Personally I think the scales are all in conspiracy Jo...
But you really don't have anything to worry about...target is all about finding our balance to just stay within the range. You're doing very well.
How are you target members doing out there?

Well I got to target just before xmas, had a bit of a gain lost it, back in target. Then it was my birthday had a 10lb beast of a gain! That was about 4 weeks ago, lost 1.5lb then a fortnight of maintains. Im really struggling to shift it to get back into target, I've got complacent. How do you get out of a complacent rut?

Sorry to hear you're struggling...the only thing I know is 'back to basics'!! I've always kept a food diary so that helps for looking back at what worked before.
One thing I've learnt is if I take my finger off the plan, back comes the pounds!

Hiya everyone just wondering if any of you can help with some tips am a diamond target member I have never had a problem if anything iv always just been under my target but since Christmas iv put 4-5 lbs on that's really not like me I could always go on holiday and not have a gain same on a weekend Iv even went and had my contraceptive inplant taken out thinking maybe that had something to do with it as I only had that in since November but still no change! The only thing I can think of is I started the gym and I Proberly go 3 or 4 times a week but i can't of gained 5lbs to muscle already can I? I write everything down I always have done and am not eating anything different to what I have for the last 3 years it's really getting me down in the dumps iv tried doing SP weeks but the scales just don't move iv come so far iv lost 6 1/2 stone I love my diet all the foods I just don't understand my body just now sorry for my bit moan I just need this 5lbs of any ideas that I haven't already had a bash at

Kirsty perhaps if you are going to the gym a lot you may need more food (healthy extras) to fuel the exercise. Not extra syns but extra healthy food, free or superfree food. Don't let it get you down its fantastic you have lots 6.5stones. Have a chat to your consultant if you go to a class they may have ideas. Make sure you also drink 2 litres of water each and every days, it can make a REAL difference! Good Luck

I didn't weigh in this week... stayed home. I'm still not happy about the new group scales and them weighing me heavier.

Kirsty I think it's good to try those things and see if they help you...keep us posted!
Jo...good idea using home scales...I'd like to do that every week at the moment!!
Debs...:bliss:great news that you're now at target!! well done for losing 4st 13lbs!
Maybe try adding in some extra hex's rather than syns (says she!) joking aside...they do make meals more flexible to have more hex's!!

I do green plan too and so we can have 2xhexA & 2xhexB...per day. I think once we reach target we're encouraged to have more of those rather than using extra syns. Personally I don't worry at all how many Hex's I'm using...just makes our meals more interesting. Try upping them and see how you go and if it affects your weight.
