    Maman - Yes it was one of my aims but I want to go beyond that as well! It's very odd because on the scales I am still a stone heavier than when I got married but it still almost fits - very odd! I lost about 20lbs before I got married and when I put it all back on, it seems to have gone on in different places if that makes sense!

    Lets not talk about today's menu....

    lets talk instead about my lovely OH :heart: he has mentioned about taking me out at the weekend for a chinese meal plus drinks :j but if we decide to cook chinese instead - what would you suggest/recommend as the most sw friendly meal. Thought it might be fun to make our own healthy version and spend the syns on wine instead :rotfl:

    You can do this! You have lots of people behind you who believe in you too :)

    Flat Eric do you have access to SW online? there's been some nice Chinese type recipes on there :)

    Sorry to hear you're disappointed :( A lady I sit by at class has STS for 3 weeks running now and it's been suggested that she try some different foods, so maybe a shake up will work for you - good luck!

    We make our own chinese quite often and my hubby's favourite is chicken chow mein with a side of egg fried rice. Chow mein- chicken (obvs!), spring onion, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, peppers, onion, mushrooms if you fancy them, noodles - can add a bit of cornflour to make a proper sauce too. Egg fried rice- fry some finely chopped spring onions, scramble a couple of eggs until nearly cooked then add cold cooked rice and some peas. I think he likes it cos of the variety -it's like when we used to get a few dishes from the takeaway and have a bit of each. Mmmm, I feel quite peckish now! :rotfl:

    I just scraped it last night, lost 0.5lb and got my 4st sticker :j Lovely colleague has just commented that every time she sees me I'm smaller, and today I'm wearing a size 14 top and 12 cardie! Tbh the cardie is big for a 12 and the top is quite tight around the arms but I have got them on and they look ok so I'm taking that and running with it!! :p

    Green today:
    B: Porridge (B), milk (A), pineapple
    L: Mugshot, pineapple
    T: Linda Mc red onion sausages, chips, onion rings (going to try coating them in mash powder as was discussed in class last night - OH loves onion rings so will see what he thinks)
    S: 2 x alpen light (B), some for of biscuit (5), hot choc (2.5)

    I know there is a shameful lack of veg on there :o I'm never very organised on a Tues cos of being out at fat club the night before but am making a pan of soup tonight for rest of the week's lunches, plus rest of days will be EE so will defo be having more veg.

    Have a good day all! :)

    morrrrrrrrrning!!!!!


    well yesterday went completely to pot. the hygienist in work went a little wonky somewhere along the timescale and ran 25 minutes into lunch with her patient. I couldnt leave or do anything until the patient was away, and just as she was leaving, other people came in to pay their bills.... meant no lunch = rumbly tummy:o

    made up for it with dinner though - chicken and ham pie thing, with potatoes, and loads of veg, and a cuppa for my HEA.

    today, no breakfast because i ran late for work, but lunch will be either h/m veggie soup, or a salad.... my intention is to go to mr As near work, to get fruit or veg at lunch - working late tonight, so dinner will most likely be a mugshot or some form of kettle heated item. wont seem so bad if i munch fruit/veg with it im thinking?:o


    im nearly at target, :T:j so my aim for heading to NYC is to be 11.10 if i can, if not, 12 flat, which will mean i will need to move my target but thats no bother really, i dont think i want to go below 11st/11st 5lb anyway.. i dont know how i would look at that weight.... i just know im hyper aware that the most i can weight next june is 12st 7 (the weight i was at initial bridesmaid dress fitting).... if i can maintain 12st, then it means i will be a size 12 and happy :)

    i shall get there :) just having a little detour along the way!:rotfl:


    any banter from anyone?
    I'd rather try and fail, than not try and never know :grin:


    On the wagon again I go.... royally fell off.... 4.5st (63lb) by June 2016.... LET'S DO THIS!!!!!!! :grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin::grin:

    Yeah, it can be left out - I think it tastes more authentic with it in but it's down to personal preference. Mine was from asda, £1 for a big bottle :)
