Game Of Stones - Slim for my 40th in 2017!

[Honey_bee84]

I know we're allowed unlimited amounts of superfree/free food but I dont see how it would work if you ate loads of pasta and potatoes. I had soup with pasta in it today at lunch, I was hungry again around 3:30 and had some more of the soup then a baked potato with beans for dinner and I feel utterly bloated. Do you think there is a limit when it comes to these things even though they are supposedly unlimited?

I was having the same conversation today with a girl in work that does weight watchers. I lost weight earlier in the year doing juice plus and that's practically a carb free diet. So going from that to me being able to eat all the rice pasta and potatoes I want is a but scary!

See I usually stay away from potatoes and pasta but because I'm allowed them I've had both today. My stomach feels uncomfortable. Think I will have one or the other in the same day rather than both from now on and see if it's better x

I don't feel stuffed, but well satisfied but I have had a lot of carbs today - bread, baked potato, chips...but I guess giving it a go for a week won't hurt, and we'll soon find out!

 

[Honey_bee84]

I don't eat many carbs, I love them though! But because I cut carbs out for a few months they still feel a bit naughty to me ha

 

[KBQueen]

I think that's my thoughts too. I did Slim & Save and carbs were limited, if you went over a certain amount it really affected your losses so I feel a bit naughty eating them now. I put my diary into the LifelineOnline thing and it shows everything as superfree or free with my only syns being my latte and cappuccino so I must be doing ok x

It's only my second day on SW and I'm already 2lbs down. I'm not going to daily weigh, only reason I did is because I was concerned with the amount I ate yesterday and wanted to see if what I was feeling was right. I wasn't I'm glad to say x

Remember to wear the lightest clothes possible Only thing I dont like about a night time meeting is that I'm 2-3lbs heavier than I am in the morning x

 

[Honey_bee84]

I was thinking of wearing something heavy for my first week then something light next week it is that cheating ha

 

[KBQueen]

Haha good thinking, wear 4 jumpers and your loss will be huge x

Had a change to my menu as I realised my steak mince needed to be used up and I also made the kids some choc fudge which I had 2 bits of so my menu for today was -

B - strawberries, apple, banana, blackberries and fat free fromage frais

L - SW homemade minestrone made with pasta, onions, carrots, passata and stock + 2 slices 400g wholemeal bread (Hex B)

D - SW recipe chilli con carne (beef stock, passata, less than 5% fat lean steak mince, onions, peppers and kidney beans with rice)

Syns - 2 pieces choc fudge (6 syns), Tassimo Latte Machiatto Caramel (5.5 syns), 1 tbsp light Clover (3.5 syns) = 15 syns
