Sounds like you had a great time and a size 10 is a bonus! Kind of dreading the day a lot of my clothes are too big as I love a lot of them. But one advantage of getting smaller is that I can shop in a lot more places!

 

[jenniecakes]

Well done on only having 4 syns! Everything smells so good whenever I go to the trafford centre, it's very, very hard to resist the treats, but I'm sure the size 10 dress spurred you on.

 

[emma_88]

Woooo size 10 feels awesome like. Can't wait until I say I'm wearing size 10 work pants

I've just had an orange & dark chocolate Muller for the first time, and oh emm geeee it was delicious! Why have I only tried this now??? I have been missing out big time! Haha. It's definitely curbed my sweet tooth cravings.... For now!!

 

[NewMe14]

Hey everyone, I love weekends

Last night was great spending time with Carly, we had a good old crack, a nice Indian takeaway and watched sexy Robert Downey Jr in Iron Man 3, mmmm!! We shared a portion of Chicken Tikka Masala with pilau rice, a poppadom & pickles and I even resisted a piece of naan bread!

I went into town this morning and bought that maxi dress that I wanted from New Look, another piece of clothing in my wardrobe that is a size 10. Amazeballs!

I know I'll never be a size 10 in jeans/pants because of my body shape (I'll always be 'hippy') but I never thought in a million years that I'd be buying size 10 dresses from New Look, eeekkk!!!

I'm having another Extra Easy day today as I'm not 100% sure what to have for tea, I'm babysitting Sophia tonight so depending on what I fancy at the time, I may turn to a Chinese takeaway, naughty I know. But it'll be within my syn allowance, so why not eh.

[x_intoxicate]

Well done on getting into the 10's!! The day I see that number on the scale will be surreal!! x

 

[Princess_Stevie]

Good luck for weigh in Emma. I'm sure you'll do fab as always xx

 

[jenniecakes]

Spag bol... I'd love that right now!!!! Think we're on stir-fry for tea tonight or maybe salmon... still undecided.

 

[emma_88]

Thanks girls, fingers & toes crossed for a loss

Can't wait for spag bol tonight, proper filling food, nom nom!

Jen - Have a salmon stir fry best of both worlds, haha.

 

[emma_88]

Well I've discovered some new salad bowls from Asda!

- Asda Spiced Chicken & Mango salad bowl (164 cal) (Mango chutney/sauce is seperate)
- Asda Sweet Chilli Chicken Noodle salad bowl (192 cal)

I've tried searching the syn values online database but no avail so I have emailed Slimming World direct to ask when the syn values will be available. I would normally use the 20cal = 1syn method but with it being a salad & having a 'free food' allowance I don't really know if this works?

I haven't tried either yet, but they both look really delicious and will be handy for anyone on the go / wants a quick lunch. They're on offer for 2 for £3

I'm so excited to try them lol, will be having one tomorrow for my dinner even though I won't know the syn value, seen as though they're both under 200cal I'm sure they can't be that high? Right? I know Tesco do a similar chilli chicken noodle salad that is only a few syns right?

 

[Target_Rose]

Those new salads sound lovely, I've noticed Tesco have brought a new pulled pork one out too. Good luck for weigh in x
