And here we go!!! Excited or what?!*

And the result was..........a STS!! Actually quite pleased with that, it meant that I managed to get 4lbs off since Monday. To help keep me on the straight and narrow I have promised that I will post a picture of my SW meals every night on facebook. My C mentions my pics every week which is nice.

So how is everyone else doing? Enjoying the sunshine? I still need to sort out my freezer so I can stick the bowl of my ice cream maker in there and start making some! (SW friendly of course!)

xx
 
Well done,that sound a good WI from what you expected.:)
Might have to find you on facebook if that's ok, re the meal pics! I don't have many friends on there,:sigh: it's to keep an eye on the kids (grown up ones)really:p
That's a good idea re ice cream maker, I have one. Do you have recipes for SW ice cream then?
Have a good weekend, can't wait to see my daughters degree dance show,tomorrow, she's in 6 dances (tissues at the ready!):eek:
 
Holidaygirl, there's a link at the bottom of my signiture for facebook, I'll look out for your friend request hun. There's a good thread for ice cream ideas in the recipe section, gets added to all the time which is fab. Must make room in my freezer (my OH keeps 'ner ner'ing me saying ha told you you'd never use it, damn gadgets lolol).

I hope all goes well for your daughter, 6 dances wow! I remember the days of watching mine on stage (nothing like that tho) but even the end of year assemblies and christmas shows had me blubbing xx

Oddsock, it was even better the next day, had 'matured' a bit with the flavours! I used Quorn mince, onion, tomato, sweet potato, cumin, cardomom, chilli, coriander, passata, kidney beans, chick peas, butter beans, haricot beans, bean salad in spicy sauce, one beef and one chicken stock pot, cannelini beans, basmati rice, salad. Could also add some chorizo sausage too yum. Was really nice. I'll try and put a link for the pic on fb.....xx
 
yup that worked, there you go :) xx
 
That's what OH says about my kitchen gadgets!
Going to check out the recipes on here for the ice cream, thanks.
Have sent a friend request on FB.
Tears were flowing at the show, just so proud of her as it wasn't all plain sailing getting her thru the 3 years at uni!
She is home for Easter then goes back for a few weeks:)
Have a good week.
 
you too hun xx

Had an oatsosimple with fresh berries for breakfast, havn't had one for ages so really enjoyed it. Only trouble is I now can't have my crispbreads for lunch :-/

Got some smoked salmon to use, may make some scrambled eggs yum yum. Stir fried beef tonight, may make some egg fried rice too. hmmmm thats sounds lush actually lol xx

Hope everyone is doing well xx
 
OH isn't well, daughter doesn't want any dinner.....what can I make for myself that's tasty and quick? Or shall I have the remains of my homemade chinese from last night? Yes, that might be a nice idea :)
 
OH still not well bless him, but on a plus it's actually helping me (in a roundabout way) because I won't eat in front of him while he can't eat. Didn't have a lot yesterday either. After the bbq I went to Friday and party on Saturday (didn't eat anything un-SW friendly but had lots of alcohol :-/) I'm sure i put on, so hopefully that will counteract any gain I might have had. Really need to think about what to do for dinner, I havn't stuck to our planned menu obviously, but it will have to be something relatively light, if the doc says he's ok to eat anything. I've got a bit obsessed with food shopping, my larder is full, my cupboards are full and my freezer has a breezeblock on the top keeping the lid down. Pretty sure I'm going to be a bit skint next week so that's good cos it means I will only need to get fresh stuff.

So where is everyone, and how are you all doing? xx
 
Really don't think I've lost yet again. Sorry to be negative when others have said how positive I am, I am positive really but as I've said before, we havn't eaten properly this week due to the 2 parties and OH being ill. Yesterday all I had was some rotisserie chicken from Asda (skin removed) some fruit and some pineapple in the evening, apart from 2 cups of tea and a coffee. Definately not enough. Poor OH has had really bad stomach and has eaten hardly anything and lost half a stone in 3 days.....really doesn't look good with it though poor darling. So I'm off to class tonight for my last week of 12 week countdown (wow that went quickly!) with a sad 10.5lbs loss. Right, come on Suze, tomorrow starts another SW week.....

Cummon folks, I need you guys to keep me on the straight and narrow and give me your positive vibes!!!!! xx
 
Hey, where are those positive vibes:D
Hope your WI is better than you predict;)
Not nice when OH ill anyway, so you haven't had a good week really.:sigh:
Chin up and start afresh, whatever happens.:)
Hope OH feels better soon:eek:
 
Thanks holidaygirl missed you hun :) How are you doing? xx

Well ended my 12 weeks countdown on a sad 8.5lbs loss, how pathetic is that?! Right, next week I'm signing up for the 6 week countdown and woe betide me not getting good losses eh. Cupboards are groaning with food, all SW friendly so no excuses.....let's get on with it!!! (Still can't get round the 'if you don't eat enough you put on weight' type thing, especially seeing as OH has lost loads where he has been ill) xx
 
Positve vibes flying your way:)
You have lost weight over the weeks, so that's worth celebrating, better off than on!
Sounds like you are organised for the coming week and focused, so looking good:)
We can do this:stay positve and think of a mini goal or an event that you are aiming for,ie your 6 week plan;), mine is my 50th birthday a month today,:eek:
Have a good weekend and hope oh on the mend:)
 
:wavey: hi suzie don't be so quick to dismiss ur loss it was a great achievement :happy096: just think if u hadn't been following plan the last 12 weeks u would probably have been a few lbs heavier at this time :eatdrink023:good luck with ur 6 week countdown we're rooting for you have a great weekend xx
 
Holidaygirl and Valerie you are both lovely! I actually thought of you guys when we were out for lunch today.....I nearly ordered a steak or mixed grill (with jacket instead of chips!) but remembered my promise about posting pics on facebook of every meal I have so I stuck to a jacket with chilli and hexa cheese with extra salad. TBH I wasn't impressed at all, but maybe that's the chef in me lolol. Not sure what to have for dinner tonight, will prob be something light as feeling quite full. Need to feed OH up though, thank goodness he's feeling better now. Daughter with tonsillitis now :-( xx
 
Made the herbed minced beef and cous cous from the new Extra Easy meals in Minutes book. Lovely. Actually made enough to feed 4 people for 2 days.....lunch tomorrow is sorted then :)

After talking to certain people on here, and the support of friends on facebook I am feeling very positive. Hope I keep it up lolol xx

Is everyone else having a good week? Lots of people looking but not posting! xx
 
Glad to hear you are feeling positive again:)
Good choice when you were out:D
Nice to know we have an influence on you,hehe!;)
Have a good weekend, hope daughter feeling a bit better, too.
 
Thanks love, she's insisting on working tonight, although she's been 'too poorly' to do anything at home lol. xx

All I've had today so far is leftovers from my beef and cous cous last night. It's even nicer than last night because all the flavours have merged even more :). Think we're having lamb steaks with SW chips tonight but not sure yet, I've still got loads to do upstairs. had a brandy last night at bedtime, still only used 6.5 syns though allowing for the flavoured cous cous and I put 2 syns for the chilli I had at lunchtime just in case.

Hope you peeps are having a fab weekend xx
 
Had the lamb steaks, nice and lean. Put crushed garlic and rosemary sprigs on it as it cooked yummy, served with the chips, mushrooms and a large salad. Really enjoyed it. So determined this week it's unreal lol. xx
