Newbie to Weight Watchers

[VikkiGT4]

Hi guys

Just come back from holiday. I've done Cambridge leading up to my holiday to get fast results but I still have a further couple/three stone to go. So, I've decided to give weight watchers a go. Never done this diet before as always been a slimming world kinda girl. However, since having my gallbladder out I've struggled to lose weight with slimming world and think it could be down to portion sizes.

Anywho, I've bought the £10 first month thingy online and I'm planning to go to my first meeting on Thursday. Hope I've done that bit right at least lol

So yeah Hi I'm new, please be nice x

Yummy Yummy! Just you can have crumpets on this plan ;-) x

 

[VikkiGT4]

Yeah I noticed that. I don't see how all the carbs are completely unlimited like the ww bread and crumpets. Still limiting my bread intake as it's my downfall lol

Lunch today comprises of 1 Warburtons brown thin, with lots of tuna, in 0% fat natural fromage frais and rocket salad and sweetcorn and a packet of carrot batons - yummy xx

That sounds yummy! I think the whole point with the food list is that you must only eat them till you're full although I have no full button which is why F&H wouldn't work for me! X

 

[VikkiGT4]

Well I have no full button really either, unless it's a mahoosive chinese on a Friday night lol

We'll see. I haven't weighed myself this week so we'll see on Thursday evening how I'd got on. eek x

Fingers crossed! Any questions, please ask x

 

[VikkiGT4]

so, are there any crisps I can have as a treat this week as opposed to not having any with my sandwiches lol ? x

My faves are skips, quavers or French fries, all 2pp a pack x

 

[VikkiGT4]

I'm on simple start this week though so doing that filling and healthy thing? Not sure there are crisps that I can have?

Also, do you know if any of the Schwartz packet mixes, for like shepherds pie or chicken curry, are free? Is there any way I can find out the value of them for when I go onto pro points? if I do? x

 

[Sammyanth]

Hi, hope you're enjoying ww? I'm on propoints and have used the Schwartz packet mixes for slow cookers. The sausage and bean casserole one is yummy and works out about 5pp for a good sized portion.

Crisps, I like the ww packs you can get, all 2pp. Not sure what you can have on the simply filling as I've never done it.

Good luck for wi this week!
