    Mrsowen2b i'm on Extra Easy and i find it really restricting at times but i'm getting the hang of it now, I've got my 1/2 stone sticker last night so i'm chuffed, lost 8lbs in 3 weeks which i'm happy with, 12 weeks to go until the wedding and i just need to keep focussed!

    my group is fantastic! we have the best weight loss in Yorkshire and everyone is supportive of each other and full of ideas. Maybe consider moving groups you just have to turn up at another group and you get transferred over

    ahh maybe i should do that, we dont have any help in ours the sw lady jo just reads out what everyone has lost or gained as the case may be and then does the one who has lost the most and thats it, there is no support at all for if you put weight on, she doesnt try and help. i know what you mean about extra easy being restricted often.

    i really think i will be moving groups

    its worth it our group leader asks us what we have found hard and easy each week and if we need any other help and if we get stuck we have a facebook group where we help each other

    yeah we have a facebook group but it always seems like jo is digging at us for putting on weight like she always rings me if i put on half a pound and makes me feel like a complete failure and if i dont go she is ringing me and telling me that if ive put on weight its better to face it and various things like that it cant be just because i had to start work earlier than usual or that sort of thing it has to be some sort of weight gain.

    ok so lil update on me - ive lost 2lb and im feeling much better about the torch relay on sat, if all else fails ive bought one of the body pulling in things - just need to see if i can run in it without it falling down first (it stops under my bust)
    Hopefully if i can loose another 2 - 3 lbs by saturday i will be a very happy bunny! Albeit with slightly tight white pants but never mind! Once in a lifetime opportunity and im sticking to thinking with that rather than my rolls ha! x

    Happily Married! :) xxx

    I started Slimming world tonight. 13st 4lb. 10 years ago i was 15st and ended up getting down to 11st. The weight coming back on is my addiction to cheese and chocolate! My wedding Dress is a bit tight around the belly. So I've set a 1st 7lb target.
    Any tips on the extra easy plan?

    RedSez plan plan plan! plan your meals and know what your having and all the recipies are great! basically if your having something you think is a little un healthy then pick an SS food to equal it out if you can, i tend to stick to the rule whatever i eat put salad with it

    krissy905 bear in mind that muscle weighs more than fat so some weeks at slimming world you might not lose any weight but thats due to the excercise and don't go to slimming world after you have worked out as you can put up to half a stone after excercise

    I also keep a note of my measurements so I may not lose any weight, but my measurements will change. I do: Bust, Underbust, Belly Button, Hips, Right Thigh and Left Bicep (I'm righ handed).

    I'm very pleased with myself - just come back from a holiday - was a cruise and only put on 2 lbs!

    thanks for the advise ladys i know it will effect weight loss when i start to bulid muscle but as long as i get to my goal and tone at the same time i dont mind the odd gain at sw. i go to sw on wednesday mornings at 9.30 straight after dropping girls off at school so i don't do anything before hand and i even take my breakfast with me to eat after i get weighed.

    i really enjoyed it today when i did it at home and was easier then the class i did monday but they have all been doing it 6 months so are way head next week i will just go at my pace and not try to keep up stop if i need a break and take more water doing it at home to so will soon catch up xx looking forward to doing it again tomorrow x

    I cut down my portion sizes and reduced my snacking, also for both weight and money purposes we stopped going out so much for dinner and stopped getting takeaways. I was not a big drinker but cut alcohol out almost completely and when we do drink i get the lower alcohol wines
    I found the app that you enter in your food intake and exercise really useful
    I also do at least 30 mins exercise on my exercise bike 5 times a week, I used to find excuses not to do it and say I didn't have time but now I make time :)

    Congrats Nic, thats amazing news. You must feel over the moon about it!

    I have another weight loss forum that ive been using to inspire/kick me up the bum, and Ive gone back to filling in a food diary online with SW. H2B is really good too as he checks and makes sure I havent cheated or missed anything off. turns out I missed off the peppers from last nights tea - he said you're doing yourself out of good food there!

    Hi all, can I join in this thread?

    I decided to get my act together on Jan 1st this year, and since then I've lost close to a stone. My weight has got stuck the past month and refuses to go any lower but I'm sticking with it.

    I have cut back my portion sizes slightly and stopped the mindless snacking. I go to Zumba once a week and also walk when I can and use an exercise bike at home most evenings.

    I feel great plus my dress is looking good one, still need to tone my bum, tum and upper arms though

    Can't wait until the day I become Mrs. Johnson :)
