Looks nice. Hope your knees held up! You should start a body magic award or do a body magic challenge. The challenge is great. You have a little 'you' that walks along routes like 'around the Olympic stadium'. It's great to say 'in the last 2 months I walked the equivalent of wandering around lake Garda'!!

Been a busy old day really. Went for a walk, stopped by the charity shop and bought two old cookbooks for 60p each BARGAIN!
The pizza burger idea didn't quite work out well actually I just didn't do it in the end thinking that amount of stuff on one burger bun might be too much and it may all turn to mush. Anyhoo..
...this was tea and is was delicious, REALLY enjoyed by all, clean plates again.
A whole meal bun (hexB) with 1 tsp of BBQ ketchup (1syn) and 1 tsp of extra light mayo (1 syn) with lettuce and sliced tomato all on top of a southern style quorn burger (2.5 syns) with 40g reduced fat cheddar (hexA) squished somewhere in the bun. I baked onions in the same tray I did the SW wedges. It was the best tea I've had in ages and worth every syn. A bit more painting tonight for hubbs and not much else going on, the excitement is too much to bear
Hope you're all having a good Tuesday.

Oh! That sounds interesting where would I find out about that?
Your food always looks so good - I couldn't eat so early though I'd be stuffing my face by 10 - but it's so much better for weight loss!
Go to the sw site and log in. Go to 'my weight loss tools' and then to 'body magic challenge'. Should be clear after that. You basically choose which to do and then fill in every walk you do. I loved it. Did lake Garda and am now very slooooooooowly doing lands end to John o groats!

I think I will sign up for the English Channel challenge
will just have to workout my miles in km and will have to build up to an hour at a time because it doesn't give you the option for doing just 20 minutes like I do at the moment. To be honest I would have my dinner later too but OH is home normally dead on 5.15pm and the kids are mooching in the kitchen from when they get home at 3.15pm so they're all mithering about food even if its 15 mins late. I would eat mine later on my own but we all sit and eat together and they'd be like :O if I tried not eating with them lol..
I'll probably have a couple of pieces of fruit about 8-ish I've already had a Greek yogurt and that'll be it for me...I don't scrimp on my portion sizes so don't tend to have much else after meals unless I'm trying to get some superspeed down me.

English Channel is a good 'un. You should be able to put in minutes - I did. It's written hh:mm so 01:25 for 1 hr 25. I've put 00:15 in before! It's best to have dins early - miles better for loss.

An eventful morning - daughter woke up feeling hot and sick, took the dressing off her toe (she had an op on it a week ago) and saw it was inflamed and snotty. She's been saying it was hurting for a few days and yesterday she was in a mood complaining of being sick - I didn't think nothing of it thinking she was trying to get out of today's school church service. But apparently not, thankfully the doc agreed to see her......her toe is infected her temperature is up and that's why she's been feeling sick <put guilty feeling mum face here>. So she's going to be off school now for at least a week and considering the Easter school holidays are upon us in the next few days so that equates to 2-3 weeks off depending on the healing progress.
So armed with antibiotics and wound wash let's hope it sorts it sooner rather than later.
Anyway all my plans have gone out the window now. My GBFF is taking his driving test today and I promised him a liquid lunch no matter what the outcome, but he will have to make do with a few glasses of wine before the cinema tonight.
I also planned a walk (because I'm now walking across the English Channel don't cha know!) and was going to have a mooch round the polish outside market and off course the charity shops for some books - but I will have to do that when she's much better.
So anyhoo here's the grub plan for today:
Breakfast: coffee (hexA) banana and apple.
Lunch: its either going to be homemade soup with a wholemeal roll (hexB) with laughing cow cheese (hexA) or SW wedges mushy peas, baked onion and gravy (2 syns) because that's my girls favourite lunch lol.
Dinner: cauliflower and quorn curry with rice and wedges.
I will have one healthy extra left so might use that for milk for a creamy hot choc (2 syns) tonight before bed.
I'm planning to take a fruit salad and a couple of packets of happy snax (1.5 syns for a 10g pack) to the cinema and just buy a bucket of diet Pepsi while I'm there. Of course J will have nacho's and pick and mix and wine and popcorn and he's still only 10 stone wet-through grrrrr!
Okay peeps shall post the usual pics and shall catch up with you all later
Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Hiya Lisa,
I've got as far as page 6. Those flipping meds and side effects ;( My son and SIL are on quitiapin (sp?) Horrible horrible drug. Apparantly diabetes is a real secondary issue that comes up for many people on these sort of meds. My dh was prescribed the Q stuff but won't take it as he is so spaced out on it, my boy reckongs it really gets in the way of him doing stuff but that it hasn't helped his head at all. but mood altering drugs are so subtle, I wouldn't say that is necessarily true.
Anyway, just wanted to say that I have an inking of what you are going through from being around family members taking that sort of thing and having a recent stint of heavy duty opiates for pain. Mind you, at first I lost weight on them until I got used to them and stopped throwing up. I hate the spaced out not being able to focus feeling. It takes a very different mindset to be a junky I reckon. I had them intaveinously last year too and that was HORRID. But the pain relief was nice.
Hope you are doing better now, I'll carry on reading and catch up you year later, gotta go and do some more mumming.

Awwww bless you for struggling through and giving it a read - its good for insomnia
I saw sense 6 weeks ago and took all of my meds back to the pharmacy to dispose of. It's took me quite a good few weeks to learn to deal with the anxiety again because its no longer numbed and fudged round the edges by medication. I feel better for it...LOTS better! the only downside is the physical effects of my anxiety - the palpitations that make me feel like I've run done a minute mile and now I'm having the heart attack or the sticking feeling I get in my throat most days that I convince myself I've got Oesophageal cancer, but saying that I'm in a much better place now than what I was then...getting out and about and being sociable and keeping stuff in perspective lol

So din-dins was this!....
It might look like a plate of slop but it was absolutely delicious!. SW wedges with baked onions, mushy peas and veg gravy with a bread roll was the absolute dogs nads! And all for 2 syns!....I'd even go has far to say that I could actually just eat a plate of baked onions they were so good - and a superspeed food I think so after the cinema tonight considering Asda is next door I shall be calling in to get a huge bag of onions and might even have onions and eggs tomorrow...yep...weird!

I should be doing other stuff but today the lure of Minimins is stronger than the lure of dealing with the family. Do you know this thread full of sweet SW friendly yummities?

Tonight's curry was just not happening! I made 2 one of which was ridiculously hot and the other one was mild and creamy but too many syns....I was just not feeling it at all. I would normally freeze some and try and tweak it next time but its all gone in the bin. The wedges and rice where lovely though lol.
I went for an old bag nap this afternoon, something I've not done since my medication days. I must've of needed it because I went flat out for over an hour and had a fantastic dream of getting weighed at class on Friday and the scales saying I'd lost 19lbs in a week lol :O anyway when woke up I felt even more tired than I did before and it's just not lifted since so I've cancelled tonight's cinema trip and have had a soak in a lovely hot bath full of the body shops tangerine wash. So I'm sitting in my p.j's feeling all vague and out of sorts. So I think it's a few cups of tea and an early night.
Hope you've all had a lovely Wednesday and I'll catch you tomorrow.

Sounds like you need a chilling night. Bummer about the curries. Hate it when that happens. What a FAB dream! Can you imagine??!!! Actually I'd be at the gp worried I was ill. Typical of me! I have always had this fantasy ( no not the dave gahan cheeseboard) that I would have to go to the Caribbean for four months to work (1stly would have to fly which I've not done for 20 years and 2ndly the job involved me being by the beach a lot). I'd be in a bikini all day from 8 til 8 so got really tanned. My job involved me getting very fit and I also lost lots of weight. 4 months on home I fly - 4 stone lighter tanned and buff!!! My hair is in a lovely wavy tousled beachbummy style, lightened by the sun and everyone doesn't recognise me at first. Haha I am a dreamer! I will do part of it but just not in Caribbean, and pale and pasty not tanned. Oh and in 12 months not 4 but I love that dream!!!
Hope you're feeling a bit perkier . Get lots of lovely kip and very sweet dreams xx

Rough night. Sally in agony with her foot, the wound wash made her cry (and she's hard has nails) so antibiotics for a week - but she's got a raging temp. Sam is also off school feeling sick and having certain 'man' problems which probably also need antibiotics, but couldn't get him in the docs this morning and I have to be at class for 9.15am in the morning and have to stay until its finished which is normally about 12.30/1pm else I don't get the class free. So hope I don't get a snotty receptionist and she can get me an afternoon appointment tomorrow.
I know I sound selfish and I know my boy is unwell but I NEED to go to class EVERY week to keep me on track. I also need to hand his science BTEC course work in tomorrow has its the cut off day and he's not well enough to do it himself.
Sally wants to come to class with me tomorrow morning but she takes ages to walk because of her foot and its a good 15 minute walk anyway and then all the walking afterwards and I don't know whether she'll manage it....my heads a bit like arrrrrrggggghhhhhgghhhh!!!!
So anyhoo...
Breakfast: coffee by the bucket load.
Lunch: the last bit of sweet potato and carrot soup with a wholemeal roll with laughing cow cheese and salad.
Dinner: Im planning on making the SW cheese and onion pastry-less pie and hope it don't look like the slop I made last Friday. Gonna have beans and baked potato with it.
Will post a pic and recipe if it turns out semi-decent.
Soooo.....weigh in tomorrow! Hubbs has predicted my weight loss spot on every single week so he's predicted a 2lb loss tomorrow which will be brilliant meaning my first stone could be achievable within the next 2 weeks at 1.5 lbs a week!!!! but I don't wanna count my chickens..but it would be amazing to be a stone down within 6 weeks.
Right off to feed and water the invalids and the furbabies.
Oh thought you might like to see a pic of 3 of my babies. Kitty and Rosie are obviously upto no good elsewhere lol. So front is Ruby middle is Dennis and back is Daisy.
