Congrats Areas that's brilliant! Takes forever for your brain to catch up with your body. Mine's slowly coming around. It's weird, sometimes I'm super happy with how I'm looking and other times I'm scolding how fat I am. Any tips on how to speed up/get my brain to come around?I have tried every brand of airfryer going, and I time and time again I go back to the Tefal Actifry, nothing else comes close.
Thanks for the recommendation, looking at a 1L one it's £240 on Amazon, is that the general price, and is it good for 1-2 people?December has 31 days, minus my 4 parties, 2 dinners, 4 extras. Looks like it's all down to my 21 on plan days whether I can keep on trying or give up.
That's a brilliant attitude. Penn's definitely right to worry about the in-between days and not the big nights out. It's the everyday choices that'll get us! I've budgeted 5lbs gain over Xmas, so it's motivating me to eat healthy now

Scribbler100 sweet buy! Let us know how u get on with the new airfryer
That's brilliant Shelli2 you pulled it back, going extra hardcore and coming out like nothing happened
Getting a size down before Xmas must be a great feeling! Plus you'll remember how they used to fit. Great stuff. Will u do anything to replace the long walks, gym maybe? Not ideal but jaysus it's torrential outside! Plus with the holidays they'll be nearly empty :P
I lost 3.5lbs! I've been in a funk these last few weeks, like maintain, down 0.5 etc so it's nice to pass the 75lb lost mark and get a new award!

Awww! If you're doing well on the plan by yourself, then you don't need group. It's there for motivation, support, accountability, bit of craic and recipe ideas. If u have all those then sure, try it by yourself (you'll be doing that when at target most of the time ) If ya start gaining for a few weeks then it'd be time to go again, but until then (without sounding too dramatic) you've got SW inside you!
If it's just a temp target, just keep going, but it is good to have a number, or practical goal (like a size dress) to aim for. You're doing great! So kick some butt this week 0 -

Well done, Ally Pally, managing to stay on plan and progress without having to attend group. I couldn't resist showing up for the weigh-in where I achieved my target. That said, this thread does feel very much like an actual group with lots of support and advice to be had on strategies, recipes etc.
Welcome never_mind! Any time you feel ready to start is a good time. I started on October 10th and despite the odd fall from grace, have lost 13.5lbs to date. The SW plan works really well and with a bit of planning you need never be hungry.
With Christmas coming, there is lots of information and support in group and online around which foods/drinks are massively calorific and which ones would be more plan-friendly. The main thing is you will be able to make informed choices one way or the other.
SozBbz has given some great advice above. Regarding alcohol, I have had to cut back my consumption, NOT rule it out. When the weight starts coming off, you will feel encouraged to pause and actively decide whether you want another pint more than you want to be down a couple of pounds next week. The odd slip won't undo all your good work, but sticking to the plan will yield good results more quickly. You can take it at your own pace, but you'll be moving in the right direction.0 -

Ah man, pints absolute destroy weight loss! I'm 6 days strictly on plan + 1 night boozing = maintain at best
Consider ordering gin and sparkling water (I don't trust bartenders to know/have diet tonic water) but damn, Gin is awful. Meant I barely drank! But doing a mixer, alcohol + mixer, mixer, alcohol + mixer pacing yourself works well - if you scrimp on syns earlier in the day you could have 4 alcoholic drinks and still be on plan! I do rum and diet coke.
Great on ya never_mind for joining SW before Xmas, it'll really, really help out getting you in the right direction before the gorging happens all around you!0 -
