Hello all - flying visit...checking in with a 1/2 lb loss

Getting a bit fed up with 1/2 lb and 1 lb losses...a girl I know literally binged last weekend and lost 4 lbs!! Ah well - a loss is a loss and I've not gained since I started...14.5 off...my DD and I are going to try the scranbran challenge this week to see if that makes any difference...and count my weekend wine which I haven't actually been doing...onwards...

All those 0.5lb and 1lbs add up that lady may well struggle this week to loose or be over-exaggerating what she actually binged on..

Good luck with the scan bran _pale_

When's cheesecake day? excitedly waiting for pictures...

Weird day here.. got nothing to do and no plan, just sitting around waiting for my next meal and watching the clock go by :rotfl:

Menu plan for today
B (late) - sausage sandwich (heb + 2.5syns)
L - fruit (apple, orange, strawbs) yogurt
T - kebabs, mint yogurt, onion salad, lettuce wraps, cheese (0.5 hea)
S - crisps (4) milk (0.5 hea)

I've ordered some muller goodies (coconut ones), think they're 2.5 syns each so i'll have one of those later if they arrive...

Have a good weekend xx

Afternoon all

Lovely weather here - the sun is out.

Very quiet here again, the people who are away are obviously the biggest chatters.

Yes, 2.5 syns is right. I've got some of the lemon ones in the fridge and last week I had the chocolate and toffee ones. I haven't seen coconut ones, let us know what they're like so I can decide whether to try them.

Well done gfb - every loss is worth having.

What's the scanbran challenge? I can't stand the stuff myself, so I won't be doing it, but others might be interested.

I'm another one guilty of not counting weekend wine syns - well not properly anyway. I keep my syns as low as possible all week knowing I'm going to have wine but I probably have more wine than I have enough banked syns for IYSWIM.

Yesterday I made a pan full of ratatouille which we had with salmon and couscous, then today I made some meatballs and added the leftover ratatouille and we had it with pasta for lunch (our main meal of the day today) - it was really nice.

It's fish and chip night again so we're open late and then we'll want something quick and easy. Not sure what it's going to be yet, possibly a bacon and tomato sandwich. I've got a couple of cooked BGTY sausages in the fridge too, so might add one of those, but definitely no black pudding! :rotfl:

Have a good evening.

Just had it, it was nice.. the yogurt could probably be a bit more coconutty for me but then I do love coconut. I feel like I've had dessert now anyway so it did the job

Have you had your gin and tonic jelly yet?

I can't wait to try the new hifi bars too - coconut macaroon - what's not to like :drool: well the size I suppose :rotfl: they'll be tiny like the others

Coconut mullers are good..
One good result of my high pain levels ATM is I dont really want to eat.
Today I have had a banana, melon, & a roast beef roll.
Not even chocolate even though someone bought emergency supplies of chocolate ~~smartie chocolate even!!

Oh & someone made me a SW knickerboker glory the other day~~it was well lush.
2 1/2 syns I think so well worth it.

No - I decided I wanted to replicate Not Nigella's jellies exactly so I've been looking for cocktail glasses, so far no joy, apart from some oversized ones in the Range that I considered :rotfl: but decided against as the syns wold be sky high.

I don't usually buy hifi bars as Hebs are too precious to waste, but I might reconsider for coconut macaroon - :drool: - I could always syn them.

So following this girl I talked about who had her binge and then lost 4 lbs this week (ok - please forgive me if I'm being a bit@h lol) so going through her insta page...she posts all her food, and her weight losses but if you look close enough you can see that she doesn't post any gains...and if I do the maths right our consultant announced her half stone today which means that if I'm correct she lost 4 lb this week then she must have gained 3 lb last week and didn't announce it...not cool...if you're going to post your journey...be honest.

SO RAGING about my cheesecake...I paid extra postage on getting that stevia icing *sugar* and it hasn't arrived yet...I totally wanted that cheesecake for a dessert tomorrow

And thanks for the encouragement...any loss is good so I shouldn't complain.
