EE today

L: sweet chilli chicken & salad in chilli mayo in a wrap (say 10 syns)

Not eaten an awful lot today, but DS7 was throwing up all last night, so really haven't felt all that hungry today _pale_

Green day today

L: Salad (tomato, lettuce, cucumber) with honey mustard dressing (1 syn) and FF natural yoghurt with raspberries

hi all

Going to join ya, Having given up smoking i am putting on weight each week and need to sort it out after years of deiting im a size 12 and said once i got to that i would give up the fags. Im borded of the other diet i was on so thought i would give this one a go.

Brought mag and have barrowed a book from friend so todays the day!,

b 30g sugarpuffs with semi milk

L 2 muller yogarts and an apple

d beans on toast

Landybabe, welcome. Have you read the first post on this thread, that sets out the healthy eating way of Slimming World? I ask because what you have listed above doesn't seem to fit the criteria very well
*Sugar puffs have to be synned, 5.5 syns for 28g so your 30g is probably 6 syns. Nothing in your breakfast is superfree (fruit or vegetable) and one-third of each meal should be superfree.
*Did you measure your semiskimmed milk? You can have/should have 250ml a day, but that includes what you use in tea or coffee as well as on your cereal. This is your healthy extra A choice.
*2 muller yoghurts and an apple is not much for lunch, especially as your dinner is also tiny. On the plus side, I guess an apple would count as 1/3 of your lunch
*Beans on toast - the toast should be wholemeal, 57g in total or 2 slices of a 400g loaf/1 slice of a 800g loaf. This counts as your healthy extra B choice.
You must have been hungry during the day and you should not be hungry. Please eat more fruit and lots more vegetables (baked beans don't count as vegetables).

Ideally I suggest you go to a class for just one visit, so you can hear from the consultant exactly how slimming world works. Please don't mind me pointing this out to you.

Evening all, have survived being in charge of Reception class but boy am I shattered.
Food today;

Is it possible to eat too much fruit, not sure it's good for my tummy. Had pains alot today & have eaten masses of fruit in fruit salads.

I expect that fruit is just fermenting away in there TIE, and you'll have a lovely big ...erm... dynorod moment tomorrow

right, off to struggle with the website and enter this week's weight loss. I only enter if it's a loss, so it looks as if I've stayed the same for weeks I can't stand the patronising message it sends me if I have a teensy gain.

Just been for WI and lost 1.5lbs - I am pleased with that.

What I realise about this is that I am now concious of what I am eating. We went to the Harvester on Friday and I filled up on salad and when the meal came I just picked at the (grilled) chicken and the potatoes. I only had one bread roll whereas usually I would have a couple. Saturday we had a take away because it was Fathers Day (my husband finds any excuse) and I had chow mein, shop suey and some rice. I had a few pieces of sweets & sour battered chicken but I was concious of how much of that I was eating and eat more of the food with veg in.

It has taken me a while to get my head around but I am getting there.

However, I am about to go to the PO and get myself a chocolate bar and crisps as a treat.

PS. I have an online business and am usually inundated with spam but I've not even had any Spam. It is very quiet - you start to worry when even the spammers are not spamming!! Bit like picking up the phone when you are waiting for a call to make sure it is still working (we have all done it, go on, admit it!!)

Hey all

Where are you all hiding today?

I suffer most days in work with rumbling and rolling noises and wind pains. Its not to bad when I am home because I don't have to hold any windy pop's in :eek: but I can't exactly let these just go in work hahaha by the end of the day, I have trapped wind and spend the evening trying to untrap it. If anyone has any tips of secretly letting wind go, please share

Well I am happy today, its official WI, and since last wed I have lost 3lb. So I am now 10st 11 and my size 14 trousers and jeans are now starting to feel to lose. I spent yesterday pulling up my work trousers, the same ones that split a few months back when I crouched down. I remember someone on here commenting saying soon enough they will be too big, and I though nahhhh that won't happen, well you were right, they are now to big!! Costing a fortune losing weight with new clothes, but boy does it feel good. I have now decided I want to go down to 10st 8, that will be 2 stone loss, then I will stop!
