Thanks ladies! I'm going to stay online for a while I think, keep myself out of trouble. Although it has been really quiet on here lately

Oooh, I found an amazing shop in Middlesbrough today! Can't remember the name but it basically sells a load of American goodies. They had pop tarts, lucky charms, fruit loops, reeses, hersheys, tootsie rolls, twinkies, laffy taffy...not very SW friendly, admittedly, but my idea of heaven!!! I managed to resist everything, except 3 cans of diet Root Beer - my favourite! Just double checked on the Syns calculator and it's Free, so I'm just enjoying one of those now while I watch "You've Been Framed" and wait for my tea to cook Gotta love cosy weekends.

Ooo they have one of those American shops in town, and also in the metrocentre. Those 2 are called Yankee Doodle. I have to ration when I go in though or it gets dangerous

Good work! I'm terrible at sending things back when they're not as I asked for.

I love the playsuit! So sparkly... I'm such a magpie .

Great plan getting into the onesie - once I'm in my pyjamas there's no shifting me!

Morning everyone! Had a really good weekend so far and hoping to keep on track today as well. I always find I pick more on a Sunday, so hoping that by actually writing everything down I can avoid that. Really pleased that for once, when I say I am stopping in all weekend, I have actually managed it I better get a blooming good loss on Tuesday :giggle:

Hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend.

I'm so glad to see such a mood improvement from last week! I'll be holding my breath on Tuesday hoping those scales reflect your exemplary behaviour!

Thanks hun! I'm really hoping for a good loss on Tuesday, especially as I've been so good! Fingers crossed

The LM sausages are gorgeous, I've had them before! They don't have the texture of a sausage, but they're really tasty, and at Syn free you can't really complain! Not sure if they still are, but they were on offer for £1 a box in Tesco last week xx

Thank you lovely ladies!! Feeling particularly chuffed with myself for a couple of reasons today.

Firstly, when we went for lunch I stuck to the Jacket Potato. I asked for it with no butter, baked beans and cheese on the side. I asked for the side salad to come without dressing. Shock horror, they messed the whole thing up, even after we'd waited for about 30 minutes. They ended up bringing out a potato lathered in cheese with baked beans on the side, and the salad absolutely dripping in oil. I was starving, and it would have been so easy just to accept it, but I didn't..it got sent back and they brought me out fresh, this time how I'd asked for it! I reckon I saved some mega Syns there.

Another thing was that I've had my eye on a gorgeous gold sequin playsuit in Topshop for months and months. It was originally £75 though and I always begrudged paying that much. I've been watching it in the sale for ages, and I saw it in Middlesbrough last Sunday but they didn't have my size. Went back today and what do you know, there it is in a size 14. Tried it on expecting it to be a little tight, but hoping to slim into it. It fitted me perfectly!! And all just for £10 - what a bargain!! I love it, this is it:

Oh, and you will all be pleased to hear that at this very minute I'm snuggled up on the couch in my onesie watching "Come Dine With Me Down Under", with not even the slightest intentions of going out tonight

Have a great Saturday evening everyone xx

Wow that play-suit is gorgeous and what a bargain!. I have found in the past and I am really trying to be good and go out for something to eat and you ask for things to be done in a certain way, it is always messed up and I spend in the evening in a huff! good for you on being assertive and sending it back. I must take a leaf out of your book . Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Hi Stevie, checking in as have been neglectful of the forum plus myself of late! Glad to see you back on track, and that playsuit is lush! Gotta love those sales, TK Maxx is great for party gear at excellent prices, although I find the Metrocentre one the best, there's one in Newcastle and one in Kingston Park but not as good in my opinion!
I'm baking today so kickstarting the plan again from tomorrow, I've just ordered some fab black sparkle trousers and a silver sequin top for a Christmas night out so must jump back on the wagon, take over the wheel and toot that horn loudly, seeing you getting on with it is giving me the shove I need! Xxx

 

[Princess_Stevie]

Morning everyone! Brrr, it's so cold today. Was all wrapped up with my scarf and gloves waiting for the bus to work this morning, Winter is definitely here!

I've had such a great week this week, and just to put the cherry on the (SW friendly!) cake, I had another NSV last night! At the clothes swap last Tuesday I picked up 2 pairs of black Next jeans in a size 12. I bought them with the intention of "slimming into them", and was amazed when I tried them on last night and they fit me now I am over the moon, I haven't been a size 12 since probably the first year of senior school, about 9 years ago!! I've got them on today, feeling proud as punch. The only problem is I want to wear them inside out, so that everyone can see the size label :giggle:

Hope everyone has had a great weekend and that your Monday goes over quickly!

Have a lovely day!

Thank you hun! Still a long way to go yet, as I'd love to be either a size 8 or 10, but it's a huge step in the right direction When I first started SW I was hovering between a size 16 and 18!

 

[Purple Patsy]

Wow where to start?? Love the playsuit and well done on the NSV with the jeans - my dreams are made of those sort of sizes.

SO well done on the staying in and eating healthily when out even if you have to wait longer for them to get it right. Can't wait to hear how you get on tomorrow.

 

[Rochelle1]

Way to go on the size 12's!!! Wish I was in a size 12 lol! hope you have a brill loss tomorrow night x

Well done on the size 12 jeans, it just goes to show that is can be done, it really give a re-starter like myself the inspiration to keep going. Good luck for WI tomorrow x
