Victory~When will you have finished your modules?

August, now because of the mess around taking 3 weeks to mark part A have 8 weeks to do it minus 3 weeks in Spain (not taking it there that is for sure:D) so 5 weeks to do 5 modules and the 50 Q&A:eek: better get cracking, oh no I forgot, can't do that either because asked the boss a question and he is off for the week so told me to ask him next week, 1 week down again:D

Hating this carb free day, have a massive head ache, dry mouth, feel sick with all the meat consumed today, miss milk and shreddies like crazy and know I am going to mourn my crackers and hummus later, oh I forgot it is only for one day:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl: %^^&&(* diabetic nurses:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Had a funny old day really, started out with the intentions of trying slimming world but have been stuck in the middle of two friends, one who follows WW and one on slimming world.

That's the thing, what works for one person doesn't work for everyone so IMO it's worth starting with the one you think will suit you best but if you give it a fair go and find it's not for you, then try another approach .

Out of sheer curiosity, are both your friends seeing good results on their respective plans?

Got my monthly weigh in tomorrow, it'll be a STS or a small gain - same as usual :rotfl:

Hezza apple juice is incredibly syn-tastic!! From concentrate (the one i get from tescos) is 13 syns in just 150ml!! that's not even half a glass. So I blew my syns without realising it then got all miserable and ate a buttload of biscuits to make myself feel better/worse!
O.

:eek::eek::eek: OMG!!! That's outrageous!! You are more clued up than me, I really haven't had a chance to read through it all yet, not got much further than planning for today. I've had a quick thumb through the book and found out that a 2-finger kit kat is 5.5 syns so had one of those earlier, but that's about it apart from main meals. I slept for 3 hours this abo, just conked out for some reason (its not like I've been working hard or anything;)), the family tip-toed around me, they know I can turn into a serial killer when I get one of my "heads" so know better than to disturb me, I only woke up when the phone rang. My headache is almost gone (took some more pain killers when I woke up) which is good cos I s-o-o-o want my glass of wine with my dinner.

The chilli is bubbling away on the stove - little tip, never chop up a fresh cilli then rub your eye afterwards - OWWWW!!!

Big day tomorrow, I'm officiating at my first county swimming gala so feeling quite nervous. I wont be the only "newbie" there which is good cos then we can all be clueless together. I qualified in December but it took until this month to get registered with the ASA which is why I'm only doing my first one now, so I've been going back over my course notes to refresh my memory. The gala lasts from 6-10pm so I'll miss dinner; will probably make myself a pasta lunch and take a sandwich and drink with me so I'm not tempted by the vending machine:D

Have a great weekend everyone!!

Betty - you are going to need to be patient with your self re SW: I went to classes and I still needed to look at the book regularly every day for 3 weeks to understand: that is normal.
You are not going to pick it up in 5 minutes.

Thanks BB - I know you're right I just had a crisis over the juice and then scoffed a load of biccies so now i feel silly!:o

But I really can't afford to go to the class so I'm doing research on minimins.com which has loads of info on syns, as well as on the SW forum on here where they have very kindly been helping me out. Hezza you should check these out too. I have a book but its 5 years old so doesn't have up to date info (for example, muller light is now a free food! yay!)

I know it'll take time to get my head round it all. But i'm determined to try my hardest

On the plus side - bought a size 10 dress today! must be a fluke coz my jeans are a 12 and are feeling suspiciously tight at the mo!

victory pleased to hear it's just 1 day - carb free is so hard!

I know - you could have 3 kit kats for 1 glass of juice! going to have to ditch that drink! luckily sugar free squash is free and so is soda water! Crazy. BB's right it's just cos it's packed with sugar.

Sounds like you've got a good plan for tomorrow. Hope it all goes well

Hi Missy,

My friend doing weight watchers is losing weight quicker than my friend doing slimming world, she seems to lose a pound gain 1 back, lose 2 then stay the same. It seems to follow this pattern.

Hi vixarooni, im a big Ashes to Ashes fan, did you watch it? Gene Hunt was one of the main characters, yummy! Whats beef curtain? xx

Morning all!! Another lovely day and all my washing is dry & ready to be ironed. These are the little things that make my day!

Actually had 2 glasses of wine last night so that's all my syns for yesterday. Not very hungry this morning so just had some low fat greek yoghurt with fresh strawberries, delish but I cant afford to do that every day :cool: I still haven't had a chance to read thru the SW stuff so I'm making it up as I go along and trying to make sensible choices.

Busy day today but later I'm going to get my spreadsheet together to record all my food - as suggested by someone on here (cant remember who - sorry)
