Anyone else weigh at home on a thursday- wanna post?

[pebbles67]

I know what you mean kankles,I'm still off a lot of the food from slimming world, which is not the best thing when you are doing sw !!!
I'm a bit dishartened this week too,my weight seems to be taking ages to disapear !!
The only diet that gave me good results was rosemary conely, but it's so restrictive,as you have to weigh everything, but I am beginning to question if I should do something else ?! X

Right, your turn miss 831! I have found a website for you, a veggie inspiration. I'll have to post the link on my big pc cos can't do it on my iPod. It's full of veg recipes. I think your focus is to concentrate on fruit and veg intake and to plan a couple of days ahead if poss so you're not grabbing at whatever is about. God you need ' you time' and how difficult is that with all you have on your plate- near enough impossible! If I can do anything to help u plan tell me. If you tell me what's in your fridge /cupboards I don't mind helping you plan meals. X

Thanks pebs,will defo take a look at that site sounds good.I have changed what I'm eating so I'll see if that helps.
The thing is I have a cookbook libary but am just at a lost for new inspiration and it's a bit annoying !!!
My 11yr old is cooking dinner today,he is cooking be good to yourself sausages ,mash and cauliflower with gravy then he is doing cookie sandwiches for pud.
I haven't committed to either green or red today so don't know whether to have the sausages and veg( the sausages are 1.5 on red)or do green and have lots of mash and veg and a piece of chicken as me hex b, it would make more sense to do the last one.
Have also brought some more fruit so shall be chommping on that later too. x

 

[pebbles67]

I'd say go for a green and fill up on mash. I love that we can have potatoes, sweetcorn peas and beans on green cos I think having peas on a red is such waste of a b. Anyway, I was gonna say , I thought u were veggie that's why I've been banging on about veggie recipes and veggie websites . Lol

Hi girls, still having the lovely weather here, sadly im not feeling so lovely. I always do well up to my "ladies week" then it totally disables me with pain & cravings. Im so cross with myself! Had 2 great days wed & thurs, then without the structure of a work day (hols from fri til tues) i just gave in to the cravings. Havent ate today at all (feeling rough) so im gettin up now to make something on plan, mad eating has to stop today as i am not regaining my 8lbs & ive decided im going to do May 100% & see how i go.
Hope everybodys doing ok Megs x

Pmsl rofl lol lol lol- where the dickens did I get that from. Ok anyway, I've got a couple of money saving recipes. One is the old favourite -

blancmage/ jelly mousse whatever u wanna call it. Make up a sugar free jelly (60p for twinpack ) to half pint with boiling water, when cool Mix a tub of quark (70p) and pop into fridge. Lovely I've tried the strawberry , orange and raspberry. If you don't have quark use a couple of matching mullers. The mandarin with the orange jelly is nice. And both options are syn free.

Next recipe to follow

Hi ladies,

How's everyone doing?

We've had two of my boyfriends friends stay for the weekend, so i've been making food for everyone (and cakes - although i've kept away from them!) Stuck to plan yesterday and did my own little plate at the bbq, but at lunchtime today i had a white bread roll and 2 digestives, we had loads of bread left and i didnt want to buy brown and throw what we had away. Really hope i can pull it back and have a loss on thursday, please! even just a lb would be good. TOTM came this morning and now i'm really craving chocolate.

Stick at it everyone.

How's your son pebbles?

Tracy you sound like you have a lot to cope with without worrying about dieting, i hope you have a good weigh in this week

Hxx

 

[Tracy831]

another good website is the morrisons supermarket recipe link. easily adapt the recipes to fit in with sw.

you'll be fine, dont worry about it, move on to tomorrow, its when you carry on that the damage is caused.

 

[MissHP]

Thanks Pebbles, i know i shouldnt have but after entertaing guests all weekend i was just too lazy to make/cook anything, I could have had fruit but my IBS has been bad this evening so i didn't want to have anymore fruit today.

Extra good monday - thursday and fingers crossed i'll get a pound off.

Hxx

Evening everyone!

Well I went out for a meal, after eating Louisiana hot wings & cheesy nachos we went to watch a film at the cinema. We watched Arthur with Russell Brand & Helen Mirram and it was bloody brilliant. I laughed all the way through so I highly recommend this film if anyone has a trip planned to the cinema soon.

Pebbles on a completely different subject in preparation for me restarting on plan, I am thinking of trying out the odd green day as well as red. I thought about trying a cheesy pasta for a green day made up something like this:

71g Philadelphia light (hexb)
Onions
Mushrooms
42g Low Low cheese (hexa)
Pasta spirals

What do you think? I really enjoy pasta but don't like tomato based pasta sauces, if I have pasta, I normally have bolognaise sauce (very beefy) or creamy mushroom or cheese neither of which are SW friendly so if you have any nice pasta recipes hot or cold I'd love to try them out.
