Thank you, i just looked it up on mimimins though and they said 57g was a B choice. I'm mighty confuzzled:o

Edit: found my food optimising book amd soft cheese is indeed a B choice, which means i can't have it today as i have already had 2 Bs. I flexi a friday so i may have it tomorrow. I got some whoopsied chestnut mushrooms so i'm thinking a creamy, mushroom/garlic pasta.

Mrs Mc Talk about" posh frocks" it looks fantastic. I would buy one myself if I had somewhere to go to wear it !!!

I saw the typo too but was to polite to point it out :rotfl: I do love some of the typos on here, gives me a laugh if nothing else

I have developed another sore throat since getting home from work, I'm begining to think its stress related or maybe relief related i.e its Friday night and I'm so relieved its the weekend so my defences are down iyswim..

Well done on the losses [even the small ones] a loss is still a loss and thats all that matters. Hoping for a maintain myself but as its * week a possible gain is on the horizon, oh well we'll see.

Food today:
B - weetabix milk [a] coffee
L - 2x wm rolls [bs], lemon curd [2], quiche, toms, melon, activia.
T - sw chips, egg, onions, toms, quiche, spag hoops, oil spray [2], b/sauce [1]
Snacks - banana, fibre plus [5.5], pineapple+melon+onken+meringue [2.5]
Syns - 13

You are a target member , as I am, albeit at the moment, at the top end, but you seem so stressed
all the time ? Why ? you have achieved the bit you set out to ! whats wrong ?

Stuck to my plan pretty well except about 10 chips at 11pm as i was starving at work. Other than that the meal plan i posted earlier was accurate:)

*brrrrr* m-m-m morning all :snow_grin
Blinkin hector is bloomin freezin here - still no snow, but we are white over with frost right now... just been out to defrost the bird bath again and its that cold it takes your breath away :eek:
Thanks whithall -trust me I don't usually go anywhere to wear such a dress either -but I thought I would make the effort for a change
Poohbear -I love braised red cabbage too.. in fact the only veg I won't touch is fennel *ewwww*... anything else and Im eating it

Anyhoo - Im down 2lbs this morning :jwhich leaves me 1/2lb off my 6.5st shiney -so hopefully that will be mine next week .... Im planning to shake things up again this week so my body doesn't know what to expect :idea: I will decide my meal for the week once I have done this... I have plenty of food in *enough to feed a small army if the truth be told* :whistle:...


Im under instruction from hubby that Im to go back to the sale on Yours and get myself some size 16s (his treat:dance:)-now Im not be gonna be fitting in them for a while yet -but I have quite a lot of 18/20s and 18s -so apparently I may as well take advantage of the sales ... hubby declared that Im obviously going to need them (he is used to me falling on and off diets-so this whole me having willpower thing is a whole new experience for him :rotfl:)

Im having a red day today and it looks like this (well it should):-

• 250ml semi (A)
• 4 plums
• 2 clementines
• pork steak cooked with onions and sage
• 198g potato (B) -steamed
• carrots

• 3 pagan roll type thingies (6)
• 28g cheddar (A)
• cheese triangle (2)
• tomato
• peppers
• fibre plus (B)
• activia (2.5)
• fruit

Now then -that covers 2A+Bs and 14 syns -thats as near to my 15 as damn it ...
Well thats me done for now.... have a great day everyone and keep safe n warm...

Breakfast, fr berries banana and yog
Lunch Leek & Pot soup HM with brown HEB roll
Dinner is cajun chicken salad with sweet potato wedges.

Anyway Im bound to be starving in there, so will have to try adn find some fruit I like for the rest of the day :eek:

:j:j:j HEY MI OLD MUCKA !!!!! :j:j:j

GREAT TO SEE YOU BACK KIDDO :D:D:D:D


Ive found myself on mainly greens since I had that Endoscopy (funnily enough it just so happened that the weather turned colder too) but too much meat seems to set my tum off anyway Ive found.

Bonus tho as greens seem to have helped the old shopping budged a heck of a lot!! and Im a bit of a fan of the mushy pea curry of late (cheap, cheerful & remarkably like a curry from the chinese :T) Ooooh and 2 HEA/HEBs is pretty damn fine too :rotfl:


Anyway great to see you back Hun x x x

lynzpower

THANKS HUN!

Great to BE back. I have been on-off-on-off over the last few weeks and boy does it show :eek:

My leggings dont look quite as good as they did- bit wobbly!! Oh well onwards and upwards!

Is it you that gets fr mango in asda? I cannot find this anywhere. At the mo I have frozen berries ( great, happy with that) bananas the odd pineapple.Dont really know what else to have!!" I dont like apples, pears or plums will get some clems later, but otherwise a bit confused what to have in this season!

We are working with a budget per week of 50.00 but anything left over ( ie the change) will go into a savings account for a much wanted holiday next year. therefore the pressure is on really to make sure I make it happen! I agree, lots of green days is the way to go although OH seems to feel hard done by by having a meat free dinner ( :wall:)
I have however built in the chickpea and spinach curry from world of flavours in this weeks plan.

I have managed to write a plan based broadly on what we have in without buying much more and wondering what you think of it:

Sun (EE)- make a HM leek & pot soup, ( freeze in portions) defrost 2x part boned chicken breasts, bone, then cover in cajun spices to go on the george foreman, have this with Sweet pots, lettuce, spring onions, radish, carrot, peppers possibly a jacket for OH, sun also make ragu using Q mince for tomorrows lasagne.

Mon ( EE?) fruit and yog, Cous with leftover spicy chicken and carrots, pepper, radish, spinach, lettuce etc for lunch with a cereal bar (HEB) Dinner left over beef chilli and salad from the freezer

Tue (Green) Lunch HM leek & pot soup -Dinner Quorn lasagne and OH can make himself G bread if he wants and I might have a bit of a salad with this

Weds: (green) At home so quorn P bites ( 1.5) pasta and sauce ( F) chickpea and spinach curry for tea with rice

Thurs ( green) Im out so im not sure what the lunch will be yet, maybe soup in the flask ( need to test the flask!) and tea will be Quorn burgers, HM SW chips, salad

Fri ( EE) Beef stew with carrots, peas, mushrooms onions galore etc, thickened with instant mash. Lunch pasta & sauce or HM soup and bread

Does this sound alright? HEA is always skimmed milk. HEB bread rolls or cereal bars

Im stil considering the Mushy pea curry I canot bear mushy peas but im coming round to the idea!

dizzyk

nope wasnt me with the frozen mango? maybe they have it in mr s? have you looked on my supermarket? Im mainly having melon, pineapple, clems & satsuma with frozen berries at the mo as the other fruits either set my tum off or Im not keen on

Yeah that meal plan sounds fine hun
I would seriously recommend giving the Dynorod soup a bash if you've not tried it (or a variation of it)
If you just use carrot, onion, leek, tin green lentil, tin toms, tin beans, tin canelini,handful lentils & stock cube its a dead ringer for heinz veg soup !!! My OH cant get enough when I do it that way

The mushy pea curry....you really cant taste the mushy peas at all
It really is nomnomnom and sooooooo cheap !! I make the basic sauce then chuck loads of mushrooms in and some chicken as a HEB if I fancy it.

Where are you fancying On holiday hun? I set off a week tomorrow ..... just praying this awful white stuff doesnt affect the tavel plans so far our part of the country aint toooo bad

lynzpower

We still have no snow here in the capital- I do feel conned

Hopefuly america. Not that I can afford it. Im so poor right now!

I might try the MP curry next week, I dont really have the flexibility in my budget to make things we might not like and Ive pretty much done all my shopping for the week ( go me)

Cant beleive its so close to your holiday! You must be SOooo excited now!

I am slinking back in, been so busy over the past month but of course that isn't an excuse. Just not been determined enough. I have put almost all my cookbooks away apart from SW ones (and Delia, can often adapt things from her) and did a shop yesterday so am back on the wagon now.
I can't catch up with the thread, so many posts, but this did catch my eye:
