Good morning all

Well done on the losses folks :T

The thing about the SW mags mainly being based on EE - they do put a list in the magazine giving the syns for the other 2 plans too and you can soon adjust them if you are using your A/B selections as part of the ingredients


Hope everyone is well, Im feeling a little less tender this morning *thanks to lashings of Ibuprofen gel me thinks* ... Im still a bit tight n stiff, but hopefully we are on the mend -I want to get to the gym tomorrow ...I will just ignore the hand bike and stick to the treadmill and bike as the bottom half of me feels fine ..
Anyway -weigh in this morning and another 2lb has gone :j-I seem to like 2lb -I think I have lost 2lb for the last 6 or 7 weeks running


So then -today is RED and my meal plan looks like this..

• 2 boiled eggs
• 250ml semi (A)
• roast beef
• 1/2x8" yorkshire pud (4.5)+milk from allowance
• carrots
• cabbage
• cauli
• nobby greens
• 2tsp bisto best (1)
• 3 ryvita (B)
• 2 laughing cow light (3)
• salad
• 454g rhubarb-stewed (B)
• 110g Rachels rhubarb yog (2)
• 250ml semi (A)
• 1tsp camp (0.5)

SO then -thats 2A+Bs and 11syns accounted for....
Im doing some more "tweaking" this week ... Im going to be cutting my portions down and trying NOT to eat so much fruit -I know its good for me...but I can eat silly amounts and I think that I choose that first and then find I struggle to use my A+B and syns... so lets see how this week goes shall we

Have a great day everyone and keep at it,,we are getting there:T

Morning All

Ive been Awol as my Laptop has been playing up for reasons unknown :mad:

Hello to any newbies that Ive not welcomed & hope everyone has been enjoying the weekend.

Yesterday ended up being a Green Day OH was out at golf and didnt want anything other than a sandwich when he got in (I think this may have been in protest at having to trail back out to the supermarket to buy fruit that dopey head here forgot the day before lol:rotfl:) Anyway while he was snoring on the sofa I tucked into dippy egg with chips and beans (with aromat of course ) it was quick and it hit the spot.

Today is EE Ive got a braised steak & onions on the go for tea with carrots, fine beans & cabbage (OHs mum brought them ffrom the allotment yesterday) some lovely SW roasties nomnomnom.:)


Brekkie was banana nectarine & activia HEA milk for teas

Lunch turkey, savoury rice & mixed steamfresh veg pack

snacks nectarine plums

HEB fibre plus
Syns penguin wafer 4.5 3 cubes dairymilk bubbles 3 = 7

Hello, newbie over here!! :wave:

I joined SW 3 weeks ago, probably at the wrong time because I had all sorts of things going on! But, I have managed to lose 1.5lbs so at least its a loss. Hopefully now everything has settled I can get my head around it, I have never done anything like this before and considering I have a severe chocolate addiction (which is going to stop!) my body will go into shock!

I have read a few pages in this thread but it moves so fast I would be here for days trying to catch up!

Has anybody else struggled to get into the whole routine, i've been so used to treating my body like a bin (hence the need to lose about 6 stone!). Also anybody with underactive thyroids on here? How hard have you found it to lose weight.

Sorry for the questions!

We have colds here, worst thing about working in a school is you pick up so many germs!

The rice pudding/breakfast idea was a disaster, as I was cooking some plums to go with it and thought I would combine the two. The milk curdled! I did still try to eat it, but it was pretty awful. Back to the drawing board....

alisont - I remember the Gillian McKeith Quinoa porridge thing too - still want to come up with a breakfast that doesn't use up my HEB.

I had a lovely free breakfast today of Quorn sausages, onions, mushrooms and tomatoes, cooked in a baking tray in the oven using frylight. Served with lots of baked beans. Yummy and so filling. I would have that in the week if I could, but don't have enough time.
I am going to look for pudding rice in our local shop today. I have a feeling it is the sort of thing they would stock, rather old fashioned. I did my supermarket shop earlier in the week so can't justify going all that way and it sounds difficult to find!

Rest of the day (green):
Skimmed milk for tea HEA
Lunch: soup (veg and broth mix - going to make loads to take to work)
Dinner: Pizza (wholemeal base, using both of my HEBs), topped with passata, fennel, olives (2 syns), capers, garlic, chillis, 1 tablespoon olive oil (6syns)
Possibly rice pudding too!
Treat: chocolate options 2 syns
So that is 10 syns, 2xHEB 1XHEA.

Good luck on the date flutterbyuk!
Have a great day everyone,
Liz x

The quinoa chat reminded me that I bought McKeiths book aaaaaaaaaaages ago! Just had a quick flick through and actually there might be some stuff I can use. She also seems to do a porridge with buckwheat 'groats'. No idea what a groat is tho...
