Slimming World Syners!!

[cranberry987]

Been a bit of a wobbly day - coming off my anti-depressants as theyre not rly good to take during pregnancy, was at 45mg, came down slowly, and ive been at 15mg all week. Starting to feel it tbh, quite weepy and totally irrational. Going to go another week then come off them, then its onto the next one to come off.

Food wise has been ok. Trying my first EE day. Had bowyers sausages for lunch with toast beans and egg. Strawberries and yogurts. And i got steak and chips for dinner.

Did two classes at the gym this morning, one was horrific weightlifting to techno type thing, the next was fitness pilates which was much better. Have two booked in tmw as well - hopefully will have recovered enough by then.

I have cheese on toast quite often, is ok as long as you have the small loaf and can use that ready sliced low fat cheddar - two slices is 1 HEX A. Lucozade tho, hm. Maybe try drinking lucozade light i think its called. Its got all the nutrients to perk you up, but not the sugar. They do it in a red fruity flavor and a green one - maybe lemon/lime.

Catkin, keep it up. Back on the horse and put last night behind you. Thin feels better than cake tastes!

Oh and I read that if you ate no syns at all you'd only eat around 2100 less calories and it takes 3500 to lose a lb. But having no treats, you're more likely to pig out. So I'd eat the syns AQ and maybe up your fruit/veg intake to get the 2lbs.

Yeah will probs do that cranberry. I guess iv managed to lose 23lb by following ee and having daily treats and the odd splurge so best not change my plan too much ;-)

Hope u feel ok when u come off the pills. It must be hard to do x

How r u finding the plan? i notice u have not been on it long and hope its all clicking with u. Took me a few wks to get into it but i love it now xxx

 

[cranberry987]

im fine with green days - did it a few yrs ago so pretty much all sorted there, EE im getting used to. I'm a bit sceptical about it really, will change when I see results I suppose. Ive been snacking on the left over sausages from lunch all day which were lovely and free, I was the same last week tho when I ate pasta all week - some days over 2k calories and i still lost loads of weight.

 

[africaqueen]

Yeah i did the red and green days yrs ago and was convinced that EE would not work but iv lost 23LB since april and was off plan for 5wks during that time when i lost my baby and had surgery etc, so pretty pleased with the results just love being able to have potato an rice with my meat cos makes for nice filling meals xxx

Not done to bad today ive just eaten Chicken & Rosemary Meatloaf with cauliflower cheese, was really nice strange but nice. Wish I could stop picking though im sabotaging my weight loss.

Did a Davina workout today and really worked hard, going to try get on the bike later while watching TV I need to see some results for my hard work.

Good luck girls and well done on this weeks losses

very true cranberry- im doing green days think i am going o try extra easy- am so worried i will put on though?? xx

 

[cranberry987]

well i think they wouldnt have made ee an option if they thought people would put on. ive ate a LOAD today on ee and its only been 1600 cals. even just looking at whats going in vs whats going out, thats means losing weight. when you add all the science stuff to it itll be more effective.

give it a go, after all, i bet 90% of sw'ers do ee. make sure to record what you eat so your consultant can advise if needed.

 

[catkin1508]

yeah true, ive been really good today so feeling really good- think i might give it a go as of tommorow. As i do like my roast dinners!! Trying to get some inspiration from the magazine...

 

[4magpies]

Ive had a weekend of eating rubbish.

Back on it tomorrow though... have to treat ourselfs sometimes I guess.

Just want a lb this week... as I didnt lose last week... dont really want to STS.

good luck barbles,
AQ - sorry you're feeling so rubbish, i hope you can get back on plan - just think about IVF
Elli - congrats on your 1lb, glad you're doing ok.
Naya - wow 4lbs!!! that's alot! hehe . Hope you get back on plan and lose your 4lbs - i'll message you with the password if you like!!
i'm going off to a meeting soon, then have diet club at 6.30, looking forward to it!!

 

[truly_blessed]

AQ - I just want to say I think you are amazing with everything you have gone through. You had your first ectopic whilst I was going through my MMC and I remember reading your story then but it was a bt too raw and close to home for me to comment at the time.

Anyway back to the thread, I lost 1lb last Wed which I was quite surprised at but have been quite bad over the weekend with fish and chips, a big piece of cake, wine, nuts, ice creams...... so today it's been 1 banana, 2 alpen light bars (HEX), pasta, tuna, beetroot salad and low fat coleslaw then a big bowl of melon, strawberries and pineapple in an attempt to kick the SS food into gear. Probably be a jacket potato for tea with beans and low fat catherdral city from my other HEX.

I find if I drink too much water on the weigh in day, I actually put on weight so I try to kerb it on the day I get weighed and just drink more on the other days.

 

[baby-diva]

i find that i gain weight when i drink alot of water on the weigh in day too - so i try to not drink too much - i'm getting nervous about weigh in today tho!!!
