  • Well done Losers :)


    DH says he will try to follow sw but then doesn't understand why he has to weigh his cheese and limit bread etc... Very frustrating! But he said his pain today has given him a fright so you never know!

    Hope you all have a lovely weekend :)

    Well done on the loss shala (and to all the other losers this week!).

    Thanks for all the wishes for DH - he's currently sitting on the sofa playing some NFL game on his playstation so he's happy. In a bit of pain but we get to take the bandages off today so he's excited about seeing just how bad the bruising is. Men...*sigh*

    Meal plan is a bit up in the air as DH keeps changing his mind on what he want's to eat (letting him decide this week as he's been through it a bit). But I am managing to stick to plan! Hopefully today is looking like this:

    B - Weetabix (HEB and 1/2 HEA), 2 clementines
    L - Speed soup, carrot sticks, celery
    D - Sausage and fennel pasta with cheese (2 syns and 1/2 HEA), mixed salad leaves, cucumber
    S - Strawberries and blueberries with FF yogurt, hot chocolate (2.5 syns)

    Have also managed to keep up the exercise this week, so will finish the 4 week program on Sunday. I can see that my arms and legs are a lot more toned and my bum has got a bit smaller. Maybe all these aches are worth it after all?!

    I suspect he understands only too well but......;)


    I know I probably come across as bossy but I just stopped buying cheese except for high days and holidays. I love it myself so it was easier to just almost ban it from the house while I was getting to target. I bought occasional Laughing Cow triangles but that was about it. I buy my DH a few biscuits but only enough for 1 or 2 a day and he does eat more bread than me (lunchtime sandwich) but I think men are allowed more syns anyway. Tough Love!!!:rotfl:


    Today's EE plan:
    B: NAS grapefruit, HEB bread, HEA milk for drinks
    L: ham with fried veg and pickles
    D: fish parcels, SW chips, green stuff (asparagus, peas, mange tout, broccoli?)
    Syns: scrape of spread, weekend wine:j
