Always love your vlogs Claire. I’m a SW target member and I am struggling at the moment too. 2 hacks for you to try… I make slow cooker rice pudding with 85g rice to 350ml of sugar free cream soda. It’s nice on its own or with yoghurt stirred through, plus any toppings. It saves your healthy a. Also a brilliant instant curry sauce is 1 can each of chopped tomatoes, baked beans and mushy peas plus 2 tbsps curry powder blitzed. Add in any protein you fancy. Don’t knock it til you’ve tried it 🤣🤣

Lovely to have you back, both Tesco and Sainsbury sell the Stagg Chilli. Hubby and I often have it for lunch, so quick and easy. I am a target member but always seem to be struggling lately. Like you I got my head back in the game on Thursday and feel much more positive and know I can get back to where I want to be. Loved watching your house renovation too, I am in Nofolk too 🥰x

I'm here with you! Met target in April, have slowly gained since then now 1st heavier. I've managed to stop gaining but not yet started losing! However I have done couch to 5k, joined a girls run club and I'm doing 5k or more at least twice a week. I want to lose at least 7lbs before we go to phuket on 14 Dec. We're in this together ❤️

Fair play to you getting back on it, I've sacked off any concept of a diet until January now - I reached target, ish, getting into the 10 st bracket would have been nice but let's be honest I haven't been that weight since I was about 15 😂 I'm still weighing every week to keep a track of the damage but I'm managing to maintain at the moment, we'll see when the Christmas chocolates have come out 😂

Love your videos Claire and this was an inspiring one. Will join in on this challenge, although it has taken me 6 months to lose a stone and half, not sure why it has been so slow this time round (probably the 4th time 😂) I'm out for sunday lunch today but now going to create a meal plan for next few days and go shopping for it after work tomorrow. Just hope I have enough stuff in to get through tomorrow as I have very little in as I have just returned from a Disneyland Paris break with my 2 boys, aged 31 and almost 30 😂 had the best time! Good luck with your challenge, will be following you for sure xx

I don’t think it matters which plan you follow, it’s essential that you stick with it. I calorie count, love it, but it took me 12 months to get to target and I’ve maintained for over 13 months now. I see too many you tubers swopping from one plan to another. I like your videos I love the recipes I’m sure you’ll do well.

I agree that the groups can be clicky, I have tried a couple. I have now signed up for online membership and it works for me, although my weight loss is a bit slow, but I think that's down to social events, being single, I try and get out and about as much as I can as well as dates from online dating.... sorry, you didn't ask for my life story 😂 good luck with your weight loss x
