    well, I'm quite pleased! Week 3 weigh in (the week my body usually slows down) and I've lost another 4 pounds! That's 12 pound in 3 weeks!

    It's also star week so I'm even more chuffed.

    I'm absolutely convinced that the key is eating consciously. i'm eating a much, much smaller portion at dinner time. I've done it all on EE and although it is still incredibly early days (another 138 pounds to go!) I am really hoping this time is MY time to lose the weight permanently.

    I think I need to start eating lunch away from my PC. I eat lunch (literally eating it as I type!) at home as I work part time and I definitely don't eat that consciously.

    So, next stage for me is to try to start eating some lunches away from the PC.

    I'm not even going to dare think I could do 2 pounds next week and lose a stone in my first month, but my fingers are quietly crossed.

    Hello everyone:hello:
    have been a bit busy the last few days and am rapidly trying to catch up with this thread ;)
    Have had a green day today

    B- muller
    L- 2 ryvita (heb) 5 laughing cow (hea) apple, cucumber
    Alpen light (heb2) muller
    D- stir fry, muller

    milk for tea (hea2)

    Feel like I am still losing although am due for a weigh ...think I may be slipping into some bad sw habits eg eating similar things every day etc
    jammy gal, yes we all have the same habbit of sticking to what we know and our bodies get use to it, try getting your books out or old magazines and flicking through recipes, or ordinary recipe books and see if you can adapt them to the slimming world way! your doing great well done xx

    ta :D

    I pop up my food most days, it is usually yoghurt/prunes/fruit for breakfast, then pasta n sauce,SW chips with egg or bean, HM eggfried rice or leftovers from the night before for lunch and dinner is loads of different stuff - chilli, bolognaise, cottage pie, casseroles, curry, stir fry etc etc :D

    I have to confess I decided as I'd weighed in to treat myself to a handful of chocolates and you know what? Even though they were posh hotel chocolat ones, I didn't enjoy them, they tasted 'fatty'.

    Been feeling down since WI on Tue. im not sure why, but ive just not felt like following the plan this week. I was bad during the day on Tue, Wed I ate out for lunch then had a kebab at night :eek:, today ive eaten porridge, 2 slices of bread, 3 oatcakes loads of cheese and sweet chilli sauce, about 5 chocolate ecairs, 2 gerlain sea shell chocs . im about to have a very SW salmon salad but i plan on drinking red wine. I dont think ill stop at 1 or 2 glasses the way i feel. Im heading to Dundee to see my bf so will probably have more wine. I plan on making a SW stew in my new slow cooker to take with me for lunches.
    I really dont know whats happened this week. I even bought a new pair of jeans on Monday a size 12!!. its as if im scared to get to target IYKWIM. I feel really carp now.
