Not tried that but its chocolate I crave. I try hifi and.alpen lights as heb but I have them and then go for chocolate as it doesn't satisfy my craving. I try sugar free jelly trifles which are only 3.5 syns and I love them but after I want the chocolate.

Going to see how I get on today as aiming for a 3lb loss this week. 2 i put on plus 1 extra.

Well ladies how r we all doing? Charlie is now 6 months and on roughly 4 bf a day and 3 meals, which means I'm down to just one healthy extra! I've still been in a funk of not losing and it's doing my head in! I've been battling the same half stone since may! I want to find all the ppl who told me bf made it easier to lose weight and punch them in the face! Lol

I am working on reducing my portion size to see if that helps and am going to use my heb on something other than bread....I eat a lot of sf with my meals and stay within my syns....any other tips?? xx

Ive found ive slowed down with weight loss now im not bf'ing as much. Dunno what to suggest really. Im trying to have some new meals instead of same old stuff lol also mixing up my fruit so not having same stuff. Are u making sure u have same amount syns each wk? Do u think u might be losing inches? Ive noticed my body is changing shape so its not all about weight loss though its nice to see the figures drop!

Leeanne how did u get on leaving tj overnight? Hope he was good! Bit fed up with my parents n in laws they never offer n when i ask they always seem to be busy! Inlaws never busy with their daughters babies though! Really pees me off!

I agree with you here, when i breastfed Amy (without dieting so no idea what i was in between) - i know when I had her i was 12stone 1lb when i weighed myself after coming out of hospital. I was still that when she was 5.5 months (which was when I decided i needed to start trying to lose weight). It didnt just "drop off" like everyone says. For me this time it has been a bit easier this time but think its because i have remained focussed on what I eat the whole time and although I have way too many syns I think my main meals are all slimming world friendly (as opposed to before when I ate badly for all meals and too many snacks).

Poor little Keira, very clingy today after mummy spent the weekend at v festival. At least I didn't have to spen the day with huge sore boobs today. Think we're both happy x

Didn't camp as I live 5 mins away, so fed her each morning and night. Thankfully my supply has settled so wasn't too bad, but really felt good to finally feed her when we got home. Rock boobs are not a good look.

We don't have slimmer of month or anything, basically ur group vote for who inspires them the most, doesn't have to be the person who lost most weight, I feel very honoured! Xx

Good job hunny that's great! i was nominated but didn't win, i'd only been going 7 weeks and was up against a woman who'd lost 6 stone lol! so the right person won

Jack got weighed today and he's 14lbs 5oz. In the 17 weeks since I've had him I've lost 2 stone 13lbs (1 stone 6lbs on slimming world) so i've lost the equivelent of just under THREE Jacks! lol! xx

Hello ladies! No one said there was 8 week growth spurt. Was up 5 times last night, mainly 2 hourl

Am not sleeping much because of Daniel but Fri night "opportunists" stole my satnav. It is old so worth next to .nothing now but I have struggled to sleep since worrying abt every little noise I hear! Yest was so tired as I had been up 4 times with Daniel and to add to it I kept stressing abt the house etc.

So yest I ate 2 bars of choc to give me energy for feeding (i'd had one earlier in day as part my syns).

Today Daniel has his injections so not looking forward to lack of sleep following that along with growth spurt :-(
