I'm studying Sociology, it's not nearly as interesting as it sounds. Once i leave i want to train to be a chef.. So a completely different career path but it's what i'm really passionate about =)

I'm not sure why i'm trying green for a whole week, i just feel like i've ben far too much meat on EE so wanted a little detox haha

Can't say I find sociology very inthralling either & becoming a chef sounds fabulous. I like the nutrional aspect of food as well as cooking. X
 
Brilliant about OH, I think mine reached that point when we moved in together and he saw what I actually did eat rather than thinking I was denying myself. I've planned some red days for next week - would do one today but I want an EE fry up for brunch :)

Is the weather lovely where you are too? Gonna head to the pub this afternoon for an ice cold bottle of lager. I don't normally drink lager but when the sun is out, I really crave it! And it's lower in syns than wine lol.

What are everyone's plans for today? X

I think he's realising that I'm not depriving myself too. I met him for lunch today, we went to KFC - he had a snack box thingy, I had my HEB potato and HEA cheese. By the time I'd got there, the cheese had all melted, it was beautiful! I also took some SW cupcakes that I'd made, yum (I had two @ 2.5 syns each). We sat outside in the sun - it was gorgeous!

Well done Annie on being so restrained! Super proud of you :) hope you start to get your appetite back soon though.

Aww, thank you honey, means a lot that you're super proud :) My appetite is definitely starting to find me again - can't say I'm ravenous though. I guess my body is just getting used to eating less?

Morning girls.
Well done Annie on resisting the buffet, as thats hard to do, especially if there are lots of lovely nibbles!
I could resist the ameretto & coke to .....yuch! x

Tastes like Dr Pepper! Yum!

I've got some chicken marinating in the SW KFC mixture (I did kind of fancy it after OH had it today, but it's on my terms lol), I won't be putting the breadcrumbs on though as I've had ALL my HEx's today!!!! Can you believe it?! Haha :) I've made a big salad as well and will be having a mini bbq with a diet coke on ice and Heat magazine - shame I've got no-one to share it all with!

xx

PS: Bought a butternut squash today - what the hell do I do with it?!
 
BNS is lush....just chop it up into little cubes, spray with frylight, sprinkle some sweetener over & cook in the oven until all caramalised.
Well done on not being tempted by the KFC, cant say Ive ever had it?! x
 
Ok ladies as promised I took a photo of myself. The ones she took won't be ready until Friday so this is a non professional one!

Mmmm looks lovely. We have just had shepherds pie which I would like to say my OH cooked but I made it before I went out!

Looks yummy! Was planning on having roast chicken dinner but roasted the chicken and had it with salad instead :)
 
Mmm it was delicious! And only have used about 4 syns all day so looking forward to possibly an ice cream later!
 
I feel like I've eaten a bucketload today, but only had a fry up for brunch and chicken salad for dinner. I think it's because both meals were large and been super full after each!
 
For a comparison here's a photo from my sisters prom last year. I'm a size 16 here. The corset I wore today was a 26 inch one :-D i'm the blonde one.

Wow! What a difference :)

Dud you feel good at the shoot?
 
My gran came to visit today - and she'd clearly been talking to my mu has she started with the whole "you're not going to lose any more weight are you? You told me your target was 9 stone" malarky. I know she cares about me, but they seem to have the impression that I starve myself or live on lettuce or something. She was telling me how I should eat dairy, some fats and vegetables - and I explained to her that you HAVE to have dairy, fibre and meat every day! I hope by the end of our discussion that she realised Slimming World is about eating healthily for life rather than a quick fix and being super strict with what goes in my mouth. Some people seem to think that because I'm not overweight but I'm still losing weight that I must be cutting something out of my diet - but I'm very happy with the way SW makes me eat - and it's something I can imagine doing in the future. It's a normal, healthy way of eating and I hope my mum and gran realise that soon before I go crazy with all the nagging! Rant over!
