Thursday 28 October group results:

First of all, well done to those that came and especially to those that stayed to group this week. I am very aware that live is hectic at times and that we can't always stay to group, however results have shown that those that do bother to stay are doing generally much better with their weight loss journey then to those that don't bother to stay. If it isn't working for you, you will need to ask yourself why - Food Optimising hasn't generally changed (only for the better by giving you more choices), so what is happening in your life right now?
Your weight does matter to me too you know.......We or I can't help if you run away.

Total weight loss for the 10.00 am group is: 29 lbs
Total weight gain for the 10.00 am group is: 13.5 lbs

Total weight loss for the evening session is: 19.5 lbs
Total weight gain for the evening session is: 13.5 lbs

Slimmers of the week are: Nikki Davis 4lbs, Sadie Dann 2lbs and Natalie Bushell with 3.5lbs - Really well done!!!!

Slimmers of the month for October are: Mel Hagon 7lbs, Keith Taylor 8lbs and Amy Silk with 10lbs - they are fab weight losses!!!

For those that stayed had the opportunity to taste some of my horrible witch brewh (did you check your tongue in the mirror afterwards? - it should have been blue hehehehehehe! - only joking!) Some of you asked if I could put the recipe on this blog so here we go:

1 2ltr bottle of diet lemonade
some flavoured tea bags (I used the blackberry/blueberry one) - put 1 teabag per liter, so 2 in this case.
chopped fruit (I used apples/oranges)
Optinal: plastic animals because it is Halloween time

Pour the lemonade into a bowl/jug - add the tea bags and let them defuse until your required taste. If you are not using this straight away I suggest you pour the contents without the teabags back into the bottle so you keep the fizz. When required pour into a bowl, add the fruit (and plastic animals) and hey presto!!! a nice syn free drink and something nice for those that like to have a drink but are driving. Also brilliant for children.


We did a small brain storm on some of the Christmas foods which was really interesting. During the month November/December I will do a print out of some of those foods and hand them out in group, so stay if you want a copy!
We have  only 8 more weigh ins before Christmas......... are you going to make your target? hope so!

Will keep you posted during the week. If you want to leave a comment your more then welcome to, however I think you need to become a member (follower) in order to do so.

Behave yourselves over the weekend please - the scales won't lie on Thursday :)

Mid-week update 26-10-2010

Hi all,

Well it's a nice wet Tuesday afternoon!! what are you all doing? hope you are all being good so far! If you need that bit of mid-week support don't forget to go onto the members website via Slimming Worlds main website by using your pin.

Try to stay focused - I know it isn't easy at times; however if you are struggling now, how are you going to cope with Christmas? Did you set a target yet on our Christmas tree? If not then come and see me - I will give you a heart to write your promise down (it has to come from your own heart).

This week in group we are going to work on Christmas food - if you want to have some help with this then please try to stay to group. It is only one hour of your time to set you up for the rest of the week. Your input can really help some one that is struggling in group or visa versa.

Anyway, thinking of you all

See you on Thursday

What a fantastic group we had!!! Thank you to those that brought in some food for the morning session food tasting - all of it was very yummy!!!
we had some fresh fruit, pig in blankets, curry with rice, quorn sausages, tuna & potato salad, cheese & lentil wedges (still need to put syn value together for this), snack a jacks, dips (from the new extra easy Christmas book) and cut up vegetables, if I have forgotten anything then please leave it in the comment box below.

The morning group lost this week a wonderful 41.5 lbs and only gained 9 lbs - so really well done to everyone!!! :)


The evening group lost a wonderful 47.5lbs and gained 8lbs so even better!!!!

Am really proud of you all - really well done!!!

The Slimmers of the week were: Sue King, Carol Tipler and Natalie Bushell.

I know it is half term next week - don't let this affect your weight loss please you are doing so well now. I would really appreciate it if you could just get weighed if you are not able to stay because of the children or grandchildren.

Anyway will keep you posted during the week.
