Salad in a Jar | Recipe (Slimming World friendly)

salad in a jar

I guess this one isn’t so much of a recipe, more a different way of doing something to make it more interesting, and a salad in a jar actually keeps a few days in the fridge*! This also makes it really handy for taking to work, or if you have a busy routine at home and don’t have time to stand chopping salad for making your lunch during the day, you can make 2 or 3 of these salad in a jar up on a night time, then they can be taken from the fridge and either enjoyed straight from …

Slimming World weigh in #60 – the one where I’m grumpy…

After last week’s weigh in and feeling like I was back in the zone, I was raring to go to get that 2lb loss to get into that next stone bracket. I was on it all week, though we did go out for a carvery on Sunday but I filled my plate with veg; a few syns were possibly used on gravy, and stuffing, and a Yorkshire pudding… oh. Oops! I kept my syns down after that though to try and balance it out. I’ve been eating a lot more speed food again too though I’m not properly back on it with meal planning …

Slimming World weigh in #59 – the one where I’m back on it…

After last week’s weigh in and yet another maintain but managing that photo of the “fat jeans”, I was feeling a bit more determined and in the zone. I did a little more meal planning last week and I was on it for most of the week; we did have a meal out one evening and I did go for a healthier option, but I couldn’t resist cake… Oops. I ate a lot of speed fruit & veg though, started a food diary again, and stayed mostly within my syns so I think that really helped. I must have been back in …

Raspberry & Choc Shot baked oats | Recipe (Slimming World friendly)

Baked oats are one of my staple breakfasts nowadays, and there are so many different versions that you can make that you could even have them as a dessert! This raspberry and Sweet Freedom Choc Shot version really hits the spot, though. It is sweet, fruity, and chocolaty for a very low syn value*, but it also feels like you are being naughty as it looks like a cake too!

Slimming World weigh in #58 – the one with the fat jeans …

So, you would have thought that after last week’s weigh in and being back on the losing track again, it would have given me that much needed kick up the rear, right? Wrong! As per usual, I started the week with good intentions then it slowly dwindled… I have been snacking on rubbish – crisps, sweets, the kids chocolate (I didn’t have any of my own though so that one doesn’t count, right?…). Most of my meals were on plan, it’s just the parts in between I seem to be struggling with at the minute. I did have a push though when …
