Welcome to all Newbies 2012

This thread is designed to give you a place to say Hello and to help you navigate the wonderful SW forum of Minimins :D

Introduce yourselves below, say hello, tell us about your plans :D

There is a massive amount of information on the forum, all designed to help you with your weight loss journey - it's just a case of finding the information on here.

Take a bit of time to look around, read through the stickys and the sub-forums. These have been created at the request of minis users, and at first may appear confusing, but they do help locate information without duplicate postings - and they also keep the main SW forum board clear.

The search facility is very useful - remember, someone has probably asked the question before;)

The first section on the forum is for all the sub-forums and I've listed some of them below:

Syn Values

Please post all syn value requests here Syn Values - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum

Some of the most frequently asked syn values are stuck - e.g. syn free yoghurts, joes sausages, ready meals. If your post isn't answered as soon as you'd like, please don't duplicate post in the main forum.

Healthy Extras

Please post all healthy extra queries here
Slimming World - Healthy Extras - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum

Recipes

Slimming World Recipes - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum

This is where people post their favourite recipes but also a place to ask "what can I do with......" or "how can I cook......"

Food and Weight loss diaries

There are 2 sub-forums for diaries, if you want to post your foods use the food diary thread, if you want to post your weight loss journey then post in the weight loss diary thread.

Eating out

Slimming World - Eating Out - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum

This is for Chinese, Indian, Italian, Pub Grub, Wetherspoons etc

And the wonderfully busy Off Topic sub-forum for anything non SW related. We are a chatty lot on here!

Slimming World Off Topic - MiniMins.com - Weight Loss Support Forum

The second section is for Stickys

These are threads which have been part of the main forum at some point, and which people have found very useful so have asked for them to be "stuck".

Finally there's the main SW forum for anything not covered above!!

Welcome one and all - hope SW and 2012 is your plan and your year -go ahead, say hello!!

Hellooo
Back again for about the 3rd time! Rejoined a class last week and going to get the stubborn last stone and a half off now :)
 
Hello everyone. I'm Janet, joined SW last week doing Extra Easy. I'm determined to lose weight and get fitter this year.
 
Hi
Chrissy here. Joined SW originally in 2009 with my mum and lost 3 stone. Unfortunately my mum died later that year of cancer, and since then have also lost my dad........ well, comfort eating took over - which im sure many of you will understand and know the feeling. I have not only put on that weight, but more as well.
I joined SW in October 11 after being put on sick for reactive depression from last couple of years, and had decided that it was time I made major changes. I have lost 1st 1.5lb since October, and joined gym, but Xmas was a step backwards
Learned about this site in class today, and am determined to make 2012 the year of change for me.
Looking forward to the changes and making new friends on here..... thanks to Emmajoyce for the site details x
 
Hi everyone! :wavey:

I've signed up to SW online tonight. Was originally going to try and healthy eat by myself but decided to give SW a go, with it being one of the only diets I've never tried before!

Just having a look through all the info at the moment, is it really the case I can eat meat, pasta, rice, potatoes and not count them?! Trying to get my head around that! :D

Looking forward to getting to know you all on here, thanks for reading!

Hi everyone :)
Another newbie here! I'm the heaviest I've ever been :eek::eek: So I joined SW last week before I burst!! First WI today and looking forward to getting the first chunk out of the way :)

I've been up and down for years, but this time I'm determined to go down and stay there!

Good luck everyone x
 
Thanks for the welcome Suzie, I have no doubt I will probably be picking your brains on something or other over the next few weeks! :D
