Slimming World Support 2016.....Come and join us!

[calzone]

A brand new thread for 2016.....:)

For old and new members alike....please join in and post food plans, meal ideas, how you use syns, weight losses and gains, how you feel.

I started exactly a year ago on 4 January 2015.
I weighed 14st 3lbs and was a size 16. Bloated and uncomfortable, I was mortified when I saw the scales.
In week 1, I lost 9lbs which has motivated me ever since.
I currently weigh 11st 3.5lbs and just missed my 3 stone certificate at Xmas. Put on 2lbs last week and not really expecting a loss this week but I want to get to 11 stone and then re set my target to 10 stone 7lbs.

I have gone down to a comfortable size 12 and even wore a size 10 Fat Face dress yesterday.

So, let's do this.

I feel quite excited. SW has definitely changed my life......:)

FoofFighter - sent you a follow request on Insta! I'm @BristolBites...

Ohhh your food looks amazing! don't look at mine hahahaa

3.5 off tonight - v chuffed, more than I expected. Am celebrating with a malteaser reindeer! 8.5 syns, I think)

I eat huge meals, still seems to work. I do get better results if I up the speed food ratios though.

BirdingWidow I am also a birding widow!

I have also had a vv stressful day and have eaten all sorts. Back on plan tomorrow I am going to try to start with the baked oats my class has been raving about!

Oriana I saw your other thread earlier is everything ok now? I'm not surprised you've not been concentrating on so I'd have been beside myself!

Our own # could be great! #swmums
Maybe?

Weigh in tonight and I lost 1.5lb so really pleased with that. Also had some great feedback from my consultant that one member last week said my support at the scales was what helped her come back again this week so made my weigh in duties feel worth it and making a difference.

Feeling motivated for the week ahead. 3lb off my new weight bracket and been to pick up the process if I am going to hit my interim target for my holiday so that's my target for the week ahead. Lots of water and speed food for me!

And a snow pic for those without any on my walk back from group

4lb off for me today
b - no time this morning after 30 minute walk with dog before work.
L - kingsmill wholemeal thin (hxb) with 1 tspn countrylife lighter (1.5) beetroot salad and 30g cheese (hxa), followed by 150g pot of skyr (1)
D - pork chop with fat removed, boiled potatoes, carrots, broccoli, peas and gravy (2)
Frozen curly wurly (6)
50ml of skimmed milk for tea (1)
Total syns 11.5

ooh quite a lot of snow... we have a dusting (far N. Scotland)

You can do baked oats without fruit, I always put it on raw after, am buggered if I am synning sodding fruit!

Are you social team? Do you get any perks for doing it? My group leader was asking for anyone interested

Yes I'm on the social team and sometimes take the payments but always prefer doing the scales.

I think perks vary from group to group but I get some tshirts to wear in group, the new umbrella when it came out and some cooks books but nothing is structured or specific.

My day (not been to bed yet)
B = 2x Alpen light bars (HE B)
L = asda cauliflower rice mixed with a tomato mugshot
D = salad with eggs and chicken tikka pieces and quark

Milk in teas for HE A

... Oh and a muller with blackberries

I'm on the social team too foof.

It makes me go every week and we do have a laugh.....we get a tshirt and a free magazine sometimes.

Weigh in today in 2hrs. Wish me luck

I'm also on social team. I haven't had a t shirt but we get the magazine free and occasionally get to try new hi fi bars before they go on sale. We tend to find out what's new before everyone else too. I like it as it makes me go every week plus I've got to know people better.

Good luck polly!

Well done on losses cowboy and Birding!

Foof...thanks for adding me on Insta!

And good luck Polly!

ok have started to put pics on instagram with the hashtag #mumsnetsw so you can all find each other :)

PLans for today:

B: porridge hexb made with vanilla mullerlight and water, added 2 yns of raisins and a chopped pear at the end
L: liver and onions in oxo "gravy" with sw chips, mixed veg
T: stirfry veg with a can of those heinz curry lentil things

buttwing all fine now thank you but struggling to get back on plan now. Wine has been opened (I did only have a glass) but my sis is coming to visit and we do like wine with our chats. Luckily she wants to be healthy at the moment so we're likely to forego the takeaway.

I am hoping calzone missed he thread and doesn't know I ate doughnuts (and pork pies)

fooffighter It was shorthand really, he's potty trained but had had an accident and that's the bucket we always use for such things

1.5 off and that makes it 4 1/2 stone down - woo hoo!

2 1/2lb off, 5otal 1st3lb since 3rd dec! Goal for next week is 4lb to get 1 1/2st award
