Hi all,
Sorry was going to do the blog today but unfortunately my Slimming World Laptop has broken now :( I can't access the database at all.
Hopefully I will have a laptop again by Wednesday.....in the meantime I will keep on trying to get onto the database and then do this blog.
So just to remind you that we have a weigh in only this week. If you do want to speak to me then please phone me after 7pm or email me.
I just want to wish you a good weekend - and hope its less stressed then mine (more grey haires now......)
stay in touch

please check for weather update!
Hi all,
As you might have heard we are getting a cold spell of weather - so can you please keep checking this blog for latest update on the group openings. If there is too much snow on Thursday I will have to shut the group.
Anyway hope you all had a good weekend - I see lots of comments on Facebook :) - don't forget that food diary that might help you.
Looking forward to seeing you all on Thursday - hope the snow will stay away until Friday instead.

This week we exchanged some favourite recipes in group - I am sure it would have given those that stayed something to think about and perhaps try some of these recipes out.
The morning group lost this week 33lbs and gained 11 lbs
The Slimmer of the Week this week is Andrew Rose with a 2.5lb weight loss - well done to him!!! :)
Some brilliant awards were given out too:
Kath Bishop achieved her 1/2 Stone Award, Rachel Roberts her 1 Stone Award and Sarah Wade achieved her 5.5 Stone Award!!! - heartfelt congratulations to all three of them!!! :)
The Evening group lost 19.5 lbs and gained 12.5lbs
Slimmer of the Week for the 5.30 session are: Sadie Dann and John Doust with 1.5 lb weight loss and for the 7.00pm session the winner is Hilary Maskell with also 1.5lb weight loss - Well done!!
Just a reminder for the following weeks:
Thursday 25 November: normal times - please bring a syn free food in (store cupboard) towards the Christmas Hampers, which I wlll draw on the 23rd of December (you have to stay to win); for every item you donate you will be given a raffle ticket that goes towards the draw.
Thursday 2 December: weigh in only: from 10.00 - 10.45 am and 18.00 -19.30
Thursday 9 December: as above - weigh in only
I will be available to you in the evenings (after 7pm) if you need any help or support during these two weeks.
It is due to my other job that I can't be there for those two weeks, sorry)
Thursday 16 December: group times are as follow: morning group as usual 10.00 - 11.30 evening group from 18.00 - 19.30
Could you please bring in something for the hampers that is no more then 5 syns in total on this day.
PLEASE DO NOT BRING ANY ITEMS FOR THE HAMPERS ON THE WEIGH IN SESSIONS AS I'M NOT THERE TO ACCEPT IT.
And a kind reminder to those that have notified me or booked time off - you only get six weeks hols/illness with Slimming World a year (and that year starts when you started with Slimming World). If the weeks have finished and you still wish to take time off the back fee will fall in place.
Anyway - I will try to make some of that quiche next week for you all to try in the morning group and I will print the recipe off as well for those that haven't got it yet.
Have a good weekend everyone - do your best - Thursday will be here soon :)

Well....................what a fab group we had in the morning session!!!! so many of you stayed which was great!!! When merging the later sessions in December we should have the same buzz as we get in the morning one!
I hope you all learned a little bit about your Healthy Extra's, don't forget to go to http://www.slimming-world.com/, click on 'for group members only' enter your pin and print off that list with all those Healthy Extra updates - there are so many choices!!! it is easy to get stuck with the same Healthy Extra, however please try to vary it a little bit! I think most of you liked the Finn Crisps I brought in - couldn't hear myself talking with all that stereo crunching!!! :)
We had so many wonderful and fabulous awards in the morning group:
Carolyn Cro, Joanne Thomas and Sue Hodgkinson achieved their 1/2 Stone award (that is a whopping 1.5 Stone between them!) - well done to you three!
Natalie Bushell achieved her 1 Stone Award and was also the Slimmer of the Week for the morning group with a fab weight loss of 5lbs! - seeeeeee, it can be done!
(well done by the way!!)
Gemma McKenzie achieved her 3.5 Stone Award (what a wonderful achievement!) - if you need a bit of inspiration then please talk to Gemma, she is following the Green Choice as she is vegetarian, so if you want any ideas then please talk to her! I'm sure she doesn't mind to help you!
The overall weight loss for the morning group was 52.5lbs and you gained in total 20.5lbs.
The evening session had some awards too :)
Keith Taylor achieved his 1 Stone Award!
Pat James achieved her Target!
The slimmer of the week for the 5.30 session was: Sadie Dann with a weight loss of 3.5lbs
The slimmer of the week for the 7.00 session was: Amy Silk with a weight loss of 3lbs
Total weight loss was 31.5lbs and the total gain was 13lbs.
I just want to say thank you to those that did make the effort to stay - I will keep saying: those that stay are doing generally much better with their weight loss journey to those that don't stay. Please don't feel you need to leave because you gained, we all gain at times, then it is time to get the help from your group!
I did mention it in one of the sessions that I would like to do the Christmas Hampers again this year, I would ask you to bring something in (low in Syns, prefered under 5.0) or mainly free foods/Healthy extras that can be kept.
For every item you donate you will receive a raffle ticket that will be entered for the Christmas competiton draw of the Hampers on the 23rd of December 2010 (you do have to stay to win it).
I will let you know when we start this.
Anyway - I want to wish you all a lovely weekend and a good week ahead. You know where I am if you need me.
See you all on Thursday
