    Has anyone read "101 things to do before you Diet"? I've just started it but I think it's oing to make a lot of sense ;)
    A bit like SW it's about change of habits & the way we think about food rather than follwoing any particular diet (though SW is definately the way to go!) ;)
  • i don't know who it was that said, a few pages back - about the recipe's that are on the facebook site!
    i checked it out and there are pictures of what people have cooked and most have the recipe and syns etc., there are a lot of transformation pics of people who have lost weight, care of SW.
    slimming world start: 17.1.10 @ 200 lb's
    lost up to now - 7 lb's
    first target: 180 (this is waht i stuck to most of my life!)
    second target: 160 ( I haven't been this for over 10 years)
    third target: 138(my personal target)

    Evening all, thats me back from WI and had my HM beefburgers for tea (thanks to oh)
    I lost 1lb. Im quite chuffed but feel I didnt deserve to lose as I was a pig last night.
    Anyway going to try superhard this week and aim for another 1-2lb loss.
    There no point in me paying almost a fiver everyweek for someone to tell me I havnt lost anything or worse ive gained.

    Thanks for all the words of support. Before I went in tonight Id decided Id stay no matter what the scales said.

  • Well, first weigh-in tonight and I lost 5 lbs, so am pleased with that.

    Many many more to go, but a good start!

    your right. When I did SW for the first time, I lost consistantly 2-4lbs per week, the least I ever lost was 2 lbs. This was on green mainly with the odd red day. I used to walk for around 2 hours every afternoon after I dropped my dd at nursery I would walk into town with new born ds. But ive moved to the country now and its too dangerous to walk on the roads.
    So if I avoid pizzas and limit my wine (or change to gin ;)) and try and do more walking/exercise. Im hoping ill get back to those great losses every week.
