Good Morning all
Up and off to work so had my weigh in and lost 0.75lb, really unhappy with that, I have been ravenous this week and really stayed within my syns.
I doubt I will make my May target of 10lbs loss :cry: and I really am a bit fed up right now.
Hope everybody else achieves a good loss or at least what they were hoping for
Off to work to reconsider my strategy!!!
:wave_cry:
As others have said, any loss is a good loss! If you've had a really good week, hopefully it will show at next week's WI - keep your chin up and keep going!
Kind of got back on plan over the last two days, but in the evening have gone over my syns on snacks (AND its TOTM) but the scales report a 1lb loss at WI this morning!So i'm super chuffed. :happy036:
3lbs to go to get back to where i was before i went off track & will hopefully lose that next week if i have a 100% week!
Well done Rayven - about time you had some good news!
Well done on STS - not a bad result if you've been a little off-track! Here's to a good week!
At least your weight didn't ascend Why-d!!
I'm too scared to WI today. I know if I have put on I will be so be so disappointed with myself that I will spend the day comfort eating.... thinking I'll be back on track tomorrow and tomorrow will never come!
Good luck everyone xx
Only you can control what you do Nettie... It's how you respond to a bad result that counts, not the result itself. One of the things you have to come to terms with if you're going to stick to any eating plan, is that there will be good weeks and not so good weeks. We've probably all had weeks where we get a better result than we really deserve, so we're also going to get weeks where we get a worse result than we deserve, or just a bad result. Draw a line under it, don't let it beat you and carry on! It will come off eventually... Good luck! x
I'm sure with your positive attitude you'll have it straight back off KWise! Good luck for next week.
Good morning everyone - A 3lb loss for me :happy036
Worked really hard going swimming and on the wii and also stuck to plan all week so it certainly paid off.
Am off to London again on Thursday for a celebrity event with my journalist daughter and have bought myself a gorgeous slinky number to wear whilst I am mingling with the stars (just in case my photo ends up in Hello magazine - you never know!)
Well done - a fab loss! Have a great trip to London.
Wowzers Honey, that is fabulous! You're a true inspiration. :happy096:
Don't be down Joanna - keep going and you'll get your rewards, hopefully next week. All the exercise might have led to some fluid retention, or to your system not being quite sure what's going on!
The first time I did SW, I only lost 1.5lbs my first week despite being really good, this time I lost 8lb - having a very similar week - sometimes there's no rhyme or reason to it! Good luck for next week! x
Well, not as bad as I'd feared after 3 meals out, I managed to pull it back and have lost 0.5lbs this week. Now off on my hols for a fortnight, so I'm aiming to put on no more than 2lb by the time I get back!
Good luck to those still to WI!
Have a great couple of weeks everyone and I'll see you when I get back. xxx

STS again for me. If only I could get down to a healthy weight, I'd be excellent at maintaining!

I STS this week after 6/7 days at 100% and booze free. Just imagine the damage if I had not found SW No wonder I got so flamin big in the first place!
Only managed a third of my mini challenge so that was a fail. This week my challenge is just to do the best I can do so I don't feel demotivated by failing anything. Cop out? LOL

Not at all!!! Maybe all these mini goals is where we're going wrong for that exact reason!!!

LOL - I was thinking exactly that this morning!
Well done all the losers, maintainers and tiny gainers this week. Honey - you are a superstar! Jackjane - wear a low syn pretzel on your head and you will be in all the mags!
I am too hungry to type this morning
Nettie - we are all mates here. I have had some shocking weeks, but post knowing that I will get lots of support here

Plodding on.......
Sausage - well done for sticking to plan and for STS. That means that you are still at the halfway point. That is a good thing . This week therefore is another VERY important week. I sometimes find that when I am very good, the results are a bit delayed, therefore if you keep this up, you should see some results. I wondered mid week about suggesting that you revise the exercise target. Sometimes I am a bit the same that if I am going to fail anyway, then blow it, might as well not bother. Which is why I tend to set quite low targets so that at least I achieve them.
Dawn - 0.75lb is a good loss. However I am a bit concerned that you have been ravenous all week. For me, that would not be a sustainable plan. I can only stick at that for so long. Is there any possibility that you can increase your superfree or drink a bit more ??? I'll try and have another look at your food diaries again - this week has been a tad (ie ridiculously) busy. I might make the same comment that I have made to sausage about target setting too - 10lb is pretty tough for a month. In the past (when I had more to lose) I would have set a maximum target of 1lb a week, now my targets (if I set them) are 0.5lb per week and as long as I achieve that, I'm happy. Anything else is a bonus.
WG - Well done on STS. It looks like you know why and have a strategy so keep it up
Rayven - 1lb loss is great. You have had lots of things going on and you are turning it round. Good on you.
Madmavey - STS is good. You know why. Fingers crossed for this week. Hugs.
Why_d - Ha ha. STS is good (I seem to be repeating myself here..................!). Well done.
Nettie - I think Spanx made some good comments. This will definitely be a journey with ups and downs. You have to commit and to accept the consequences of 'off plan moments' as well as accepting that sometimes even on plan, you will have a gain. It's ok to gain, we've all done it. If you don't WI, you may be really good all week and then STS - that may well have been a good loss but if you don't weigh, you could just be disappointed that all your efforts have amounted to 'nothing'. However if you decide to WI, have a think about your strategy beforehand. There really is no point in going on a binge if you gain - you will only hurt yourself. However as I said above, it is possible that by not weighing, you are just moving the binge from this week to next week for slightly different reasons ??? At the end of the day, you know yourself and we are all different but I would encourage you to see this as a journey and just accept the hills along with the dips. Sorry if I sound harsh, I really don't mean to be - I've been there, still go there at times. Big hugs because I know it's not easy.
Kwise - Never mind. It will come off and you have your incentive. If you have a big meal yesterday that might also be part of the reason. For your anniversary dinner, if you want calamari, then work your food around that. Plan what you are going to have (including extras) then work the week around that. Most of all, have fun. You will be back in the 'normal' zone (well weight wise at least) soon as long as you stick to the plan. It might be next week, it might not but it WILL be soon.
JackJane - Yay. 3lb is fab. Now you can move on. Have a fantastic time in London. If you end up in Hello, please let us know which page........
Jo - 2lb is good. It's a great start. I know successful losers who have had big first week losses and those who put on in the first week. It's going in the right direction. Welcome back
Honey - You are just AMAZING. I am so so proud of you. I don't blame you for being emotional. Just think how you'll be in a couple of months on your 1 yr anniversary. Wow. Just fantastic.
Spanx - I tried to rep you again but it won't let me !! STS is a great result after this week. Fantastic. Go and have an amazing holiday. Do your best and we will see you back here after that.
Pinktoaster - your comment made me laugh. STS is ok. You have been struggling a bit recently so that is a good result.
I lost 2lb this week. Am delighted with that considering I lost 5lbs (unexpectedly) last week. My scales this morning said 11st 13.8 lbs so technically I am still in the 12's. But I don't care. I can see the light !!! Next week is my last WI before a big holiday so even if I get officially into the 11's, it's only likely to be 1 week, however I will get there eventually no matter how long it takes. This is my way of life now. I feel amazing, so it doesn't matter whether it takes me another 6 months or another 60 months, as long the general direction is either maintain or down I don't care. Big hugs everyone. Hope next week is better for most of you.

Hiya dudes and dudettes!!
Looks like most of us have had a disappointing week BUT our bodies do need time to adjust don't they?
After a plus 2 last week I've only lost 1lb but I'm fine with that. I'm been eating loads of the speed stuff but not been drinking water and I've decided to do a few red days this week (I've only done 2 red days in the whole 6 weeks I've been doing this.)
Keeping it real...overall I'm delighted with losing 10lbs in 6 weeks. I know loads of you lovely people have achieved so much more than that and you are a real inspiration to many so if you've gained or sts this week...it's no thing...y'all just keep on trucking.

Thanks for the words of encouragment everyone. I have decided to plan this week a bit better as I know I am going out on Friday for tea and will probably end up being out drinking again. I've seen some threads where people are saying that instead of having 10-15 syns a day they have 105 and just knock them off daily. I am going to try that and then I will have a larger amount to use for Friday, using syns during the week doesnt bother me as I fill up on fruit and water so sometimes even struggle to use them. heres to next week

Hey everyone
I've had to giggle whilst reading the posts whilst I've been out of London- seems like most of us have had feelings of gaining weight. And i am no different lol I've been eating silliness since Friday! Ah well, we'll see what the damage is tomorrow morning!
Honey- you are my inspiration x

Good Morning all
Up and off to work so had my weigh in and lost 0.75lb, really unhappy with that, I have been ravenous this week and really stayed within my syns.
I doubt I will make my May target of 10lbs loss :cry: and I really am a bit fed up right now.
Hope everybody else achieves a good loss or at least what they were hoping for
Off to work to reconsider my strategy!!!
:wave_cry:
Don't be disheartened dawnie the results of the hardwork somes don't show but they will show next week for sure
If you were ravenous this week then are you sure you are eating enough?Well Done on your STS WG as you're weight loss is going in the right direction even if it is slow
Kind of got back on plan over the last two days, but in the evening have gone over my syns on snacks (AND its TOTM) but the scales report a 1lb loss at WI this morning!
3lbs to go to get back to where i was before i went off track & will hopefully lose that next week if i have a 100% week!
Woohoo! Thats is brillaint Rayven - Well Done and good luck for next week
Well Done! Don't worry Madmavey a STS is good. There must have been something in the air (or the fact that the world was supposedly coming to an end) which caused the ridiculous eating lol Good luck with your 100% week and i hope you have a good loss next week
Hahahahaha! Well Done on your STS (You're sycronising with most of us Why_D lol) and good luck for next week
Aww that not true craybia. I balme something in the air which made the sunday weighers a little crazy this week
Lets blame the supposed end of the world lol Hope you had a good day today with your daughter I'm too scared to WI today. I know if I have put on I will be so be so disappointed with myself that I will spend the day comfort eating.... thinking I'll be back on track tomorrow and tomorrow will never come!
Good luck everyone xx
We don't judge anyone on here nettie so don't be scared. We're all here to support you
Well I'm officially overweight again with 2lbs on which seemed to occur midweek (sneaky peak). However yesterday I had a lovely meal - mainly free - but I decided I wouldn't count my salsa , guacamole and reduced fat sour cream (although only used a little ) and I lost count on my tacos (think I had 2) & tortilla wraps (again think I had 2). I was then sitting by the cashews and rocky road. I tried not to succumb but..........
On the plus side I found and made the most awesome veggie Mexican mince recipe .
On the negative side - K makes note not to eat crap food as it's made me a tad unsociable today iykwim!!
Good luck you all - let's lose next week
Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins
mmmm the food sounds amazing K! Remind me that i need to move in with you as you're always cooking lovely food
You'll get that small gain off next week - Good luck Good morning everyone - A 3lb loss for me :happy036
Worked really hard going swimming and on the wii and also stuck to plan all week so it certainly paid off.
Am off to London again on Thursday for a celebrity event with my journalist daughter and have bought myself a gorgeous slinky number to wear whilst I am mingling with the stars (just in case my photo ends up in Hello magazine - you never know!)
Woohoo! :talk017: thats brillaint! Hope you have a fab time in London
:talk017: Honey you make us all so proud of you
That is amazing! you are such an inspiration to me Well done on your brillaint loss (I only lost 2lbs on my first WI too) Good luck for next week too
Amazing Spanx! That is such a good result for you. It just goes to show that SW can be a way of life and you can have social occassions without going off plan too much. Have fun on your holiday!Toastie well done on your STS and good luck for next week
I STS this week after 6/7 days at 100% and booze free. Just imagine the damage if I had not found SW
Only managed a third of my mini challenge so that was a fail. This week my challenge is just to do the best I can do so I don't feel demotivated by failing anything. Cop out? LOL
The result will defiantly show next week sausage and well done for being 100% and booze free
Woohoo Gail! You are doing amazingly!
Love your attitude and you will be in the 11's next week Good luckTechnically this week I lost 3.5lb, but also technically from the week before I've gained 2lb... so its a bit confusing because I weighed on tuesday after the decorating.
Tickers have been reset and lets see how I do now
Good Luck emma
Well done Potatogirl - Its a pound in the right direction and good luck with your red days
Good luck for tomorrow Roziee
I think thats everyone - If i missed you out then i'm sorry and well done to you no matter what the result this week was
XxI shall be gaining this week aswell as i've been ridiculously off plan for the last few days
(I even had cookie dough last night which is a first since i started SW ) I only have myself to blame with the crazy off plan eating but i am back on plan today - even managed a syn free day. I will achieve my target weight no matter how long it takes Have a good week everyone Xx
