    Good morning all,

    Well after my good WI yesterday I had a Chinese and alcohol last night. Can't actually remember the last time I had either of these so I don't feel too guilty. I had a veggie dish too to I feel like I had some speed! It was good but onwards today... if I think of the amount of take always I used to have, it's no wonder nothing fitted and I felt like rubbish. I do feel like SW, in making me do a lot of cooking from scratch, really improves my overall health, not just the numbers on the scales if you know what I mean. I could have got the same results from slimming shakes etc but I actually feel quite healthy which is great.

    BUBBS, I'll be making your lifesaver quiche today. I meant to tell you, I put blobs of Quark on top prior to cooking. I like quark and it gives a little bit of extra flavour and texture. It's so good for leftovers and so easy to make. Love it and I do appreciate it when you post images of your food, it always looks so good.

    I'm sorry TWEETS that Poppy is affected by the fireworks. It's a rubbish time of year for pets though luckily my two dogs don't seem to register fireworks or thunder. Don't quite understand this as they go bananas at any other kind of little noise. I hope she is okay poor pup, extra cuddles in order I think and for any other lovely pets out there.

    One quick point, any dog owners out there, be care of acorns, there seems to be an awful lot out there this year (I have never noticed them or had any issues in other years). One of my dogs got very poorly from eating them and had to stay in vet hospital and have multiple trips to the local vet in the last two weeks and a LOT of medication. He had gastritis and colitis and was a poorly pup indeed. He's almost recovered now but I have to be so careful where I walk now. Other people I have spoken to have also had issues and dogs in general seem to be picking them up this year. I think there must be a squirrel shortage!!

    BEANIE, I was trying to work out how to quote but haven't quite managed it, but thank you for your encouragement :A. I think I remember a little while ago that you were close-ish to the elevens and trying to get there?? Am I right on this? I'm there but at the top end so am trying to slowly work my way down. The encouragement on here from everyone is great and I don't know what I'd do without it. I hope you see the elevens soon x

    At the minute my weight is the only thing that is going well in my life so I am clinging onto that success. Pretty much everything that could go badly wrong is going badly wrong (apart from serious illness thank goodness) so I'm pretty impressed that I haven't hit the food big time which has always been my 'drug' of choice. My life may be a mess but I'm looking pretty good good on it!!:D I will keep smiling, keep plodding and I will turn things around. To anyone else out there gong through hard times for whatever reason, I wish you strength and courage and all good things x

    Well, time is moving on so I must get out to walk the dogs now, looks like a lovely morning and I need to walk this Chinese and cider off! X

    Think the Little blighters are all here! Our Y1 classes are part of the plant a tree scheme and we hardly found any acorns to plant. See plenty of squirrels every day though.
    Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T
    Keep the Faith All

    New thread will be starting on Tuesday, but it's never to late in a challenge to join us. We are a friendly and extremely supportive group.



    Good to know - I'm going to go conservative with my target...and then hope that I smash it ;)


    so today...littlie got me up at 5.30 (new time *yawn!*)
    early morning whilst she ate: muller light 2x nas squash
    brunch: omelette (no cheese) pack with spinach, red pepper, tomato and mushroom with 3 syns light mayo, cup of tea (milk from hea)
    before going out: coop bakery cookie..10 syns...NOT WORTH IT! nice but not 10 syns nice...could have had 2 freddos ha
    when we got home whilst the others munched on burger king I had myself a muller light and a carrot cake hifi (1/2heb)
    tea: chicken with tomatoes, spinach, tomatoes, new potatoes and baked beans. 2 syns light mayo


    so that's todays syns gone but I have almost all my hea left so I'm going to have a cuppa or two and also a hifi to round off my heb


    tomorrow littlie is back to school (as far as we know) so I'll be at the gym for 45-60 mins first thing
    breakfast will be scrambled eggs, spinach and ham with a cup of tea
    lunch will be chicken, spinach, tomato, snack cucumber, beetroot
    tea: jacket potato with ham, more salad bits
    snacks: orange, strawberries, potential hifis as heb
    hea: semi skimmed milk. depending how I go I may use half and have some cheese on my tea :)


    want to try and keep syns low due to being a little over last couple of days. I will keep off the syn-ned snacks in order to have a hot choc with light aerosol cream in the evening :)


    can you tell I cooked a whole chicken in the slowcooker :rotfl:
