Slimming world breakfast, fruit and vegetables with cottage cheese.
The start of a good weight loss week!
Stress
We’re in the process of moving house. It’s going very slowly. I’m stressed out and taking it out on junk food. My weeks are currently 4 days of eating crap, 3 days of starving damage control, it’s effing ridiculous. Ugh.
-15.5lb and I’m an idiot for nearly messing this up
Week 6
It was my birthday a few days ago, and there was chinese food and then a visit to a tea room for cake and finger sandwiches. It was all lovely and lots of fun.
100% sw today, as well as another goal - more positivity.
Ramblings
My friend sent me photos from 15 years ago. I thought I was fat and disgusting and ugly, turns out I was overweight but not ugly and not disgusting.
Now I’m around 8st heavier. It’s hard to think about. I look so happy and youthful and awesome in those pictures and I want that to be me now.
I need to get my fucking head in the game, because I CAN lose 8st in a year, it’s very possible, and I can be that person again.
My plan of action is save up my syns for a night out on Friday, smash through the - 1 stone mark and be well on the way to 1.5 stone by next tuesday.
There are no excuses, I can’t keep slacking

Slacking
I’ve been slacking; cleaning, working, blogging, Slimming World... it’s all been a bit ‘meh the last few days.
It’s definitely that ‘particular’ week this week where I’m just tired, angry and devouring snacks. I also seem to be following the same old pattern of sort of giving up after a month *sigh*
I’ve not been 100% at all, but not bad enough to have actually gained weight I think. Today’s been pretty good SW wise - 3 syns so far and a syn free meal simmering away for dinner already.
I probably just need more sleep, and less booze!
*yaaaaawn*
Week 5
Finding it hard to stick to plan 100% and not cheat. I have no idea why - I’m not ‘hungry’ just always seem to go overboard on the junk, even when I CAN have a little and syn it. I’m going to try and remember all day that the only person I’m cheating is me!
I slacked off a few days, so very happy with this! Aiming for -2 and my 1 stone certificate this week, going to try very hard to count ALL syns and not guess..
Good Bye David Bowie…
It feels fake and meaningless, almost, to be feeling so sad about somebody I didn’t even know as a person and not just as an artist, but I am sad, I think the whole UK is sad today.
Successful day!
Took the kids to a gaming day today - packed a FREE bento lunch, drank water all day... and completely avoided the huge box of amazing chocolate biscuits on one of the tables. I had one cube of my all time favourite, butter tablet fudge, and then walked away.
We were home late, takeaways were calling to us LOUDLY but we ran into Tesco and found a low syn tortellini, a practically syn free tomato sauce and a punnet of grapes. We did briefly linger over the Chinese ‘fakeaway’ banquet pack, apparently the best takeaway option syns wise... but honestly, they never taste that wonderful and it wasn’t worth blowing the day over. It was hard, we were both exhausted and very hungry, and that’s when we normally make horrible Krispy Kreme and burger decisions, but we both kept each other on track.... and even stayed away from the booze aisles... on a SATURDAY NIGHT!?
Sushi and champagne✨ I made heaps of tiny sushi ball for my friend :-) Here we go!!! Would you like one? . . 今年初ポストは大好きな泡と手毬寿司。 . しばらく覗いてなくてフィードが追えてません…すいません。今年もポツポツペースですがよろしくお願いします♔.°⑅ by _mizuho._ http://ift.tt/1VPy7Go
So very pretty!
Bento Lunch!
I did not make this sushi, but I will be making my own FREE versions soon I think.
Tesco Mixed Sushi pack 5 SYNS, all the rest FREE!
Slimming world KFC - a different recipe -------------------------------------------- This is a different one than I normally follow so I gave it a go and it was really lovely. Serves 2 4 chicken th...
I am DEFINITELY trying this as soon as I get some Smash :D
January Slimming world friendly bargains!
I went for a wander around the shops today and found some great deals;
Quark - £1.49 in Tesco, FREE, great for lasagne, pasta sauces and sweet snacks.
Hellmann’s Lighter Than Light Mayo - £1.29 in B&M, 0.5 SYN per level tbsp, to be used in all the things.
OXO Shake and Flavour, Garlic and Herb, 39p in B&M, FREE, will be used on homemade chips, meat, more meat, vegetables.
Mug Shots! 3 for £1 in B&M, Tomato, Sweet and Sour and Chicken all FREE, Chow Mein 1 SYN. To be used in times of Hanger.
Nescafe Alta Rica - only a little bit cheaper than I’ve seen it elsewhere at £2.99 in B&M, my favourite coffee, FREE.
Garlic Powder - 99p in B&M, we add it to bolognese sauces, chili, curries and use it to make super strong anti-vampire garlic mayo, FREE.
Ainsley’s Couscous - 29p in B&M, really tasty and just 2.5 SYNS for the whole bag, which is more than enough for two sides!
Twinings Lemon Earl - 89p in B&M, I LOVE Earl Grey because it tastes sweet without adding anything to it and it smells amazing. This one is ‘made especially to be taken without milk’ so hopefully it’s as delicious, and I can have it when I don’t want to use HexA on milk, FREE.
Green Tea - 89p in Quality Save, I’ve heard a lot of good things about Green Tea, and I used to drink a lot of loose green tea, so I’ll give the teabags a go,FREE
Options Caramel - Bargain on the day! Quality Save, 10p each or 6 for 50p! These are so expensive in regular supermarkets, I lost my mind a little and bought, um, 37 I think.. but they’re 2 SYNS each, and you can have them just as hot chocolate... OR... mix the dry powder with quark to make the most amazing mousse that tastes just like cheesecake topping! *Droooooooooooooooool*
Egg muffins, an excellent idea for lazy cooks such as myself.
I’m still recovering from this weird cold/chesty cough illness. Everything is taking so much energy and another treat filled weekend after my appetite came back is not helping.
Alas I am planning healthy meals for the week ahead and the above look pretty good. Breakfast has become a bit boring so definitely want to try these - Meat/Cheese variety and something sweet like cinnamon and oats?? Would oats work?
To cook:
20-25 minutes @ 200 degrees
Weightwatchers Vs Slimming World
I joined WW nearly 10 years ago just after the oldest kidlet was born, and I was my heaviest at around 300lb. I lost around 35lb and felt really great about it but then we moved and I lost all motivation. I joined up again and went sporadically over the next 5 years, following the same pattern every time;
Join new group Have a massive weight loss the first week Just about hold on the second week Get fed up and binge Put weight back on Continue going up and down for a few weeks/months Binge more, miss a few weeks Feel too guilty and ashamed to go back Quit
I’ve been to 3 different groups, and ‘restarted’ at all of them at least once, and every single time I’m just waiting for it to all go wrong. Everytime, the day I sign up again, I anticipate eventually effing up and being too ashamed to go back.
My weight has crept up and up over the last 5 years, and I got up to my heaviest of 359lb a few months ago. It’s horrible, I feel horrible and grotty and OLD all of the time. I’m 32, I’m not old but my body can’t do the things I want it to right now. I know I’m lucky - I’m still able to walk around for hours, and I still go to gigs and dance for 3-4 hours (well, bop) and I’m not house bound by any means... but I have to say ‘no’ to amazing adventures like skiing holidays, bungee jumping, water boarding, camping trips, hikes and so many more things. I have to literally Google a restaurant before accepting an invite in case they have booth seating or a theatre in case the seats are very close together. It SUCKS.
So, a few weeks ago, after my MIL told me how well she was doing, I joined Slimming World. So far so good, I’ve lost 9lb and I feel confident for the first time in years that I’ll actually be able to do it and get down to a more ‘normal’ and much healthier weight. I find it much easier to stick to than WW; if I’m hungry when out and about, I can just grab some fruit, or a muller light, or even a tomato based pasta pot and KNOW that it’s either free or very low in syns... instead of trying to work out how many points something is based on the calories, or lugging books around with me.
The general ‘feeling’ of SW is also friendlier and more forgiving in my opinion. The week before Christmas there was a group discussion about what our plans were, and people were actually saying that they were going to allow themselves up to 2lb, up to 5lb, up to 10lb GAINS over the week because it’s Christmas, and they knew they could just carry on as usual the week after - and the leader was entirely supportive of it! I’ve never heard anyone in WW, let alone a leader, talk about anything but losing lbs being an appropriate goal, and it just felt... normal.. to expect to let our hair down a bit and join in for a week. I put 2lb on that week, and I didn’t feel at all ashamed to go back the next week and be weighed. There was no ‘Oh dear, that’s a shame, lets talk about how you can better manage your weight loss this week’ or ‘let’s talk about where you went wrong’ it was just ‘Ok, we all had a great Christmas, lets draw a line and have a SW week now’.
It’s only been a few weeks, so I can’t compare the two properly yet, but I think SW is definitely more for me. I wish I’d had a better knowledge of what it actually was years ago, because I think it’s going to be the thing that saves me
