Everyday's a SW day...take two! :)

Shortbread is my fave thing ever!

ok, you are out of routine and eating badly and you don't feel guilty. Havnt really got any solutions for you with that one sorry lol but I think most mums are in the same boat at the moment if it's any consolation! At least you're making good breakfast and dinner choices even if the lunches and naughty snacks are bad, a little bit of something is better than nothing. Xx

still not there 100% yet...my meals have been ok tho...it's just the snacky stuff really....felt rotten last night tho and bloated today so i'll soon get back on track me thinks!x

 

[xmisskx]

sorry for the lack of posts recently...i'm here but just been posting on IG a lot more than here.

i didn't go to weigh in on fri...i woke at 8.30 and thought yeah, get up and ready now and you'll make it...then snuggled back in lol. bad me!
still not been 100% on plan since my moan the other day...meals have been ok but i've had way too many syns on other stuff.
woke up today feel naff so today has been better.

pics are of breakfast/dinner yesterday and today.

haven't done too much over the weekend, we went to the carvery for dinner and today has just been a lazy day. i went to morrisons last night so missed asda today...i really need to get back into a proper routine with shopping and meals....it's so easy to be knocked off when you're off work or picking groceries up here and there so not needing everything at once!

hope everyone is ok x

It's mine and my OH's anniversary tomorrow...he's working so dunno if we'll do anything or maybe wait til the weekend but I've spent the morning making him choc chip muffins and cupcakes with wee love hearts on them lol. Hadn't made cake since I was at school so today was a trial...they're now hiding in a box until tm and I'll do him double choc ones tm so they're fresh.

How are things with you?x

Hey hun

Just catching up. Its funny how going to work makes your eating structure better. Its the same with me, I have just had over a week off, I didn't do anything, but I used it as an excuse to be in holiday mode. I was housesitting for my mum and dad who did go away and I ended up putting on double to what my mum did!!! Crazy.

I am going to be back on it come Monday (too much social stuff going on before then!)

I hope you are well xxx

Welcome back!! Coming to subscribe x

Well done with your weight loss, well jealous!
ljust started back on my slimming world from home alone, as gained 15 lbs since last Christmas! Boo hoo! Hoping to get help on here and get to target!

 

[xmisskx]

*slinks back in with my tail between my legs* lol

hellllooo all

feels like ages since i last posted on here!

thought i'd make an appearance now that i've got my act together!

last week was my last week off work, i wasn't on plan at all but decided as i had avoided class the week before, that i'd brave the scales! i knew if i didn't go then, i wouldn't go back at all!

it took me 5 weeks to lose 6.5lbs...and 2 to put 5.5 back on!
best of it was, when i left class, and took the news of the gain, i knew i wasn't finished being awol and spent the day out for lunch and then for dinner on saturday night....yesterday was the final fling and i'm back on it today!

i need to be....was starting to feel bleurgh!
because i'm back to work, it'll be much better to get back into a routine...i really never cooked much at all on my time off and when it came to the plan...well i just couldn't be arsed! - honest or what eh!

so i'm back today - like a broken record but ready to give it a bash and see what happens taking it each day at a time.
the plan for this week is to prepare all my meals, stick to plan, embrace superfree foods and drink loads!

spent a fortune on a huge shop yesterday so i'm prepared....if i don't do it then i can't blame it on that excuse hehe

thanks to Rochelle, i tried the sw mousse....you make it using sugar free jelly made up with 1/2 a pint of boiling water and once it's cool, whizz in a tub of cottage cheese (wtf! i know!!) and then leave it to set.
now i had seen hers and thought it looked good...but in the back of my mind i fully expected to bin the lot once it was ready to taste...how wrong was i! it's actually edible! just tastes like fluffy textured jelly...i couldn't taste the cottage cheese at all!! :-O

anyway...food...

DAY - EE

Breakfast:
fruit salad with some mousse

Lunch:

Food looking good today! I purchased some Quorn nuggets today. I'm excited to try them when I've got some syns back (haha) x

They are yummy...but there are 2 types which I only discovered recently...both the same looking bag, one says meat free and the other is chicken style I think...I didn't like the "meat free" ones as much and always make sure I get the other ones

Hope you like them x

Hey Hun

Welcome back from your week off, I am also back and fighting fit, I re-joined a class last night (shock horror, I know!) I felt like i needed the humiliation of someone, other than myself, weighing me and also taking £5 of my money for the joy of it! Its a new class and a new consultant and she is really lovely, her SW journey is immense and ongoing so I immediately felt at home with her.

All I need to do now is stick to it...

So that jelly mousse affair, cottage cheese really?!? Is it really nice? I am usually on board with your creations, egg wraps, dahl loaf etc, but this one? I am a little cagey and curious to say the least... I love a bit of mousse, and am currently into the Ski Mousse, they do a choc and coconut one or a lemon meringue, but they are between 3.5 and 4.5 syns and you get hardly anything for your effort!

I have never liked jelly all that much, the consistency makes me gag, but if it were moussed, and if the mousse is syn free.... shall I give it a go?

Ooh, you do a lot of green days, have you tried the quorn lasagnes before? I read on here somewhere that they are lovely and the huge 500g one was only 10.5syns - well worth your daily syn allowance if it is really that good. As you may recall the only thing quorn I do are the delish nuggets, everything else tastes gross, but if the lassies are good and they are on offer in tesco at the moment, I might give them a go.

hey gal

well done on rejoining....it is hard, i travel out my way in the hope i don't see anyone i know! how daft is that! lol
imagine my horror when i joined the 1st time to discover the leader was someone i used to work with....ffs! lol

but we're all there for the same journey...well all share the same thoughts and feelings about our weight and if it helps keep us on the straight and narrow then we have to give it a bash eh

right...the "mousse".....i saw it and thought it looked good but when i saw it had cottage cheese in it, i was thinking noooooooo! lol
i like cottage cheese but i was convinced there was no way it would work - just no way.

wrong!
i used a cheap, savers tub and blitzed it in...i couldn't taste the cottage cheese at all...just the flavour of the jelly! even my OH said it was ok! lol

i say, give it a bash, if you don't like it, then you've only wasted a tub of cottage cheese and a sachet of jelly crystals? if you do like it....then you might like it with some fruit for a wee change? it's protein too which always helps
it's not got the usual texture of jelly, more of a bulky fluffed up texture (jeezo i'm not sure i'm selling this hehe) but it's def not got the usual mousse, light, almost invisible type texture....i won't pretend it has.

those ski things sound yum! but there's no way i'd use syns for them. i can barely bring myself to use 1 on the strawberry danios haha...i'm so tight eh....but in my book, they must be used on goodies

i've not tried the quorn lasagne. i wouldn't syn them if i can make it myself (there's that tightness creeping in again :giggle: )
love love love the nuggets and the syn free beef style with red onion burgers, the peppered steaks are ok and other than those, chicken pieces and the mince, i've not really had much else....oh, their fat free sausages, i use them a lot

i bought a can of asda's cajun chicken recently that is free on EE and red so i'm gonna give that a try soon.
coming across free/low syn foods that are already prepared is a big deal sometimes - its like woo hooooo...i don't need to cook this all from scratch! lol x

 

[xmisskx]

Yay, just checked and mine say quorn chicken nuggets x

ooooh i hope you like them!

i love them...even better than normal chicken nuggets which i'd never pick! well, i'd probably eat them off a buffet just for the sake of it :-/ lol x
