    Hi Everyone.

    I was wondering if I could get some feedback on my plan for the day?

    Breakfast
    Raisin Wheats HeB (1/2 28g)
    Skim milk HeA (1/4 - 87ml)
    Tea w/ Semi skimHeA (1/4 - 62ml)

    Lunch
    Tomatoes Free
    Celery Free
    Hummous HeB (1/2 14g)
    SnackFruit Free
    Tea w/semi skim HeA (1/4 - 62ml)

    Dinner
    Pasta Free
    Halloumi 3.5
    Mixed Veg Free
    Spray of frylight Free

    Muller light Free
    Hot chock w/semi skim HeA (1/4 - 62ml) and 2 syns

    I end up doing my healthy extra A in bits coz i have it in cups of tea or with a tiny bit of cereal. I've given myself a low syn count today as we're off to the park and i'll prob end up having a Solero (5 syns I think).


    Hope everyone has a lovely weekend - enjoy the sunshine!!:cool:

    Hello everyone!

    Ark at all you bookworms :D:p I have to say tho that once i am engrossed in a book i have to be reminded to eat.. now that can't be a bad thing!

    Today is EE

    B - 2x weetabix (heb) with chopped banana, chopped fresh apricots and milk (hea)

    L - Courgette and Mushroom omelette/fritata thingy with (tasters of) HM pork burger and HM Sweet Chilli Turkey burger (i added chilli flakes to this recipe so i had to taste it!!) (0.5syns)

    Snacks - i have been feeling v premenstrual therefore am craving lots of sweet things. To curb the craving had a nice mug of White Choc options for 2.5 syns (v v v sweet indeed!) also had 6 mikado sticks (2 of each flavour) for 3 syns

    D - Going to my friend's evening wedding reception so there's potential for naughty food to creep in! (for the 3rd weekend running)

    To minimise the damage i done a half hour session of Tae Bo and i will be setting myself a flexi syn limit :)

    Tomorrow is of course England v Germany so i have prepped my food feast!

    I plan to have a red day and have 2 Pork burgers in a w/m roll (heb) with salad, gherkins, cheese (hea) followed by sticky sweet chilli chicken wings (3 syns for a huge batch!) for lunch/dinner.

    I bought bottles of No Added Sugar Lager Shandy from Asda (FREE on SW!) I have banana, mango and melon in my fridge to make fruit kebabs and i have Nutella infused quark in my fridge to have as a sweet dip for my fruit! :D
    All hail to the sale!!!!!! :beer:

    new beginnings...... new successes..

    I'm afraid I'm here with a spanner to throw in the works :o

    Raisin Wheats aren't a healthy extra (someone please correct me if I'm wrong- I looked through all the cereals on the website but they aren't there...) and you can't have half and ounce of cereal and half of something else and add it up to a 'B' choice.

    To be extra mean... hummous isn't a healthy extra on EE anyway :o
    It's on a green day

    hummous will be about 2.5 syns for 14g unless it was reduced fat then it'll be about 1.5 syns.

    And about 2.5 for the cereal too... sorry :o

    Still, only just over 15syns and you get to have something else as a B choice too...

    Don't be down-hearted though.... You are getting the hang of it and it's hard when you're working from the old book too...

    Why not buy the SW magazine today and have a read of that for info and recipes? And it'll have another 7 day menu in it too.... :)

    Oh and don't worry about splitting you milk HEA up...as long as it's 250ml in total all day that's fine... most people do that. A bit in cereal, a bit in tea etc :)

    Afternoon all

    well its a glorious n hot day here -hope you all have your share too ;)
    We went to the golf course this morning so I walked around 9 holes (we caught up with a competition -so stopped at that point) -then it was back via the supermarket (fruit n veg top up:D) and then when we got home I found myself saying to hubby "come on lets walk to the naafi :p" -I have him VERY worried :rotfl:so I had clocked up over 11,000 steps by 10:30am :j -not sure I will add too many more to it today mind :o


    my meal plan for today is:-
    • 250ml semi skimmed (A)
    • 1 banana
    • grapes
    • peach
    • 227g jacket potato (B)
    • cottage cheese
    • lettuce
    • cucumber
    • tomato
    • celery
    • peppers
    • carrot
    • kholrabi
    • spring onions
    • gherkin
    • melon
    • pineapple
    • ham
    • 42g low fat cheddar (A)
    • same salad as above wink.gif
    • 198g steamed potatoes (B)
    • 250g peach n maracua quark (2.5)
    • fruit
    its weigh day for me in the morning (pinkies crossed folks) ..my next target is to get the next 3.5lb off to make my 2.5st award... so anything towards that will do me... I have stuck to it (well I am under my syns -but Im trying) and I have exercised a fair old bit -so I know it has to come off now or some day soon ;)
    oohhh I think it was ~daisy~ -thanks for suggesting mayo/dressing on my salads -but do you know, I really don't like them anymore :eek: -I have completely lost the taste for them :j.
    Right -i will get off -have a lovely weekend all.....

    Kellogg's Raisin Wheats are a healthy extra -you are allowed 28g but to make it a heb you have to have 1 Ryvita Multigrain with it

    Hehe. I'm not actually using "nutella" I'm using the Asda version. Its 4 syns per tablespoon.

    I mix 1 tbsp to 1/2 pot of quark so the 1/2 pot of mixture in my fridge will be 4 syns for the lot!! :D

    Its personal taste but i have to add sweetener to the quark first to get rid of the sour edge :)

    Hi all

    Not good today - weigh in and have put on a lb!!!

    I am really struggling to lose weight. I am 28, 5'3" and weigh 10st 7lb. I want to get to around 9st. I am following the slimming world eating plan and go to the gym 5 times a week. At the gym I do 30mins cardio on the treadmill (jogging for 23 mins the rest a fast walk) following by about 40 mins of free weights and ab work. However, I am not losing weight indeed this week I put on a lb. I really need some help as despite all my hard work at the gym it doesn't seem to be working.

    I have been super good all week re. SW

    Anyone got any ideas??
