Slimming World Support Thread

Morning all.

Weighed in last night (my first proper one) and have lost 3 1/2 lbs. Couldn't believe it :j

I was on here yesterday convinced that I hadn't lost an ounce never mind a pound, so don't despair lab-dab

I know what people mean about the constantly going to the loo I have a theory about that, maybe because we are eating more fruit and veg which all contain quite a lot of water??

Good luck amie and lillysmum

Congratulations Charliesmum

Snuggles did the scales beep and settle? They're not supposed to record the weight until the scales beep. If they don't they should ask you to get off and try again - the batteries may be going. Next week ask to use the stable scales! Or have a laugh and try both!

Hi Catt,

No there was no beep and they didn't settle (although i can't remember hearing a beep in previous weeks, but they have settled before). I really wanted to ask to try the other scales, but just didn't want to cause a fuss, which is daft really as I've paid my £4.50, so shouldn't worry about wanting to ensure the scales are right.

You never know which scales you are getting on until you get on them, if you see what i mean! Last night it almost felt as though I was trying to stand on a ball, they were so wobbly. After I sat down I was watching other people who were being weighed on the same scales, and I did see a few confused faces, but maybe I'm just grasping at straws to explain my weight gain! :rolleyes:

If it happens again next week, I will definitely say something.

My old consultant had scales that did that sometimes and I was never very convinced about hers tbh but then again I was never very convinced by her. I haven't got that at the one I am with now and at my first class (yeah I have done the rounds as I moved about) you could never see the readings yourself so I never knew.

Yeah it is niggling with me a bit, but as I didn't say anything I suppose I just have to assume it's right, and try harder this week! I don't really want to start weighing myself on my own scales to compare weightloss (or gain!), as I will get obsessive and start weighing myself ten times a day!

Think I will leave it this week, but if it happens again I will either say something at the time, or if I'm too chicken, ring my consultant during the week and mention it to her.

:grouphug: Its hard to stick to the plan when something like that happens, Hang on in there till next week. Failing that I am sure once you have paid you can go to any groups you want through the week. A bit like alcoholics Anonymous. ( on a frivalous note I always want to stand up in group and do an AA style "Hello my name is Em and I am a compulsive cake eater!:rotfl: " Its a very bad thing to be imagining in your head as the leader is talking! She is so good aswell, very welcomming and very reassuring)

My own scales are in the kitchen, I find I jump on and off all day long. More out of curiosity then anything else. I have noticed when I keep an eye on my weight day to day I tend to be better at sticking to the diet! It gives me that boost I need not to eat that cake that is calling to me from the tin.

My Dad is following the diet with me and he gets weighed on my scales at home on my weigh in night. I have found that my jkitchen scales are about 1lb heavier then the SW scales at group. ALso cause the scales are there in the kitchen next to the fridge it is a not so subtle reminder every time I open the fridge!!

So off to wash the pots, I had to come and read the thread cause I wanted to eat cake! Going to go be a good girl and put the cake in the kids wardrobe. Out of sight and out of mind and all that stuff!:rolleyes:

well done aime!!! way to go!!!

i prefer red days also. last time i went to sw was 11 years ago!! just after i had ds1.

im a real big meat eater so i find red days easier, i am tucking into a HUGE bacon and egg salad. brekkie was a tub of vanilla muller light and fresh raspberries.

i started yesterday and last night i felt sooo full. used my sins on a cuppa with sugar and a fudge:)

you are all doing so well!
