Thanks ^_^

I didn't really cook anything before I started slimming world - I've had to plan thing a little bit better but I've really enjoyed making my own meals from scratch. Can't believe I avoid SW for so long because I thought I would have to eat things that I don't like e.g. brocolli, cabbage and cauliflower! seems daft now!

Sunday:

breakfast: coffee with semi skimmed milk (HexA) and 1/2 tsp sugar (1/2 syn)

Lunch: weird omlette type thing - 2 eggs (F) spinach (SF) mushrooms (SF) and ham (F) in fry light

Dinner: homemade leek (SF) and and potato (F) soup made with veggie stock (F) and fat free fromage frais (F)

snacks: I shall have a frozen curly wurly later (6)

total for day: 6.5

Yeah I were the same! I lost 2.5 stone on sw but I couldn't control my portions that well so I'm on ww now and if my weight comes to a standstill ill try sw again x

I'm having to keep a close eye on my portions, but so far so good - don't think i could do WW, I lost 2.5 stone calorie counting but got bored after 6 months and think I'd be the same on WW having to count everything again - at least on SW the majority of what I eat doesn't need counting
