You're still within the 15 syns allowed though and all those speedy foods must be doing you some good even if they seem to have addled the mathematical part of your brain

Nice one, Smartie! I know what you mean about "new". I find the novelty of 777 quite refreshing. As a long term plan, maybe not sustainable, but as a kick in the pants, the challenge is ideal. Have a fab weigh in tomorrow x

I managed to dodge work cake. I had such a ***** day at work and came home in a total rage. Decided to have some food at the soiree...white bread cheese sandwiches, pringles, cup cake. Got home about midnight and had an unfightable hankering for cheese on toast and wine. So my day started well then went downhill lol
Lots of water and veg today.

Cheers, Smartiebob. I put on half a pound thanks to Friday's shenanigans. Why do I do it every week? I am sooo predictable :booboo:
New week today! Will go to Aldi and cook up a pile of stuff for the freezer. I find Sunday batch cooking motivating (and cheap!)

I think you need a plan of action
Could you bring your own SW food to these little soiree's? Maybe enlist the help of others to provide healthy food for a couple of weeks? How about diluting your drinks with tonic water so they last longer?
What about a 50/50 week, where you have 50% of your food free and the other half superfree? Not so draconian as success express so may be more achievable and would require less planning.
What about your portions? What about having a smaller plate for a week? You may find that you dont actually need all the food you plonk on your plate normally?
Failing that, butt kicking is an optional extra
We need to get you back into losing regulary and back into the sacred land of Onederland where you belong

Smartie - I see lots of words, but am reading "Trot off to Ebay and treat yourself to a nice piece of vintage crockery, Sausage." I love that idea!
Truth is, I don't go to a lot of soirees so that aspect is not a huge problem. Usually my Friday night fails are are of my own making in my own house. I had been so good all week on 777 and was feeling so motivated until the work folk were total bams on Friday afternoon. If I can get through next week without having a Friday binge or killing the feckers, it will be a success. I'll take your offer of a butt kicking please
I will leave the 50/50 idea for now. Sound like a lot of planning Being a vegetablarian, I tend to eat a lot of superfrees anyway and I have been trying to eat healthier syns lately such as nuts. Will keep up the water intake though as I think that really helps to curb hunger
Hugs right back at you Rozieeee! x
I hope so, Cake. I am clinging on to my 4 stone sticky for dear life! LOL

Good, productive start to the week. Got a mad amount of food for hardly any money in Aldi yaay! and cooked up a load of stuff for the freezer. I made:
2 x mushroom and lentil loaves (8 portions)
2 x carrot cakes (16 portions)
ratatouille for turning into spag bol, curry etc (4 portions)
BNS and carrot soup (enough for a small army)
Hopefully having things divvied up will help with my portion control. Been thinking about my plate size :hmm: My round plate (below) is only 8 inches on the non-painted, usable, bit. Is that big for a plate? The next plate size down I have is a Bunnykins plate and it is teeny and covered in bunnies! They might distract me!

8.5st lighter!
Sausage, carrot cake!!!! Do you have the recipe on here?
Your batch cooking looks great, ratatouille is lush isn't it and so versatile! I love it plain piled high on a jacket potato with cheese.
I think your portions are fine, I have big portions. I know how you feel and I often try and shift the balance, ie more superfree compared to carbs but the same size portions. But then other days I think sod it where's my pile of sw chips!
