Petite people who are on slimming world to stay healthy

[Lucylu79]

Hiya just had a quick read of ur blog ur all doing so well can I ask if u r mostly doing EE? I did slimming world a long time ago and lost a bit doing red & green days, il be honest it was mostly green days ha and now I'm doin EE it's seems to be coming off slower? Any advice? Xxx

Hiya!

I used to do lots of green but then I'd find some days I'd just eat too many carbs. I do EE some days but have less carbs on my plate edging more towards success express (2/3rds sf instead of the 1/3) but mainly I do red days.

I found less carbs helped get me to target and for keeping it off. Hope that helps!

Hi lola. I started off at 10.4 and got once down to 8.6 but hovering around 8.13 now. I would like to lose before the dreaded C*****mas season!! But really struggling to be motivated! Too many weekend naughty treats!

I always weighed around 9st and at my height (4ft11) it put me at a size 10/12, I then got pregnant and went up up up! I joined Sw when my little one was 6 weeks old weighing in at 11st, I got to target of 8st 2 in march where I've hovered ever since xx

Haha ur tiny tho girlie! I'd love to be back in the 8 stones! Iv just been for a Chinese had a plan to just have boiled rice and chicken black pepper but when there's lots of ppl I end up picking on all the snacky bits the syns soon add up dont they!

I do try to start every day as a red day but I always ends up EE by tea time hehe did u never try green days? I did them 1st time round years ago but now I realise that many carbs can't be too good! Do u have a food diary on here chick?

I dont have a diary no..i should start one really but come fri sat and sun it would be embarrassing!!! Lol. And ppl would say no wonder why im not losing!

Ive never done green days. Too many carbs i think. I may try a few red days but i think they include too much meat. I try and eat more quorn etc as i dnt think a lot of meat can be good for us either!

Hi I've not read all the posts but scanned through a little! I'm new to SW, only started saturday and am doing it from home. I'm petite as well, 5ft and weigh just under 9st which is the heaviest I've ever been! Probably only a year ago I would always be hover around 8st so want to get at least back down to that!
