Hey everyone I'm. New to this group so please be patient with me!

I've just started doing slimming world again after 5 years of being off it and 2 baby's in those 5 years!

I am doing it from memory so hopefully I remember it all lol!

I am sticking to green days because I had massive success doing this before I managed to lose 4.5 stone in 3 months so am hopeing I can do it again!

At a massive 18st I have at least 6st to lose which will be hard work!

So yesterday I had fresh fruit salad for breakfast banana for lunch because I wasn't hungry some ready break taken from hexb at about 2.30 and savory rise woth extra vegatables for tea! Drinking loads of water and coffee using milk from hexa does this sound okay?

I have also started doing 30min exsersise a day in 2 15min sessions becuase I am very unfit!

Anything else you would suggest doing? Not using syns because if I taste chocolate I won't stop haha! First weigh on Monday so wish me luck

Hi! How did WI go? And how are you finding it? I've recently rejoined after gaining five of the six stones I'd lost. I do mainly EE days but find it weird not having two hex A's and B's lol xx

Hello sorry for the late reply well according to my scales I lost 8lb however I have put that back on but am eating the same I'm losing inches tho so I'm confused I now weigh on a Wednesday instead of a monday and I have had a terrible week this week so I will let you know how my next weigh in goes! I think I have put on weight and lost inches because I am doing a lot of exsersise which is causing extra weight! Yes I have just got a book and am also doing ee days I'm not sure I like it is feel like I'm eating too much I much prefer red and green days but apparently they are not aloud now? How did you get on this week? Xx

Hi x
We've come across this problem in group...people maintaining or gaining when they exercise yet still losing inches. Apparently it's caused by millions of micro tears in the muscles (that's the ache you feel when you've exercised) and these tears fill with water in an attempt to repair themselves...and of course all this water causes an increase in weight. It should diminish as your body gets used to the exercise

You can still do red/green days but SW have stopped all support for it so you can't look up syns or find them in the new books. I chuck the odd red day in now and again as like you, I find EE very filling and feel like I'm eating too much BUT...
I lost 2.5lbs this week so blooming chuffed with that! Looks like EE does work after all lol xx

Hi hunni X Sounds like you've had quite a bit going on so not surprising you had a little gain. Sometimes you just have to prioritise other things in your life and SW has to take a back seat. Well done on getting back on it xx
