    I'm back on Slimming World Buffy ;)

    I lost 3 stone on it a year or so ago, then stupidly put most of it back on :confused:

    I lost 5 stone in 6 months the first time I did it properly in late 2004/early 2005. Then all the Cruella stuff started and I put it all back on in the same amount of time :( Plus 2 more stone :o
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Wow....5 stone in 6 months is fab !!!

    I did 3 stone in about 4 months, but then the weight loss slowed right down, and I got disheartened, came off it and put it all back on :rolleyes:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    I'm hoping with the new EE plan that the complete halt I now get at week 3 and 4 doesn't happen. I was very bored with green or red days but the new plan is excellent.........and now I have half a hundred weight of new choccy mullerlights in the fridge, I should be fine! :rotfl:

  • Thank you, still feel nervous about being on here. Spent the afternoon adding up my debts and as it stands i owe just over £25000. I want to get it all under control but have no idea where to start. Lucy x
  • Hi Lucy,
    Read the stickies at the top of this forum-they are the threads designed to give you all the information to get you on the road to beating your debt down.

    Look at starting a new thread and posting a 'Statement of Affairs' as posted on the stickie. (refferred to as a SOA) and then people can see where they can help.

    Just a sec and I'll get the links.

  • right my motivation lasted nearly an hour.

    room a mess but have found a few things I thought I'd lost for ever.

    put music on which helped a bit.

    now have to brave the shed.

    1 A choice
    1 B choice

    anything free off green or red can be served on the same plate. (ie pasta with chicken, rice with fish)

    Syns as normal, if there are different syn values given for something (ie 4 on red, 6 on green), choose the lower number.

    snacks can be anything free.
