SLIMMING WORLD - the not so sparkly place <secret handshake>

[MamaG]

New thread as old kept crashing mine and tits' PCs!

Dont be too jelous, I have put on 1lb now, despite never breaking the diet and doing excerise. I should learn not to weigh myself too often - its just what I altomatically do when I go on the wii fit. Not taking it too seriously though as I know it varies day to day anyway. As long as the general weight is going down then I dont mind!

can anyone advise if you havent been to slimming world for a month how much it costs to go back there r two of us so couldnt afford 4.50 x 8 tbh

and it is due to illness that i avent been

they would just re-join you and I think it's half price atm

They won't charge you 8 weeks.

Hi all - was on hols last week, going to go WI n ow but it will NOT be good news...!

ouch.

4lbs on

Mama G, if you enjoyed your holiday then thats whats important. The 4lb can soon be lost, We are having an all inclusive week in tennerife in september and I know I will gain but TBH I am not going to worry about it and will make the most of eating everything while I am there!

It'll come off quick MamaG. Why is that? Weight we put on quickly like that always seem to come off just as quickly too.

Went clothes shopping today. I seem to be stuck on the cusp of 14 and 16, got some things in each size which is a bit depressing, was hoping I was a 'proper' size 14 by now.

Going to have a flexi day on Thursday which won't help, local posh restuarant has started opening at tea time for families so we've booked ourselves in for a treat after dd1's sports day. Looking forward to it though.

Hi - sorry not been around the past few days, DS is due in hospital for 2 weeks tommorrow and i have been getting things in order. Just routine I.V's nothing serious.

I am just making Gummy Sweets for the kids - its just an excuse to use my MagiMix really.

Not doing to badly, haven't been 100% sticking to it this past few days, i had a very small CremeBrulee day before yesterday, i won't be at wiegh in tommorrow so i will wiegh myself at home. Im hoping to maintain but wouldn't be suprised at a tiny gain

Hi - may I join in? I haven't read through the thread so I don't know if there are many familiar faces (I have been on a couple of SW threads before)

I had lost 5lb, then had 2 weeks stuck. Have just had a stressful week (back from hols/DH been in hospital and had lots of stress with his job etc) so am expecting a gain tomorrow

Am going to a wedding in September and would like to be a bit slimmer (small goals! Ultimate goal is approx 5 stone)

I will try to read some more of the thread over the next couple of days

Can I just take a moment to boast please? I went swimming at 6.30am this morning, had a swim then went in the spa for a bit, feeling v smug now

How do you make Gummi sweets Tits? I suspect it involves gelatine and is a bit complicated.

Ria - I do recognise your name, not sure if it's from the SW threads or maybe elsewhere on mn.

Hi all and welcome newbies

I have a big goal too Ria s don't be so

I have fallen off the wagon and need to get back on again TODAY. (But the dominos and othe stuff was so lovely.... Ahem )

Anyway, going camping tomorrow so need to be good and take stuff with me...any ideas?

camping food that I always take -

green - couscous, pasta n sauce, oat so simple sachets

RED - sausage bacon & eggs for red days. Steak and salmon for on the BBQ. I then buy a few sald bits while trying not to succumb to camping garlic bread. (take a garlic baguette, break into the individual slices and fry in a pan in the garlic butter )

Have been lurking on here for a while. Am stil at target one year on and finding that if I put a couple of pounds on one week I can get it straight off the next by going back to SW basics. I do have to go to group at least once every 2 weeks otherwise I do slip and the weight creeps on.

salad no sald

Hi - does anyone have the online password for this week please? Forgot to check it when I went to weigh-in. Many thanks.

I hadn't thought of cous cous - thanks nikki

I got my syn free morrison sausages already, so will get some bacon and eggs. And plenty of fruit and salad!

I'm a bit down atm (money problems) so am trying not to eat junk and to spend wisely on healthy food!

which M'sons sausages are syn free? I don't eat red very often, but it's nice to have a f ry-up!

I have just had a HUGE helping of veggie jambalaya. It was delish, one of the nicest ever SW recipes I've cooked (though I used quorn sausages instead of pieces as that's all I had in)

amazingly (despite nearly eating my body-weight in Thai sweet chilli sensations and houmous and pitta this week) I have lost a pound so

thanks for the welcome

I recognise your name too Prof, I usually stick to PN and big slim, but sometimes have a bit of a "posting splurge"! was it couch potato to 5k? I failed

The low fat ones - they are a bit dry but can't go wrong with bacon and ketchup in a sandwich

Anyone know the password? Or can anyone tell me how many syns in a meringue please?

I can't remember where it's from Ria, I did peep into Couch Potato at one point but not sure if I posted. I did complete a Race for Life but twisted my ankle in the process and haven't done any running for a month or so now.

I love the Morrisons sausages, nice with a runny egg or ketchup.

Sorry, forgot MissGB, merangue nests are 3 syns, I had one yesterday with Total yoghurt, strawberries and cherries. Yummy.

Hello all

Just checking in to say I'm back on it - big time.

Super focused and really want to shift this weight now.

Having a week of red days and for someone who doesn't usually do red days, I'm quite enjoying them.

Must get new mag too.

Hope this focused feeling with stay

does anyone have a nice coleslaw recipe that is as good as "proper" coleslaw? Having friends over on Friday and DH fancies a BBQ

TIA

Hi all.

I am really run down today, im tired, spotty, my hair is greasey and i feel like crap.

I spent the night in the hospital with DS for some routine meds and got no slepp becuase of the bastard sat's montior and the iv pump beeping constantly.

I have been grazing today, nothing to bad except a bit of butter on my toast.

I am having the night off for a takeaway, i am not cooking, i know the sensible thing would be to sadle back up and eat a healthy Salad but its not going to happen untill i have slept and bathed and relaxed.

I know my boys wont go to bed nicely tonight as the last several days they have been a nightmare getting to bed.

I could cry - i feel so low.

But hey hum back on it tommorrow.

Tits - feck it, sometimes Sw just doesn't matter Enjoy your take away, crack open a bottle of something chilled and white too. Plenty of time to get back in the saddle, for now just be kind to yourself.

Hope your ds is ok too, how is he?
