Another pound down this week, just half a pound left to my target which will hopefully come next week & less than 6 months in Slimming World.
Wish I'd know about this wonderful way of life a long time ago cos it's really working for me :-)

I had much the same (30lbs) to lose & tbh it seemed v.daunting in the begining but every pound & half pound adds up & before you know it you're within reach of your target & that's a great feeling ;-)

Yeah, gonna aim for another stone for my wedding in March, that's the weight I would have been in my late teens, early twenties but if I fall anywhere between my target now & that extra stone I'll happy.
Gonna relax & enjoy being on target for awhile though ;-)

Enjoy your hols!!!

I actually ordered my dress back in Feb before I started Slimming World, I never thought I would get here so quick. I now have to get my dress taken in 2, possibly 3 dress sizes!!!
A good complaint though :-D

arandale

Well done you Ms2011 and the best of luck.

Thank you both for the welcome. Just in from work and had dinner which was lovely, finding it hard to get my head round all the food i can have.

I have been doing slimming world now for four weeks and have lost a decent 5 pounds (Taking into consideration that I have been all over the place since I started! New job, leaving party for old job etc!)

But one thing I just cant get my head around is that a banana is superfree, but cooking it turns it into 5 syns! :O
I made some no flour banana pancakes this morning that I found on a fitness website and thought this was the best thing ever! Until I remembered cooked fruit is high syn.

Yeah I really that annoyed me too no more smoothies and the one fruit that you have to eat cooked is rhubarb which I love they say all fruit is free but youre not gonna eat raw rhubarb bleugh! anyway is is the reasoning behind it, because it becomes less high satiety when cooked of blended. Think how long it takes to eat one apple, now think how much fruit you would need to blend to make a smoothie and the smoothie would be less filling than if you ate each of the pieces of fruit in their raw state. Hope that helps

MrVestek

It's mainly to do with the body having to work at digesting the food when it's in it's natural state (Apples etc) whereas when it's in a smoothie all the work has already been done and your body just absorbs the sugars etc from it.

Hi guys,

Has anyone done the Scan Bran challenge, we're doing it this week. Anyone have any good recipe ideas?

You still need to do *some* weighing and measuring. ;-)

Got nominated for woman of the year...I didnt win...but it was nice to be nominated.

3rd weigh in since getting to target and im still there...just about. Im down to thelowest pound. ..so that'll get me through to Sept when I'll reset my target.

So, so far so good

Guys, do you know where I would find a list of free foods, for example yogurts, mullier rice, mug shots? I seen them on the table at the meeting but never took note - thanks xxx

www.slimmingworld.ie

There should be a PIN on your book from when you registered. Register on the site and once you log in you have a plethora of tools at your beck and call to use for exactly that.

There's also loads of recepies for you to try on there too. It really is a good resource. Also if you have a smartphone download the 'A taste of slimming world' app as it's the same thing but in a mobile app.

Very handy stuff especially for when wandering around the supermarket wondering what you can buy.
