Weigh in day for me - reporting a 1lb gain :mad: :rotfl: Not going to feel too despondent, since with all I've eaten over the last week, I'm just glad it wasn't more!!

Gonna try extra hard this week - might try and keep it as syn free as possible as well!!

So far today:

b: Bacon Sandwich (Free), 2 slices WM bread (HEB), spread with Flora extra light (1 Syn)
l: Muller yoghurt (free), 1 Banana (free)
d: who knows?!

Well done spat - that's fab news!!:j :T And a bit of a blow out at your birthday is not only allowed - it's pretty much compulsory!!

We've got a big valentines night planned (although on the 13th since OH is working the 14th!) - So I think I'll use that as my next target to get a few more of these lbs shifted!! Every little goal helps - in my case at least!!

Hi there,

Thank you for the pancake recipe Marion - that's great. And thanks for coming back to me so quickly. I might do some experimenting tonight....... :-)

Thank you to all for their friendly welcomes - i feel like part of the group already!

Well,l today (extra easy) i have had nestle clusters and SS milk for breakfast (HEA and HEB), mullerlight then some smoked salmon for a snack (free) (a bit odd i know, but they need using in the fridge) and have pasta bolognaise for lunch (free). Might have a bit of LF cheese on top as syns. Tea will be leftover pork shoulder with something (maybe mash, sweetcorn and gravy).

I've had a few giant chocolate buttons as well - does anyone know what the syns are for them?

Also, just a tip in case anyone hasn't tried it - the 'cathedral city lighter' cheddar is very nice and doesn't taste like low fat cheese - much better than all the other LF cheeses i have tried. Its often on offer in one of the supermarkets too.

Have a good day everyone!

PS well done Spat - that's great!

Crapwithmoney - you'll be Ok, a pound isn't much and will soon come off. Can you do any extra exercise this week? I've found walking the dog really helps!

hi all!

Spud - is it quorn mince? If so, just google a normal moussaka recipe and substitute the quorn. You'll need to HE/syn the sauce a bit.

My food for today:

b: muller and 2 bananas
l: SW wedges and leftover chicken curry
d:slab of beef with red peppers, tomatoes and pasta

Yes hun, quorn mince. It's the sauce bit I'm stuck on. I was thinking about a couple of eggs, some vlf nat youghurt (or should it be fromage frais - I have both) and some HE cheese

Ossireo

I think I am keeping Muller in business, wish I could take a picture of my fridge, I have 30 yoghurts in there

Its going to be an experimental week for me, bought some 0% Greek Yoghurt, Low Fat Fromage Frais, Quark, various herbs/spices (and a wee bit of blue cheese that I may try in the quark to make a dressing for a reduced steak I picked up along with a jacket spud Mmmm)

Don't think my WI will go well on Wednesday as its only really today I have had stuff in .. along with fact I did not say no to my OHs housemate when he waved a chocolate croissant under my nose this morning However have had rather a bit more body magic then normal helping my mum move out of her house

Good Luck to everyone on their WIs this week (if they are not cancelled due to snow)

Help!!!

I'm too scared to get on the scales and check what damage I have done over my last two weeks of over indulgence with DH :mad:

I will do it in the morning, I promise. I can't regret it too much as I have had such a lovely time with DH and we both love our food so we have had some fantastic meals out.

Today has been a bit of a picky day but I don't think that bad. Just had a quorny/lentil chilli thing and have done enough for the rest of the week so guess I'll be seeing lots more of it.
