Lose Weight 6

cheekymole

I'm going to post a few recipes over on our OS thread later today so I hope you'll all pop over there to take a look. One of them is a real Easter treat of SW ferrero rocher which are delicious and only 1 syn each. I aim to post the recipes by about 9pm trying to catch up on my Spanish homework at the mo but MSE is too addictive

Just thought I would share a tip that helped me loads when I lost weight...like most people I get serious sugar cravings and I found Tesco's Raspberry Sorbet fantastic for helping.. I don't know how many sins it is but it comes in at around 7 Weight watchers points for the whole 500ml tub (the same as a chunky kit kat). I found whenever I was having a craving a couple of teaspoons seemed to help.
(Lost 2 stone at the time...put 5lbs back on which I am trying to shake at the moment!)

Well Done Cheeky Mole - thats fantastic!
Have a lovely lovely holiday, you deserve it after all you hard work and effort.

We had the SW ferrerro Rocher last night at class, they are yum!!

Well done Cheeky mole
Rachie77 - good luck with the weigh.

I am glad I have found this thread as its good to speak to other dieters I was wondering if anyone else here has dieted from the start without the help of a slimming club?

I have in the past gone through loads of faddy diets. I did lose quite a bit with the milkshakes but must admit it was a bit boring. Last time I lost weight was with SW but not going to class etc and I did lose well but then I got a bit complacent and put it all back on again and more. So here I am again my theory being that if I go to class and pay to go to class I won't want to keep paying so will keep an eye on my weight a bit better. (when you get to target you don't pay as long as you stay 3lb either side of target weight)
That's my theory so in 3-4 weeks time I will hopefully be a non-paying member (fingers crossed)

I have every faith in you - look at how well you have done so far, and in such a short space of time.

Aw thanks honey, two people have made me feel great today and you're one of them.

You will do it! Watch this space!!
Did you set your target with your consultant? I joined SW on the first night - it was a new class. We have never discussed targets etc, I have filled in my own interim target in my blue book but have never discussed it with the SW consultant

As I said yesterday I've lost a stone so far, ideally I'd like to (and could do with!) losing another 1 - 1 1/2 although I would be happy with 1 , any more would be a bonus. My first half stone came off really quickly, the other half was like watching paint dry. Do you have any tips for getting it shifted quicker. If I could I'd like to lose a few more pounds before I go away next week, then putting a few on while I'm away won't feel so bad. BTW -
I went to the physio today and she is allowing me to start back to the gym - gradually - so hopefully I will be able to fit that in after I get home from my hols.

Awww...you guys both really deserve your holidays - i think we'll all miss for the short time you're away though! Well done losers!
