Morning :wave:

Not been a good week eating wise, been nibbling constantly. Just realised it was pmt (that's my story and I'm sticking to it, lol) Why do I always want to eat 24/7 the week before aunt Flo visits?

so needless to say I have STS Shala

I feel in control today (it's only 9.30) going to have spinach, mushrooms, egg and bacon for breakfast. I am making a big slowcooker full of soup today, just in the mood for warm filling soup.

Annie, Becks, Maman and Welshkitty! Well done for hitting your Easter target already. I really need to try harder.

I have so many reasons to lose this weight so why am I still faffing about?

I have lots of housework to do today, so better get to it but breakfast first. Have a lovely weekend with lots of yummy healthy food

Morning everyone, sorry I've not posted for a day or so... I'm another one who seems to have been thrown by the horse

In part it's due to having had a lot of work on, so eating only when I've got too hungry to carry on working (I work from home), so grab something quickly, and also that I need to do a shop for fresh fruit, cooked meats, etc., basically the things I can just snack on to satisfy hunger.

Yesterday I was doing okay, until I went off to deliver a cake, and we just couldn't find the address, and it was in a place with no phone signal, so after driving up and down dale, through remote villages, past farms, and into the middle of nowhere for 2 hours, we finally found someone to ask, and managed to find the farm I needed... it didn't help that the directions I'd been given were scant, and minus any punctuation, it's easy to see how they were misinterpreted. Oh, and she said she was on the left-hand side, when in reality they were on the right! Gah! So we set off at 5.30pm, to do a 45 min journey, and we finally began to drive back at 7.45pm! OH was with me, and absolutely starving, so we stopped at McD's... I won't bore you with the rest Suffice to say that made yesterday's plan a write off.

Aunt Flo is here, and by golly is she being an absolute cow. Have felt like death warmed up since Thurs., waking me up with dragging pains, currently sat with back ache. Need to go out to the shops, but would rather not have to go. Will see if I can get an online shop delivered by anyone tomorrow perhaps?

Not sure of today's plan, probably EE.

B - Activia yogurt (2), kiwi fruit
L - Bacon, egg, mushrooms, slice wm bread (HeB) mixed baked beans
D - Chicken with veggies, maybe some rice, as I need to buy spuds.
HeA - milk in tea/coffee
Snacks - fresh pineapple

Going to limit the syns (again! I know I said this the other day) because of the indulgences in the last few days. Not hopeful for WI on Monday. The body magic of floor laying this w/end has been put off for a couple or so weeks. Relieved in one way, as I don't feel up to it, but disappointed in another as I need to move more. Oh, and the aquafit was cancelled because I forgot it was Son's b/day too. Gah! Another b/day next week - jeez!

Lantanna - sorry you're under a cloud at the mo, but I hope that fab loss helps to brighten things up for you. I do find that if I allow the house to get neglected that affects my mood, and finally sorting it makes things better. I did mine yesterday, washing through all the wood floors, and I do feel happier for it. I'd be happier still if I had a cleaner mind you

Congratulations to those who have already reached their easter targets, blimey, I'll be lucky to get halfway to the new year one at this rate!

Hi everyone,

Well I plucked up courage and went to a meeting yesterday, my weight wasn't as bad a it could have been, but I still have a long journey.

Managed to eat well yesterday but really need to do some shopping so that I can get stuck into it. Feeling better already just for taking the plunge.

Enjoy your weekends

Morning everyone! Hope you are all having a good day!

I'm attempting my 1st green day today, partly because I need to go shopping and don't have enough fruit and veg in the house to make up 1/3 of every meal.

B: Wholemeal toast, baked beans, boiled egg.
L: Not feeling at all hungry yet, so may just have yogurt & fruit. Might have jacket potato if I do get hungry though.
Pasta with sauce made from passata, onions, mushrooms, peppers. Will also have sliced sausages in for everyone else. I might just have 1 or 2 of these or might avoid them completely and save all my syns for later.

Hexa 1 will be milk in drinks.
Hexbs are wholemeal bread and cheese on the pasta.

I know I can have another Hexa but don't feel I need it at the moment. Not sure what syns will be yet, but I always get peckish in the evenings.

Back to my usual Saturday WI tonight, so will update later.

Maman - bubble and squeak sounds yummy! How do you make it?
Thanks!

As I'm often at home during the day I deliberately cook extra veg with our supper for lunches. The best bubble & squeak needs mash to bind it together. So, what I had yesterday was mash, carrots, cabbage, peas and fried onions but any veg works. I just stir it all together and then you can either make little patties/cakes from it or just fry it as one big cake. I fry until browned, often frying a few mushrooms or a tomato in the pan first for flavour. You can eat it on it's own but I generally have cold meat and pickles with it.


I've had scrambled eggs on toast and planning some lentil soup for lunch. Chinese defrosting for tonight.:o

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone's having a good day just wanted to share todays success story.

Went into tescos and saw a really cute pair of pjs, didnt really need them but wanted them and Tescos dont do 14-16 which is what I currently am only 12-14 and 16-18. So I said to myself if the 12-14 fit I could buy them....and they did!!!! The t-shirt fits perfectly and the shorts I can get them on (wouldnt wish to be seen in them as its not a good look but I can get them on!) so chuffed with myself and shows that following the plans do make a difference

Thanks for letting me share my success xx

wi today - .2lb loss please Shala
How hard is it to lose 4lb for flips sake . I know it's my own fault, I get to Thursday and am so tired that I eat whatever's handy. Still it's not a gain .
Next week probably will be as it's Birthday tomorrow and there will be cake as son has bought me a small Belgian choc cake from sainsbobs and a pouch of maltesers to put on the top . Not sure if we are going for a meal if not then its a roast so that will be ok. Have bought cakes for staff room at work but stuff I don't like so won't be tempted. I'm not usually anyway but expect some people will try to tempt me as is for my birthday.
Sitting here and tickly throat has started so hope that doesn't mean sore throat on way

Well done to all the peeps who have reached their targets :j

Afternoon all!
I'm back from exile with unfortunately a 1.5 gain however I'm working hard to get that off. On my old pal the exercise bike at the mo me and OH are off out for a little celebration tonight as I got TMA01 back- with a distinction! I've been to uni twice before and the highest mark I've ever had was 61 but I've smashed that :j were going to see the Muppets movie and for drinks before it however I'm going to be good and just have a couple of vodka and diet Cokes tried on my dress for awards ball yesterday (needed my magic knickers ) and couldn't believe it was me- I wondered who the slinky impostor in the size 14 dress was suddenly all the blood sweat and tears seemed worth it- so maybe that's something to remember everyone when you get disillusioned- remember you're fabulous and it will at some point all be worth it

Today's menu:
B: HEXB porridge with cherry Mullerlight, made with HEXA milk, followed by bacon minus fat, coffee with HEXA remainder
L: Big bowl of mixed salad with tikka pieces and pease pudding, Mullerlight with black cherry underlayer (1.5 syns) pint of NAS cordial
Litre of Buxton water while exercising
T: Pasta bolognaise with extra lean mince, WW pasta sauce (2.5 syns) fresh rasps and strawberries, NAS cordial
Cinema snack: 2 Pink Lady Apples, Diet Coke
Weekend drinks: 2 small vodka and diet cokes
Syns: 9
Body Magic: Mile walk round shops 45 mins on the bike
Hope everyone's ok xx
