I forgot to check in last week - I got my 1/2 stone award and I was slimmer of the week :-) happy girly

This week though has been shocking. I have been so stressed that my eating has kind of been forgotten about and I have been focusing on my son.

I took him to the doctors for a check up on a lump on his neck and came out with blood tests, chest x-rays and a referral to the paediatric department so this week I have stress eaten and Ill be honest I am dreading Tuesday when I weigh in. We were lucky to get his bloods and x-ray done the same day but now its been a horrid waiting game of results which I expect will come tomorrow......

Either way I get a feeling I will be + a few pounds this week unless Im very lucky

Morning all,

Sammy, I do hope the results come back ok xx

We had a bit of a discussion at class this week about exercise and weight loss, and lots of people see a drop in losses when they exercise or up the amount of exercise they are doing. Could you measure yourself instead Mary and see if you are dropping inches? It may be more motivational than the number on the scales.

How was your Fakeaway Mary? Ours was disappointing the Bombay potatoes were just a bit dull, although I liked the bhajis. Might try the tikka next, but I find it easier just to buy the sauce ready made

Popped to lid1 yesterday and they only had a bit of Xmas stuff out so I got 1 bag of gingerbread and some stollen bites. Probably for the best as I don't need to eat any of it. I did pick up the pulled beef to try tonight though, 2 syns for the pack. Hope it's nice!

Menu for today
Brunch - baked oats or waffles
Tea - pulled beef, bns chips, salad, corn, pickles
Snacks - beetroot, crisps (5), melon

Disappointed with a 1lb gain. Can't understand why as been on plan and within Syns. Only thing I can think is I have had more carbs than last week

Sorry to hear lots of disappointments today, would it be more motivational to look at what you've all lost over a month time period than focus just on one week?

Our bodies are weird things, hormones and water retention play a big part in our weight results so even though we've been on plan etc it could be that we're retaining water.

Keep at it, it should show up on the scales next week xx

Hope you get good news very soon Sammy.:)
:T to you and wiz and duchy on your losses.

You should try the Hairy Bikers braised steak wiz, it makes fabulous gravy and it's free. We're having it tonight.:drool:


The HM pork burgers we had last night were delicious and very mse as the mince came YS from Sainsbury's.:)


I'm one who got to target with almost no exercise. I rarely snack unless I need have dinner very early when I might have something before bed. Otherwise it's just a tiny bit of chocolate with a cuppa in the evening but as I don't have puddings I can live with that.


DH has eaten all his stollen bites from Lidl shala and now starting on the Aldi ones. Taste testing of course.;)


Today's EE plan:
B: NAS grapefruit, HEB porage, HEA milk
L: JP with veggie chilli and cottage cheese (switched from yesterday)
HB steaks (with onions and mushrooms), SW roast potatoes and parsnips, cauli, broccoli, carrots, red cabbage
Syns: weekend wine and maybe ginger chocolate.

I can't do links on my phone but if you Google Hairy Bikers' Braised Steak you'll find the recipe. The recipe says have it with chips and that's delicious but it works just as well with potatoes and veg. It only has one teaspoon of cornflour and as it's a recipe for 4 then any syns are negligible. You can freeze it but I just use 2 steaks and have lashings of gravy. I use beef medallions from Aldi but any braising steak will work.
