Thanks Kayla, how are u getting on? Do u have a thread I can sub too? I'm not a huge fan of fruit so I wouldn't snack on it except maybe a banana but i love carrot sticks with reduced fat hoummus and I've made syn free falafels too.. I like your popcorn idea too Blondcat I think so too!! I weighed in at 10 st 3 lb again today ? And I updated my details - whooooooooo healthy bmi achieved ?????????? GO US!!!!! YAY!!!!

I'm clocking what works out a 2lb a week loss at the moment, finding it tough as life seems to get in the way but then it always does doesn't it lol so I have to stop using it as an excuse! I have a diary called "pig to princess diaries" in slimming world diaries. I love houmous! Nice on ryvita or jacket potato or dipped with carrot sticks or cucumber!

 

[Blondcat]

how you doing this week CW ?

 

[Chubbywitch]

Kayla 2 lbs a week is amazing! Slow and steady wins the race And hoummus on a jacket potato?! Never tried it, that's going to have to change

Blondcat, I'm good, sts this week but I knew it would happen.. No gain so that's good
Have a birthday meal tonight, zero healthy options on the menu! Going to have their soup depending on what it is and for main all they have that's looking SW friendly is a veggie risotto.. so we'll see
I'm 31 days from my holiday so I'm literally living off salads, eggs and chicken and I've given up drinking :cry:

Ok, 31 days til my holiday in Budapest which is a festival which equals skinny *****es in bikinis and shorts every day in the 30 degree heat - I WANNA AND I'M GONNA BE ONE OF THEM!

So this is my new food plan for the next month, and zero alcohol!
- one main meal each day has to be salad, it cannot be a side to go with a main course, it has to be your main meal
- min of 2L of water a day
- as low salt as possible throughout the week
- as low carbs as possible (red days work better with this challenge)
- lots of protein and fresh fruit and veg
- add some body magic to the week, even light walking, at least 2-3 times in the week as a minimum
tea/coffee/diet soft drinks not included in water allowance...

So today's plan is:

HexA: Saving it for dinner (dining out tonight, will opt for risotto if they can't rustle me up a salad, and I'll use the HexA for the parmesan cheese on the risotto.
HexB: Saving it for dinner aswell, just in case.. might have soup as a starter with some brown bread if they have it (please no white rolls, pleeeeeease!!!!)
Syns: 0.5 syns

B: Cup of tea with dash milk

L: Huuuuge superfree salad with lime, ginger, chilli and garlic dressing, 2 boiled eggs with paprika and 2 corn on the cobs and a cup of green tea. It actually was a huge salad and didn't finish it so if I'm hungry before dinner I'll have the rest.

D: Perhaps soup of the day and risotto if no salad available..

Pleeeease let me stick at this!!! Pleeeeease! Lol.. I have to have to have to reach my goal!

 

[Blondcat]

Come on CW you can do it!!! Keep going ;-)

 

[Chubbywitch]

OK tomorrow is day one of Kay's Salad Challenge so today is full of prep work for the week ahead Salads, chicken marinading, extra lean burgers ready to throw in the oven, more salad, flat tummy water made and stewing as I type
Going to give this 100% this week and next, also going to steer clear of alcohol and up the exercise.. did a 2 hour walk yesterday and plan on doing that 3 or 4 times this week too
It's going to be a good week!

[Chubbywitch]

Just spent the last two hours prepping food for the week so no excuses!
Made some bbq chicken for salads, yuk sung, tomato and basil soup and sweet potato and chickpea patties to have in a wholemeal pitta with salad..

Just had a huge salad for dinner, didn't have the corn on the cob because I forgot to put it on, oops!
So still at 2 syns so far, going to try to have no more than that.
Got some ff yogs so will probably have one of those if I'm hungry later..

HexB: Haven't had any today as it's a no carb day and I didn't fancy anything anyway.
HexA: 50g feta cheese

 

[Blondcat]

Weigh in is tomorrow and I have to do it even though I fear I may have gained. It's important to give me a jolt back to reality.

I would be loving it if I stay the same. Wish me luck!!

 

[Chubbywitch]

Fingers crossed anyway!
Best of luck with your weigh in, fingers crossed for sts / a loss for you!

Also did a 11km walk today and burned somewhere between 550-600 cals if I'm to believe the sites I checked and Map My Run app..
