    Afternoon everyone

    Trying to have another SP day today as I had a sneeky peep this morning and things aren't looking too promising for tomorrow nights wi. :(. So today so far has been - Breakfast was just drinks as I felt a bit meh. Lunch was pea and ham soup then half apple, satsuma and half pear. Dinner tonight is lean lamb stewed with onion, mushrooms, carrots served with loads of cauli, brocolli and butter bean mash as far as I know. Supper will be hexs possibly cheese and beetroot sarnie(hexa and hexb 1) and the other hexb might be some almonds to nibble on whilst DH and I settle down and watch something on Netflix. I will try to leave the almonds with chocolate on alone and just have plain ones :p. DH added a spoonful of yoghurt into the full amount of pea and ham soup but I told him not to worry about it as all it would do is dilute the effect of SP if I have understood things correctly. Will probably munch of a bit more fruit (S) ones through the evening too.

    Well done on the latest losses. Some are getting off to a fab start on new challenge. Well done tweets on your lost inches too. I wouldn't have been able to get a tape measure long enough to measure me when I first started :rotfl: For anyone who is struggling to get back into it all, hang on in there and things will start shifting soon. ;)

    Welcome to our newbies. Keep popping in at least once a day if that is possible and I am sure that it does help in trying to keep motivated. It does get a bit difficult at times especially when things are so busy on this thread. There is usually someone around who can answer questions or if you just need someone to sound off to. :D

    Well I am ashamed to say that when I got in a little while ago I showered and washed hair then got straight into my pjs :eek: You can bet your bottom dollar we will get visitors tonight :rotfl:

    Good luck everone for the coming week.

    Lol lovely, I haven't been out of Pjs all day and refuse to feel ashamed.

    I love making a massive pan of rice pudding all for the cost of an HEA. If feeling a bit decadent, i make it with the alpro coconut drink instead


    Yes but you don't get a skin on it and to me that's the best bit.

    Well a disappointing food day for me today - I've not been able to eat most of my tea, it's making me gag.. not sure why. I feel sick even thinking about it!! :eek: I used the rest of Healthy extras and syns on it.. really annoyed, I hope I can just muddle on until bedtime without needed to eat anything extra.

    Fluff - i'd add another HEA just to make sure you're getting your calcium. Calcium helps with weight loss apparently so it won't hurt.

    Meg - hope your dinner turned out ok x

    tweets - great losses... :T

    Flateric - I've never seen nutracheck before, but it just looks like Myfitnesspal which is free. MFP might be a better choice.

    So for the challenge these are the people I am missing weigh ins for this week... let me know if I've missed your result and i'll update it..

    Thank you Shala, I did get a dinner but it wasn't the Roast Beef and all the trimmings I planned, was eatable but it was a STEW, last time I buy beef in morrisons I think.

    Lol lovely, I haven't been out of Pjs all day and refuse to feel ashamed.

    oh forgot to say the pjs were brand spanking new ones (2 pairs) i found whilst having a sort out. They are a 22 and quite loose so I had better get them worn. Kept them to one side as there were quite a few times my gp kept threatening to send me to hospital when meds wouldnt work but fortunately that didnt happen. :D

    SW only allow GF choices for coeliacs. If you arent coeliac, you arent supposed to choose the GF options

    If you dont like the texture of oats and want something more similar to readybreak, then just blitz the dry oats in a food processor

    That's a bit unfair on people with intolerances which can be nearly as bad as coeliacs in the pain department (as well as other departments :o).

    As for blitzing oats, I've tried that and it is nothing like ready brek. It went/tasted all gluey. Didn't like it at all :(.
    Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T
