thinking of joining

Hi white yes of course you can join us the more the merrier.

I post a thread like the one below ready for Monday, we all get weighed at different times so the thread runs all week.

We all do our own thing, so go with whatever suits you.
You can use the thread to register weight loss/gain, and to support each other.

Good luck.

right - be brilliant to get into some of my clothes - it is so hard though

I weigh in on Gransnet but I am doing Slimming Wrld which is the only thing that has ever worked for me - its just a healthy eating plan very easy very sensible and you get to eat lots and not go hungry.

My main problem is that things get sabotaged so easily like today for instance my diet has been ---

breakfast - porridge with skimmed milk and sweetener
LUNCH Pitta bread with low fat hummous tomato and cucumber
Supper - Chicken cooked in orange juice and herbs boiled new spuds tiny lump of butter peas and sugar snap then fat free yogurt and fresh strawberries and tayberries glas of wine

All fine I think then sat here as DH came up with coffee and a bowl of crisps - kindly sharing his that he bought to watCh the football - I haven't an ounce of willpower so scoffed the lot!

white I also do Slimming World, and your menu sounds like SW Extra Easy.

I have tried all the diets you can imagine and failed, but SW is healthy eating and you are never hungry, when I started I thought this cant work but it does.

right I will try that then - there is group somewhere near me I think

SW has an excellent website which will tell you where your nearest groups are.

May I ask a question, please? Something that puzzles me — if you never feel hungry, how do you know when to eat? Perhaps I am just being too literal in interpreting what some people are saying. It's just that I often feel hungry. I ate breakfast less than two hours ago and I feel a little bit hungry now, just peckish. I'll wait a bit before I eat again. This happens about six times a day. I can't imagine never feeling hungry.

Bags I often don't feel hungry but eat because it is a mealtime or because I am bored. I never feel hungry in the mornings and only eat a very small breakfast because I have to eat with my meds but if I didn't I wouldn't feel hungry until about 1130.

Thanks, alison. I've often felt it was a nuisance to feel hungry when I get up, but maybe it isn't. DH doesn't want to eat breakfast until the middle of the day and often goes without lunch, but he is overweight. It's very puzzling.

I have a friend who lives on her own and now only eats when she feels hungry and she has lost loads of weight but it is more difficult when you live with someone.
