Hi Michelle!

I'm a newbie! Signed up online last night and today was my (proper) start! Been doing some of the SW recipes for the past month, and for someone who didn't think they could cook (!), I've surprised myself and they have been delicious!!

I'm using 7 syns at the mo, sat drinking a glass of red wine!!

Hey Michelle,

I'm also doing SW from home, lost 6stone last year doing it n was off the wagon for a while but back on this week.

Alco pops are pretty bad, if memory serves me Blue WKD is 13.5 syns and Smirnoff ice is 9 syns. That's why I try to stick to vodka and diet coke lol!

Good luck

 

[michellem162]

Go you well done that's excellent . Oh really that high? Aw well I was driving and only had one so not alls lost and I avoided the buffet and won't be hungover tomorrow so it's been a good night lol x

 

[Dawnio87]

Aww that's not so bad then, and waking up hangover free is a huge bonus Happy days!

 

[michellem162]

Had a bad day yest so here's the diary:

B- grapes and banana

L- went out for a carvery lunch and had lentil soup, pakora and salad, turkey, chips, turnip,mushrooms,cabbage, Yorkshire pudding x2 and gravy, followed by choc fudge cake and cream

Mega syn overload scared to even kno how many it could be never had anything else after this and gna try and be syn free or very low syn till thur for damage control so fingers crossed

[Dawnio87]

Aw weekends are always tough Michelle. Especially at a carvery/buffet cos there's so many yummy temptations around.

Best thing is just draw a big line under it and today is a new day! Plus the start of a new week. You can do it

 

[michellem162]

[Dawnio87]

Aww I wouldn't be too hard in yourself Michelle! We all get those days, at least you still took skin off etc and made sensible choices instead of completely gorging (my usual style is all or nothing making damage limitation hard!)

You're brekkie sounds yum haven't had a hot breakfast in ages, I'm thinking a SW fry could be on the cards this Saturday mmmmmm
