Hiya,
I'm new to the forum but not new to the slimming world 'plan'. I have been on the diet now for 18 months and lost a total of 6 stone 0.5 pound, progress has been relatively steady along the way with no huge weight losses just 1-2 pound each week. Ideally, I would like to lose another 3 stone.
Since Christmas, progress has been VERY slow and I struggle to even lose weight, let alone 1-2 pound!? I have no idea why this is, I do 3 exercise classes a week (and have been for almost a year now) and my method is I keep the syns low all week to allow for a drink and/or meal out at the weekend. I try quite a few new recipes and therefore don't just have the same meals week in, week out and try and incorporate as much SS as possible.
What has changed? I have been racking my brains to place what is going wrong, its not even as if I am almost at my goal!? I do eat huge portions of pasta for my dinner and I keep being told by sister on Rosemary Conley diet to cut back on my portion size, however this defeats the whole point of slimming world and pasta is a free food!?
Am finding it very disheartening to keep going when no progress is being made but do NOT want to go back to my old fatter ways!
Any help or advice is much welcome....
