pennylane, i know what u mean, last year i lost four stone, and then met one of my mates when i lost it all. she didnt mention anything about my weight loss, which was a bit dissapointing, because it was very noticable. my two closest friendss noticed it straightaway.

Well done to everyone this week, had my 1st WI tonight and lost 5lb and different stone weight, so going to try for that 2lb next week if I can behave Saturday when we go out for an Italian meal, don't Know what to eat for the best reallly!!Maybe a zipper across my mouth would be better.

I personally find that "oh, you are looking well " is code for you've lost weight.:rolleyes:
Red deb if it was me going for the Italian firstly I'd want him tall dark and handsome.....;) secondly I'd probably be on a green day and have some pasta with a veggie sauce. Certainly I'd pick something with a lot of free food in it if I could. Definitely no pizza for me, as I've found on the couple of times I've had some post SW that it didn't agree with me (I'd never noticed before!) and left me feeling really bloated and full of trapped wind the next day! which is a shame as I love pizza

well done Deb thats great. And good luck for next week. Think i would try and have free food through the day and save some syns too. That way if your good through the week you should be fine.Like Scroogy I Think I would also stick to green for that day too. And if there is a spare italian going send him my way please;)

Wow some great weight losses - well done Angie and Scroogey.:T :T

Just back from WI and I lost 1 lb so I got my 1 and a half stone award!!:j :j :j :j One pound doesn't sound a lot does it, but as my consultant said if you lose a pound a week for a year that's 4 STONE!!!:eek: :eek: I can definitely feel I've lost weight and am feeling much healthier.

I bumped into my niece today who I have not seen for nearly a year and she didn't comment at all, which surprised me really because her weight is very up and down and she knows all about dieting!
A friend of mine (who has lost 6 STONES) visited her friend who lives abroad and she was SO disappointed that her friend said nothing about her weight loss and her new image. What is it about some people that they can't give other people compliments or at least acknowedge that they look well or healthy. :rolleyes:

well done pennylane on your loss and another sticker. Your doing great

Can anyone tell me what the incentives are? Well, I mean like stickers/certificates? I like to use those as something to aim at too but don't know when they're awarded. Also, do you get body magic stickers too?

(As in with weight watchers they do a sticker every 1/2 stone & then a 10% keyring & then goal weight stuff & also certificates at 50Ibs etc)

Skint_Catt

You get a sticker for each half stone and for Slimmer of the week/month. You get one for Club 10 too and a free week at class when you've kept that weight off or lost more for 10 weeks. Not sure about body magic but think its bronze, silver and gold but don't know the levels.

Hi everyone!

I've been making a half hearted attempt at SW since January but with my 30th birthday in a few weeks, I've decided to focus on myself for a change. I've been following the plan properly for the last few days and have already lost 3lb this week. Quite excited! And looking forward to losing 3st

Hello everyone,
newbie (former lurker) here - can I join you all please? I don't go to a group but follow online and have taken a subscription to the magazine, but it's not the same as having a group of people to talk to. All your posts are really inspirational.
I'd like to lose a stone and a half, not too pressed for time but it would be nice if it was gone by the time we go on holiday in late october!
