    Argh 0 got that night before WI paranoia again :(

    Got to stop this - I'm literally terrified about what I will have lost/gained! Guess it's just because it means so much to me. Got to think about something else..... :o
  • Can I join in please? :D

    Had a very turbulent few years, end of a 30+ year marriage, dating again in my 50's :eek:, met a wonderful man who is now my husband, and after a honeymoon cruise, weekends away, cooking for lovely DH and DD's wedding, I find myself at 15 st 2 lbs :o

    Got all my SW books out, planning on EE, sadly cannot get to meetings due to DH's work pattern and looking after DGS.

    It's nearly 3 years since I last did a SW class and I have put on 16lbs since then.....

    So starting again today.....hope you dont mind me tagging along with you other SWers :D

    Hi Fozziebear :hello: Love the name! xxx

    B - 2 x weetabix (b), Milk (A), raspberries
    Snack - strawberries
    L - lettuce, toms, peppers, cucumber, cooked chicken breast, balsamic vinegar dressing (0.5), ML yoghurt
    Snack - banana, 2 satsumas

    Looks good but you really ought to have a few more syns. You're supposed to have at least 5 syns a day.

    Hi hope I can join you!

    Never done slimming world or any "diet plan" before but my mum has been doing it just over a year and has lost over 4 stone! So when I found myself over 2 stone overweight and unable to fit in any my clothes I've decided to give it a go!

    Just had my first full week and have lost 4lb! :) I'm lucky I'm breastfeeding my 2 month old so get extra Healthy extras so I don't feel deprived at all .....at the moment! :p:rotfl:

    Fozzie -sadly those Greek yogs are 1/2 a syn each not free ( I was gonna buy them too so checked) But not too bad a syn value for something yummy! :)
