Be Fab not Fat in Fourteen! (welcome to the Slimming World Support thread)

joedenise - I love you for keeping me on track!

I actually didn't have the couscous salad - too miserable and cold here - and had some lovely homemade tomato soup leftover from yesterday and a banana at lunchtime. I'm making a big fruit salad so that should help - and keep me away from the trifle too.

oh and yesterday I also had grapes, mango, pineapple & melon during the day.

Thanks again.

Mine are Salter ones from Amazon. They were 10 quid and you can measure body fat and water levels with them but I don't bother with that bit.

Hi dfh, welcome to the board..

The best thing you can do is write everything down, if you want to, pop your menus on here and someone will be able to check you're not going wrong

You could always ask your consultant to check your food diaries too, she'll be able to point out anywhere where she thinks you're eating extras syns.

By the way, 2.5 lbs gain over a holiday, Xmas and New Year is a win in my book :rotfl:I put on 7lbs!

Thanks for the welcome Shala_moo

My weight had crept up and up slowly over the years and when it nearly got to 16 st I thought I had better get a grip of myself so joined SW online last June. I lost nearly 2 stone before Christmas, getting down to 14st 2 and "only" overweight instead of obese. Put on 10lb (I'm rubbish when there are nice things to eat in the house). So, here I am, back on it.

Starting (again) weight was 14st 12.5lb. First weigh in last Monday and I'd lost 5lb. Yay! Only another 2 stone to go to be in the healthy weight range.

Perhaps posting on here will keep me on the straight and narrow??
