Tonight should have been my weigh-in but the class is cancelled - the roads are just too bad! Good job, as I think I've put on this week due to boredom sitting in the house.

Hope your okay hun. The weather is terrible.
my week has gone to pot, sat here with a beer in hand and got pizza and chips in the oven. Ooops! :x
x
 
I'm still sticking to my soup during the day as really need to get some weight off. Doubt for one minute I'll have a loss like last week though. Have found by splitting it into 2 small meals (lunchtime and mid afternoon) stops me wanting to snack so much. Must get off my backside in a mo and cook some more :))
 
Skated to the club by work tonight after work:))

Glad it was on - lost 1.5lb this week so total of 20.5 lbs or 1 stone 6.5lb now:) only 0.5lb off my 1.5 stone sticker now!

Must text my regular consultant he always wants to know what Ive lost if I go to the other club. Everyone was taking ages to remove snow boots/wellies and loads of layers!

Really fancy a beer tonight and have syns left so may have one - a very small bottle of bud.

Got to open my advent cal too - got a Moo free dairy free one this year:)
 
Argh...gained 1lbs this week :(
No hope for me now before xmas as I'm on holiday soon and going out three times during the week x
 
I shall be the same over Christmasrolleyes

Decided on a semi flexi day today as I went to the Worcester christmas market, and met friends for drinks.

Not done too bad really.

B - 2 wheatabix, soya milk, banana

Lunch at fayre - Moroccan chick pea soup - very tasty and filling and low fat

Tea - jacket spud and ratatouille, salad

Snacks/Syns (the not good part!)
Glass of hot plum cordial with a large rum in (went straight to my head as I dont really drink now)

Medium soya hot choc in Costas - pure bliss but dread to think of cals/fat

Apple, Satsuma, Diet Coke

So managed to stay in control - cant think it was that bad those 2 naughty but nommy drinks!
 
Wow, how good were you today! Surely your syns would cover that easily?
Silly me, just made banana cake and it smells yummie. Must resist temptation :(
 
Iv been following slimming world for a few years. Iv lost 2 stone, id like to lose a bit more though.
I cant afford meetings but I'm start to kick start again so got my book back out and i also bought the green recipe book too, lots in there i want to try.

If youguys want a cople of recipes from ther just give me an idea what your wanting and il see what i can find.

Sorry to double post, my down fall is my sweet cravings.
Could someone possibly give me the recipe for the the sran bran carrot cake or something else low in syns please?

thank you
 
I usually have a curly wurly if I want something sweet, from memory I think they are only 6 syns
 
Well, I have been really bad for about a week now.......I blame this weather! :(|)

I'm hoping to get right back on it again tomorrow - hopefully should have my class on Wednesday, if it doesn't snow again. Missing that, really doesn't help me.
 
Your not the only one Angela, I have been messing about now so much. Had a bad weekend but hoping to be good now until I go on holiday, so Ive got a week lol x
 
Same here - am craving naughty foods but not given in apart from my advent cal choc!

Having nutroast, SW style roast spuds, red onion gravy from the SW saucy secrets book and piles pf fresh veggies for dinner.

Got 4 individual nutroasts at the Christmas fayre yesterday and have frozen others, they are big enough 'single portions' for Mum and me to share one at a time so doubt its too bad? Am sure nuts can be a Healthy extra! Plus my syns for the day.

Not had a veggie style roast dinner in ages:)

Got a rice pud in the oven too - bit later then will make a coupple of breakfasts with some fresh blueberries.

My motivation to go to class is weak at the mo, did skate to the one by work last week but didnt stay - in the snow I just wanted to get the next train home!

Its meant to be icy all week so not sure if Il venture out to the club in the village yet or not, if we have a staff meeeting Weds til 5.15 I know the 5.30 local weigh in will call me!

Should go soon to local one as not seen my consultant in 2 weeks and he is going into hospital over Christmas so want to see him before he goes in, he is such a nice genuine person:)

Amount I'm eating I wont lose this week and going to later meeting after tea is not the best if you went week before to earlier one!
May go to another one over Christmas as 10am weigh in:))
 
I shall go and weigh tomorrow. Hoping to have lost some more. If nothing else my clothes are starting to feel more comfortable :)
 
Well done ladies. Glad to see some of you are doing well.
There is no hope for me now, I'm well and truly in holiday mode already lol.
I go to Egypt on monday, back on 20th then got xmas and new year to deal with. x
