    Great loss whiz & dutchy :j
    Welcome Allotrope to our lovely thread :)
    Keep posting!

    Ditto!

    I've done HB in the slow cooker but definitely need to thicken the gravy on the hob as it doesn't thicken like it does in the oven. I much prefer to do it in the oven.

    Today's plan:

    B - Beans on toast
    L - LO HB beef, cabbage & mash (1 syn as I added a glass of red wine to it yesterday for 6 syns and got 6 portions from it)
    D - sausages, egg, chips, mushrooms

    HEA - milk
    HEB - bread
    Syns - butter 4; HB beef 1

    Keeping syns low this week to make up some of the extras over the weekend.

    Hi all..

    Trying to be golden today :A OH text me to say he's eaten all the biscuits in the house last night so I wont be tempted anymore.. he's a good un :rotfl:

    Good luck with 7777 Lois, :D you've just motivated me to go and get another glass of water. I wasn't going to bother doing it this week but needs must!

    Menu today
    B - oranges, yogurt, choc shot (0.5), oats (0.5heb)
    L - homemade chicken noodle soup - chicken, carrots, onion, leeks, stock etc
    T - chicken egg fried rice, (peppers, onions in it)
    S - 2 satsumas, crisps (3.5) popcorn (3) apple

    Still have 0.5 heb left in case I need a hifi bar :T and the popcorn is for snacking later when OH is out (my danger time)

    so 7 speed foods, 7 syns, and hopefully by the end of the evening 7 glasses of water!

    Have a good day xxx

  • Well done chocomonsta for sotw! And thank you Shala for the chart!

    Food today has been -

    B - weetabix (HeB)
    L - tuna salad
    D - kfc style chicken thighs and veg
    Snacks - carrot and cucumber sticks
    Syns - ummmm... I think a curly wurly (6) tonight!
    Milk in tea and cereal for my HeA.

    Weigh in tomorrow. I'm hoping just for a tiny loss, although I've not been at all naughty this week I feel all bloated and gross. Think my ibs is playing up but haven't eaten anything different to make it go crazy! Never mind!

    Xxx
  • Well done Chocomonsta !

    And thanks Shala also.

    Hubby went out tonight so I've had mackerel and veg & even though he's come home and complained about the smell....I enjoyed it!

    Can't get over the price increase of muller yogurts ...anyone have a more MSE option?

    Went swimming as well this morning & going again tomorrow.
  • Morning all

    SOTW :T woo hoo Thank you

    weighed in last night with 1.5 off which although I was hoping for half a stone :p is going in the right direction and I am happy with

    Morning

    Thanks for the chart Shala and well done chocomonsta for SOTW. :T

    Shala, I'm not sure if your oh deserves a medal or a slap for eating all the biscuits- very noble of him! :rotfl:

    Well, yesterday started well, and continued exactly to plan until 10pm and then some celebratory wine Syns were consumed. :o. DH and I went to a whist drive in the evening and just before we left I received a cryptic text message from our friends so we went round to see them straight from whist to find they'd had an offer accepted on a place round the corner from us. So I had more than 7 Syns! Back to plan today...
    Can't get over the price increase of muller yogurts ...anyone have a more MSE option?.

    When I'm in the uk I buy WW yogurts which are generally £1 for a pack of 4 and they're free on SW. I like the dessert recipe ones in particular.

    Tuesday is usually shopping day for us but I discovered last night that today is a Spanish holiday so the shops are shut :mad: DH is out all day tomorrow playing golf, and there's another holiday on Thursday. DH was planning to have the car for golf but I've told him he'll have to get a lift or live on salad for 3 days as that's all there is in the fridge.

    Have a good day everyone.

    LL :)
