I don’t watch much linear TV, if there’s a TV programme I want to watch I tend to Sky+ it and watch at a time and date that suits me. It also means I can skip through any adverts and not get enticed by any nice pretty ones... today I saw an ad for a new Milky Bar with raisin and biscuit... and I’ve been fighting with myself all day to not go out and buy one.. but seriously this sounds like the PERFECT snack.. not quite a Twix, which is the perfect chocolate bar, but VERY, very close, lol I may have to treat myself over the weekend!
Breakfast – 2 Weetabix (HEb) 100ml of semi skimmed milk (1/2 HEa) and a banana

Was trundling along the local farmers/food market today when I noticed a stall selling ‘The Spice Is Right’ curry blends and promoting the fact that they’re only 1.5 syns per portion . Thought I’d give them a go and SOOOOOO glad I did! The spice blends were perfect and the meal was delish! Having gone through the ingredients and modified the cooking instructions to be SW friendly I don’t actually think there were any syns involved so not going to claim any. I used frylight and fat free yogurt so think I can genuinely claim it as syn free! (please correct me though if you think I’m wrong)
What I will say is that after wolfing down a hearty portion I realised that there were no superfree foods involved so had to force down a peach and an orange in the hopes that they did some good... next time I think I’ll make a veggie curry!
Breakfast – 2 slices of Nimble toast (HEb), scrambled egg, ham and a nectarine
Lunch - Parsnip soup, a plum and an orange
Dinner – Chicken Tikka Masala with saffron rice, an orange and a peach
Banana muffin (10 syns)

So weigh in was a bit disappointing. Didn’t lose anything, but still feeling a bit ruff and bloated so maybe it wasn’t really the true picture. I knew there would be weeks of not losing but I suppose after last week being so good I should have expected it but was really hoping for something similar again. I know, was just setting myself up for the downfall. But nevermind. I’m sticking with it. Hopefully next week will be an improvement and I may even have a look at trying a few green days.. if I can get my head around them...

Third green day in a row and like the carnivore that I am I’m really ready to eat LOTS of flesh tomorrow I may have to eat an entire cow! I’ve found that over the years my craving for cow has gotten greater and greater. For years I didn’t eat it, then when I did start it had to be well done.. then medium well, then.. the other week I actually caught myself sending a medium steak back because it wasn’t pink enough.. I wonder if I’ll get to the point where I ask for it to be blue...? tomorrow will defiantly be a steak day! Today I had:
Breakfast – 2 Weetabix (HEb) 100ml of semi skimmed milk (1/2 HEa) and a banana

Lunch – Tomato and pepper soup a peach and an orange
Snack – frozen muller light

Before bed - 2 slices of Nimble toast (5 syns) with 2 laughing cow light triangles (1/2 HEa)
Total 5 syns
Also bought some slimming world cookbooks so looking forward to those arriving.

don't be so disheartened, after such a massive week1 weight loss, its hard to come to terms with a STS, just think it took me 5 weeks to drop 18lbs!
