Hello

WI today and lost another 2.5lbs ! Am very pleased with that !

I'm also very excited today as I'm going to a wedding wedding party & will be seeing people who don't know I've lost my weight. Will be good though as I'll be the designated driver, saving my wine syns for tomorrow.

Does anyone have any recommendations for biscuit cravings - I have hifi bars when I need a chocolate fix but this week I could have really eaten a packet of biscuits in one sitting

Have a good day everyone

:T on your loss too. Hope you get lots of compliments when you go to the wedding party. It's such a confidence boost. Hopefully there will be bits of chicken and veg sticks on the buffet to choose from.


I'm not fussed about biscuits personally but I know those pink wafers are just 2 syn each and even more filling (not sure if you think of them as biscuits) are those pink and white marshmallow sandwich things. They're about 2.5.

5lb but at that I am not slim enough I think I may need another stone I need to be in a size 12 but I am between 14 and 16 which really won't do when your'e only 5 ft. Not to worry I am getting it off slow but sure and I know I am eating well. I have the odd slip ups, when I may have a meat pie or meat and potato, or a steak pudding, never sweet stuff I really am a savoury person. Also I have tried cutting down on bread and potatoes and I find I am not getting the same stomach pains that I had. Also believe it or not my green beans have increased to four or five, and cauliflower two or three sprigs.. so , better than I was but not good enough. I will keep trying because I know veg is best.:rotfl::rotfl:

:T good for you wiz! I think you're brilliant to persevere with the Speed veg. Fruit can work though. I think I've posted before that my original consultant eats almost no veg at all (she said she was force fed as a child:(). So she'll have her meal like egg and chips or whatever and then eat a punnet of strawberries.


I agree that, for your height you should aim to be a smaller dress size. Why not get that 5lbs off and then think again.:) It's good to hear you feel better for carb cutting but it will also save you syns. You often use syns on extra bread so without that you could have a pie as a treat every now and then. As you enjoy your soup (and British weather isn't that hot:() having soup with a salad could help fill you up.


Today's EE plan:
B: NAS grapefruit, HEB toast, baked beans, HEA milk for drinks
L: JP with cottage cheese and beetroot
Aldi lamb rogan josh with extra mushrooms, pilau rice, SW chips
Syns: 1 or 2 in curry and rice and then there's wine syns!:D

Hiya everyone, and thanks Maman for your kind words and advice.:)

Just popping in for a mo after watching the match.

Would have taken a 2-0 defeat before the game, but, perversely, I'm scunnered with a 2-2 draw!

I think it's the equivalent of sick as a parrot tweets .:D

I watched the game and being a neutral I thought Scotland players were much more fired up and interested in winning than the English. So I too was scunnered when the equaliser went in. That being said there were mixed emotions as The Ox was 'one of our own ' and Wee Gordon our former manager who took us to FA Cup Final.

Didn't think Rashford had a very good game tweets . I think most of England team would have preferred to be on holiday.

Pilau rice was good. Very mse and syn free! If I do it again I might add more salt and pepper but that's personal taste. Feeling stuffed now and all for about half a syn!:)
