Hi Lozzy welcome xx

 

[ZoMo]

Hey ladies!

May I please join this thread? I am no stranger to SW having done it 3 times before (over many years) and I know it works well for me ... when I stick to it!

I need to lose a lot of weight after pregnancy and cant afford the classes / online on SMP so need some buddies with up to date info, stories and ideas to get me started and to keep me going!

HUGE Congrats to Lisa on having twins! OMG x

WELL DONE Nicky on loss. You have done so well getting back on track x

Hi to everyone else ans good luck for WI's this wk x

AFM- I have actually been good and had WI this morning an iv lost 5lbs! yaaaay. Sooo glad to be under the 16 stone mark an its the boost i need to keep going now xxx

 

[Lisa84]

Thank you hun and congratulations on your 5lb loss thats fab!! xxx

 

[babydevil1989]

hello everybody!!

well done AQ!!

i snack on meats or fruit or boiled eggs.

well iv put on 3lbs this week due to a monster of an AF!! h well just have to work a bit harder this week

 

[africaqueen]

Thanks hun. Its a step in the right direction
We have applied for additional funding for a 3rd ivf cycle due to our circs so praying il be joining u with some BFP news asap when are u due? xxx

 

[africaqueen]

BabyD- You will lose that 3lbs. I get like that during AF too as always so bloody awful
Good luck for this wk xxx

 

[Lisa84]

I have everything crossed you get the funding hun. We never had to go through any application for funding process but i have heard other ladies have had too as well. Its mad the differences between the different PCT.

I would be due 28th Jan for a singleton but they prob wont let me go past 37 weeks.

BabyD - I'm sure that 3lbs will be mostly water weight and willl come off just as easily next week xxx

 

[africaqueen]

Lisa- No hun we have had the 2 NHS cycles of IVF, both failed and we are applying for funding for a 3rd cycle hence why we have to apply. We never had to for the 2 cycles we have had but our PCT only allows 2 cycles but due to our extreme circs we are asking for additional funding an i pray they allow it. Awww looks like xmas/new year babies for you then. What a wonderful way to be entering into 2013 xxx

 

[Lisa84]

o nowi understand. I hope they give you the 3rd cycle xxx

 

[africaqueen]

Thanks Lisa. Me too

So what has everyone got planned for their tea today?

Im thinking of a jacket potato with low fat laughing cow triangles and a gammon steak with cabbage xxx

 

[babydevil1989]

lisa wow twins congratulations!!

we are also TTC (which is probably why i have put on 3lbs due to comfort eating ) so hopefully be joining you soon too!!

are you carrying on with slimming world? x

 

[babydevil1989]

we have stew been in the slow cooker all day and smells yummmmmy!! x

 

[Lisa84]

Yes i am carrying on SW. Apparently the royal college of midwives recognises the plan as more of a healthy eating lifestyle rather than a diet so are ok with it. I know that trying to maintain my weight will be difficult with having twins but i would rather try and keep the gain to a minmum. Plus the way i see it is what i eat my babies eat so if i can try and maintain a healthy diet rather than using it as an excuse to binge that has to be a good thing xxx
