Hope Everyone has had a good day
Ive been realllllly good today and tackled the a big pile of the mountain of Ironing that I'd done my best to ignore all week.....I still dont recommend sitting down to do it tho :mad: But my unused zimmer frame on loan from the hosp (i'm still waiting for the ever efficient council to come and collect it) came in very handy as a portable clothes rail....I could wheel them in the bedroom...no crutches and not fall over......God that felt good :j:beer:
Food intake today been a bit better,
breakfast weetabix & boiling water HEA milk...teas thru day
lunch Onken ff strawb yog & strawbs
tea was going to be fish (yack)& new pots but I had jacket spud cottage cheese mixed salad balsamic vinegar instead
syns none yet kit kat 5 1/2 toffee popcorn 5
my oh half been at golf again and now snoring loudly.....its a good job he is on the sofa on my deaf side or I would have a pillow on his head lol :A:smileyhea0 -
My EE menu for today, hopefully better than yesterday:
B - Spaghetti hoops on 2 toasted wholemeal (HEB)
followed by an apple
L - Pasta with 2 ex-light cheese triangles stirred through (part of HEA)
followed by a huuuge fruit salad (apple/clem/strawbs/red grapes/kiwi) with mullerlight on top
Mid-afternoon snack - 2 scanbrans (2 syns) with 2 ex-light cheese triangles (part of HEA) & tomato
D - 2 loaded potato skins (salmon/red onion/quark/potato) with lettuce, cottage cheese, cous cous (1/2 syn) & tomatoes
I've only had 2+1/2 syns so far so I could be naughty & treat myself to a full Go Ahead twinpack yoghurt bar later :think: I know I should probably just have half as it's weigh-in tomorrow (eek!!), will see how I feel. Would prefer a kit-kat though (thanks to dizzy for telling me the syns & apologies to lynz for mentioning them again!!).

Hi can I join in please.
I have done SW before and I started back in may but due to illness and tablets they gave me I am back at the weight I started.
I'm strugling to get motivated again but after reading how well you lot are doing I thought I would give myself a kick up the backside and get back on track in the morning.
I am not very good at cooking and sometimes find it hard as Hubby works away on the rigs 28days on then 28days off and I'm left looking after 2 girls, 4year old and 2 year old who are fussy eaters. I need to get in to the habit of cooking and freezing meals.
Thats enought of me waffeling. Now off to try and plan what I am going to eat for the next 2 days something I never done.GC July £250/0 -

Hi there, i was in the same situation with meds but since coming off them I am 1lb away from previous target. I was lucky that once meds were out of my system my appetite was practically non exsistant which helped kick start my motivation.
