Hello Jinty: welcome!

Soooo. Have had three days of success express (apart from the Wine).

Then EE Friday, yesterday and today (got a chicken in the oven, all the SW trimmings)

Then tomorrow and Tues, success express.

I feel a bt lighter, hoping for a loss, fingers crossed.

Evening all! Been a busy bee this week - busy with work, plenty of exercise and tried to be good with food choices - the scales will show tomorrow!

Surfing the net tonight looking at holidays - cant afford one but like to dream! Minorca and Dubai are on my look at list tonight!!

Hello,

Would I be able to join too please?

I've done SW in the past, it was great when I was breast feeding my son and I lost 2 stone.

I've kept that off and lost more through ww but I have had to cancel my ww subscription as I found out I am pregnant with number 3. I'm determined to not gain the huge amounts I did in my previous pregnancies and have started properly on the SW plan today. I'm hoping to join back at my SW class in just over a week, as I'm not able to get to class this week.

I made cottage pie today, enough for tomorrow's dinner in work and a portion in the freezer. I also made mushroom fried rice.

Hoping the plan with ease my IBS symptoms, as I'm only 7 weeks pregnant and my tum looks like I'm 6 months. I've eaten lots of fruit & veg today, I do love SW

beanandspud · 14/04/2013 22:43

Oh dear, this weekend has been a disaster Sad

Been away with family...

Chips, curry, crisps, wine, pasta and sauce, cheese... I feel rather embarrassed Blush but have really struggled to find SW friendly/veggie options at theme parks, pubs etc.

Back to it tomorrow. All helpful advice and 'kicks up the proverbial' gratefully received.

Morning all slimmers new and old Smile

WI today, and have decided to go it alone. I'm paying £5 a week to get weighed and never stay at group. So the fiver is going in a pot, and when I reach target in 1st 5lb, I will buy myself something pretty.

This weekend was awful, DD1, who is 13 was admitted to hospital with suspected appendicitis on Saturday, but turns out she has gastritis. So a weekend of no eating for hours, then had a bacon roll, and several glasses of Wine. But she's home and getting better. But let's just say that our NHS is fantastic Grin

Have a fab day everyone x

Blondeshavemorefun · 15/04/2013 14:53

3girls hope your DD gets well soon.

Blondes hope you're ok tomorrow. Just forget about SW for the day and relax, there are days it's not worth stressing over food.

3girls1madboy · 15/04/2013 17:25

Thanks blondes and kiss x she's on the mend, and hungry for the first time in about a week Smile.

Jinty64 · 15/04/2013 19:55

Left work early and went for a swim before collecting ds - 'twas lovely, must do it more often.

Blondes hope tomorrow passes peacefully for you.

MrsMeow · 15/04/2013 20:17

Is it ok to join? I've read your thread and your stories really inspire me to lose weight.
I always was a ww girl for years. Something finally clicked last summer and I lost a stone by Xmas. After Xmas I struggled on my own but 6 weeks ago decided I would finally give sw a go - I know a lot of people who are shrinking before my eyes so had to join!!! And I've never ever felt so positive about a diet. I had 10.5 off in 5 weeks. Last week had a gain so now have 9 off - that plus the 12 I had off before I joined means 1 stone and a half. I've gone down a dress size and so pleased. BUT I feel I need to keep at it. I need another 19 lbs to get to target. And I know by the summer I could be there!! All ur positive stories really help!!
So hopefully u don't mind me joining in.

Tonight I had the sw noodle salad - it was delicious.

iklboo · 15/04/2013 20:37

Thinking of you tomorrow Blondes x

laughalot · 15/04/2013 20:46

Welcome newbies we have loads now Grin.

Blondes big massive hugs you have done so well and Mr Blondes would be so proud of you and the strength you have found everyday to carry on with daily life. You are always so jolly and you make me chuckle so much on facebook. So if you have loads of Wine tomorrow and naughty food who cares you have been through so much and you deserve a day off the diet xxxx

androbbob · 15/04/2013 20:54

Big hug for blondes - you are such a strong person and I am proud of you and your attitude to life. Do whatever makes you happy tomorrow and cry all you like and I am glad you have such good support around you.

Well WI day today and I lost 2.5lbs! My best weightloss ever since my first week! So, another 3.5lbs to my Club 10 and another 1lb on from that for my 1.5 stone award! Just need to replicate this last week for next week and get another good loss. I can only try and this warm weather appears to be helping my motivation.

Some other good losses here - we must all be shrinking at a fast rate!!

beanandspud · 15/04/2013 21:17

(((hugs)))) Blondes. Will be thinking of you tomorrow.

Welcome to all of the newbies, I will be much better at keeping up when DS goes back to school tomorrow.

Well done androbbob and iklboo Grin

Huffpot · 16/04/2013 06:47

Just wanted to stick my head in and say that I'm thinking of you today Blonde and agree with what has been said before.
Do what you need to get through today hugsThanks Wine

Thinking of you blondes

MarmaladeTwatkins · 16/04/2013 10:54

Do you mind another Slimming World attemptee?

I am so miserable. I've been trying to lose weight since January, just by cutting calories mainly. I couldn't get on on the 1400 cals recommended so I have come back to SW, as I lost 2 stone on it two years ago! I am on holiday in SIX WEEKS and I need to lose something. I have been losing and putting back on the same 7lbs since Jan.

I am doing online as the morning group I used to go to has moved to an evening and I can't get to it. Would be good to have someone to talk to/support!

KissMyGrits · 16/04/2013 13:38

Hello Marmalade!

Well.... I went for it and bought a bunch of size 10 clothes! I haven't been a 10 since I was 19! They're a little snug but my 12's were hanging off me although I suspect that's because I was wearing them when I was a size 14 Blush. Hopefully in a few weeks and a few more lbs off they'll be perfect! Grin

WheresMyCow · 16/04/2013 14:00

Thinking of you today Blondes

Well done to all those with losses, boo's to all the gains...I had WI on Saturday and gained 1lb Sad I was gutted and have no idea why (and from looking at my food diary neither does the consultant Confused)

So, I am extra determined this week...drinking more water, eating not quite as much fruit and cutting down on syns. I did buy cottage cheese to make Blondes Quiche but I've eaten half of it already!!!

Blondeshavemorefun · 16/04/2013 15:07

thanks all, had a sb , chocolate cookie and chinese Blush

bloody dh making me fuck up my diet - i love him, but fuck a duck hes made me gain weight x
