Well I still manage to lose another 3.5lb, am feeling good. On track for my target of Club 10 by Christmas still- 9.5lb to go and 5 weeks, so 2lb a week. I can do that!!

Kniternator · 15/11/2011 23:27

Well done. What a great loss!

Good luck with weigh ins this week. Fingers crossed.

Kniternator · 16/11/2011 22:27

Lost 2.5lbs tonight. Got my stone award. Only 4lbs til Club 10.

Let us know how you've been doing.

AuntieDoris · 17/11/2011 08:07

3.5lbs off for me today. Not too excited as that was all the weight I put on last week!

GravityDefier · 17/11/2011 13:19

Well done on everyone's weight loss!
I missed weigh in this week because of going out with DP and having way too much food that day!
On sunday I am invited to a cocktail night, not sure how that works with SW Wink Next weigh in is the day after.

GravityDefier · 17/11/2011 13:20

oh and Auntie, that is still a great weight loss. At least it's going back into the right direction

Kniternator · 18/11/2011 22:04

Well done folks. Keep up the good work! Smile

Fakeblondie · 21/11/2011 23:10

Hi
Can i join please.
I`ve half a stone to lose and already lost a stone on SW but really havent the time to attendthe club .x

GravityDefier · 22/11/2011 13:08

Hello Fakeblondie,
well done on losing a stone! That's quite impressive. So do you just do it from home or do you use the online program?

RainbowFishes · 23/11/2011 08:21

Hello all, Well done auntdoris on losing 3.5lbs! Hope everyone does well this week.

I only had 1 lb off so far but and im aiming to lose ten by xmas so im half way there already.

I had a house warming with friends on thur and dinner and cinema on sat and canapes at work on sun so i was not holding out much hope, going to be extra good this week incase it all catches up with me!

ManCrushedToDeathByALift · 23/11/2011 13:03

Hi everyone, well done on losses- I have my first GAIN to announce Blush. Only 1lb but still... I did deserve it this week, I had got complacent. It's been a good kick up the bum for me though, I feel 10x as determined now. My target for this week is to lose 4.5lb- I want to get my 2stone award next week. Wish me luck!

ManCrushedToDeathByALift · 23/11/2011 13:05

Oops sorry everyone, forgot to say I namechanged, I was debka at the start of the thread!

We had one lady at group reach target last night, she's done so well, 2 stone in 17 weeks. Another one is 2.5lb off target and when she gets there she'll have lost 5 stone in just over a year. I am so impressed by them.

Fakeblondie · 23/11/2011 21:19

gravity I'm only following it about a third of the time as so much going on at moment. I'd like to go to sw club again but it's just time. here will hopefully be just as good x

AuntieDoris · 24/11/2011 07:56

Just 1/2lb off for me this week.

RainbowFishes · 28/11/2011 11:02

I came to confess that i have been so off the rails and a take away pizza and chips plus choc orange did not bode well for a monday am weigh in soooooo i put in a hol for this week and im determined to do extra well for next mon weigh in.

So i have had a lovey breakie of 2 frylite fried eggs, 2 slices of whole meal from b choice, beans and 2 veggie sausages all free apart from low fat spead on toast.

Currently have sweet potato and carrots roasting for soup and will bring a chicken salad to work for dinner.

I must do well as i have my xmas party in 4 weeks and want to feel good next to the skinny minis.

Kniternator · 28/11/2011 15:54

Weigh in on Wednesday, not expecting to lose as it was DHs 40th on Saturday and drank and ate too much. Well done again on your weigh ins. I'll let you know how I get on.

elsma · 30/11/2011 23:12

Oh, hello... Can I join you? I started SW online tonight. Have been piling lbs on since dd1 was born 10yrs ago. Ive set an initial target of 14lbs. I am really impressed with tales if 2st in 17wks. Sounds too good to be true! Hope it is like that for me. Anyway, I work long hours so can't get to a meeting. Figured that I could meet you!

Kniternator · 03/12/2011 21:28

Welcome elsma.

It has really worked for me. Although I put on this week, the support I receive at group really helps and makes me more determined. If you work at it 100% it will work. There are so many great recipes too and my family just eat what I eat.

Good luck and remember to keep us posted. Smile

Kniternator · 07/12/2011 21:32

Lost 2.5lbs this week. Really happy.

AuntieDoris · 08/12/2011 08:38

1.5lbs on for me this week. Think that my work do and other social events scuppered me this week!

Kniternator · 09/12/2011 13:21

I'm determined to have a good week this week. Got work Christmas meal on the 17th and it is strained at home at the moment. So I hope I don't return to old habits.

obrigada · 09/12/2011 15:47

Hi, can I join? Starting SW eating plan (Extra Easy) tomorrow, not attending a class as can't really afford it Sad.

Kniternator · 09/12/2011 20:11

You are most welcome obrigada. Hope your first week goes well.

elsma · 09/12/2011 22:09

Not an insane fluke, it does just seem to work. In the first 2 weeks I lost 8.5 lbs. Stick with it and well done. Grin
