really well so far. I started at the same time. Do you find it easy? Funny enough my first big target is to get in to some top shop jeans. I would love to be able to go in to any shop and know they will have my size and not have to look at the back in...

Thanks for the advice. I do mix up evening meals but find it hard at lunch finding things to eat that i can take to work that require little effort and the microwave is rubbish. Will have a think over weekend and see if I can plan some new things. Breakfast is another easy option but will also...

Well today I had: Breakfast: weetabix (HEB), banana and milk (HEA). Lunch: ham salad and muller light yogurt Dinner: quorn lasagna with salad and strawberries for desert. Snacks/syns: 2 satsumas, some berries and an apple, curly wurly (6 syns) and option white chocolate hot chocolate (2) Total...

Thank Chelle. Ally well done on your loss, your doing great loosing every week. As for what I ate last week well I was good and followed the plan 100% during the week days. I had veg with every meal, lunch was salad and a slice of ham max. I. Also had fruit for snacks most of the time and kept...

Lots of great losses this week and good luck to you all for the next weigh in.

Well I lost 6lb this week and Im walking on air. Had to get off the scales and back on again before I believed it lol. Went out straight from work today to the Harvester. I was really good. No starter or desert. For main I had chicken breast, jacket potato with sour cream and peas. I also only...

I would like to loose 8lb in Feb to get me well on my way to 2st by June.

Well today I had: Breakfast: weetabix (HEB), banana and milk (HEA). Lunch: ham salad and muller light yogurt Dinner: chicken, salad, jacket potato with sour cream and peas at Harvester. Plus a roll. Snacks/syns: 2 satsumas, some berries and an apple, white roll (9) and sour cream (think this was...

Im staying here this week but would have taken a miracle for me to move down and my 6lb loss is as close to one as I think I can get. Am now 15st 3lb so not too much to go.

Its still a loss. Having read lots on here some people take a slow steady pace whereas others loose a lot for a few weeks and then slow up. Last week was my 3rd weigh in and I stayed the same. Was upset but carried on this week. Good luck for next week. This week I lost 6lb and am shocked but...

I would love to loose 8lb in Feb. It's only 2lb a week but think I will find it hard as I managed 3 in my first 2 weeks.

Well if the chocolate cake was within syns you should be ok and everyone deserves cake sometimes. Im going to get rocky road and chocolate hi fi bars. May try peanut next but doubt I'll like chocolate orange as Im not a fan of orange and chocolate together.

Good luck for tomorrow everyone. I hope I've done well this week its only my 3rd week and I still have no inclining as to how I've done. Maybe a few weeks in I will start to feel a loss or gain in preparation.

Oops didn't keep the diary up very well. Have had a awful weekend followed by two bad days at work. On the food side I didn't eat much on Saturday, missed breakfast had an orange for lunch and left overs for dinner but did have loads of veg. Didn't have either HE and had a very large glass of...

Ooh that sounds nice. Its not the one I've got though. I'll dig it out tomorrow and post it. Glad your soup was still tasty. How do you think you've done this week? I've had a strange and not too great week after the last few days I would normally git the wine or chocolate. I've resisted both to...

Bit late for your shopping trip but i prefer fromage frais as yogurt splits really easy and although the taste is there it does not look as nice.

Good luck. I have a friend who's son is doing slimming world he has lost 9lb in 3 weeks and said its working well for him. Hope it works as well for you.

I may have to try that one just had a look in the kindle store and its cheap enough.

Thanks for your replies. Its good to know that its looking ok and will put syn value down as that's a great idea. Today: Breakfast: 2 weetabix (HEB) with banana and milk (HEA) Lunch: vegetable soup made with all superfree food and raspberry muller light yogurt. Dinner: chicken and mushroom pie...

Thanks ally. If you can't find the chocolate roulade I can put the recipe up, let me know. Well stayed the same but am now keeping a record of everything I eat so hopefully will get better this week. Been very good so far this week, just need it to show on the scales on Wednesday.

Well done on the loss this week. Hope you do well this week.

Thanks texty. I've started keeping a record so hope it helps. Well done this week.

Well today I had: Breakfast: weetabix (HEB), banana and milk (HEA). Lunch: ham salad and strawberry muller light yogurt Dinner: chicken, onion, pepper and mushroom kebab with potato wedges and salad. Snacks/syns: 2 curly wurly, 2 satsumas and an apple. Drinks: 6 black coffee, can diet coke and 6...

Well after staying the same this week Im sure I must be eating too much. I will keep a diary of everything I eat and hopefully someone will read and let me know where Im going wrong. Starting yesterday I had: Breakfast - cherry muller light yogurt and a banana. Lunch - salad and two thin slices...

Well done on all the losses. I stayed the same. Not sure why. Im going to keep a food diary of everything I eat and see if that helps.

Good luck for weigh in. Hope the snow was not too bad. Im not a fan of snow if i have to go out. I like looking at it though.

Weigh in today. Not sure how I've done. I have been good with food but had lots to drink at the weekend. Am also feeling bloated again and what's gone in has not come out for the last few days. Although last week I was worried for nothing so I can't really tell. Yesterday I had lots of free...

Its only 2 syns, although it is a small slice. It was yummy I took some to work and 3 out of 4 liked it. The other does not like raspberries and there are a few in it.

Well done that's great. Not long to go for me and Im dreading it even though I've been good.

Today I had a wholemeal roll and cheese for my burger.

Burger and sw chips with a salad

Good luck tomorrow everyone. I've been good with food but did have a few too many syns drinkwise at the weekend but still hoping to loose.

Good luck at your meeting tonight and with carrying on your amazing weight loss. I've been doing slimming world 3 weeks now and love it. I find it easy to follow and like having syns so I can enjoy the odd treat. There are loads of recipes and ideas on here x

Well the cooking went well. I made carrot soup which we had for lunch and i still have a portion left for lunch tomorrow. I made lasagna for tonights dinner. A chocolate and raspberry roulade which we had for desert and the rest will be consumed tomorrow at work - between 5 of us. In the freezer...

Cocoa powder and castor sugar in my desert which worked out at 2 syns for a portion and lasagna ingredients another 2 syns. Later I'll have a curly wurly bringing my total to 10.

I had lasagna (2 syns) with leeks, carrot and cauliflower followed by chocolate raspberry roll (2 syns) and blueberries. Was yummy

Am off work today due to snow so having a cooking day and getting some meals for the week in the fridge and freezer so i just have to warm them up and make some veg or salad. I seem to spend so much time cooking now I've but out the ready meals and take always. Not sure how I feel about weigh in...

Thanks. Weekend was great and only went over syns on drink so not a dieting disaster at all.

Looks like your doing well and a couple of times going over syns Im sure doesn't make much difference. I can do the food easy and end up having mainly free dinner and lunch so my syns are all snacks and drinks! Went way over on the drinks at the weekend but was a minor blip as I was away. Good...

I like my Wii fit as nobody can see me and I'm as coordinated as a drunk one legged cat! Am on my way to partners for the weekend. I've brought some food to minimise the damage but know a few drinks will be consumed so not holding out much hope for the willpower. Oh well Will try my best.

Well yesterday went fine, I lost 3lb so hope to get half a stone next week. ally, left overs could be good, I sometimes make extra anyway so could have rather than freezing. Hope you got on alright yesterday. Hi becca. How are you finding it so far? also like your pasta idea. Will do a longer...

I lost 3lb again this week. Hopefully I can get my 1/2st next week :) Well done to all the losers on here x

Left over cottage pie and lots of veg. Nice easy meal for what is usually my late day at work.

I may have to try that soon sounds really yummy. Will be trying a few other recipes too thanks for posting.

Hi. I did the dukan diet last year. I lost over 2st but for me it was too restrictive. Even when I was able to have veg I missed fruit so much and didn't feel healthy at all. I started slimming world a couple of weeks ago and lost 3lb in my first week. I love being able to eat lots of fruit and...

Well done to you and your partner, great start for you both. Good luck to both of you for next week and the future.

Finished off the cottage pie tonight. The mash was fine and I didn't really notice much difference. I've used fromage frais in curry and my friend has suggested using it in a leek and mushroom pie rather than a creamy sauce. Going to experiment with that next week. Its a shame your dad notices...

I have been sticking to it but just don't feel any lighter this week. I hope Im wrong. Im nicely stocked up on lots of fruit and veg now. Last week I ran out of fruit so no waste as yet. Good luck for your weigh in, hope you do well this week.

Thanks texty

Its worth reading. My to read list is getting longer thanks to this thread :-)

Im worried about tomorrow. Its only my 2nd week and I don't feel like I've lost anything. Have resisted having a peek at the scales even though I really wanted to. Good luck to all of you for tomorrow.

I've just started the hundred year old man who jumped out of the window. Loving it so far.

Hi. I hate it when I like something and buy other favours that don't live up to the original. Are you finding this healthy/SW food costs more? My food bills seem to be increasing mainly due to all the fresh fruit and veg. Shows how unhealthy I was. Good luck for this week, Im not looking forward...

I made these yesterday using fat free natural yogurt and a packet of plain oats so simple which I mixed up the night before. We had them with bacon. Was a great breakfast thanks for posting the recipe.

Ooh well done on the buffet, resisting tempting food is hard. Im hoping that when I get tempted I can be as good as you.

Well yesterday was quite a good day. I made oat pancakes and bacon for breakfast. Was very nice only problem is I had streaky bacon to use up so I syned it. For lunch I had some of the spicy carrot soup and fruit with a yogurt. Dinner was a cottage pie and salad. Another syn free meal as I used...

Good luck. I've recently started SW and find it easier for me than previous calorie counting and weighing. This site is great for food ideas and syn free recipes. Even my son is pleased that Im doing as he claims the food is lovely.

I had syn free collage pie and salad. It was lovely and I have frozen some for later in the week.

That is me tonight as well. DYJHIW you keep adding to your online shopping and what you though would be a cheap shop is way more than you expected!

Thanks ally they were like the ones listed so 9 syns is fine. Today I was home early so made a spicy carrot soup ready for tomorrow's lunch, going to have it with free potato scones I found on here. Am about to make free chicken curry with rice and veg. I've frozen some yoghurt which we are...

DYJHIW you plan a nice dinner and then find out your son is going boxing on a night he is normally home! Got to cook for 8.30 now. Not much to moan about but still annoys me.

Am going to try this next week

I'm making a syn free chicken curry and rice. Followed by mango and frozen yoghurt (syn free ice cream substitute) :)

I miss my bread so these sound great. Thanks for posting

Oo I may have to try these they sound yum.

I've just dropped in to the 15s so will be here a while. Well done to everyone moving down

Hi I've started SW last week and there is loads of recipes, help and support on here. Good luck.

Hi I've only been here a few days and its a lovely friendly place to talk and find support

That's great news Ally, a brilliant first week. Today I've had 3 hotel chocolat chocolates not sure of the syn value but hopefully I will still be in my total for the day :rolleyes: Will be better tomorrow (I hope)

Well done. You have had a great start

I have just ordered a pineapple with my next shop. Should be able to have it before WI on Wednesday.

:bliss::bliss::bliss::bliss::bliss: Well I lost 3lb this week and I'm so pleased as my stomach feels so bloated I was sure I would be heavier. Not sure why I'm so bloated but hopefully it temporary due to all the fruit and vegetables. I am eating a . lot more of them. Now I need to keep it up...

I lost 3 lb in my first week so really pleased. Hopefully I can keep going in the same direction. Well done to all the other losers and hope next week is better for everyone else :)

Good luck with todays weigh in. I've been good so hope it shows on the scales. Was so tempted to have a peak this morning. Got another salad for lunch, think i need to try some variety. Have kept away from the cereal today as it didn't fill me up for long.

I used some on butter and the rest on haribo :-)

HEXA - 250 mls semi skimmed milk HEXB - 35g bran flakes

Good luck to you too. I'm nervous about my weigh in not just because it's my (hopefully) first loss but because if its not good everyone from work will know!! I used my syns on butter and a bag of crisps yesterday. Crisps are my food downfall so I'm glad I can use syns and still eat them. This...

Ooo I may have to try that.

I also realised my ticker was wrong earlier and then when I changed it I forgot to put in a current weight so it showed me as 0, think that may be too far :eek:

Hi thanks for the reply :) I'm not finding it too hard as 2 of my colleagues have been doing SW a while and between them and here I seem to be able to have all my questions answered. I keep looking at my scales but am trying to resist a look as I don't want to make myself feel too bad or...

Good luck and well done with the last week.

Im using mine for a large glass of wine and the butter I used on my breakfast

Music is my passion. I love metal, rock and most other types of music. Most of our spare money goes on gigs. At the moment i love biffy clyro, slash, six am and linkin park but it changes all the time. My major weight loss goal is to loose 2 st before Download in June

I got a kindle for Christmas from my partner and have downloaded a lot of free books. Im reading the rockstars daughter at the moment. Im also on book 2 of the girl ... Trilogy. Love the first one and am just getting in to this one

Hi, it's good to meet you and Good luck with your goals x

hi I'm new here and new to SW. You have done so well already, good luck with the rest x

Hi again lol So far I'm coping with the food and just eating less meat and pasta/rice whilst upping the veg as and fruit. difficulty for me will be alcohol! I'm sure most of my syns will go on that :) Will read with interest how you get on this time round x

I've tried to work out a week so from tomorrow: Monday - chilli and rice with salad Tuesday - homemade burger and SW chips with salad Wednesday - Turkey steak with lots of veg Thursday- veg stir fry with noodles Friday - chicken curry and veg/potato curry Not sure about the weekend yet

Thanks Amelia x

Hi, this is my first time trying slimming world and I have a long way to go as well. Good luck and hope you get the first 7 soon :)

I'm having my first weigh-in on Wednesday so hoping to be able to post in here with a loss.

Hi to anyone reading. I have decided that as 13 is my lucky number (I was born at No 13 so must be good) and I'm going to loose all the weight I have carried around for so long. I was my happiest at 9 1/2 st before I had my son 13 years ago - rather a long time but the weight went on slowly. I...

Hi :wavey: Good luck with getting back on track. I lost weight last year but with a new job, son being really bad at school and both my mum & nan being ill I put on 1st of the 2 st 8lb I had lost. I'm starting again for the new year.

I was expecting them to be high but not that much! Will need to get rid of the ones I have before I'm tempted :(

Hi I'm doing extra easy as well. Is a lot easier for me. Good luck x

I've just started too and it does seem like way too much food. Hopefully on Wednesday I will see if it's working when I have my first weigh in

Thanks

they sound great will be trying often soon

EE . Today I've measured out milk for coffee and wholesale bread

I have started slimming world and with some colleagues I am doing a weigh in at work. Hopefully this will be the extra spur I need to keep going. Loving all the recipes on this site :)
