Starting the 2019 support thread for those on SW or those thinking of starting.

Let's introduce ourselves. I'm Groovee. In 2016 I was told to lose weight so I could have Gynae surgery. I joined SW in Jan 2017. Have lost 4.5st on SW 5.5st since 2016. Have been at target for 9 months now. Long may it continue being at target and staying there.

Have my new members pack and look forward to the challenges of 2019. I need to look for some new recipes.

Well I've had lunch and I thought they rolls were nice not quite "proper bread" but still good.
The ciabatta are nicer but a lot smaller
Here's a pic so you can see how big they are!

I really enjoyed it, was very bread like and filling.

These are the rolls Groovee. You can also use the white ones as a B choice

Yes I had the white looks darker in the picture as I toasted it.
They are on offer in Sainsbury's £1.30 for three.
I felt like I had a "normal" lunch.

ALemonyPea · 22/02/2019 14:15

Me too. Had a pear and some popcorn as well.

OwlinaTree · 22/02/2019 17:53

Those rolls look massive!

Groovee · 22/02/2019 21:07

Good one Greece!

Pub meal tonight, prawn cocktail, gammon and chips, 4 gin and slimline. Nom nom. Only 1 syn prior to that lot today, so I'm hoping not too much damage!

FiveNightsAtMummys · 24/02/2019 11:46

Well done stranger things!!! I think I have a similar target to you. I've lost 2stone9.5 so far I have 1 stone 5.5 to target (so total loss would be 4 stone 1)

OwlinaTree · 24/02/2019 23:13

lemony I had one of those Tesco toffee meringues today. So lush!

ALemonyPea · 25/02/2019 09:55

Glad you enjoyed it. I had one yesterday, and have the other one for today mmmmm

OwlinaTree · 25/02/2019 12:49

Lol same here!

shecamefromgreece · 25/02/2019 15:06

Well done strangerSmile
I think I may need to investigate these toffee things you speak of!!
My weekend was ish it was my mums bday and grandsons bday so it was always going to be tricky. This sunshine is making me realise I need to get my arse in gear and lose some weight before dds communion in may our holiday a couple of weeks later.
Good day today so far.
Hope everyone is enjoying this lovely weather Smile

MamaFlintstone · 25/02/2019 15:11

Hello, I would love to join you all! I’ve been back at SW (for the umpteenth time) since January 5th and I’m down 1 stone 11 so far. I feel like this might finally be my year, I’m more motivated than I’ve ever been with it before. I haven’t set a firm target but it’ll be around the 6 stone mark Blush so I’ve got a very long way still to go.

Those rolls look great, even if they taste grim I’m sure I could trick myself into believing that I’m having a proper sandwich Grin

Groovee · 25/02/2019 16:45

Welcome and well done @MamaFlintstone

@shecamefromgreece I asked Ds to pop to the shop for soy sauce last week. He refused so I had to go to Tesco and walked past the cabinets with them in so bought them as I felt I deserved them. I was nice though and gave one to dh.
