Be Lean for Halloween with Slimming World

Matron_Midge

-1/2LB for me at class this morning.
I resisted the temptation to wear lightweight clothing today, even though it is warm and sunny, I thought that with Autumn weather looming I would go in my jeans and then I can't blame heavy denim for any STS or gain in the next few weeks.
Today's food.
He a skimmed milk
He b ?
B banana
L sw quiche and salad
D chicken and broccoli pesto pasta (I'll have to check syns for pesto)
Snacks mango, nectarine and He b

Back to work


I've been starving all morning too and have just eaten my dinner - long afternoon ahead.


Mushroom omelette and beans


D) Leftover cottage pie, apple, banana, alpen light


T) Unsure yet


I have a punnet of strawberries, another alpen light and a mug shot to get me through the next three hours!


BM - The usual commute and a big clean when I get in.


HEXA - Milk in tea.


Have a lovely afternoon all!

I love the accounting for your syns, very responsible. I generally start from 105 on a Thursday after WI (even if I don't go) and subtract from there although it tends to be Friday evening before I use many. These days I just do it mentally but I used to write it down when I was getting to target.


What's with the stars?


I'm going to use 'real' ham in my hash today. Some of the tins I've had recently look a bit too fatty to be free so I chopped up some of the gammon joint I cooked at the weekend. Which brand of tinned ham does anyone else use (assuming you do)?


Today's EE plan:
B: NAS grapefruit, 2 boiled eggs, HEB toast, HEA milk for drinks
L: cold pork and fried veg with pickles
Austrian hash (carrots, mushrooms, courgette, onion, celery) with runner beans
Syns: 2/3 for chorizo in hash, cheese (hopefully offset from HEA) and Benefit bar.

1st day back on plan after 3 weeks off/holibobs!!

B - raspberries and Lidl free raspberry Skyr yog/quark thingy

L - met with DD and sat opposite her while she ate a huge club sarnie and a slice of delicious looking Jamie dodger cake!! I had a pot of tea and a diet coke

When I got home I had 1/2 of the baked oat cakes HEB I made this morning, dipped into Lidl blueberry Skyr and 2 Jaffa easy peelers.

T - I have got a home made SW stir fry out of the freezer, no idea which one it is (I must start to label left overs before I freeze them) :rotfl: I can see there is lots of speed veggies and noodles.

Snacks - I can eat the other 1/2 of my oaty "fairy" cakes and have loads of fruit ready to keep me going.

some fantastic losses rolling in - I'm hoping to lose a bit at weigh in tomorrow and still be within my temporary target range. Still miffed that I've not done better this time around on Slimming World but I need to get over that gripe!


Not expecting to have lost all of last weeks gain but at least 1lb of it should have shifted this week.


Today:
breakfast: wheatbran breakfast 'cake' 1syn for 50g chopped strawberries cooked in to it
lunch: staff update day so the boss treated us to lunch out. for a change I was super good and had a rump steak with onions, mushrooms and tomato (3 syns for oil but I did ask for it to be dry), a free jacket (done properly wrapped in foil in the oven!) and peas on the side. my usual soft drink which is free
tea: I am stuffed from lunch so not expecting to eat anything at home later!
syns: 3 chocs from a box of celebrations = 7.5syn + the 3 allowed for the oil above
hea: 250ml semi skimmed milk


not drinking wnough again or walking as much as usual recently


beanie - do rest and get better soon

Thanks for the chart shala, can I change mine to a target of 12lbs to lose in the 8 weeks or so?

Can I join the Halloween challenge please - 14lbs is going to be my target!

Thanks Lois Lane. I'll go for 12lbs then.

All done

Well done on that loss rjhammond :T you may want to up your challenge target - you're only 2lb off it!

Hugs beanie and mrsR! Gentle ones though

Have you tried PB2 or similar topgirl? It's powdered peanut butter with the fat content lowered so that you get a lot more for your syns. The cheapy version we have is 2 tbsps. powder = 50 cals so 2.5 syns.

Lush, could you post the recipe for your wheatbran cake please? Unless you've already posted it and I've missed it thought I could use up the oatbran i have in the cupboard using your recipe Thanks everso..

Went into Icel*nd today and got some hot and spicy chicken fillet thingies to cheer myself up as i'm in a proper mood they had that new chicken BBQ meal in there - the recipe looks pretty simple so I might just try making it instead of buying it. I'm sure the recipe used to be on the Icel*nd website.. must check. Will link it if I find it, anyone tried the meal yet?

e.t.a. it's not on the icel*nd website but it is on SW's http://www.slimmingworld.co.uk/recipes/smoky-barbecue-chicken.aspx

e.t.a. part 2 - anyone read the recipe - 700g chicken and it serves 2????? That's got to be wrong surely?

Good to see a loss there, Midge and New Me.

Oh, maman, the stars are a mistake! I didn’t notice they were there! I was trying out some different fonts at the bottom of my post (I do it in Word then copy it into the forum, because I was fed up losing my posts!). I am doing my best to keep myself accountable – even if my eating habits aren’t helping, I’m trying with the numbers, lol. I tried the 105 start and counting down and that was fine, just thought this might help me keep a tighter rein.

Wednesday’s Wonders
Pre-Breakfast: banana
Breakfast: raspberries, strawberries, kiwi, ff natural Greek yogurt, hexb 2 Ryvita with WW cheese triangle (1)
Snack: chocolate ginger (4)
Lunch: baked potato, Heinz 5 Beanz, rest of hexa grated cheese

Banked: 3 syns Banked Total: 5 syns

See you all tomorrow.
