Today is going to be a hungry day. I only had breakfast 40 minutes ago and I'm already looking forward to lunch!

Might have a biscuit for 5 syns.

I love the Trafford centre... if only it wasn't four hours drive. We're going there in July!

Got my surgery date for the 14th of July! 😱 get home on the Sunday, in on the Friday!

I was away from SW for a few weeks..

But planning on getting back to it..

I need a good chicken recipe.. anyone got anything easy and tasty?

latedecember1963 · 08/06/2017 16:03

Em, just realised your name got autocorrected to Elm this morning. Apologies!
Sham, I'm about 40 mins drive from the TC so close enough to be feasible but not too close for frequent temptation.
Found sandals, sun glasses, a packable hat and a strappy sundress so that's me sorted. It was so nice to feel as though I had more choices. I hadn't realised how down I've been on myself over the last few years when clothes shopping had become a case of finding something I felt least bad in as opposed to something I felt good in.
Well done, Groovester, as Craig Revel Hallwood would say, fab-U-lous!

Groovee · 08/06/2017 16:15

@Zed1707 speedy chicken Jambalaya is tasty and easy. Cajun chicken pasta is good or I make chicken fajitas with Schwartz Fajita spice and have rice and veggies with it.

Groovee · 08/06/2017 16:16

I've set up a SW Instagram if anyone wants to follow. Grooveeslimmingjourney is the user name.

Groovee · 08/06/2017 16:18

Doing a beef stirfry tonight. Is there anything I could add to spice it up a bit?

LavenderRainbows · 08/06/2017 16:30

Ok I've just eaten 3 pieces of sushi!! Is sushi even allowed?? Presumable not so have I just blasted a whole week of syns in one 5 min indulgence??!!

OwlinaTree · 08/06/2017 19:45

Sushi is pretty low syn, you'll be fine.

Well done losers, and great news on 5 stone, wow!!

ALemonyPea · 08/06/2017 19:45

Well done Groovster.

Sushi is allowed, and very low in syns, depending on what you have. Varies between 0.5-1.5 syns a piece.

Thanks everyone. Before and after pics. Me and the husband. He's never gone to class or weighed himself so no idea of his loss.

Dinner was a bit of a mish mash of whatever was left over. Lamb curry and spag Bol mixed together (weird but tasted ok) with roasted peppers and onions and rice.

Dying for something sweet but really want to see a pound off this week and I've got a friend coming on Saturday so want to save syns for a couple of drinks.

2lb to target and 2 weigh ins before holiday Shock
