Slimming World support thread #5 2017

[ALemonyPea]

A thread for asking questions and general SW support. Welcome oldies and newbies.

Half a lb on, a bit meh about it, but I can live with that. 1lb to target now, will hopefully get it next week. Think I know where I've gone wrong, at least I know I can fix it.

Well done on getting target Dave, excellent.

Well done everyone else on your losses.

To get my head back in the game and not do a binge day, I've took my measurements, inspired by Groovees inch loss. I only measured myself after I'd lost 1.5 stone, so lost a little more inches, but I am so pleased with what I'm looking at.

Arms - 1 inch off
Hips - 9.5 inches off
Thigh - 3.5 inches off
Waist - 10 inches off
Chest - 6.5 inches off

I've lost a total of 35 inches

That's amazing inch loss @ALemonyPea! Well done on that achievement. You can get target next week.

Yay Congratulations Dave!!!! So pleased for you!!

Lemony, how disappointing but at least you know where you went wrong. Give it 100% this week and you will definitely get it next week. great inch losses there though you must be so pleased.

Well done Minnie!

I weigh in tonight, hate doing evening weigh in. I was toying with skipping lunch but I would be starving so I went with Tuna Salad. Feeling proud of making the right choice.

Amazing inch losses on here! Will have to dig mine out.
And brilliant dave for hitting target. I've still got 11lb to go which is one step forward 2 steps back at the moment!

Some fabulous inch losses on here! I wish I had done mine when I started but I never got round to it

Thanks both for the info. Quite a lot to choose from there

Well done Dave! Bad luck lemony, that last lb is so hard to lose!

Leaving in 10 mins for weigh in. Feeling nervous!

Good luck nacho

Well done Dave and all the losers.

Just off for WI here, too. If wind weighed lbs I would be a stone lighter than I was this morning I did an SP day yesterday to try and claw back from the weekend, but all it seems to do for me is give me terrible wind. Not smelly, but shockingly noisy!!!!

Well haven't been to weigh in as dh was late home from work and I was planning to weigh and run anyway as I've got another commitment later this pm. Oh well, will have to wait till next week to find out the damage!

Gained 1lb. No idea how or why. Gutted. But off to Burlesque and will have it off next week x

Aww groove that's a shame especially when you don't know why.

I lost 1.5lb which is a bit disappointing considering I have really given it my all. I even synned a bloody takeaway but I guess little by little still gets me there.

Aww Groovee it's awful when you have a gain when you're not expecting it.

Nacho, 1.5lb is still a loss, well done. Just don't have a take away next week and you might have a better loss. It all adds up.

DH is out tonight with his friends from TKD, I am so bored and taking all my will power not to finish off the box of M&Ms he got off the DC for Father's Day that is sitting across the room making sexy eyes at me. Might have to shove them in my mouth in a drawer.

Bloody hell 2lb on for me! I don't think I deserved as much as that. Oh well, I am going to really try to get most of that off next week. I seem to be having to struggle for every single lb now.

Oh no PA! I think the heatwave and the excess fluids people are drinking is having an effect on people's weight loss. Fingers crossed it shows next week.

PA it sucks doesn't it. I know what you mean about struggling for every 1lb and it's even worse if you think it's not deserved!

2lb off this morning, my scales were reading a sts so I'm very happy that I got a loss.

Oh I forgot to ask, I'm visiting a friend tomorrow and always take cake
What is my best best syn wise? I was thinking a cream meringue but that won't survive the heat of the car for an hour!
Any suggestions please??

I found this it looks like french fancies or a very small slice of ordinary cake are lowest.

@PositiveAttitude I hear you. No
Idea why I have gained.

Fondant fancies are only 5.5 syns? Why am I only learning about this now!

I am going to do this! I have woken up determined to have a good week. I am going to write down EVERYTHING I eat. I WILL be having a loss next Tuesday.

Oooh thanks boat a box of French fancies it is! She doesn't like chocolate
fool so that's ideal. I've never seen that cake chart, so thank you

Go PA 💃you can do this! You're not called PA for nothing!
