Thank you Smile

Well done to everyone else too.

I got on the scales this morning and I'm officially in the 18s! I started slimming world at 20:2.5!

I'm very happy Smile

GiraffeAHolic · 25/07/2017 11:16

I have my first weigh in at 7:30 tonight, slightly apprehensive as according to my scales my weight is fluctuating all over the place and I feel like I'm eating so much! Trying to work out what the lightest thing to wear to group would be. Trying to fit in as much speed food as possible today and will eat dinner after group (have salmon in fridge ready).

caremummy · 25/07/2017 11:21

I'm sure it will balance out, I've seen people in very light clothing - it becomes a competition at our group to whose wearing the lightest.
I've had a LM sausage sandwich (7) and a go on alpro yoghurt (1).

Down -3lbs this week - am now 0.5lbs off my 1stone award! I have tried really hard this week so I'm sure next week I'll get it.

YoureMyWifeNowDave · 25/07/2017 12:24

5lbs on this morning so I'm still in target range (just about!)

I'm quite pleased with that as an awful lot of cake, cocktails and ice cream has been consumed over the past 2 weeks.

I have 3 weeks to get back to the bottom of my range ready for a week of cream teas in Cornwall Grin

Groovee · 25/07/2017 12:30

Well done @ibuiltahomeforyou

@YoureMyWifeNowDave that's not bad for a 2 week holiday gain. Mine was more than that for a week.

Batch cook lentil chilli done

Well done all losers!
I am weighing in this afternoon at a different group, as I double booked myself this morning. I have had lunch, so not expecting great things. I really really really want a pound off, which will take me to target, as I am on my last week of my current countdown. I have tried hard this week. We shall see.

ALemonyPea · 25/07/2017 14:17

Well done losers.

I stayed the same, happy with that as only 0.5lb over target weight. Want to get that as low as possible before my holiday, 3 weeks to go, should be easy.

Never, I've bought some of those for myself as well. Can't wait to have one. A bit cold now though, it's like a winters day!

GiraffeAHolic · 25/07/2017 14:22

Ooh I have a box of those in the freezer, figured they'd be a complete no no. Didn't think to check the syn value!

Thebluedog · 25/07/2017 14:26

First post on here, I had my first weigh in on Wednesday so due for my first week on the plan tomorrow. I've tried to stay off my scales at home as I can easily derail my progress if I don't see anything come off straight away, so I'm waiting for tomorrow.

I'm off for a romantic weekend in Scotland with my dh Friday, I'll try and keep my sins for the champagne. We've opted for self catering so I can at least try and be good. I want to make the most if it whilst I'm really motivated.

Groovee · 25/07/2017 14:39

Well done to those weighed in already.

Welcome @Thebluedog, enjoy your weekend.

I have such a sore tummy. Not sure if it's linked to my recovery, if I need a poo or if I have urine issue!

NSV though, a dress I bought in March, fits great. It's always been too tight.

Greenteandchives · 25/07/2017 17:21

Thrilled to have reached my target, and gone half a pound under. I know it wasn't as much as some people-I lost 13 pounds in 15 weeks, including a cruise, so that's not too bad. Sorry not to be with 'my' group for today's weigh in, as I had to go to another one. I couldn't have done it without SW support. Smile

FoofFighter · 25/07/2017 17:41

Aw that's a shame greentea but huge well done!
Had this zinger rice box today for 11 syns well worth the "spend" I got beans too as hadn't seen one before in case it was small but it was massive! Can get a non chicken version for 4 syns.

NeverEnoughSleep1 · 25/07/2017 18:10

Congrats greentea

foo that looks amazing! Can't believe it's 11syns!!

I've cooked SW jalfrazi curry and it smells amazing made SW samosas aswell there just about to go in the oven and going to have some broccoli spears as extra speed

OwlinaTree · 25/07/2017 19:07

Well done on getting to target green and well done losers! I have finally had a loss, 1.5 off so pleased with that.

I had set my target in my head but think I might go 3lb under that so I've got a bit of leeway, and I'll be happy anywhere in the target range then. So 5.5lb to go to the new target. At this rate it will take another couple of months! Still I'm not in a rush.

Pleased I finally had a loss though!

ALemonyPea · 25/07/2017 19:51

Well done Greentea.

Greenteandchives · 25/07/2017 20:03

Thanks everyone. The difference it has made to me is quite noticeable as I am not very tall. I am very happy to be able to fit into my clothes again. Hoping I can keep it off now. Smile

ibuiltahomeforyou · 25/07/2017 20:05

Had to leave group this week as my baby DD was sobbing - and I was slimmer of the week!

I missed out on the basket!!

Groovee · 25/07/2017 20:17

Well done @Greenteandchives and @OwlinaTree.

I lost 1.5lbs so happy with that. Bought the macaroon hifi bar. They are lovely.

Just had steak for tea. Have had no syns today.

TurquoiseOwl · 25/07/2017 20:19

If you get slimmer of the week they keep your certificate/sticker for the week after, don't they? My old group did, but this time this consultant would only give slimmer of the year (I think that's what it's called) or diamond member of the year (I think that's it actually!) to the person in the group and if they didn't stay, it went to the next most suitable person?

I miss my cards too! I used to enjoy those Grin

TurquoiseOwl · 25/07/2017 20:21

Was just thinking and from July 2015 - December 2015, I put on 4 stone ShockBlush

BasinHaircut · 25/07/2017 20:44

Well done owlina and greentea.

loving the look of that rice box, will have to remember that!

Had the pastitsio for dinner tonight, haven't had it for ages. Got a portion for lunch tomorrow, and I've prepped the chicken and veg for tomorrow night's paprika chicken and rice whilst tonight's dinner was cooking.

Go me!

Some lovely loses on here this week....and targets. Well done everyone.

And I can't believe it! Away for the weekend and totally off plan. I expected a gain, but came in with a 2lb loss and this beauty!! Totally unexpected! I am so bloody chuffed. I honestly had to check the first numbers on the scale because I thought I had put on 12 lb instead of losing 2!!! I very nearly cried!! Blush
