I wear the same every weigh in too. Thin light jogging bottoms and a small light thin t-shirt... so I know i'm weighing true every week and not gaining or losing because of my difference in clothes.

Well, I lost 4lb this week too... so I have now lost my holiday gain, plus half a pound. YAY! Phewww, back in the 18st bracket.
Mind, I was determined to get back to where I was before the holiday, so I was strict as!
Well don Homersmummy it's a lovely feeling to get back into one of the stone brackets. I am so close to the lower end of the 16 stone bracket now (16st 4)- it's positively exciting when I get on the scales I started out my weight loss journey at 19 st 12 and I can't remember the last time I was 16 stone anything!! And hopefully - soon I'll be 15 stone something - woohoo love ff x

It's good to know I'm not the only obsessive compulsive

Cor............you've done well!

Got out of the diet mode at the moment, I think boredom has set in (yet again!) I am trying really hard, but can't seem to follow the diet 100% and I was so positive last week

Weigh in again tomorrow, so wish me luck!

Hello People! SW is going swimmingly! Weighed myself yesterday and it looks like I've already lost 3lbs!! I've been following mix to match mostly and I'm really really enjoying it

I've decided that I really hate those small 400g loafs of wholemeal bread and I wanted to start eating the normal medium sliced loaves and syn the extra. My question is, how many syns will it be minus one healthy extra to have two medium slices of wholemeal bread?

Thanx!

Good luck Antari - hope you get back on track hon - have you tried experimenting with some syn free recipes..it might help?

Well lost 2 1/2lbs

I am obviously eating better than I thought and any naughties are within the syns for the day or week! Other than that I have lost a leg and not noticed

I have had a few G & T's this weekend, but no syns on other days so I really have to write down EVERYTHING this week, no excuses.

Well done on the 2.5 lb loss! Me too I keep a food diary every week - I'm sure that's what helps to keep me on track (that and the fact that I'm getting married on Sunday ) love ff x p.s. no time to update tracker today!

Weighed in yesterday and put on 2lbs! Was ill all last week with the 'flu and taking cough medicine, but I was also very lax in keeping to the diet and not keeping a diary which I have done on line since I started. So, keeping it again from today and hoping the weight comes off as quickly as it went on

Hi all ,

I've started SW a few weeks back. Before that I did WW and lost nearly a stone. Unfortunately I gained half of it again and started SW with 16st7lb. I have been attending the meetings twice so far and lost only 1lb, but thats due to me not sticking to it.

At the moment the inlaws are still living with us, so sticking to a diet is a bit difficult. But I am well determined and by next week we should have the house to ourselves and then I have no excuses .

My meetings are on Thursdays, so I shall know by tomorrow if I've lost anything this week or not. Eventho I doubt it, since I've been a bit naughty last weekend .

So for this week I will sprinkle and hope for a better week.

Went to my meeting last night and...wait for it...wait for it....lost 2lb......wooohhaaaa .

To be honest I was quiet surprised, cause last week after the meeting I went home and had a chicken curry (homepride) with rice and a naan bread. Saturday I went to TGI's and Sunday I had a Chinese....Imagine what I could have lost if I didnt have all that! So this week I'm going to be a goooooood girl (well at least I'm going to try)

Hiya Moonchild

Well done you!! Thats brill. I dont want to put a dampener on your achievement but try and be good this week and drink plenty of water cause I've had this happen to me before and it caught up with me the following week. Hopefully this wont happen to you. I need to get my act together cos I've lost nothing!
