-4 lbs for me this week please! :) Sorry I'm late with the update X

Hi Kay, I'd love to join if I still can! I took part in one of your challenges a (long!) while ago and it really worked. My last weigh in was Saturday and I was 154lbs so I'm looking to be down 20lbs by March :innocent0001::scale:

So change of plan to yesterday's dinner. I made chicken risotto instead - syn free and amazing :) I used some ff natural yogurt to make it creamy. The trick is to season it well.. So for today... B: Same as yesterday - 2 boiled eggs, ham, scallions and tbsp Philadelphia Light. (HexA) 3 x...

OK, I'm not being very strict at all lately!!!! The weekends are killing me! Beer, wine, cocktails, food! Although this weekend I had two birthday's so it was always going to be a bad one! I've been good during the week though! And I will be good all this week, including the weekend! I'm trying...

Today was a good day! Breakfast was the coffee with my HexA and 2 syns for sugar. Skipped lunch because I had to go out unexpectedly. Had 2 Ryvita with Philadelphia Light Garlic & Herbs when I got back so that's 2.5 syns and HexA. Dinner was my lasagne and sweet potato fries with some roasted...

Hi everyone :) Good to see loads of newbies joining up! Personally, between the books and Minimins support I don't need the classes. Which is fortunate because I can't afford them or make time for them anyway! I really must have eaten a tonne of bad food over the past month because I went from...

Well, it's free if I'm using the reduced fat cheese as HexA, which I do! I used EL mince, lots of veggies, make my own sauce from passata, garlic, tinned tomatoes, herbs and spices and the white sauce I make using fta free natural yogurt mixed with an egg and some grated nutmeg. It's...

Here to sub :) Well done on refusing the cake! That's the hard part of working in an office, someone always brings something nice in. I'll just sit in the corner and have my carrot sticks then! :jelous: Sorry to hear about your grandda's passing but a belated happy anniversary to you and your...

I have 2 NSV's today - 1) Fit into a dress I bought five years ago when I originally started dieting. It was my 'goal' dress, and it finally zipped up today! 2) I know this is really bad, but when I gained I never actually bought new bras. They still kind of fit me but I'd literally wear them...

Thanks Kay :) I'll keep it carb free for dinner, I'll have the pitta for lunch, just thought the pitta + sweet potato may be pushing my luck with the carbs lol :) Good luck with day 2 everyone :)

Hi Kay :) What would you recommend carb-wise? I had planned on having a wholemeal pitta (60g) with lots of salad and a small veggie pattie made from sweet potato, chickpeas, frozen peas, courgette and onion.. Is that too much to have?? And this would not be my salad maincourse... Thanks! :) Xx

Whoooo we can do it blondcat!!! I'm aiming to see a 9 on those scales next week! :superwoman:

Alright my birthday is over and I weighed in at 10st 7lbs this morning so that's a stone from my goal and I plan on working hard at it to get there hopefully by 31/07/14. Haven't eaten yet today and still not hungry plus the fridge is 90% alcohol atm :)

Hi Daz 2lbs off please and thanks :)

we must be learning self control :D

I do notice I normally want a curry or something at the end of the night, but now I am able to say ah no let's not do that much damage, which honestly is not something I used to say at all! And I drink gin and sl tonic usually, it's just at the bbqs and parties the drinks have either been wine...

So I weighed myself this morning because I just had to know where I was at the moment, and I'm 10st 8lbs! I actually don't believe it because I felt like an actual heifer last night! I was so worried I'd crept back to the 11's! Off to a good start today, although didn't have my All Bran so...

Aaargh! I am literally sabotaging myself! Over-eating doesn't describe it! And the wine! In an ideal world it would be syn-free, can't get enough of the stuff!!:banghead: Anyway, my birthday is on Monday, which was my original goal, and I'm over a stone from my target (so down!) Although I did...

Hey blondcat, How funny, we are really similar! Although after my recent little blow outs I'm about 10st 9lbs, going to have to get that under control! Just been loads of occasions and bbq's and alcohol related get-togethers haha! How are you finding the 5:2 diet?? It seems to be working for you...

Hi everyone, haven't been on here at all lately.. Stupid phone broke, and I've been eating and drinking rings around myself the last 2 weeks! But my birthday is soon so after this weekend I'll get back on it (hopefully!) Think I've gained about 5lbs, hate myself for it now haha.. Well done...

Hi Daz, Gain for the 10th of 2lbs and same for the 17th:break_diet: Bbq's lead to wine and wine leads to lbs :doh: Thanks :)

10st 8.25lbs this morning (serial weigher!) Caved last night and had an oatie (3), a fig roll (3) and a little bowl of pasta in sf sauce.. Going to try hard to stick within my syns today.. Breakfast - wm pitta with bacon (no fat), scrambled egg with red onion and grilled tomato. Used 1 tsp...

So I'm 10st 8.75lbs.. I have to remind myself when I used to binge eat I'd be 12st on the scales.. it's keeping me from giving up, and so are the 'wow you've lost weight' comments and also my holiday in august with a load of skinny b*tches I call friends :D So today is my first proper SW day in...

Alright, I've been in hiding for a week because I've had so much on, and none of it was SW friendly! Bbqs, baby shower, wedding anniversary, numerous nights out, so much cake and snacks, many beers / gins / wines followed by gigantic slices of pizza and kebabs.. it was worth it:D so now all...

Had a colosal amount of syns yesterday, 6 beers (48 syns), and the largest slice of pizza I've ever seen which I'm gauging at 30 syns :banghead: So keeping syns low for the rest of the week.. So far today I've had tea with skim milk for breakfast and garlic chicken wrapped in ham with baby...

Weighed again this morning and I was up 1.5lbs!? Anyway, going to give weighing a rest (if I can!) because it's putting me off.. Breakfast was 2 slices wm toast (hexb + 2 syns), 1 tbsp rf butter ( 4 syns) with a boiled egg and 2 slices ham. That's the last of my bread so will either have green...

Oh that Satay recipe is great I'm definitely going to try it tomorrow! Thanks vavaness :) VickyT I had a 3lb gain a few weeks ago after what I thought was an OK week, I was devastated haha but I just drew a line under it and kept going and the following week I had a 3lb loss which was my...

How's everyone going?? Hope you're all seeing losses and feeling good :)

Thinking about tomorrow's brekkie before I go to bed lol.. It will be All Bran (HexB) with banana, mixed berries and some natural yog.. Never thought I'd be an All Bran fan but it's such a good brekkie, been having it all week and I get to hang on to my HexA using yog instead of milk :)

After losing my first stone I just could not see the loss anywhere myself (sounds crazy but it's true!). I have since lost another 4lbs and have noticed some jeans and trousers are baggy on me now, I had planned on just continuing to wear my clothes and treat myself when I had hit target.. I had...

I had been craving one of those Birdseye cheese and bacon inspirations as the ad for them seems to always be on whenever I watch tv! But at 295 cals and 15g of fat, no thanks! So I made an alternative version with Philadelphia Chives, crushed garlic clove and wrapped it in bacon instead of...

Woke up to such a miserable morning, really puts me off exercising lol! Spent the morning making lunch for my brother & sister.. they love all the SW recipes I've been using and the fact everything can be so tasty yet healthy. Also made some crustless quiche for lunchtime - smells amazing :)...

Beans on wholemeal toast, sometimes it's all I want lol.. I started putting a tsp of reduced fat butter and/or a dask skim milk into my beans while heating them, it makes them lovely and creamy and uses much less butter than when I spread it on the toast :)

Brekkie and lunch were both good and free.. Had a grande skinny latte with sugar free hazelnut syrup from Starbucks, 473ml in a grande so switched to a green day and counted as 2 hexA as well as some whole milk I had this morning in a coffee at home. Dinner was a pitta bread filled with sweet...
