Ok thanks star girl I think my problem was I was eating massive portions with no veg or salad. Xx

I think the fruit and veg is key to this diet, the more you can incorporate the better you will do. For example every meal I make I try to get in peppers, courgette, aubergine, spinach, onion and tomatoes as my standard base, and then also add carrots, butternut squash, leeks, parsnips, swede etc whenever I can. That's the basis for most of my meals so pasta dishes, curries, casseroles, ragu, anything really :)
 
Hi, my names becky. I started slimming world last week so im new to all this. hoping.to lose 2 stone IF I can stick to it. im a biiiig chocolate fan haha!
 
Hi Everyone,

My name's Deb and I've been on this site for a few years now from time to time when I've needed to loose a few pounds.
I've not got loads to loose but have found SW works for me anytime I need to drop that chunky layer we sometimes get after eating freely for quite a while.
I started back on 6th Jan and although my weight can fluctuate massively within the space of a few hours I'm quite happy so far. I've been eating pretty well during the week and saving most of my syns for the weekend (I don't drink at all but like to go out and eat with friends wthout worrying about it too much). It's definately a slower way to loose weight for me personally (and if i'm up to date on things it's no longer recommended by SW) but it works for me.


I'm hoping to be a more active and postive member of the site and look forward to getting know you all :)

I am doing extra easy, and so far im finding it quite easy! Im worried though once my determination wears off i'll go way off track! First weigh in tonight so i'll find out how ive done. Ive been doing the 30 day shred as well alongside slimming world!

I have a good group of friends i go with too, so hopefully we can all encourage each other! How long have you been doing it? xx

Good luck for tonight! What's the 30 day shred??!! X

Not at all :) thank you for telling me!

I don't do well with exercise DVDs. I just sit on the sofa and watch them with a cuppa in one hand and a biscuit in the other... I'm far better off going to a class!

Hi I'm a newbie!!!

4.5st to lose before I want to have another baby. My 8 month old son is keeping me on my toes right now but I definitely have "I don't want to be a fat mummy" syndrome!

Every time I feel like going overboard on syns I have him to look at and remember why I'm doing this :)
