Help needed for 1st day......

i've seen them on ebay for £5!!
the ones i get are £1.95 a box so i'm thinking hmm....i could still make a pound or 2 and undercut these guys lol.

i thought you only gave your card over when you were paying and weighing....and the shop's always different? suppose it depends how the class is set up?

i can get you some and post them to you/your work if you wanted? but i'd give it a bash....i saw that a girl on another thread popped in to a class during her lunch break and got some....and she's doing sw herself too ;)

feeling your pain with being sleepy this morning...but as you say, you have tomorrow to look forward to (in a sense)

the weather is miserable today here...it's just started pouring! just what i need to drop teeny off for the day and head to work...july?...pfffft! lol x
 
its a bit overcast here but not raining. Meant to be a scorcher this weekend thankfully. The next few weeks are meant to be nice and hot too so we may even have some sort of summer! I am off work Week of 22nd July so no doubt the sun will be gone by then!!!!

lol - yeah you could be my mail order courier :D
I think i might find the number for a consultant near my work and give them a call. I can explain that i did join but do it from home now on my own for various reasons and would still like to buy hifi's and see if they will let me pop in on my lunch break. If i was the consultant I wouldn't say no but I can only ask i guess. If not then I'll give you some money and you can get a couple of boxes for me and post them down every now and then (if you don't mind the hassle? I can transfer by paypal, BACS or send you a cheque etc) But i will see how i get on with the phone call first - if not then its alpen lights for me :)

Someone has brought a load of pastries in to work for us all and i am really tempted. I could have half a one (7 syns) and my crisps at lunch and then just not have any syns tonight but im not sure if its worth it?!?!?!

HELP!!!!
 
oooh your post was 5 hrs ago.....
what did you do???

its a good idea to phone the consultant and like you, i wouldn't say no..but if you say you're doing it yourself, she might say no and spend her time encouraging you to join?
i'd brave it 10 mins after a class has started and if it's chaos then you're in lol.
but it's no probs for me to send some x
 
:) I am pleased to say I resisted and will looked forward to a treat later along with a nice pimms :)

I had to work late today so just waiting for the train home now. Absolutely shattered!! So pleased I can just get up when I like tomorrow. Going to make the most of it as ill be up early for shopping Saturday.

I'm going to pop to aldi and see what it's like there. Have you been there to shop? (I'm sure you have lol)
 
yeah, i go in for some fruit and veg (still get other fruit at asda though) but their super 6 can be quite good sometimes.
i get milk, eggs and loo roll from there and their chive cottage cheese too as it's free.

i sometimes get their fresh chicken - £2.99 for a small and there's plenty of breast meat for us all at dinner time (i only eat the breast meat so the rest goes to waste really :( )

my friend was in for a bit there so was super hungry for dinner. flung together a baked potato with HEa cheese and salad....it was so yummy and a good choice!

great news on the resistance again from you....you're getting good at it now ;) x
 
I am getting good at it aren't I?! :) so pleased with myself for finally getting some will power. And now I can have a treat in full control this evening.

Bf is staying at his dads so I can actually have a lie in tomorrow. Hopefully that will sort me out.

I've heard about the super six deals on veg. Thought that would be good for making soups with actually. I bulk buy toilet roll etc from Costco but I'm interested to see what they do at aldi.

How's your food been today?! Your dinner sound a great!! Well done for sticking to plan!
 
food today's been ok...another green and i started the day with fruity cous cous again then a wee drop magic porridge once i was at work. had a mug shot and the last of my lentil soup for lunch and of course the baked potato for dinner.
had an alpen light and 2 ryvita when i got in from work so still got a hifi light bar to have :D
no syns used so far so not sure what i'll have soon...something though ;)

sometimes the super 6 are great and i get a few things or all of them but other times i don't bother.

i get their loo rolls...9 for £2 and they're pretty decent....some cheaper stuff can be naff but i don't mind it all and it actually reminds me of asda's own so not bad at all for the money...and of course when teeny goes loo roll happy at times, i'm not paying over the odds lol

did you go to aldi? this is their super 6 for the next 2 wks if you didn't...

Wow those offers are amazing! I was planning to get kiwi and peaches in my shop anyway so I'm super happy with that - thanks :)

And the salad bits and potatoes will be ideal for the BBQ on Saturday too!! I'm just about to have a nice soak in the bath and relax before snuggling up in bed. Haven't had any extra syns and I might just save them for BBQ on Sunday :)
 
enjoy your soak in the bath...with one small one now in bed, i'm heading for some chill out time before heading to bed myself.

the super 6 is for 2 weeks and changes on a thurs.

last time i got an iceberg lettuce, pack of grapes, cherry tomatoes and garlic bulbs for 49p each i think - bargain! glad to have helped ;) x
 
hello :)

I am in a really good mood today despite being on the phone to my works IT helpdesk for about 2 hours to start my day. Its lovely and sunny, i didnt wake up til 8:30 (im not great at lie ins am i lol), the tennis is on and bf just called me up and asked me to go meet him after work in kings cross to go out for dinner. (Although he has just called again and said lets watch tennis at home today and go out tomorrow night instead lol)

Harmony has definitely been restored in my house i think thank god!

Food wise I have had bacon and egg for breakfast and now i will save my hexb and all my sysn for tonight. Glad i didnt use 9 of them yesterday as now i can go out tomorrow and pick something without worrying too much. I will still go for something healthy but wont need to worry about oil, dressings etc :)

hey mrs....
glad to hear you've got a wee spring in your step and the weather will def be a bonus too!

been busy at this end...so far i've done the ironing, cut the grass and painted the fence - i'll make a good wife some day hehe (or is it a case of i don't need anyone cos i can do it all myself! lol)

started my day with some pudding rice, chopped banana, frozen raspberries and a dollop of yog and had some fruit salad after i painted.
got a sausage on the now and a boiled egg left from yesterday so i'm gonna have that soon.

weather here isn't too bad...it can't make up its mind whether to stay sunny or grey over but as long as the rain doesn't come on and my fence paint gets a chance to soak in i'll be happy.
let teeny give me a hand and we lasted an hr which i was shocked at seeing as i thought he'd get bored lol, but it was enough to paint the outside which was the worst so i can muck about with the rest another time.
he was absolutely covered as you can imagine so he's been scrubbed down and can get showered after he's finished his fruit salad

i was supposed to be working tomorrow but had annual leave approved at the last minute which means YAY!
my OH's not amused as he was supposed to be off sat, sun, monday but said he'd do overtime cos i was working but in all fairness...with what's been happening at this end - i think the overtime is a good choice on his part regardless of whether i'm off or not!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that was nice of you OH to suggest dinner...you'll enjoy it much more now that things are better ;) x
 
wow - it sounds like you have had a really busy day!! well done for getting teeny involved - i bet he loved it. I've been sitting outside on my laptop doing some work but having an easy-ish day since I have been run ragged recently. I've got the tennis on as well :)

whats the plan for dinner? I had some sweet potato chips for lunch and a bag of crisps - so it felt like a really naughty lunch but actually only 6 syns for the crisps lol. Im doing roast lamb for dinner since i got it out for yesterday and then bf ended up going out for dinner. So it needs using up and we will have to just put up with a hot meal even though its really warm and sunny lol.

Ahh i can understand why your OH was annoyed - my bf gets like that when i have a last minute day off. he says 'oh i wont go in today and we can spend the day together' when what he really means is 'its not fair that i have to work and you don't so I'm going to spend the whole day in bed' lol. that boy could sleep for England. What are you going to do with your weekend?

yeah its really good that we will be going out for a meal and because its tomorrow now i can do a bit of planning and decide where we should go! That should help me keep on track!
 
nice day all round for you it sounds....

plan for dinner is pork chops, sw chips, onions, mushrooms and tomato, but i just realised i have a full packet of chicken breast which is up tomorrow so not sure whether to use that today instead?

never really had a proper lunch, just picked at some cold meat, seafood sticks and a wee bit of sw quiche but i'm hungry now and regretting not having something "Proper" and kinda thinking roll on dinner time! lol

what you fancying for your meal then? any thoughts yet?x
 
oohh dinner sounds nice whether you go for pork or chicken :) my roast came out ok but im still hungry. im going to wait a little while and have some fruit and yoghurt.

i used 2 syns in olive oil for dinner because i ran out of frylight. so have 7 left if i fancy something later on.

im not sure where we are going tomorrow yet -would be nice to go to a different town or maybe into london. guess we will see tomorrow how he feels once he gets home from work. I just fancy some good pub grub to be honest lol
 
mmmm....pub grub is gooood!
but to be fair, you could probably make everything on the menu in a sw style anyway...and i always like to go for something that i'd never have on plan.

opted for the chops, chips, mushroom, onions and tomatoes...was bloody good!

think i must've got the sun today even though it was cloudy and really windy at times....my face feels like it's on fire but thankfully...it doesn't look like that lol x
 
This is what I'm dealing with....

Looks sore but isn't hurting at the moment. I really should buy some sun cream though for next time. It's meant to be scorching over the weekend here :)
