Just wondered if any one else has experienced this? I started SW 8 weeks ago and about 4 1/2 stone over the top end of healthy BMI, so plenty to loose. I lost 1/2 stone in the first two weeks and have hovered within about 1 1/2lbs either side of this weight for the last six weeks!
One week I'll loose a pound, next week it goes back on.
There was one week four weeks ago where I had a blowout at the weekend.
Apart from that I've stuck to the plan religiously. There's been the odd day when I've gone over my 15 syns but then made up for it in subsequent days. I promise I'm not cheating! If I grate 32g of cheese, the 2g goes back in the packet and if I bite the end off ds's cereal bar I count it as half a bar etc. I don't actually find it that hard to not cheat on this diet as all the free and SF food keeps me satisfied..
I stay to the group sessions every week and hear how everyone else puts on weight if they go off plan but looses weight if they stick to it. Has anyone else done SW, followed it properly for a sustained period of time and not lost weight or am I really missing something? Before now I've tried WW and calorie counting. Both worked when I stuck to the diet so I know I'm capable of loosing weight but it just doesn't seem to be happening with SW..
I do feel that I'm eating a lot of food but it is all on the free list and I'm always mindful of the 1/3 super free portions. My inkling is that my portion sizes are too big but SW doesn't seem to think there is such a thing. Does everyone else consciously limit their 'no limits' food? If so, how do you know how much you can have?
