Just a quick question, as you've got a separate section for HEAs and HEBs do you not include these in your meal sections? Or do you just repeat the information? Thanks

I've just had a sticky toffee pudding yogurt from Asda (looking at previous threads I think these are syn free) and a glass of Lambrini light for 2 syns.

I've had this dvd for a few months now but I never opened it! Well, today was day 1 level 1. I couldn't do a few of the exercises but I made sure I kept moving. I did sweat and think of giving up but I got through it! I do feel really sick now though, does anyone have any tips for that? :)

Bloody hell Honeyoc, you must spend a fortune!!! :O

I just put an order in last night for the first time on rosspa.com What I ordered is for 2 weeks for 2 adults. Not all of it is healthy but it's for the OH! Honest. 1 x Crucials Thai Style Sweet Chilli Sauce 500ml = £1.00 1 x Crucials Garlic Mayo 500ml = £1.00 1 x Wye Valley Grated...

I'm going to have home made falafel burgers, sweet chilli carrots and rice. :)

Oh dear. I stopped going to class and now I've fallen off the bandwagon. I need to get back onto it! I'm promising myself that I'll start again tomorrow. :)

Well done. :)

My OH and I are on your budget permanently! I'd highly recommend the Old Style board on moneysavingexpert.com, it's full of cheap recipes.

I'm still a little confused by this. They say that you can eat chickpeas as a snack... surely no one eats them raw?!

My OH doesn't get home until 10pm, and I wait and eat with him! :cry:

I'm having home made carrot and yam soup. :)

I've never par boiled my potatoes - just stick them in the oven with some frylight. They've always turned out yummy!

I had my third weigh in yesterday and I got my half a stone award. Yippee!

I had SW egg pancakes (free), strawberries and sweetened quark with some chopped brazil nuts (heB). It was nice apart from the quark, it's bloody horrible!!

I'm having Mexican takeaway. Chicken enchilada and nachos! :x

I had rice with veggies and a muller light.

I think this will work come Wednesday, just wondered about the 2 weights that are already in there on the wrong days! Ta :)

Good evening! I just logged onto SW online and saw that it says "You last entered your weight on 02/05/2011. You’ll be able to weigh-in again on 15/05/2011." This is wrong, I want to enter my weight after my weigh-in on Wednesday. Does anyone know how to change the 2 weights that are already in...

A bite of homemade pizza that the OH got from the freezer. I'm proud of myself for stopping at a bite, but I still have to syn it!

It's going to be left over curry from the SW Curry Feast book. Nommy. :)

I had sugar free raspberry jelly with strawberries, pear and banana. I usually have weetabix and milk so I'm going to have to find another way to get my healthy extras!

Oh I know, I don't like babies! When she said 'This is Nat, she's had a new kitchen' and you spoke with a scottish accent I was like 'ahhh, the lady from the forum!' Hehe. I was the one who she said started last week :P. I wouldn't mind doing Zumba but I found out that there isn't a bus back...

I was at the same weigh in as you yesterday! Way too shy to say hello :P. I've just read about the success express thing. Is it supposed to be used long term or just as a little boost? Let us know how it goes!

HP/squeezy/bottled bbq sauce usually turns sticky once its been in the oven!

I'm going to have a crustless quiche with rice and veg. :)

I usually take leftovers! It doesn't have to be what you had for tea the night before because I know that can get boring. Whatever I make for tea, I make an extra portion and free it. Then when I'm rushing in the morning I can just take a box out and take it with me. It can be anything; veggie...

So I finally decided to join slimming world and I went to my first meeting on Wednesday. I was a little disappointed with the group compared to my experience at WW a few years ago but the plan seems better so we'll see. Here's my food diary for the first 2 days. I'm so angry with myself...

Evening! I've just been to my first group and I'm not too sure what to think of it. Do you go to the one at St Catherine of Sienna? What are the group and leader like? No one seemed to talk to each other at the one I've just been to, quite disappointed really!

Ohh the one at the bottom of Granville Road? I was thinking of that one but everytime I've been passed it has been busy. Apparently there's a chart thing online for members so they can see when the busiest periods are, do you use this it all? I'll probably go to Woodseats social club or...

Noo! I'm not invited, I don't know them, so I don't care!

I'm really jealous! If I'd have stuck at it since January like you I would be smaller by now. Oh well, better late than never! Are you finding it easy to use up all your syns? What about exercise? I haven't been but none of the gyms in Sheffield have overly friendly reviews! Sorry for taking...

I've got two grapes in the freezer at the moment to try later! I've tried frozen banana before but I thought it was horrible. :(

Thanks for replying! I understand why some wholemeal is classed as a healthy extra but I'm still puzzled as to why non-wholemeal pasta is free when something made from the same ingredients wouldn't be. :(

I had 3 own brand weetabix with milk and a bag of minstrels. That's my syns gone already!

Ashamed to say I'm only just starting now! :( I work down Woodseats so I'll go to one down there. A friend lent me some books and I'm just trying to get my head around it. You've had some great losses, how are you finding it?

Gnocchi is really easy and cheap to make yourself! I use smart price instant mash. I do believe you need to syn the flour though, but making it yourself means you can alter the amount slightly!

I make my own just with flour, water and flavourings. Sometimes 1 squirt of fry light to cook but I believe that's free. Maybe I can still have them then? :)

Not sure if it'll be much use to you know but if you do green days and are on a budget their value pasta is now 9p a bag!

Hi, I'm going to go to my first meeting on Wednesday and I'm just trying to get my head around the diet before then. The one thing that I'm immediately struggling with is the fact that on green pasta is free, wholemeal bread can be used as a healthy extra, but tortilla wraps/pitas/flat breads...

Ohh you're doing really well! I remember speaking to you when you were just starting! I've finally decided to join slimming world, though I think I'll be going to one near work rather than Richmond x

I'm going to my first SW meeting on Wednesday so I'm still working out what's free etc! Tonight it's going to be gnocci with fried paneer, green beans and a wild garlic sauce. Nom!

I'm on 27 points a day, and so far I've only used 6 points! Granted, I haven't had my tea yet, but still, to use up my points I'm going to have to stuff my face?! I'm a bit dubious as to whether WW will work; I'm sure 27 points must be more than what I'm used to eat?! Does anyone have any...

B: 1/2 tin rice pudding (1.5) 1 cracker bread (0.5) S: mini tangerine D: 1/2 tin three bean soup (1.5) 3 cracker breads (0.5) light cheese triangle (0.5) mini whirly bar (1.5) T: slow cooker curry rolo pudding (4.5)

My clock ticking away.

I'm allowed 27 points a day - here goes! 16/01/11 B: 1/2 tin rice pudding (1.5) 1/2 apple (1) S: mini whirly bar (1.5) mini tangerine (I'm not too sure, help!?) D: 3 slices toast with butter S: nutty bar chocolate snowbites (10.5) T: slow cooker curry (not pointed yet) I plan to...

I found these in my local Home Bargains. They're really yummy! :)

Before I stock up, does anyone know if these freeze ok? And if so, for how long do they keep?

Not too sure if this has been posted but they are on offer at Asda! A round box of 8 for 50p! The expiry date isn't until May so I stocked up with a few boxes!

I'm not too sure if I'm going to join a meeting yet, still trying to decide. Partly due to finances and partly due to the fact that I'm nervous and shy and don't want to admit how much weight I've gained! :( x

I live on Manor Park so it would probably be Richmond that I'd join too! It hasn't really started at the moment, I need to though, I've got a lot to lose! Hope you enjoy the meeting. :)

Hi, I'm thinking of starting with SW and I live in Sheffield too. I was just wondering which meeting you're going to? Let me know how you get on when you go! x

I guess I just need to be creative and try cooking things a little different and mixing things up! I don't mind butternut squash but we're on an extremely tight budget which doesn't allow it i'm afraid!

I was just asking for ideas really, i've read through some of the pages in the thread but haven't really found anything (I could have just missed some!). :)

Yep! All the foods I like/can tolerate. :)

That's no good! Maybe you could have half, share with someone else? That way you'd still have 16 points left which is more than enough to have other meals! Sorry i'm not much help :(

Hi, i've recently started counting points again as i've put 5 stone on in the last few years but i'm having a bit of a hard time, I hope some of you will be able to help. Firstly, i'm on 26 points. Now, i've worked it out, and i'm sure what I usually eat (when not dieting) is equal or less...

Hey! I'm new to this forum but not new to dieting. Just over two years ago I joined weight watchers and lost a couple of stone (got down to 12 stone odd!) but quit a few months later and now i've put it all back on plus more. It was a combination of not writing things down/going to...
