20 somethings

Omg, lushous dinner... Pork stir fry.. made a sauce of dark soy sauce, lemon juice, crushed chillis and garlic.. Pure amazing!!

Can't wait to make it again!!

Getting my lunchbox ready for tomoro at my new job.. I've a small pasta salad with tuna and chicken.. A light bar for 3.5 syns and an options 2 syns... I've an orange and grabbing a banana in the morning.. Enough to keep someone going 8 hours?

Sounds like a nice amount of food I'd say! Maybe grab an extra piece of fruit just incase! X
 
Yeah.. I think i'm going to grab some extra fruit from the shop in the morning just to be sure.. I'm not going to take any chances with my new job.

Its going to be fabulous getting back into a routine properly and it will definitely help my weight loss. I'm moving nearer to the gym as well, always a bonus! Lol!! ;-)

New job, new home and with all this fab gym talk and SW talk new you!! X
 
Good luck for your new job tata.
Girls not been a very good weekend sw wise! :( even though i had a lovely pork and paprika one pot stew in the fridge ready to heat up for dinner I succumbed to a Chinese tonight, serves me right really that they've started putting MSG in my fave dish which means I've not got an awful head and palpitations, shouldn't have bothered!
Had wine last night despite trying not to drink till my holiday fell into a mini box if celebrations (thank god it was only a mini box) and ate some more sweets with my brother in the car earlier...hope I've not done too much damage..really wanted to get that last pound off to get back to pre Xmas weight, rubbish! At least not having the pork tonight I've got a few days of lunches and a dinner for one night. Back on it tomorrow.
 
Aww scarlet that sucks, but great positive spin put on it, with the extra lunch portion. I guess the MSG will keep you away from the chinese for a while. What is your favourite dish btw? I think you told me and I've forgotten. I remember looking something up and getting distracted by a chinese supermarket.

Tata, have you seen your current weight in stats? It keeps making me giggle. Not that i'm cruel, but that it says 5st 13lbs. heehee
 
Well it used to be beef and peppers in black bean sauce, then they always used MSG in it so went to chicken with ginger and spring onions. Had it a few times no problems but tonight it's made me feel rubbish! I'd rather have a curry cos I know I can have my biriyani within my syns but mike didn't fancy one. Damn men...
 
Haha yes it is! I must find that biriyani recipe you posted, was it here or in your diary? Will take a screen shot and make that soon :) yummy! Dancing on ice over, such a thirst on from the chinese so will drink a few more gallons of water than off to bed! Can't believe its Sunday again already, but wish next Sunday would hurry up! This time next week will be getting ready for bed in preparation for our first day on the slopes! Eeeeek! Can not wait! Xx

Don't beat yourself up about it Scarlett, we are only human!! Hope you feel abit better soon! X
Ah rubbish boy! I love biryani. Never been much of a fan until I made it myself. Now I love it. I do love curries in general though. Having curry on Tuesday. Burgers tomorrow. SW is a weird diet. hehe.
SW burgers are immense aren't they! I want them now and I have all the ingredients in, I always do mine in oven and of course stupid oven is dead. Is there any other way of doing them? I did lamb burgers in my slow cooker last week and added beef stock and a few other herbs and mint sauce and they were Devine! I suppose I could always make up the syn free BBQ sauce and add that to slow cooker with the burgers?! May have to do it tomorrow now!! X
 
What a good idea jess sounds lovely. I do mine in the frying pan on a low heat.
Scarlet don't let it bring you down just think about how bad it would have been before sw.
 
Can you tell before slimming world I didn't know how to boil an egg? First time I boiled an egg I had to google how you do it haha, I have completely learnt from scratch how to cook!! I will deffo do them in the pan, I also put a babybel in mine, cheesey melt burgers and sometimes top with lean bacon, fried onions, lettuce and syn free garlic dip, on a yum bun. Or if I've had my hex for the day and can't do the bun a giant mushroom is a nice change haha! X
 
Yummy I never think to do fried onions! Might have to make burgers this week too! All your dinners sound so nice, might start inviting myself round for tea ;) ,
ooh skinny I tried your paprika chicken recipe last night- so yummy! Thanks again for that!

Aww jess that is sweet! Sw is so good for learning how to cook, I've always loved cooking but think sw has made me more adventurous as you have to adapt recipes and try your own things to make it sw friendly, love it!
 
Im glad you liked it, very nice. I think burgers are in the next shopping list.
