    Well done on the loss Deja Vu.


    I only have Yorkshires with roast beef. I would be even fatter if I had them every time I do a joint :)


    No mayo or horseradish in mine, but can't share my recipe as you aint family.

    Afternoon all :) WI this morning -2lbs. I'm a bit surprised at that as I had a bad weekend, overindulged on Friday night :o and too many carbs on Saturday. I'll have to really stick to plan this week so it doesn't catch up with me next week.

    I've now got exactly 1 stone to go for my target - I'm expecting it to get a bit harder now? I know that I should put a little exercise into the mix, but some mornings the joints just don't want to cooperate :(

    Right, i'm going to Nando's next week, but don't know what to have
    I wouldn't eat the corn on the cob or spicy rice
    Is the Lemon & Herb butterfly chicken 3 syns also? It only lists the plain
    What is worse is i'm going with my best friend, a superfit Personal Trainer who can eat the whole restaurant & stay looking fab! He has offered to eat anything I can't have (eg just have half the chips, i'll have the rest lol)

    Cannot beat a good Yorkshire pudding. There's a good recepie on BBC food guide I often made with an old service user.

    Quite surprised this week, that surprised that I went down to tesco to weigh again as I thought boots scales were wrong (esp as mum had lost 3lbs too - probably frog marching her out the door without having a gallon of coffee this morning lol) but I've

    -4lbs

    To say I'm surprised is an understatement as I've eaten quite a bit as we went horse racing Wednesday, darts Wednesday, out for a wetherspoons curry Thursday plus a few other bits so quite astounded to be honest. Plus started making my own popcorn after my service user talked me through the recepie.

    Hope everyone's feeling a bit better. Well done to the losers, keep going all. Loses as a groups doing great. Sorry you've been back in hospital too Katheryna, look after yourself and don't be too tough on yourself

    Welcome newbies too :)

    L-pasta sauce (2 syns) grapes
    D- steak and savory rice with corn on the cob, hm coleslaw (2syns)
    He A is milk for cuppas

    I have bananas and satsumas to nibble on.

    I really want a loss this week after the maintain last week. I seem to have a big loss, a maintain, a small loss repeat.... I still have 5st to lose and it's getting tiresome!!

    Hugs to all that need them!

    Mrs R - definitely agree you should go off plan for your graduation. You've done a lot of hard work to get there. Enjoy!

    Sorry to hear you've been back in hospital Kathryn. Hope things are better now. Don't beat yourself up. Just stick with the adage "good when you can, careful when you can't". Hospital food is the pits!

    Welcome to any newbies. Congratulations to all the losers this week - I wasn't one of them after my 8 week holiday! Hoping to join you all this week.

    Have been a bit synful this weekend with wine syns so need to be good until WI on Thursday. Have 5-6 syns a day left so easily doable.

    Today's plan:

    B - up too late to have any!
    L - (brunch really): hash brown pizza with scrambled eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon; 10g emmantel cheese (2 syns)
    D - pulled pork wrap; HM BBQ sauce; HM coleslaw (HEB + 1)

    HEA - milk
    HEB - WW wrap

    Syns - cheese 2; LTL mayo 1

    Have some fruit or SW hummous/carrot sticks to snack on if needed.

    Well done Chris and Dawyldthing on your losses.

    I'm afraid I don't know the syns TigerLily. If the plan is on the app and the marinade is on the app, I think you just need to make a best guess.
