Weighed in this morning, showed a 2lb loss !! No idea how that happened. Weekend has been full of wine, crisps and dips !! Oh well, I'll take that more than happily and just try and be good this week and hope it doesn't catch up with me ... Smile

I have not been good this weekend. We bbq'd on sat, i loves a cheeseburger, i do Blush

We had salad too. And potatoes. And coleslaw. And pimms.

And basically the same yesterday.

I'm not going to get to wi this week either, got to wait in for my new fridge/freezer to be delivered. Don't know whether that's good or bad!

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/07/2013 13:16

Hmmm having been that good. Hot weather means BBQ and pubs in blondes land

Can I join please? Overseas so can't get to a group so am hoping I can use this board for some motivation and inspiration. I've used Slimming World before and got some good results.

IsaacCox · 08/07/2013 15:53

Glad you had a good time Huffpot. I'm sure you didn't look like a baby elephant!

Sorry, not sure about the flatbread syns mellie, hopefully someone will be along soon who knows. Well done on the loss, at least it's going in the right direction :)

Well done mini! :)

Haha Beth, I loves a cheeseburger too. Jel of your BBQs!

I'll join you on the naughty step Blondes! I have spent many happy hours in beer gardens this past week!

Don't worry Fairygen, I'm sure you'll claw it back :)

Welcome goodbyeyellowbrickroad :)

Today for me:
B- alpen light bar 1/2 HEB & banana
L- pasta & sauce with bacon, 1 dry piece of bread to make up the other 1/2 HEB, cheese HEA, clementines and watermelon
D- will be chicken salad

Did about an hour in the gym this morning and some walking round town. I've read a SW magazine and my head is back in the zone.

motherearth64 · 08/07/2013 16:53

I find if I drink alot of water I can get around 6lb loss, shame I dont do it all the time, too many trips to the loo lol x
to date I have lost 3stone 9half pounds . Still got another 4.5 stone to go x

Fairygen · 08/07/2013 19:02

mellie, according to the SW website, 1 flatbread is 18 syns.

muminthecity · 08/07/2013 19:11

Well done to all the losers. I have been awful this weekend, ice creams in the park, pub lunch yesterday and lots and lots of alcohol Blush. Had a great weekend though, so can't complain too much Grin.

Back on track today for some damage limitation and fingers crossed for weigh in tomorrow!

B - Banana
L - Prawn salad, loads of superfree stuff in it, watermelon and a muller light
D - Pepsi max chicken with noodles and salad and extra vegetables
S - Packet of skips (4.5), light mayonnaise (3), satsumas

Have drank about 4 litres of water so far today, will do the same tomorrow and will spend my lunch break in the gym.

THREE STONE AWARD!! Whooop!

And that's after having chips, gravy and a buttered barm on Monday and an ice cream cornet on Saturday.

Went to Wagamama for lunch yesterday & my chicken tama rice is allegedly 16 syns! I'm wondering how when it's griddled chicken & veg in some broth with rice. Surely even the sticky rice isn't 16 syns?! Shock

IsaacCox · 08/07/2013 19:45

Woohoo well done iklboo :)

MamaChubbyLegs · 08/07/2013 20:40

Hello all, well done losers, and good luck to all about to wi!

I just got back, having lost another 4lb, so got my half stone award. Yay!

Feel a bit of a fraud, because I was ill this week and just didn't eat Blush

MamaChubbyLegs · 08/07/2013 20:42

iklboo congratulations on your award!!

Perhaps there are hidden fats and flour in the broth? Confused

I would have thought that was minimal syns Sad

MrsHelsBels74 · 08/07/2013 20:44

I got my half stone award last week but then went out on Saturday & went totally off plan. Back on now but I'm convinced I'll have gained this week, just want to get this weigh in out the way.

iklboo · 08/07/2013 22:20

I'm wondering if someone did the 'calories & content per serving' from the Wagamama site & then 'upgraded' it to SW? As chicken is fairly high calorie / protein wise it would have skewed the calculation. Definitely no flour in the broth - it was just stock. Not even any wine in it!

It was bloody yum though Grin

Huffpot · 08/07/2013 22:30

Just sticking my head in to cheer Iklboo madly waves pom poms in the air while jumping frantically for extra body magic

And well done mama more enthusiastic but more exhausted cheering Grin

Blondeshavemorefun · 08/07/2013 23:06

Thank you ladies! Makes me feel better about my planned birthday blow out nicities in a couple of weeks Smile.

holidaysarenice · 08/07/2013 23:42

I did it! 5lb off this week!!

schooldidi · 09/07/2013 06:58

well done iklboo.

schooldidi · 09/07/2013 06:59

And well done holidays. How did you lose so much?

pinktransit · 09/07/2013 07:14

In answer to the question above about diet coke pork, I used shoulder steaks cut into chunks, as that's what I had in the freezer.
WI last night - 2 lbs off, and my stone and a half award!!
Only 9 1/2 lbs to go to target - I say 'only', but it feels like I've been doing this forever and it will take weeks and weeks more to lose the last half stone and a bit.
Still, it will come off, even if more slowly than I want. I've been pretty much staying the same/ 1/2 lb off for the past month, so it could take a while...

Huffpot · 09/07/2013 07:57

Well done pink and holidays Smile

IsaacCox · 09/07/2013 08:26

Well done mama, holidays and pink :)

IsaacCox · 09/07/2013 08:28

Think today will be:
B- weetabix HEA and B
L- egg salad
D- something with mince, maybe burgers with chips and salad
