Well I am back STS please Shala well at least it wasn't the gain that my scales were saying, going to throw them out I think.
Right going to get the books out and plan again, also check that I have my syns right.

HI all - oh what fun you're all having.

Lantanna, if you have a canary on the scales, you'll weigh more!

Shala 1lb off for me please Shala I hoped for more but hey ho, that's the breaks. Don't think I'll manage 4 off be next Monday - and I don't weigh in until Tuesday; I may resort to a sneaky early WI.

Tuesday's Menu

Breakfast: mackerel fillets in tomato sauce on hexb toast
Lunch: butternut squash soup, roast chicken and lo salsa
Dinner: spaghetti bolognese with hexa parmesan
Snack: chocolate digestive (3 syns), 1 Werthers Original (1 syn)

Total: 4 syns (so far)
Syns Bank Balance: 101 for 6 days

Top Girl - hope your back improves soon.

Lush, what part of Newcastle are you staying in? There's a massive Asda beside the Metro Centre and a Morrisons at Tynemouth. If you are staying somewhere in between I may be able to point somewhere out to you? Xx

Shala, I lost 3lbs this week. I've fallen short of my 10lbs for the challenge if next Tuesday doesn't count, but I'm happy with 8lbs off (and I blame Hubby for having a birthday which caused me to gain!!). I also still need 2lbs off to get my 3 stone award, so that's my target this week Xx

Thank you all for your good wishes. A little easier through the day but not ideal. Might try and flip my mattress.

Slight change of plan, made SW quiche for tea and already had milk allowance so 3 syns for 20g of low fat cheese? Morrisons NuMe cheddar? That and an options for 5 in total, had it with chips and salad.

Good luck to all those WI tonight :j

Hi all :hello:
PLMBL, is the Morrisons not at North Shields? I seem to recall my college just being up the road from it. I'm happy to be corrected tho I think it's near John Spence school and Tynemouth Pool.
Lush, there's a Co-op on the Main Street in Tynemouth where you could get some fruit but I'm struggling to think of anywhere else along there you might get some- I don't know if you know Tynemouth but it's full of fish and chip shops, pubs and not a great deal else..!!
Busy day today. Up early for the dryer being repaired then spent an arduous 3 hours applying for a job :mad: cleared some more stuff out my wardrobe and re-packed my bag for student conference this weekend (just as well I did- I usually forget my socks but this time I had forgot my bras! ) and then I had to have a nana nap to top it all off I've got a blocked ear and it's mega sore :mad: no time for any body magic today will have to do some tomorrow.
Today's menu- EE.
B: Scrambled eggs with 45ml of semi skimmed (total 1.5 syns for that and the milk on my coffee) tinned tomatoes, 3 HEXB Ryvita cracked black pepper, Worcester sauce, cup of coffee.
L: Big mixed salad, tuna, 3x tbsps sweet chilli dressing (1.5 syns) Frappucino with HEXA semi skimmed, mango chunks with 0% Activia. NAS cordial.
Snack: cheese twist (2 syns)
T: diet coke Quorn, Uncle Ben's Thai Chilli rice (2.5 syns) fresh peach, pear and 2 x kiwis cut into slices. NAS cordial
S: steamed mixed veg with Worcester sauce
Syns: 7.5
Hope everyone's ok xxx

Aw thanks we are staying about 10minutes from Tynemouth but we get a few of wonder bairn's things from ASDA so may tie our Metrocentre visit in with nipping in there as we need a few bits for her it's about 4 years since my only other visit to the Metrocentre and I can't remember much if i'm honest!

Bf has agreed to Harvester/my plan of an earlier main meal though - winner

I have created myself a mini food diary style slip on MS Word (space to note three meals, snacks, syns (15 numbered boxes to cross off), healthy extras (an A box and a B box) and also drinks (8 numbered boxes to cross off as a fluid intake goal)) I think they will help me get back on track

I'm wondering if slimming world really works?

Can you really eat that much food and lose weight? And eat that many carbs?

This was my first week (just weighted in) and I lost 1 1/2 lb but I did MASSES of exercise (28 mile cycle, started jogging, walking). Thought I would have lost a bit more

My two friends didn't really follow the plan but both seemed to really cut what they were eating and both lost 4 1/2 lb.

Feeling a bit dispondent. I am bigger than them (12.12) but I do drink a lot of alcohol and neither of them drink.
