Hey Sryan, nice to add another person to our little group. 30lbs is absolutely brilliant, well done you My biggest fear is maintaining, I'm still in the thinking of - I can't wait to eat this when I lose this.... How did you manage it?

Anyway lovely to 'meet' you!

I managed to lose the 30lb by using mfp and just hitting the gym but then I had emergency surgery for my appendix and lost all motivation, kept restarting through the year but never managed a week! Joined sw last October but again more surgery and then never stuck, been hitting the gym pretty well though most weeks 3-4 times but it's just my eating I struggle with, and slimming world on paper is my perfect plan so starting again!

Hey sryan, thans for joining us! We done on all that loss

Lyndsey, we went to Wetherspoons in the end, I ordered BBQ chicken melt and swapped the chips for a jacket potato but then put butter on the potato and had 2 pints as well so it wasn't healthy at all! My friend also brought a dozen homemade salted caramel chocolate brownies and a bottle of wine as a thank you... I've managed to leave the wine alone but the brownies are going down very nicely! We've just decided to enjoy them, have 1 each every day until we finish them and make sure we keep to plan for everything else. There would be a time where they would be gone in a matter of hours

How have your weekends been?

Mmmm BBQ chicken melt, one of my favourites. I think that's a good idea about the brownies, at least you're spreading the syns out then Do you want my address so you can post me some? Haha. Weekend was good, I lost control a little on Sunday as it was my nieces birthday party. I made a salad as I knew there wouldn't be one, ate a large plate and then continued to eat some pizza slices, sausage roles and birthday cake. Luckily I didn't go anywhere as mad as I would usually, but I still felt a little disappointed.

But hey ho, onwards and upwards (or downwards on the scales I hope! )

Mummybear it's lovely to have you here, the more the merrier!!

I'm great thanks, doing well at the moment. Cooking a nice big Sunday lunch and getting my soup ready for next week, just taking a 5 minute break from the kitchen.
