Hi Guys,
I have been using your site to find out syn values for a while now and you seem a nice bunch so...I've joined up
Many moons ago I was 13 1/2 sone. I went to WW and got down to 9 1/2 stone and kept it off for ages. I got married, found a way orf working which really suits me, I live in a lovely place.... But being relaxed and happy tends to lead to pounds creeping on! I ried getting out my old WW books but I was left feeling hungry so someone suggested SW.
I prefer the supprt of a group but there aren't any locally at a time I can do so the online version appealed. I signed up, logged my food religously, lost half a stone then....nothing. I went through all the online support but nothing revelaed why I wasn't losing. So I gave up. A year later I thought; no, lets try again. I signed up online again and things went the same way. A year on and I'm trying again, but I don't see that the £5 a week for the online membership is worth it. There was nothing to suggest how many syns were right for me and no personalised back-up when things stalled.
I'm six weeks in and have lost 4kg. Every week I have lost....but golly is it slow! I'm currently 71 kg and want to be 63. It's not much but it seems like an impossible mountain at the moment! I eat 10-15syns a day, I'm active (heck, I have 3 spaniels how could I not be active?!), I eat only lean meat and TONNES of fruit/veg. I love to cook and cook most meals from scratch so know exacly what I'm eating. I don't restrict myself to tiny portions but hey.....on SW I'm not meant to have to! (And I do stop when I'm full!)
Any hints, tips, support? I am at the point where without more han 0.5kg off in the next week I'll quit again....help!
