So what's the water challenge then? 6 glasses a day?

X x x

Sent from my HTC Desire using MiniMins x x x

I say 2 litres to be precise I think x

Well then Roziee,

may i ask, how do you join the group?

Thanks
Ruth

You just stay here with us... Put your name on the lost and once you lose u update it accordingly

I have just started slimming world diet last week and have lost 2 lbs. I am now at exactly 16 stone and really want this to be the highest I go ever again. Would like to be part of this challenge as i really would love to lose the 6 stone but going to take it one day at a time. The challenge just seems insurmountable but hope to get there in the end.

Well done on ur loss x

Please may i join you all. I have read through the whole thread and keep nodding, agreeing laughing and filling up a bit. Clare your post about just gaining weight through the 20 and 30s is my story. I have lost count of the times I joined sw and gave up. Well last time. Enough now. I have 10 months until I am 40 and need to lose about 7 stone plus. Although it's been so long who knows what I would feel right at. So if you will have me I lost 2.5 this week so am on my way.

Of course u can join x

 

[Roziee]

What's for dinner tonight ladies? I'm not hungry so just gonna have some fruit I think...

 

[Bron]

I went to get weighed on my scales this morning (like I do nearly every day!) and the battery was dead. So Ive told hubby to get them in the bin. Im gonna only use class scales once a week.

What my scales say on a morning can change my mood and diet for the day.!! It works both ways, if they say ive lost i think i can have that choccy or if ive gained i think stuff it!

Really no good for me x x

You are so true, I find that if I weigh myself it can really impact on how I feel that day. I do SW on line, but only weigh on my WI day once a week now

Bron (and anyone else who does SW online) what sort of features does it have? I'm really hesitant to spend £60 on something when i have no idea what its like. For example the WW one has a thing where you can put in ingredients for a recipe (eg a cake or muffins or something) and it will tell you how many points each one is - does SW online have something like that? And does it have a syn tracker, like you tell it oh i had 6 mars bars today and it goes right thats 4billion syns (lol) I'm just interested in exactly what you can do with it before i spend my hard earned dollah! I'll be honest the ww was really helpful in planning your day out and im wondering if its just what i need to help get my head round it.

As for dinner, I've just had a massive pig out sesh! Oh god do i feel full!!! Had 1 and a bit bowls of sf soup that i made yesterday, followed by a massive and god do i mean massive chicken stirfry - it literally filled the wok with all the stuff in there! so my sf for today is:
tomato
cabbage
red cabbage
pepper
sweetcorn
beansprouts
kale
carrot
onion
and im sure there was a few more but im blowed if i can remember em right now!! haha!!

Feeling a lot better this evening so thank you to everyone this morning xxx

Hi Everyone

Hope everyone is ok!

I have been out for lunch today - went to the harvester and managed to stay on plan courtesy of the salad cart!

Making extra easy "Goulash" for tea following the recipe in winter warmers! Smells gorgeous!

Hi
You have access to all the website, and all electronic materials, I do the silver level so get the monthly mag as well. You have an e mail once a week to remind you to WI, you enter your weight and it comes up on a graph. You can also do all the body magic awards, I'm doing my platinum one now. You get all the same awards, 10%, 1/2stone etc, not as stickers just electronically.
You can do a food dairy on line. I think the best thing is the syns on line.


It works for me and this site is my "group"

I can't get to a group regularly, I did try last summer, if I had to miss a week i found i would kid myself I could go off plan eat too much, nd recover the situation, all nonsense really.

I started on line back in August and it's working for me, and for me it's worth the money.

What you don't get is the support from a Consultant and other group members that's why I say this group is my "group".

If you are in the right frame of mind to loose I think on line or going to a group will work.

BRON

 

[ecblack76]

I wish i had gone to a group not online, i wish the food diary was more detailed, the syns are good.... but i have heard people on here saying things that i have not heard of. i am going to a group when my three months runs out. xxxx but still would stay on here

[dory78]

ecblack - when you want to add yourself or change ur details you just copy and paste rather than hit quote, then change the bit that needs changing

If you don't mind me asking what bits of it weren't detailed enough for you? Thing is, like Bron. I can't get to a group - the only ones near me are either whilst I'm working or late in the evening, and having a 6 yr old and no one else who could babysit for me whilst i go I'd either have to take her with me or leave her home alone, neither of which I'd really want to do, so online or going it alone are my only real options.

 

[broadsbean]

i agree with bron, i have sw online and get all the benefits of a group on here

there is a recipe data base and a book shop where you can buy all the cook books.

it works for me (most of the time)

the syns calculator can be a godsend xxx

 

[dory78]

Ooohhhh decisions decisions! I wish they did an introductory thing or something where you could use it free for 24hrs or so to see if it was any good and then buy the packages after that. I didn't hesitate this much when I did WW online but then I did get the first 3 months free and only paid less than a tenner a month after that!

Btw - 2 litres of water drunk today (assuming i can count squash)

 

[ecblack76]

i found the food diary confusing, i hoped when i put my food in it would tell me if i was on the right path. but i have to tell it if its green red or ee........

 

[ecblack76]

i also can't find a page that tells me what awards you can achieve that would inspire me....

 

[ecblack76]

but i agree glad i found this site it makes it easier being able to share and ask for advice.

 

[vickidyers]

I'm not quite sure I could lose another 6 stone (I have already lost 4 now), but that seems a very good target to aim for in 2012. Hope you don't mind I've added myself (very checky, I've put the amount I lost last Friday as it's at 2012 WI!!)
