Do you go to class ?
How long have you been doing it & how much have you lost ?

I am on my second week (weigh-in tomorrow). I go to a weigh and go class in the city in my lunch hour and have lost 8lbs so far. I miss going to an actual class though so am looking for some support on here.

ITS PUSHED ME TO GO FURTHER AND DO MORE WALKING.

Just started ww today. I should lose 3 stone but would be happy with 2.

My problem is I usually lose 10pounds and then I get bored/lose my stamina or things pop up to encourage me down the path of alcohol and food. I'm hoping that this time I can do it.

How about some recipes, I'm starting to get bored with salmon stir fry plus Blue Dragon sauce (4.5 points) NO noodles though.

i really dont get the no count thing! anyone fancy explaining the ins and outs to me? i heard this woman raving over it the other day at work (yes, work.....i have started back after 8 months of maternity leave - i am not happy, miss my baby girl far too much!! - also its a new job in a caoofee house, full of gorgeous cakes pastries, sandwiches muffins etc....it is really hard not to sample them all, i hope i dont give in one day...!)

lucykatie · 06/03/2005 20:44

hi squeezy, lost 3 pound this week so really pleased and i have noticed it aswell, gor two notches on my belt as opposed to one!!!

HOWEVER....dh has been really bad today and spoiled me rotten then took me out for a lovely dinner, he told me to forget my sodding points today and eat what i like......so i did!
DID GO ON A 2 MILE WALK AFTER THOUGH SO NOT TOO BAD EH.

HOWS EVERYONE ELSE DOING?

wozzle1 · 07/03/2005 10:37

Not had a great week...went to my friends for dinner on Friday night and had a kind of healthy mexican!! I have been saving some points since then so hopefully wont be too bad when I go to weigh in this wed. Just hoping that the birthday cake that I demolished wont be to harmful...
got to lose another 7lbs to get to 2 stone...got to get into that bikini this June!!!

fairycakes · 07/03/2005 19:20

does anyone know if there is a way of roughly working out the saturated fat if only the fat content is displayed on the nutritional information?

i stayed the same again this week, although im not surprised as i had a bad weekened. Hopefully will get on track again this week as got 3 weeks til dd's christening and i am determined not to look fat for the photos so she wont think she had a fat mummy when she looks at them later on in life!!!.....hmm!

Ags · 07/03/2005 20:01

Hi, to roughly work out saturated fat if only fat is shown, divide by 2. That is what my ww leader told me when I asked the same question. Don't know quite how accurate it will be but think it is fairly close most of the time.

Good luck

WELL DONE EVERYONE SO FAR.

Berries · 10/03/2005 14:23

Only lost 5.5 lb this week , mind you, did go out and have had a lot of wine this week (oops). Still, makes 16 lb in 9 weeks, so not complaining too much. Need to refind my motivation to make sure I get rid of the other 2st by July.

Berries · 10/03/2005 14:23

I wish - that should, of course, have been 0.5lb

wozzle1 · 10/03/2005 14:26

I lost 2lbs this week, which Iam really pleased about, especially since i had that birthday cake and went to a friends for dinner but I have been trying to save points during the week to counteract those I had overeaten...guess it works!

Lucykatie, let us know how u get on...remember the trip to the loo before you go!!!
