Slimming for Santa - Slimming World support thread 2018

Have a great time gts. Next week I'd bite your hand off for half a pound as it would get me back into range.:)


Happy Birthday bubbs. Works out well to have picky tea or are you and MrB off out?


Sorry to hear you're under the weather again tie. Hope the GP can do something for you soon.:)

Listing was I had today. So breakfast was one weetabix with hot water and a pear lunch was a mug shot think it 1-5 syns and an apple the for tea I had a jacket potato cheese my a choice and salad it was yummy 1 syns for mayo. My dd and dh had chippy but I did not I have to have a good loss this week

Not sure what you'd normally eat Bozwood but I thought you didn't have much yesterday at all and very few syns. Please don't think you have to deprive yourself to lose weight, it doesn't work that way. The syns are built into the plan. Denise has given you some breakfast ideas. If you find there isn't much time in the mornings to cook, do some hard boiled eggs or cook sausages the night before and eat those with your fruit and have some yogurt with it. While I don't plan my lunches in advance, I do know I have a range of food in that I can eat. So jacket potatoes, eggs for omelettes, deliberately cook enough for leftovers, batch cook soup. If you're out get a Subway salad bowl or find a caf! that does JPs. There are heaps of things you can have but the secret is planning. Do ask if we can help in any way.:)


I rarely have Speed with my breakfast either pixielottie unless I'm having overnight oats. I try to have more like 50% at lunch and dinner to make up for it. When I was getting to target I sometimes ate a couple of satsumas mid morning too as they were easy to carry in my bag.


My DGD did the same thing for DD1's birthday last year denise. Her mum was so thrilled and very tearful. Have a good lunch and enjoy it. As you joined me in having an alcohol free Friday :eek:then we have plenty of syns in reserve.:D


I portioned up the Bolognese for the freezer but not enough to keep any for lunch. I might make bhajis later, depends if I have time.


Today's EE plan:
B: NAS grapefruit, HEB porage with HEA milk, half banana
L: fried egg, tomatoes, mushrooms, asparagus, ham
Aldi Lamb Rogan Josh, HM pilau, SW chips
Syns: 1.5 for curry and weekend wine!:j

That sounds like you made the wisest choices you could denise.:)


I spent a useful hour or so this afternoon going through my wardrobes. I have clothes ranging from size 10 to 14. The good news is that I can get into all of them. The not so good is that some of the smaller ones are a bit uncomfortable. So even more motivation to try to get down lower in my target range.:)


Had my lunch late so made it bigger than expected as I was hungry. Large (3 egg) veggie (tomato, mushroom, spring onion, asparagus and pepper) omelette with ham and pickles on the side.:D

Evening All
Work today so although I'm not too keen on sat work, it's probably a blessing in disguise as I'm not home to pick.
B porridge(hexb), bit of milk (2.5) Rest water, banana crushed seeds (1/2) and tsp honey (1)
L lo sw fried rice and chicken, apple
D boiled rice, Cuban beef with peppers and mushrooms and cheese (hexa)

Might have a kitkat later with my tea (5)
Syns total 9

Tomorrow I'm trying oven fried chicken from sw booklet with wedges, but will use my saved wedges on apple crumble! Got to make toffee apples for fireworks night for the kids but just making the 2 so I am not tempted. Also might make pumpkin soup for the week with my lo pumpkin 🎃

Happy birthday bubbs hope you had a lovely day _party_

Enjoy your date gtst

Thanks Maman. No way was I eating a cheese & tomato sandwich with white bread - white bread makes me feel bloated after all these years of SW, French baguette excepted:D. Also wanted to save my syns for alcohol tonight. Have decided on wine so enjoying a glass now:D. Your lunch sounded lovely. Still don't feel like eating!

Sorry, forgot to say Happy Birthday earlier Bubbs. Hope you've had a good day.

That a pita Beanie. Seems a bit unfair to me too.
