A slimmer Christmas is a-coming with Slimming World

Hi - great to read everyones positive start to the week.
Sorry to hear about all the medical woes - hope all goes well.

Greenpixey - I grate carrot into mince 50/50 and it makes it go a lot further and makes it taste quite sweet too!

I tried butter buds and some thing else similar from the States and found them both very synthetic tasting. I'm with the OP and would rather syn real butter!

I had a great day at the races yesterday and met Peppa Pig and George - highlight! I didn't drink anything even though we had a lift and the afternoon tea was very good, but more or less all I ate all day so not too much damage done!

I have been to the gym and my achilles is getting a bit better but I still daren't run. I did 40 minutes cardio - 20 bike and 20 cross trainer, then about 40 minutes weights and toning. I really didn't want to go tonight as I was v tired, but knew if I went straight home I would lay on the settee feeling guilty:TI am glad I went anyway!

My food plan today is EE and went like this....

2 slices vogels seed toast, 1/2 tin of beans and dry fried egg.

Bean casserole thing (syn free), ham and 3 small nectarines.

tomatoes on the way to the gym

'look what we found' lamb casserole (1.5 syns) and tinned peas.
Activia fat free raspberry yoghurt (0.5 syns).

I could eat something 'nice' but am just deciding about a banana....

This has been a good day - lets hope I can make them all good this week!

I like butter buds, a sachet lasts me approx 3 meals, maybe more, just sprinkled over each to his own. I love real butter too and do sometimes syn some, depends on the use. I never ever ever ever touch "spread" - whatever that is. All I know is, it's grey - then yellow colouring is added to encourage people to eat it :eek:

Hello everyone,
I am back from a lovely week away at Heacham and back at work now. I fell off the wagon big time, I won't go into details :eek: but I am not hopeful about weigh in tomorrow, BUT I am determined to get back on track this week. The canteen at work does jacket spuds and beans and pots of fruit. I must see how many syns their yogurts are (Elm Hill/Farm). I also need to find a spot in the house for my freecycle cycle and get going on that.
Crisp£note, what a fabulous loss! You are an inspiration.

I will weigh in tomorrow. Hopefully happybunny86 will be joining me. Good luck any other Tuesday weighers!
Liz

I've just seen an ad for Kallo rice cakes, anyone tried them? Or know the syns?

I have them, they're quite nice really. Spread them with hea dairylea sometimes (or synned nutella mixed with quark ). They're 1.5 syns each for the thick ones (29 cal each ones)

Oh, and the low fat version have 0.1g less fat than the normal ones... :rotfl:
