Have lost 3lb this week:) must be all the snow walking as I've been eating well and had some flexi meals.

So got my club ten certificate - which was my 2nd Christmas wish, also means I'm only 2.5lb off losing 2 stone:) (that can wait until the new year now)

To celebrate I have been to Birmingham and brought some take out Chinese food in for tonight to have with parents, with some wine.

Well done Alison that is fab.
I had a little peek at the scales today and have gained 1lbs, not bad considering I was on an all inclusive holiday for 8 nights xx
 
Well I weighed in today after being in Egypt 8 nights All Inclusive & only gained 0.5lbs. Not bad at all. Must of been the long walks & the days at the gym which helped me not gain massively! Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you all have a good one x
 
Oh my god I am over 9 stone now lol! Ive put loads on in only a few days and my uniform feels tight.
I am joining sw on 5th Jan, today spent some time looking through new recipes and I have already wrote out at food diary for the week of all the meals I'm going to make.

I was thinking this week ive not been as in control but did decide to have Christmas off the diet.

My older baggy jeans dont feel as baggy and my new ones do - oops! Not really eaten loads extra but have not had my usual fruit/salad intake, not been near the gym and have been drinking wine - only a bottle over the week.

Had a message today that Thurs eve club in the village is cancelled school has burst pipes and is flooded. So no club for 2 weeks, do hope other regulars are ok. I went to daytime class in next town last Thurs and will have to try and go this week - as seeing the damage on the scales will I hope shock me back to plan!

Once I'm back at work next Tues I will be ok its the lunches out and hot chocs out and nice food still in the fridge here thats not helping! Been to Wagamama for lunch today and going to Cafe Soya chinese in Birmingham tomorrow for lunch with about 15 vegan friends which will no doubt end in a pub trip:{

Makes me realise just how quickly the pounds can go back on - reckon I've put 2-3 back on in under a week!

Am sure I'll be more positive and on track next week:)
 
I hope you can get to class soon Alison. Let me know how you get on. I spoke to a consultant today and I'm going to join her class next week.
Isn't it amazing how much you can put on in only a few days, my stomach is normally quite flat and it feels awful at the minute, also noticed my boobs keep hanging out my bra, not a nice look hahaha! And usually they stay in well lol! x
 
My Slimming World Food Diary starting from 6th January 2011!
I have showed only the syns which I have used in meals as I tend to have what I fancy on the day rather than set syns.
Let me know what you think to it.
I'm starting the class next week so want to be really ready for it.
Thanks hunni, love Stacey x

Looking good there:) don't think I'd stick to a menu plan as never iknow what we are having or what time I'll be in from work.

I had lunch out at Cafe Soya in Birmingham today - I had my usual weetabix for breakfast, then a tub of fruit salad mid morning.

Lunch was a started of marinated tofu kebabs with a chilli dip and my fave veggie chicken in sweet and sour sauce with steamed rice, did not have pudding, and had mineral water.

A lot of friends had not seen me since before my diet so was nice to hear the positive comments they said they really could see a difference:)

I am so full still but will have some soup later or something syn free or a couple of rice cakes and some homemade syn free hummous.

Went to the pub after and made half a beer last 2 hours:)

I also took a bag of the Christmas chocolate I'd had and gave it to a couple of friends there. I had so much choc given me - have kept the hotel chocolate choc as I will ration that over the next few months and if it gets too tempting will take to friends or work. I looked at it all last night and thought I had to give some away.

Feeling like I'm back on plan now - will go to weigh in if I'm up in time in the morning - involves getting to next town by train and is 10am. I reckon I could of put 2-3lbs on as the 16's jeans are a bit snugrolleyes Will get some fresh fruit in tomorrow too.

I have filo pastry to use so might make something with that if I can think of a nice vegan low syn recipe with filo - be nice for New Years eve - also allowing a bottle of wine NYE then won't have booze after that.
 
I've been to weigh in and have only put 1/2lb on so not too bad had thought it would be worse!

Consultant had put same on and some others were miffed they had put 2-3lb on or more but we all agreed it had been worth it for Christmas so we are all back on track now:)

I have had a good day so far:

B - 2 weetabix and soya milk, blueberries
L - Jacket spud and beans
D - will be syn free ratatouille and **** rice or SW wedges, with salad or vege
Snacks have been a bowl of fruit salad so far
Might have 1 choc as syns or something else later and got other HEA + B to have yet.

Consultants said to have a flexi eve booze wise for NYE tomorrow then straight back on the plan with tons of water/superfoods next week.
 
I'm joining this week too hopefully, do you write your food diary out for the week then? I think i'm better if i have to concentrate on what i'm eating what kind of diary do you use?

Hiya Hun
I fill in a meal planner which I got online to do my weekly menu then I have a page to a day diary which I then fill in as I eat.
I find it much easier to plan ahead and it helps me stick to it rather than wondering what to have for lunch/dinner all the time etc.

Here is the diary I bought.....

Looks good, my choc intake is increasing which is not good - also going out for lunch tomorrow - Chinese but will have the lower fat option there.

I'm not sure I'll go this week as not keen to go ot local group until our regular consultant is back - gather its not a meeting but just a weigh and go - so don't really fancy trecking all the way up there after work and back in the cold/dark just to get weighed!

Also know I'll of put on going from morning weigh in to evening onerolleyes

I have a meeting until 5.15pm Weds so could go to the meeting near to work at 5.30pm - trouble is with that one if I stay for the meeting it's until 7pm then I'll have to get the train home so would be a late tea - I'll be so hungry.

I'm good at the excuses eh:))

Someone tell me I should get my rear in gear and go to one of them - maybe I should jog up to the local one and back Thurs for some excercise.
 
Oh I'm glad i found this thread as I'm looking to do SW or WW and wanted to know which is best.

I have a book from last year so was going to use that. I dont like joining meetings.

:)

I'm looking to start next week when I'm back in work on tues, so i have tomo to have a look at the plans and get my head round it all.

Why dont you like meeting's? ive never been starting wednesday with lexy so i dont know what they are like
 
Because i will have to go by myself, as my friend is pregnant so she wouldnt want to come with me.

I'm sure that i will be ok weighing myself weekly as i will chart it and get my fiance to weigh me, that why i cant cheat as he will tell me off if i try. :))
 
If anyone is thinking of joining Slimming World then tomorrow Bella Magazine & Woman's Own will have a free membership voucher in the mags.
It means instead of the usual £9.95 joining fee you will only pay £4.95 with a brilliant saving of £5!
x
 
Thanks for this, iv been thinking of re joining and now iv moved house I can walk to my nearest meeting in about 30 seconds lol
Gets me out for a few hours every week too
 
I really want to join. Is anyone a member online?
Also does anyone have any ideas on how to start exercising slowly? I currently do nothing :red
 
You can do it online but I dont think you get all the food optimising books etc. Thats why I prefer to go to a class and get them. I much rather have my books at hand than have to check online for everything.
I am joining again on weds just hope this cold has cleared up by then :(
x
 
I think if you get the 'gold' membership you get the magazine and books, but it costs about £80 for three months :/
