Hi :)

I'm quite new to slimming world, I joined 6 weeks ago and have so far lost 6lb. I have PCOS so my weight comes off VERY slowly :( but at least it is shifting!
I'm losing weight for upcoming surgery on my gallbladder and for my holiday to the Caribbean in July (woo).
I figured making a diary on here will hopefully keep me on track.

So, lets start.

Breakfast: Banana & 2 tangerines
Drink: Water

Dinner: Wholemeal bread (heb), wafer thin ham, lettuce. 1 syn for extra light marg.
Snacks: Muller Light and packet of space raiders (13g) 3 syns.
Drink: Water

Tea: Slimming world chips, steak fried in fry light, grilled king prawns, salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, celery)
Snacks: 2 mikado for 1 syn, muller light and banana.
Drink: Dr Pepper zero

Water amount today: 4 pints.
Extra snacks: Options hot chocolate 2 syns with 300ml skimmed milk (hea), treat size Crunchie 4 syns.

Total syns: 11

I really should get off my bum tonight and do a work out. Last week I went to the gym 4 times and started the c25k, bloody hell it's difficult! I couldn't even run for 60 seconds...
Anyway, it's damaged my calf and knee so I think resting is best, but because I went so much last week I feel like I'm being lazy. I have weigh in tomorrow and think something miraculous will happen over night! I can't see a big loss, if even a loss, which is really disappointing as I've been so good this week (no snacking out of syns, eating superfree etc) and exercised a lot. I am a serial weigher :sigh: and can only see a maintain. Hmpf.
 
I have PCOS too and thought I would have the same problem. I have tried loads of diets & even considered surgery but somehow this diet is working for me. I have been with SW for 5 weeks and have lost 18 lbs, i know i have a long way to go yet =(.. stick with it and you will get there, I hope this encourages you as others on here have encouraged me =)

I've got PCOS too, and a under active thyroid. I sympathise with you huni :-( it can be difficult but not impossible - plus you've got something to aim for....... I wish I was going to the Caribbean! :-D

Thank you! Just seen your sig, what an amazing achievement!
I always give my body a rest after running but with a sore calf, my body is definitely telling me to relax it a little, which is fine. Running is so hard on the body! I spent hours on Youtube searching 'how to run properly' !!

Wow, that's amazing :eek:
I know how my body works, and with me, I love my food (obviously lol) so needed a diet that accommodated to that which is slimming world. I tried the GI diet once and lost 5lbs in a WEEK but I hardly ate and it was horrible. It's going slowly, but it's going down which is the right direction :)
 
Breakfast: Banana & 2 tangerines.
Drink: Decaf coffee with sweetner.

Dinner: 2 boiled eggs & mug shot.
Snack: Mullerlight Greek Style (0.5 syns)
Drink: Water

Tea: Slimming world burgers, wholemeal bun (hexb), cheese (hexa), side salad and corn on the cob.
Snack: Hi fi bar (3 syns)
Drink: Water

Water amount today: 2 and half pints
Extra snacks: Mullerlight Greek Style (0.5 syns), Space raiders (3 syns), Options hot choc (2 syns)

Total syns: 9

Sure I'll find something later on tonight to use my syns on. I'm going to a dance class soon, hopefully shall be a little fun exercise rather than plugging away at the gym for a change!

Oh, I forgot to add, I went to weigh in this afternoon and I've lost a pound :)
At last weeks weigh in I'd put a pound on (I was very naughty over Easter!) so at least it's off and definitely won't be coming back!
Another pound off next weight and I'll have my half a stone :D
 
I went to a dance/fit class this evening with family friends which was loads of fun, none of us had much rhythm...!
I noticed my knee and calf playing up a lot though when I was dancing/exercising so I might have a trip to the docs for it, especially my knee as it's been dodgy for months now.
