Thanks:) Well I finished it, but my toes went a bit numb again...and I don't feel as if I'm 'jogging/running' very well yet - still trying to find my rhythm (and aunite is bit slower than me:D). But it does feel good when you've finished it;) I agree!! W2 quite dubious. I had a few strange...

W1, D3 done:cool: not staying beetroot coloured for as long now:o only thing was my toes started to go a bit numb towards the end...they are new trainers, so not sure if they're just wearing in?? Gonna do this W1 run again on Sunday with my auntie, as she has only done that twice. Then we'll do...

Wk1 Day 2 Done:D Really pleased with my new shock absorber bra, can't believe the difference. My auntie did this with me today and I have to admit to feeling I was going slow so she could keep up - my face never flushed up like the first time:o I thought she would be faster due to her going on...

Thanks for your words sofartogo x x Well, took the plunge and have just completed the NHS c25k week 1 session. Quite pleased with myself. Really enjoyed it. Decided to use our local large park for training (but I drove there...is that cheating?? in my defence, it's more of a safety factor;))...

Hiya:wavey: Just entered for my first Race for Life in 11 weeks time, with my auntie. I've been looking into this program and wondered what you all think of it? I have zero fitness:o, but would love to jog the race rather than walk it:) Any tips for a newbie? Can 2 people do this together!? I...

Well Done x x That's Great x x Hope WI doesn't come round too quickly this week, as I cannot handle all this going out:cry:...2 down, 1 to go:( Good words ColJack:)

Not sure how far Heron Foods shop go, but got kerry low low 200g cheese blocks 2 for £1.50 and primula light cheese tubes for 89p. Stocked up for me cheese feasts:D for healthy extra's, of course;)

Went to a different class to get weighed 1 night early, as out for hubby's birthday tomorrow (1 of 3 meals out he's having...:wave_cry:). 1.5lb off and got me stone sticker:D Just need to worry about this week now, as we don't normally go out:eek:

I've ordered the curry book from my C. Hope it arrives this week, really miss a good curry. Thanks for the recommendation:)

Not sure yet...first time I've made it:) Hope this works - http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-recipes/137596-super-speed-food-challenge-soup.html

Speed soup made yesterday. Really enjoyed the beany taste. 2 slices w/meal bread 400g loaf (heb) & 2 slices low low cheese melted on. Mmmmmmm:D

Made this today. I think I have a blister from all the chopping:rolleyes: Left it chunky and will split this with my auntie who's doing SW too. Glad I borrowed her huge stock pan:D

Made this in double amount today, so I could freeze some. Lovely on chicken thighs:D

Got me size 16 work trousers on, just in time to start me new job:D

3.5lbs gone for me. Pleased as I put on 1lb last week:o Well Done everyone x x

Yes, I think it gives it extra flavour:) I've used the Tesco h/living onion one and my favourite is the Longley Farm virtually fat free with chives.

Early Sunday lunch - roast beef, roast carrot & red onion, swede, green beans & mash. 2 x bitesize yorkie pud's (2 syns). Made complete with Britmum's syn free onion gravy. Fabulous:D

£1 in Asda

Roast chicken leg's, thigh's and loadsa roast veg. With syn free bbq sauce over the top. First try with the sauce, so finger's crossed;)

1lb on:(:o Gonna try some red & green days this week, for a change:sigh:

Quorn sausages, chopped tom's, toast (heb) and 2 poached egg's. Still can't decide if I like the quorn sausages or not ...:confused:

Well Done !

Ryvita minis 25p a bag in Home Bargains. Splash of worchester sauce flavour and slice of mature cheddar & onion flavour:)

Weetabix crunchy bran £1.50 in Asda:)

Mixed omelette, jacket spud and salad

Did them for 30 secs first, then mushed down with a fork, then another 30 secs. Think our mw is 700w. Was good enough for me, stuck to the bowl abit, but managed to scoop it out with the other end of the fork:rolleyes: Could of maybe done for longer, but I was worried about it exploding:D

Hubby's cooked roast beef and will do some roast veg for a late tea Mmmmm x x

I melted 5 laughing cow lights in the microwave and poured over a microwaved jacket spud, with a large salad and black pepper all over. For once, my tattie came out nice and the cheese was a lovely filling - 1st time I've tried them. Quick and very tasty:D

Was nervous, as I feel bloated at the mo & I've not been weighing inbetween class like I used to. 1lb off for me, which I'm happy with. Thoughts to those who's put on, as I felt as if I had. Hope your ok too, Arli x x I'm ready to start my fresh week;):)

Attempting Brit Mum's beef stroganoff...maybe with mash & loadsa veg. Ready for after weigh in ...

Wow, Well Done x x and from May...that's amazing. What's your secrets/tips/advice, please? Namesake!:)

1 lb gone, so got my first certificate (no stickers left:rolleyes:)

I'm doing EE at the mo, easier than cooking different meals for hubby and 3yr old:D I like my cheese too...on a Sat night in I've had 2 babybels HEA (don't like the light!), some ham rolled up with cottage cheese in. Kid myself it's my wine n cheese nite x x

:wavey:Hi Jemma, didn't want to read and run. I've just rejoined SW and am in my 3rd week. I'm still swotting me books and reading as much as poss on here;) Why not try the green/red days again, so you get more HE's? It's worth a try;) Do you go to class? Could you have a chat with your...

How long do the big pots of yog last once opened, please?

Thanks. I'm thinking of doing cottage pie with it, bulking it with onions and some veg. Will adding some stock or bovril make it work? and do you add a LC triangle to the mash instead of butter? Sorry for all the questions:o

Would you fry light/brown the mince first or just bung it in the slow cooker, please? I've got the extra lean mince from Tesco to try.

Thanks to all for your reply's:) Ended up adding quark and some balsamic vinegar...bit grainy, but not so hot:o Think OH just pleased I've been in the kitchen:D

Hiya, I've made a simple pasta sauce using tinned tomatoes, mushrooms, peppers & onions. Thought it needed a bit of omphh so i stupidly added a bit too much chopped chilli... Now, I'm not normally found in the kitchen:rolleyes:, but is there anything I could use to bring the heat of the chilli...

Well, have 'ripped the plaster off' and been weighed. Better than what I thought, so ok. Class was great - don't know why we didn't stay before. So now to plan my first, new, fresh week. Dont cha just look new books?? = fresh start;)

Thanks - great thread :)

Wow, hope I can achieve what you have in 12 months:)

Hiya, just joined and thought I'd introduce myself:wavey: Not sure at the mo if I'm gonna try it alone or rejoin SW... I was made redundant in November and the cold/flu bug has hopefully just left our home. So, time to sort myself out;) Planning on dusting off the wii tomorrow and having a...
