Well done!
I have got no chance of that 2lb I need this week.
So far this weekend I have drank my body weight in wine, had McDonald's and a takeaway and lots of chocolate.
But it's ok because I had a frozen slimming world meal between all that somewhere lol!

^^LOVE that it sounds like me xxx

I maintained yesterday but I know that was a fluke cause I weighed myself this morning and I have lost 2lbs. I'm ok with that cause I am quite comfy where I am and see what I lose now as a bonus.
I've been going to the gym every day but just to walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes. I have an appointment with a trainer today who will help me to set up a programme and assess my health and such things. I lost weight slowly but still, I could wish my skin was a little more toned and firm. Hoping exercise will help with that. Of course the overstretched skin on my belly from my twin pregnancy is a lost cause but a price I have gladly paid for them

1.5lbs lost this week again for me. I don't know how - honestly I had such a bad week but I've eaten SO much salad the last 2 days and drank a lot of water so that's probably pulled it back for me.

Just 0.5lb to go now til I can get my 1 stone award, surely that's going to be next week!? I hope so! X

 

[topsy]

Sure you will hun xxxxx

 

[AngelUK]

oh well done and yes I am sure you can do it! Salad does make a difference but it is a little sad to eat. When I want to retrieve some calories I put half a kilo of frozen broccoli in a bowl with a knorr veggie stock cube and 2 tbsp of water and bung it in the microwave for 15 minutes. Much more flavoursome than when cooked and more filling than salad but still low in calories. Had that today for lunch with a bit of lean ham, a few baby potatoes and a spoonful of low fat cottage cheese. Odd, but very satisfying to me!

Hi ladies, hope you don't mind me jumping in.

I cooked a gorgeous scrummy SW pasta dish that required me to buy low fat fromage frais. The recipe only needed 150g, but the smallest size tub I could gets my hands on was 500g! Any ideas on what I can do with 350g of fromage frais?!

Thank you x

 

[AngelUK]

Have it with fresh or frozen (thawed) raspberries a bit of Splenda powder, a tiny bit of vanilla essence and if you can spare the syns, with a few crushed mini meringues!
Or you could make SW ice cream with it.
Or you could make creamy mushroom and tomato pasta.

Fromage frais is incredibly versatile and can be used in sooo many ways! I love it!

Can I join?. I've been on slimming world for 4 weeks now and already loosing motivation

I feel like I'm eating the same thing and I get totally stuck for breakfast and lunch I love sandwiches but can't have the bread after my HEB. I know it's my lack of motivation and planning making me go off plan.

My first week I lost 6lbs
2nd I lost 5lbs
3rd I maintained
4th I put on 3lbs

I'm kind of embarrassed and nervous about going back to group on Monday in case I've put on again.

 

[topsy]

Have you looked on the SW website hun there are loads of meal ideas. I like SW chips and katsu curry too and the lemon mousse

But I have lost my motivation and am only getting back on it, but I have lost 54lbs since mid Nov so it works.. If I stick to it!lol! xxxx
