Slimming World people...

I have 1 Weetabix (with a little hot water over it to make it mushy) with a muller smothering it!!!

Or a bowl of Weetabix spoonsize chocolate, yummers!

Ta ladies

The problem with anything cereal based is that I don't feel comfortable using the office provided milk and when I bring my own in people just use it (not on purpose, I'm sure but it still goes).

I was hoping to avoid using a HE too as I like to save them for later in the day but may not be able to get around that.

I hate mug shots.

Ha I'm not sure I could get away with a full on lunch for breakfast like spaghetti or cold meats etc! Might look a bit like taking the p1ss!

I think I'm going to have to stick with fruit. Snore.

Or maybe cereal and be clearer in my labelling techniques!

Did you say you can have any cereals now?!

I'll be getting my new books on Monday, exciting!

I do hate Mueller light though.

I used to cheat and have tinned peaches (in juice) with FF natural yoghurt, yummer.

Now that I would like! I love tinned peaches. Just how much of a cheat do you reckon that is?

Well with that being my only real cheat (and sometimes having white and not brown bread!), I still lost three stone.

My motto was 'when I stop losing weight with the little cheats, I just cut the cheats out'

That is for the whole tin though? I reckon I'd only want half.

Kirst - I've always been the same when doing SW. I don't generally count the syns in alcohol until I stop losing! Ha!

I do the hot water thing, they all think i'm mad at work. I just tell them it's cause we couldn't afford hot milk when I was a kid, , , ?

Worst thing about SW is how many syns in wine.

exactly this!

Random question...why are there syns in tinned fruit if it is the 'in natural juices' variety as opposed to syrup, given that the calories and fat are the same as in fresh or frozen?

So freshly squeezed fruit juice is synned? That's mental!

Ha ha, can you tell I haven't joined yet?

The cereal is fine Jo - it's the milk.

I've been to asda and bought bananas, strawberries, pasta 'n' sauce and savoury rice. Planning on going to the local deli for a ham salad or similar most days (only £2 - bargain!) but like to have dried lunches in just in case I can't be arsed to go out.

Had a slimming world fried breakfast tonight for dinner.

Already feel a bit more in control.

Needed to happen Jo - I've put on a stone since stopping SW about 6 months ago.

Not going to beat myself up - it will come off again - but the scales did not make pleasant reading tonight.

Going back to class two weeks tomorrow.

The first one back is always the hardest. It'll come off again.

The thing that does my head in is, I can eat a banana free, if I mash it it's synd.

I never syn a mashed banana Ska. I know I should but I refuse to.

To be honest, when I was on it (need to get back on it) I never syned fruit. I refuse to believe it can be bad.

Kharv could you try decanting your milk? A guy I work with brings his own and when he just left it in the pint carton it got used, but he now puts it in a Tupperware bottle type thing and it doesn't get touched! Would be even more hidden if you put it in a non see through drinks bottle or something!
