Hope your sons Birthday party goes well, you certainly have a nice day for it.[msnsmile2]

Sounds like you are all dropping like flies up there, isn't it summer yet? Poor things!
My kids have been sick this week with colds and bugs....horrible things.
Julie that's great you got the hang of scanning, and I really appreciate the trouble you go to, you are a gem!
Mizzy I hope your Son has a brilliant birthday, and you enjoy it too. Mums end up wrecked at these things! My daughter had 7 girls for a sleepover last night, I am exhausted today. Its all the preparation and catering and 'worrying' that we do. Never ending. Allow yourself a small piece of cake Mizzy, you will have burnt it off already, all the running around!
Have a great day everyone, mine is drawing to a close!
Night Night!

well we've had a lovely day today, the birthday was just a family affair so 6 adults and 6 kiddies bowling and then off to pizza hut after
i've had far too much pizza[msnembarrased] and a slice of chocolate birthday cake [msneek]
so i'm not expecting miracles on the scales tommorow and will have to face the consequences whatever they say

Hi all,
Mzzy so glad it all went well[msnsmile2]
We had a great day too, went to the car show, little ones loved it in Daddys car[msnwink]
We had a b-b-q type meal in between lunch and tea[msneek] So diary a bit wierd today[msnoo]
1 weetabix with summer fruits and yog
skiiny latte x 1
I 100% beef burger, 2 100% lamb kebabs, salad, SW chips and 1 tbsp olive oil dressing
Lots of water but not managed my 2 litres[msnsad]
1 weetabix with summer fruits and yog (Yes I am hooked on this at the moment[msnwink])
Like Mizzy I am not expecting a great loss on the scales this week[msnsad]
I am not doing anything wrong but I can feel its just not moving, so next week I am sticking to the 7 day menu plan in the new mag[clap]

Help please!
At lunchtime today (original day) I had 2 quorn sausages, bacon, scrambled eggs and some baked beans. I thought this would be fine as at the club last week the leader said quorn sausages were ok and I am pretty sure I have read that some of you eat them on original days.
Being a bit thick[msnembarrased] I have only just cottoned on to the food diary section online at slimming world and couldnt find the sausages on the syns list. So I entered the nutritional info from the package and it calculated the syns as 35![msneek] for the pack, which is 6 sausages. I ate 2 which means I have had 11.6 sins just with those sausages (which I didnt even like [msnmad]) and the group leader advised that I should stick to 10 syns per day!
How do others manage to fit these into your daily allowance? I am in a panic now as I havnt even entered the remainder of my day into my food diary and due to get weighed again Tuesday!
Karen
Ok, panic over, just found them in the food optimising book, under sausages and quorn vegetarian sausages are free on both green and original days:)

glad you found them Karen, quorn sausages are free on both plans, but baked beans are not free on red so did you weigh these as a healthy extra or did you have them as syns?
talking of breakfasts i've a quick tip about mushrooms, i cook mine in a little water and soy sauce to saute them (worcester sauce is good too) and then drain and finish off in the frying pan or oven and they taste lovely
i'm going to follow a menu plan for the next 7 days too Julie, i find that it really helps you get back on track when you've had a few days off, it will also be easier with the children being back at school[msnwink]
Mizzy
god, i'm dreading tommorow's weigh in[msnscared] and i'm the "weigh lady" at class [msneek]
-
Mizzy glad the birthday party went well and dont worry about tomorrows weigh in as Birthdays come but once a year. If you have been good for the rest of the week I am sure you will be fine.
I had the baked beans as a healthy extra. I have been a bit stupid all week and found it really difficult but now realise I had forgotten about the healthy extras! So apart from free foods have been counting everything else as syns[msnembarrased] Oh well, will see what the weigh in says on Tuesday evening.
Good luck to all.

Morning!
Karen its very hard to get the hang of the syns, healthy extras, etc etc. I find it daunting STILL!
It seems like a few of us are following the SW mag plans this week.
If I stay even this week I will be happy. Fingers crossed for late today!

Evening all, had a amd weekend, friend's hen party today - yes I had teeny glass of bucks fizz and no sandwiches, cakes, wraps etc - only the prawns & veggies and fruit, along with 2 cocktail sausages and tons of water[angel]. Blew it all the evening as DH did not return from the golf club until nearly 9.00pm so had a burger and bun on the barbie stuffed with lettuce, tomato & onion and eye-wateringly fresh colmans mustard. Had tons of water after that too, I wonder why!
Am going to try and follow a 7 day diet plan too as I agree Mizzy it re-focuses you when you have fallen off the wagon!
Of course as I have chucked out all my old smart togs have nothing to wear to the wedding. So what do I get that is suitable for the Guild Hall in Windsor (where Charles & Camilla and Elton John got married) and a reception that goes on from 3.30 until 11pm. Don't want to spend a fortune as will be a different shape after my op in September but need something a bit dressy.
