I think its because ive not had any alcohol as i dont drink. Some women at group gained upto 8lbs but they have all said they were drinking. All my calories are from food.
Im having a bash on sp this week. Todays food......
Breakfast - 2 aldi light benefit, apple and satsuma (heb1)
Lunch - ham on 2 slices wholemeal with onion chutney and flora light. 2 plums, satsuma, yogurt for 3.5 syns. Bread heb2.
We can have yogurts as long they have syn value
double and triple checked with sw consultant
Tea - cottage pie (sp recipe from sw site) brocolli and carrots.
Snacked on an apple and another plum and drank a ton of water.
Syns.... Chutney 1, 2 splash milk 1, flora light 1, yogurt 3.5 = 6.5 syns
My hea will be cheese and the rest of my syns on 1 syn water biscuits for supper and a cup of tea with milk. Sorted.
Hope we're all doing good! Xxxx

Definitely a silver lining to any illness, so well done 
Glad you are better though!
I put on 1lbs last Monday and hoping to lose it again by Monday. Tired of this yoyoing though. I am so close to target now that it is hard to not complacent I guess.

Hey ladies, I'm thinking of joining slimming world too and I have a few questions that I'm hoping you ladies might be able to help with?
-is it easy to stick to if you are vegetarian?
-is it easy to do quick meals with? I have a 13 week old baby and I'm going back to work soon
-would it be okay for someone who has no weight to lose? My partner is an okay weight and I don't want to be cooking two meals!
-would it be healthy enough to give my wee one the same foods when she starts weaning? I'm guessing it would be though?
I had a bmi of 25 when I fell pregnant (my heaviest ever) and I put on 25lb when pregnant which was perfect. I got down to my pre pregnancy weight after a few weeks but I weighed myself the other day in Boots and I was horrified to realise I have put on 11lb since having her, and my bmi is now 26.9! I'm looking to lose around 2st to get back to my happy weight - I'm short so 2st looks a lot on me!

I've completely given up with slimming world!, it's almost impossible when you don't have the support at home / a skinny husband who says be prefers me with a little 'meat on the bone'

I am still here. Lost 2 1/2 last Monday and really chuffed! Walking my butt off too and love my fitbit. I am hoping to continue losing now as I am so close to my target! Next weigh in is Monday.
It happens Topsy, don't get too upset, it's just life. Just restart and refocus FX for this week!

FX for this week!Hi im back! Im 1.5lbs away from my stone award which i hope to get next thursday fx!
The 3lbs i lost....i lost another half then gained 1.5lbs but the consultant said i lost the 3lbs through not eating due to illness so it may have been just water i lost. Makes sense.
My last wi was last thursday and i stuck to ee to the letter, even whilst dh was eating chocolate, crisps and sausage rolls etc. I wrote it all down on a sw diary sheet and i ate so much i had to write small to fit it all on. I snacked purely on speed fruits and ensured each plate was 1/3 speed. I used 96/105 syns in the week and I lost 2.5lbs!
With regards to hubby being unsuportive that used to really piss me off with my dh but now i just ignore him when hes chomping on something. Im usually too full from speed foods to even want to eat anything else. Leave him to it, do what you want to do. Sounds selfish but we need to be sometimes.

Me and dh have been painting for most of the day so ive not snacked much in between meals. Just havent had time as wanted the painting done asap. He went out to get us subway and got me a chicken teryiaki salad bowl with sweet onion sauce for just 1.5 syns. But as ever with subway i doubled the syns value to 3 just to make sure.
The new jam roly poly hifi lights are sooo good! The consultant said to break them into chunks and microwave for around 30secs and then pour over a free vanilla yogurt. Omg its a fantastic dessert. Dh had a taste so i had to make one for him too.
With HXB could you also do say 1 slice of bread for toast in the morning and then a hifi light as a snack later in the day? I did that yesterday. Certain i seen it done in either an sw magazine or in my welcome pack.
