Autumn Slimming World Support Thread 2019

Hi all.

Today's Menu
B Bran crunch (HEB) 0% yoghurt (P) backberries (S) honey (1)
L HM Butternut squash soup (S and F) squash, onion, stock, a few red lentils to thicken and stock with a touch of curry powder, Tangerine (S) apple(S)
D Slow cooked Beef stew - beef (P) carrots, onions , leeks and swede (all S) gravy from granules (1.5 for my portion) served with mash (F)

I've made a vat of the soup, some scotch eggs with Linda McCartney sausages and some bread so can leave the shopping till tomorrow.
Meal plan done for the week so all I need to do is stick to it now!

Well done on your loss sary:T You're certainly going mad with the Body Magic and it seems to be working.

If you made a 70g pizza base pollyanna then it would just be 1 syn over a HEB (60g =6 syns or a HEB ) or you could make it smaller. . If you made several in advance then you could freeze them for bunging in the oven on Fridays. I'm sure your girls would love making them with you.

I portioned up the braised red cabbage. We only have a large serving spoon each at a time so I made up 14 portions from the 1 cabbage, onions and apples. I used 4 small eating apples so the syns for cooked apple isn't worth worrying about.

Thanks for the new thread Beanie

I have been a little way off this week, fish and chips on Friday as I was so late home I couldn't be bothered to cook (then wash up!) as I had work the next day to prepare for. Yesterday dh cooked chicken fajitas (pretty sure he doesn't use my spay oil!)
Today is usually my cheat day where I use all my remaining syns left over and don't worry about counting. We are having a roast with the works and apple crumble (which is my favourite) so I think I'm going to draw a line and start a fresh next week, although I am at a funeral on Tuesday and a work course on Wednesday afternoon, so not a normal week again.
Tete I think I will join you as I find something to aim at helps motivate me. I shall go with 10lb over the next 8 weeks and update my sig

Oh just a note on whoever was talking about tacos, pollyanna24 I think? My kids also love those so when I make them I make a portion of pasta for myself and mix my bit of mince in with a large helping of salad and sprinkle of cheese (hexa), very tasty.

Thanking you. I am undecided as to what to do yet. If a taco has 3.5 sysn and I normally have 2, then 7syns isn't the end of the world. But I think we are having it with rice as well, so I mightn't need the tacos.

Here you go Polyanna
