The Slimming World "Countdown to Easter"

lynzpower

Yes you can get a book like that its called the "syn directory". Apparently you can buy it ni "large supermarkets" but I have never seen it. My sister is a consultant and got one for me. Ebay is another option but they are so over priced on there. A book that costs like £3 a group goes for over 15 quid.

Morning all :wave:

Back on it today, my belly feels a bit wrong from yesterday - still trying to conquer that emotional eating!

Aaaaanyway moving swiftly on!

Back to it today: HEA- Skimmed Milk - HEB- not sure maybe cereal- no pagens left
Its going to be an EE:
Strawbs, blueberry & mango with yog
Lunch: Bacon, eggs mushrooms galore, beans
Dinner: Chicken stirfry incorporating Left over chicken, onions,spring onions, bamboo shoot, sugar snap peas, white cabbage mushrooms and carrots -( with oyster sauce 1syn pp thinned out with soy and fish sauce free) With egg fried rice including peas and spring onion

Am going to do a bit of cooking today- making ratatouille for the freezer and I might if I have time make the root veg curry as well for the freezer. I might also do a pasta sauce. Have some veg in the fridge on its way out so have to make the most of it.

Body magic today will be a big dog walk to the petshop with pooch plus a lovely bath and groom later this afternoon.

Have a great day all :wave:

Morning all - and thank you to all that replied to the frozen fruit question!

Its WI day for me (5pm) and I've had my usual sneaky home weigh in this morning and think I've lost 1lb but will wait for confirmation later before getting giddy with myself!

Yesterday's food was quite good after a weekend of naughtiness.
Hopefully I'll stay back on track now...

Breakfast - banana
Lunch - kiwi, grapes, scrambled egg on toast (B choice)
Tea - 5 bean chilli (free), grated cheese on top (A choice)
Extras - strawberries with a teaspoon of nutella (syns but will have to look up how many), packet of Skips (4 syns)


So that's......
1 B choice
1 A choice

....so far

Hello Lovelies!!

Well I have been doing the Jillian woman shred DVD the past few days and my goodness I ache!!

Anyway quick question about Healthy B - I have a slice of medium kingsmill 50/50 bread with my breakfast - it weighed 35g. Is that a Healthy B?

Well done to everyone - keep going!

Not enough calcium for a HEA, but enough protein for a HEB (but only on green!). Counterintuitive to not use it as a HEA really isn't it.

As you say, soft cheese does not have enough calcium to count as a HEA but is a HEB on green for its protein content. On red and EE it is assumed that you will get your protein from lean meat and fish so that is why cheese is not a HEB. Rather than risk people using a HEB for even more protein SW force you to have a more balanced diet by using your HEB for fibre rich foods.

Morning All,

I'm all shook up atm - was in middle of accident on A12 this morning but luckily my car was not hit and i am not injured - but still a major shock! Got breathilised and had to give a witness statement - some of those cars looked pretty bad - no-one was seriously hurt but one lady did go to hospital (i think as a precaution!) :eek:

Now i just need to shake up my food and i might be able to loose the 3lbs i want to loose this week! :rotfl:

I don't have any fresh fruit in house apart from banana, but i do have the frozen cherries & peaches from sainsbugs to snack on

Also, can you gather i like swede? They were reduced at Mr T on Sunday to 9p each :eek: so i got 7 swede and 2 celeriacs nom nom :rotfl: I am addicted to the stuff!

On other news DH has given up smoking :T - well he did really well on sunday & monday but this morning he has had 2! but it is fantastic considering he was on nearly 40 a day! :j

My brother got his apprenticeship and starts in May :j

My little bit of extra money coming in from cleaning office is no more :mad: - apparently it is unprofessional for me to do cleaning - but i can work as a bar maid! Hey ho - still getting paid for what i done tho :j

Sorry for the waffle

Well done to the losers & good luck for WI's x

Morning all,

nessie - glad you managed to stay safe!! that sounds a bit hair raising :eek: Can i ask how long it's took you to lose 3 stone? It's probably how much I need to lose and i figured if i lose a pound a week then it'll be Xmas before i get anywhere close.

It's first weigh in tonight for me (officially) i've been quite good this week but had loads of pasta for my tea last night so i'm hoping that doesn't affect the scales at all.

Good luck for weigh ins this week xx
