Slimming World Support #8 2017

[Groovee]

New thread 😘

Also, I havent been weighing myself since I just came on and want to make sure I'm getting things right first before jumping on the scale expectantly haha

Hi! Sorry! One more thing, I found the recipe - I've attached for anyone else. 😊

Happy birthday Owlina! Enjoy

McDonald’s was the only food option available for lunch 😱🙈 AND they had NO SALADS 😱😱 I had to think on the spot, sacrificing 17 syns on a grilled chilli chicken wrap. Not horrendous. When it arrived it was the crispy one, 😭😭😭😭 23.5 syns. Didn’t have time to send it back. Low syn Friday coming my way 😂😂

2lb off and slimmer of the week for me :) having pizza tonight due to busy day going on, but 100%back on plan for tomorrow morning and the rest of the week.

Well done &Rhinogirl.
@Jojo2217 that's a different recipe to the one in this months mag but pretty similar I'm at work at moment but will post it when I get home later tonight if you want?

This is the one from this month’s mag. Was just looking at it 😂.

Loving the new comfort collection book as it has slow cook recipes in it x

I've bought a piece of pork to make my first-ever slimming world pulled pork tomorrow. I feel like it's a rite of passage.

Slimming world lasagne with salad and a 4.5 syn piece of cheesy garlic bread pizza

I have just had toad in the hole with Asda Lean sausages, so I am counting 5 syns for the plateful. It was yum!!

2nd on plan day since weigh on. I am determined to really be 100% on plan all this week and get off that last bit of holiday gain.

Happy Birthday Owl. Enjoy the celebrations! What I like about SW is that I find it far easier to jump back into it once I have fallen off the wagon - and you certainly have a good reason to indulge this week.

Well done rhino and happy birthday owl! All good here - sausage and mash with lots of speedy veg, and the sausages were the syn free Linda McCartney veggie/rosemary ones so I've managed to finish up my day on a big fat zero thanks to milk in the mash counting as HexA

I'm already a bit scared about Saturday - having an afternoon out with my lovely girlfriends which would usually involve a lot of wine and dinner at the pub i.e. grazing over a bowl of chips every other hour. Going to have to be very motivated, but trying to mitigate the damage in advance with a few zero syn days...

Thanks all. Great meal last night with lovely wine. Unfortunately baby still up at the crack of dawn!

@NightOfTheDeadXmasFairy I feel your pain as had carefully planned my selection for a meal out at pizza express, only to find the dc were shattered after a day out and ended up back at home having Dominoes & a bottle of wine . No point in even trying to syn just drawing a line under it and going super speed for the next 48 hours (until another meal out Saturday night ). Hoping to go for a run today in an attempt to counter some of the calories as I'm procrastinating about training for a half marathon.

Anyone have any recipes they've tried for a SW-fairly-friendly birthday cake? Mine is coming up and I will want cake! I was wondering about fairy cakes so there isn't a WHOLE CAKE sitting in the house afterwards and I could freeze some, but thought I would ask you lot if you had better ideas? Please??

I blitz up 40g of oats, add 90g of yoghurt, 1 egg and some options hot chocolate at 1.5/2 syns. Then mix together and bake for 30 minutes.

I made banana muffins the other day which came out at 6.5 syns each,

My daughter’s birthday cake this year was 14 syns a slice.

Another day on plan just need to make it through the weekend to weigh In
Dinners cooking now Spanish chicken and rice from the mag.

Menu today not all super speed as a planned but avoided using all bar 1 syn and pretty good overall:

B: Scrambled egg with grilled mushrooms & cherry tomatoes (1/2 HEB)
L: streamed asparagus with smoked salmon salad plus banana
D: 1 syn tandoori chicken with veg & rice (4 tblspn Pataks tandoori spice marinade & fat free yogurt, lean chicken & roasted veg) really simple just marinade the man got before it served 4 and the whole family LOVED it and there's still half a jar leftover to make another one
Snacks: Alpen Bar (1/2 HEB) Diet Coke, Apple, satsuma and some grapes. Might have a fat free yogurt later if I'm peckish.

In 52 sleeps... I turn 40! So trying hard in November to hit that 4 stone award so I can celebrate in December!

Down a bottle of wine.. oops!

Ok I rescued it - but no more syns for the week. Sob..

I think I’ve had a NSV... I realised last night that you can see my collar bone! It’s so very odd!

Can I join please?

Been on sw for 2.5 years, stopped going to group in Sept and now trying to do it on my own

Keep strong scribble!!!

Wow groovee, it’s things like that that keep us going!!!

Welcome fraggle!!

How far from 4 stone are you groovee?! That’s amazing!!!!

Thanks, I’m hoping this will keep me on track!

Today’s going well so far, only syns are semi skimmed milk (saving A for cheese tonight)
