'Lose pounds more in 24 with Slimming World'

maddiemay

Good morning, not raining yet, but is promised!  OH and I been very busy trying to get the house in order, main problem for me is fatigue attributed to both my main health conditions so housework has been spasmodic for quite a while, I admit I prioritise  cooking, being outdoors keeping kitchen and bathrooms hygienic, washing, not so good at keeping up with dusting, cleaning out cupboards etc.  I may try and find a cleaner in a while, but there is so much stuff we no longer need - don't entertain much etc. pots/pans/crockery and stuff is gradually moving out.

Anyway back to SW have nearly finished freezer audit so currently meal planning 2/3 days ahead - agree with you all that it really does help.

@bubbs hoping that you are O.K. and safe. @NornIronRose well done on the 2lb loss. @Longwalker I hope everything goes well this morning.

Hi everyone,

I’m still here. Food on plan (remarkably). DH’s last day in his current job today – the whole ‘process’ has been handled really badly.

Sorry to hear you might be evacuated again @bubbs – hoping you’re somewhere safe and dry xx

Well done to all the losers and STS-ers. I gained 0.5lb on Saturday but have been totally on it this week.

Morning all

Thanks everyone, just came home as it started about 50mins ago and want to make sure we have all we want, made a cuppa sat down, environment agency rang......flood alert, but not a warning ..........yet! But we will deff be gone if this keeps up!!

Denise, i do have a lot of clothes shamefully, i just take dirty washing home and refill the case, i must have over 20 pairs of leggins 🤣but there is towels, bedding, it was mainly pants, socks, dh's work kit and tops i got washed.

Have a good day all.

Coxy so sorry about DH , hope he finds something soon x

@Coxy11  - Your DH didn't get much notice of his redundancy which is really bad.  Mind you that's probably better in some ways than the full 3 months I had to do - the end couldn't come soon enough!  Hope he finds another job fairly quickly.

You did well to only gain 0.5lb last week - assume that still means your in target.

@maddiemay. I have a cleaner for 3 hours a week & she helps with veg preparation. 

She is a total gem & even loves my cats. 🐱 🐱

Good to hear from you @Coxy11 and well done on staying on plan at this stressful time. I know from when I worked in that field that we were careful to say that a role was being made redundant but it's so hard not to take it personally. 🤞🏼 your DH finds something suitable very soon. 

At least the days are creeping up towards your return home @bubbs. It must be just over a week left. 🤔

Hope your appointment goes well tomorrow @Longwalker. I'm sure you'll have a super time in Edinburgh. It's lovely to have something to look forward to. I'm having a day out in London next week with my BFF. We're going to see Helen George in The King and I and whatever else we decide to do with our time. 

I always feel a sense of achievement when I've done my freezer inventory @maddiemay . I always write the contents longhand on a piece of paper and cross things out as they're used up. Once the list starts to look a mess, I redo it so it gets a regular refresh.

Today's plan-
B- HEB (half) toast, eggs, bacon (P), tomatoes (S), HEA milk for drinks
L- HEB (half) toast, sardines (P), pickles (S), lentil and veg soup (P,S)
D- chicken casserole (P,F,S), greens and cauliflower (S)
Syns- cornflour 1

Enjoy Edinburgh @Longwalker.

Hey up!!

We left when i picked dh up from work, not got kicked off but don't want another middle of the night evacuation! I don't understand it there is more lake than last time 🤔 If they open the flood gates pity the ones that have not left!

Not ideal the day before WI but we had a chinese, that in itself is ok 12.5, i had 1/3 tub egg fried rice 2 syns, handful of chips, syns unknown, and 9 prawn crackers , but that's a bonus as i could eat the whole pack 🤣🤣already had a pk crisps today 7.5 syns so not holding my breath even for a maintain tomorrow 🤣

joedenise

Good idea to just go to the hotel to save a middle of the night evacuation again.

I wouldn't worry about the extra syns today as you probably haven't had that many during the week so you probably haven't gone over for the week.  Good luck for WI tomorrow.

Afternoon all

VERY disappointed 😞 3.5 on!!
Didn't warrant a big gain like that! I wS expecting about 1lb 😪
