I've been mega busy so this is just a quick update on this week so far. Monday I cheated, not horrendously, but I just wasn't in a good mindset to diet. Back on it yesterday though: Breakfast: Strawberry diet shake Lunch: Tesco BBQ Pulled Pork on a wholemeal roll (HEXB) with light mayo (2syns)...

Hi all! I've been terrible at updating my diary just lately... I'm just so busy! And I completely forgot to give you the results of yesterday's weigh in... 1.5lb off! That is over 2 weeks so not fantastic but still a loss. I'm feeling determined now though. I go on holiday 10 weeks from today...

Another good day yesterday, and I had plenty of opportunities throughout the day to cheat and I was very strong so I'm feeling really confident at the moment. The same happened today! Yesterday's food: Breakfast: 1 800g wm slice of toast (HEXB) with a thin layer of nutella (4 syns) and some...

Here is today's food - I've been very good! Breakfast: 1 wm 800g slice of toast (HEXB) with a thin layer of nutella (4 syns) Lunch: Jacket potato with mozzarella cheese (HEXA) and beans, then a big fruit salad (strawberries, banana, apple, satsuma, red grapes and kiwi) Tea: Pasta bolognese...

Arrggghhh I'm back after having NO internet access whatsoever!! Nightmare... And I forgot to weigh myself yesterday! Not having a good week haha! I decided rather than weigh myself this morning that I would weigh myself next Saturday as normal, so I've got 2 weeks of weight loss to look forward...

Hi all :) Had a fab bank holiday weekend but happy to get back to work :D sad I know! I haven't been super strict today because I'm trying to ease myself back into things, so here goes: Breakfast: 1 slice of wm toast with a thin layer of nutella Lunch: 2 small Bannister's Farm cheese and...

Morning Kay - I'm back! Just having a catch up... I haven't managed to read through everything that I've missed because I would be here FOREVER (it's been 3 weeks!) but I've just had a quick look over the last few pages... Don't beat yourself up about your binge. I've had a 3 week binge so that...

After 3 weeks off plan I've only gained 2.25lbs which I'm super happy with! I expected about half a stone so I'm on cloud 9 today! Back on plan from next week and I'm determined to get into the 10s!

I'M BAAAAAAACKKKKK!!! Wow I haven't posted for 3 weeks! I've neglected my mins and for that I apologise :( I hope you're all well, I will try my best to post on all of your threads today, but I doubt I'll be able to read through them all as I've missed so much and I know how often you all post...

I think the next couple of weeks are going to be an absolute nightmare! I'm here until Thursday afternoon/evening (hopefully I'll be leaving as early as possible as it's my dad's birthday and I don't want to miss too much of it!) then I'm going to Llandudno with James on Friday for the weekend...

Well I am writing this to you from the Holiday Inn Express Newport lounge! I arrived about half an hour ago after an uncomfortable 2 hour train journey :( I didn't think I was getting here until tomorrow so I haven't really come prepared food wise. I had a weight watchers chicken salad sandwich...

That's very true, so it's not all bad! :)

Yes I had those the other day they were lovely! I'll be stocking up :)

Well I've gained a measly 0.25lb! Nothing a visit from the pf wouldn't fix hehe, so I'm happy with that, I expected a huge gain so I'm happy :) It definitely makes a difference when I don't go to the gym. For some people it doesn't matter but for me I don't think I can lose the weight without...

Thanks for the words of encouragement, Bev! I know I'm being daft, I just hate the fact that I made a big thing about sticking to 'clean' food and now I'm going back on it. Oh well, needs must! Not enough hours in the day are there! xx

Omg what a plonker I am! Yes that was supposed to say first, not worst hahaha duhhhh...

Hi all! Finished my worst week at my new job and it's been a fab week! Finished late tonight but it was to be expected :) Weigh in tomorrow, however I'm not expecting a loss. Although been fairly well behaved this week, except for skipping breakfast, I've only been to the gym twice, and I'm not...

Woohooo well done! I'm so pleased for you :wee: xx

Just seen the comparison pics, Bev - what a transformation! You look fantastic! :D I was having a conversation with a friend who has lost weight the other day and we said the same as you - as we lose more weight, we are more critical of our bodies and notice all the little flaws so much more...

Hi Niamh, how are you? I've been MIA on and off for a while so have some catching up to do. How did you get on at WI? xx

Hi Cookie! I've not been around much recently so I have some reading to do, but good luck for weigh in tomorrow! xx

Arrgghhh sorry I've been away AGAIN. Yesterday's diary: Breakfast: Skipped as I was running late :sigh: Lunch: Small portion of peanut curry and basmati rice Tea: Small bowl of homemade bolognese, then later treated myself to chopped up strawberries with a small scoop of Mackie's vanilla ice...

Hi Bev - just catching up as I've not been on here for a few days. Congrats on your fab loss! Fantastic reward for having to wait 2 weeks to find out :) I think 1 on/1 off for the gym is a great idea if you're aching. Hey, at least it means it's working!! Hope you're enjoying it :) xx

Hi Cookie - I've been MIA for a few days so just catching up. Congrats on your fantastic loss! :party0011: I bet you were over the moon :D I hope you've enjoyed your spa break - a well deserved reward :) xx

I have some major catching up to do!! Here is yesterday's food first of all: Breakfast: Skipped as I was hungover so got up late and went out not long after I got up... Lunch: Ham and light mayo sandwich on white bread Tea: Aldi lamb shank with fry light roasties, brocolli and carrot and swede...

I'm probably going to do the peanut curry I made a few weeks ago, it was gorgeous! And campfire stew sounds lovely too so I may make that. I'll come up with different things for each week so I don't get bored :)

Morning all! Sorry I've not been on here much I've had a busy week. I'll catch up with everyone's diaries a bit later hopefully! Well I've gained 0.75lb this week, which is fine. I expected a gain after my indulgences this week! Last night I went out for tea again!! Here's yesterday's food...

0.75lb gain which I expected so I'm happy with that :)

P.S. I did take the dog out for a quick walk last night to make up for missing my body tone class so it's not all bad :)

Hi Kay & Kathryn! Had a better day than expected... After the 3 celebrations chocolates this morning I didn't have anymore, and my boss bought cakes and I didn't touch them :) so I was very well behaved! I had a Co-op chicken, bacon and sweetcorn pasta box for lunch, and my OH has treated me to...

Hi Jennie! Thanks for subbing :D I hope you enjoy my ramblings :) xx

Cookie - Yes I've not tried those ones before so I'll let you know... The similar ones I've had before were nice so fingers crossed! The cereal - the fruit tasted really strange and it was so sour! I found myself eating around the fruit so there's no point eating it if I'm wasting it! I'm...

Yesterday's food: Breakfast: Made a bowl of Benefit cereal but I've decided I really didn't like it so I only had about 3 mouthfuls :yuk: Lunch: Ham and light mayo sandwich on wm bread, and a vanilla & chocolate Muller light Tea: Steak (cooked with chilli and garlic salt :p) with air fried...

Mine came on Saturday and I was so happy I got pistachios, they are a new found love! :D I got harissa olives but I wasn't keen so Dad was happy to get rid of those for me :) I've got oatcakes with onion chutney and some sort of mixture of cashews, mini breadsticks and something else (can't...

Kay that is bloody fantastic!! Well done I really am so pleased for you! :party0011: Wow I can imagine how over the moon you are today and rightly so :D might try the soup challenge myself next week seeing as I'll have proper kitchen facilities! :D Danielle xx

Yesterday's food: Breakfast: Bowl of Aldi Benefit cereal with ss milk, then another box of Graze pistachios :p Lunch: Ham, cucumber and light mayo sandwich on wm bread, and a banana, then a small handful of cashews mid afternoon Tea: Aldi lamb shank, fry light roasties, broccoli, cauliflower...

I have these in my freezer I completely forgot about them! I've got the forest fruits pack so I'll try those soon :) Thanks Kay! xx

Morning Kay! Sorry I've not had chance to reply to you on my diary but just wanted to wish you good luck for WI today, I reckon you'll get a super loss :D Danielle xx

I wish you could all see me trying to eat a banana - what a sight! I really don't like a lot of fruits, I much prefer veggies and lots of them! But I'm trying my best to eat more fruit. I think I'm allergic to raw fruit and vegetable 'skin', the worst being peppers, cucumber and apples...

I cannot WAIT to start my new job next week! The job I'm doing now is so mind-numbingly boring that I am constantly thinking about food and thinking that I'm hungry when I'm not! And I know I don't need food, because I cope perfectly well at the weekend without eating loads, I can even skip...

2.25lbs off woop!

2.25lbs off for meeeee! Woop woop!

I second what the girls have said above - don't be so hard on yourself. I know that you know you can do it :) I also agree that all 3 bunnies are super cute hehe :) xx

Oops sorry Bev! Hehe... Today's food: Breakfast: 2 SW ham and egg muffins Mid morning: 1 chocolate hobnob Lunch: Club sandwich with light mayo on brown bread (with butter - forgot to ask for it without grrrr) with a bottle of pure apple juice and a glass of milk mid afternoon Tea: Lamb steak...

Oops sorry Bev! Hehe... Today's food: Breakfast: 2 SW ham and egg muffins Mid morning: 1 chocolate hobnob Lunch: Club sandwich with light mayo on brown bread (with butter - forgot to ask for it without grrrr) and a bottle of pure apple juice, then a glass of semi skimmed milk mid afternoon...

Ugh that's rubbish!!! x

Both of my Aldi's have been out of stock of the benefit bars for months now it's ridiculous! And I keep looking for the coconut yoghurts because I love coconut, but no luck as yet. I haven't seen the cassava crisps so I'll keep my eye out when I go :) xx

Yes dense that's it! Ooh I love apple I'll definitely try that! My OH drinks hot Ribena or hot Vimto when he's got a cold and I think it's vile :eek: I'm doing the big shop either tomorrow or Saturday so I'll see what Aldi have got in stock - all I can do is try different ones and eliminate the...

Eugh no I don't like that at all! It tastes like perfume! Perhaps I need something with a bit of a 'thicker' flavour, for want of a better word. I'm not sure how to describe, but I mean something like cinnamon, or I could try the vanilla. Can someone help me out because 'thicker' is not the...

Kay I've just found 2 boxes of Twinings in the cupboard at work! I've just made myself a cranberry and raspberry tea, just waiting for it to infuse :D it smells like one of those old fashioned sweet shops it's lovely! Hope it tastes nice! The other is blackcurrant and vanilla but I'm not really...

I would like to try some of the fruity ones seeing as they are good for you, and I'm trying to drink more natural drinks and cut out anything too processed so they should be ideal. I'll be giving them a go at some point so I'll let you know how I get on :)

Hehe, my Alfie is so funny because he does a lot with his paws (or his hands as I always call them by mistake, the amount he does with them!). He moves cushions and blankets round to get comfy; he grabs hold of his toys with his paws to get it at a good angle for chewing or licking; he holds...

Well yesterday went really well, today has not been as great so far. I had a chocolate hobnob earlier :copon: and I went out to get a sandwich and ended up with a club sandwich with light mayo on a brown roll (not exactly wholemeal but still better than white) and I forgot to ask for it without...

Omg what a cutie :doggy: Well I'm at work at the moment, so I imagine Alfie is at home on Mum & Dad's bed. He will have pulled Mum's pillow forward to make a little nest and buried himself behind it to keep warm and snuggly as he does every day :) You can guarantee that we'll come home and the...

P.S. Forgot to add to yesterday's diary that I went to bodytone class too :) my back is very sore today though so I'm not sure what I did!

Yes loads, I'm trying my best to forget about them :giggle: I'm fine thank you - how are you feeling now? x

I've just eaten a chocolate hobnob, and in the words of Icona Pop... I DON'T CARE!! I LOVE IT!!

Wow I've just realised that yesterday, excluding the chilli con carne, I ate no syns and had my HEXB (pistachios). Just remembered I had a slice of cheese with a miniscule amount of mustard on it when I got home from work as Dad was raiding the fridge and I didn't want to feel left out (this is...

Kay your soup looks absolutely scrummy! I'm the same as Bev, I've never been a big fan of soup unless I've got loads of thick, crusty bread and butter :p but yours looks divine! I'm better with chunky soups I think. I'm going to start making some soon to take to work with me xx

Yes he makes a great housewife hehe, to be fair, I may as well have cooked it myself the amount of silly questions he asked me! It was yummy though :)

OMG James is obsessed! It's beyond ridiculous! :banghead:

Haha at least I wasn't alone!

Oh no poor thing! :( yay I'm glad they turned out nice! Today I've had: Breakfast: 2 SW ham and egg muffins Mid morning: Box of BBQ pistachios (yummy!!!) Lunch: Jacket potato with chilli con carne (I wanted a nice sandwich but forgot to bring my light mayo to work and didn't want a dry...

Hi sweetie, I'm fab how are you? xx

:bliss:

Forgot to update my food yesterday - Breakfast: 2 SW ham and egg muffins (more like one though - I forgot to Frylight the muffin cases and most of the muffin stuck!) Lunch: Ham, cheese and pickle sandwich on small wholemeal, 2 Shape 0% fat yoghurts, another muffin and a bag of Walkers Sunbites...

Morning Cookie! Found a box of bbq pistachios out of a previous Graze box in my cupboard so I'm going to have a nibble on those throughout the morning :) xx

Okay, after a brief discussion on BCP's thread, I have decided to try out a new healthy eating plan, or a 'clean' eating plan if you will. I want to try to use all of the tips and tricks I've picked up from SW over the last year, but also incorporate different foods and drinks into the plan...

Yayyyy fantastic Kay well done! I'm dead pleased for you :party0011: Just remember, we're going to smash it this year! Your next goals will be a walk in the park ;) xx

Smoked ham, cheese and Branston pickle sandwich, a SW ham and egg muffin, 2 Shape 0% yoghurts and a bag of Walkers Sunbites - feast!

Morning Bev, just having a catch up. What a lovely picture! It's great to look back at pictures and see changes in yourself that you hadn't even realised were there! Please don't worry about your takeaway - just remember you've got the rest of the week for damage limitation. Also remember that...

Kay, you're going to make yourself ill stressing like this! Keep all of the fantastic advice and kind words people have given you in your mind and try to relax. I'm sure if you were more calm it would have a more positive effect on your body. If you try to tell yourself that and take deep...

Hiiii, sorry I was MIA yesterday - busy day! Breakfast: 1 Alpen light bar (HEXB) Lunch: Jacket potato with tuna mayo (2 syns), lettuce, cucumber, onion, beetroot, sweetcorn and egg with a drizzle of mayo (1 syn), then a bag of Walkers Sunbites (6 syns) Tea: Steak and sweet potato wedges (2 syns...

Ooh sounds yummy! The popcorns are really good because you get quite a lot - I shared mine with a friend watching a film :) it would be so easy to eat the whole lot yourself though :p I don't think I've tried any of the others that you've got though so let me know what they're like :D xx

Hi Cookie, I'm fab how are you?? Ooh how exciting which ones have you got? I think most of them are okay on syns - 4-6 syns ish. I haven't checked them all so I'm not sure. I've started having one twice a month rather than every week, purely to save some pennies. My fave is the chocolate...

Well done hun! Like you said, you never know what result you'll get when you're swapping scales, so I'm really pleased you got a loss! xxx

Yayyyyyy! God knows how I've lost that much but I'm certainly not complaining! Yep I'm going to treat myself today - I'm going to the cinema tonight I think so I'm going to enjoy treats of the chocolate variety :D Super chuffed :D

:bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance: 3.25lbs off woohooooooo!!

:bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance: 3.25lbs OFF!!!! YIPPPEEEEEEE!!!!!

Thank you Cookie! Got my fingers crossed for a sts at least (after my weekend binge) xxx

Today's food is as follows: Breakfast: 1 Alpen light bar (HEXB) Lunch: Chicken and mushroom Pasta 'n' Sauce with milk as HEXA and Flora light (0.5 syn) Tea: Peanut curry (3 syns) with basmati rice Total: 3.5 syns & a gym visit I might have an angel slice (7 syns) or a bag of Walkers Sunbites...

Just made your peanut curry and it was unbelievable!!! So so scrummy!

Oh. My. God. I have just been into my local Tesco and it is like a spice wonderland! The spice section is absolutely fantastic!!! I've never noticed it before! I could have got really carried away but they're fairly expensive so I just bought what I need for tonight for now, but oh my god it was...

Yep will do! It's had loads of great reviews so I'm really excited :D Thank youuu - I'm expecting a little gain or STS after my binge at the weekend so I've not got mega high hopes this week, therefore I'm prepared :) xxx

Yesss definitely, we're going to smash it this year :D I won't be having anything exciting for lunch, probably a Pasta 'n' Sauce or something, but I'm planning on cooking Pete's (bilsat) Peanut Curry tonight so I'm super excited :D I weigh in on Saturday morning about 9am :) xxx

I've just realised, I think tomorrow will be a year to the day that I started SW! I was hoping to have lost more weight by now but then I'm not in a rush so it's all good :) I did have a couple of months off and gained 6lbs!!! This year is going to be 10x better :D

He does look like a teddy bear sometimes, depends how scruffy his hair is :giggle: he's worn me out this morning wanting to play! He likes hide and seek - I hide behind something and he comes to find me and jump on me :p so we've been running around this morning and I'm shattered now! Good job...

Ahhhh I feel all refreshed now I've had my hair done, but I've not had tea yet so I'm just cooking that now so I won't have time to make muffins AGAIN! I'm thinking I'll probably do them over the weekend at some point when I've got some free time. Alfie is moping about, Kay, because me and mum...

Evening Cookie, welcome! Thanks for popping in :D x

I'm sorry to hear about your gain, Cookie. I admire your spirit and determination! I think when you know you've stuck to plan all week it annoys the hell out of you at first, but then you realise actually you haven't cheated so what have you got to feel down about? It's obviously not happened...

Yeah I suppose we could squeeze that in at some point ;)

Haha perfect! x

How very rude! :giggle:

Arrggghhh found it but can't access it - I take it you're a gold or silver member or something? Grrrr never mind! I'll get there one day ;) x

I'll hunt now, thanks! x

I've just updated yesterday's food diary so take a look! I didn't end up making breakfast muffins last night as by the time I'd finished my tea it was 8.45 and I still needed a shower after my body tone class and I was shattered! I'm not going to the gym tonight as I'm having my hair done so I...

Kay - He is so much fun Kay, he is a little bugger though! He steals slippers, and he paws at you if you don't give him enough attention :rolleyes: he's such a good boy though the majority of the time! Love him to bits :) I do wish he was as small as his pup pic sometimes though :p he was funny...

Some pictures of my little cutie pie :D I know there's lots but he just looks so cute in all of them! First one is when he was a tiny puppy... As you can see, he listens to me intently and tilts his head in amazement hehehe!

Hehe yay! I'm not sure my Alfie would like to share that title so we'll keep it to ourselves for now :giggle: he's a bit of a diva :king2: I think I remember seeing pics of Kathryn's Alfie, and I totally agree is such a cutie pie! xx

That little cutie pie is my little Alfie :D I'll post a couple more pics later, because that picture does not do him justice - he is adorable! I get on his nerves kissing him all the time :giggle: xx

Ahhh I may try that next time, perhaps that's why I think the outside is a bit tough. I'll do that and see what happens. Thanks Pootle! x

Oh wow no I haven't! I bet that's amazing, I'll definitely be investing in some of that!! :D I start on the 31st so only 2.5 weeks left of this torture hahaha! Danielle xx

Hehe I thought you would appreciate the bunnies :D I, more often than not, use oil when I do normal chips and count it because I use HEXB at breakfast, but if I don't have the syns I just spray them. But I had never made sweet potato chips before (I actually ended up doing rough cubes out of...

I'm planning on making the SW breakfast muffins later on so I can start saving my HEXB, and hopefully they'll be more filling than the Alpen bars too. I can either grab a couple for work, or if I have free time, have one with bacon and beans or something! I suppose they'll be similar to my mini...

Today's food so far: Breakfast: 1 Alpen light bar (HEXB) Lunch: Jacket potato with beans, then a bag of Walkers Sunbites (6 syns) Snack: 1 Alpen light bar (HEXB) Tea: Aldi lamb shank (3.5 syns) with potato medallions in the air fryer (2 syns for oil), Aunt Bessie's carrot and swede mash (0.5...

Ugh I cannot WAIT to have a microwave and toaster available for lunch! I'll have to go out today and get a jacket spud with beans from the shop - I fancied jp with chicken salad again but I forgot to bring my light mayo with me and I can't eat it without so it'll just have to be beans. I get so...

Is everyone, like me, relieved to have Kay back in their lives?! :bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance::bunnydance:

I have always done it from home Bev, but I don't think I could have done it if my mum didn't do it too, and she goes to group. She passes on what she knows and I use her books and her log in details to use the iPhone app. I think the fact that you have been going to group so you know the ins and...

Phew! We were all so worried about you... don't do that to us again, we were about to start putting up flyers! :missing: I definitely think it will do you some good to have a break and relax, everyone needs to blow off some steam now and again! We're just glad you're okay! Isn't it lovely to...

Hope everything is okay xxx

Afternoon BCP :) How has your day been so far? xx

Just had a look and if you order before 4pm it get's despatched today, and you should have it tomorrow, hopefully! xx

I use moonpig.com a lot for cards, particularly if I want to personalise one! I'm sure if you ordered today you would have it in plenty of time, and they're fairly cheap depending on the delivery option you choose!

MORRRRRRNINGGGGG!!! :character00238: The sun is shining so I am too :D Today's food - Breakfast: 2 Alpen light bars (HEXB) Lunch: Pasta (2 syns for oil to stop it sticking) with tuna mayo (2 syns for mayo) and a bag of Walkers Sunbites (6 syns) Tea: Will probably be steak with sweet potato...

Oh H I was so grateful for veg for tea! I was saying to a friend yesterday when you eat healthily then all of a sudden have a junk binge it makes you feel rubbish. Can only be a good thing! Hope you have a fab day xxx

Food for today :) Breakfast: 2 Alpen bars (HEXB) Lunch: Jacket potato with lots of chicken, lettuce, cucumber, onion, sweetcorn, boiled egg, beetroot and a couple of tbsp. worth of light mayo (4 syns), then a bag of Walkers Sunbites (6 syns) Snack when I got home: Small slice of cheese...

I've recorded my waist, tummy, hips, both thighs and both upper arms measurements tonight, and I'm going to measure again on Saturday after WI :) xx

I'm pretty good like that, I've never really been one for buying a takeaway after a night out, so I'm quite glad that it's one less thing to try and control! x

Well my stomach certainly doesn't appreciate all the rich food and alcohol I've consumed this weekend! :sign0137: I definitely think it's karma! My body must have become adjusted to healthier eating and this weekends binge has not agreed with it! I'm thinking it'll probably be the whiskey...

Kay, compare your 13.5 syn day to my whole weekend. You'll feel loads better trust me :crazy: Danielle xxx

Jacket potato with a chicken salad and a bit of light mayo = YUM!

Arrgghhh sorry everyone, I've had a hectic weekend! I drove up to Leeds on Saturday to visit a friend and didn't get back til late yesterday so I've not had much time to update you :rolleyes: Okay, so after about 3 weeks of feeling the urge to take to my scales with a sledgehammer, myself and...

Right I've decided that I'm going to have what I like (within reason). Nothing battered, I'll be sensible. But I've been to the gym today and burnt off the calories I've eaten, so in theory I'm starting from a clean slate :P if you look at it a different way, 1500 calories is required to lose...

Hi Pootle, thanks for popping in! Glad you're enjoying my diary :) xxx

Eeeek I hope so! Although I won't be too disappointed if not - I know I'm building up muscle and shrinking in size so that's good enough for me :) I'm going to my sister's for a takeaway tonight and I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Chinese. As much as I LOVE Indian takeaway, Chinese is better...

Hi sweetie, fab to see you. Thanks for subbing! xxx

Hmm... I personally don't mind the texture but I can imagine a lot of people not liking it because it is basically soggy bread (my mum won't try it) but no it doesn't taste like bread, all you can taste is the chocolatey goodness :p

Oops forgot yesterday's diary! Breakfast: 1 Alpen light bar (HEXB) Lunch: Asda egg and potato salad with slices of ham, fat free vinaigrette and a dollop of branston pickle (1 syn), then a bag of Walkers Sunbites (6 syns) Tea: Lamb steak with roasties (done with fry light), broccoli...

Hi H, thanks for subbing! :thankyou: Aww thank you very much! The whole reason behind me doing this diary is so that I couldn't hide if I cheated! I know I could lie and no one would know but I'm the kind of person who would feel totally guilty about it even so! :giggle: I'm glad I can be of...

Weirdest breakfast this morning! I really wanted a tin of beans and sausages, and I ran out of eggs, so ended up having Smash with it! :eat: :giggle:

Haha yep any talk of lice always makes me itch :8855: glad you're all sorted now :) Just about to pop over to my diary and reply to your message on there... See you soon! xxx

Hi Bev, just popping in to subscribe! What a fantastic loss so far :D I've not managed to read your whole diary just yet but I will do later when I get some free time. I'm looking forward to hearing about your next WI! Pop over to my diary when you can, I welcome new friends :D Danielle xxx

Hi H, just dropping in to sub :) Sorry to hear about your new friends! Poor thing, I hope you're able to evict them very soon! I'm similar to you with regards to healthy extras, except I don't use my HEXA. I don't drink tea or coffee so don't use milk for that, and on the rare occasion I do...

Well Mum's doing SW too, and doesn't like sweets either. Dad's not too fussed, so I'll either let the OH have it, or put it with the collection we keep for when my nephew and nieces come round - they are the complete opposite to me and are terrible for eating sweets! Although their dad might get...

OMG funniest thing happened yesterday that left me baffled! Got an envelope in the post yesterday that contained just one strawberry Maoam sweet and a compliment slip from something called Sweets for Free, that said enjoy your free sweet! I don't remember subscribing to anything so I don't know...

Hi Lindsey, popping in to subscribe! Food looks great hun, and hats off to you for multi-tasking efforts super mum! Danielle xx

Hi Opal_Lily, Your food always looks absolutely fantastic and you seem to have some brilliant ideas! I follow you on IG and love seeing what you've cooked up, but every time I click on the link to your diary, I get the error message I used to get when I was new to mins! Very frustrating, it's...

I'm not really a fan of mug shots to be honest - probably the only SWer that isn't! I do have a food flask that I used to use, but it doesn't keep my food warm for very long at all. I meant to invest in a more expensive one a while ago and never got round to it, but I guess I don't need to now...

As mentioned above, I am extremely restricted lunch-wise at the moment as all I have at work is a kettle and a tiny fridge :( but luckily I start a new job in a few weeks where I will have a microwave and toaster so I'm planning ahead to make sure I'm well prepared with lots of yummy lunch...

It's a fab link isn't it Kay! I've added a few of the recipes to my collection for future testing hehe! I'm very tempted to stock up on more Nutella, as I'm scraping the bottom of my current jar, and make some more pudding tonight! :p Had an okay morning thank you! Another boring salad lunch...

I made the Nutella bread pudding last night it was absolute unbelievable! Felt like I was being dead naughty :p

:wow: My Nutella bread pudding was absolutely unbelievable! I didn't expect it to turn out the way it did, and I really can't describe the consistency but it was so chocolatey and yummy! I struggled to finish it because it was quite sickly but I forced it down haha! It felt like such a naughty...

Absolutely Lindsey! :D Okay so yesterday's diary is as follows: Breakfast: 1 Alpen light bar Lunch: Co-op chicken and bacon salad (5 syns worth), then slices of ham with pickled onions and 1 tbsp. branston pickle (1 syn) Tea: Aldi lamb shank (3.5 syns) with sliced potatoes air fried (2 syns)...

Yeah I do find I'm okay if I just eat the mini babybel lights... It's very strange!

I learnt that soon enough and kept asking for just a small amount haha! I've been counting an extra syn or two as well though just in case, but I'm just going to cut it out all together. I definitely think I look smaller and people have commented on it, so I'm trying not to worry too much!

Well I've been through every page and saved all of the recipes I love so I'm well up to date :D fantastic recipes Pete you are an absolute God-send!

I gained the 2lbs I lost last week!!! :mad: I had 1 cheat day but went to the gym every single day and my syns on the other days were fairly average so it really put a downer on my day - I came up with 2 conclusions. My leg muscles have been feeling really tight so I thought perhaps muscle...

Not such a fantastic result at Saturday's weigh in - after about 10 go's on the scales just to be sure, I had to deal with the realisation that I gained the 2lbs I lost the week before :cry: Gutted - it really put a downer on my day. I know I cheated but I went to the gym every single day and...

Thanks for the support girls! My headache definitely eased off today so I've been feeling much better :happy036: Today's diary is a lot better, although I did indulge in more chocolate! :17729: keeping within my syns of course! ;) Breakfast: 1 Alpen light bar (HEXB) Lunch: Jacket potato with...

I'm backkk! I am VERY behind so I do apologise! I've had a hectic and stressful few days to say the least so I've not had much time to myself until now! I have a few diaries to catch up on so here goes: Sunday Breakfast: Bacon sandwich (HEXB + 4 syns because I used 800g wholemeal slices) with...

3 fantastic achievements there hun, congratulations! :winner: I'm so pleased for you, you totally deserve it! Sorry I haven't replied to your message on my thread... I have had a very stressful and hectic few days, but I'll hopefully be able to update you on my missing food diaries later on...

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this yet as I haven't read every page :confused: But I have just discovered Shape 0% fat crumble flavour yoghurts - rhubarb and apple - and they are amazing! I am normally a massive fan of apples so I left that one til last as I thought I would prefer it...

I must admit that's exactly what I did when I stepped off the scales! :scale: :banana dancer: hehehe! xx

I'm positively elated today and the sun is shining! Yippeeee! Thanks Kay! :hug99: xxx

After 2 weeks of STS I have lost 2lbs this week! Yippeeee!

Fridayyy & Saturday WI I accidentally went over my syns yesterday! :copon: Breakfast: 1 800g slice of wholemeal toast (HEXB) with Clover lighter (1 syn) Lunch: This is what I forgot to count! I had a bit of a stressful afternoon... Driving home for work I was stuck in a huge queue of traffic...

Todayyy Well today's food has been fairly uninspiring! And I'm still hungry :mad: Breakfast: 1 800g slice of medium wholemeal toast (4 syns) with Clover lighter (1 syn), then a caramel HiFi mid morning (HEXB) Lunch: Jacket potato with cheese (HEXA + 1 syn to be on the safe side) and beans...

Oh good! I kept reading that the strawberry and lemon ones were free but could never find the coconut ones! :thankyou: xx

Hi Jennie, I nearly bought the coconut and vanilla greek yoghurts myself but couldn't find the syn value - can you help me out? :) Danielle xx P.S - Are they nice? I'm not keen on the strawberry ones so I was hoping I'd like the coconut...

Wednesdayyy Had another fab trip to the gym last night, and I'm paying for it today with extremely sore thighs :cry: Oh well - beauty is pain! Here's yesterday's food diary: Breakfast: 1 800g slice of wholemeal toast (HEXB) with Clover lighter (1 syn) Lunch: New potatoes mixed with fried...

Tuesdayyy Yesterday's diary: Breakfast: A caramel HiFi bar and an Aldi Fat Free strawberry Greek style yoghurt Lunch: A rather uninspiring bowl of tuna mayo using 2 tins of tuna and 2 tbsp. light mayo (4 syns). I later had a big mug of Cadbury's hot chocolate (6 syns) Tea: Steak (done with a...

Hi Cookie - here to subscribe! :D Breakfast for dinner sounds FAB :p enjoy! x

Hey missy, what do you say to me? A sts is better than a gain! I've stayed the same the last 2 weeks but I really do feel like I look smaller, and people have commented that I'm shrinking! I can fully understand how gutted you must be though that you narrowly missed out on your 3 stone award :(...

Tea last night consisted of Aldi Hunter's Chicken (3.5 syns) and half an Aldi Piri Piri chicken breast (1.5 syns), with air fried chips (2 syns for oil) and salad. As I had 8 syns left over I finished my Valentine's chocolates from the OH :p 8 syns exactly! So 15 syns total - however I didn't...

Mondayyy Hiiii, I don't even want to talk about my weekend, food diary or otherwise, as it was very stressful. So today is a brand new day! And so far I have had no syns whatsoever! :copon: Breakfast: 1 Brooklea fat free strawberry Greek style yoghurt (Aldi) Lunch: Brought a tin of tuna to...

Forgot Thursdays diary! Breakfast: 2 double choc Alpen light bars Lunch: Half a Co-op sweet chilli chicken and noodle salad (I'll call it 3 syns just in case), raspberry and choc Muller light, couple of slices of pastrami Tea: Cheese on toast on small white bread (6 syns and HEXA) and a blob of...

P.S. I didn't make it to my LB&T class because I had a poorly pooch that needed a trip to the vets :(

Wednesdayyy Today's food diary: Breakfast: 1 summer fruits Alpen light bar and 1 double choc Lunch: Co-op tuna and sweetcorn pasta salad (4 syns), raspberry and choc sprinkles Muller light, some red grapes, and a couple of slices of turkey breast. Tea: Lamb steak, air fried chips (2 syns for...

I can DEFINITELY appreciate the need for 'me time'! :D Aww bless her :) I like Valentine's Day, but we don't go overboard. Just a card this year - last year we exchanged a box of rum truffles (homemade by the OH which I actually thought was very sweet and they were absolutely divine!) and a...

Tuesdayyyy Yesterday's diary is as follows: Breakfast: 1 summer fruits Alpen light bar, and 1 double choc Lunch: Jacket potato with chicken pieces and 2 tbsp. light mayo (4 syns) Tea: Aldi hunter's chicken (3.5 syns) with new potatos (buttered, 1 syn) and salad. Yummy!! Snack: Graze chocolate...

Yes we're off out for a nice meal so I'm very excited :D I normally weigh in on Saturday, but I may do what I did last week and weigh in on Friday instead, then get back to normal next week. Do you have plans for VD? x

Sorry I've not posted recently, I've been mega busy... And still am! Weigh in last week showed that I stayed the same, which is fine because I was poorly so probably didn't eat enough and I didn't go to the gym at all! So it's fine :) I didn't post a Thursday food diary, and to be honest I...

Sorry I haven't posted yesterday's diary, I'll do it later... Just a quick note - although I said last Sunday that it would be the last one where I needed to cheat, I was wrong! I forgot that I'm going away this weekend! So I'll do my weigh in a day early... Results to follow x

Wednesday Back to work today but still wasn't feeling 100%! Breakfast: Nothing... Lunch: Beef & Tomato Tesco Pot Noodle out of pure laziness and just not feeling like making anything exciting! (5.5 syns), a bag of ready salted French Fries (4 syns) Snack: 1 Summer Fruits Alpen Light bar and 1...

Tuesday Sorry I didn't post yesterday... I was off work with flu and couldn't barely lift my head off my pillow! Only to eat when I was absolutely desperate! Breakfast: 2 x 400g slices of wholemeal toast (HEXB) with 1 tbsp. Clover Lighter (3.5 syns) Lunch: Crabmeat mixed with 1 tbsp. Colman's...

I thought so too! I know the sainsburys own brand ravioli is free, and that's what mum meant to buy for me trying to be helpful, but she picked up the wrong one! Never mind... I need to buy some lemsip tomorrow... In the meantime I'm tucked in bed watching friends :) Thanks for the well wishes xx

Sunday/Monday I forgot to do yesterday's diary but, to be honest, there wasn't much to it! Breakfast: Zzzzz..... Lunch: McChicken Sandwich, large fries and large Coke :p Hangover heaven! Tea: Homemade syn-free Bolognese with chips cooked in the AirFryer Considering my hangover it could have...

Mind if I join? I'm a Saturday weigher as I'm dieting from home... Currently 1lb off a stone loss, which is where I was at back in August last year, so I can't wait to get past that! I lost 2lbs last week which I was super pleased with! I had a bad weekend though due to a friend's 21st birthday...

Thank God I'm not alone! Knew I could count on you Kay ;) tehehe x

Is there anyone available to come and slap some sense into me?! I haven't had breakfast yet and I don't even care. Aaarrrrgggghhhh! :mad:

Arrrgggghhh well I have the hangover from HELL after a friends 21st birthday celebrations last night, so I have a McDonald's on it's way... I am very naughty I know, but I don't get hangovers like this very often and normally I can stick to diet, but today I just can't. And yesterday was...

Thanks Kay!! xx

Thanks Linzi! Let me know how you get on on Monday x

Hi Linzi, thanks for subscribing! Glad I'm making someone laugh hehehe... I'm feeling lots better today thank you x

YAYYYYY! YAYYYY! Weigh in day and I lost 2lbs! Yippeeee!! :bliss: This may be partly due to the fact that I was poorly yesterday so didn't have much of an appetite at all! Breakfast: 1 Cherry Bakewell Alpen Light Bar Lunch: Made up a big bowl of rice and tuna (weird combo, I know) and had...

Thursdayyy I CHEATED AGAIN :doh: What is it about Thursdays?! I did really well all day, right up until tea time... Breakfast: 1 Cherry Bakewell Alpen Light bar Lunch: Went to the sandwich shop again and got a plain jacket potato and a beef salad (no fat on the beef, and the same salad as...

I've had a very well behaved day today! Alpen Light bar for breakfast, jacket potato and beef (no fat) salad with a little salad cream for dinner, then my other Alpen Light bar mid-afternoon. So I've only used 2.5 syns so far! Off to my aunty's house tonight for beef stew :p so I've still got...

Wow what a scrummy day! And you packed so much into it! :worthy: Well done!

Well I didn't end up at the gym for reasons I won't go into, but I am absolutely definitely 100% going to the gym after work with a friend, I promise! :D The ActiFry is great! It's my mum's, and I think they're fairly expensive but definitely worth it! We don't use it to it's full capacity but...

Wednesday! I've been on my best behaviour today :angel09: no biscuits or cakes! Here goes... Breakfast: 1 cherry bakewell Alpen Light bar and 1 double choc Alpen Light bar Lunch: Went to the sandwich shop and bought the yummiest lunch I've had in ages! Plain jacket potato with a chicken salad...

Plain jacket potato with a chicken salad on the side, and a bit of salad cream. So yummy!!

Tuesday! Sorry I didn't give you yesterday's food diary! I was having my hair done :banana dancer: (I'm sorry but how funny is that?!) Here it is... better late than never! Breakfast: 1 cherry bakewell Alpen Light bar and 1 double choc Alpen Light bar Lunch: Same as Monday except swapped the...

[/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE] One of my favourite breakfasts is sliced apple with crème fraiche, a drizzle of honey and a sprinkling of cinnamon! :heartpump: Never tried banana with crème fraiche but it sounds yummy so I'll give it a go!

Isn't it just?! I've fallen in love :heartpump:

Oh wow! This definitely puts my measly jacket potato and cheese to shame! That looks SCRUMMY! :bananalove:

2.5lbs is tiny considering you've been so restricted! And like Rae Rae said, it's probably just water weight, and when you get back on track, that extra couple of lbs will fall off! I wouldn't worry too much about the way you're feeling. I went through a few months where I just wasn't focused...

Morning Kay! How are you feeling? Really sorry to hear that you're in so much pain :( I hope you're managing to stay on track food-wise! I get awful back pain sometimes and I find that lovely, warm, comfort food makes me feel a little better. Do you have any Mug Shots in? Or beans on toast...

Just a simple jacket potato with cheese and salad cream today, yummy!

Monday! Been to the gymmm! Yay me... Feel free to give me a virtual pat on the head :angel09: Here's today's food diary: Breakfast: 1 Cherry Bakewell Alpen Light bar & 1 Double Chocolate Alpen Light bar (HEXB) Mid-morning Snack: My boss went to the shop and bought lots of cakes and biscuits...

Sundayyyy Sunday's Food Diary: Breakfast: Bacon and cheese sandwich (HEXA & HEXB) with tomato ketchup (1 syn) Lunch: Spicy curry Tesco pot noodle (5.5 syns) Tea: Diet Coke chicken with chips cooked in the AirFryer (2 syns for oil) Also had 250ml Cranberry & Raspberry juice (6 syns) Total...

I made the SW tuna pasta bake for lunch yesterday it was so yummy and filling, and only 1 syn per portion!

Weigh In! Apologies for not posting my diary yesterday, it was another busy day! I had my weigh in this morning and I have stayed the same which I am quite happy with considering I cheated! And I only visited the gym once... Here is yesterday's diary: Breakfast: Raspberry & chocolate Muller...

I must admit I pondered over the menu for a very long time, and I normally would have just cheated altogether and gone for the chips, so I'm very proud of myself! I'm getting stronger! It was a great night :) x

Arrggghhh! Busy busy yesterday! So I'll have to give you yesterday's diary now.. and guess what? I CHEATED :cry: Here goes... Breakfast: An After Eight :sigh: (2 syns) Lunch: Ran out of potatoes but didn't realise until last minute, so I had to plump for a Tesco's own Chicken & Mushroom pot...

Wednesday's Diary! Well I've been a good girl and visited the gym tonight! :D Here is today's food diary... Breakfast: Skipped again :wave_cry: but I will be buying Alpen Light bars in this week's shop like I used to, seeing as I seem to just be using my HEXB at night because I have it spare...

Hi Kay, I'm fine thank you, how are you? I'm just about to do today's diary so keep your eye out ;) how have you done today, food-wise? Danielle xx

Glossy Box I noticed a thread the other day discussing Graze boxes. I used to have one every week, and some of the things you get in them are really yummy! Others, not so great... Then I thought to myself, why am I spending over £15 a month on a box of food that I might not like when it gets...

Hi Lindsey, thanks for subscribing! :D To be honest, I've never made them with cottage cheese, only Quark. But from reading other recipes that use cottage cheese, a lot of them tell you to whizz it in a blender first to make it smooth. Quark is very smooth already so you don't have to bother...

Well that was my plan! I found the no added sugar version, but picked up the wrong one by mistake!!! So I'm saving it for when I have lots of syns left :)

Monday! Hi again! Here is today's food diary :) Breakfast: 2 mini crustless quiches (see recipe above) Lunch: Jacket potato with a mix of ham, cheese (HEXA), spring onions and 2 tbsp. 70% less fat salad cream (2 syns). 4 more quiches :p Tea: Made a big bowl of pasta with tuna, sweetcorn and...

Wow you look fantastic! What a lovely picture :) I keep meaning to make soups and things I just never get round to it. I am coping so much better with lunches now I can do my jacket potatoes because they really fill me up for the rest of the afternoon. I'm always trying new things so I'll get...

Nope, I wasn't aware, but I am now! :D Thanks Kay, I'll post them on there as well from now on. I do a lot of research so they're only recipes I've copied :) but I like to share them because they are just so scrummy! I'm very well thank you, hope you're well too. Hope your day is going okay...

You're a SW angel! You're very inspiring... 6 stone in just over a year?! Incredible! I think you've got to have your kind of mind set to get the best out of SW and I'm trying my best to get there! I lost a stone then put 6lbs back on, now I've only got 3 more lbs to lose before I'm back to...

Hi Bunnylush! This is completely off topic, but I have just noticed that your start weight was 1 stone 2.9lb and your current weight is just 10.9lb! What's your secret?! Hehehe I think your numbers are a bit out of sync in your profile, but I'm assuming you've gone from 12 stone 9lb to 10 stone...

I had jacket potato with a mixture of cheese, ham, spring onion and salad cream (70% less fat of course!). I also had a nibble on a couple of homemade syn free crustless quiches! Yummy!

Roasties! Hi again! Just having a read through my thread so far, and reading Sunday's food diary made me remember a yummy recipe I found for low fat roast potatoes a while ago. I had to tweak it a little but the finished result was divine! (Pinched from BBC Good Food) Ingredients 800g...

Quiche! Morning all! Who else hates Tuesday's? :rolleyes: Such a nothing-y day... Thought I'd share another recipe with you :) I made some syn free mini crustless quiches last night, and I've already had two of them for my breakfast :p (Pinched from a site called Low Syn Life) Makes 12 1/2...

I have decided that I need to drink a hell of a lot more water. My current beverage of choice is Pepsi Max, and lots of it :sigh: I know it's syn free but it always worries me how much artificial rubbish I'm consuming! The only time I drink water is when I go to the gym, and that's a minimal...

ARRRGGHHHH CRISIS! :cry: I found some of my favourite fruit juice, Cranberry & Raspberry, in a no added sugar version and checked my sw app and it's free, so I picked up 2 big cartons, not realising I picked up 2 normal ones which were mixed in with no added sugar!! 6 syns per 250ml...

That's what I was thinking, but then if I'm only using a small amount, especially if I buy double strength, compared to the amount of water going into then it's got to be better right? I don't know, but it's worth a shot! My intake of water will be significantly higher drinking cordial than...

Again, I've tried it but it's just not right! Ha... I know there are next to no calories in Pepsi Max and Coke Zero, etc. But I do drink a lot of it and it's all the artificial rubbish that's in it that worries me! I definitely need to invest in some sugar free cordial... That's tonight's...

I could! But I don't :rolleyes: My habit is Pepsi Max :sigh: I just find water so boring! I know it's super good for you but I try to drink it and it lasts about an hour before I cave and get a can! I don't mind sugar free cordial so I might start bringing a bottle to work with me and getting...

Here to sub back! :D Looks like I'm going to need your motivation to start drinking more water... Sorry, let me rephrase that... Looks like I'm going to need your motivation to start drinking water, full stop! The only time I drink water is when I go to the gym, but that's only small sips...

Hi Niamh, thanks for subscribing! Congrats on your losses so far, it's great to have people who have done so well subscribe to my thread. Hopefully you can give me some pointers where I need them and share your stories too! Danielle x

Thanks for subscribing Kay! They really are scrummy and I worried about that myself. But they do make good size squares so after eating 2 I'd had enough, because it does make a reasonably thick layer of the chocolate cheese on top and too much of it is quite sickly, and I have a very sweet...

Oh god! :eek: I'm addicted to my phone as it is! Here's the link to my thread - as you can imagine there isn't much to look at right now but I'm determined to post daily so enjoy! :) x http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-weight-loss-diary/334338-extra-easy-danielles-sw-journey.html

7lbs is a fantastic loss! Although you feel like a fraud, and you may put a small amount back on when you start to eat normally again, try to use it as a positive and motivation to keep on going. Show the people that were mean to you about your weight the middle finger! :D Just remember - you...

I'm always on the look out for other people's diaries/journeys because it keeps me motivated. We're all in this together! :D I'm sure you'll do just fine while you're over there, but hey, even if you don't, who cares? It's not permanent, you've got a perfectly good reason if you don't stick to...

Eeek! :D Well Saturday's weigh in saw a 3lb loss for me which I am super happy about! :D Especially considering I only made two trips to the gym last week, so I'm made up! I'm finally back on track and I'm so happy :) I can now begin my food diary... Sunday: Breakfast: I skipped breakfast...

Hi! Well done on your 4lb weight loss, that's fab! I'm starting a food diary myself as I'm like you, I think it will keep me motivated if I write it down - I can't hide that way! I'm sorry about your dad, it must be a very difficult time. If you're worried about overeating while you're there...

So tomorrow is weigh in day for me! I'm not optimistic if I'm honest, but that's what the diary is for! To keep me going and keep me from hiding if I cheat :o I don't want to start my diary the day before my weigh in so as of Monday I will be recording my every move :) So while you're waiting...

Well I desperately need something to keep me motivated because I've hit a brick wall if I'm honest. If I keep a food diary on here for everyone to see then there's no hiding if I'm bad :rolleyes: I hope I can motivate people too, like yourself! So keep your eye on my thread if you like :) xx

I didn't realise there was one until today so I've downloaded it tonight so I'm good to go! :) I'll give you the link to my thread when it's set up x

Hi all! After reading an inspiring thread about one woman's day to day munching and body magic, I have decided to do the same in the hope it will keep me motivated and drive me to success! Here's a bit about my journey so far... I started doing SW from home back in March 2013 after my mum...

Hi Izzy :), Well done on your progress! Like you, I am slowing becoming addicting to this virtual world but it is unbelievably motivating to read everyone's stories. I think I may start a diary myself and hopefully it will keep me on track. I lost 12lbs from March last year to August when I...

This sounds all too familiar! I went through a sudden, unexpected break up, and got told a vicious rumour that he broke up with me because 'I turned into a whale'. I had put on a lot of weight after being prescribed steroids after a life threatening allergic reaction, which I thought he...

Pepsi Max???? Hi! I know this is a rather old post but I'm hoping you'll read it! I made diet coke chicken last night and it was absolutely divine. :p But I had to nip to the shop because I only had Pepsi Max in the house, not diet coke. Is there a difference in taste if I use Pepsi Max? Does...

Hi all! I started SW in March 13 weighing 12 stone 4lbs :cry: by August I had lost 12lbs ready for my summer holiday, and after weighing myself when I got home I had actually LOST another 2lbs, giving me a 1 stone loss in total! How is that possible on holiday?! Think I may move abroad if that's...

I really wouldn't let it dishearten you. Everyone's body is different! I find that my body can work a week behind a lot of the time. For example, if I go over my HEX allowance, like having too much cheese on my jacket potato a couple of days :sigh:, it makes my day when I get to weigh in and...

This has been so helpful! All I have at work is a small fridge and a kettle so I really struggle and I have a huge appetite! I have a food flask but I was only using it for the HEX soups and pasta n sauce, but I'm not a fan of the soup flavours, and the pasta n sauce seemed to go really rubbery...

This sounds scrummy!

A bit more exciting today - Ainsley Harriotts wild mushroom cous cous! Really looking forward to it... Also, 2 alpen light bars (HEXB) as I just had strawberries and vanilla yoghurt for breakfast (fave), salt & vin French fries, seafood sticks, and an asda whirly bite for my choc treat :P

Boring old ham, reduced fat WW cheddar cheese and light mayo (2 syns) on wholemeal mini bread (HEXA & HEXB), vanilla muller, cherry bakewell Alpen Light (3 syns), and ready salted French Fries (19g 4 syns). Hoping to raid the cupboards and be a little more adventurous tomorrow. It's difficult as...
