Make 2013 a year to remember with Slimming World

Hi all,

Another busy day at work so just had a quick catch up and will try and read through properly later.

Shara - well done on the loss and sorry to hear you're not well. Have heard of PVFS and a friend has had ME-type symptoms for years which she thought may be post -viral- she has found that fruit and veg gave her more energy so I agree with Maman, good nutrition should certainly help.

Stef re. salt- haven't heard that before but just doing a quick search it seems that tap water does indeed generally contain more sodium than bottled water, depending on which area you are in. However, the difference is maybe 10-20mg/litre, which in comparison to the sodium in food is hardly anything - a 30g packet of crisps contains around 100-300mg, so unless you're following a seriously strict bodybuilding type diet I wouldn't worry. Besides, buying bottled water is not very MSE, especially if most of the tap water you drink comes from your work's tap anyway :money:

Maman - the lamb curry I mentioned last week is a tomato based one, and I'm going to make the Hairy Dieters chicken jalfrezi this week

LL - belated happy birthday!

EE today:
B: Porridge (B), milk (A), golden syrup (2), banana
L: L/O liver, bacon, onions and mushrooms, butternut squash chips, satsuma
T: Pasta of some type
S: Post WI goodies - probably a caramel egg and a packet of jelly tots

Right, I'm meant to be somewhere else so laters people- have a good day!

Hi All :wave:

Didn't manage to get back on over the weekend, hope you are all well & had a nice mothers day, my sister & I laid flowers in the garden of rememberance at the crematorium where her ashes were scattered (she walked out on us when I was 10 & sis only 4) we only found out over a year ago she passed away so just seemed the right thing to do.

Anyhow, SE for me today as not 100% on plan at weekend

B - Melon, Pineapple, berries, FF yoghurt
L - 1/2 tin salmon, tomato sauce (1 syn) large salad 2 x M & S WM mini subs (B), apple, satsuma, banana
D - Quick pasta bolognese (jar) 3.5 syns , will have a salad to start

HEA - 1 for milk, 1 for Laughing cows
HEB - 1 above & 3 x SS ryvita, will also have some fruit with this

Best get back to the paid stuff now, will try pop in later x

Shazz27 well done on your fab loss :T
Lucky legs - Hope you had a nice day yesterday, sorry I missed it, was helping DH run cables through our wall to put tv up

Good afternoon, hope your all well. :A

I'm feeling really disheartened today, it was weigh in number 7 this morning & I only lost 10 oz's. That means i've lost 10 lbs in 7 weeks. I know it's still a loss but i'm getting very frustrated seeing other people lose lb's every week. At this rate I won't be having my surgery this year as I still have 25 lb 9 oz's to lose & it's getting harder each week to lose anything.

I've got 7 weeks till I have to go back to see my surgeon & I was hoping to of lost most of the weight by then. I just hope he can see that i'm trying & not write me off.

ETA I know it's a loss & i'd rather lose 10 lbs than put it on but most of that (7 lbs) I lost in the first 2 weeks so in the following 5 weeks i've only lost 3 lbs.

Good afternoon lovelies :wave:

Brrrrrrrrrr!!! I hate this cold.

I grabbed a couple of melons that were on offer last Friday.

Was hoping to have a big bowlful of melon and strawberries for brekkie to start SE this week...but I need hot food in this weather.

All I want to do is hibernate.

B. tomato, pepper and onion omelette
snack. Orange
L. Jacket potato with tune and green salad
snack orange
D. chicken stir-fry (using soy sauce only)

Bring me sunshine

Don't get disheartened BCS,

Although I'm not one to say, as I've hit a plateau which is getting me down.

We'll just have to keep on plodding

I'm trying to be positive but have a really bad headache & feel really sick today so don't feel up to eating at all which isn't going to help. My granddaughter has been ill all week & i'm wondering whether i've caught it now.

Hope you have a good loss this week. :A
