[calzone]

New day with sunshine!

Have a great day.....am going to eat less but stuff myself with melon!

Rag.....I have no idea.

It must be the flour in the bread as 25g is 4 syns.
DH keeps asking me about the science of sw but am not interested really. As long as I keep losing weight!!

B.....overnight oats
L....vegetarian sauce with stacks of mushrooms
Pot pineapple
D....turkey mince, vegetable, stock concoction on rocket

Velvets 4syns
Oat bar 3 syns
Kitkat 5.5syns
Mayo 1 syn

Today I have totally stuck to plan. Out of interest I put my food details into my fitness pal. I was surprised when it showed that I had consumed 1600 cals. It also says I have had less than a quarter of the daily recommend intake for calcium and iron.

I was wondering if anybody else has done this, and been surprised by the outcome.

Yay!!!!!! 4.5lbs off!!!!!! Woooooooooooo!!!!!!

B.....overnight oats
L....bns soup, nectarine
D.....chickpea loaf, macaroni cheese, muller rice (which I made myself)

Well done calzone! Great loss.

1lb off for me this week. All my own fault - only got back on it on Monday so not too bad I suppose.

Sea biscotti - I haven't done that. Although I have to admit to not following SW to the letter. I will give it a go though. Be interesting.

Hi everyone, I joined yesterday so today is my first day back on plan. Looking forward to some serious meal planning and batch cooking!

B: 2x Hifi lights, Danio yoghurt (1 syn), grapes, banana, coffee
L: Baked potato with beans
D: I'm working 9-5pm and then at college 6-9pm so it's a mugshot before I leave the office and then ham and lentil soup when I get home. Maybe a milky hot chocolate to finish my A choice too

calzone, thats wonderful! Well done you!

Im having a variable week - took DD to uni last week so missed weigh in, also stuffed my face through stress.

Been on track more or less this week, so hopefully no gain.

B: toast, smoked salmon, lightest philly (1.5s)
L: baked potato, 2x light babybel (4s) slaw, tomato. Mullerlight
D: beef stirfry and noodles. Curly wurly treat size (3.5), mullerlight

Morning everyone! I really enjoyed yesterday, I love being able to eat so much without feeling guilty or like I should be restricting.

Today looks like this:

B: 2x Hifi lights, grapes, cherry Danio (1.5), coffee
L: Ham and lentil soup, strawberry Danio (1.5)
D: 2x Heck pork sausages (6), SW chips, egg fried in butter (2)
E: 45 minute spin class after work

"Why is one piece of bread only allowed as a HE but potatoes/pasta/rice is unlimited? Surely they are all carbohydrates?"

Firstly because weight for weight, bread has more calories in it and secondly...you wouldn't often eat loads of pasta or potatoes by themselves or with very little other food, but people will do that with bread. So potatoes and pasta would usually be part of a meal and so then self limiting because you get full, bread with just something like butter on it, is nowhere near as filling. (Don't know about you, but I could eat today till it's coming out my ears, lol)

So it's not to do with carbs at all, it's more to do with calories and portion control.

Toast - not today

1/2 on today. on the white wine and daim bar diet . This week I shall pull it back (although i'm out for lunch and have just come back from a macmillan coffee morning). I am going to plan!

That half will be off again next week! I hope you had fun at the coffee morning, I definitely couldn't be trusted around homemade cake

Can I join? I've only been doing SW for a week and am also pregnant, so not actually weighing in at the moment.

I really really struggle with red days, but I know I need to do more of them. I'd love any advice on good filling meals.

I bloody love toast.

B.....coffee

L....3 Linda sausages, beans, scrambled eggs

D....pulled beef, new potatoes, salad
Had a hm pitta using whole meal flour and water but it's apparently 8 syns!!
Mullerlight and banana

I thought I'd done well with coffee and a yoghurt for breakfast but you've beaten me Calzone :o

Toast for lunch. I had meant to do beans too but I was too busy. There is cottage pie for dinner later. Current syns standing at one in the cottage pie (cornflour) but there's a fake magnum with my name on it in the freezer for later which will take it up to 13. Well worth it.

whats everyone planning this week?

ROast chicken
LAmb Tagine
Buritos (found a packet mix, im going to have mine "naked" ie without wrap, unless I can find some WW HexB wraps?)
Thai style Pork chops and rice
Spaghetti Bolognese
Paella

SW friendly bolognese and tagine already batch cooked today (saintly).

Welcome Procrastinator......

Had a bacon and egg sandwich on a thin today.

L.....leftovers of salad, potatoes and smoked salmon
Banana and fig

Went to friends for dinner.
Stayed on plan with eggs, salad and fresh fruit.

Food for this week......

Steak, sweet potatoes and broccoli

Mushy pea curry and rice

Turkey burgers, wedges and salad

Carrot and coriander soup

Turkey stir fry with noodles and prawn crackers

There's jackets, spag bol, chicken soup and something involving bacon to have this week. I need to shop too, but I shop midweek.

I'm making a vegetable curry today and I think i might have a stab at the crustless quiche at some point too.

My rough plan is

Salmon and stir fry veg tonight
SW bolognaise
Jacket and beans
SW fish and chips and peas
Italian chicken escalope with pasta and roast veg

A veg curry sounds like a good idea.

Also fancy chilli con carne so might make a batch of that.

Breakfasts this week - 0% Greek yoghurt with strawberries and blueberries

Lunches - variety of salads and soups.

Trying to stick to SP today and tomorrow. I don't like having to many carbs and sticking to SP Monday and Tuesday will hopefully help alleviate the wine and naughtiness of the weekend!

Terrible, terrible weekend food-wise. Too busy celebrating passing my driving test and buying my first car! Chocolate on Friday, McDonald's (drive thru, natch ) on Saturday, curry and naan with fruit cider and sweets last night... just awful!

I'm off for the September weekend today but I'm back on the wagon and I can now go to a more local class tonight thanks to having car, rather than giving up my lunch hour for a weigh and go class near work. I'm not looking forward to facing the scales tonight

B: 2x Hifi bars, Muller Light, banana, coffee
L: Mugshot, Apple
D: Chicken breast cooked in Maggi seasoning, veg, possibly potatoes if I fancy them

B: Toast x2 (hB) eggs, tomato
L: Chicken Noodle Soup - free and filling! Mullerlight
D: SW spag bol, salad. Sprinkle of cheese (4 syns) Mullerlight

Sn: Lots of fruit

Chicken Noodle Soup:

Litre of stock made with flavourpot or stock cube - I use the lemongrass and ginger one.
1 sheet of dried egg noodles
piece of chicken (leftover from roast dinner, but have used sliced chicken pieces from a packet before)
1 chunk ginger - about 3/4 inch cubed - cut int small chunks
1 garlic clove sliced
1tbs soy sauce
c. 1/2 small tin sweetcorn
1 -2 spring onion, chopped
1 small carrot, grated (optional)
You can also add 1/2 tsp sweetener if you feel the need to take the edge off the saltiness.

Chuck together in a pan and bring to the boil. Simmer for 10 minutes until noodles tender. Would serve 2.

Well, I somehow managed to lose half a pound! I almost fell off the scales in shock

I've batch cooked some spicy chicken pasta (syn free) so that's lunch sorted for the next three days. I'm determined to get a good loss next week, tonight was a total fluke and I can't get too comfortable!

B.....fruit and yoghurt

L....thin HEB, smoked salmon, crayfish, salad & Mayo

D....macaroni cheese
Courgetti with seafood sauce

Syns
