    Doing my best to lose weight and save money

    After the fireworks party at my house I had a really good time and stuck to the plan:j

    I had 175ml of red wine and filled up on quorn chilli with a jacket potato. I did have a little bit of popcorn (about 3 pieces) but I dont think that will do any harm:o A few of the guests complemented the chilli and one 17 year old ate it and said he didnt realise it had no meat in it:D

    I think that this is going to be the main motivation to keep me going, the fact that I can still enjoy a social life without worrying that I cant join in.

    My Menu for today is

    Breakfast
    Half a honeydew melon with a Cereal Optifit yogurt ( I much prefer these to mullers)

    Lunch
    Jacket Pot and Quorn Chilli (leftovers);)

    Dinner
    Chicken (HEB) brussle sprouts, carrots, potatoes, Gravy 1syn

    Snacks
    2 x Ryvita originals (HEB) with sliced banana
    Skimmed milk for tea
    But these things take time, I know that I'm, the most inept that ever stepped.

    OK, I'm in.

    I have done SW before and got to target :A but, the consultant changed and I sort of lost heart and messed around :o so, it's months since I've been and of course, the weight has crept back up. :mad:

    I will PM Louise with my pounds to lose and will update my sig.

    Breakfast ......argh got to go problem at work....back soon

    Well, I'm back from repairing machines at work...I did get back earlier and then had another phone call. :rolleyes:

    So far....I've eaten several chocolate hob nobs and several chocolate digestives all whilst at work.

    I did manage to force myself to eat an apple.
    Tea will be roast lamb, potatoes and veggies, due to error in planning, the lamb is rather well done and shrunken, so mine will be a HEB :D


    Top tip for the day.....frozen rhubarb is quite cheap in FarmFoods. It cooks down well without adding any liquid in a pan....sweetner can be added if required.
    Warm a muller light, vanilla is ideal, and pour over the hot rhubarb. Tastes almost like rhubarb and custard :drool:
    Stewed rhubard is low in Syns, 0.5 per 198g (approx 8oz in old money :D )

    Evening all - have never done so much cooking as this last week but I am enjoying it - OH is doing with me and he is enjoying it too - mainly because me cooking is a novelty I think!

    Chicken,mushrooms, onions, tin of toms and herbs all mixed together with vig tonight for me. Have run out of meat though after today so will have to do a meal plan for some green days until weds.

    Weigh in on Weds for me - well done so far everyone x x
