Hi i have just read first post and can relate to it so much.

I joined SW back in 2009 and did well, i just got bored and fell off the wagon so to say.

I joined back up back in April and i am on the EE plan. its so much easier than i thought it would be! (originally i did red and green days and couldn't get head round EE when i saw it!)

I may take the bit where you have asked your OH not to say 'i love you no matter what your size'. I know he loves me no matter what my size and is fully supportive of me loosing weight but this time i want it to be the last. I have asked him to support me in finding my confidence and inner happiness, even stated i might get the leather bike gear out again, if i gain enough confidence and ride on the back of his bike again. He's so excited with that thought that 4-5 weeks in he's asking if i am ready yet!!

I also love the amount of support and ideas this forum has so will be making this a live time change!

So good luck to everyone on their journeys!

Hi everyone! Busy busy yesterday so didn't get on last night!

In answer to using my syns, I Syn every cup of tea for a 1/2 Syn, I don't use the milk as one of my hex's, dash of gravy on my veg, scrapping of butter on my toast if I have it, splash of milk in my mash, sprinkling of cheese in my mash and not used as a hex, but of salad creme with my jacket potato, bit of tom sauce with frylight fried eggs, sometimes (like today!) I use a non fat free yogurt with strawberries for my breakfast as planing a syn free dinner and no choc or biscuits in the house, or a couple of biscuits dunked in my tea when the kids are in bed go down well

i do EE, and stick to it for now, think ill mix it up a bit when the weight loss slows down but for now I am so stuck on EE I think I'd just confuse myself with Green or red! Lol!

how is everyone doing today? xxx

I misses this this morning!! Sorry!! Welcome Minofthemix!

We are all a friendly bunch and help each other out no bounds! My boyf is super supportive, went and bought the kids a McDonalds for lunch and instead of coming back with something for me and for me to get grumpy at him for it, or for him coming back with nothing and me being grumpy because I had to miss out he also drove to the other side of town to a place that sells jacket potatoes and a help yourself salad bar and bought me one home, with cheese and piled high with salad! Lol! Love him!

Feel free to share your highs and lows and anything else you want to get off your chest, a good rant always makes me feel better!

My motto on this thread is - we CAN do it, we WILL do it! xxx
