A Slimmer Summer with Slimming World

Drea

Hello!

I'm a newbie and will be going to my first SW meeting on Thursday with the OH. Not hugely overweight but certainly have seen (and felt) that I've fattened up a lot over the past year and just want to get back to a weight that I feel comfortable with. I am a bit worried that because I'm not extremely overweight I shouldn't be going to the groups... I was going to just do it online but OH wanted to go to the groups too so I've been persuaded

Welshwoofer - nice to hear you and OH are getting on a bit better:D and the WM pittas don't bloat me as much as bread.

To be honest it all feels a bit false - he's trying too hard after I gave him a "shape up or ship out" warning and I'm struggling to get my head around it all. Still not happy but am trying to at least give it a chance. I suppose I have to give it some time and hope my feelings will change. We'll see how long his change of attitude lasts - not holding out much hope, but I'll get on with it for now.

Hi am I ok posting on here if I haven't joined a SW group? I kept meaning to but now sadly unable to justify spending the weekly fee! Could do with some support as been following the plan for a while and lost almost 2 stone but struggling to keep motivated and have about another 8 to go!!:o

Hi and welcome MM - you are in good company here. If you want inspiration then hang out with us tomorrow morning for a (hopefully) big celebration when Mrs Macawber will get her 10 stone shiny - don't forget the tissues.

I am SO excited to report a loss of 3.5lb this morning :j which takes me under 10 stone for the first time in ages and means I've lost 7.5lb in 3 weeks :j:D

I am very pleased with myself, particularly as this week I had to navigate BH monday at the pub, a day at a theme park and a whole day travelling for work. I guess it just shows SW can fit into 'normal life' if you want it to.

Whats up takeiteasy?

Well done to all the other losers

Back on plan this morning though and going for an EE day...

Morning all,

done my wi this morn and i've lost 0.5lb :j. This is the least i've weighed in around 4yrs. 10st 11lb always seemed to be a psycological sticking point for me. All the other times i've tried to loose weight i've never managed to get to 10st 11lb or less i always seemed to plateau and loose and gain the same few lb's and began to think that that was my natural weight. Only difference is i stuck at it this time i perservered through the gains and losses and the sts so i now know i can do it. I will eventually get to my target weight!

Well done to all you other loosers and big welcome to all the newbies

I'm going for an EE today

B - special k (5), milk (part hea) and apple
L - wm pitta (heb) tom puree (1) and cheese (rest of hea) with cherry toms, celery and cucumber
T - spag bol made with chopped toms, onions, mushrooms, peppers and will have more mixed veg to make up my 1/3 as we're out of fruit now
S - not sure yet so either a curly wurly (6) or walkers crisps(6.5)

Cant wait to see your loss this morn MrsM
