Licking the Lid of Life....my esoteric diary

[lickthelid]

I only had half of the one as OH tried it.

I have to keep my fibre up so going to do ONO for tomorrow's breakfast. I also have two boxes of oats to use up.

Finished the Frosties then?

I've just made our oats for tomorrow I'm all about the raspberries at the moment. And they ARE speed fruit, so that's a bonus

Can @Trefoil and @soshbfly check the alert preferences here: https://www.minimins.com/account/alert-preferences (Everything ticked?)

Very on the ball @Pierce cant have them missing my pearls of wisdom

Who am I kidding. I could waffle for Team GB.

I WAS going to write waffle for England but I'm all for inclusivity

[Pierce]

And if you go here: https://www.minimins.com/account/alerts

Does it list any alerts?

 

[soshbfly]

Ditto. Says "unwatch thread"

 

[Trefoil]

Yeah there's just the last few but I've been onto some of my other threads not listed there and there's 3+ pages worth of posts I haven't seen which is odd!

The system only notifies you once. Until you post on the thread and ( I am not 100% sure, look at the thread) as to not over load the number of alerts you get.

You should be seeing alerts that your posting on the thread.

Try unwatching and re-watching the thread?

Glad the oat cake came out good, I'll try if. I'm gonna put a banana in and be naughty and not syn it. I usually have banana a day, so I don't see why it can't be in an oat cake.

Glad you had a good weekend. Mines been okay but I'm exhausted. Waiting for my late cycle to arrive. Got all the period like symptoms but it's just late. So I feel rubbish. I've lost 15lbs in 3 weeks, so my body must be confused. But been in the garden today, my daughter keeps pulling me up to look at flowers, so I'm getting the steps in. My Fitbit is liking me

Since this seems to be the oats page lol
Here are my baked oats from this morning. I used he official slimming world recipe, oats, sweetener, egg, yogurt and I added 70g strawberries (1sy ) and vanilla

Super yummy, tastes like a pudding. I just need to invent syn free custard and I'll be happy.

Not exactly a custard, but the lady doing the video of the baked oats made what looked like a nice accompaniment - fromage frais with artificial sweetener and vanilla extract. I'm trying the recipes this weekend

 

[lickthelid]

I am going to make that this weekend I think for my Sunday breakfast.

[lickthelid]

Hi Karen nice to see you. Did you have a nice time away? Going away is always a dangerous time for weightloss isn't it??!

 

[Cavegirl21]

We need some refreshing drinks for the Summer.Not just squash. Bit like that fake 'pimms'. 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar, 2 litres of diet lemonade, mint and fruit.
Anyone got any other ideas?

 

[lickthelid]

Chilled green tea with sweetener and fruit is nice and very refreshing!

 

[soshbfly]

We have a Starbucks in our canteen and they make me coffee, skimmed milk, 2 squirts of sugar-free vanilla syrup and ice "fakeaccino" - meant to be the healthy version. Its blended totally and it looks decadent but its not as you can see. Tastes yummy too.
