Hello!
So I've finally taken the plunge and got back on the Slimming World horse again. Go me! And I have to be honest, I'm actually really excited about it. Not only did I lose really well last time (at my own comfortable pace), but I really loved the food I was eating. Unbelievably enough, so did my husband. Slimming World definitely gets a thumbs up from both of us!
The challenge this time around is that we're no longer living in the UK. In practice, this means that we no longer have access to the same SW friendly ready/easy-made products any more. I guess I'd better mentally prepare myself for more time in the kitchen and a lot more time spent researching - but we'll just have to see how things go. As I say, I'm actually feeling really optimistic.
So here's to a great weight loss ladies and gentlemen, please raise your glasses for all of us!

Yesterday - EE
Brekkie: 2x weetabix, skimmed milk, banana
Lunch: Crappy tuna-salad from company cafe
Dinner: stir-fry with noodles and quorn pieces
HexA: skimmed milk
HexB: 2x weetabix
Snacks: boiled egg and pears
Syns: Not quite sure, but saying 15 to be safe.
To my defence this was day 1 of diet and I'd had no time to shop or prepare!
Today - Green:
Brekkie - Toast with baked beans
Lunch: SW frittata, recipe found on SW website. Simply divine!
Dinner: ...I'm thinking SW pasta bake
HexA: skimmed milk & cheese for pasta bake
Bex B: toast for brekkie
Snacks: banana, mangetout, strawberries
Syns: 6 for pasta bake so far
