Thanks Val & Lisa x
Weigh in went well as I lost 4lbs
. Most unheard of for me, but there were some mitigating circumstances ... I had my unexpected gain last week which was put right, but also I barely ate anything on the day before weigh in as I was stressing and I can't eat when I'm stressing. So I think I was unusually 'empty' by thursday morning iyswim which gave me a boost. So, as long as I remember to starve myself next wednesday too I'll be fine!
On the plus side, I'll take the loss with open arms as it nets me my 42kg / 6.5 stone award and puts me at (just) under 80kg. So hooray!
Wednesday was like this:
B: none
L: pasta with veg and part hexa of cheese. Nectarines. Yogurt.
D: Root vegetable casserole and brown rice.
Thursday:
Back to normal (not stressing so much!)
B: Pear, banana, nectarines, pineapple, yogurt
L: Savoury rice with lots of extra veg. Yogurt.
Snack: Toast (hexb) with flora & honey (2)
D: Pasta bake (hexa)
Will probably have something else synful or healthy (extra) later.
BTW Lisa - my coleslaw is about the same. I either use fromage frais (for syn-free!), ex light salad cream or mayo mixed in with cabbage (white or red if I'm being adventurous!), carrots & onion. I've never added paprika though - that sounds like a good idea. I would really begrudge the syns on a shop bought coleslaw as I think this is much better. It is a bit of a ball ache chopping it all up though. Every time I do it I think of SS and her little mini chopper and think I should get one!

Aw thanks for your kind words everyone, it's so nice to have the support on here!
I have, however, been busy undoing all my hard work this weekend as it's been my daughter's birthday. I've had a party for her friends, a party for family and a trip to Disney on Ice and have generally relaxed a bit this weekend without going OTT. We had a pizza party and I had about 3 slices and stuff like pasta and cous cous salads (from pots! syns!!) and I had a little bit of birthday cake (more syns!)
Generally I was pretty pleased with myself though as I kept a certain degree of control, didn't go on a mega binge just had a 'normal life' weekend and am back on it today. Oops, just remembered that after having 14 of her friends to a party and them all being soooooo excited and loud that I had 3 very large bacardi's when I got home (15 syns - yikes) By that stage though, it was virtually medicinal, I was a wreck. Please remind me at this time next year - no parties.

Week 80 !
Monday:
B: Banana, melon, yogurt, Crunchy Bran (hexb)
L: Savoury rice with extra veg. Yogurt
D: Using up left overs, made a weird concoction - dairylea blue cheese squares (hexa), quorn ham, mushrooms, onions, linguine, sprinkle of parmesan. It was like a really rubbish carbonara. Not totally gross, but I wouldn't particularly recommend it!
Tuesday:
B: Banana, melon,kiwi, orange, yogurt
L: Savoury rice, beans, veg, cheese (hexa). Yogurt.
D: Another weird concoction - chickpea, sweet potato and carrot cajun-y, moroccan-y stew with rice. Basically chopped the veg, simmered in pasata and spices. It was ok, probably better than the pasta.
I haven't had a hexb yet, may get an oaty bar in a minute with a highlights. I've got a stinking cold and feel the need for a bit of tlc.
I'm using stuff up as I'm away until the weekend now - visiting the inlaws in a holiday cottage on the south coast. I'm hoping to stay mostly on plan and am armed with mugshots, alpens, pasta and sauce etc. I think I may weigh in tomorrow morning a day early, otherwise I'll miss it this week. Guess that may be preferable if my weekend has caught up with me though!

Thanks Val x I'm still by the seaside and clinging to plan by a thread. The days have been fine, nights more of a challenge as there has been a Chinese takeaway and I've just got back from a Beefeater where I accidentally ordered nachos rather than melon. Oops. Am not expecting great things from weigh in next week!
I stayed the same this week which is good considering the party last week. Roll on next week so I can get back to normal!
In more positive news, I bought some new jeans in a 14 and they fit! Granted they're quite stretchy but I can do them up without lying down and i can also move about in them. I also have to take back a 16 top as it's too big - hooray! Now for gawds sake get me back on that wagon before it all goes wrong and nothing fits me again!

That's what I thought, it could happen to anyone I don't feel too bad as I was so pure during the days I didn't think it would tip me too far over the edge.
So, I'm back to it now and don't have too many big events pending that will scupper me too much. Today has been:
B: Fruit & Fibre (hexb), yogurt, banana, frozen berries
L: Jacket potato, beans, cheese (hexa). Satsumas. Yogurt
D: Chickpea dahl and extra veg with rice
Highlights (2), Oaty bar (hexb)

Ah computer problems are scuppering my attempts to keep up with my diary!
Its working at the moment so here goes:
Thursday:
B: Orange, apple, grapes, banana, pineapple, yogurt
L: Eggy bread (hexb), ketchup (1), Mugshot (1), yogurt, chocolate (1)
Snack: babybel (hexa) and grapes
D: Quorn and veg stirfry with noodles
2x alpens
Friday:
B: Yogurt, orange, banana, grapes, mango, branflakes (hexb)
L: Jacket potato and cottage cheese. Yogurt. Chocolate (2)
Snack: pasta pot (cottage cheese just does no do it for me at lunch time - flipping starving!)
D: Spag bol, parmesan (half hexa), yogurt.
I've had a very good week so far, only used 14 syns so have a few in the bank for the weekend. I'm off to the Harvester for lunch today which will be ok - Jambalaya stack and salad bar and will have a few nibbly bits this evening with fireworks at home. That's assuming I can get some fireworks ... do you think there will be any left in Sainsbury's this morning?! I'm going to be in big trouble if not!
