~~> Slimming World Diet Support Thread 2011 <~~ (Part 2!)

[CertainTurton]

it most definately is as it's a healthy eating plan rather than a diet. It follows NHS guidelines in terms of nutritional balance and rate of weight loss.

As a guide we (at Slimming World) aim to help pregnant women try to maintain a healthy weight and therefore gain baby weight only.
If however your diet has been particulary poor prior to starting the plan, then it is not uncommon to lose weight as you start to eat more healthily.
We also encourage you to try and increase your activity levels in a way that suits you.

Hope that helps

Thanks that does help. I have been doing slimming world for about 4 months now and its great, ive lost 9lb so far and have 9 more to go to get to my target. I would still like to continue with it but I guess my group would find out pretty quickly once i start gaining weight. I will have a chat with my SW leader soon. Ive been on holiday for the last 2 weeks (hence relaxing and getting a bfp- i hate it when they are right!) so have been a bit naughty - got my weigh in tomorrow, urgh! Although my home scales tell me i havent put much on at all
Thanks for the reply and advice!

Hiya

Can I please join in this thread?

I joined slimming world 2 weeks ago tomorrow. I lost 1.5lbs in my first week but this week have not done so well so expect to have put on this week I had a party at the weekend and have been very close to or just over my syn allowance most days this week. I dont know why but I have been so so hungry and cant stop eating and I had a freddo frog, fudge and 3 jaffa cakes tonight . I know it sonds silly but I just couldnt stop myself and now I am annoyed.

So basically can I join you guys as well as going to group lol.

Thanks

Simone

Hi everyone , thanks for the lovely welcome. Hope u r all motivated this week. I lost 1 and a half pounds this week which is quite good cos I was away for 3 days and didn't stay on track. So I have generally been having no syns during the week and then having them all at the weekend which I know your not suppossed to do. This week i'm going to try and do it properly and allow myself some syns most days. Good luck everyone.

[mummy_a]

Only lost half a pound yesterday, I was truly gutted. Hope to loose more this week, cause I am sticking to it every day. Got 3 more weeks before a wedding and would love to have lost a dress size. (I am now inbetween 2 sizes, so want to get to the lower one) I am doing a lot of yoga and mussle exercise on the wii, wonder if that made me not loose as much. Also still doing my walking and cycling, but from next week playgroups are over, so need to find a new way of getting my exercise in.

 

[africaqueen]

21lb gone, 17lb to go! Only lost half a lb this week, but hoping to keep losing now, just waiting for AF to show to end this ridiculously long cycle I'm having, hoping that'll also end my streak of not losing any weight.

Well done to everyone who's lost

Are you still exercising chick?

I dunno what to suggest...

Just be very very strict and see what comes off?

If you find any quick fixes let me know.
