here here, you dont have to eat processed ready meals or tinned food good old home cooking is best all around tho there are plenty of low syn ready meals out there i always have some in my freezer for a quick meal:D

I was just saying this the other day, about it encouraging you to cook and eat properly. I did weightwatchers a few years ago, and lost a bit, but my eating habits were still terrible - I would eat nothing all day so that I could have a takeaway and wine at night, or I would eat microwave ready meals.

I hardly ate any fruit, because fruit wasn't 'free', and ate loads of diet products that were high in sugar, salt etc, just because they were lower in points.

I think on balance weight watchers is easier to get the hang of, but slimming world is probably healthier and more sustainable long term.

Afternoon all, Is it weigh in day today? I have just weighed this morning and lost 1.5 lbs-chuffed to bits.
Hope everyone feeling ok-snaggs, hope you are to, if really bad go to gps lots of options to work through x

I agree itis one of the best for HM cooking, although they must have sponsership from bachelors and muller!!!

Thanks Bob - I will go if it doesn't get any better. Well done on your weight loss!! :T :T

I weighed myself this morning and had lost nothing :rotfl: but I don't mind because at this time of the month, usually I am a good few pounds heavier, and I know I was 2lbs lighter midweek, so I will put it down to water retention and ignore the scales....lol!

Hi guys can I join?

I've been back at class about 4 weeks and had a really bad day on Monday so not looking forward to weigh in tomorrow night.

So far I have lost 3.5 lbs, which isn't huge, but at least it's off right?

Cleosmum

My weigh in is tomorrow night Lucy, we will have to be weigh in buddies.

Now I am wondering if I should join you all properly, even though I started 8 months ago, what do you think?

Well done lucy, 3.5 lbs is huge!! Don't knock it:T :T
When i frist started at groups would here that a lot, yet if you talk to folk ..how may times have they said, if only i could lose a couple of pounds..you've done that and more:j

Snaggles

3.5lbs is half a standard-sized new born baby....:rotfl: That's quite a bit of weight to lose really, if you look at it that way.

Will update the spreadsheet a bit later with all the new starters and weigh-ins. (Cleosmum, I'll add you to the spreadsheet and then it's up to you if you want to post/pm your losses)

I know I think I have issues with it because the first time I joined I lost 5lbs in the first week (the size of my cousins new born baby!!) and yet 4 weeks in and I've not lost it yet.

But I keep thinking that when I did this first time I lost 4.5 stone, and have put 2.5 stone back on so every little helps and it's not like it's virgin weight loss. Well it makes me feel better.
