i'm a slimming world veteran, on the four seperate occasions i've joined i've lost a total of 4 stone. each time i left for various reasons and put back on the weight i had lost previously.
as i cant afford to join i've been looking through my most recent books and i've decided to start again but on my own not at group.
i hope you don't mind me joining this hopefully we can support each other

i'll weigh myself in the morning and put a ticker on my posts.

just saw that you can't afford to join - did you know that your doctor can do a referral to any slimming class of your choice for you and the NHS pays for it - you get 12weeks worth of vouchers. They will then pay for the next 12 weeks after that if you have lost a certain amount of weight in the first 12weeks and this continues once you lose weight. This is what I'm doing - joined last week.

Oh btw can I join you girls too please?

Hi all - can I join in too............been going to SW since July and lost 1st 8lb so far doing extra easy but am starting to struggle - winter is here and want comfort food, etc! Weigh-in in the morning

NatalieW · Nov 17th, 2009, 07:22 AM

I've slipped off the scales! whoops.

I stopped going because I can't afford it, I can't get the doctor to give me vouchers because my BMI isn't that high.

I will get back on the horse so to speak, better day for food today too!

loonylamb · Nov 17th, 2009, 17:39 PM

hi donna 35, I've tried that with g.p. and because they have their own weight loss programme, they don't do the referral scheme, I did put myself on the waiting list for the weight loss programme and was on 4 months and never got started so bit annoyed but I shall plow on, on my own but with the support of you girlies

not a bad first day but every time i start on sw my mind goes mad and wants so much food it's nuts

yet for past few weeks been not eating huge amounts and have coped with that quite well, must be because I know I can eat loads on sw and lose weight.

loonylamb · Nov 22nd, 2009, 18:43 PM

hi all, so how has everyone been getting on this week,if it's any consellation I've been doing crap, first day was ok then got a bit of bad news fell off the wagon and done my usual eating cos I was stressed

I've realised that planning is the key so I've rearranged all cupboards, fridge and freezer so I know what I've got, I've been through my slimming world recipe books and picked things I like to eat so I'm making the list tomorrow and going shopping for the week to start tuesday so hopefully will be posting a big loss the following week

Donna35 · Nov 23rd, 2009, 08:02 AM

How's everyone doing so far? I've lost 4.5pounds in the first week which is good but have a long way to go. Need to get off my ass and start exercising too to shift more of it...

hello girlies, going ok so far this week but it's taking a really long time to get used to the taste of sweetner again, I hate the aftertaste especially as it makes me thirsty, really hate the aspartame based ones for drinks but most of the sweetners are this so I'll have to get used to it I suppose, no pain no gain.
