Are you joining us on Slimming World Jenny? If so, welcome :D

I put on a pound! WAHH! I have NO idea how. So I am blaming my persistent cold cause I have been good :(
Oh well, onwards and upwards, or rather downwards! ;)

How are you all ladies? Hope doing better than I! xx
 
Lasagne sounds so good! I really really miss my yummy pub lasagne we used to go for :-( but its just so bad for sw!
I lost 1lb last Thursday and got my first stone award :-)

Welcome Jenny if you are joining us!
angel, I would blame the congestion!
I'm not feeling it one bit this week! My girls have been eating My partners birthday cake all week and I keep eating the crumbs when I slice it! Everytime I tell myself I won't do it but I can't help it, its just so chocolatey and delicious! Luckily its all gone now as they just ate the last bit however tomorrow I have to make a number 4 cake for Charlies bday wednesday and I just know the same will happen for the next week with that!!
Really REALY need some willpower! If I have gained or maintained this week I'm going to be so mad that I didn't eat a whole slice lol!
 
Well...looks like I will be the lower end of target by xmas thanks to this awful awful bug I have. It's a mixture of a cough/cold and sickness :( attempted to get ready for work this morning and had dizzy spells so spending another day at home, feel bad for my other team members.

Been living off lucozade toast and bananas!
 
Sorry your feeling rubbish katerz, you just have to eat what you can keep down! No point fretting about your target, just get better soon.

Hopefully you will have cleared it by Xmas!
 
Finding it hard to stick on plan this week. Ive been on SW since the first week of january and lost 3stone 10lbs so far but the last month i have been up and downing a lot. i gained last week cos i was a bit sick and drinking lots of lemsip. This week i am dealing with two sick teething kids im exhausted and so not had energy to cook. we ate pizza hut last night :-(

And i have a xmas meal out tomorrow. Was so hoping to get my 4 stone award for xmas and i feel like all my hard work is slipping away again.
 
it isn't going to slip away hun! Just set yourself a limit now and say ok I had pizza and I have a meal out coming up but I will make healthy choices as best as I can. Then try to stay on plan for the rest of the time till Christmas. You can do it! You know you can, you have lost almost 4 stone! That is amazing! And not to sound clicheed but you are worth the effort and not gaining or only little or even losing some more is going to give you more of a boost than that pizza ever could! Best of luck!
 
Well done kit, your weight loss is fab! Its fine to have a bump in the road, just get back on it once you have done your meal out. Loads of ladies at my group are maintaining or having slight gains this week as they have Xmas meals out etc.
I however have absolutely no social life what so ever and have lost another 2lb At least there is one benefit to being a hermit I guess lol!
I was shocked tho as I are alot of cake crumbs and missed lunch 2 days in a row.
I'm having Xmas day off I think, and any damage done can be rectified after!
Everyone has bought us chocolate tins and biscuits for Xmas whilst I'm gratefull I'm also super gutted! I can only eat some on Xmas day :-( someone buy me some slippers or something please!!
 
Well done Nicki! :D I guess the crumbs weren't syn busters after all! How much have you lost over all now and are you starting to really feel the difference in clothes etc? I love that I am fitting into some of my (larger) prepreg trousers now and I am actualy going to wear nice clothes for Christmas in the first time in ages!
But like you I am going to eat what I want on Christmas day and I am SOO looking forward to the cheesecake and the macaroons, I am positively drooling lol
Also like you, I have no social life whatsoever. It is easy to stay off the big meals but golly could I murder some Christmas biscuits!

Hope you other ladies are doing ok? I am on BnB every day so if I can help with support I am here. :) xx
 
I too can't wait! I'm counting down the days just for the food! Ha ha!
I've lost 16lb in 10 weeks! I'm super happy!
I can't see any change if I look in the mirror but my linen trousers are loose and I have to tie the string part now and not just the button and today I wore a top that I had to stop wearing as I looked 7 months pregnant in it and now I don't, just a had 2 kids wobbly tummy visable. Really pleased to see change in my clothes.
I think my next goal is another 12 pounds and see how I feel then. I do wonder if I will ever be happy with how I look now?
 
That is really excellent, well done Nicki! :D I love it when trousers start to be loose like that! I now wish I had taken a photo of myself when I started but I was way too embarrassed! But I bet if I had and took one of myself now, I would see the difference. Maybe I will take one now and then compare as I lose more. :)
 
Woops forgot to update on Wednesday weigh in. Lost 1lb but think that was from being ill, BUT it means I have a bigger window to play with on xmas day :D

I don't see a difference really when I look in the mirror even though I know there is one! I think that's because I see myself everyday.

I didn't take any before pics, but my sister did a comparison pic for me which I will dig out and upload.
 
Really nice Kate :)! Would love to see a before and after piccie :)
I am not doing well and I am not sure why. I am overeating I know, but I am not eating more than usual :(
Last night OH made the steak and guiness pie from the little recipe booklet that came with the new SW magazine. We couldn't find celeriac so he put peas and carrots instead and oh my golly was it lovely!! I recommend! :)
 
Just going to sainsburys shopping, what are the best 'sw friendly' sausages to get?? I remember someone somewhere saying they did some got 1.5 syns? Can't remember if it was here or in group?

Well done Kate, would love to see your pics too!

Not 100% sure but weren't they the ones by Linda McCartney? I seem to remember something like that. I think I had them about a decade ago and think they were ok tasting back then but could not swear to it! But I might try them too! Thanks for reminding me. :)

I just googled it and found this on a SW FB page:

Linda McCartney's, Red Onion & Rosemary Sausages, 6 pack, frozen, 50g each Free
Linda McCartney's, Vegetarian Sausages, 6 pack, chilled, 50g each 1 syn
Linda McCartney's, Vegetarian Sausages, 6 pack, frozen, 50g each 2 syns
 
Weight watcher ones are 0.5 syns I believe xx

the Linda onion ones are lush and I saw someone on instagram made them into stuffing balls!
 
Ok here goes! I don't have many full body before as I avoided the camera at all costs. Also means there are barely any photos of me and lily together :(

Thank you I got some Linda red onion ones! I couldn't find any weight watchers ones, but I will have to try them!

Kate you look amazing, how do you stay on target? Do you still follow it but up your syns and then go back if you gain?
