**TEAM TINSEL** 4 stone for Christmas

[Emmey1]

Have a lovely day xx

Going back to the syns.......I tend to save syns for my naughties at the weekend......try to be saintly mon-fri and relax a little fri night (wine night!) and Saturday. I find it works for me - good routine in week cos of AAARGH work and knowing that I can enjoy my weekend just seems to keep me on plan. Hope it keeps working for me as the weight comes off. I also feel that this helps my attitude to food and feel that this is a plan for life xx

I think this is perfect and my other half follows a healthy plan during the week and has his blow outs at weekends and still loses every week - id like to think once I'm target this is the way I'll go - good girl during the week and have my treats at the weekends - mind you I kind of do that now anyway as when I'm working etc during the week I don't really crave many syns it's weekends when I'm at home and nibble or drink!

Have been over the moon this morning - been wetsuit shopping! Went to Newquay last year and took up surfing! Was pretty good at it too - hired the board but they couldn't hire me a wetsuit as I was too big!!! 2.5 stone loss later and I've just tried on a 2xl suit in decathlon and it was too big!! So next week I shall be the proud owner of an xL suit! It's still a huge suit lol but I'm going down! Lol

That is fantastic! Love getting smaller!

Had a sneaky weigh last night just to check how bad the damage is, from my last 'official' weigh in I seem to be about 2lbs up but aiming to be at either sts on weds or small loss would make me VERY happy!

I'm exactly the same Dex I'm sooooo good during the week I practically grow angel wings, but on Saturday night I grow devil horns lol I love a drink, so Saturday night is always where loads of my syns get spent! lol It keeps me on track all week knowing I can have a good drink on Saturday and still lose some lard

Well done, that's great If you buy it at the last min before you need it, you might even be a L WTG surfer girl lol

I was just thinking the same thing.. well not the veganising bit They sound lovely.

At a guess i would say its the half syn roulade recipe with an options sachet mixed into the quark and put into cake cases? That could be totally wrong tho lol

 

[Vegan*4*Life]

Options sachet? are they the chocolate drink things? Won't be making those then No substitute for them I don't think don't sound very cakey.

Was so hungry this evening.......rummage in fridge later and I've yomped a chicken leg and a yoghurt!!

Same here - just munched a bowl of weetabix!

Feel like I've eaten loads today and feel really guilty for it! Even tho I've not had anything bad - probably had my full 15 syns today tho - which is fine but why does it feel so wrong? Lol

 

[dextersmum]

Lol - agreed but at least it wasn't crisps, chocolates or biscuits xx

Here here happy Monday ladies ;0)

 

[Emmey1]

Morning all! Happy Monday and good luck with our second WI's this week

 

[SarahCroz]

Morning all! Although it feels like afternoon already, I had an early driving test this morning so had to leave at 6.50. Bit of a shock to the system as I don't usually leave 'till 9!

Was hoping to get the week off to a good start after a not so great weekend (food wise) but I'm off to Birmingham this afternoon to meet my friend and we're going to an Indian. It's soooooo good there and we only meet up every few months so even if I'm really careful I'll definitely have a lot more than I would if I was just home on my own. Oh well, got to live as well, hope I can have a little bit of restaint

Happy Monday! (if there can be such a thing, lol) Good luck this week everyone xx
