    Hello all.

    I have been struggling this week, more with the depression than the plan.
    Since tuesday I have been eating SW way and counting syns.
    I find if I make breakfast the night before (porrage&yogurt) I am ok the rest of the day and if I dont, it all goes to pot.
    At the moment I am trying not to get to hung up on the plan, but more to get my self to eat properly and well each day.
    On friday I had a chicken curry, shop bought jar, but then I only had half and made it with quorn, thus cutting something down!
    Yesterday went out to sunday luch and had roast and pudding.
    Back on SW plan today.

    Rainbowfairy dust your consultant sounds like mine! It is off putting isnt it. A Monday really suits me so i don't want to change group but I don't get out of group what I should do as she is really off putting. She has a really strong accent as well which makes her very difficult to understand at times. We generally go around every body's weightloss and then thats it.......................Doesn't really give you any tips or motivation. I would be happy to not have my weighloss read out or discussed to chat about other things like recipes etc.

    My day from hell continues - nothing is shifting this headache or irritability. I threw half my lunch in the bin (salad) as just couldn't eat it and ate the go ahead biscuits that have sat in my drawer since before I sarted SW 8 weeks ago.:eek:

    I think I'll pay the Dr a visit regarding this PMT surely to god it shouldn't be as bad as this and I'm quite fed up with it.

    The consultant on monday group is pretty much useless tbh ..she has never once done body image after class. Has her favourites and everyone else is pretty much ignored. I feel its a waste of a fiver BUT i do want to top up on Hifi bars..

    There is a group on at lunchtime tomorrow approx 3 mins away from work which although is nearer isnt much better (went a few times to avoid monday :eek:) . the scales hardly worked and the consultant doesnt seem to be very organised.

    Sorry to hear you are still feeling rubbish. I know how you feel. I suffer terribly when its TOTM :(. Do you take any vitamins? I am currently testing out (and so far so good) a vitamin B complex tablet which i bought from boots. Its a tenner for 40 days supply. Pretty expensive but if it sorts me out then worth it. I am still on month one so the jury is still out.

    These aren't on-line yet (just checked!) but I'm not so sure they'd be free because if you use a jar of sweet chilli it's 2 syns a Tbs so think I'd allow a couple of syns "just in case" but it depends on how many syns you've had overall (either on the day or over the week).

    This is awful - why aren't you and anyone else complaining???

    I'm sorry but I wouldn't pay money for people to insult me or provide a service that is less than I expect. I would write to head office and ask them what their definition of Image Therapy is and see if it matches what you are receiving for your hard-earned cash - if it doesn't then complain!

    im not sure why :rotfl::rotfl:. I guess i have just accepted it happens and bar changing group there isnt much that could be done. I suppose i am also concerned that SW HQ would tell my consultant that i was the person who complained. I can 100% say that i have not ONCE took part in a body image session though. Basically all that happens is claps/commiserations . Everyone goes home.

    However if i had a consultant like MI's then i would complain because being insulted is a whole separate ball game. I would also be looking for a new group. I wouldnt be paying a fiver for someone to make me feel sh1te about myself.

    I suppose it all comes to peoples interpretations of what they consider is enough to make them complain.
