Dizzyk are you around? I was wondering if you'd be as kind as to let me know what you put in your 'confused' dyno rod soup. I was going to make butternut squash soup as I already have one in the fridge but I think your combination of squash and the speed soup may be a good idea to see if I can get the wieght shifting a bit after my disasterous weigh in last night!!! I'm going to Morrison's after work so I can pick up any bits I need for it!

Thanks xxx

Am feeling very grumpy

Just got a letter from the hospital......my appointment for the 24th nov to sign my consent etc for my magic ears Op has been cancelled and changed to - 11th DEC WHEN IM IN MEXICO FROM 6TH DEC TIL AFTER NEW YEAR :mad:

Im really fed up now, got OH to ring up (I cant hear on phone to do it myself....sooooo frustrating) and they cant get me in before we go away - the surgeon has decided to book a last minute hol so has cancelled all his appointments the last two weeks of november apparently so now I cant be seen until 6th Jan ..... its a good job mr PMT has just left the building cos I could seriously do some damage to my own bodyweight of chocolate right now

Thanks Dizzy! I've written myself a list....think I may need a bigger pan looking at that list!!! Sorry to hear about your appointment being cancelled....hospitals can be soooo rubbish at times!!

Afternoon all,

Not a good week for me - been to the doctors about my back - he made me cry by prodding me in the back!

On Co-codamol & ibuprofen which can apparently lead to toilet problems so i am trying to eat more fruit

Even with the tablets i am in pain!

Days are normally good SW wise but as soon as i have had my tea the fairies - alright it is me i have to admit it - are called from the fridge/cupboards with all the nice things i have brought - biscuits atm are my downfall!

The sainsburys mini cookies are really nice - they are 1 syn each but i couldn't just eat a couple the whole bag is gone within a few minutes! that is about 28 syns just on biscuits!

I am just not in the frame of mind atm - definately taking the sceanic (my spelling is cr*p) route! but i have to look at the bigger picture - i have lost 3st 12lbs (until weigh in comes around anyway!) and feel and look so much better than before

I have been doing SW for just over a year so maybe i deserve a break?

Talking of alien corners - i love my root veg! can't get enough of swede & butternut squash recently - but choco & biscuits are my downfall atm! so i am 'normal' lol

Sorry for the whine - just need to get it all off my chest (or should i say gut!)

I think next week will be a fast forward week as nothing is going on and i need a kick start! The straight jacket is being measured for my as i speak!

WELL DONE for all the loosers & for those like me - the sceanic route is better than no route at all!

Hi Everyone

I am loving my soups at the moment, and in this weather they are a welcome warm at lunch time...I really need to try a few varieties now though. I am having carrot and coriander for the next few days, I love it. I usually have a veg one, which is carrots, broccolli, cauli and onion, sometimes I fry the onions with some garlic...sometimes I don't.

Not sure what to have for dinner tonight, I have a load of chicken in the fridge so everyone else will be having that..I am on a green day today, although I haven't used my HE's yet so I could have two HEb's as chicken. i think I might do some SW roasties/wedges and veggies with the chicken..so just some syns for gravy.

So far I have had..
B - Scrambled egg and beans
L - Soup
D - as above;)

I have some activia ff in the fridge and plenty of fruit in, so will try and get some of that eaten soon too.

Right must go and change a couple of nappies....have a nice day everyone xx

Sorry you're havin a bad time atm Nessie....Co-cod's are reallypretty bad for bunging you up hun drink loads and loads and get any food down you that you know 'keeps you regular'

Dont beat yourself up about having a bit of an iffy time just now....you've done fantastic - if you can just at least maintain even while you're feeling icky?? Its easier said than done tho when you're feeling a bit sorry for yourself....the choccy and biccys seem to be the things that take my pains away better than prescription drugs too! x x

Thanks Dizzy - you are an inspriration - you always seem happy & never give up!

I will be eating plenty of scan bran over the next couple of days & mushy pea curry for tea will help! Thanks for the advice

It must be the weather & the time of year!:rotfl:

Afternoon all
Well done to those with losses :T-and chin up to those who the scales haven't been kind to this week
Dizzy-
Now then -your op date changing isn't great -BUT looking on the bright side at least you are going to be able to go to mexico "well" - I would imagine that if you had your op late in november then would be no guarantee that you would be back on best form in time -so Go and have a whale of a time and then you can come back fully relaxed n rested for your OP :T

Well Im having another of my "don't really fancy anything to eat" days again -so Im going red -although I haven't had much yet ...it looks like this:-

• 250ml semi (A)
• 2 apples
• 2 clementines
• activia intensely (2.5)

hmmm well that is brekki n lunch and the rest should look like this:-

• goan pork curry (0.5)
• 198g potato (B)
• wedged in 1/4tsp oil (0.5)
• 250ml semi (A)
• fibre plus (B)
• activia intensely (2.5)
• plums
• orange
• satsumas

so that "should" be 2A+2Bs and 6 syns -but it may change as the curry is a new recipe so Im not even sure if I will have it ,,,we will see

I can't believe how blinkin cold it is again .. they reckon we are in for a really harsh weather so I will be upping the stew/casserole dishes me thinks...
Anyhoo I had better get off and do some more typing...
Have a great day everyone and keep at it...

Ello everyone,

Sorry I have been away so long, I had a two week holiday in London and my graduation from a course so I wasn't exactly on plan at all for the 2 weeks, came back to find I'd put on 2lb which I'm actually really really happy about because I was really bad.

Pizza, Pringles, Chocolates, Crisps, Bread, Curry, cheese to name but a few, 2lbs on a small and very lucky price to pay.:p

I've been back on plan this week tho, so we shall see how I go next week
