wooo hoo...that's fantastic!!!! you must be buzzin!!!
what did you do that was so different to get that amount?? tell me tell me lol
hoping for a wee bit off tonight myself...there's a class at 3.30 and 5.30 and seeing as we're all off today, i considered going to the earlier one...but then thought na, i'll just stick to the same time and then there's no excuses for whatever the scales say
i was laughing at your OH bashing about....sometimes i look at men and think - you's really are a different species...my OH's up before me every morning and i don't really hear him, but they're whole way of thinking is just...well...weird sometimes hehe.
nope, i don't do exercise....i know it would help but i just don't do it. i do like swimming but that's a whoooole other thread about paranoia lol, and i have a dodgy knee so the classes that i would like to go to (ie zumba etc) would be a no no. swimming and walking would be my best bet but i'm not gonna lie...i just won't commit to say right, i'll go out on such and such a day etc...but i know i should!
i was absolutely famished when i woke this morning and had a big bowl of fruit salad...think i'm on green today but not sure what the dinner plans are.
i've been giving my friend some of the recipes that i've been making and she's been giving them a bash...except she's been adding this that and the next thing to the meals and having them with fatty goodness....i'm laughing cos it's like yeah, i'll give you healthy recipes and you bash on and obesitise them lol...aww well...she can get away with it so that's fair enough...and she has been enjoying them so that's good too
what's your meal plan for today?
ooooh 5lb...well done mrs! really well done x

I literally just stuck to plan 100% and upped my superfree from normal. But I've been mucking about for ages so I think it's just the shock of being on plan that's dropped it!! Plus it was star week last week so maybe I was holding a little water that's disappeared. Anyways I'm chuffed and its spurred me on for another good week!
Decided to ditch the roast idea and have a BBQ as its lovely and sunny here. Got some chicken and sausages out but i didn't have any diet ones in and these are 8.5 syns each!!! but not planning any syns until dinner so i think i will have one and then stick to chicken and salady bits. I'm going to make SW coleslaw, tuna pasta and a big bowl of salad. Ill make mine separate to bfs as he drowns his is mayo. I'm also going to make a SW quiche for lunches so could also have some of that if I wanted. So far today I have had egg on toast (only one slice so half a hex b). Going to have an Alpen bar for after dinner to finish up the hex. Lunch will be a small plate of meatball pasta
Done three loads of washing and got them all outside, also made the bed and opened up all the windows to get some air in the flat an done a load of washing up. Having a glass of squash and a chill out for 10 mins then ill be back on more washing up lol.
Good plan going to your usual group - you're right...you have no excuses then. Fingers crossed for you hun.

aww i'm so happy that you've seen the results you wanted then...and maybe more?!
i'm jealous of your planned BBQ...i'm not dressed yet (lazy mare lol) but it's cold and although it's bright here today, i reckon it's still chilly outside?
8.5 is a lot for a sausage but like you say, you're not planning anything else...and i bet its tasty x

Morning how'd the name change go?! Lol
I feel cheerful today going into work to report my loss to the two guys I'm dieting with (one doing well on Atkins and one not bothering at all lol)
Doing EE today as I have that roasting joint to use up. I've got cereal for breakfast and yoghurt, superfree veg omelette and salad, crisps and carrot sticks with hummus for lunch and then the roast.
The omelette is a funny story - I went to make a SW quiche...cooked the pasta n sauce and superfree and then realised I had no cottage cheese lol. So it became an omelette
Think I'm going to try and save on syns this week as I have a party on Friday with free wine and canapés (our old boss is throwing it for us as a thank you for our hard work on the old job) in a really s****y place on Fleet Street. I don't want to miss out but it might be sensible to build up some syns to spend?!

morning....
haven't bothered with the name change yet...but at least now i know how to do it if i want to
bet you were cheesing telling the guys about your FAB loss! and your food today sounds yummy!
i'm also on EE today, not eaten so far but i'm making the cowboy pie for dinner tonight with veg which is good cos there will be some left for my OH tomorrow which sorts that straight away seeing as i'll do a green tomorrow.
was thinking about taking cous cous to work for lunch tomorrow and having some mini ryvitas as my 2nd B choice for a change? i always take a sandwich when i do green so thought that would be a change...and nice to have the salt and vinegar minis as "an extra packet of crisps"
will wait and see
WI went better last night...2.5 off so that was the unexplained lb gain from last week and 1.5 more...
the party sounds like it could be challenging with it all being 'free'....and although the sw book says we can flexi syn and don't have to necessarily save syns all week for an occasion, i'd prob do what you're planning and cut back a wee bit all week x

Phew today was looooong and busy!!! I managed to stick to my food plan although I skipped my usual Special K biscuits in favour of saving some syns.
Which ryvita mini do you mean? Are they all different flavours? I was thinking of getting some normal ryvita to have for a change now and then - I think it's good to mix hex's up a bit.
I might have a red day tomorrow - salmon, veg and salad for dinner and a chicken and salad pitta for lunch. If not tomorrow then def Thursday. Running low on meat in the freezer so will have to get inventive!!
Ahh well done on your loss hun great work!! How long to go til target now?! I can't see your signature on my phone and can't remember your goals.
I don't think ill save all my syns but maybe save 5 per day to give me 20 in my back pocket. I know I can control the amount I drink but the food will not be healthy I don't think. Pastry and that sort of thing probably. That's the biggest concern but an extra 20 syns should help minimise the damage eh?!
What did you decide food wise in the end??

my target initially was to lose 2 stones then change it from there once i hit that...so i'm 5lbs away from the 1st step. will get there
the ryvita mini's i mean are the packets you buy (like crisps) and you get them in salt and vinegar, chilli and cheese and onion ( i think)
the vinegar ones are the best...i'm not a huge fan of salt and vinegar (i do like them but would NEVER be my 1st, 2nd or 3rd choice lol) but i do like them.
i got a multi pack of them a while ago but it's only 24g (30g is the HEB) so sometimes i'd weigh 15g out and have something else to make up the other half, but i got 3 of the 30g bags for £1 in asda the other week so i'm taking cous cous for lunch tomorrow and having those....and if i don't eat them at work then it's a bonus, i can have them later.
today the weather's been lovely here (for a change), i was off today so made my soup, the lunches for tm AND the cowboy pie for dinner all before 11.30 then at the last minute, i decided i was going to go and have another nosey at clothes/shoes.
i grabbed the cous cous that i had made for tomorrow and just added ham to it, took a few seafood sticks and a wee bottle of juice and off i went lol.
when i got hungry, i went back to the car and had some (took a little cool bag...how SAD! pmsl) then headed in again. didn't really get too much but it was nice to go out and about myself for a change.
i was glad i did that re the lunch cos it saved me being hungry the whole time or spending money on overpriced healthy stuff to stay on plan!
came home and had to make tomorrow's lunch again but it only took me 5 mins and by the time i'd chopped the salad stuff up, the cous cous was ready.
will see how i get on tomorrow with it but i'm hoping that by mixing things up a wee bit it might do me the world of good?
had dinner there with brussels but havent had all of my HEb yet so still able to fit a wee half B choice in as well as my A (which will be a 20g cheddar stick if anything!)
i saw on Minky's thread that she has the wholemeal crackerbread for her b choice sometimes and syns either nutella/choc philly, spreads the crackers and sandwich them together then cuts them into 4 so ends up with 12 fake chocolate wafer type things.
i want to try that but don't really want to buy a whole box cos they'll probably sit in the cupboard getting damp...not that i can't spare £1 for the box but just don't wanna waste them.
thought it was a good idea though?

Ooohhhhh not long to go how exciting! That should only take a week or three yay!
I must give those ryvita things a try - you've sold me lol. I reckon I would like the s&v as well and maybe the chilli. Would be nice to dunk in soup like a crouton lol.
Ah I'm glad you had some sunshine...and intrigued about your clothes shopping trip! Really good idea to take a lunch with you - genius!! Much better than buying shop bought rubbish and wasting some syns. Great planning!!
Did you manage to buy anything today?! Have you given OH a fashion show this Time?!
Sometimes it's nice to just have a wander and a browse and get some 'me' time.
My dinner was a complete change in the end and bf decided it was too got for a roast. But I had the joint already defrosted so I did that with some SW chips and roasted veggies.
I got a high five from one and a shocked "that means you have lost 5lb!!!" I just handed the slip from the machine over oh so casually tee hee

good for you...nothing like a wee boast sometimes hehe the chilli mini's would prob be good to dunk in soup...but on their own i think they're a bit naff...s & v are definitely the better ones...for me anyway.
i got another pair of jeggings (go me! lol)...a bit better than the others to be honest cos they're more faded so look like proper jeans. got a vest top too which i can wear with those (and my cardi of course)
i showed my OH but he's doing my head in tonight to be honest...i had a great wee time out then came in and he was grumpy and i just thought pffft! i'll walk back out again! lol.
tried a few things on - even proper skinny jeans and they were nice...but i figured that i'd save £10 and just get the jeggings as they'll look the same on anyway! think the woman was getting miffed with me asking her to get me a 14 instead - i'd picked up 16's but needed some of them changed...ahh well, that's part of their job is it not?
i agree that it wasn't the weather for a roast..or my cowboy pie...but like you, i'd prepared it all this morning so tough! and my OH's getting the other dish for his dinner tomorrow regardless of the weather! lol (think we're due rain anyway??)
i bought some frozen brussels the other day and they're really nice, had them twice so far so worth it already as i used to buy the bag from asda for £1 (that you microwave) so that's been good. i usually do my own carrots cos i'm not that keen on frozen carrots so not sure what else i'd buy to freeze..not that keen on cauliflower and dunno if frozen peppers would go a bit watery in my quiche so will keep them fresh for now.
do you have an iceland near you? i've been getting my bacon from there and you get a twin pack for £2 which is a good buy! haven't bought any of their cold meat or anything since being on this cos i'm not sure which stuff is free but i should have a look.
meant to say, i got a big new dish the other day for my quiche....big rectangle thing and did one in it yesterday for the 1st time....looked at it thinking how the hell am i meant to get this out in one piece...but i managed then cut it all up into squares and had to put them back in again cos they were a bit mushy in the middle. prob still edible but i prefer it the other way...will need to get used to how long it takes seeing as it's one big one and not 2 smaller ones like i've been doing for the past 4 months!
what's your plan for tomorrow?x

Men are a totally different species in my opinion - and they say we are hard to understand!!!
I'm really glad you had a nice day and treated yourself. Ooohhh and a 15 - get you!! i cant understand why some people work in retail. If you cant be pleasant then you shouldn't be allowed to serve customers in my opinion. I worked in shops for years while at college and Uni and was always polite, helpful and friendly.
I actually went and bought some walking shoes tonight and a mini backpack because I'm climbing mount snowdon for charity next month!! Eeeeekkkkk!!! (Need to wear them in a bit so I don't get blisters. ) and the sales girl was far too busy to help so I just pissed her off by keeping on asking her for stuff until she actually started paying attention pmsl!! That'll teach her
Apart from that purchase I have stuck to my budget for food this week of £15 and I'm pretty pleased with myself. Of course I have little in the freezer now but being as we are away next week it doesn't actually matter and we can stick up when we get back. So £15 from tomorrow for another week. Tomorrow will be EE as i have bits to use ip after the bbq. Bf has tuna pasta smothered in mayo (dread to think of the syns) and I'm having chicken, potatoes and mushrooms. Don't have much salad etc so will have extra fruit tomorrow for superfree. Dinner is salmon and veg mmmm!!
Planning on a stir fry Thursday using left over roast turkey so that will be a red day.
Frozen veg I have in all the time is broccoli, peas, sweetcorn and soya beans (love them!!) I tend to get the rest fresh but frozen cauliflower is good. And I have had the mixed veg with peas, carrots etc before and that was good too.
Yeah we have an Iceland - and actually a couple of them near work. I find it really good value but hard to resist the temptation of Indian and Chinese snacks lol. I did pop in the other day as they had the Special K biscuit moments for £1 a box!
Ahh shame about your quiche - maybe it just needed a bit longer hun. Next time I try one I must get cottage cheese hehehehe. Although the omelette I ended up with was pretty tasty to be fair.
Do you like The Apprentice?! It started tonight and bf hates it. So I banished him to the spare room to play Xbox while I chilled out and watched it. I had a vodka diet coke since I had only used 4 syns so I'm only 6.5 for the day. I didn't feel hungry though so didn't want to eat for the sake of it. Ill prob wake up starving at 5am lol

hey dolly...
sorry for the late reply...this is the 1st chance i've had to sit down properly and get on here!
how's your day been?
mine's has been ok and i enjoyed the cous cous for lunch and the ryvita mini's for a wee change. been one of those hungry days tho and i've eaten everything i've taken to work lol... doesn't happen often, just now and again but i'm kinda glad i didn't take a sandwich cos at least i was able to eat more often if you know what i mean.
nothing has seemed to fill me and it's all been healthy and free foods but just felt like i've been nibbling every hour...och well, at least i've not been eating for the sake of it eh
no, i don't watch the apprentice - is it any good?
and did you end up waking up starving?
i managed to sleep til just before 5 before i got up for the loo so that was good...a wee bit longer but i took ages to fall asleep again then i was shattered when the alarm went off...typical eh lol x

My day has been pretty hectic too! And I ate everything I took in as well. I had chicken, potatoes and mushrooms for lunch with fruit and crisps and then later had my Special K biscuits so have had 9 syns. Was trying to aim for less than that as I had a mid week WI and its showing 1lb gain since Sunday.
I'm not sure skipping my syns is gonna work this week so will see what happens on Monday following the party on Friday evening.
At least what you were eating was free and superfree. Sometimes you do just have days where you eat all Bleedin day lol I would say the apprentice is like marmite - love it or hate it - and I love it! It's such good comedy value entertainment as fully grown men and women make idiots of themselves to try and outdo each other lol. It started last night and episode two is tonight - then it's every Wednesday.
i ha a fairly good sleep although I woke up at around 3 I guess for the loo and then about 5 mins after I got back into bed my bf woke up for the loo. Strange how this is happening to use both all of a sudden lol Salmon and veggies for dinner today. How about you? What's your meal plan?!

i had baked potato with my HEa cheese and beans and some fruit salad afterwards to make up for the lack of it with dinner...although i think it's safe to say i'm well covered from through out the day!

I'm struggling for food inspiration at the moment as I'm trying to use up what we have in before we go away.
We are going for a curry in the wetherspoons tomorrow eve. Plans are changing from steak night so this is what we get instead from bf's dad. It says that its 18.5 syns on the online thing according to posts I have read on minis. That includes the curry, rice, poppadums, chutney and a naan bread. I was thinking I could skip the naan and just class it as 15 syns. What do you think?! It's only a little naan so I'm not sure if taking 3.5 syns off will be short changing myself but I'm not sure how else I could work it out?!!
This means I have to have a syn free day tomorrow. I am planning cereal for brekkie and maybe some natural yoghurt for brekkie. Lunch will be omelette and salad making it an EE day. I've got some strawberries, kiwi and apple plus a muller light. I also have syn free hummus and carrot sticks and cherry tomatoes for snacks. Think I can manage without crisps?!?!?!
The charity thing was something that we decided to do as a family - we haven't joined an organised tour or anything. Last year some of my family were involved in an accident and my cousin had to be airlifted to hospital so we are raising money for the air ambulance. So far me and my sister have raised £450 looking good so far!
Morrisons have the squares and hoops on sale at £1 per bag hun. Thought you might want to know

yeah i saw them yesterday but gave them a miss cos i got 3 lots last week and i'll get a row if i walk in with any more lol...thanks tho
that's fantastic about the fund raising! such a good cause too x
surely the naan will be more than 3.5 syns?? i mean look at what it is for a slice of bread and think of the flour used for naan? i'm not sure but i reckon it would be more?? i'm sure you'll have a nice meal out either way...i've not been out for dinner in weeks but to be honest, the appeal's not there the same as before as i make such nice dinners a lot more often, where as before, i was starving all week and couldn't wait for a decent munch come the weekend! lol x
