Everyday's a SW day :) x

well done to your sis hun! its hard sometimes to take that first leap, so hopefully for her this is the start of a new her.
Hope your feeling a bite better about all you time spent cooking etc!
hope your feeling more positive about a day on plan! i think monday is a poo day to weigh sometimes, if youve had a a heavy weekend, you might get a false reading. Did you say you weigh at tesco, or is that a one off?
xx
 
Hey chick!

I remember you making egg wraps a while back- are they literally a rolled up omelette? X

yep, just a thin one :)
i just whisk 2 eggs and put them in the frying pan, flip them and that's it. when i say flip....i mean put a plate over the top then put it back in to cook the other side lol

made one earlier for tomorrow to have a work...easy peasy :) x

there's nothing she hasn't tried over the years but i think her issues are much deeper than just greed if you get me....it's a shame...i know how life changing it would be for her and how people would treat her differently...sad but true eh! :(
but yeah, i hope so too.

weighed at tesco and yeah, i'm feeling ok thanks. didn't cook too much but all prepared for tomorrow so that's good :)
totally agree re weighing on a monday! maybe a mid week one would be better...but it's awkward with work etc....x

a good wee day being back on plan...have enjoyed my food and just logged it in MFP too (i know..i'm bad lol) and it's not even 1300 calories! didn't plan on it being low...that'll help with some of my chippy damage from last night hehe

might have a wee bite of something later if i need it....but had a late dinner (hence the weird concoction!) so can't see me needing it as i'll be off for my popcorn and milky bar shortly :) x

i hadn't eaten a lot when i posted that....i've since had half a fish supper from the chippy and a fruit and nut!

ach well....typically i'm suffering tummy wise for it now but i did enjoy it :)

been trying to work out a typical sw day for me and compare to ww points...the only pro's i can see are that goodies would seem more worth it and i could have takeaways at the weekends....but i'm not liking that it's higher points for some healthier things...but only 5 for a cream egg. well, obviously i like it, lol but it's madness in a sense if you get what i mean?

i need to have a think about things...portion control isn't really what i need to worry about (i don't think anyway) it's just the part where if you have something like a pre packed sandwich or a 6 inch chicken salad subway....it's almost illegal on sw cos it's not been wm bread etc...
it's 5pp for a corn on the cob from nandos or 9 for chips (going with my eating out book from doing the plan before)....no doubt i'd pick the chips lol, but it's not the healthiest choice obviously....and i dunno how i feel about that side of things if you get me?

i'd be on 31 points and definitely think i'd automatically go to make healthier meals...but for me personally, i dunno if i'd resort straight back to low point rubbish cos i could get more rather than picking what was the better option?!

wish i hadn't looked on IG all day at ww stuff...my head is buzzing...i have books everywhere and scribbles of food i eat on sw and what it would be on ww....eurgh! lol

bought the new sw mag last night....thought it was new and just discovered it was the last one...which i already have...grrrrr...total waste of money and it was probably about £3! :(

happy that it's monday tomorrow....but i'm not quite sure what i'll be doing when i get up food wise :confused: :confused: x

I was like this I wasn't sure wether to try it or not but I'm getting on ok with it. I'm trying to keep my meals as healthy as possible still, you can do it healthy but I know what you mean, it could make us slip back into bad habits! X
 
Mac and cheese! Havnt had that for ages since onions set my tummy off. I love it too! X

i just put spring onions in it this time (are you ok with those?)..i've done it with onion and peppers etc before but just followed the recipe (well, half) and have some for lunch at work tomorrow :)

i think for me, right now wouldn't be good for me to switch....cos i know i would eat as low as i could through the day...and it would be on things which wouldn't fill me for long....but yeah, i'd have goodies galore so in reality, it's that part that i need to address!
obviously it's good that i recognise that and don't switch just to satisfy my want/need to have stuff like that....if i had more than 31pp to play with i'd be there in a flash! :giggle:

it's working well for you though and that's great...you don't have the pressure to stick to pp's just to have a loss the way that i do. i guess we just need to go with what works for us...and maybe i'll try it again at some point...but right now, i don't think it would be the best thing x

I've stayed away from all onions leeks and garlic included! I could try it on a saturday I suppose. And if I get a bad tummy I'm not at work or anything on the sunday lol

With weight watchers they do different plans too, the filling and healthy is looking good for sunday lunch days. I think I'm finding it good for maintaining, not sure how I'd have felt losing on it! X

give the mac and cheese a bash for sure...you know it's yummy and the recipe only calls for 6 spring onions so if you didn't want to add extra...there's not that many if the lot is for 4 people ;)

i saw the plan had changed....the f & h days were just introduced when i left...i stuck to points rather than those days but i see the simple start stuff is a lot like sw....except you're allowed crumpets and bread! yum lol

dunno how that works tho...if there was no limit on crumpets i know what i'd be eating for the day! lol x
