    :TWell done curlgirl. That's a good loss! You too nicki. Good luck with your plans for this week.:T


    Somehow I didn't think you'd agree with me about Jose tweets.;)
    I'm glad you're liking your new tops but probably best to keep out of the bakery aisle when you're in Tesco. The bun is 16.5 syns for 100g:eek: and each bun is more than 100g.:(


    Good luck with WI later.:)


    Sounds like a good party abbafan. Now you're not going to group you can lose at a pace to suit you. I can see why you didn't want to tie up Saturday mornings.:)


    Over estimating is a great idea sirens. I do the same with HM gravy as although I know how much cornflour goes into it, it's difficult to estimate how much fat might be left in meat juices.


    I'm really looking forward to my roast today despite the sunshine. We missed out last week because we were away.


    Today's EE plan:
    B: NAS grapefruit, ham, fried egg, mushrooms, tomatoes, half HEB toast, HEA milk for drinks
    L: JP with cottage cheese and beetroot
    D: JO roast pork on veg trivet (onion, celery and carrot), SW roast potatoes and parsnips, cauli, broccoli, swede & carrot mash, braised red cabbage
    Syns: HM gravy 4, wine syns:D


    I'm trying to be careful with wine syns this weekend as I'm out for lunch on Wednesday. I'd be surprised if I have enough syns left for all the food and wine but I'll do my best.:)
  • Morning all.

    WI yesterday saw a +1 lb so I'm guessing it's payback for last weekend which was slightly off plan though I did think I'd counteracted that with all the swimming / walking I did but hey ho.

    I've made a decision as well worth regards class. I'm giving it 12 weeks where I am going to be super good and if I haven't lost anything substantial by then I'm knocking class on the head. As I said previously, for the 1st time ever I'm getting stressed by the figures on the scales and It just isn't worth it.

    Not sure what's on the menu today but it will be something light as it's quite warm here.

    Have a good day everyone

    Nice to see tweets if fruity today!

    Bought a pineapple from Lidl yesterday 69p.
    I know it's not on the free food list but surely better than some other sweet treats?

    I agree with others who have posted about setting small goals instead of getting daunted about the whole amount we would like to lose.

    That's why this thread is great, thanks to everyone who posts and encourages.
    Thanks as well for the chart as once you see things written down it does motivate. :T

    Keep plodding along like me and just copy bubbs food. :D
