Lol ok well my SW journey in a nutshell is I first joined SW in 2011 weighing 19st 1lb. I lost 5 stone in 8 months and then my life fell apart and I went through a divorce. Now 3 years later my life is happy and settled again, I rejoined on 5th Jan this year to find I had regained 1st 12lbs (quite proud of myself that I didn't just put it all back on again lol!). So first aim is to get that off again, I've lost 1st 4lbs of it so far, and then to carry on losing the rest!

We have the sainsburys be good to yourself sausages which are also half a syn each and rather tasty. I'll prob have some left over after our sausage and mash dinner tonight so might make him a sausage sandwich for work tomorrow... 2 sausages and 1 syn isn't too bad!
Liam, the wait to 50 posts is annoying isn't it!!

He had overnight oats (mix 35g porridge oats with a tub of Muller light and leave in the fridge overnight) with raspberries for breakfast.
For lunch he has a left over sausage sandwich (8 syns for 2 slices of wholemeal and 3 sausages and a tiny bit of ketchup) and a banana, nectarine, alpen bar and Muller light and a Hartley's 10 cal jelly for snacks.
He plays football after work on a Wednesday so doesn't get home til 8pm ish. Then when home we'll be having sw lasagne for dinner

Tink, he likes sweet chilli, but not a fan of cottage cheese usually ...could be worth a try though!

Hey Clair!
Thanks for the tip haha! I get weighed at 6, then start football at 7:30-9 so i will be having something!
Any idea what i should have? Food that packs a energy punch? This will be good to know?

Bananas are a great idea Jellybean. slow release carbs and a sugar boost!
don't eat too lightly after football, up until then your day will just have been porridge and fruit! I find if I eat to little I don't lose. I'd make sure you have some protein and carbs as well as your superfree.

Pasta bake...yum. Haven't made one for a while, although I did make a SW friendly lasagne last weekend.
Well done on your 1st stone Liam
