"For breakfast I make the egg muffins off the website. I tend to use a deep baking tray to make portions though rather than a muffin tin. You can make a few brekkies in advance then. I tried overnight oats. Not for me them. I don't go to a group just use the book. Lost 3 stone last year but fell off the wagon due to a short lived health issue. It wouldnt call it a diet its more of an aid to making better more varied food choices. I back on it somewhat this week. Getting my cupboards and fridge in order now all the Xmas goodies have gone.

If anyone else is following SW, feel free to post support and help others achieve their goals. Please no hating...if you have nothing nice to stay, politely leave without posting! " Good for you. The first step is acknowledging that you want to/need to lose weight. I went through the same thing in January 2016 and decided enough was enough and finding size 38 waist jeans/trousers was too much and at 18st I was well overweight. I began light walking (later I started running) and changed my diet by replacing snacks for fruit. By the end of 2016 I was 13st. It's possible. Just keep the focus and don't be disheartened if one week you lose a pound where the previous week you lost 3. Weight loss is weight loss and it's not a competition. Once you lose the weight just be sure to maintain the loss. I found that eating healthy can be fun and it opened my eyes to different foods and flavours. All the very best to you. | |||

"Absolutely no hating from me only admiration for you seeking make a significant change to your life. When I was a highly competetive athlete, I used to see over-weight people out training and would wonder why they bothered now, having been Ill for many years with a heart condition, and knowing how much of a struggle it is to get back to fittness, I have nothing but respect for anyone who is prepare to take on that challenge. Good luck OP!" Thank you hun. I'm sorry to hear you're unwell. It must be really tough having been so active xxx | |||

"I was thinking about it mainly for my daughter...I was always very slim as a teen but she seems to have developed faster and has been gaining weight...so I thought if I did it with her it wouldn't do me any harm and would help her maybe set up for a healthy way of choosing when it comes to food. Don't get me wrong she isn't massively over weight but I don't want her heading down that road. Although I've stopped buying snacks at home she spends half the time with her dad and it's take aways and chips and whatever else she wants when there." My mum has done the same. The more support the better. For anyone that kissed it, I have a Kik support group if anyone would like to join x | |||

"I'm tired of being unhappy in my own body, tired of lacking confidence and tired of moaning about my weight so today I bit the bullet and joined Slimming World. I don't want my son to be known as the boy with the fat mum. I want to be around to see him grow up and I don't want to get to the point where I need the nhs to try and fix me when their money is desperately needed for more important things. If anyone else is following SW, feel free to post support and help others achieve their goals. Please no hating...if you have nothing nice to stay, politely leave without posting! How are you doing on Slimming world now. It’s been a few weeks since you joined. Is it suiting you? " | |||

"I did SW online took Me 3yrs but I lost 8stone (yes I was a fat bugger) got down to 16 stone and felt great Sadly my will power crumbled and I've managed to put 6stone back on so it's back to being a fat git which I am bloody annoyed about and my joints are starting to ache and things are starting to rub I've decided to rejoin and start again as I found once into it things were quite easy and I never felt hungry This time I'm considering joining a group but I'm shy and worried I will be the biggest person there and that's putting me off no end I'm thinking a group may help but at the same time I'm worried what people might think of my excessive middle age and a bit spread" Groups are usually full of women. They love it when a man shows up who is sympathetic to their goal. You're all in the same boat. Do it. | |||

On Slimming World you're allowed carbs such as rice, pasta and potatoes as "free" (unmeasured) foods. Bread, oats, cereals are measured. I lost 3 stone from including carbs in my diet for once and don't feel at all deprived. Cutting carbs from my diet would just be unrealistic for me. | |||

"So I commented right at the beginning of this thread, weeks and weeks ago saying I was considering joining Slimming World. I kept it a bit quiet but I did join. 4 weeks in I've lost 6lb!!! It's been a bit of a struggle because even though I've been completely on plan because of medication and health problems first two weeks I didn't lose any weight at all and obviously I was devastated but I've stuck with it and it's slowly coming off. " Well done,stick at it. Apparantly if you loose a lot of weight quickly your more likely to put it back on | |||

"I’ve lost 1/2 stone in 5 weeks, which also takes into consideration the 2lb gain I had one week. Overall I’m really pleased as I haven’t had to make too many changes to my usual eating habits. One thing I have noticed was how much I used to snack / pick at food." Yes I understand exactly what you mean and I find now, I'm more conscious of what I eat where as before if it was there I would eat it! whether I was hungry or not. | |||

If anyone else is following SW, feel free to post support and help others achieve their goals. Please no hating...if you have nothing nice to stay, politely leave without posting! " I was pretty fat.... I lost the weight... Do it for your own reasons. I wanted to be mentally healthy and have the agility/strength/endurance to start playing sports and achieve goals. Feeling truely happy with yourself isn't about looking good in other people's eyes... It's about leaving them behind on the floor gasping for air as you jog allong happy.. It's simply fun and balances your brain. It's not a 3 month plan. It's a lifestyle change.... I wouldn't expect to have a partner who was into it like me. I don't feel I am forcing myself. Easy diet plan is just quitting all things with high shugar content forever. Easy exercise plan is 40 mins cardio every day.. (make it a hike)...some months later you can jog that I just did those 2 things 2 years ago and slowly increased. I had extreamly bad mental health problems and had a really horrible looking body. I had real issues simply existing. I kinda relate to people in the same situation. It's more about taking baby steps gradually if your physicly/mentally Not right Daily consistency... Small but permanent changes... Picking yourself up from failure if you go wrong... | |||

One thing I have noticed was how much I used to snack / pick at food." I gained half a stone by eating healthy and doing cardio every day. But before I had a really huge abdomen/tits/belly My arms and legs and arse were skinny and weak... The exercise and diet made me gain weight if anything... "The scales lie" The best way to test is just stand in mirror and try to grab the wobbly bits to see how much it is... Muscle mass could add to the weight in the scales It's not the best indicator... You can also cut weight in unhealthy ways like fighters and it just comes back in days | |||

"I've been back on it since mid way through last week. And lost 3 and a half this week. Hoping for the same this week " Just a note , to my calculations, most people can only lose 1 to 1 half pounds of fat per 7 days Weight loss above 1.5 is almost certainly to be water, glycogen and or protein/muscle x 780 g is 7000 cals Or 1000 cals per day Or 110 grams of fat a day A 1000 cal deficit a day is hard To lose 500 g of fat per week Each day a deficit of 630 cal or 70 g fat There will always be exceptions but aiming for more than 500g weekly would end up in disappoint for most The thing is the 500 g is hard and an amazing achievement 52 of them adds up to over 3 stone | |||

"How we all doing? My loss has been slow and steady but fits in with my life style. Total loss so far is 10.5 lb and first time last week two people had noticed. " Brilliant! Imagine carrying a backpack around all day with 5 bags of sugar in it. It makes a difference. Other people only notice when it's obvious. They won't want to ask if you've lost weight when you haven't, as you may be offended. | |||

"I keep thinking i should rejoin. But i didnt feel supported much in my group. Quite clicky. Other locals groups have the same leader or times dont work out :/ Thing is i know what i have to do just need a kick and to be watched over lol " Can you do it online? Some people have done threads before, you could post your losses (or gains!) every week. Public shame. | |||

Most are syn free or low in syns. You should be able to find the syn values on the fb group. Sw told them to take the syns off the recipes as they aren't officially affiliated with them. | |||
