I got weighed tuesday and lost a pound. was a little disappointed though, but came on tue night so that maybe why it was only a pound. 2 pound off my first stone and 1 pound off my 5% xx

Hi everyone,

Can I join in? After having 2 babies in 2 years I have a lot to lose! My first target is to lose 4 1/2 stone so we can think about trying to baby no 3. I had two complicated pregnancies one with GD and the other pre-eclampsia so really want to get my BMI down to 30 before thinking of trying again. I've been going back and forth on whether to do Slimming World or Weight Watchers but feel WW will probably fit in more with our lifestyle. I will have to follow it online as there are no meetings that suit. Going to go tomorrow for a big healthy shopping and get started in the morning

Although I do go to meetings I find the online very helpful! I only go to the meetings for weigh and to buy some of the yummy bars but then it is just down the road from me good luck. There are some lovely recepies Online

Hi All,

So...before I had my LO, I had lost 50lbs on weight watchers!(which I think HELPED me to get my LO on the 1st place!) But now, 4 months later after LO, I still have 20lbs on that are feeling impossible to lose!

I had tried weight watchers a few weeks after I had him, but I was finding myself stressing out and not able to stay focused on it...so I just decided I was going to maintain the weight I was at, and try again in a while(which I did maintain, so yay on that!) and now, I am back to doing weight watchers because I am feeling ready, but I am getting so frustrated because in the past, when I would start, I would drop weight SO fast...and now, it feels like I can't loose anything, and I am sticking to my points and eating really well I'm just not sure what else to do!

Hi,
I'm thinking about starting ww. I need to loose at least a stone, but an extra half would be amazing. I am currently around 11 stone - maybe just over. My ideal weight is still within my recommended weight.
I have never done ww before but going to be joining online.
How quickly should you expect to see weight coming off?
Thanks,
Me xx

 

[CLH_X3]

i do ww.... im currently on my 16th week doing it .. so far iv lost 31lbs ...

just wanted to say well done to everyone on there losses

 

[Try Rocking]

Great job everyone!

I was really coming in to just read so I can stay caught up but CLH your daughter was born on my birthday! And such a beautiful name, I love it!

 

[danniemum2be]

really hoping i lose 2 lb this week so that brings me to my first stone and for another reason.

me and my auntie are doing it together and have each brought a £1 scratch card every weigh in, 1st to reach a stone gets the scratch cards. so if i lose 2 1b this week think i get about 12 scratch cards

 

[hellypops]

Only lost 1lb this week but i got first AF since having Charlie so i guess thats not too bad
I've just started exercising again today to hopefully i'll have a good loss next week.
How's everyone else doing?

 

[hellbaby]

Hi, can i join you? Ive also had 2 babies in 2 years, my youngest is now 10 months so I reckon it's time to stop fannying about (pardon the pun!) and shift this weight. Also we're going to Oz for a month in December (hubby is Australian but I've never been) which is a great incentive! Have joined WW online today
Start weight: 11 st 7lb
Goal weight: 9 st

Hi ladies, forgot to update Thursday but I put half a pound on :/ need to get my head sorted and start losing again x

 

[skweek35]

Oh my gosh - so much for me to catch up on and really do need to update that front page!! So sorry I've been MIA - had a really busy few days.

Well done on the great weight losses this past week!
Welcome to all the new ladies!! Will add you to the front page.

Dannie - FXed you loose that 2lbs this week!

Hellypops - exercise should help with loosing weight. How long after having Charlie did you go back to WW?

Hope everyone is doing well.
Make the most of the sunshine - enjoy the good weather and zero point salads.

 

[Mexx]

On day 3 of weightwatchers now using the propoints. I've enjoyed it so far

How soon did you all see results?

I feel like i'm cheating with the weekly extras and so only used 1 so far.

Any suggestions of really yummy but low PP goodies to keep us going? I've still got a basket of easter goodies which i'm doing my best to ignore!

 

[skweek35]

Hi Mexx, Well done for sticking to the plan so far!
Those weekly extra points are there to be used if and when you need them! SO dont feel like you are cheating, cause you aren't cheating at all!!
I presume are you doing the online WW and weighing yourself at home. I would suggest weighing yourself once a week - same day, same time and roughly in the same clothes. (I used to weigh myself every morning after going to the loo. Thats how I kept myself motivated though) Also try to put the scales in the same place, on a hard floor is best. Which day did you start the plan?
Hope this helps.

Low sugar or ww jelly is 0 points. So I make loads of mini ones at the weekend have one of those a day. I feel like I'm being naughty having jelly also it's worth checking and working out supermarket own brand or value stuff for points because I've found a few things that are the same in point value but cheaper. Also £1 land have quite a bit of ww stuff. My fav thing to eat is sausage and apple skewers. I use ww sausages (1pt for 1 or 3 pts for 2) cut them into pieces and skewer them with chopped apple in between and grill. I serve with zero point veg and a bit of potato ( which I need in a meal)

Any one got any recepies they recommend? Xx

Hellypops - exercise should help with loosing weight. How long after having Charlie did you go back to WW?

I joined online when he was 4 weeks old, i know they tell you to wait until 6 weeks but my diet was so poor, i never ate a meal just grazed on crisps and biscuits and i see ww more of a healthy eating than just a diet.

 

[skweek35]

I really want to go back to WW as soon as possible after having baby. But seeing that I usually go to WI sessions with family I dont know if they will let me join before the 6 weeks?
Will just have to wait and see what I can pull out the bag

 

[Try Rocking]

I'm down 2 lbs this week bringing my total to 45.4 lbs lost now! I'm so close to hitting 50! I can't wait!

Tardiz when you say jelly do you mean jam or marmalade stuff
Or do you mean jello/ gelatine stuff - just curios which you mean cause I'd love a 0 pt jam

We have these poppers here we can get at the grocery store it's a 4" round popped rice kinda cake almost pita like but crispy like rice crispies - there like 4-5 for 1 pt great snack food you can put spreads on it also
