I've been missing for a few days I fell off the wagon Thursday and Friday.. dominoes was had last night as well as icecream, doughnuts and proper oven chips the night before..

I've tried to make up for the slip today though and we've been to the gym twice! :rotfl: unheard of for me.. once for the gym and once for swimming - i'm now knackered! I've also walked to the hairdressers and back earlier..

So any gain I have this week is well deserved and i'm having hair extensions just before weigh in so I expect i'll weigh heavier anyway (that's my excuse and i'm sticking to it )

Todays food has been good.. we had a healthy BBQ of a sw burger in a lettuce wrap, chicken and BNS wedges. thought i'd take some pictures




Food today
Brunch - choc pancake (egg, cocoa, sweetner) 2, strawberries, yogurt
Late Lunch - sw burger, chipotle chicken 1, lettuce, cheese (0.5hea) onion chutney 2, butternut squash
Snacks - milk in tea (0.5 hea) apple, quark, ice lolly (2.5)

Hope everyone's well xxx

Can someone help me out please? I'm looking at the Extra Easy SP plan and i've just read a success story online and this lass said she did it and the hardest thing she found was that she wasn't allowed carbs like bread/rice/spuds etc. But my booklet says you can still have all your normal free foods.

So how does EE SP work? Is it just a matter of eating mostly SP foods?

if you read post 2 of this thread it explains it a bit and there are some links to other explanations..

Basically on SP days you should concentrate on eating half Speed foods and half Protein foods + your hea and 2 heb's + 5-15 syns

Rice, potatoes and pasta aren't either S or P so they are a no-no, but bread would be counted as part of your heb so would be ok within the limits of that.

hope this helps a bit

Well done, selement.

Hope to see you back, Swiper, when you’re feeling ready.

I’ve had a rotten week SW wise. All my own choosing, of course. I’ve only one lunch date planned for the coming week, so that should help me get back on track. And I do need to list my menus; I think not doing so has allowed me to go my own sweet way. Not shopped so will start posting again on Monday.

My menu today:

Breakfast: wholemeal toast (HEB) with 1/2 teaspoon Flora light (1/2 syn),marmite
a nectarine

Snack: apple

Lunch: cold Heck sausage (2.5 syns),mange tout,green pepper,plum tomatoes,2 eggs,laughing cow cheese cube (1/2 syn)

Snack: cheesecake ML (1 syn)

Tea: bacon,scrambled egg,baked beans,plum tomatoes,2 waffles (5 syns)

Dessert: meringue (2.5syns) with greek yoghurt and strawberries

Haven't had much tea (with milk allowance) today.

I was out today watching eldest daughter (age 13) competing in an inter-school event today.As part of that,there was a raffle,winners went to a table and chose their own prize.I won a draw,and when I got to the table of prizes the huge box of Maltesers had already been claimed (phew ).So I got the next best thing: a box of Guylian chocolates,AND a box of M+S biscuits :D.Boxes of temptation right there!!! My OH was joshing that I should have chosen bottles of alcohol.I pointed out to him that since I don't drink,and our children are aged 13 or under,he would be the only one that benefitted from that prize.Much better that I get something we can all enjoy.All of us.Honest Guv :rotfl::rotfl:.

Morning

I've gone a bit overboard on the syns for the last couple of days so I'm reining it in today and getting back on plan. On Friday I decided not to have any alcohol so during the day DH and I shared a cake, but by the end of the day the non-drinking resolve went out the window...:o More wine syns were consumed last night, but thankfully I still had syns left to use.

Speed foods yesterday were: carrots, sugarsnaps, nectarine, melon, onions, bns, and apple, so a bit low. Today will be better - salad for lunch and dinner to be decided (need to go shopping) but will include plenty of speed veggies.

Shala - the hair extensions are a great cover up for naughties :rotfl: Is this a regular thing, or is it for a special occasion?

Swipernoswiping - good luck, you're welcome back whenever you're ready to try again.

Have a good day everyone, onwards and downwards.

Good Morning

Was sat here melting yesterday evening when I heard the ice cream van
So grabbed my purse and went to the van and bought 2 ice cream cones I ate one and Poppy (my dog) ate the other one.

I know I was but really enjoyed the cone was Mr Whippy ice cream and I have no idea how many syns
Didn't eat anything else I shouldn't yesterday so should be ok :T
