Slimming World support Part 3

[calzone]

How exciting.....page 3 of our SW saga.

I am 38lbs down since we started.....how are you all doing?

It took me 2 years - Annarose, though tbh it was more like 5 one year and 3 the next...I could have done it faster, but, I'm happy that I did it so it's sustainable if that makes sense? That I'm ok if I have gains because I've had whatever I wanted at a restaurant or something like that.

I'm rubbish at tips, because mostly it's just, stick at it and if at any point you can't or don't want to, get back on it as soon as possible instead of beating yourself up about it.

Wow wow wow everyone looks amazing!! Tabulah you look amazing like a completely different person!

I've not posted much recently as I've not being doing it! I went for weigh in tonight and I've put on 2lbs in 2 weeks which I'm actually quite relieved about as I've been totally off plan. As long as don't put ridiculous amounts on I'm ok with a small gain during December.

Hope everyone is feeling festive and looking forward to Xmas.

Calzone I spotted what you were having for dinner on Xmas day on a different thread it sounds yummy

Lost 1lb tonight.

0.5lb off to my 3 stone award......😨

Oh no Calzone - how annoying I really hate the half pounds that scupper things. Onwards and downwards koko

I have just squeezed in to a size 12 pair of jeans
I've lost 18lbs in 12 weeks and it's finally beginning to show.

(They may be Next, and still a bit tight, but I'm in!!!)

Ooh congrats! (And jealous)

Thank you Anna! It's made my day. And I'm quite prepared to wear and sleep in them for the whole of Christmas to ensure I can still get in them come next week

Well done blondie! Feels fab doesn't it?

Am getting a bit big headed with all the compliments :)

Need to be a bit on plan til Tuesday when I see The Family......

It does Calzone, thanks!

Haven't been on plan today so will have to try and pull it back a bit after tomorrow

blondie.....have we had your photos yet?

Wow looking gorgeous ladies!
Not doing so well myself, picking at food, not counting syns, but sticking to healthy meals . Will get back on it properly on Sunday .

I do quite a bit of exercise overit, its not super speeding my weight loss but I feel quite toned and it's great for my mood!
Made soup today and shoved in a parsnip as have too many for tomorrow, made the soup lovely and sweet , the kids loved it!
B porridge, milk, raisins
L homemade soup , 1 bread
D homemade meatballs, salad, courgetti
Syns slice garlic bread, some booze, some choc, a mince pie and slice Xmas cake
2 hrs gym this morning [hopeful...]
Family arrived at mine with lots of xmas food and drink . But positive point I'm in charge of the main meals.

Boxing Day......shawarma chicken with babaganoush, rice and wraps
Sunday.....roast chicken and vegetables
Monday.....vegetable soup

Merry Christmas all.

Sat waiting for the household to wake up..must resist the quality street!

Merry Christmas SW slimmers!

Today will be guilt free eating and drinking for me

Am not putting a dampener on anyone's day but just be careful or you could end up like I did with terrible stomach cramps and feeling Bleurgh......

I just kept eating everything.
Am now trying to just eat good stuff and drink water too.

Do go off plan but be kind to yourself.

Merry Christmas all!

I've been off plan since yesterday but trying to exercise an ounce or two of restraint

(Calzone, no before pics but I'm about half way so will take some soon!)

Hoping to have attached a pic of me yesterday in my new jeans!

Flying through to say hello. I'm flexi-synning like a boss.

You know it's going to be a bad day when it's trifle for breakfast

I can't stop eating but I think Im coming to the end of it now as I feel rubbish!

I've got italian Christmas Day tomorrow which I'm really looking forward to then I'm back on plan. I'm staying in on nye with the babies while dp takes the older two to a party so I'm just going to bed so no temptation.

Back on plan tomorrow......

B....porridge with Yoghurt and fruit
L....soup
D.....roast chicken, potatoes, swede, cauliflower, carrots, y puds, gravy

Back on plan today.

I feel awful, bloated and cal you were right about the stomach cramps.

Weigh in tomorrow to see the damage I've caused!

Sadly no ill effects from going off plan for me but I'm still going to try and get back on plan from today to make Tuesday's weigh in less traumatic!

I honestly feel like death even though I haven't eaten close to what I would have pre-SW! Just had a rooibos and some water...very light day for me I think. Weigh in on Wednesday...

I over indulged too and was when I went on the scales last night. Back on plan today and I will be drinking lots of water in the hope I can lose a bit before weigh in next week.

How bad we talking ttt? I reckon easily 4lb on for me!

5lbs I blame the Xmas pud and profiteroles ( and maybe the prosecco).
I weigh in Tuesday so should be able to lose 2lbs at least by then (fingers crossed).
