Hi everyone,

I'm new to this thread, and wondered if I could join? I have been going to a SW group since november. Have lost 6 pounds so far (had some gains over xmas!) and am hoping for my half stone at my next weigh in on saturday morning.

I might not be able to post everyday but wil certainly try to keep up.

Can I be cheeky Marion, and ask for your SW pancake recipe? It sounds lovely!

Breakfast - SW style pancakes with blueberries (free) plus a tablespoon blueberry syrup (2 syns)

I'm happy to share recipes etc and will try to provide some support and inspiration along with everyone else.

Thanks,

Ali

Hi Falady and welcome,
you are so lucky having a group to go to on a saturday i hate midweek groups but my old consultant told us SW dont do a group on a friday or saturday (they must just like the weekends off up here :rotfl: ) saturday group would be brilliant for me as it is always a saturday i fall off the wagon:A and i always have weigh in day as treat day so it would be ideal:T .
well done on your loss so far.

Hey guys, can I join this thread please?

I did S/W seven years ago and went from 12st 7lb to 10st 4lb and felt FANTASTIC. Unfortunately complacency set in and I've gone back up to 12st 5lb :eek: and I need to do something about it.

Could I ask - does anyone have a 2008 food directory I could buy from them? If anyone could pm me then I will let you have my address and arrange to pay for it. Thank you in anticipation

I might well try the syn free pancakes in the next couple of days......probably Tuesday will be the easiest for me......they sound fab.

mickey_mouse

will have to try the pancakes-they sound yummy

bit of an unexpected blip on Sat as I ended up staying with a friend and she wanted a Chinese takeaway (well I did too:rotfl: ). We didn't over do it though and for lunch just had salad . Too snowy for me to go to Taebo tonight as well so will make up for that on my wii fit .

Yesterday I was good and today I am snowed in but will be good
so far

- banana and a cuppa for brekkie
- lunch will be an omelette
- dinner will be something with the chicken i had over from yesterday

warm hugs to all

Good morning everyone! We are snowed in - how exciting is that:beer:. I feel all snug and happy, both of my girls are home as the buses have been cancelled and there is no way their cars would get through our little side roads. I am busy planning filling and hearty meals to serve today to keep us all warm in the cold. Won't be able to go to club today so guess I will call this week a STS!

The neighbourhood kids are all out on the front green having snowball fights and making snowmen. I would love to go out and play with them but guess I am getting a little too old for that sort of thing:rotfl::o

We took Charlie out for his toilet walk this morning and it took four of us about 15 minutes to chip all the snow off his fur. I don't know if its because he is such a curly little thing but each curl had its own little frozen snowball, he looked like the Michelen Man when he came in. At the end I just grabbed a hair drier and defrosted him!:rotfl::T:cool:

Menu for today:

Breakfast - oats so simple and frozen blueberries (heb,hea,free)

Lunch - salmon fillets with leftover rice from last night (free)

Dinner - Cottage pie with carrots, caulifour and brussels, hot rhubarb rice pudding for dessert (all free except 1 syn for the cooked rhubarb)

Thats my lot for now, wrap up warm everyone and if your are capable of it - get out in the snow and play for a while!!

Love
Marion

I was planning on having scrambled egg on toast, but i came on here and saw Marions post about pancakes. Well I just tried them and they are FABULOUS!!! I had them like a stack with banana in between. They taste very panacakey lol. I expected them to be like sweet omlettes, but they werent. Thanks Marion I now have a new exciting brekkie.

BTW they would be perfect with some sort of syrup, but I didnt have any.

Youre never too old marion just be carefull you dont break anything :rotfl: . your charlie sounds just like a dog i used to have he was a cross between a poodle and a yorkie so you can imagine his fur in the snow, and yes i used to defrost him with the hairdryer too:rotfl:

Morning everyone. Snowed in here - and I was planning on getting myself back to work and catching up on everything. Really hoping to get to class tomorrow as I am curious as to whether my lack of exercise (or in fact movement:rolleyes: ) has affected my weight - cos I have been a very good girl this week food wise! We'll see.

Food wise my day is looking like this:
Breakfast - 2 Oatibix (a HEB & 3 syns) with milk (HEA) and sweetener
Lunch - Jacket potato with a vegetable topping thing from the slow cooker (carrots, swede, celery, onion, tomato & stock)
Dinner...hmm don't know.... whatever the rest of the family has, I'll adapt for me.

I am also going to spend some time reading through extra easy AGAIN

Have a good day everyone
