SLIMMING WORLD - WE CAN DO IT - NEW THREAD

[Sparkler1]

Hi everyone. Hope you don't mind but thought I'd take the opportunity of starting a new thread as the other one is huge!

So how is everyone getting on? Are you getting through the weekend okay without too many temptations?

I have had a very successful first two days back on the Slimming World Plan. It's surprising how much I remember about it and I haven't been to group for 6+ months. I arranged to go to group with Surfermum this time round. She definately inspired me to get back onto it. She has done so well and her weight loss is really noticeable - she looks great!
When the evening came to go to group I will say that, although I knew that I must lose weight, my motivation wasn't 100% there. Now I have got my shopping in and have started writing out my food diary I am really enjoying it. DH made himself a proper greasy fry up yesterday morning - the works! And I found the willpower to say no - to be honest the smell of the grease was enough to put me off anyway.
Found the new Mullerlight yogs yesterday - they have loads of new ones now don't they? I tried the sticky toffee pudding one - yum!

Well done strawberry, that's fab!

I am off to my meeting this morning. I hope I have dropped a couple of pounds after last week's disappointing result. I actually feel lighter, so fingers crossed!

intergalacticwerewolf..thanks..howd it go for you??

just had nicest and very filling lunch..jacke potato with a ful packet(!) of p.i.s (pasta in sauce)chicken and mushroom, just made with water and throw in chopped toms and cucumber...am totally stuffed..was totally free and.ahh..feel like a sleep now!

I've only ever had pasta and sauce on it's own as it seems odd to have it with potato for some reason - is it really nice, it certainly sounds it?!! I've never thought of adding anything to it either so I will have to give that a go.

Still keen to know how intergalaticwerewolf has done!

Has anyone noticed a difference in their weight loss by drinking lots of water?

Well done, Strawb! You must be so pleased! x

i am MorticiaRed thankyou!

quick question..i have been hooked on pespi max/coke zero recently and although 'free' dya think my weight loss would be better if i drank more water/cordial???

just realised how my lunch read earlier..oh yes i had p.i.s all over my jacket potatoe

morning!
lol straw, sounds yummy, eh?!
no, seriously - sounds like a lovely lunch!
(was the chicken your HE?)

well, everybody says if you do a diet drink loads of water - so it might help

not doing well at all!!!!
ever since coming back from holiday i am so off the wagon 'grrrrrrr'

please send me some motivation!!!!!!!
main meals are not so bad; i sort of stick to it
but inbetween lots of sweet things and i can't seem to be able to stop!! i guess it doesn't help that i am having a rough time at home with ill kids but that still isn't an excuse, eh?!

for sweeyness, i eat melon and lots of it or bananas??..think ill leave the papsi max today and try water..although pepsi max gives me my sugar fix so i dont want sweet things as much!

oops sorry, the chicken and mushroom was the pasta in saucei didnt add it and they are free on green!

Grapes are lovely and sweet, also toffee mullerlite. My Mum gave me a box of quality street at the weekend, I was a bit worried that I'd stuff the lot, but they are 2 syns each, so I am having 4 or 5 each evening. Well done strawberry, that must have given you a tremendous boost LOL

My weigh-in in tonight...am dreading it! I had 1.5lb on last week... I can only hope that I have it off this week!

ooohhh...a boost..could just eat one

having a red day today..crab sticks galore again!

I'm completely off the rails this week. Haven't even looked at my book or a food diary. In fact don't even think I've eaten a piece of fruit .
Have had a dreadful cold and have just been eating rubbish. Will get back onto it though - haven't given up yet!

Hello all,

I lost 3lbs! Very chuffed, which is 1 stone 5 since January. Not bad considering I was pg for 9 months of that! It's DP's birthday next Thurs, so I need to be good in order to counteract the fact I will probably eat my weight (which is alot ) in takeaway and chocolate and drink lots iof vino. We have a midweek roast for tea tonight, with lots of roasties, so I am loking forward to that!

Badkarma, good luck for you weigh in.

WELL DONE intergalacticwerewolf!

weve all been waiting

well cant be certain but had pack of ocean sticks around lunch time, went to playgroup with girls and have had S&V ever since..feel like crap..sorry bad choice of words

S&D not S&V

Strawberry - I eat loads of crabsticks in one go - I am totally addicted to them believe me! A packet lasts me about 2 minutes

There is a sickness bug going around at the moment though, 4 people at my work have been off with it and my mum, dad and gran have all had it too (not more than 24 hours really) so it's probably a bug you have picked up. Hope you feel better soon!

Aw Strawb (Although on the bright side it could mean a good weightloss next week)

I had 1.5lb off... just what I had gained last week So I shall have to try harder this week... shall need a lot of encouragement. And for those that don't know, the new password this week is pumpkin

Well done on all the losses . I had my weigh in tonight and lost 3 pounds and got slimmer of the week the basket was brill it even had a pumpkin in there! I've lost 24.5 pounds in 9 weeks can't believe i've only got 3.5 pounds till i've lost 2 stone I've lost more weight than my baby son weighs

OOh yeah I also got my club 10 and this weeks password is pumpkin.

Excellent ledodgy!!!! My class was tonight too! You're not from NI are you? I came home, sat down and ate beans with toast...and then had a bar of choc and a pkt of crisps.... I only eat them on a Wed night though...that's me til next week!! I have lost 6lb in 6 weeks... I ALWAYS lose weight this slowly.. takes me ages

No not in NI, i'm in Liverpool. IMO Wednesday nights do NOT count I went back to my friends step mums and had a few glasses of red and then come home to the stew my dp and dcs had earlier (tis neither red nor green but very nice). I think of it like this.. when you first go you never start the diet till the next day so night after weigh in you still have 7 whole days left so this is my night off am drinking another glass of red as I speak.

6Ib in 6 weeks is fab btw slow and steady stays off.

I'm the same, I won't count what I eat tonight.. good job too

You know the sheets you get to fill in for the first few weeks? I have run out of mine, you don't know if there is anywhere online that you can download them off do you? I meant to ask the consultant tonight for some more but it went out of my head!
