Evening all, long time no speak! I have still been loitering but life has gotten in the way 🥴
Still hanging around the 1lb on/off yo-yoing so still trying to shift menopausal gain but my own health issues are not helping! Won’t bore you with all that’s happened/happening to hubby & myself, still taking it one day at a time. 👋🏻

Hi All, Can I join in please @beanielou ? Below is my meal plan for when I start next week, I will put starting weight on the day I first start, It will probably be a monday. I have prepared this meal plan with a lot of thought gone in for how it will work for me, I would be interested to hear what you think of it. I will be starting with untraditional smoothie, I feel if I start the day having got 4/5 Fruit veg out of the way it will be a winning start to anyday, I know blitzing fruit is going to add syns too - however the spinach is better for you when it is pulverised and the fruit will take the edge off the spinach, either way it is still a great start to the day, and I bet I get a buzz out of it and be full. I am going to partner this with swimming monday to Thursday, with friday and saturday off, potentially swim on Sunday afternoon (Long swim). 



Next is Brunch/Lunch/Dunch I have called it these things as I am not sure when I will be hungry after the smoothie and the swim, I may have brunch if I get hungry quick, or lunch if I don't and I would be ever so hopeful if I didn't need dinner too. I know that protein will keep me fuller for longer, I have decided to have a late tradtional english breakfast for this time.



I know I can take the rind off the bacon, fry the egg in spray oil and I may just do that, I need some different sausages too, I am unsure what sausages I can have from sainsburys that will be free or very low syn and filling, I know there is lynda mccartney sausages but after a while I get fed up with these, I have picked Naked bacon and sausages as they are more friendly to your body then traditional type (less additives) and taste good.

Next dinner:- At this time of year I am keen to have salads free, potato salads (Made free) and lean meat also free. 

Snacks:- Apple and HeA cheese free and 3X times per week I am allowing myself 25g chocolate 70% cocoa.

In total this is 25 syns my allowance - I already know what my allowance is as I have been my weight before and I have done SW before.

I know I should try and have less, however I need to start on the maximum before I cut down and see how I go, as all the times I try and lose weight previously I have felt too hungry - This plan may not work at all and all may flop by the first hurdle, But I know I must keep trying also I expect I will be tired after swimming 4 days per week where before I have done next to nothing, just housework on the odd day.

It will be interesting to see if it works this time. By the way I am not currently a member of SW, I have a friend joining soon and I may join her, however I haven't yet and I may not.
