1. Cook a SW meal you have NEVER had before!
I made jambalaya last night and apapted it from a recipie I have always used.... OH didn't even notice the difference.:D

2. Do 15 mins EXTRA exercise in addition to what you normally do! - Just played n the High School musical dance game for the Wii with my DD for half an hour - Does that count?

3. Buy and eat a piece of fruit you have not had for ages! - Bought a stack of strawberries from Morrisons reduced sction.... they remind me of summer

4. Add your own personal target for the week here - I want to lose at least 2lb. I am going to weigh myself on Tuesday nights as that was the time I have been going to class

Heres mine:beer:

Does anyone else take their jewellery off to get weighed... I have one of those Pandora bracelets with charms on and it weighs loads so I have been taking it off as I was thinking every little helps. Is that sad?

Hi all, I was wondering if you could help me... Ive done the SW thing before and lost 2 stone, but since quitting ive managed to gain 4 stone - ouch! so decided to start up again and found the extra easy plan. Being a Green person normally this EE has completely thrown me re: syns! Can someone please advise me about Batchelors dried savoury rice? Its Free on Green but LOADS on Red (understandably) but on extra easy do I put it down as Free because its the lower syn value? Any tips would be great! Thanks!

:hello: Hi there

I joined SW last Weds. I have a few targets, firstly to lose 13lbs and get back to my pre-pregnancy weight (10st 6lbs). I'm determined to do this by July 1st (1lb a week is doable isn't it?) I was overweight before I got pregnant though, so my next target is to get down to 9st by the end of the year.

I've done SW in the past and always had great results, and am exercising this time as well so am hoping to do well. I wanted to join this thread for motivation, support and inspiration - am looking forward to getting to know you all x

Yes, you are correct - the rice will be free on green and on EE! Loads of tips all the way through this thread - if you have some time try and scan through them! Good luck with your weight loss.

1. Number one tip - keep coming to this forum and post your eating plans and how you get on with things, just keeping in touch with a group of fellow SW fanatics will help!
