Make 2013 a year to remember with Slimming World (Part 2!)

Lol, nessie! I would NEVER pay £5+ for a pair of knickers!! £20??! :eek: At most I've paid £3/£4 a pair if it's in a matching set but for 'everyday' knickers £1 a pair is much mre like it!!

£20 for pants???? 1 pair?!?!?!? what are they? diamond encrusted?!?!

btw however said about mixing choc options with quark, thank you so much!

just a shame that if I added it to ff yog then heated it it would prob curdle & not make a good replacement for custard lol

I have heard in the past that heating a vanilla muller light in the microwave is a good substitute to custard - never tried it myself though!

I used to love mixing a white choc options with quark & eating on scan bran :eek:

But recently the price of quark has put me off completely (i used to eat the whole pot) £1.50 for a pot??? I remember when it used to be 70p a pot - what is happening to the world???

BTW: I don't think the knickers were diamond encrusted - i would have though that would be extremely uncomfortable :rotfl:

Anyone still do the old skool original days? I've been diagnosed with gestational diabetes yesterday & thinking of ultilising the original (red) plan as it reduces carbs - trying to figure out snacks which is hard when im limited with fruit (only 5 grapes at a time :eek:) as of the sugars - i've already figured out that rice, wholemeal bread & possibly peanut butter or milk effects my sugar levels quite badly

Well done to all you losers

Nessie, I am still a fan of Original SW days. I can't really get a good weight loss with EE, and don't like lots of carbs so it suits me quite well. Give it a try, it might help you.

What with you eating leaves and frogga fasting, we'll be wasting away!

:Ton your award lantanna I love my stickers.

- had a massive debate with family the other day on the price of knickers - they laughed at me when i said i thought you could get knickers for less than £1 a pair - they spend between £5 & £20 a pair :eek: to me it doesn't seem right!

For snacking, I'd go for cooked meats. I particularly like the chicken tikka bits. They'd be OK on original wouldn't they? Other than that my current favourite frittata/Spanish omelette. I put potatoes in mine but any veg is OK. The one I did yesterday had courgette, peppers, tomatoes, onions and mushrooms. I put a HEB of cheese on top but that may not agree with you.

I'm ashamed to say that the knickers I'm wearing are so old I should bin them. They're a style from M&S that has been discontinued. I have got a stockpile of a few new pairs but I keep eking the old ones out as I want them to last as long as possible. I keep looking around for a substitute but no luck so far.:(

Less than a month to go now nessie.:)

I've had a flexi meal for lunch: sandwiches and soup when I was out. Hardly junk but I'm trying to be mindful. Breakfast was SW(beans and HEB toast) and SW Bolognese planned for later.

I think we all kid ourselves we're not as heavy/fat as we are. It's a shame we don't wake up to the truth sooner as then we could undo damage when we're only a few pounds over. Reading the SW magazine, it's often photos that bring on the LBM but I used to avoid being photographed like the plague or stand at the back of groups.

surely it would only be uncomfortable it the diamonds were in the gusset?

Maman, keep away from the new M&S knix. I am so fed up with M&S knickers, they are a joke! They have no elastic just a stretchy edge and honest, no lies, they fall down. I rang up to complain and they just told me to take them back. Worn knickers, that would go down a treat in my branch of M&S. (I once took a top back and the lady on the refunds desk sniffed the underarms) I have since tried again and bought some slightly different ones but nope - they are the same. No more M&S undies for me!!

Fave undie shops, anyone?
