A Slimmer Summer with Slimming World

CRANKY40

Poor MrD, I hope he's not feeling too battered and bruised today.

I lost 1.5lbs this week, which means I only need another 1.5lbs to get my 2 stone award. I went on our trampoline for the first time last night - I'd been too frightened I'd break it before. The child laughed until he couldn't breathe!

I should be in the kitchen making chicken soup, or upstairs doing the ironing. The weather is putting me off though - I get so much more done when it's sunny. The cat's won't go out because it's raining so they're doing 100mph circuits of the house, and I really need to go and find a jumper because it's cold. On the plus side, I shopped from my wardrobe this week, and have 4 pairs of trousers that fit me now that didn't fit when I started SW

I've had to revise my plan for today as OH has nabbed the last of the chilli, not really a problem as i didnt really fancy it anyway.
So today has now turned into a green day...

B- special k (5), milk (hea) and celery sticks (i'd already had them and love the stuff anyway)
L- jp and cheese (hea) tiny blob of marge (1) followed by huge slice of melon
T- pasta and cheese sauce made using mini tub of philli and grated cheese (heb) mixed with last of my milk and black pepper with wm roll (heb)
S- cherry toms, alpen light (3.5) aero mousse (5) maybe a frozen mullerlight too if i'm still hungry - i seem to be starving today.

We normally go shopping sat/sun but OH is now working so i'm gonna have a rummage through the cupboards and see what kind of plan i can rustle up for tomoro.

Which scales do you use from Argos please? The ones I have I've had for years and I dread to think how many times they've been dropped So I was thinking of investing in a new set especially as I've heard people say they've lost 0.5lb but mine don't register a difference that small! I'm thinking if I can claim small victories like that then it will keep me encouraged whereas on my current scales I stay the same

I've JUST started eating a' little' fish under pressure (I really really really dont like it.....But Mr D does....and he says cos he eats some of my 'experiments' the deal is I have to eat fish now & again with him

I can cope with cod, haddock (in batter would be nicer ) tuna from a tin I'm finding bearable, and now I've progessed to that yellow fish (smoked? haddock)_pale_ as thats one of his faves. oh and prawns! ive eaten them a few weeks ago and theyre not too bad if you dont chew them :rotfl:

I put a spicy fish kebab recipe on the recipe thread thats pretty nice though (cos you cant taste or smell the fish lol)

Thanks for the suggestions but I couldn't possibly eat a prawn or tinned tuna.. even the thought makes my gag reflex go.

I think I might try fish pie to start with as you can't "see" the fish as fish IYKWIM.. one day i'll be brave enough..:rotfl:

The alpen lights are only 3 syns each - so save yourself half a syn

Hi everyone :wave:

Well today wasnt TOO bad. Walked the length and breadth of Oxford st and then went for my eyebrow shape ( body magic:D) Took the size 10 stuff back to M&S and bought a couple of vest tops in a 8 and leggings in an 8. We went to a thai place and I had a chicken cashew with butternut squash stir fry. Ive never had butternut squash in a stirfry before it was lovely! Will call this 5 syns. Loads of SF in there ( spring onions peppers carrot) plus steamed rice free and a diet coke.

Sadly tho the shorts shopping was awful My milk bottle legs looked really flabby (eek) so needless to say, I put them back :eek: and I couldnt be faffed after trying on in 3 shops and they looked dire.

Ho Hum!

Dinner for tonight is salad, grilled chicken, these M&S new rump steak kebabs ( anyone seen these?) think these will have a few syns in, plus cous, and a small jacket.

Will have more fruit later plus a dime bar.

Must not overeat choclate today there is loads in the house, well done and welcome to everyone, cant keep up at the moment! :wave:

Nice to hear Mr Dizzy isn't badly hurt, fingers crossed the car is fixable.

I need some new scales, might have a look at the WW ones..

Good night last night, finished the day at 11 syns including a LARGE gass of wine:dance:

Spent the mornin shopping for clothes for OH :mad: why are men such a pain in the a**e :mad: Finally got him something at Go Outdoors:doh:

Still, I got a lovely top and joy of joys, I tried on a skirt in size14 and it fitted beautifully :j:j:jI didn't buy it (not yet ) but I was sooooo chuffed I might have to go back ....:whistle:

Today:
B: Polenta and eggs
L: JP and beans
S: Banana
'Fakeaway night' Onion bajees with raita dip and salad, BNS and spinach curry with rice (from an SW curry book) 2 syns in total:D

Might have Pogens and laughing moo's for supper to use some HEB's and as Man City won the cup I'll have a glass of wine :footie: to celebrate!
