Friday 15th Oct.. EE

hi all - bloomin freezing today but on the plus side its jumper weather! Am not good with flesh exposing summer.

My food today is a bit too similar to yesterday. Bit of an economy drive - its all well and good gettinb a sicd and varied diet but it costs a packet at the mo. Im trying to use up whats in the cupboard as OH thinjs we are stocking up in case there is a war on!

HEA - always milk
HEB - crunchy bran for breakfast

Snack - cantloupe melon

Dinner - supernoodles with sweetcorn, muller light

Exercise - walked round the trafford centre for 3hrs last night in heely work shoes trying to find shoe, handbag, fascinator combo for a wedding in 2wks... Got to have burnt some fat off!!

Tea - very large portion of garlic, tomato & prawn spaghetti

Also had a tiny chomp 3syns and a percy pig from M&S 2syns....
Total - 5syns
 
Confession time

OK so my best laid plans for flexi syns on saturday went a bit astray they were fff..lll..ee.xx..iii syns alright!!

I had stuck to the plan all day having fruit and yoghurt for my breakfast and a big salmon and new potato salad at lunchtime.

Id measured out 6 measures of gin in a bottle of slimline tonic to go under the table and allowed 6 syns for the complementary glass of fizz on the way in...
What i hadnt allowed for was the bottle of red that was put on the table that no-one else was drinkinhg (they were all white wine girls). So after having the fizz, glass of red I was on my way (having not drunk much since staring SW and not having eaten much all day) I proceeded to eat whatever was put in front of me, have the rest of the bottle of red (i think) and christ alone knows what else.
I was rat @rsed!!! Not pretty. Some blow out!

I was dying all day sunday, could keep nothing down at all - only managed a small bowl of plain boiled rice at about 8pm - Im ashamed to see.

Not the best SW menu you'll find in the book!!! Doh!

Just made some chicken casserole (couldnt sleep) for my dinner after weigh in - SOOO looking forward to that!
 
Lost another 2 lb at weigh in today, was more than happy with that following saturdays nonsense! Want 2.5 lb to get my stone and back into the tens!
 
Popping in for a quick hello! Well done with your 2lbs off, that must have made your cold day a whole load better! Enjoy the casserole :) Can I have the recipe please? xxx
 
Hiya - just looking at your stats. Youre so close now to goal - you must be tiny!!!

It was a bit of an improptu casserole to be honest - im more of a 'throw it all in and hope for the best' type cook than follow a recipe. Id cooked some chicken breasts yesterday and needed to use them so I bought a roasting vegetable pack from Morrisons (it had potato, carrots, leeks, turnip and red onion in) I added 2 veggie stock cubes, some time and a bit of dried sage I found looking sorry for itself in the cupboard and left it all simmering on the hob whilst I pottered around for an about an hour this morning. About 20 mins before the end I chopped the chicken breasts into good bite sized pieces and added those.
It was gorgeous and very hearty - definately what was needed on a cold and frosty morning!!

Tiny front profile, pregnant side profile! Thanks for the casserole info :)

Regarding syns, just use them all up! I'm purposely making an effort to use as many as possible nowadays, see if it helps at all as my losses are getting to the stage where they have the power to make me cry! The WI lady gets all nervous when I get on the scale because she knows I'm either gonna go YAYYYYYYYYYYY!! :woohoo: or OHMYGODAREYOUFREAKINGKIDDINGME?! :banghead:

Managed to have a much less synful day today - feel better for it too.

HEA - Milk

Dinner - I made some thai fish cakes today that were gorgeous. I threw 150g haddock, tinned white crab, 1 egg, some garlic, chilli flakes and corriander in the food processor, made them into little patties and fried them in fry lite.
I served them with boiled rice, stir fried veggies and a chilli sauce made with 1tbsp mango chutney (2 syns ), soy sauce, lime juice, chopped garlic, chilli and sping onions.
Would definately do it again but would make them spicier!!

Tea - chicken and veggie soup, melon

FF yoghurt

Fingers crossed the week is going to be ok.

Just got back from WI a day early, I lost 0.5lb this week.
Was really p'ed off at first but then realised I got away with it BIG TIME last week so it may well have caught up with me.

Have made up packed tea of pasta, mixed peppers, spring onions, sliced ham and Fat free vinagrette to have on the ferry later along with sliced melon, pinaepple and mango............ Must not be seduced into eating ready packed sandwiches, fast food or 'grab bag'/ nose bag crisps!!!
Have to save all my syns this week for booze - that may make me sound like an alcofrolic but - its a wedding, and an irish one at that... it could go on for days!!!
