[dachsundmom]

msp14; I am also an ex WW girl and trying to figure out SW! I'd love some help with this mess.

How are you getting on? I think I've got the hang of it but defo not eating enough veg... I'm too fussy!!!!
But am using fitness pal as well so trying to stay below my cals whilst following the sw guidelines... Gonna get weighed tomorrow but am tempted to have a sneaky peek today :-S

Congrats on the loss!

I am finding SW quite difficult, as it's a lot of food to eat. Since I am in the States, this program isn't very well known over here, so the support is minimal at best. Some of the food combinations are a little difficult for me to get used to; Americans don't love the baked beans as much as a Brit.

hi can i join this thread

i'm 5'8 and 12 stone 11pounds (179 pounds) i've been trying to lose weight since having baby logan at the end of june. think i've lost about a stone and a half so far but it aways goes wrong at the weekends lol
so starting again today, i've had bran flakes with raisins, tomato soup with wholemeal bread, baked potato with salad. also been for 3 1/2 miles.
i'd really like to get down to 12 stone by xmas then down to 11 stone 11 pounds to be the weight i was before baby. then keep trying to lose another stone next year to get to my overall goal. good luck everyone for this week x

Lol... We do love our beans

You don't have to eat loads... I'm using myfitnesspal at the same time to limit myself as otherwise I'd eat a ton of pasta every day... Just cos slimming world says its free doesn't mean I wanna be having loads!!! I'm finding the two with each other work quite nice.. Slimming world for the nutritional balance and lower fat intake and mfp to help me with portion control!!!
Have you tried diet coke chicken? It's free and yummy

Hi all

Nothing off for me, not even an ounce. I stuck to my diet all weekend and week and have been to the gym 4x and absolutely caned it. So needless to say I am disappointed. I need some support and motivation to carry on because I don't know how to be any better.

I have measured my waist etc and in last 2 weeks I have lost 4" (1.5" hips. 1.5 "waist, 1" arms) - so some success.

I used to lose weight so easily!!

Hi Katiez
Thats fantastic that you have lost those inches! Good going.
Dont worry about the weight - that will start to shift really soon, sounds like you are doing everything right. I lost nothing at all first week but now its beginning to move.
So keep at it x

 

[KRobbo]

Thanks, I'm actually pleased with how I feel and look but wish I could update my MFP with weight loss. I'm sticking to it, back to the gym tomorrow!

 

[2have4kids]

I'm in, would LOVE to join you ladies and shed a few unwanted jigges.

I've just started a core class and yoga this week, and after i get my car back from the shop I'm going to get a 10x gym pass. Last night I dreamed of working out and today with a sore tummy, arms and legs from my grueling core class (a good sore) I'm motivated. I'll ride the wave and try to eat well, stay away from wine (which i'm convinced will help with ttc) and if I lose weight before Christmas it'll be a fantastic thing.

My gf got preggers twice training for the iron man. I think all the extra circulation and boost in metabolism is a good thing.

I know it's a day early but I'm excited lost 2lbs I was beginning to think my scales were stuck as been same since last christmas

Hi ladies, can I join?

I've lost 20lbs in 12weeks so far on WW, but my motivation has gone in the last few weeks, so I decided to buy the 30 day shred dvd, which is going ok so far.

I still have another 20lbs to lose at least, would love to lose half a stone by christmas. I could do with some support, well done to all ur weight losses so far!

 

[sarahandalan]

[Bravemom]

So I've just weighed myself this morning and I've lost the three pound clomid bloat plus another pound so I'm basically back on track .don't think I will lose a stone for Xmas but I may lose half a stone Good luck everyone

I am really struggling. I have been trying so hard and nothing has happened, so I got disheartened and went off the rails Need to get back on it today...
