Hi all. I’ve recently had a baby and have 1 stone 11lb to lose. I only started last week and my motivation is already waning. Does anyone want a slimming world buddy?

Good luck @Parkermumma07 I’m sure the chips won’t make too much difference!

I got weighed earlier and have maintained so now the worst thing but could have been better I think I need to up my speed food intake see if that makes a difference

Definitely not the worst thing! I need to try and get back to it tomorrow so will focus on speed too. Good reminder- thank you. We’ve had a disaster of a day here so all food prep has gone Out the window.

Sorry I'm late to the party but please could I join? I rejoined SW last week so have my first weigh-in tomorrow. I'm a bridesmaid for my sister in 3 weeks and I'd really like to feel more confident be able to breathe in the bridesmaid dress by then. I hope I can keep going then and lose a chunk more weight by Christmas, and start the New Year right!
@Jellington hope you're recovering from your disastrous day now and it's nothing that can't be fixed

Jellington · 08/10/2021 02:36

Welcome @Mumobag! Great! It’s definitely good to have something to aim for!

6.5lbs off! Always easiest in the first week though.

It's my daughter's birthday tomorrow so I'll just have to try to steer clear of the cake, sausage rolls and icecream HaloGrin

I lost another 3.5lbs last week and it’s weigh day tomorrow. Feeling quietly confident, I’m quite on it at the moment! How is everyone doing?

PurpleFlower1983 · 13/10/2021 11:02

Weigh day today I’ve lost another 2lbs so that’s half a stone in 3 weeks. Happy with that! Smile

Hi, can I join please?! I've been on slimming World for nearly 2 years now (at target for 16 months) but now I'm pregnant with baby number 2, really don't want to put on as much weight as my first! Haven't weighed in for 8 weeks but going back next week, but feeling nervous because I know I have put on a few pounds in my first trimester!! Has anyone done sw whilst pregnant? How does it work?

I did this year, started in January and had my baby in July, you get an extra HEB and you have to get your midwife to sign a form although my consultant didn’t check mine after the first time. The day before I gave birth I was 5lbs lighter than when I started and then I lost 18lbs in the 2 weeks after. Baby was a healthy 8lbs.

Good morning everyone!

How are you all doing? Sorry I’ve been a bit AWOL. We had a bit of extended family drama to contend with so it’s been a rough few weeks. I’ve managed to lose another couple of pounds though despite having started gaining muscle so I’m super pleased. How are you all getting on?

PurpleFlower1983 · 23/10/2021 08:19

Well done on your 2lb loss! That’s amazing!

I got another 2lbs off this week, total weight loss since January 2nd is now 2 stone which doesn’t sound that good but I have had a baby in that time, he’s 3 months now.

PurpleFlower1983 · 29/10/2021 10:43

How is everyone doing? I got another 2.5lbs off this week, very pleased.

Ilikecheeseontoast · 01/11/2021 21:03

Hi, can I join please? I’ve had 3 kids in 4 years and I’m 1.5 stone fatter than I’d like to be. I’ve not actually joined a group yet but planning to this week hopefully. Am trying to plan this week’s evening meals. So far I’ve got good old Spag Bol and a Tuna jacket with Salad. Not very inspiring! What does everyone else have planned?

PurpleFlower1983 · 24/01/2022 21:47

How is everyone getting on? I’ve not been properly on it since Christmas, I was sabotaged by the booze and chocolates! Now I have holidays to contend with! I’ve not gained though which is good I suppose! How are you all doing?
