Well done mum

I've had an appalling day today and I don't know why. Unexpected visit from an old friend, glass of wine to catch up, next thing I'm down a bottle. Then coz I was tipsy got talked into ordering a takeaway for tea. I did only eat half but I'm going to be hugely over Syns and I'm really pissed off at myself - especially as I only had a planned flexible syn day on Friday.

Going to feel sorry for myself tonight and be back on plan tomorrow. Just going to have to take the hit on weigh in day and see what I can salvage from this week.

BasinHaircut · 05/02/2017 20:57

Wow mum that is some restraint you showed! I think I would have cracked at the dessert place.

clash just take it on the chin and start again tomorrow. Still 5/7 on plan!

Groovee · 05/02/2017 21:41

Well done mum.

Clash, draw a line under it.

Have just realised my itchy spare tyre has a horrific rash. Dh is out at a Super Bowl party and Dd has helped me put aveeno on it. Never had this before. It really hurts x

Groovester · 05/02/2017 22:12

My eating marathon has continued. Way over syns. Think I'm on about 20. Apart from a blip on Boxing Day, this is the first day where I've really failed since starting SW. Hey ho, tomorrow is a new day.

OwlinaTree · 05/02/2017 22:37

20 syns isn't too bad groovster.

Baby is in her own room tonight after yet another terrible night with her. Hoping it will be quieter for her on her own and she'll sleep better. I'm falling asleep here, could really do with a good night tonight.

Groovester · 05/02/2017 22:42

Thanks owlina - I normally hover between 5-8 so way over my normal day. I've also eaten a lot of free and speed today too. Feel like a big fat fatty Blush

Groovester · 05/02/2017 22:44

P.s. I think everyone sleeps better when the little ones move to their own room. My first was about 5 months but my 2nd went when she was about 3 months. She was a hellishly light sleeper. Hope you get a better sleep tonight.

OwlinaTree · 05/02/2017 22:45

Thanks, fx!

Creakyknees · 06/02/2017 00:26

Hi there, losing the will to live with my diet. Love SW but no willpower. 😞

madein1995 · 06/02/2017 01:47

Hi everyone. Had a tough few weeks but lost 3.5 pounds so far. Not great but better than nothing abd am totally on plan now
I had a lay in today. Lunch was chicken, carrots, broccoli, yorkshires, slimming world roasties, gravy and 1 stuffing ball (13 syns)
Snack - clementine, blueberries and a muller light
Tea was boiled rice with peppers and mushrooms also a mini (prqctically minute) malteser bunny for 2 syns
Then had 250ml semi skimmed milk and 2x hifis
Snacked on a slice of ham

A lot of food and not sure if ill lose eating thst much but ive stuck to my syns and healthy extras so ought to, the point of free food is to eat as much as you need? And the fruit/veg is good

Planjing a sw theme chippie tomorrow - sw sausages, sw chips, mushy peas and the sacred sw chippie style curry sauce i managed to find in my local iceland after months of searching!

LynsW77 · 06/02/2017 04:40

Thanks for the welcome 😊 It's star week as well (since yesterday) which explained a lot last week....!! I'm looking forward to getting back into it, I originally lost when it was red/green days so I'm a little anxious as I've never done as well on extra easy, but as you said, the ritual humiliation of being weighed is hopefully the incentive I need!
Have a good day all, I have training this morning so won't be able to have breakfast due to stomach cramps and feeling sick so I empathise Groovee I've been munching my way through stomach tablets for the last few days, reflux is horrid... I'm planning to cook up a batch of the muffins to last for the week, not done them before so fingers crossed 😊
I hope baby slept better Owlina Tree and that food looks delicious BasinHaircut I have to cook roast chicken for dinner as ds was wiped out with stomach bug and dp was playing golf yesterday so I'm going to attempt to live without fat drizzled roasters 😳 Xxx

LynsW77 · 06/02/2017 04:45

ALemonyPea my dp is the same - he has only got to have one less take away a week and it drops off him - it's what's spurred me back to it - there's no way I can be heavier than him - especially considering I'm a shorty and he's ex-rugby 😳

Groovee · 06/02/2017 04:59

Oh Lyns it's awful. Sorry you are suffering. I have an endoscopy tomorrow hence why I am so bad as they take you off meds for it. Xx

BasinHaircut · 06/02/2017 07:11

creaky how can we help?

I'm sure we can come up with some things between us to keep you on track. Which element are you struggling with?

Good luck all who weigh in today! I'm hoping I'm good for a pound off tonight.

Groovee · 06/02/2017 07:23

Creaky what are you struggling with? Can we help

OwlinaTree · 06/02/2017 07:28

Thanks lyn. She slept through! Me and dh so relieved. Toddler came in and woke us up at 6.30 instead!!

BasinHaircut · 06/02/2017 07:55

owlina that's amazing! That feeling when you realise it's morning and it's the first time you've been awake since bedtime.....

ALemonyPea · 06/02/2017 08:41

Hurray on the non waking baby Owlina.

Creaky, what are you struggling with? We can help.

Feeling very optimistic about my weigh in tomorrow. Finally feel like I'm losing weight. Clothes that fit then beginning of Jan are feeling looser. May even need to buy a belt.

Bought a pair of size 12 jeggings which are my goal to get in to. Won't be trying them on just yet but ma be next week before my op I will.

OwlinaTree · 06/02/2017 08:48

basin yes it really is! Let's hope she keeps it up!

LynsW77 · 06/02/2017 08:58

Groovee Yes I had that a few years back, when I arrived at hospital they decided to surprise me with the other end investigation as well 😳 I had a solution and then was put in a lovely little room with a toilet 😂 I hope you get the results you need from it xx

Groovee · 06/02/2017 11:48

Oh Lyns that would may be lose some extra weight this week.

Have made houmous for tomorrow's taster. Will get some veg to go with it.

I have a nice fungal infection on my tummy 😢.

Have made soup for lunch. Dh went to a Super Bowl party and rolled in at 6.15am doing my head in. Ds is off sick and Dd couldn't get up for school!

Frouby · 06/02/2017 12:23

Morning all.

Brilliant news about the baby Owl. I bet you did the leaping out of bed to check her when you realised it was morning lol.

Glad you are losing again Lemony. Size 12 sounds amazing!

Am just making soup for lunch and we are having hm burgers for tea. Really looking forward to them. Can't remember the last time I had a burger. Got wholemeal rolls for mine so no hifis for me today. Having them with a fuckton of salad and a few sw chips.

TheImprobableGirl · 06/02/2017 12:36

I need to go sw shopping- got group later so desperately trying to absolve yesterday's flexible feast Hmm by exercising like a demon Grin just off out for a run ! Hooray for sleeping babies, and loose clothes. My two are behaving like reincarnations of the devil

OwlinaTree · 06/02/2017 13:15

Thanks frouby and improbable. Yes I did jump out of bed pretty quickly! Dinner sounds nice frouby. We had sw Spicy chicken drumsticks last night with sw chips.

Shopping day today, so have cobbled together a salad from the bits left over in the fridge and had a hm soup from the freezer. Off to meet a friend for a walk now.

Weigh in tomorrow for me, fx I'll have a loss this week as I've stuck to it all week! I've been consciously making sure I drink water etc too and upped my speed. So I really hope something has made a difference!!

DameVanillaSugar · 06/02/2017 16:53

Hello - can someone tell me if the Knorr stockpot stocks have got a syn value? My book says that only gravy granules contain syns but I'd like to check. Thanks!
