Hi MrsE, and welcome. Of course you can join, the more the merrier. Everyone here is friendly and welcoming so I'm sure you'll get plenty of help and motivation from the board

I was thinking of going on the sw web page & printing off their weekly meal plans to start, also woman has a feature on sw this week, also got meal plans and good to know recipes have a webpage with slimming world dishes on it.

Potato skins sound amazing yemma is it your own recipe?

Some great loses peeps, don't despair if you have gained or maintained, it will come off in the long run

It's so simple, not sure it qualifies as a recipe I baked the potato in the oven for an hour, scooped the middle out and mixed it with ham, spring onion and a tablespoon of quark (for one potato, I used Philly for the bf) then put it back in the skin. Topped with HEA cheese over both halves and put back in the oven for ten minutes. I really enjoyed it! Had with some salad bits.

Snack - kiwi, strawberries, melon.

Still have a HEA and a HEB left. Currently trying to decide whether to use or lose them. Haven't had any syns today either.

Evening,

Welcome MrsE. Well done to you losers!

Annie I hope the migraine has improved today. I have them occasionally, and they make me feel very sick, I get tunnel vision, and have flashing lights in my eyes. I've not had it make me have the squits before though. They're horrible things, so sending a gentle hug your way.

A busy day here for me baking all day, and as a consequence I ate at weird times during the daytime.

Decided to have a Green day today:

B - banana
brunch - Strawberries, banana, Total yogurt split pot (2)
Later lunch - lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, pickled onions, carrots, chicken slices (HeB1), sprinkle of cheese from HeA1
D - baked potato rest of cheese from HeA1, lettuce, cucumber, tomato, celery, carrots, pickled onion, LF dressing (0.5)
Snacks - Jacobs Oddities (5.5), rich tea (2), digestive (4)
HeA2 - milk
HeB2 - 2 x Alpen lights (old ones I found in stock in Tesco today - yay!)
Total syns = 14

It's unlike me to use up so many syns on rubbish foods, but at least it was within plan.

I think I'm craving sweet things because * is looming. I'm a few days late, having been a whole week early last month. Must be my age! Be glad when they stop altogether tbh.

That's my favourite one or at least the one that best resonates tonight. I had a difficult work phone call and then fell into a wine glass.:o

WOW!!!! Brilliant Lantanna!:T:T:T


Welcome MrsE, I agree that trying the suggested 7 day menu on the website is an excellent way to get started. Do you have a plan? Are you joining a group? Going online? Just ask if you have any questions.


Glad you're back online denise. I'm on target but reall want to get to the bottom of my target range before my holiday but made a very poor start tonight.:(
