A brand new thread for 2016.....:)

For old and new members alike....please join in and post food plans, meal ideas, how you use syns, weight losses and gains, how you feel.

I started exactly a year ago on 4 January 2015.
I weighed 14st 3lbs and was a size 16. Bloated and uncomfortable, I was mortified when I saw the scales.
In week 1, I lost 9lbs which has motivated me ever since.
I currently weigh 11st 3.5lbs and just missed my 3 stone certificate at Xmas. Put on 2lbs last week and not really expecting a loss this week but I want to get to 11 stone and then re set my target to 10 stone 7lbs.

I have gone down to a comfortable size 12 and even wore a size 10 Fat Face dress yesterday.

So, let's do this.

I feel quite excited. SW has definitely changed my life......:)

fanny that's amazing! 4.5 stones!

"You can do baked oats without fruit, I always put it on raw after, am buggered if I am synning sodding fruit!"

I like raspberries in it though...so I decided pancakes as I'd not miss them then, lol.

Well done losers! I maintained which is fine as I was expecting a gain and also means I get a free class as a club 10 thing.... Which also means I've been pissing about for the last ten weeks and I'm no further forward! It's my birthday today and I'm having the night off so I'm aiming for no worse than a maintain this week and then I'm on it. I'm only about half a stone from goal. This is the point where I often lose my way. Anyways....
B - egg muffins
S - arla protein pot (nice ! But need to check Syns) 2 x hifi bars HeB)
L - baked potato with lentil dahl
D - partaaaaay!

Hi all, congratulations to the losers :) There were a few comments a while ago on what to have for an Indian takeaway but I can't find them. I'm guessing a biryani might be a decent choice or tandoori chicken? Basically one of the drier dishes and no naan (Gutted about this as I love naans, but v they are massive in syns).

Sp day for me today.. anybody else doing this?

Happy birthday pisghetti!
knowler I always choose king prawn or chicken shashlick as it comes with grilled veg and a salad or a steamed spicy fish dish .No naan but I do have a poppadom usually.

I was doing an SP day but just had grapes blueberries and a Muller so am not anymore. My meals have been SP though.
B beans on heB toast, tomatoes
Lunch on the run, hardboiled eggs, raw carrot, tomato, satsuma, 2 hi fi, was heB2 but now will count as 6 syns
Muller, grapes, blueberries
D will be ras el hanout marinated lamb with grated raw cabbage and carrot, roast pepper, courgette and onion , yogurt and mint dip.
HeA milk in coffees

Sp... my friend also had that problem started well then ate muller and grapes..it can easily be done without noticing. Ive had baked beans,egg,onions and swbeef burger and tomatoes
and tonight doing lamb saag for first time with pak choi and broccoli

Maintain for me this week which was fair enough as I have been a bit off plan for a few weeks.

Have joined the social team to try to get me back on track!

B - porridge, yoghurt and berries
L- pea and ham soup, fruit, hi fi (3 syns)
Snack- ryvita (3 syns) and smoked salmon
D- mallons sausages (1 and a half syns) spuds, turnip and green beans.

Syns- 7 and 1/2 above plus 1 sugar andplanning on 1 gin (3 and 1/2) and slimline

Just having the chicken/prawn noodle SW meal for dinner - it's really quite spicy! The box does indicate this but I didn't realise til I got it out for dinner!

Congratulations to all the losers!

SP day today:

Brunch: Bacon, scrambled eggs, beans, mushrooms. Tassimo cappuccino (2.5 syns)
Coffee while doing shopping in Waitrose (HEA)
Snack: 3 satsumas, apple.
Dinner: Salmon, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots. 1/2 syn muller yoghurt, frozen.
Snack: Hifi bars (HEB)

I do the occasional SP day, but, I actually really struggle with them as I don't eat meat, rarely eat fish and I don't like things like cauliflower...so no cauliflower rice.

I tend to have soup and salad with eggs, it's ok once a week, but I couldn't do it for longer than a day at a time.

Arla protein pots are only 1 syn and blummin lovely.

Please excuse Oriana for a moment while we have words......

Diet Coke chicken is delicious.

Ahem........

For Oriana

Yum

Happy birthday Pisghetti, and well done losers!

My day...

B - Muller Light and a satsuma

L - stir fried veg with chicken, soy sauce and lemon juice

D - Pizza on a HexB wrap using my HexA allowance of cheese, plus tomato purée, peppers, sweet corn and chicken. Plus SW chips and the rest of the stir fry veg. Random combination but bloody lovely

Syns to come in the form of chocolate later...

B......3 Linda sausages, bacon and beans
Apple
L.....pasta with pesto, ham, mushrooms, kale
Yoghurt, 2 tangerines
D....Diet Coke chicken, rice, sprouts and carrots
35g crunchy bran, yoghurt, apple and tangerine

Am still hungry......

Ohh that pizza looks good emily.

Which wraps count as HEXB?

And calzone do you have a recipe for that chicken? Looks delicious.

Pizza looks fab, it makes cheese look good too. Who have thought 30g of cheese was so small! Hardly even worth dirting the grater for to make it look but more

Had a minor slip today in the form of a couple of bites of the pizza that I made with DS because it looked delicious and I've had no cheese for almost 2 weeks!!!! But I'm making that pastitso thingy tomorrow and I'm going to bloody enjoy it!

Need to work out some different breakfasts so I don't need milk every day. Do I need milk for overnight oats?

B - Coffee

L - Repeat of yesterday

D - Bolognaise, pasta, cheese and salad

L - Mini twirl

Enjoy the pastitsio basin!!

I used the Weight Watchers wraps, I think the BFree ones count as HexB as well...

That was 40g of cheese, I buy the reduced fat stuff so I get more of it

Also...re: breakfast ideas...what about scrambled eggs? I beat mine with a little bit of fat free natural yoghurt, means they still taste nice and creamy but without using any HexA allowance! Or omelettes...boiled eggs...beans on toast?

Which sausages do people recommend and can they be bought in the usual supermarkets?
