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

Hellllooooooooooo, I am here. Eating my fried egg and SW chips as I type (in-between picking up both kids from school - sunday is a work day).
Pebbles what a horrible couple of people you have come across. Hard to shake that off but sounds like you have and what a way to get over it - all my favourite food on one plate - what a bargain. You know that people like that are probably so thick skinned that they go through life upsetting people and saying the wrong thing. Imagine being married to that !!! You come across on here as such a lovely and kind person and don't lose sight of the fact that they are ignorant, insensitive and small minded - none of which you are. We are all on this journey together and good you shared that experience with us so we can all keep each others motivation up. I live in a culture here where people often say exactly what they think. I have been told "you shouldn't wear that skirt - your legs are very heavy". Our office boy once said - "madam is very rich cos she is very fat" - I was mortified but he just couldn't see where he had gone wrong! I nearly said "go sort your BO out" - now I wish I had hee hee.

I am still on my green days - loving them. Can't believe 3 more full days until weigh in - where does time go. I worked out I am having about 7 - 8 syns a day - does that sound about right? Do you not normally have syns Tracy? Got panicky today when I saw there were no meringue nests in the shop - I think i have become addicted. Need to find another dessert that is low in syns. Got to have something sweet in the evening otherwise I might crack!

Hope all having a good weekend. x
 
Thank God there is life lol !!!!!
Good morning to you all :)

Pebs so sorry you was upset by them stupid people ,things like that can really bring you down.
How rude though,I would have reacted exactly the same as you, I wouldn't dare say that to someone.
Bloody idiots.
Glad Lauren has cheered you up,she sounds like a lovely girl.
am jealous of your shopping haul.but how lucky were you,I think you should invite us all round for dinner !!!!

Scoubylou it must be weird having the kids in school on a Sunday,but you sound like you are doing well food wise. I do have syns,but am not a chocolaty person that much so struggle at the end of the day to use them up,what stuffed me up yesterday was eating 4 fish fingers at 2 syns each,but didn't check the syns till after I'd eaten them !!!!!
Am off swimming in a bit with the two Littles,don't really like getting the body out,but there are people there bigger than me who don't seem to mind so neither do I !
Have a good day all xx

Scoobylou can you get firm tofu in Dubai ?
There is a dessert I used to make,you put a carton of tofu in blender with a sachet of chocolate highlights,some sweetner and some Vanillia essence,and blend till smooth,and the whole lot is just 2syns(for the sachet of hot choc powder),and it's like a chocolate pudding,I used to have strawberries with it.
I know pebs used to make this too xxx

Can't get over those rude ppl. Cheek of them!!

So glad ur daughter picked u up again. Sounds like uv done an amazing job with her :) Go pebs..

By marks, do u mean marks n spencer??? We hav that here... But we hav dunnes too :)

Great bargains n such a nutritious fab meal u made!!! Wish I liked seafood!!!
 
Ah thanks everyone that's so nice to have your support. I'm one of the good guys, never mean to upset anyone , do anything for anyone in need without a thought. I'm the one everyone takes advantage of. You think I'd learn at 46yrs but no, lol.
My best friend says my fault is I expect everyone to think and be like me but sadly they're not .

Anyway that's it til thurs and fri then I'm back there .
The meal was blooming gorgeous

Scoobes the plan is 5-15 syns a day in theory but there are variations to this. Some recommend doing a weekly syn total and find that works better for them especially if they know they are likely to go over on a particular day . So they total the daily syns over a week and count them down each day .

Personally I try to aim for 8-12 and some days don't use them much. Others I'm struggling for free foods as I'm too near the 15 mark . Depends what's going on really.trace rarely goes over 8.

I'm not a huge chocolate person but I do tend to have chocolatey snacks on sw to keep the sugar cravings at bay.

As far as sweet things go, yes I make the tofu pud, or I make low sugar jelly mixed with yogurt or fromage frais to make like a blancmange .
Also I make alot of scan bran cakes .can you get scan bran scoobe? I love the chocolate and coffee one with a bit of squirty cream and fruit.
My fruit batter pudding is nice if you haven't tried that.

Tracy you are Fabulous going swimming in this cold weather, I'm a swim on holiday only person .you can come to dinner anytime. We keep saying we will all meet up and we should really do it this year .
Where is everyone from and we will find a mid point or we could just all go to Ireland to see dubs n smurf or better still I vote Dubai !!!!
 
Thanks Tracey and Pebbles - can get tofu but highlights might be a challenge - will hunt around - it sounds just what I need. Going to crush up a chocolate orange club and a banana tonight - i know sounds gross but there is still a box of quality street hanging around and I have got to strop that craving while I finally get round to catching up on Corrie.

All welcome to Dubai - the more the merrier - although Dubchick I would love to come to Ireland. A brisk walk on a real beach and a nice warm pub and all that greenery. Can be over in 7 hours ;) on a direct flight !
 
Could do with some sun here have had non stop rain in the wonderful rain lately! I am still plodding along but feeling a bit out of sorts this week so even though I don't think I've been that bad I have a horrible feeling it won't show on Wednesday!

Don't let those horrible people get you down pebs you are doing so well!

I'm for Dubai as well !
I don't actually swim(because I can't !),but I do go in and float about alot !!!!
I'm all up for meeting up,I can come to London as hubby can drop me off and go visit his mum or something,it would be good if we could all make it,but I know dubs and smurfy are in Ireland ,and scoobylou will have to come via Skype maybe lol xx

Ok so Norwich, north Wales, Surrey, Ireland, Dubai , Tracy you're reasonably near me ?? Any ideas trace xx
I'm happy to travel anywhere

Went to harvester had refill diet Pepsis , had salad bar x2 trips and stuck to things on plan. I had 1/2 spit roast chicken, gave skin to Lauren had peas and salad, asked for plain jacket no butter but they'd run out and offered me fries so I asked them to do me boiled new potatoes. Had black coffee to round it off.
Just in the car now travelling back home .i have a b choice left so will maybe have some thing later . Xx

Hi,
I think I'm in for a challenging week food wise this week. It's my Birthday on Weds so cakes etc ahead! Hitting 43 so not getting any younger. I feel that this last year has been most challenging to keep in shape. Husband also suggesting Indian takeaway for dinner and out on Sat night for a meal with the kids as a midweek Birthday!
So I feel I need some good will power on the days inbetween especially as I had barely any loss last week.
Wish me luck as I really need at least 1lb this week.

Billy
 
I'll be 44 this year billybear,so you are not on your own lol !
Do you do ee,as that may be easier when you are eating out.
Whatever you do,have a lovely time :)
