Just hopped out of the pond to say hello :beer:.

I'm a bit fed up of hearing about everyone's losses, boring boring boring! I want to boast about my gain, because it's been HUGE :cool: Top girl you are an amature ~ 10lb? Rubbish matey, I've put on 3st 10lb in 4 months. Now that's impressive isn't it?

I was 13st at Christmas, and I hopped on the scales today and I'm now 16st 10lb :eek: It's obvious how I did it. I've stuffed and stuffed. And stuffed some more.

So I'm trying again. Now I've won the prize for gaining the most, I've beaten all of you, so now I'll show you all how I can lose it. And I'm gonna win

Shala, if you don't mind me joining in again, would you say I'll go for 20lb

Hope you all had a nice Easter. I'll hop on next Monday morning and collect my prize for Slimmer of the Week :T

I'm so willing you to achieve your target Frogga, baby steps first. Knowing you, you'll get your challenge target in a couple of weeks :A. You go girl, draw that line with a fresh start :A.

I make mine with out a jar. I use:

4 gloves of garlic
loads of black pepper
2 beef oxo cubes
two tins of tinned toms.
mince - real and soya mince
onion
mushrooms
peppers
1 grated carrot
one stick of celery
1 diced courgette
red lentils
tin of kidney beans
tin of baked beans

Fry off mince, add spices and garlic then whack in slow cooker with everything else.


Breakfast - 4 x ryvita with light philli, apple
Lunch - turkey, lettuce, tomato, pepper, melon, pinapple
Tea - egg, onion, mushrooms and baked beans with a yoghurt and fruit


Snacks Burtons fish and chips (took me right back to my childhood) However they are far to tasty and I need the rest removing from my house or I will eat them all! Banana, grapefruit


Syns packet of burtons fishand chips 6 Garlic and herb light philly 2. Milk in cuppas 2. TOTAL 10

Walked for an hour today with son in pram. Will try to get in the bike later one for at least 10 minutes.

Thanks. Problem I'm having is hubby is fussy and won't try much new so it's making it difficult as I don't want to cook separate for me all the time.

Tea - SW spaghetti carbonara and salad

Saving for a day out on Sunday this week so 105 - 3.5 = 101.5 left for the week.

Well Top Boy's dad took him out for food at dinner time so he was too full for carbonara for tea and I wasn't making it just for me so instead, I had 8 Quorn mini kievs for 4 syns, I parboiled some new potatoes and baked in fry light and had half a plate of superfree salad with it.

The mini kievs are really nice and at half a syn each, not at all bad, I was stuffed afterwards, I will definitely be keeping some in the freezer in the future.

105 - 6 = 99 left for the week.

Meal plan for tomorrow

Breakfast - mushroom omelette and an apple

Dinner - tuna pasta salad and pineapple and kiwi

Tea - SW chicken korma and vegetable rice from this month's mag.

HEXA - milk

HEXB -- Alpen light bars

Syns - 1 for the mayo, 2 for an options tomorrow night.

99 - 3 = 96.

Wish me luck.

shala I got weighed this morning and have lost 1lb but not sure if today is the first weigh in for the challenge, or whether it will be next week.

I haven't been feeling too well today and just couldn't be bothered to cook or anything. Had a Red day:

Breakfast - Banana, Mullerlight.

Lunch - Bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich (HEB), 2 mandarins

Tea - Turkey salad, Mullerlight, 2 kiwifruit.

Supper - Cheese (HEBA), sandwich (HEB), Highlights (2 syns) made with milk (HEA).

My son insisted on giving me one of his Wispa bars which I haven't eaten yet but might do later, 11 syns:eek:

Evening

Another boring day today

B - porridge/ milk A/B with strawberries, grapes and banana
L - tuna pasta 4.5 syns for the salad cream. I added mushrooms and onion for some super free. I am having the rest for lunch tomorrow.
D - KFC style chicken and rainbow salad.

Syns - Creme egg 8.5, salad cream 4.5 as above.

First weigh in of the challenge tomorrow. I think the running is affecting my weight loss, but I will stick with it.

mummyroysof3, my husband is a really fussy eater too! He won't eat anything like rice or pasta, or any dairy foods, the only vegetables he'll eat are white cabbage, carrots and peas and he won't try anything new. We've come to the agreement that if I'm cooking something he won't eat, he cooks his own meal. Our son has the choice of having what I'm having, or whatever his dad is having. He usually plumps for what his dad is having, which is usually something with chips. Maybe that's why I prefer Green days....:rotfl:

Hubby doing a bit of clearing out and has found my original SW pack. I got to target.... Wait for it....... 8 years ago :eek: can't believe it #thud!!! Got my lifetime certificate too so could go back if I wanted although I'd be below that target as I reset at home. Must have been at the new target (top end now) for about 6.5 years. Makes me think :eek:. Some people I've worked with in the last 5 years have never seen me any bigger than I am now. Going for a lie down to get over the shock :rotfl:

Well done TIA, that is a huge achievement. I've never been there myself (hopefully get there this time) but from speaking to target members in group it is a lot harder remaining at target then actually getting there. I have full respect to you, and the other target members posting on here.
