Thread 3

Welcome one and all

Thanks for all joining in on last thread And hello to anyone new

Seeing what others eat really helps me plus gives us all ideas

I seem to stick to same thing

To us all losing weight

Morning all. Just got off the phone from a fairly taxing call with my union rep but managed to resist hitting the chocolate yet.
Going out tonight to celebrate my son's birthday so saving all my syns for that. Its italian so there should hopefully be something pasta based that isn't too bad. Apart from fish and chips last weekend its the first meal I haven't cooked myself since lockdown so I am very much looking forward to it - though it feels a bit weird to be going in a restaurant! Any suggestions on what my best options would be? I'm normally a pizza person so don't usually take much notice of the pasta menu.

@MrsAvocet ooh yummy! If you're being good I would have thought a pasta with a tomato based sauce couldn't be too bad, or maybe even carbonara since it's basically eggs and parmesan, could use your healthy extra A tbh I would cave and go for the pizza but my willpower is a tragedy lol

my plans have changed, had 30g reduced fat cheddar in my pitta instead of the halloumi which left a bit of a HEA left so I'm currently sipping away on an iced coffee using milk for the rest of my allowance.

tea has also changed, it's a glorious day here which is quite unheard of for my corner of scotland so am now having a burger off the bbq with chips, some cheese and fried onions! calling it 4 syns on the burger since it's from the butcher and obv HEA for the cheese

Anything tomato baSed rbh

You can ask if they can make without oil as well

B toast b egg back beans

L ham salad And mayo

T meatballs .5 pasta and tom and veg sauce cheese a

S crisps 5 bar 5 syns 11

Hoping for a loss tomorow tho that’s my gain from sneaky weight in

morning all!

i forgot i wasn't weighing in july 😂 so i'm down 5lbs over the last 2 weeks, but i had a gain before that so really only 2lbs lost which i'm pleased with!

L - same soup as yesterday with an egg mayo roll (HEB and 1 syn)

T - chicken coated in doritos (1.5 syns) with SW chips and mayflower gravy (3.5 syns)

T - fruit and maybe a treat of some crisps seeing it's friday!

Have a good day everyone, happy friday! 🥳

Well done @JingleAndTonic

I lost 2lbs

But was my gain From my sneaky wi after weekend

So back to sts if that makes

B ommlette peppers onion ham beans

L bread b ham mayo 1 salad

T chicken stir fry

@Blondeshavemorefun well done on losing that 2lbs though! much better than a gain 😁

Yes tho if I Havnt I’d weighed Early I wouldn’t Have known the gain

So would be sts

Today another bbq. Mainly meat and salad and jacket

Well done on losses all!

Going slow for me I'm on and off. But I'm sticking to it where I can - so that's something.

DD at her dads tonight, so just cooking me. I'm sick of salmon!

Anyone got any quick but tasty meal ideas? Nipping you're supermarket in a bit so open to all suggestions!

I eat pretty much everything.

Gone a bit off piste the last couple of days with lunch out on Friday and dinner out last night 😳 fridays lunch was very sensible but last night involved pizza, chips and the most amazing sticky toffee pudding with salted caramel sauce and clotted cream icecream 😋😋 usually weigh on a Sunday but as I knew last night would be hideous i weighed yesterday instead 😂 1/2 a pound off. I can live with that considering I haven’t been saintly.

Today looks like this:

B - costa skinny latte (HEA) and banana
L - another latte at home (HEA) plus poached eggs on toast (HEB)
D - chicken, bacon and mushroom pie topped with a sheet of filo pastry (4 syns) and tenderstem broccoli
S - fruit, Greek yog and a Cadbury’s little bar (5syns)

Feel so bloated after eating so much last night - it was very rich and stodgy and whilst All it tasted lovely my system had clearly adapted to the slimming world way and it was a shock to my system I think. Not even remotely hungry today and feel massive (my tummy looks huge!) clearly a lesson to be learned there!

god i was so bad yesterday 

for lunch i had a cheese sandwich, a chicken lunchable and a sausage roll then tea was a BBQ which was fine, i had a burger in a roll, some piri piri chicken and pasta salad all of which was ok but i then proceeded to wash it all down with several proseccos, two bottles of wine and then i finished my night by doing shots of disaronno and cointreau 

needless to say i felt like utter shit all morning so my day today looks like..

B - half a slice of toast with peanut butter (2syns ish and i guess HEB) i also had to drink some milk because i had horrific heartburn after those shots (HEA)

L - sleep

T - i really fancy an indian now i'm starting to feel more human so i'll have a chicken dhansak (10.5 syns) with plain rice and a poppadom (2 syns) and if someone else orders a nan bread and a corner of it falls onto my plate then so be it 

@autumnredhead sorry i'm a bit late to your question but often if i'm cooking for just me i like to do fakeaway type things, wrap pizzas, chicken pittas with piri piri sauce, egg fried rice and curry sauce, all really easy to make single portions of! a favourite of mine is also fajita chicken with chips, most of the jars of fajita seasoning are syn free and easier to do a single portion with compared to the sachets

@Hartleyhare1206 well done on your loss! your food sounds absolutely delicious, especially the sticky toffee pud - yum

i'm also spending the rest of the day exclusively drinking irn bru, the king of hangover cures

Oh @JingleAndTonic 😂😂😂

Yummy bw yesterday. Was fairly good

Today it’s my birthday

So started off good. Then having takeaway and baileys

Will be back to being good tom to Thur qbs prob sts the again 😂😂

aw happy birthday @Blondeshavemorefun!! hope you're having a wonderful day 🥳

Many happy returns @Blondeshavemorefun! 🥳🎂

Many happy returns Blondeshavemorefun. Hope you had a great day.
I haven't dared even think about what I've eaten today as I've been out all day with family that I haven't seen all year.. Had an egg mayo sandwich for lunch, then an icecream. We ate out for dinner too. I had fish, chips and peas but I took the batter off the fish and only ate a few of the chips so I hope I've not had way too much.
In my defence, we walked quite a few miles over the course of the day so I will have burned a few hundred calories extra too. I will eat a lot more fruit and veg tomorrow as I actually feel a bit yucky after not eating my usual amount of healthy stuff today. Which I guess is good as I very rarely hit 5 a day before starting SW and I do most days now.
Hope everyone has had a good weekend.

Happy birthday for yesterday blondes hope you had a fab day and enjoyed your baileys.
Oh no jingle hangovers are a killer I literally eat the fridge! I hope you're feeling better.
MrsA it's so nice to see family again isn't it? We our parents over for Sunday lunch yesterday it was lovely.
Sticky time at the moment with me and Mrtroppi not really sure what's going to happen but desperately trying not face plant into chocolate and wine

Think I'm going to do lots of cooking today so I've got some meals prepped for when I'm not feeling motivated.

Hope everyone has a good day

thankfully my hangover has left the building so i can get right back on it and hope for a maintain this week! hoping for a loss after all i drank would be an absolute cheek 😂

Hi vix that doesn't sound loads at all...
I don't tend to eat breakfast but only because I'm usually not a morning eater. Sometimes I make brunch around 11 if I'm hungry like yesterday and then I will just have some fruit or yogurt or whatever between that and dinner.
But if I'm hungry I definitely eat!!
I don't use syns for the sake of it though if I don't need them I don't use them it all calories at the end of the day I'm not going to eat a kitkat just because sw says I can.
If I need it I will if not I won't.

B- fruit and yogurt (I was hungry this morn!)
L-baked potato chilli and salad
D- chicken stir fry

Agree doesn’t sound loads

I don’t always put fruit as a snack but I eat usually an apple grapes pear eveey day

B toast b ham egg beans

L ham pasta veg bake cheese a

T sausages 3 either sw p mash or a pot chips abs beans

S crisps 5 bar 5 total 13
