I Joined slimming world 6 weeks ago and the first week i lost 7lbs, But since then i have maintained my weight, and that is a horrid feeling when your all sat around in a circle clapping at people for losing lbs,

Im missing being able to have a sandwich for lunch or a bowl of cereal for breakfast, or having a treat without going over my "syn " allowance also wondering if eating so much fruit is actually that good for you i can go through a punnet of grapes and strawberry's plus a apple orange and a banana a day just for snacks.

So im going to give MFP a go i have 90lbs to lose.

I would love to have some friends on here to help motivated me.

    Welcome! I've been here since Jan of this year, and I've lost almost 20 lbs! I wish I would have joined this site a long time ago. It's the kick-starter that I needed. Let's be friends and motivate one another!

    You've done the right thing. Slimming world encourages some terrible food choices. Welcome!!
