Hello all- I’m back!
I’m cream crackered though I was at the Steps gig last night at Newcastle Arena and it was absolutely amazing- had a ball and even managed to stay on plan Mum made me a massive speed and free tea before I left- Quorn Swedish meatballs in passata with veg and butternut squash spaghetti- and I took fruit, popcorn and Alpen Light bars with me to snack on. I also treated myself to an alcohol free beer for 3.5 syns. Travelled back today- it’s been a long old day and I’m worn out! A sneaky weigh tells me I’ve managed to pull it back pretty well, I’ve booked a hol but will decide tomorrow if I’m going to go and weigh and get it out the way my size 18 jeans still fit though so at least that’s something I’ve just booked for me and OH to go away for New Years Eve so that’s a bit of an incentive to stay on plan for me.
Today’s menu:
B: HEXB Oats so Simple Big Bowl Porridge sachet made with HEXA s/s, water, fresh rasps
L: Boots Shapers Sushi (1 syn) Boots Shapers Sweet Chilli Chicken Sushi salad (2.5 syns) Popchips (4.5 syns) Apple, strawberry and grape pot, 2 x easy peelers, orangina light (2 syns) water (all this was consumed over about a 4 hour period not all at once :rotfl:)
T: Aldi Lamb Rogan Josh (1.5 syns) green beans, carrots, baby corn, peas, sugar snaps, tender stem broccoli, salad onions, mushrooms. 2 x Alpen Lights (6 syns) water
Syns: 17.5
Night all xxxxx

Ohh thanks! SOTW!

Ironic that WI tomorrow is now likely to be a massive gain! This week has been a bit of a write off SW wise. Was out for a very early xmas party on Thursday. Friday was a night out involving much alcohol and a drunken Maccy D's stop! Friday was hungover munchies then fish and chips from the chippy for tea (I had pie/ not the good fish with no batter trick) Then tonight we've been out to Chimichangas where we had nachos, burritos and then a banana burrito for pudding. A delicious week but headed for a big gain tomorrow.
Not looking good for the next few weeks either as the nights out are becoming relentless! I don't get much of a social life during the year but December just seems to fill up.

Congratulations Mrs Ryan, it sounds like a well-deserved fantastic day after all your hard work!

Well done losers and STS :T and commiserations to everyone who's gained--I feel your pain.

We're trying Schwartz slow cooker curry today--only 3.5 syns for the whole packet and should be enough for 4 portions. I've put chick-peas in instead of potatoes to add more protein and because it's meant to be served with rice--double carbs in one meal just doesn't feel right.
I'll be interested to see what it turns out like because the reviews I've seen are quite mixed.

Well I stayed to group last night, and feeling determined that what I eat is the one thing I could have some control over in my life.


So new week, and determined to be on plan as much as possible. Even filling in a food diary.


Today's plan:
Breakfast - porridge and fruit
Lunch - noodles
Dinner - risotto


HA - milk and cheese
HB - oats
Syns - syrup (1), miso (0.5), extra cheese which I will weigh and syn when cooking dinner.

Have a Dr's appointment shortly (just a COPD review so nothing serious) so this is just a quick post with my plan for today.

B - Almond baked oats - 0.5 HEB + 1
L - LO gardeners pie - 3
D - stuffed chicken breast wrapped in bacon, chips & beans (3.5)

HEA - milk
HEB - 20g porridge (0.5); 0.5 still to have later
Syns - flaked almonds 1; 15g cheese 3; garlic & herb soft cheese 3.5

Think I've probably gone over syns for the week by a couple but hopefully will get away with it!
