My main trouble is my new clothes I bought, the tops are all the smallest oasis did so a 10 I think but some already hang off my shoulders being petite that I am, I think in my head loosing more would be a total waste of clothes and money!

Were you not told how to maintain? The recommended advice is to up your hex's until you stop losing. I think I used to eat 3 per day. Cereal, pitta and a hifi or similar. I was also told to up my syns to 20 per day when I went down to 7 st 12 (target was 8 st 3).
Be cautious with that though, as it was the beginning of the end for me!
Hex b could be used for olive oil or some dried fruit?
Sorry to keep butting in! It's just that your story sounds so familiar!
One last thing!! With respect to thighs....I'm quite a muscular build and am always envious of other people's thinner legs .
Good luck with your journey - am sure you will achieve your goal.
Lucylu79 said:Hi Girlies, how are we all?
Finding myself in a good place today, I've sneakily weighed myself this morning and i'm finally showing to be the same the fri before I went on hol. If thats right I only need to lose what I would of gained in the 1st week off plan.
If i've lost 2lbs i'll be a happy bunny with 2lbs more to go to get rid of this 5lb's of pure over induldence!
Definately feeling better around the tummy area and once again my trousers are hanging off me. Just hope the scales show the same!
Hello All,
Hoping i can join in this thread. I did SW at home last year and went from 8st 8lbs to 7st 9lbs. Giving me (according to the nhs website) a healthy normal BMI of 19.6 as im 5'2". I say according to the NHS as the SW calculator is the only one i can find that seems to say different whereby it says this would make me underweight, it seems incorrect compared to the NHS one and all others I have checked. Just before i get an anorexic comments which I certainly am not! Anyways I had an operation which left me bedbound and unable to workout for months, along with people bringing me get well chocs i just got totally out of SW and after recently getting a little too comfortable moving in with my bf and eating the same portions as him im now 9st 4lbs!! (was 9st 6lbs but have lost 4lbs in my first week!) Im the biggest ive ever been in my life ive never been out of the 8's. The crunch came when getting ready for a night out i realised non of my 'skinny' jeans fit me anymore, ive been wearing my leggings far too much and i guess its a case of loose weight or throw out all my clothes and buy them all again 2 sizes bigger which i cant afford to do!!
So anyways im feeling it really hard to get back into but i kno it works and i can do it as i did it last time, hoping i can get some support form everyone on here and even typing this is taking my mind off food. I have a really sweet tooth, used to eat 4 choc bars or cakes a day!! So any tips on low syn chocs are always helpful to me!

Hi!!!!
Kate's answered your question, i'm not going to attempt to pretend I understand any of it!
Girls, I lost the 2lb's that I hoped I had and i've done something that i'm now not sure about....I lowered my target! Eeekk I hope i'm not being too adventurous at 7.12 but I really want to try.
Hopefully a new target will keep me focused, it was nice going for free albeit a few weeks!
