Morning all

Hope everyone is well - commiserations if you're not (sorry, I've not had a chance to read posts this week).

-1 lb for me this week. That's better than I hoped as I know I've not been good this week, so I'll take it. It still means I'm heavier than at the start of the challenge though, so I'm going to try to be extra good this week.


Plan for today

B- Kipper (4) and HEXB wholemeal bread
L- chicken salad
D - homemade beef burgers, sweet potato, mushrooms

Snacks: HEXA cheese, red pepper, pears, peaches
Syns: 4 for kipper, possibly 3 for fruit pastille lolly if the temperature ramps up again.

Well done on the losses tete and poohsticks.:T


Good idea to do some batch cooking sunflower. I always have at least one HM ready meal from the freezer in my meal plan each week. I like the flexibility. If plans change and I eat out I can skip it or have it on a night when I'm pushed for time. I'm not very adventurous though just variations on a theme like Bolognese, chilli and savoury mince. Yesterday we had gammon slices that I'd cooked myself and frozen in portions. Would anyone recommend other recipes that freeze well/reheat easily?:)


I'm going to have a JP for lunch today for a change. I really can't say that SP lunches have made a huge difference and as we rarely eat until 8 pm on a Saturday it'll keep me going.


Today's EE plan:
B: NAS grapefruit, HEB Weetabix with HEA milk and red berries
L: JP with cottage cheese, spring onion and beetroot
Aldi Lamb Rogan Josh, HM pilau, SW chips, mushrooms
Syns: 1.5 for curry, weekend wine;).

Hi all :A
Hope you’ve recovered from the shock of the fall Beanie, hate that feeling!

Think we should all be skinny the amount of perspiring we are doing . Big thunder storm with rain hit last night and a bit grey first thing but hot again now :cool:. Oh well gets the washing dry!

WI with -.4lb can’t even lose a full half better than a gain though.

Have a good weekend all, my plan is not to move too much! :rotfl:

Good morning everyone,

Creeps back in with head down in shame. I've not been in touch with you guys for a while, but after a month away on holiday I have 7lbs to lose to get back into the lower target range. I hope you'll welcome me back into the fold?

Lovely to read from "familiar" SW regulars and need to get a grip. Hopefully with a little help I will.

Welcome back Arkers. If you only have 7lb to lose to get back to bottom end of target then you!!!8217;re only just out of top end and only need to lose a lb or 2 to get back into range which is amazing after a month!!!8217;s holiday.

Maman did you know that you can batch cook and freeze jacket potatoes to reheat later? Keep meaning to do some but haven!!!8217;t got round to it yet!

Today should be on plan!

B - fry up
L - roast pork and salad
D - beef stirfry and noodles

Back home tomorrow so need to sort out a meal plan and get some shopping done.

Have bought a gammon joint for tomorrow night!!!8217;s dinner and we can have that cold on Monday but haven!!!8217;t thought beyond that.

I live alone so I only really cook meals that can be frozen. Usually: bolognese, chilli, all curries, all soups, and stews, and casseroles, diet cola chicken, campfire stew, basically anything in a sauce, and individual portions of cottage pie. Also things like individual portions of bubble and squeak, prepped and ready just to fry.

I froze a crustless quiche last week but it was a bit damp when I had it in my packed lunch - it may be better if you can reheat it before eating though.

Hi Arkers! 7lb is not bad at all for a month long holiday!

Gettingtherequickly

Having a break while Christmas cakes are in the oven! Got to start packing for holibob, family want to order more stuff from Sports Direct, so want to know how much space is left! At the way things are going, it will be 2 cases for them & hand luggage for me:rotfl:

Trying to decide what to have for dinner, got a chicken breast. & some mince, made fajitas last night, which were yum, think may make burger & chips & use the rest of the fajita mix tomorrow, will be out at out time for cooking, so they will be quick when I get back. Only got 2 WI before I go on holiday, so would dearly love to get as close as possible to 4st loss before I go, 5lb to do, not hopeful, but if I achieve my aim of 1lb a week, it would be 3 the day I go, so all food will have to be carefully considered.

Weather so much better today, was lovely to get a reasonable nights sleep last night.

Hi All,

Just a quick post to say sorry for not being here for a while and I've missed out on the challenge, but I've just not had the time to keep up with the thread.

Started a new job last Monday, so been a bit hectic and my brain is frazzled!

Speak soon. x
