Hi can anyone help me please?

I joined SW yesterday but the consultant didn't give me the password (or if it was posted up somewhere I didn't notice it).

I texted him as soon as I got home but he hasn't replied.

How do I go about getting the password so I can go online?

Many thanks

Daisy

mrsmortenharket

we are not allowed to give out the password I'm afraid.

Last weeks still works though, cos I didn't get to class this week.

SW essentials for me:

Ryvita, Ryvita fruit crunch, FF yogurts, ff cottage cheese, jacket potatoes, bakes beans, Catherderal City lower fat cheese, laughing cow extra light, fruits, salads, vegetables. I also like quorn products.

Make meals from scratch, which I'm sure you do if you are on a small budget.

Todays food diary

B: 2 quorn sausages, 2 sml slices wholemeal bread, 2 teaspoons tomato sauce (Heb & 1 syn)
Snack: FF plain yogurt
L: baked potato with 2 laughing cow extra light, beans & salad (2 syns)
snack: apple slices, carrot batons & ff cottage cheese
quorn bolognaise & wholemeal pasta & 42g lf cheddar (HEa)
snack: 2 ryvita fruit crunch. (HEb)

Thanks, but last week's password doesn't help me as I only joined yesterday.

The consultant still hasn't replied to my text, so I have just phoned him but his voicemail is switched off so I couldn't leave a message. So much for 'contact me any time I am always here for you'....

I appreciate he has a life, but it is a simple question from a new member - and if he had told me the password when I joined, I wouldn't be trying to contact him.

It isn't a big deal, I'll just have to wait until I go to next week's meeting.

Daisy

Edit: just to say a friend has given me the password, so I am up and running now!

Thanks... you know who you are :-)

Morning peeps:wave:

Had WI last night and STS. Am actually quite happy with that as clothes felt a bit tighter yesterday:eek: which I'm hoping is just water retention or something as the jeans I wore felt grand at the weekend. It was nearly a 0.5lb loss as the scales hovered, why when they do that do they never go in my favour:rotfl:

Plan to do some exercise this week, so the wii fit will be dusted off this evening and may treat myself to a new game as well:D Think I'm having a green day today but not sure of menu so will post todays meal plan up later when I've had a think.x

hello all!

i have been lurking on here for a while. ive been follwing slimming world by myself since about september 2009 and so far have lost 38lbs. i find the plan really easy to get on with, im a student and LOVE to cook (so supplement my MASSIVE apetite(Sp))
basically, recently my weight loss has really really slowed. for example, this week i have come in around 13 syns aday follwing green and red days (mainly green as i find this cheaper to follow) and has lost no weight.
soem times is quite sporadic, ie. when we've gone out, drank alot and maybe even had a sneaky portion of chips on the way home ive lost!! it doesnt make any sense!!

my theory is at, as i look over my food diary, i have generally been having both my HEB as toast over the day. do you think i should limit toast to only one HEB?
i make sure i measure my HEA, which are usually cheese as i hardly drink milk.
my syns are generally specificthings rather than additions to cooking like sauces, tomato ketchup, mayo etc.. (ie. things like a solero icecream (5) option hot choc (2) Meatfree products, curly wurly (6.5) etc..)

you guys seem to like ryvita fruit cruch, are 2 a HEB? i like the idea of haveing 2 of those later on instead of toast.

any help would be wonderful. thankyou!
your all doing so well, and you really discuss all the issues i miss at classes!

thankyou again

Hi everyone

Thank you so much for all your tips, am going to try out some of your recipes before i start next week, as i am trying to convince my DH to join too, but hes not too keen on the one lettuce leaf and a sniff of tomatoe type diets which he thinks he will have to do, so he says he will join if i can convince him (im also looking forward to tasting some of the things on here). Congratulations eeryone on their weight losses.

Kind Regards
