Losing in Lockdown - Slimming World Support Thread

Coxy11

Hi all,
Well done to you both. I too think wearing non-office attire is not helping me. Been in T-shirt and shorts/jeggings everyday since 17 March  Latest plan for returning to office is Sept but only for some of us.
No running today. Food has been:
B - weetabix and skimmed milk (HEA/HEB)
L - grilled bacon, poached egg, baked beans, tomato/mushrooms (S)
D - tuna pasta bake, sugar snap peas 
Snacks - Apple, satsuma, banana
HEA2 will be some cheese on the pasta bake. Will use Parmesan 
Synbank looking good this week. I usually splurge at the beginning of the week but I’ve been really careful this week. Have 74 left until WI on Sunday morning whoop whoop!
Have a good evening all

We only managed a draw tonight. ❤️⚽   I had both chocolate and wine syns. 😉 But this current thread is about SW in lockdown and I've missed my 3 week sunshine holiday when I'd have had 21 nights off plan. I can live with that. 😁

Morning all,
My team managed a draw last night too  Tuna pasta bake was a bit disappointing as used plain quark instead of super light Philadelphia. It was a bit runny but edible!

Bubbs - what is in mayflower curry please?
3k run this morning. Food will be:
B - Weetabix and skimmed milk (HEA/HEB)
L - lo tuna pasta bake (joy!) with salad (s)
D - baked fish, jacket potato (1), veg (need to shop for veg later)
Snacks - satsuma, flat peach, apple

Syns  - rum n coke (3)
Have a good day all.

Shame about the runny pasta bake coxy. I've never used quark so yet to be converted.

I'm sure bubbs will explain properly  later but I think the Mayflower curry s a powdered sauce mix a bit like chip shop curry. I've seen it for sale in Farmfoods. 

Having bought instant potato in Sainsbury's this week I've now got enough to make a batch of the KFC coating. I'm going to fill a screw top jar so that I can just take out what I need each week.  I find I need less than the recipe says and definitely only one egg to coat 4 chicken  thighs. 

Todays EE plan-
B- NAS grapefruit (F), scrambled eggs (P), HEB toast, HEA milk
L- sardines (P) and beetroot (S)
D- Fake KFC (P), SW chips (F), carrots, asparagus, tomatoes, mushrooms (S)
Syns- HP sauce 1, weekend wine

Coxy - you'll be pleased to know that you can have half syn on your rum - it's 2.5 not 3 syns for 25ml measure!  I usually have 2 glasses as a use a can of diet ginger beer with mine and only use half a can in each - prefer to drink it with the rum in rather than on it's own though!

maman - I find I only need one egg when I do the KFC as well.  I use quark quite a bit but as a cream substitute instead of yoghurt as I prefer the taste as it's not so sharp.  I've never used it as a sauce though as didn't think it would work, which it seems it doesn't!

No KFC for us this week while we're away - I couldn't fit the chicken into the little ice box in the caravan, along with the bacon, sausages etc!  I got enough stuff in for about 3 meals plus breakfasts so not too bad for a pretty small space.  That's why we're having quite a few tins and jars this week.

KFC was yummy as ever. 😋
I decided I was low on Bolognese so put a batch in the SC. Good to make the most of the peppers on Aldi Super 6. 😁

Mine was nice too
Do you fry your mince off first when you do in SC?

My sister has been messaging me, my niece has tested positive for covid she works in a care home, was clear last week so they are all having test tomorrow and isolating now
