Slimming World Support 9

Thread 9! Can you believe it!

Ah DS was 10lbs 6 and I thought that was big! Fortunately they scanned DD and thought she'd be around 8lbs and a bit

Wow 38 weeks already! Not long left at all.

I've never birthed naturally, all of mine were extracted from the sun roof.

Pizza was delicious, you really can't tell the difference when you use the bread flour. It goes lovely and crisp.

Where is everyone today?
I've been to work this morning so having a lazy afternoon.
Today's menu;
B shreddies, healthy A&B
D chicken salad. Satsuma and yogurt.
T chicken (again) stir fry with vegetables
No syns as yet but I'm sure I will have something tonight.
Hope everyone is having a good weekend

I am trying to wake DH up (he's doing nights at the moment, this is the end of his first week, he's off tonight and I would actually like to see him for more than an hour, when one or other of us is grumpy and just woken up). I have done the food shopping and bought christmas cards today, and have got a filthy cold so am feeling all sorry for myself.

Today's food:

Brunch: Mushrooms and fried egg on toast
Dinner: Roast beef, roast potatoes, yorkies, carrots, cabbage, sprouts (brought forward from tomorrow as DH is working tomorrow night again)
HEA: Milk
HEB: Bread (toast for brekkie)
Today's syns will be honey and whisky in a hot toddie shortly. I bought lemons specially to make me feel better...

Quiet day here, DD is a bit under the weather. Decorated the Christmas tree though!

Doing ok, went over my syns yesterday. Bought a big bar of chocolate (why?!) and had half of it! I didn't really enjoy it and it just seemed pointless. Today DD has helped me make SW recipe banoffee pie, can't wait to try it!

Hope you feel better soon em everyone seems to be full of the lurgy at the moment. And I feel for your DH, nights suck, I'm always grumpy.
faith I would be the same if I bought chocolate. In fact I would eat the lot!
We have loads of tubs of quality street etc at work so I have just learnt to ignore them, which is particularly hard on a night shift!

I'm on nights tomorrow and Monday Lavender! However my ward design means there's no big nurses station so I will just have to ignore them in the staff room!

It tough isn't it faith we seem to have them everywhere, although we aren't meant to have them on the ward there is inevitably some lurking somewhere, especially this time of year.
I've taken to saying yuk in my head when I see them not sure how long I can convince myself tho!

Evening all

Been an off plan sort of day. Been picking all afternoon and just had thai takeaway plus a couple of beers.

Am not worrying though. Back on it tomorrow!

I've had a tough week. My dad has collapsed roughly 3 times a day, my mum has deteriorated in the nursing home and is now sleeping a lot, Grandson has just been moved back out of intensive care and into high dependency after 2 lots of surgery last week, then to top off my stress levels yesterday DD1 and DD3 were in a car crash. DD1 had to be cut out of her car, but fortunately both have not sustained any real damage. They are both very shaken and very bruised. Today I have felt emotionally drained and have wanted to eat everything in sight.

I tell myself they don't taste as good as I think they will, it's easier not to start than it is to stop and they aren't worth it!!

Frouby as long as it doesn't derail you the rest of the week it'll be fine

Bloody hell PA have you not suffered enough! Sod the plan for the weekend, have some cake and wine!

Oh crikey PA, what a x-post! My goodness, what a week. It's understandable that you want to eat! I hope everything settles down. Will be praying.

Blimey PA, what a week. Nobody with think twice if you have cake and wine 💐

Had a semi good day, two good SW meals and Christmas dinner out with family tonight.

Doubt I will have a loss is week, but it is what it is. Not going to beat myself up about it.

Oh PA what a shitty fucking week. Been in similar situation myself over the last month as you know. All that got me through it all was counting my blessings. It sounds very pollyanna and twee but I just kept telling myself what was good in my life and who was well. Not who was poorly and what was shit.

Hope your dds are ok this morning and not too sore xx

Sounds frightening pa. Glad they are ok, will be thinking of you.

Sorry to read about your week PA - I think idve put all my current weight loss back on if I was having to deal with a fraction of what your family have been suffering!

Pub lunch yesterday. I had a fish goujon sandwich with salad, coleslaw and a small serving of chips... It wasn't a huge meal but I'm feeling guilty about it. The rest of the day I only ate a banana and 4 satsumas.

Back on it today - I'm having tea for breakfast and then SW friendly lunch and dinner. No idea what yet.

I'm panicking as have to go to a different class this week a day early do only 4 days to repair the damage!

Survived a Christmas market today, didn't touch any of the free samples 😇

Hi guys, lovely weekend for me with friends at an Xmas party! Lovely Christmas dinner and chocolate sponge pudding, yum yum. Had 2 glasses of wine, small amount of cheeseboard (hea x3, the joys of breastfeeding), an absolutely gorgeous chocolate brownie, and generally a brilliant time catching up with everyone.

Managed to get back on it today, have stuck to it although away from home, and weigh in on Tuesday. If I gain /stay the same I'm alright about that, it's the first time I've really been off plan and it's Christmas! Got the tree today, feeling very festive. Hopefully it will encourage me to finish off my shopping and write these cards!

OrianaBanana - Sorry, only just saw your reply. Thanks - I might give it a go as I completely forgot I was planning that for tonight and haven't thought of anything else (and didn't get the mix when I was in Asda). I'm used to doing things from scratch and find it slightly irritating to have to buy ready made or the like to keep on plan....

PA - what a bloody awful run of things you're going through at the moment - hope you are ok having to cope with everything.

My stomach hasn't been right since I went out on Saturday, full of the farts

Had a good day yesterday and an SP day today. Hopefully won't have too much of a gain tomorrow. Wish I could be one of those people who eats whatever for a few days and still manages to lose 2lbs.

Lemony I have had a bad weekend too. I started with a curry and ended with a dominoes. And i will definitely see it on the scales on Wednesday wi.

Damage limitation time now.

Had a jacket potato with salad and tuna for tea and that's it today. Am having 2 x hifi later.

Felt really ropey this morning after all the rubbish I have eaten. Enjoyed my tea more than the domino's if I am honest.

Well Dublin was amazing but I'm still eating crap

I need to get my fat arse back to group and face the music and move on. I'm out again on Friday feel like things are spiralling and I need to get control again.

It's just that time of year butt, don't be too hard on yourself.

Butt I am really struggling too atm. Bought some Christmas goodies yesterday and really want a mince pie and some stollen.

WI tomorrow too. The only reason I am going is I really don't want to start again with my progress. Am doing this week and next weeks WI then not going until January. And am really looking forward to a guilt free break.

Todays plan.

B. Coffee
L. Not sure possibly a ham salad when I get home from soft play.
T. Spaghetti bolognaise

December is a really tough time. Everything feels in limbo until after the new year plus we are all mad busy too. I love Christmas but am always glad to pack the tree away and get back to normal!
