DOING SW FROM HOME???

I just make a big SW friendly paella with chicken thighs, peppers, peas, green beans and loads of seafood, some syns in it as I put in a little chorizo for flavour and colour and some white wine. I posted some photos of my last one in my diary somewhere it was good! some meatballs in this hairy bikers recipe I found and amended to make SW and adding a chopped tomato and olive box thing. And did some little potato cubes with smoked paprika and put the meatballs ontop. A big salad too, so so good and really low syns xx

That sounds yummy I love spanaish meals so I'm going to try that I'm going to try and find that hairy bikers recipe I love the things they make, there are a couple of recipes I want SW friendly in the near future
 
Don't get me started on broody, I was born middle-aged mentally and cannot wait to have my first child! For now, I just look after my older friends' children :p
 
Just back from sainsburys where I found some Wheat free rolls on special offer in the bargain section Yay... I was hoping to cut them up a little and use them as hex's once in a while, got home and noticed they are white seeded, but noticed a couple of wheat free rolls posted here as hex's are actually white... so now I'm confused, anyone got a book or something so they can check for me please? They're Sainsbury's Free From soft white seeded rolls..

Hope everyone has had a good day, mine was wonderful thanks to my best friend but I'm just a little sad now that I'm not going to be seeing him for a few months :(
 
Good morning all,

Went to bed last night feeling really icky and cold :cry: Still not feeling great today but have dragged myself into work. My children are away this weekend and I had planned for some serious exercise but right now all I want to do is go back to bed with my electric blanket. I am hoping to do my 30 day shred after work and then go to bed for a bit in the hope I feel better later.

Hope you are all having a good morning so far x
 
Ugh I'm annoyed I've done the shred 3 times this week and walked about 10 miles and I've STS. I did try a mix of CC and SW this week obviously it wasnt a good idea and hasn't worked. Grrr! My own fault from messing with the plan, I don't really understand though if I've consumed the cals I said i did even having a major slip up yesterday STILL should have meant a loss. Oh well back to proper plan, hopefully when I start level 2 of shred it'll shock my body again and I'll lose next week xx
 
At least you didn't put on Charl so that is really good and you should be proud of that. How many times a week should you do the shred DVD? I wasn't sure and didn't know if I should have a day off it or keep going.
 
I've only done it 3 times, as hurt my knee mon, and didn't have time yesterday as my friends staying. Yeah theres no way I should put, but Im upset it's made no difference. I think I've lost half an inch from my waist though, and 2 from bust which is good. Going to do it everyday from Sunday and see how next week goes x
 
Hey all!
There's always about a million threads to catch up on when I come back on here haha! What a popular site!
I've got a bad feeling about this week but I'm trying to keep focused and positive! Went out for tea last night but wasn't really naughty like I used to be! Might be out for tea tonight, then I'm working tomorro day, Hen Doo tomorro night that involves a Chinese! Then Sun I'm taking my God Daughter to see Ice Age 4 then Pizza Hut! It's not looking like I'm getting my 1/2 stone award this week either based on all that haha! Will just have to be extra good mon-WI on Thurs!

Ahh Laura I was born broody too! I'm minding my nephew who is 13 weeks for a few hours today and can't wait! He makes me so happy!! He tries to talk, cooing at me and the smiles I get are amazing!! I'm 28 too Charl so I'm deffo ready for a baby but me and Boyf need a house 1st! Were goin the bank today to see a mortgage advisor so fingers crossed we'll have a house in a few months then I can get started!!! I've been told by 2 psychics that I'm going to have twin girls!!! Haha!!

Hope u have a brilliant 18th Laura!! Dont worry about food n drink you'll get back on track the week after!!

Thanks and carry on doing what your doing!!

xMwahx
 
I was planning on joining a group which is starting at the beginning of August but I've just completed my first week of sw at home and I've lost 2 1/2 pounds yeahhhhh so I think I will continue to go it alone (but with the help of minimins which I find keeps me motivated). I need to get the books though

Welcome ggmac, You can get the packs on ebay. Not sure if Amazon do them too. We will all help you where we can :)
 
Ahhh good luck at the mortgage advisors tilly! Hope you get a good agreed amount. A psychic once told me I was going to have 2 children really close together and at a young age, I thought it was stupid as I wasn't really ever sure i wanted kids but then fell pregnant with twins about 5 months later! Weird! Let us know how you get on :)

Well done on 2.1/2 lbs that's great!! You can get all the 2012 books on eBay pretty cheap xx

I haven't measured myself yet but am hoping for some kind of loss. I started shredding on sunday so will measure myself sunday morning. Feeling really bloated today though. TOTM so I am hoping that wont make too much of a difference to my loss of weight and inches :)
 
Aw jealous of the 13 week old haha! Got my friend's 19 month old today, and she is absolutely hilarious! Love her so much :p Seriously good luck with the mortgage advisers, hope you manage to get what you want :) Loving the sound of these psychics! I've always wanted to have twins, girls or boys :p

Charl, it might just be a random fluke that you didn't lose, at least you know you've put in the work and have lost inches! That's still really good :)

Been planning to go to a family party in London tomorrow, but didn't realise my nannie was taking me for lunch at an Italian restaurant first haha! I know it's going to be yummy, but looks like I can't be as positive about any losses on monday now :p Hoping to be really good from sunday to thursday, with as few syns as poss, and as good as I can Friday day, and just giving up for the next 3-4 days so I can relax and just enjoy myself, like you said Tilly :D EXCITED!
 
Laura you're only 18 once so enjoy it ;) just get back on plan when the celebrations are done with...

I'm joining the broody club I run a parent and toddler group so there always babies around but we're all besotted with our newest newborn recruit, his Mom only gets feeding duties when we all get our hands on him :), My baby days are over as I can't convince hubs to have one more shot lol...

Had a sneaky WI this morning lost showing a 1/2lb loss so only 1/2lb to get to my first target, I'm getting impatient to start my next target now lol, so I'm going to be extra good all weekend even though I've had a craving for champagne since yesterday afternoon ;) I think I'll try and save that for when I hit my target...

Hope everyone is having a good weekend xxx
 
Lorna - just noticed we've got the same start weight, current weight and I'd love to be your goal weight!! :)
id love to be my goal weight to but if i feel great about myself before that then ill stay put :) we can do this!! :D
 
ive got a 15 month old and hes an absolute handful, but i still cant wait to have another, im broody 24/7 me! :p
 
Saw my friends 6 week old this morning = brooooooooody!! My boys are 3 and 1/2 and nearly 2 so need to convince hubby for number 3!

I've been a very good girl today, no syns yet so having a biccie whilst at work!

I didn't get the job I went for, obviously something better out there for me :)

x x
 
Charl, sorry you're gutted about your sts. Are you due on soon? I always sts 1-2 weeks before. New week now, you will do it! Hugs x
 
I have no idea what's going on there at the mo! Hadn't had one for 5 months then 2 in the last month?!

I'm having an off plan weekend as my old housemate is visiting from Singapore, so lots of booze. I just made a SW Spanish feast (soooo good) but also had some posh bread with it and working my way through a bottle of red wine! Eek! Going to work really hard sun-fri tho to try and balance.

Sorry about the job. Def something better out there :) x

Lime juice, dry jerk seasoning, fry light, fresh gsrlic onion tsp chicken bovril, tsp cornflour, tsp curry powder squirt of tomato puree, 2 skinless chicken breasts and rice.

Thanks
