So i've been weighed in and I know a few others have so this post is here to help if you feel that chocolate craving coming on or are feeling you need a bit of help.

I've joined Weightwatchers so if anyone has any tips about points etc that would be great!

May the fat fighting begin - sign up here

Fab idea sarah!!

I have lost the weight now but seriously struggling to keep it off! I have put on 3lbs and really want to budge it again.

Muesli(with lots of added dried fruit) and yoghurts are my diet tip!

Great Idea, I really need to loose some more weight. Have managed to loose 4 stone but another couple would be great. Anything to keep me off the chocolate would be good!

I'm another fat fighter!!!!!
Got weighed last night and i've got a hell of a long way to go, my first target is to lose 20lbs which is 10% of current weight

.

I've got a real sweet tooth so i always keep Cadbury's treat size bars which are 1.5 ww points each, or Curly Wurly's are 2.5 points and if you freeze them it makes them last longer, plus it always takes ages to find them in the bloody freezer so i sometimes give up and go without!!!
Also, Mulllerlight's are fab to freeze too, makes it feel more like a pud. Oh and they're only 1.5 points each!!

I am such a weightwatchers points nerd!!!
Sorry

Good luck to everyone trying to lose weight

Danone activias are fab for filling you up and if you are an IBS sufferer like me - it kills two birds with one stone! lol x

just another one to add to this.

Nicola if you join weight watchers at the moment there not doing free registration anymore but if you sign up doing the monthly pass there'll give you free registration.

i.e

registration is £9.00 - meeting fee (weekly) £5.50 = £14.50
Monthly pass = £17.95 for the month

good luck girls xx

I am going to do slimming world once Smurfy has arrived! I find ww too fidly and can't be arsed with counting points!!
My biggest problem is finding time to exercise, will be even worse after Smurfy arrives!!

Make sure you do before, during and after pics!!

Can't drink anything fizzy, makes me burp like a bloke!! Not pretty

LOL Sarah, you are funny.

I drink about 4/5 cans of diet coke a day. I am addicted to it. There are always loads in stock in our fridge.
If I'm visiting someone I know who dont have it I take my own.
If I go without for any reason, I get a bit fidgety.

On diet tips. it has to be Mullerlight yogurts.
Jacket spud with No butter.
Quorn sausages and burgers taste great and are very low in fat. So you dont have to feel left out at BBQ's.
And salads on the side with most meals as with WW thats free.

No added sugar jellies are fab too!

Also I peel and chop a few carrots and put them in a tub in the fridge so everytime I feel like snacking, I grab a stick of carrot.

good tips girls, do you just ask for the monthly pass then when you join sarah?? Terry says he's doing the diet with me (but not coming to be weighed!!)

Caroline

I am a Pepsi Max addict too. I sent Gareth out to get me a bottle the day after Bronwyn's C section!!! I was craving the stuff!!! We had 2 bottles hidden under the hopsital bed!!

Quorn sausages are nice, I am a veggie and live on them. You will need to dry fry them with that spray or sub a little olive oil over them as if you bake them they can dry out. The same goes for the burgers, they are fab BBQ'ed!
