How do you get on with Speed Soup Pom?? I made one batch months ago & loved the stuff. It was the 12 SS soup. I ate it everyday for lunch & stuck to plan elsewhere & lost zilch. Was a bit gutted & it's made me aprehensive to make some more...

She's only taking off a further 2.5mg for now, but I am grateful for ANY reduction Bev. She took the dosage 2.5mg back in February as the steroid rages were just intolerable, so this will make the overall reduction 5mg with another 5mg off in May which brings me back to my summer maintainence dose.
It won't make a huge deal of difference to my weight loss, but "every little helps" as the advert says
- and at least I will be at less of a risk of being divorced for spousal abuse - poor old Al really does get it in the neck in winter

Hey hun. Just take it 1 meal at a time. Try not to think you HAVE to stick to it 100% every day all the time just think 1 meal in front, then after that good meal I guarantee you'll feel better for doing it and then concentrate on the next meal. And So on. It always works for me when I can't get back on it xx

I agree with Lou. Just take it one meal at a time for now. When that feels OK then take it up to one day at a time - you'll be back in the swing of things before you know it!
I also have medical problems that mean weight loss and maintainence can be a real challenge for me sometimes, so I understand it can be tough to stay focussed. Just keep plugging away at it a meal at a time and come on here for a good old moan on bad days...... we are all here too support each other through the good and the bad to our personal goals :bighug:

Well a STS on the scales this morning (better than expected TBH). HOWEVER, I am amazed at how much body fat I have dropped in the last 9 days (37.7% down to 35.3%) and how many inches lost as well (2.5 inches overall) so upping the anti with the exercise is definitely starting to show results - even if it's not on the scales
Onwards and downwards ladies - I'm off the step this week but aiming to be back there next Friday so look out! Good luck to us all this week.

Sorry I've been AWOL for a little while, I've only gained over the last 4 weeks even though I've been fairly on plan and just wanted to hide from the world, and have been concentrating on my running.
Anyway, I talked to my C and called target for now to stop me stessing over the last half stone I have to lose.

I don't think the one I make is 12 SS soup. Is that the one with serious quantities of various beans in?
I do the SW Superspeed tomato soup that I found on Minis but adapted the recipe as it was far too thick and beany for me.
I love it - but I don't have it everyday. I alternate it with one of my speedy veg soups (I have 3 or 4 that I make) and I have continued to lose - albeit at my tortoise pace.
I don't think it has slowed my weight loss as I've always had soups for lunch and the tomato one was a late addition only about 3 or 4 months ago.
The recipe is here if you want it.
My adaptation is to add 500ml of passata as well - as I found the predominant taste was baked beans otherwise
The last time I made it I also added an extra 1/2 pt of water as it was just too thick for me.

Kate - I think that is a very sensible decision. I got like this last September when I'd been stuck for 6 weeks losing and gaining the same 3 lbs.
So I maintained for October, hit it again in Novemeber and whoosh I lost the last 6 lbs in record speed (well at least for me it was!).
Your BMI is already pretty good at 22.2 so there is deffo no need to fret - but losing the last half stone will definitely not be so easy.
It will happen . . . when it happens.
:hug99: and well done for declaring target. Now to maintain . . .
