Well done for the loss GA! Sounds like u had a fab time at the meal and the drinks sound yummy! i fell off the wagon again today... had mr whippy ice cream with my dad at the beach and then we had a bbq and i was good with low syn sausage and pork chop and salad but then i had 2 glasses rose... aaah. I have been shopping an bought some low fat stuff tho so made a chicken salad for work tomorrow and im taking fruit.
Bought myself a lovely wicker basket full of fruit with a ribbon round it for just £3! its got a pineapple, mango, apples, oranges, kiwis and grapes in it bargain!
I am going to write my menu for tomorrow in a min and stick to it!
I am finding plan very hard to stick to as im stressed and sad over my mum being so ill and worried about my dads test results but i HAVE to lose this 10lb to be able to continue for IVF. Nothing is more important but my wilpower is lacking so much!
HELP! xxxx

Can I join you? I could do with a kick up the bum and a shove in the right direction. I started slimming world nearly 3 weeks ago. Lost 5b the 1st week and gained 1lb the 2nd even though I stuck to it both weeks. Ive stuck to it this week also but according to my scales at home im still the same! Arghhhh where am I going wrong???? Im doing extra easy, the first 2 weeks I had my syn allowance each day only using a few syns here and there flexibly. This week ive stretched the syns to the death. Granted its been easter but ive been honest with my syns! Argghhhhh. Weigh in is Wednesday but im not hopeful.

AQ what about making some stuff in bulk and freezing it, would that help make it a bit easier to stick too?

Ke29 Make sure your getting your Health extras and your 1/3 superfree foods. Have a look at your food diary to see if you have been doing that

This might just be a very bad week for me I think, I ahve afternoon tea tomorrow, but the tea pot is filled with cocktails instead of tea (made with champagne and strawberry jam) and then there's the cakes....oh dear, i'll be doing well not to gain this week i think.

Will try to stick to plan tomorrow other than the tea.

i have been so bad this week!! i knew i wasnt going to stick to it over easter but this is stupid!!

Hi All

I'm re-joining SW tomorrow

Last time I went was before my wedding in 2009 when I got down to 9st. I was 10st pre pregnancy and now about 11.7 post so I've decided to get my bigger butt down there and have a good go at it.

One thing i've always struggled with is planning meals in advance. Hubby works on a 2 week rotation and so one week its nights and one week of earlies. I really want to get a 2 week budget meal plan sorted but I keep putting it off for some strange reason.

Does anyone have a week/2 week SW plan they wouldn't mind sharing or have some cheap meal ideas for me???

I have been terrible, Dont even wanna weigh my Self... Back on plan from today, done a massive walk, Im not going to weigh for 2 weeks tho as the witch is in town.

Lunch- Chicken salad and a apple.

Tea- Cod with new potatoes, salad and 2 corn on the cob. Yogurt.

I will have fruit for supper and crab sticks. I am taking this one day at a time now cos i am under so much stress if i push myself i end up rebelling... kwim?

Hope everyone else is ok? Becs, ER, Jac, kate and all the "oldies" how are we doin?? xxx

 

[Pink Flowers]

i had spag bol for dinner, working evenings is horrid because i dont get to eat till late.

 

[Reedy]

well what can I say about the Easter Break??? I have eaten shed loads & trust me that is not an exaggeration
Plus I havent been to Zumba this week because DH was on night s last night & I had no one to watch Finley & the one I go to on a wednesday is shut because of the Easter Hols
I have done some walking but not enough to justify what I've eaten x
I've had burgers, bread, sausages, cupcakes, chocolate, you name it I'v eaten it x
I am half back on it today, had 28g museli for breakfast, then lunch is an apple, grapes a FF yoghurt & spaghetti hoops & then dinner tonight is DH's homemade Spag Bol
but at 3pm today I'm going for afternoon tea for my mums birthday so, sandwiches/cakes/tea/scones/jam & clotted cream
Think I'll scrap WI tomorrow & just work extra hard for next weeks WI x

Well done to those that lost x Looks like we all sucombed (sp) to the chocolatey treats that Easter brings x

Welcome Lucylu & KE29! (and anyone else I might have missed v sorry!).

I'm good thanks Sarah! Just been rather busy (and very naughty) - but I'm doing well so far this week! I bought a countdown so I got my free recipe cards and I'm all excited for doing a Slimming World buffet for the baby's party on Saturday (even though I'm the only one I know still doing it ). Put on half a pound this week though Couldn't resist the chocolate, haha.

Hope everyone is doing well!

[pip holder]

Hi lovelies - can I slink back in?

Restarted last monday and lost 9.5lbs in 1st week

Going to trawl back through and see what I've missed, won't be on as much with 2 midgets around now

Nice to see some of the old faces, hiya AQ and congrats to the lovely Shazza

ER, I do SW online I really didn't fancy a group and it would've disrupted one evening a week totally beyond repair as far as dinner goes! I like it, I still get all the info from the website, and any 'group support' I need I get here

I just had a sneaky weigh-in and I only have 4oz to lose to get to one stone gone! Official weigh-in is tomorrow!

A countdown is where you get so many weeks in advance. I got 12 - so I'm commited now anyway! Whether I like it or not

Just busy making the buffet in advance now, making syn free burgers, potato salad, scotch eggs, fruit salad, jellies.. was gonna have a crack at the syn free ice cream but don't think I have the patience!

 

[Kate&Lucas]

helppppppppppp
