Had to edit my menu above to add stewed apple and custard. (num num) . I normally have lunch around 1pm as I have my breakfast at 7.30am . The kids get home around 5pm and at this stage I am hungry and if I dont eat I will binge . Hubbie is often late home from work 8pm so I like to wait for him for dinner but its too long from 1pm . I realised today that this is my dangerous time so the stewed apple is lovely and hot,sweet and really filling. (keeps me away from picking the kids dinners and goodies )
 
ooh good idea with the stewed apple and custard, just before dinner seems to be a "danger" time for me to! I think I might try and eat some fruit then too!

Glad you got your BMI thing sorted, do you know I hadn't even noticed your BMI came up on the stats at the side, ha shows how much attention I pay x
 
Ya CC I love stewed apple or anything with apples i.e apple tart,apple slices ,apple turnovers etc . I cannot resist any kind of apple pastry or apple crumble yumyum :sigh:, but obviously I want to avoid those now so the hot stewed apple with warm custard(low fat-pot) is lush . I suppose I cant over do it though but now and again . I have to build in something at that time though around4-5 pm or Ill go feral on the bickies or something :(




aaaaaahh have to stop eating now .had bag of walkers now !!!!!!!!!! look at all those points on snacks !!!

Food looks good! Enjoy your wines if you have them and don't feel guilty.. that's what weekends are for! Hope you have a nice night x
 
True CC but as it happens anyway we are not going now. Just had dinner and weighed out my rice (100g) It looked miserable so I upped it to 150g = 6pp . Have weeklies left anyway. I love this program . It must be the easiest to work in to your life ever.:D
 
I think that's what makes it so successful for people because its not at all restrictive and if you change plans at the last minute its fine! Hope you enjoy the rest of your weekend! x

the wraps and stirfry sound nice! Im going to have to do stirfry soon. Good luck for weigh-in tomorrow. do you weigh in the day or evening? xxx
 
My class is 10.30 am which i like!!!!!

Just had stirfry and it was yum !! . 2 tbsp of the sweet chilli sauce was plenty . I just threw it in at the end .stirred for a min and straight to plate . I am stuffed and I didnt even have any rice or noodles or anything I just didnt feel like cooking them :eek:. It took about 5 mins.

I am nervous about tomorrow . I just dont feel like I have lost weight . My bathroom scales is ancient and could be 1/2 stone off at any time !! . well if I see any minus i will be happy.
 
Hi Breda, just got a chance to visit your diary. Continued success, you seem to be flying along, and keeping inside the daily points. Your menu is far more varied than mine. I'm intruiged...What brown bread do you eat? Is it the WW sliced pan, or REAL soda bread eg McCambridges sliced soda.

I bought a fresh superValu soda out of habit the other day, after being over 2 weeks off bread. I love it with strawberry jam, of course I cut Man Sized slices, but I'b love to know how to PP Soda Bread.

Looks like you succeeded where I failed on the Stir fry front, good for you. By what I understand from your post, you just fried off your veg for 5 mins after the meat had browned, then flashed in the chilli sauce for the last minute or so? I'm determined to get this right, my first two attempts were dismal. :D:D:D

Glad you got your Ticker & BMI up & running. They're great reminders of the progress we are making.

Best of luck with the weigh in,

CT
 
Hi Brenda

Good luck for your WI 2moro, I'm sure you'll do fine! Food for today looked good, stirfry yum! X
 
Michillenwoman -just noticed your post and desp for advice -I too am a refined sugar junkie with more than I care to admit to lose:break_diet::553:
how do you even start????
my mojo has done a bunk:sigh::sigh::sigh: too
 
Hi celtic tiger . I have a loaf of WW bread in the freezer that I can take two slices out and toast and whenever I feel like a cheese toastie with (babybel light) and then thats only 3 points. At weekend mornings I love the mccambridge with a boiled egg (or two) but for sandwiches Id sometimes use the brennans wholemeal sliced. It depends on what I am having . I find the WW bread a bit light and small for sandwiches but its up to yourself really.The Mccambridge has no sugar or yeast which means you wont crave it as much as an ordinary soda.. In the old program we used to say 30g(1oz) of any bread was 1 point so that is probably 2 pp (weigh your slice and see how much it is --might put you off fairly fast :D:D

The stir fry I did this evening is really easy . chop chicken breast(s) peppers,red onion mushrooms (Whatever veg you want) . Put one tsp olive oil on the pan(Wok) fry(chicken) until slightly brown on edges over very high heat stirring all the time . 2-3 mins. Add veg .. stirring all the time for another 3-4mins approx.
taste veg I like mine slightly crunchy (not soggy soft) . Add 2 tablespoons of sweet chilly sauce stir in for about a min and serve. I think the secret is not to let it on too long ,high heat and constant stirring. Dont cover .
 
Hi Mazie6

Its a curse this sugar addiction and I have tried many things to fight it over the years. I even went on an anti-candida diet for months but couldnt stick it out (really restrictive).

At the moment i am feeling my way with this and trying to have only one real sugary treat a day with my late night cup of tea as I am going to bed then and cant binge.During the day I try to limit myself to yogurts and fruit and once I know I can have my treat later i can work with that. I personally find if i eat sugar early in the day I crave it for the rest of the day . If I start my day with a good breakfast like porridge or boiled egg and 2 slices Mccambridge bread ,i dont crave sugary things.

Its something you will have to feel your way with . With sugar I always find the more i have the more i want, so try to keep it to a minimum . cut it down slowly finding snacks you like other than bars and bickies. Eat well at your three meals with a protein at each meal to fill you up. Thats actually really important for sugar bingers . AND there is always the day for us women that we cant get enough chocolate in (before you know what) . I just go with it now ,have a few extra treats that day and be extra good the days after. no good beating ourselves up over hormones we cant control .Talk to me any time maisie . I love posting andreading other peoples posts
