Just made the egg fried rice. It's really tasty. I agree tho Jackie it does need to be eaten with something else. Stupid me mis read the rice instructions (I usually guess the measurements and it ends up sticking to the bottom of the pan) and ended up with enough rice for about 6 people lol!! My...

Ooh both of those sound lurvely! :D I've had the cous cous in my cupboard for so long but I've never really known what to do with it. I know people use it for alsorts but my imagination fails me when it comes to food like that, it just seems very bland to me!

I put ham, mushrooms, passata, garlic, red onion and mozzarella on. It was really lovely. Hubby went out for a carvery with his brother so I had the whole thing to myself! :D

Woo I did it! :clap:

So I made this a few weeks before I was able to post pictures (not enough posts!) I loved this its so tasty. Not like a normal pizza but still really good and not at all like 'diet' food! I'm going to attempt to post the pics but chances are I'll do something wrong lol!

Mmm that porridge sounds lovely, :drool: I'm not keen on porridge without lots of suger so I don't really make it but I might give that ago! Ouch those scales sound mean! Definately don't buy those!

You cook it with a tsp (or to taste) of chinese 5 spice. It's hard to explain, it's like a sweetish chinese sauce. It's definatly worth trying. You should have seen my hubbys face when I started pouring diet coke in the frying pan :giggle:

Hi Tilly. Glad you've had a good day. It's great when your enjoying the plan isn't it.:woohoo: Its so unlike a diet that sometimes I wonder why I struggle with it!

Thank you girls, I'm sure things will be ok, life throws things at you sometimes that you can't run away from. :sigh: I am enjoying my treat night though! xx

Just been to shop to buy lots of fruit! not had any really all week. Asdas got lots of fruit on offer this week if your interested. :) Going to treat myself tonight since its a Saturday night and I've not had a very good week due to personal reasons :( so I might go over my syns but I will be...

Yeh last time I saw him I was at my heaviest so I really hope I can look good when I go over, plus I know the weather will still be good so I want to be able to get some skin out!!:flirt2:

Hi Crumble, sorry I missed your post last night. Thanks for poping by! I think everyone has a particular vice when it comes to food or drink! When your young and your let loose all sense flies out the window and you go mad! At least we can do something about it ay! :o

Another day another dollar! Off to work today, not a bad day but I don't like working Saturdays. No plans for this evening so hopefully there won't be any naughty food temptations! Weekends are always the hardest don't you think? Plan for the day, no doubt it will change! Breakfast: Poached...

Yeh i'm going to America :D in September to see my Dad so I really want to lose as much as I can for then, partly because I will end up putting sooo much on whilst I'm there!

Hi jackieN, thanks for visiting, I do feel in a good place at the moment and I have some things coming up later in the year that I want to be slimmer for so thats a great incentive. I think im coming across as a raging alcoholic lol! :7834: :D

I know I just dont like lower syned alcohol! :cry: My pasta had lots of onions, mushrooms, chicken and bacon in so can I count the veg in that as part of my sf food? Im not very good at that part of the plan!

Hi Tilly, Thought I'd pop by since you came to my diary! :D Had a read through and some of your menus look very tasty, I love looking at what everyones having, I end up having the same thing everyday if I'm not careful. Hope you get your scale situation sorted soon, :( could you maybe use...

Scary but in a good, positive way! I love looking through everyones diaries. The support everyone gets is so encouraging. Even when people do fall off theres always someone to motivate them to get back on. x

EE day today. Breakfast 2 slices WM bread HEXb Eggs and Bacon w/ fat cut off just remembered I also had a clementine this morning I knew I was out working all day so I had a big breakfast to keep me going so I wasnt tempted to stop off at a shop for nibbles!:party0051: Lunch Nothing :(...

Hi, I too have just started my diary today. It is scary to think others are reading about your ups and downs but I think in the long run it will help keep us on the right track! Looks like you've set yourself some good atainable goals. Good luck with your new start, lets hope were both skinny...

Thank you, alcohol is definately my biggest downfall! ;) I do feel like I'm in the 'zone' at the mo, just hope it stays like that!

Hello!! :D So, I've decided to create my own weight loss diary. :o I've been putting it off for a while now but I think It will help me stay on track! So a little about me... My name is Hayley, I'm 27 and I live in East Yorkshire. I think I started putting weight on when I left...

Hi hunni, I agree with boo68. Just go get the weigh in over with and think positively about your next week. Ive had a few weeks recently where ive fallen off the bandwagon but I find coming on here and looking at recipes and peoples stories really can be motivational. You never know it might...

As hayles10 said you would not know it was coke! Im not a huge fan of coke but I luuuurrrved this! :D

:wow:OMG! Ive just made this tonight for tea. Just the standard way with the chinese spice and coke. It is deeeelicious!!! I would recommend this to everyone!! cant wait for my OH to try it!!

:wow:thats great!! Ive just had a look at the site and I wish I hadnt done my shopping already!! Thanks very much for this! :D

OMG :eek: you look amazing! Your almost unrecognizable!! well done girl, what a transformation :party0038:

Yeh i have thought about this shopping online. When you say price compare I presume you mean just in the one shop, you cant compare against other shops?

Thanx guys, some really helpful suggestions, I never shop in tesco but they sound like they might be a bit cheaper than asda for some stuff. Asda are doing the 3 meats for £10 so tescos would be better for that I think. Going to give them ago for my next shop. :D

mmm, this looks lovely going to have a go at this asap!!

wow you look fab, ive got around 3 stone to lose, seeing how good you look after losing 2 stone 7 i cant wait to see what i look like after 3!! well done you!

Hi all, I started back (again):sigh: at sw last week. I've lost 4lb in my first week so I'm really pleased. :D Im also new to this site and wish I'd found it ages ago as it's really helpful and motivating, and the recipe section is a godsend! I get so bored eating the same things! I think that's...

Lol not 4pm, 4lb! Stupid iPhone! X

Hi cherrybomb, I was the same as you. Always struggling to find an eating plan that was realistic. I tried weight watchers but I found the points system to restrictive so someone recommended slimming world. I totally love it, you can eat as much as you want, including pasta, rice, eggs, meat...
