    Hello Everyone

    I am rejoining SW tonight so have subscribed to this thread and will be posting to keep myself motivated!

    I went to SW throughout 2012 and lost over 1.5 stone up to October and then was static until Xmas but since then the weight has been creeping back on. I need to act now before I am back to square one!

    Looking forward to chatting x

    Gah, only 1lb off for me this week :( Has motivated me to try harder this week though - I really want to get that bloody stone gone! Lots more sf squash & more SF foods - I need to do a shop so some meals had gone without it the last few days - naughty naughty!

    Also started on the treadmill again today - 15 minutes everyday - not that hard right? :o

    Thanks for the new thread.

    I have lost 5lbs since my last post on here. I have been ill and waited until I was definitely eating properly again and wasn't dehydrated anymore before weighing.

    Today's plan
    B; porridge (HEB) semi skimmed milk from allowance (HEA) and tea with milk
    L; 4 oatcakes, not sure of syns with 30g low fat cheese (no fresh fruit or veg in house)
    D; chilli con carne with rice (loaded with vegetables and beans)

    Guessing it will be 15 syns today

    We are going to chiro and 4ldi later so I can stock up on healthy things.

    ETA I am on a wheat free diet hence the oatcakes and porridge. Getting a bit bored with them now though.

    Does anyone has a suggestion for a "creamy" dressing I could use with cold cooked pasta, tuna, veggies etc......???

    I would like to make up a big bowl to keep in the fridge for nibbling danger times

    ;)

    Google brings up SW marie rose sauce but........the links dont seem to take me to a recipe!!

    :rotfl:

    I am thinking a quarkish or ff fromage frais type of thing might do the trick.....???

    Ideally I would like a ff mayo-ish recipe.....cannot STAND ready made low cal mayos, far too sweet for my taste, so I think I need to make something from scratch.

    Any suggestions would be great!

    Right... Now that's very funny cos I only lost 1/2lb last week and had started treadmilling...mmmm interesting. I felt it come off me more the week I lost 3lb and didn't treadmill.
    Like I say I don't think it's gonna drop off me fast. It's a price I pay I think for eating loads. SW EE doesn't really help me lose fast I don't think I can handle carbs well. I've tried Atkins type diets before and they do work fast but I get too hungry. Red days are the same I would miss my unlimited pasta ect.
    At least it's a pound in the right direction skint_cat

    Oops skint_cat just read you had started treadmill today.
    Must focus and pay attention. I can only manage 10 -15mins treadmill
    I find it really boring can't relax and watch tv on it either

    I think also I should be more consistent with syns but can't decide what figure to go for. 10 I guess & see what that brings next week! Bit scared to go to 15. I know they say you can take the 'scenic' route, but I want to make good progress whilst my motivation is high, so willing to do anything to achieve that at the moment.

    A lady at class this week began to treadmill & lost 3lbs when she thought she'd lost nothing, so it inspired me, though I guess funny things still happen with our bodies jinny! I know that with the amount of weight I have to lose I need to start now to tone up as I go, otherwise I will be very saggy when I get to a nice size & don't want that! I watch TV or a DVD on my laptop in front of it - makes the time go quicker!

    Just nipped to sainsburys to get ice cream for DD as she's under the weather. Got strawberry cornettos, they are only 8 syns each?! 160 calories, sounds good to me...
