Thank you Ali :) I know you are right, I just miss the cakes and chocolate and ice cream and all the rest of the junk! I don't know why because I know it makes me feel crap when I eat it. I'll be fine though, I'm still on plan just resenting it a bit and I don't want to because I know its good...

I haven't been online this week as we had a last minute decision to go and stay with OH's parents as his band had a gig local to where they live, I managed to stay mostly on plan but did go over my syns on a couple of days and unfortunately didn't have 1/3 superfree at every meal although I did...

Thanks Ali, I do feel crap for it and definately realising now how good SW's been for me after eating junk for one afternoon and realising how sluggish it made me feel. Definately in no hurry to binge again! xxx

Well.... I didn't manage to get online yesterday but I am not going to post my diary anyway, it was a bad day- my first day where things have gone wrong since starting SW. I was sort of expecting to go a little over my syns (went to Mum's - I cooked a SW friendly lunch but knew there would be...

You look amazing, like a totally different person in fact! Well done!

Saturday!!! It's been a busy one but lovely, we've been to OH's parent's for dinner and bless his Mum she made us a really yummy chicken dinner but annoyingly it is what I'm cooking for my family tomorrow so we'll be having the same meal twice on the trot! lol! It doesn't matter though because...

Well, I can hardly believe I am typing this but I have just weighed in and have lost 5lb!!!!!!!!!!!! I am soooooooooo chuffed because I really don't feel like I have lost that much, I honestly was expecting to get on the scales and be the same as last week or even have gained a lb or so...

Thank you for the support ladies, it's very encouraging! Fingers crossed for a good result tomorrow, although I am still feeling bloated today but its this silly * I think! Todays diary: BF: 2 x weetabix (HEXb), 175ml skimmed milk (1/2 HEXa), strawberries, banana Lunch: Pasta, tuna...

Well done!!! You are definately allowed to gloat, shout it from the roof tops! Congrats! x

I feel a bit deflated today..or rather inflated. I just feel fat, I know I am fat but what I mean is I don't feel like I've lost any weight this week, in fact I feel like I've put some on... it's weigh in on Friday but its * week for me so its probably that making me feel all bloated. I don't...

Well done, what a fab start! x

Thanks HolidayGirl. It's the first time I've tried making it like that and I was so pleased with how it came out, I won't go back to the old cottage pie now! Todays diary: BF: 2 x weetabix (HEXb), 175ml Skimmed milk (1/2 HEXa) Strawberries, banana Lunch: SW Quiche with bacon, mushrooms...

Haha Ali, I'm sure your cooking is just fine! I am full to bursting- just had a really yummy dinner, I made it yesterday so we just had to reheat it and do some extra veggies today when we got home from work. I did a cottage pie but with a difference, did the potatoes sliced instead of mashed...

I thought I'd post a few piccies of some the meals we've been having- I've been taking photo's for my Mum who is gob-smacked that we are eating real food and loosing so much weight so thought it might be nice to add them to my diary. Sweet and Sour Pork Shanks (from Aldi) Mahoosive Brunch...

Thanks Ali, I'm really good at planning during the week but at the weekends I'm not so organised as we don't always know where we are going to be and when but you are right, I guess I just got to keep the planning up at the weekends too. Well today has been a real foody day. I made a quiche for...

Thank you for your replies. We've just had it for dinner and it was lush, although next time we will try to roll the base a bit thinner and probably add more passata or puree. It was nice though and I think it will be a good one to take to work for lunch so it's good to know it can be prepared...

Happy Saturday Everyone! I love Saturdays- best day of the week by far! We tried the smash pizza thing tonight, it was really nice but we need to tweak it a little bit next time we make it to make it ever nicer. My diary for today: BF: 2 x ww bread toasted (HEXb), 2tsp flora light (2syns)...

Morning ladies and gents I've got a quick question about the smash pizza, I've never made one before but fancy giving it ago. I was wondering if I can make it in advance and re-heat it when we're ready to eat it. Or even just make and bake the base in advance and then just put the topping on...

Thank you ladies! I am so over the moon, and 90% of the time I am loving following the plan and eating all the tasty meals and I feel much less bloated and less sluggish too! Apart from being blocked up and snotty for most of the week but thats passing now thank goodness! Today has been...

OMG! Just weighed in for this week and....another 7lb's off! I'm so pleased, that has given me the boost I needed to make me face work today. Will post my food diary later as I haven't eaten anything yet! xxx

Thanks ladies. alfsmummy- I would probably have had some if we had any in but there isn't anything naughty in the house, we're deliberately not buying it in because we'd eat it! Ali- thanks hun, I'll be ok- it's friday tomorrow so I can forget about work for 2 days, just 9 more hours of hell...

I've had a horrible day at work today to the point where I could actually cry, normally when I feel down like this or stressed out, I have some chocolate or ice cream but obviously can't so I'm just left feeling crap now:cry: Sorry- moan over. Todays diary: BF: Natural Yoghurt with banana...

Monday 21st March Booooo, I'm not feeling well today. I had a bit of a sniffle yesterday but today I feel dreadful- blocked up nose, sore throat, horrible cough etc etc! I'm sure this isn't right, I start eating healthily and then get poorley! Grrr, anyway sorrry- moan over! Todays diary: BF...

I'm only just into the second week of the plan but so far we have planned our meals. I don't think we could financially afford to do SW if we didn't as we'd have to buy more food just incase we need it because we decide we want to have xxxx for dinner one night, by planning the meals we just buy...

I signed up for SW online just over a week ago and so far so good for me. The EE plan is explained and there are PDF files for lists of free foods, healthy extras and syn values so you can print them off, we've printed them and put them in a little file for us to have as a quick reference...

Thank you Ali- I think the scales got water in them when my OH was in the shower because the screen kinda looked bubbly but we've got the new ones now so next weeks WI will be accurate. Thank you for commenting on my meals, its reassuring that more experienced members think my meals are ok- I...

Don't worry, draw a line under it- forget it and jump straight back on tomorrow! xxx

Well done you! I've made SW quiche today too, there must be something in the air! In fact, I made two because my Mum (who isn't doing SW by the way) has decided that it looks too nice and she must try it too so going to deliver it to her in a bit in exchange for my Sunday dinner- lol! xx

Thanks Ronnie :) I know its free, I just find it bloats me up a bit but your right- it feels like a treat doesn't it when really it's not. x

Today: BF: 2 rashers lean bacon, chopped tomatoes, mushrooms, 2 scrambled eggs, 2 x WW bread (hexB) Lunch: 2 egg omlette with 3 x laughing cow cheese (HexA) and ham, some smash, 1tpsn ketchup (1 syn) banana, vanilla muller light. (VERY RUBBISH LUNCH I KNOW!) Dinner: (Going to Mum's for...

My first full weekend on SW and it has been a tricky one because we have been to PIL2B's so had to rely on somebody else cooking but it has been ok. Although I know I haven't had anywhere near the amount of superfree I should have been having- something to work on next weekend definately as we...

Sorry for not replying- I totally forgot I'd started this thread- this minimins malarky is taking some getting used too! Debridger-I'll have to give the cocoa and sweetener I try- thank you! Minimunchkins- I do like rice pudding yes but wouldn't have a clue where to start making it, maybe I'll...

Omg! Can't believe I forgot to put my weigh in result in. Right, this is a bit of a long story but basically my scales broke mid-week so I've had to have a new set which I think are saying I'm lighter than my old ones. So this week my weigh in might be slightly inaccurate but now I've got...

Thank you smileyjo and holidaygirl. holidaygirl- haha! I may be organised now but its only my first week- the novelty may well wear off but hopefully not! I know what you mean about hubby making your coffee, my partner makes tea much better than me too! Right today's diary: BF: 2 poached eggs...

Ooops, sorry- this has had to be moved- I'm sorry, I didn't even see that there was a HEX board. Thank you large lump, its good to know that you use your milk as a drink too!

Thank you Crys. I have been putting cheese on things just for the sake of using up my hexA when I haven't really fancied it so having a cup of warm milk before bed will be a good way of using it up- I love a nice warm drink at bedtime. Thank you! xxx

Just a quick question, I have asked this in my food diary but I don't think anybody is reading it :o so anyway.. If I don't have any milk or cheese in my meals throughout the day, is it ok to use my hexA by having a glass of milk or a cup of warm milk before bed? I'm doing EE if that makes any...

Was just wondering about HEXA's. If I don't have any cheese or milk in my meals for the day, am I ok to use my HEXA by just having a glass of milk or a cup of warm milk before bed? xxx

Hiya This is only our first week but so far my partner is enjoying his lunches better than his usual rounds of sarnies! He has taken cold pasta with ham and lots of veggies, mustard stirred in. He's also had SW quiche and cold new potatoes which he said was his fave! (mine too I must add)...

Sweet things Hi ladies and gents I hope I'm posting in the right place. I'm new to SW (3rd day) and so far I'm loving it however I must admit to be missing sweet things, I'm sitting here now thinking I could just eat some jaffa cakes or choc digestives (not that we have any in the house) but...

We had Tesco value golden vegetable rice which was surprisingly yummy for 28p!!! We had it with some cod fillets and green beans and a dash of light soy sauce on the fish to give it some oomph. x

Ok so day 3 and still going well although have been back at work today and I work in a nursery where the children have delicious things such as chocolate krispies cakes and garlic bread which I would normally help myself to as we are encouraged to eat with the children. But I resisted..god knows...

Aww, thanks so much everybody! I don't seem to be able to keep up with the forum, its very busy! lol! I only come online for an hour or so each day but I'll do my best to keep up and participate where I can. Thanks again for the lovely welcomes. xxx

Thank you for the lovely welcomes! Day 2 is almost over and so far so good- I am liking the different foods and feel pretty satisfied. Devon Dumpling- It's good to know I'm not the only bride to be who is refraining from trying dresses on. I don't want to be at target for our wedding (that...

We're having spag bol tonight, I think I'm going to miss having garlic bread though! x

I have just joined Mini Mins and Slimming World Online so thought posting a food diary would be a brilliant way of keeping on track and also getting all of you experienced slimming worlder's advice and comments on my eating habits- hopefully if I'm doing anything wrong or could improve anything...

Hi :) My names Tracey and I'm new to MiniMins and to SW so thought I would just introduce myself as I'm sure I'm going to have lots of questions. Basically I have always battled with my weight and have always yo-yo dieted at home but never really succeeded but now after stepping on the scales...
