Slimming World Support Thread

niceday999

Hi
I joined slimming World last year and managed to lose over 1/2 stone and drop a dress size from 16 to 14. Have put weight back on and am going to give it another go.
I should really go to the class but cant afford it at the minute.
I have all the books and am going to read them this weekend and try and get myself motivated as i just hate my big fat jelly belly....lol
anyway I would like to join you all here and give each other support I am a 41 year old ( 2 st overweight ) mama.....

Whats a star week? Also, what pill stops them?:o

lol... that'll be the "ladies monthly visitor" (you can put a star on your weighing in sheet of you think there is a pattern of monthly-related weight gain)...

can't imagine I need to explain about the pill......

<snip> am going to really try and stay on track this week. Anyone got any gorgeous ideas for quick and lovely teas?:o

This week I am sticking to green (bit of an experiment for me!)

tonight I had pasta with roasted squash, grilled bacon (B) and feta (A/B) yummmmy

lunch was omlette, salad and SW chips

tomorrow night is a stir fry of oriental veggies, ginger, garlic, soy etc some 'chicken style' quorn pieces served with either rice or noodles - don't know which yet!

I lost 3½ lbs tonight at weigh in. :j Really pleased with that as last week gained 2lbs, felt very disheartened and nearly gave up.

I'm not posting as much as I am back to work this week and when I get in it's paperwork and then bed as I'm shattered. Hopefully once the start of term rush settles down I'll be chattier!

shanleypink - quorn meatballs and spaghetti - just heat the meatballs with garlic, a can of chopped toms and herbs! YUMMY!

Or omlette - put anything you like in it!

beachbeth - I've been changed to a contraceptive pill called Cerazette. Means I don't get periods. Weird at first but I could get used to this! (Shame I'll have to come off it to have babies.........:rotfl:)

I have vile periods but can't imagine taking something like this. I feel as though I need to have my period in order for all the build-up to drain away. Can you take this all the time and forever if need be?

Sorry to drift off subject! I thought that was what you meant by a star week but I'd never heard it called that before! I didn't realise SW took that into account!

Well done Jolene!
