**Happy New Slimming World Year**

antonia1

Afternoon all! Food plan for today:

B - fruit, yog + oats (HEB)
L - ragu
D - HM lamb curry

Snacks - nana, apple, kiwi, yog

Really looking forward to the curry, but I haven't cooked curry from scratch before, so a bit nervous with all the spices and stuff.

Hi all,

I think I'd like to join you!! After 6 months of new-coupledom I've been piling the weight on :-( . I've been trying the general 'healthy eating' approach for a few weeks and its not working, I am too weak willed when I don't have a plan to follow. I've done SW years ago so know it works.

I am currently 10st 3lbs and would like to be 9st. Losing 17lbs seems like loads though :mad:

Additional requirements are my evening meal needs to be low salt (as I want to eat the same as I make for OH who has kidney disease). Ideally his meals should be high calorie, so I'm going to have to think carefully about how to keep his calories up while reducing mine.

Anyway, just thought I'd say hello!

Today:

Museli + milk
Grilled salmon + salad
Sunbites crisps (no idea of syn value)
3 oranges

Off to the gym after work, no idea whats for tea afterward, its a danger time as I'll be hungry and tired

My advice would be take it very easy! If you don't like spicy food then halve what it says in the recipe.. you can always add more in but can't take it back!!

Have a Fibre Plus Bar Dizzy - they keep the fairies away nicely - then you can chuck the other nasties back at them!

aaagh. just wrote a big long post and then it got deleted!! anyways the jist of it, still feeling lurgified but guilty also. that was me back at work from my sickline last week and now i'm off again. i feel so bad about it. i'm going to be dragging myself out of my bed tomorrow even if i still feel bad.

today is a greeny day as i haven't bothered venturing out;
lunch - baked potato with egg mayo (3 syns altogether for light mayo and mustard)
snacks - smash bhajis with lots of chilli to clear my nose! banana, orange, lots of coffee
dinner - looks to be tuna pasta with sweetcorn (HEB tuna and 2.5 syns for light mayo)

HEA - s/s milk in my coffee

my wee moggy felix is still struggling, i've smooshed up all his food but he's still not taking his medicine. rearranged the vet appointment for friday so hopefully he'll no longer be in pain.
