  • Ended up going for an indian at lunchtime think between the curry sauce, the pakora and the naan bread I have had around 25 syns - not much fun. But hey I had only used 5 for the week, so now I've used 30, still got another 40 to play with. At least I am having a green day and I stuck to vegetable curry with boiled rice

    So much for my nice healthly salad
  • Already doing the flexi-syns bit Carol make sure you are good with the other 40 you did so well this week.

    Sorry you are suffering Val that does'nt sound like fun at all but will help with the weightloss tho' I got married in Vegas too
  • I had frozen asda curry 5.5 syns (luckily only like rubbish curry. ) Don't worry if you go over your syn allowance a bit Carol. Cat is right it is flexi syns. You just count them then carry on with your normal daily amount.
  • Just added my weight loss on the slimming world website, on current form I could weigh what I want by the 16th August 2004. Nice dream, think once i put in a couple of more weeks, it will become a bit more realistic.

    I like the idea of flexible syns, but I am going to try and cut back on the number of syns I have for the rest of the week. Mostly I use them for sauces to put on meat and vegs and there are loads of free ones of those
  • i worked out my club ten and ill not hit that until i hit 15 stone god thats so far away but only two pound until i get my half stone thats the one draw back with being the biggest at my group itll take me longer to hit those targets or ill just have to work twice as hard the only good thing is that they are all going on holidays and im not so ill sort of catch up with them then well six stone 2 pound to go I WILL GET THERE

  • i think you'll find that the bigger you are the faster you lose Kirsty those skinnier lizzies have a harder time getting it off.
  • There is more chance you will lose every week ( even if you mess up) if you are the biggest in the group ( which I certainly am!) so you can be superior In my group of 4 who go to sw the thinnest has got their 10% first but I am only 4.5 to go.
  • now ladies that is what i like to hear there are some people who need a smirk wiped off their faces thanx

  • Just got back from Slimming World. Have lost 2lb this week (still a lb to go before I lose the 3lb I put on - lol). I am pleased with this as I am having what my leader calls a star week (Time of the Month) - lol.
  • I'm already dreading my weigh in. Stupid wine
  • im dreading it to veggie cause ive been so good and getting loads of exercise and if ive not lost that three pound i think ill freak and its still only tuesday and ive got two more days to work myself into a panic about it
    kirsty
  • hey super as far as ive been told you tend to put weight on during tom so youve probably already shifted that pound and more well done anyway
    kirsty
  • I'm with you Veggie, lets blame it on the boogie, oops sorry the wine. Perhaps if I had gone booging after drinking it all, I might have lots some weight. Will not be a happy bunny until I have stood on those scales tomorrow night, am not looking forward to it at all
  • You'll be fine Next week we will all be better (and thinner )
  • Here's to next week
