Lose weight in '26 with Slimming World & SWIP's.

Thanks - DH has been fiddling with trying to get the battery sorted for over a week! I just wish he'd called breakdown and got it to the garage last week rather than leaving it until the last minute - but he's always like that!

Just like your DH mine is likely to say he wants to take a particular pair of trousers or whatever shortly before we're about to pack and they need washing. Really annoying but think you kind of get used to it!

Afternoon all,

Condolences @TakeItEazy thoughts are with you and your family. Look after yourself 🥰

Life is really getting in the way of posting at the moment. I’ve been doing all the dirty jobs for my dad - think bags of compost and dump runs - in the old car before I pick up the new one on Wednesday. I’ve made it clear it will be deliveries and uplifts going forward 🤞

Food was on plan over the weekend but probably over on weekend wine swips 😁

Breakfast was the usual fruit and yoghurt, lentil soup for lunch and dinner is shredded tandoori chicken with salad. Instead of flatbread I’m using a ciabatta roll at 6.5 swips as it needs using and oil for chicken is healthy fat choice.

Afternoon all 😁

Beanie, hope you are ok after your fall? and well done on your loss 👏

Denise, i hope you get MH sorted.

It is absolutely lashing it down here, has been all morning 😪if you didn't know and looked out the window you'd think it was bloody November!

Forgot to post my tea yesterday, gap was for cauli cheese 3 sv. and half fibre for yorkies

Pudding was 1/4 fibre and 3.5 sv for both and lunch today

Weighed in this morning with an astounding 1.2 kg loss (what I gained last week and a wee bit more) very pleased and my June plans are going well in terms of steps and food.

Well done to @beanielou on the loss despite a fall and @joedenise men arrrggh 🙄 I have one like that too

@TakeItEazy thinking of you and sending you strength to get through this dreadful time.

It’s freezing cold, windy and lashing down here today. Dreadful weather for June.

Tonight we are having mushrooms, eggs and bacon medallions and some HEb toast. Love a teatime brekky.

I had a lovely week last week and gained 11/2lb on Saturday !

Seem to have lost it this morning .See a specialist today and he is sure my problems are predominantly back and not hip ,going to have MRI spine and other tests and review ,Hip mri is already booked end of June .

I am more than aware that losing a couple of stone would help a lot so am trying hard

Have decided to stick with Slimming World but reduce the carbs and increase the protein to hopefully keep me fuller for longer ,I get so hungry that temptation is hard to resist .

Hopefully it will work ,I know I’m old (77 next week) but I can’t go on like this .

Glad

@Suffolksue I started SW due to struggling with osteoarthritis in the hip and chronic pain in the knees. Started February needing to lose 1 stone 13 lb, I have 3 lb to go.

I’ve found it fairly easy to stick to plan, overnight oats, fruit and 0% Greek yogurt most mornings, lunches vary, and I’ve used a lot of SW recipes for dinner, fruit for snacks and lots of water. It’s been fun trying new recipes. One treat day a week, not much change in food but some chocolate and a couple of g&t’s.

it’s really made a difference to my joint pain 😊

Morning all (just about!), weather was lovely first thing but we've just had a very heavy shower and the sun's trying to come out again. Forecast says more rain later and possibly thunder as well.

Been shopping this morning after going to our MH garage to make sure they can take the motorhome in once we get the breakdown out to it. DH has spoken to the breakdown people so now it's just a waiting game for the time being!

Today's plan:

B - baked oats - Fibre; P; S; F
L - fajitas - Fibre; P; S; 3
D - steak, chips, onions, mushrooms - P; S; 4 (wasn't planned but managed to get the deal in the Co-op this morning!)

Calcium - milk
Fibre - oats; wrap
Swips - sweet chilli sauce 3; chips 4? (about 100g of French fries)

Have a good day everyone.

PS. Breakdown arrived about 12.45 and managed to get the motorhome started so DH drove it to the garage and I followed in the car. Have asked them to get it done by the end of the week and to let us know if that's not possible so I can change our Eurotunnel ticket for Monday.

Afternoon all 😁

Well forecast was rain, rain and more rain , so i did no washing! We have had a few spots, so i have just hung washing out, it's windy so hopefully we dry.

Denise, glad they have collected MH and hope you get it back for Friday so you don't have to change your plans.

I am having real problems with my shoulder/arm 😢the injection worked for about 3 weeks, the pain the last week has been horrendous, really don't know what to do, think i need different tablets.

Oh our temp consultant has said last night on fb page the new one from Devon is coming this Saturday, but again she is only temp, until she decided if she is staying here or going Warickshire? i think it was to live 🙄but hopefully we will have her a good few months and i hope she is nice!

Food today.

Picky plate, free.

Tea

Steak, BNS chips, peas, mushrooms and grilled toms.
