New Slimming World thread part 2

recovering_spendaholic

Hello everyone and hope you all had a good Christmas. I am back again, although this time I am doing Slimming World online - I just paid out my £59.95 to join for three months so I had better stick to it! I have also been diagnosed with gallstones (after a very painful night at A&E) so I need to stick to a low fat diet.

You all seem to have done not so badly over Christmas - Karen well done - 5 stones - :TI am so in awe!

I have started today (again:o) and have spent a good couple of hours looking around the site. I had no breakfast as I was up late, and then had half a tin of Branston chilli beans with some Batchelor's savoury rice (mexican) and some salad leaves- the rice was a bit tasteless so I crumbled in an oxo. When I checked the syns online to find out how much was in an oxo I found it listed as free! I thought only liquid stock stuff was free?

My first goal is to get my weight down enough so that the Wii fit doesn't say I'm too heavy when I stand on it! That means losing about 4 stone:o

I am doing extra easy but cutting out all red meat and cheese (cos of the gallstones) so here's hoping for a slimmer 2010!

Hope you are all having a good day!

Hi all, well had my WI (at SWC house just up the road!) and have put on the 3 I was limiting myself too. Even though I had her to myself she wasn't very helpful and said she wouldn't recommend me doing Fast Forward, so back to my struggles She just said to focus on superfree food rather than anything else (which is what I've been doing anyway as I've been looking at speed foods which are mostly superfree) :rolleyes:
Got party food tonight, then off to Edinburgh tomorrow so will be eating out until Sunday so next week's not looking good either though hopefully a lot of walking will mean I don't put another 3 on!
Can't really get my head in gear until OH goes back to work on 4th & leaves me alone, but I promise I will try to drink lots of water and be as good as I possibly can.

Afternoon all:hello:

Have rejoined - and feel relieved!;) Bring on extra easy (possibly:rotfl:). Still not sure my 'green day' brain can cope. Will need to think about it - but am just glad to be doing something about feeling so flabby!

Hi there

I've just joined Slimming World again tonight after a very long break.

Feeling the extra weight creeping on has been very uncomfortabe and I knew I needed help so decided to go back to club.

This was just a weigh in tonight due to holidays but should be a proper class next week.

Looking forward to getting back on track and also getting some good tips on here.

Thanks

Lola

ps Do we put up our weight and/or weight loss each week?

Hello, do you mind if I join in please?

I will be joining a SW class on NYE. My nearest class is on a Friday, but is not open this week because of the holiday. The consultant running it also has a class on Thursday which I will be joining this week, so that I can see in 2010 fully focussed, joining my local class a week Friday. If I left it another week Lord knows how much more damage I'll do!

:hello: Hi all the newboes & returners! SW never discloses weight - but this is up to you as no-one knows you usually it's just weight loss/gain that we reveal!

Well i've had a bad 1st day of my week! Drove 300+ miles to Edinburgh - no breakfast as bacon smelt off, so a pack of McCoys & a service station sarnie (egg & bacon!) as lunch then just had an Indian for dinner. Hope to do better tomorrow.
My consultant just said to focus on superfree foods when I spoke to her yesterday - not much help as that's what I've been doing anyway! Maybe slimfast is the way to go for a few weeks
Edinburgh nice and icy but no snow in the city as such! Shopping tomorrow!

Thanks Skint Catt
