Thread 2

Welcome one and all

Thanks for all joining in on last thread

Seeing what others eat really helps me :)

To us all losing weight

@Blondeshavemorefun 2lbs is great! well done!

I've not lost an ounce since weigh in on Monday (I know, I know, wait til weigh in!) so presumably NYE was a real scupper in the works. All the booze!

B - banana, blueberry skyr yoghurt (3 syns! only checked after I'd eaten)
L - smoked mackerel, beetroot, cucumber, tomato, fresh chilli, coriander, lemon juice (2 syn for mackerel)
D - gf pasta with cavolo nero (3 syn for oil)

S - almond milk in coffees (HEA), will probably do pears and chocolate sauce again as it was yummy, might try beating some yoghurt with vanilla essence to have as "cream" with it (1 syn)

Morning welcome to the new people
This is a lovely thread very kind and supportive.

Blondes that's fab I would be well chuffed with only a 2lb gain

Mummy I bet that will fly off it's not a bad gain for that length of time off plan

Mrsclooney that can't be right you're correct you can have up to 15 a day did something have syns in and maybe you didn't realise?

Tiger flavoured bloody skyr does my head in I love it and there is just no need for all the syns in it

B-raspberries, Greek yogurt and raspberry sauce (1)
L-pea and ham soup
D-chubby cubs zesty chicken and noodles

You will see the pea and ham soup a lot as I've made a cauldron full

Today's food. was following sw and got to target but now just trying to eat healthy for those that aren't aware

Breakfast - rice krispies (little box) with skimmed milk and a brew.

Snack - skimmed milk latte at tesco cafe.

Lunch - 2 x poached eggs on 2x small wm toast, 2 cups of peppermint tea.

Snack - special k chocolate cereal bar. (These are really nice! If you've not tried them there on offer in tesco for 99p, theres a red berries flavour too, 108 cals so around 5 - 5.5 syns)

Tea - will be wm pitta pizza with goats cheese, salad, butternut squash chunks crucials bbq sauce.

I will prob have more peppermint tea.

Evening snack - not sure what yet lots of options inc crackers, dips, berries, yogurt, cereal bars, horlicks, biscuits and hot choc. Will prob have something around 200 -250 cals roughly.

Going to do 30-40 mins on my walker and 30 mins hooping shortly. Feeling good (altho I've started taking kalms haha)

Well done blondes!

B toast b ham egg beans toms

L batchelors pasta packet - not sure of syns ? Assume 1 or 2 and lots of extra pepper onions

T jacket tuna cheese a

S crisps 7

@FiveNightsAtMummys that looks like a really great day! well done! 3 proper meals. They all look really well-balanced and tasty and nutritious.

How do you feel about it? How are you feeling after lunch?

I've just had a single square of Lindt chocolate (3 syns) and it did NOT go far :D

I walked into work so doing my normal 1.5 hrs walking today. Will try and go home early so i can walk in the sunshine and do some more work from home.

@FiveNightsAtMummys I was just going to say the same as tiger looks like a really good day I find that if I don't have good healthy meals it all goes wrong so I'm trying to really focus on that too.

Thanks Tiger!! I feel good today, was a bit peckish not long after lunch but the special k bar sorted that out. It's nice to have healthier snacks in rather than all the xmas chocolate. Altho I've noticed the shops has Easter chocolate now! I've just done 50 mins on my walker, plan was 30 but I felt I had more enegry and was watching dr who at the time so just carried on.

Thinking of joining Slimming World on Tuesday, but wondering if I ca do it myself, time and money.

Yesterday - Breakfast - Pack of Go-ahead fruit slices and a chocolate.Lunch - 2 slices of seeded bread with 2 lerjammer light cheese cheese slices, 1 appleDinner - Jacket potato 5 heck chpolatas, encore piri piri sauce, 1 activia creamy yoghurt
Today - 1 chocolate, Go-ahead fruit slices.
Lunch - 1 piece of bread, 1 and a half oat cakes with 2 slices of lerjammer cheese
Dinner - Planning on making the Slimming World Sausage bake.

Waiting for an Iceland order as I type, have ordered lots of Slimming World meala, Alpen lights, got some Muller Lights free.
Aware that not all of the food I have eaten is plan friendly. Also know you are supposed to eat loads of fruit and veg but tbh too much expects my stomach, so just having some.
TBH nangy and hungry right now, might have a yoghurt shortly.

Welcome @octopus37

I've always wondered whether you could just do any 2 slices of bread per day rather than the sw recommended ones! Maybe try and see how you get on? I do find the discipline good (when I follow it!)

I also can't eat much fruit or veg. After my dinner last night my stomach complained all throughout the night- way too much fibre! All those Brussels! Need to go back to baked potatoes I think. I try and eat more of low fibre fruit and veg so I'll peel my pears tonight for my snack.

I am also hangry so going to have some Muller light with some blueberries, and 30g of peanuts as my HEB for the day.

I'm glad to hear it @fivenightsatmummys keep up the good work!

Evening

B: melon, grapes and yogurt
L: poached eggs on toast and an orange
D: carbonara and a yogurt

I’ve had about 10 syns worth of snacks. Planning on having a Highlights hot chocolate and another orange later.

It’s great seeing what other people are having!

Ok guys I have lunch out at Pizza Express and then the cinema. These are the things that usually wreck my weightloss. Going with a group and we're getting 2 or 3 courses

B - yoghurt and fruit
L - superfood or nicoise salad (8 even without dressing) or the tomato pasta (6) maybe an affogato after (ice cream 7). Will give my dough balls to others (20 syns!!!)
D - pastabake

S - will take some fruit to snack on in the cinema. Or nothing at all!

It'll be worth not having the doughballs, right? Or any wine? Don't mind skipping pizza as it is so synheavy

I always find pizza express tricky, I really like their pizza and seem to lose all will power when I walk through the door!

I tried some new cracker things today they were ok 18 cals so 1 syn each they don't taste of much but when you fill them (they are bowl shaped) quite nice

This was lunch more soup! With a ham tomato and pickled onion and chicken a avocado(1) and cucumber cracker.

God that soup looks gross

Tiger have a look on their website theres nutritional information. I'd personal pick something around normal cals for a meal 500-600 ish. Then maybe sorbet for dessert as that looks low? Or if theres something you really want then have that and get straight back on it for the next meal. Can you use your heb for cinema? I use to take dried fruit mixed with grapes and a can of zero fizzy pop or skinny latte.

I can’t see the pic of soup :(
I don’t see pics at the moment :(

@TigerJoy that seems high for salad and chicken /salmons. Make sure they cook with no oil and should be free with no dressing

B toast b butter 2 marmite apple

I've did 30 mins on Walker and 30 mins hooping this morning and another 20 mins on walker this evening. Had about 4 cups of peppermint tea.

@blondeshavemorefun you look lovely as you are, congrats on getting the prelims done. This is a marathon not a sprint.

I ate all the right things and even bought blueberries to take into the cinema which were actually really satisfying. Loved the smell of popcorn around me. Loved the smell of pizza but didn't feel cheated by my meal. Had mozzarella and tomato salad to start then superfood with chicken, affogato as mentioned before. Couldn't eat it all but it was tasty.

I did drink wine which I shoudlnt have but eff it. No chance I could be preggers this month anyway. Had a brilliant time. Home now for pastabake and herbal tea and a doggy cuddle

Brunch - bacon, quorn sausages, scrambled eggs, baked beans and 2 slices of kingsmill crustless wholemeal toast (heB)

Snack - banana

Tea - gammon, potato wedges, pineapple and mixed veg

Syns- 2 glasses of Prosecco

Aww thanks @TigerJoy

Really need to ideally shift another stone before wedding

I’m a slow tortoise

But having an Indian tonight didn’t help

Also had a horlicks and some flatbread with dip tonight, feel that's better!
