A slimmer Christmas is a-coming with Slimming World

fozziebeartoo

My 1st SW day goes like this:-

B - 2 x clementines & 2 x weetabix (heb)

L - 2 x nectarines & ham omelette

T - Chicken Stir Fry (no oil) - chicken, brown rice, onion, mushroom, red pepper, peas, corn (should be enough for 2,maybe 3 meals)

Snack - 2 x plums & maybe FF activia this evening (either Free or 1/2 syn depending on where I look)

Milk in endless cups of tea (been up since 2.30am :eek: ) are hea + 4.5 syns

Looking at my SW books I think I am doing it okay, but cannot see how I'll lose weight if I eat this much.......

But at least I am eating a lot healthier than I have been lately!

Argh! just realised i've only been synning creamed coconut by half!!
28g =9 syns, but one sachet =50g not 28g!!! so half of a sachet is nearly 9 syns!!!!

Hmm. I will have to only use half a sachet in a whole recipe from now on, so that half of my curry is 4.5 syns.
I can't have curry without a bit of coconut, it just makes it what it is!!!

Can't believe I didnt realise that!

I can eat quorn made into a chilli (at a push).....but not spag bol or anything else.

u could try adding oxo cubes (1/2 a syn each) or bovril from the jar (syn free) or a bit of both... i find tht gives it the beefy flavour that's missing! not if ur a veggie tho lol:)

My consultant said they are free now - the people at head office said they are to be free as long as you don't eat them like sweets! lol If you are only using them in sauces etc. i don't see a problem!

Nothing intresting to report today! Haven't eaten as regularly as normal as in meetings most of the day!

I am a little worried about Saturday Night - got a night out on the town planned! I do plan on getting drunk & will most probably do shots & diet coke & spirits but i reckon i will be well over my syn limit!

Hey ho, i reckon another stint on fast forward might be on the cards soon! Straight jacket here i come!

P.S. i have found a sugar free (syn free) mint sauce - think i found it in morrisons after alot of looking, but i can't remember if it is a morrisons own etc. All i know is that it was expensive compared to my ex SW days! (Value everything!)

theres a recipe for bhajis on the old thread which are free - they used blitzed chick peas as the batter and they are really nice

wi for me tonight - been a good ee week for me but my scales are indicating no loss .......will update in about an hour

as predicted no loss - and it looked such a good week on paper !! low alcohol good amount of syns variety of meals lots of superfree lots of water running step classes
i also thought that with my paltry loss of 1lb after 4 days of success express last week my goodness may have come out this week !! no such luck
with my ups and downs im now the same as i was on 25/08 - 4 weeks ago !!!

am away on a fitness weekend - 3 days of solid hard core exercise - great topped off by 2 nights of hard core partying - bad

told my C id see where i was after the excesses of the weekend before we decide on the strategy

Phew - I'm craving sweets/choc like mad but no HEb's or syns yet today though HEb's will be taken care of wth dinner at Mom & Dads and a Fibre Plus bar later.

Am bribing myself to be good so I can have a breakfast sandwich at work on Friday otherwise I'll have to sit there smelling everyone elses and I'm NOT doing that! :drool: What do you think the best to go for is - bacon & egg on brown (I doubt they do wholemeal) with no butter & no sauce? I can always open it to cut the fat off? :drool:

Evening everyone :wave:

Well done to the losers and the job getters :T

Bit annoyed at the moment, I was eating my dinner (soup) wishing so so hard that I could have bread with it. Now that I've finished, I've realised that I've unknowingly done a green day (only done EE before now) so I could have had an extra heb! :mad::mad:

B - 2x alpen light (heb)
L - cheese and tomato omelette (hea)
D - spicy butternut squash soup

syns - will have twix and quavers later, making ten. I actually ended up having no syns at all yesterday, was quite impressed with myself!

also have another hea and heb to have, whooo. Will have babybel and a fibre plus bar

My WI tomorrow morning, so hoping all your mojo will rub off on me! I've really tried hard this week, so I hope for a loss.

has anyone found the sugar free mint sauce ? i can only seem to find regular ones

silly question, but have you thought of making your own mint sauce, that was always the childrens job when I was a child & mum was preparing Sunday lunch. Mint grows unstoppably, even in a pot, just pick some leaves, chop 'em, add sweetener and vinegar. As far as I remember. One of your neighbours will doubtless have some mint she wants to get rid of ....:rotfl: it's very invasive
