Slimming World support thread 2

Mountaingirl

It's great to hear other people's success stories.

Today has been according to plan except I didn't have fruit and yogurt at tea time. I turned it into a green day with HEB of ham and bread and HEA of cheese and milk (haven't drunk all the milk yet though so will carry it to tomorrow).

Syns have been a chocolate biscuit.
Tomorrow I am planning:
B: mushroom omlette, apple
L: turkey sandwich with a big big salad
pork stirfry and rice

HEA milk.

Self indulgent post coming up sorry in advance

I'm now far more body conscious than I was when I was 4 stone heavier?! Before I didn't care about what my body looked like I was fat I looked like a potato I accepted that and never thought oooh that bit looks horrid. Today I was stood leaning over while on the phone and I thought urgh my bellys all jiggly now I'm horrified by how gross and wobbly and horrid my belly looks! Like all I've done since then is poke at my stomach and thought urgh I never ever thought that before I lost weight? Maybe I just made peace with being fat and solid and now it's skin n less fat its different
Pah I don't bloody know thought being thinner would be easier but all it's made me do is feel repulsed

Here Endeth the rant sorry I just needed to get it off my chest sorry

I can totally empathise with you. I never cared what I looked like when over weight, wore leggings most of the time. Now am skinny minny I am so body conscious. My bum is so flat I like to wear long tops to cover it. Hate the muffin top that appears when sitting so always have cardy/jumper covering it. I imagine everyone is always looking at me and commenting but I know they aren't. Like you I thought being skinny would fix my self worth but really it's made it worse .

Evening guys, very quick update to say hi, and then off to bed to get some much needed sleep.

Welcome to our newbies Tich, Mountain and Veyron, join in for plenty of support and chat.... lots of chat

Well hands up everyone who forgot one of their children had a birthday today, and that the food plan would be completely off piste? :wave:

*sighs* I don't even know if I should begin to tell you what today's plan was, but I think for the record, and to prove how NOT to do SW, I will.

B - Danio yogurt (1), kiwi fruit, banana .... see, it all started really well.
L - Costa skinny capuccino, ham & cheese panini, lemon tart (because I'm weak, and stupid)
D - Takeaway pizza at birthday boy's request, plus a small slice of the hm vanilla sponge I made for him.
HeA - milk in teas
Heb - I gave up at the panini, so why bother?
Total syns = a gazillion

I really don't think the hour's walk I did this morning will have negated the food intake, and I had to cancel going to aquafit because I'd forgotten it was son's birthday too. At least I remembered to get him presents and cards, and bake him a cake.

No time to comment on posts now, but just want to say well done to Frogga for being back on it today, and well done to anyone who was on plan today. I promise I will be very good for the rest of the week, and into next week... another birthday next Thursday too then no more until August - thank goodness!

Evening all and welcome to all of the newbies :wave:

Shala I would like to report a 1.5lb loss this week. Super chuffed with that as I beat my 14lb target on here, and I got my 1 stone award tonight in group. Not bad for my 3rd weigh in. Im also only 7lb away from club 10, so would love to get this before the end of this challenge.

Well done to all of the other losers. Annie that is a fab loss!

Mildredd don't you dare be repulsed! You have done amazingly to have lost 4stone, so be proud. I am trying to incorporate a little bit of exercise here and there so that I tone whilst I lose weight. Before when I lost 2.5stone(before I put it all back on) my stomach was super saggy, I could make all sorts of shapes with all the lose skin - so I can sympathise with you. But I would rather be in that situation and weigh 2 stone less. With exercise you will start to notice it less. I hope I haven't offended you.

Morning everyone. Greetings to newcomers and congrats to some amazing losers!:beer:

Shala-moo, please put me down as -2lbs this week.

I have had a mixed week giving in to the chocolate fairies a few times, evenings the worst. But every new day......!

Take care of yourselves all,
Polly.

Morning all..

Didn't have enough water yesterday so feel a bit fuzzy headed today - lets hope i can make it through!

EE day today

B - banana, yogurt, oats (3)
L - spaghetti hoops, toast if i can find some bread (heb)
T - turkey meatloaf, couscous, salad, mint yogurt
S - pop chips (4.5)

Mildredd, you can always start a bit of tummy toning after you've had your op... i think when we're bigger we can just be in a state of denial a bit, "i know i'm fat but i'm not going to think about it" type thing.

Toning up will just be part of your journey, and you've done amazing well so far :j

Morning all :j and welcome to the newbies
