Great job to both Mrs Tickle and TryRocking!

AFM - I'm seeing the midwife on Tuesday and in a way am expecting a bit of a butt whipping as far as my weight goes - have eaten so much chocolate this weekend I'm expecting to have picked up so much weight!
Oh well, will just see what she says.

hi girls! can I join??

I signed up too WW online last night so am yet too really get in the swing of it!

my first aim is too lose 30.5lb which would take me just into healthy BMI range, then I'll decide from there

WW calculated my day PP allowance as 26 but then when I put in I was breastfeeding it bumped it too 40, thats a hugeeeeee jump and seems so many points that I don't know how I'll ever lose weight eating that much!

I am sure I will be picking your brains alot over the next few weeks while I get into the swing of things

 

[skweek35]

Welcome buttonnose.
Of course you may join us! Any questions, please feel free to ask away!
Yes breastfeeding does use a lot of calories. I was on 26 PP just before I got my BFP. I'm sure you will loose the weight in no time!

I will add you to the front page.

Hi girls, I attended the first meeting in ages this morning to be told I'm a gold member (I got to 1.5lbs above my target and couldn't go any more due to my timetable so they put me at gold). I haven't been since January and have only put on 3.5lbs so I'm really pleased.

BUT I've just been on my trusty app which I very heavily rely on, and it's not working? Nor is the online planner. Has anyone found this?

I need to lose 7lbs minimum before June when we go on holiday and I'm gutted if I can't access the WW app

xemem

what app are you using? and what platfrom android apple computer?

So im pms'ng bad and have been for a few weeks af is here and im not liking it
im so hungry and my boobs still hurt - not sure what that will mean for my wi in tomorrow

me and oh sat down last night to discuss our eating weve been doing ww for 18weeks and arent as good at tracking and eating as we were. So we have slowed down. We need to do it together so were back to being 100%
it is hard when were not both on board with the eating or activity,

 

[Try Rocking]

Hi Buttonnose! I use to just go to the meetings and use the little planner things they handed out (this was like 9 years ago lol) and since rejoining in December I find the online version so nice!
I love that you can put your own recipes in to figure out points and make foods/recipes favorites so they pop up quickly.
Feel free to ask any questions, I'm sure one of us knows the answer!

Hi Xemmax! I honestly have no idea if my app is working or not, my phone is about to be replaced by a new one because it won't turn on anymore. :\
Did you try redownloading it to see if that fixes it?
Congratulations on being a gold member by the way!

 

[Try Rocking]

pdmcd I hope you have a good WI tomorrow! One thing I've started doing is just making a crapload of veggies when I cook so there's whatever meat I've made and then a crapload of veggies on the plate. I found that's been helping me a lot because it fills me up and I don't keep going back for bad stuff.

Either way, I hope you figure out something to get back on track

Hi girls can i join
i split with FOB last month so need to get myself looking and feeling better. got ALOT of weight to lose. started 3 weeks ago now.
first week, lost 6 lbs
second week, lost 2 1bs
and today i went to get weighed and another 3 1bs off

so 11 1bs in 3 weeks, 3 1bs off first stone and 2 1b off my 5% goal

 

[skweek35]

Hey ladies. Hope you have all had a good day!

A big and warm welcome to Xemmax!
Well done on getting your gold membership. Unfortunately I cant help with the app and online planner - as I'm preggers. The only advice I can give is to call their call centre and ask them to help.
Will add you to the front page.

It always helps when you have a friend supporting/trying to loose weight with you. But equally as you said it gets difficult when the other person goes off the rails a bit. FXed that conversation re-ignites the weight loss.

How is everyone elses weight losses going? Any news for updating the front page.

 

[Try Rocking]

Hi Dannie! Great job on the loss so far!

 

[skweek35]

Welcome Dannie!!! So sorry to hear your split! but as you said - time to focus on you now!!

A really great start to you weight loss! FXed you shed those 3lbs this next week!
Will add you to the front page.

 

[SmileyShazza]

Welcome SmileyShazza - for dieting on your own, a 34 lbs is a great start!!! Will add you to the front page. Would you like me to put in the 34lbs loss or start from 0?

If you start me from 0 that would be great please

My first week wasn't that great. Wednesday we stayed with friends and they made dinner for us. I was at a wedding on Thursday so ate (and drank) far too much as we stayed in a hotel overnight we had breakfast out on Friday and when we got home we took my parents out for dinner to say thanks for looking after our little one. Plus then I had my egg for Easter.

Looking back maybe last week wasn't the best week to start

The only good thing is that because my meeting is on a Monday there wasn't one this week as it was Bank Holiday so I have till next Monday to try and catch up a bit. Being super good this week - had a sneaky weigh in and it looks as if I have lost 2lbs despite all the stuff going on last week. I'm hoping if I can keep on the straight and narrow I might be able to increase that a bit before Mondays weigh in

Hope everyone else is doing well.

 

[xemmax]

Thanks for the replies girls. I use the iPhone app for everything but from what I've managed to read online, it's only available to paying members. I just assumed that gold members would get access to this too as we're still supposed to track

I'm debating subscribing online for 3 months as I really do need the app to keep me focused. So annoying!

 

[skweek35]

Smileyshazza - so no problem. What a starting week you had! Will be really good if you have lost 2lbs in the 1st week! Keep tracking - essential key in this diet.

Xemmax - oh my can't believe its not automatically part of gold membership! That is something that was key to me loosing 3st before falling preggers! Don't think I would have lost that much if I didn't have those tools!

Hope everyone else is doing well.

AFM - I saw the midwife yesterday and she was shocked to hear I had lost so much! she just adviced me to continue eating healthily. Really boosted me!

 

[buttonnose82]

emma if you pay for 3 months do it via quidco then you will get £15 cach back

 

[skweek35]

Thats a good one to know! Is that a special offer? or a regular to quidco?

 

[SmileyShazza]

If you do it through TopCashback you get £33 That offer is only for the next 4 days though.

I must admit I'm tempted to do that and forgo the meetings!!!!

 

[HannahGraceee]

Finally got back on track after Easter weekend

What's everyone having for dinner?? xxx

 

[skweek35]

I really dont know - hold on - grapes!!
