Have tried Weightwatchers and have decided it is not for me - I am too hungry, then I eat 'rubbish' and feel awful.
Have just downloaded Slimmers World info. including a 7 day trial - going to give it a go.
I have a couple of questions can I PM anyone?
Thanks Irene.
Well, I lost another 1½lbs this week - thats 8lbs altogether in 3 weeks. I am feeling very pleased with myself to say the least . Does seem to be slowing down a bit so will start with the exercise kick now. See if I can reach my goal of 1 stone before my sister's wedding in April and 3 stones for my holiday in September.
to everyone.

im having the same problem sarah its slowing down grr so need to do exercise grrr lol !!! but well done on losing 8 lbs , ive lost 16 in 6 wks and cant tell yet and no one has noticed which doesnt help lol, think once ive lost 2-3 stone it will be more noticable
You are both doing really well, keep it up am hoping for an average 2lb loss each week, but have not managed that on other diets and that is why I am looking at Slimming World. Nearly at the end of my 2nd day and I am not hungry. Hoping to lose just over 2 stone by beginning of August
Sarah I will PM you as I am not going to the classes but have downloaded from their website and I need info on Syns? Like what is a teapoon of low fat spread, glass of wine etc? Have been toldyou can have 5 - 15 syns per day???
Thanks Irene
Hi, Had my weigh in last night Scottish Slimmers lost a pound, thats six now, but it feels like more as my clothes are getting sooo roomy. Keep up the good work everyone.
Ellie, people will start to notice soon, and from past experience they will think you've lost weight quickly seeing as they've only just noticed!

Well done you. If I can lose that amount in 6 weeks I would be soooooo pleased. Brilliant. As far as other people noticing, they will and the compliments will soon be flooding in.
Irene wrote:Info on Syns? Like what is a teapoon of low fat spread, glass of wine etc?
A teaspoon of low fat spread i.e. flora light is 1 syn. Wine is quite high but varies on what kind you prefer. Dry white wine goes from a small glass (125ml) which is 4 syns to a large glass (175ml) which is 6. As I said, it does vary dependent on which wine you prefer.
I am allowed up to 15 syns a day. I dont use these though. Just depends on what I am eating that day.
If you get on with the week's trial, you may benefit from joining a local slimming world class. You get a brilliant booklet which gives you the syn breakdown and full access to the website. Good luck and PM me with any questions.

2lbs this week so well peased - thats 22lbs since new year and over half way
Feeling very smug ( so will probably have a disasterous weekend )

Well nearly at the end of day 3 and my appetite is well satisfied. Know I shouldn't have but I weighed myself today, 3lbs less than when I started - I know most of it will be water but it is what I need to keep focused - I am one of those people that need to 'see' the weight come off
Will see how I am after 1 week and consider joing a class however there are a few people from work interested???? Also I should have the 'shopping at Asda' book early next week.
Sorry another question 5 - 15 syns per day is that for evryone or does it depend on your start weight etc?
Have a niceweekend.
Irene
PS Thanks for you info.
PPS Well done Lally
thanks sian x x
and well done to you Irene!
For Mothers day I have asked for the Vickie Entwistle DVD (Janice from Coronation St). Hope I get it Read excellent reviews on it - will let you know all about it
Irene
Lallygirl - what plan are you following?
Well I've just read all the recent posts and have to say I'm regretting the cheese and onion pasty and banoffee pie I had for lunch!!!! Ha Ha!! I've really lost all my willpower and have only lost 8lbs in the last month but now that I've read some encouraging posts I'm off to Tescos to stock up on fruit and healthy stuff!!
Irene I have followed most in my time!
This time its a maximum of 50 g of fat and 1400 cals a day which seems to be working slow and steady. Have had success with SW and WW in the past but always put it on again!
Bec - what are you like girl
Lally
thanks for all the encouragement it really motivates you,ive got 3 course meal tomorrow ill have to pick from the menu the least naughty lol, think im in for a bad week this week with thing and another grrr !!!!!
Hope you are all having a nice weekend and to all us that our mum's a happy mothers day to us all and to all our mum's as well.
I can't believe that I have had a weekend where I have not been 'nibbling' mind you I was so busy yesterday as my washer has broken so I spent the day at my mum's doing a weeks load of washing and today we have been at my hubbys family saying our goodbyes as my siter in law and her husband are off to live in Canada very soon. Still I don't feel hungry. I suppose if I had gone out for a meal I would have been a piggy Got my exercise DVD that I asked for so here's hoping................
Speak soon.
Irene
