Made a big super speed chilli yesterday. Was lovely & so filling. Hoping my efforts show on the scales tomorrow. I feel better in myself already.

Well done for those with losses this week Smile.

Hello all! I joined last night. Feeling a bit apprehensive about the cooking everything from scratch part as I am always rushing around and grabbing something quicklyon the go. Guess I will have to get more organised. I have no particular end goal but will start with getting to 13st which is 1st 2lbs away. Had scrambled egg, smoked salmon and a clementine for breakfast. Just heading to a circuits class with some friends. Wish me luck! My fitness is awful. I may be in pain tomorrow ;)

I lost 8lbs in my first week, was absolutely staggered.

I am not considering this as a diet but as a whole new way of eating which both me and DS are adopting,

DS is autistic and when it comes to food he has no stop button. I am doing this for both of us....three weeks ago I noticed that DS had developed stretch marks and I was devastated. I knew then that everything had to change. I have overhauled all his packed lunches...,, he no longer gets crisps in them but can have Snack a jacks (4.5 syns) and he has fruit as well as a small sandwich. I use the Hovis Wholemeal 400g loaf.

I do keep the Snack a jacks in the car though after spending an hour sorting clothes upstairs one evening and coming down to find he had consumed all four bags!

So we have cucumber in the fridge and frozen berries defrosting. He can have those/pick at them without causing too much damage.

Woo, I did better in my second week than I did in my first as I lost 4lbs. To be fair, I have been 100% but I am so pleased with 4lbs. That's 7.5lbs now, which is great, but initially I want to lose 60lbs so I have a long way to go yet.

Hi all,
Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year.
I put on 2lbs over Christmas and 1lb over New Year, i've lost 1.5lbs of it, so pretty happy with that.

My main problem is that I'm constantly starving!! I'm not craving naughty stuff, I just seem to have a never ending hunger. I'm drinking 2 litres of water every day, and eating tonnes of superfree. Has anyone else noticed this since Christmas?

Wow jake that's amazing! Well done!

I have lost two pounds the first week and one last night, so only three pounds overall. Bit of a slow start but then I'm finding it hard not to stuff myself with chocolate t the moment.

Off to be weighed this morning. No eating out this week so hoping for 2lbs. I will be content with 1lb though.....in a year that would make nearly 4 stones which is my initial goal....and I will do it too.

Will report back Smile

I'd like to join in here please. I just started SW online this week. Struggling a little getting the Healthy Extra A&B in, but slowly working it out.

I bought the Blue Diamond unsweetened almond milk (on sale at Sains for £1 a litre), and just about fell over laughing at how much 875ml of almond milk really is (for the Healthy Extra A).

Hi, do u mind if I join in please?!

Restarted again today for the millionth time but something feels different this time - I'm feeling really motivated and positive, I've even just done an exercise dvd!

I've got just over 1.5 to loose and a very wobbly tummy to tone up!

Hello! Lost 3lb this week and am amazed given what I ate on Saturday. I'm now back to my lightest so far (4.5 stone since last January).

DH & I won 'Couple of the Year' tonight. Although, since we're the only couple there, it wasn't that difficult Grin.
