Slimming world advice please :)

Oh yes two a day is fine I am sure! And yes it is a free food but I just meant don't use it as your 1/3 S foods as it isn't. I so wish it was an S food though cause there is nothing more convenient and I love them!

2lbs off im happy with that in my first week! 8 weeks til xmas so im aiming for 2lb a week until then ����

 

[AngelUK]

I didn't go to group yesterday. I don't know where my head is at I just can't stay on plan grrrrr! So frustrated with myself x

Maybe you are actually feeling ok with your current weight? How much more were you planning on losing?

 

[mumface26]

Aldi brooklea fat free greek style yogurt strawberry - 0 syns (4packs) the toffee ones are half a syn? I wonder why? Either way delishhhh!!!

 

[mumface26]

Frylight.....syn free.....can you use as much as you want? And is it all varieties that are free?

 

[AngelUK]

Yep they are free and you can use as much as you want. But obviously within reason. I mean, don't open it and pour it out!

 

[mumface26]

Thats what confuses me about SW, the free foods we can have. All controlled portions.
Pasta for example, i still weigh mine out because i bet they dont expect you to go away and eat a huge plate full of the stuff every day lol xx

I made the new york bacon burgers with cajun wedges and DH loved them. We went to an american style diner a few months back and ordered burgers and he reckons the sw ones tasted better he said i'd seasoned them enough whereas the diner ones were just lumps of meat in a bun.
I've been on so many diets and made us bland boring meals which i believe is why they've never worked. I love the choice variety with SW and not once have I felt hungry or 'deprived' from banning all sweet treats.
Speaking of which.....the aldi brooklea fat free greek style yogurts are sooo good. The strawberry flavours are free and the toffee ones are half syn

My main reason for losing weight is so that we can have a stress free life when we start TTC next April. All year I've had no will power but soon as went to my first SW meeting and saw them numbers on the scales I promised myself I'd never see that number ever again and my will power returned.
I know I'm probably going to experience some tough weeks but we're only human.
Xxx

[topsy]

I am having the butternut squash soup from last months mag for tea.

I lost 5 1/2 lbs last week Hoping to loose 2lbs this week xxxx

 

[AngelUK]

wow well done Topsy!

I put on 1/2lbs but then I did stuff myself at the nursery Halloween party so no surprise there! Sigh.

 

[nicki01]

Sorry guys I keep going missing from this thread!! Well I'm out of target, need to loose 2lb by Thursday or else I have to pay 😁
Really struggling to get back into the swing of things after having 2 weeks totally off plan, need to start planning again. Ive bought ingredients for steak casserole and steak and mushroom pies, sw style obviously! Also thinking of making leek & potato soup this week!
Need to kick myself up the backside and get to the bottom of my target by Xmas so I can eat all the yummy Xmas food that I keep seeing in the shops! Lacking will power 😟

 

[mumface26]

Really feel like im eating too much but yet i'm still on plan.....

Breakfast - porridge made with milk (hxa&b) apple (speed)

Snack - plum (speed)

Lunch - wholemeal pasta msde with chopped toms, onion, garlic, peppers and mushrooms. Satsuma (speed) was my pasta ingrdients classed as a speed meal?

Dinner - roasted chicken breast, carrot n swede mash, brocolli and cauliflower. Gravy 100ml (speed veg)

Syns.....went over by half a syn yesterday due to a daim bar so today 14.5 to use

Salt n vinegar chip sticks 4.5
Chocolate digestive bar 5
Gravy 100ml 1.5
Cheese puffs 3.5? Not sure weather to have these as tomorrow could be synful due to what i have planned for lunch, im having chicken mayo wraps and using one wrap as hxb. The wraps are weight watchers and are 4.5 syns. Im using mayo at 2 syns as i like a lot so yeah might save my 3.5 for tomorrow. Can i do that?


I think its because im new to SW and my previous diets have meant small portions and next to no sweet treats i feek like im doing something i shouldn't.

Ahhh well, all will be revealed on Thursday.....

 

[mumface26]

Another 2lb melted away
Thats 4lb so far. I want to drop 3lb for next week so thats my first half stone shifted sp week for me

 

[AngelUK]
