Hi Sggy, well done on the loss. you are really going great guns at the moment.
I weigh in at group, but am stuck. I have hit a brick wall and have manaed to lose 5lb over the last 12 weeks - which is awful as I ha been trying. Ben varying up the plans- red days, success express, speed food and still dont seemto be getting anywhere fast!
What did you do to get past this stage? Am seriously considering giving fast foward a go next week if I dont get a good loss xx

I havent heard about fast forward? Is it like success express?
I was chatting to my consultant today about the slowing down and she said that its totally normal for weightloss to slow down like it has for us and that its just our bodies adjusting to such a huge change in a short space of time. I really hope this true. Are you losing inches still? I measure myself every other week and still managed to lose an inch here and there when I havent lost a thing on the scales. I find that so bizarre. It's really hard some days. I just wanna eat chocolate all day long but cant lol Hang in there hun. Don't give up
Stepping up the exercise regime has certainly helped keep me on track. I have been walking just about everywhere every day. Im challenging myself to walk at least 5 miles everyday. I have managed it so far on the week days but as it's getting colder its harder so have been going to the gym but I dont enjoy the treadmill as much as I first did. The novelty wore off really quickly. I much prefer walking outside. I miss summer! xx

thanks for that Siggy. My C is as much use as a chocolate teapot! So much so, that I ave been looking at other SW groups in the area and am considering moving.
I am exercising about 3 times a week - aquafit x 2 and some resitance training with gym balls. the weather is too cold and dark for me to go out and walk at the moment.
Fast Forward is plan that is similar to WW. it has points calcualted for your weight and then a booklet with meals, snacks, breakfasts, etc in it and you eat your points worth. It is really restrictive but you can lose up to 7lbs in a week. I think a lot of people cannot cope with the small meals and the lack of snacking between meals. I am going to ask for the plan as I have a clear week next week to try it. I may decide not to do it once I see the booklet properly though xx

Have been really good today!
B: Bran flakes with SS milk (Hea and B)
S: Hi-fi Bar (6 syns)
D: Roast Chicken, tatties, Sprouts, Green Beans, Brocolli and stock for gravy so totally syn free whoop!
Still stuffed from dinner so can't see me eating much else today.
There are freddo's in the fridge so might treat myself to one later tonight when watching the X factor results. Apart from that nothing else to report

Thanks
Im afraid I dont really like fruit. I eat it in the summer but in this cold weather, no chance! I make up for it with the veggies. Do you keep a diary Anju?

Here is a little pic too. That photo on the top left was taken the day before I joined SW back in April. The one on the right was taken last night. It's my new dress! Going to be wearing that number on Christmas day
