I couldnt decide what i wanted tonight... just wanted something comforting... so with 16pp left I made home made wedgies which i put curry powder on n stuck in the oven, had some low fat coleslaw in the fridge and made myself a gorgeous toasted sambo with the Ardagh low fat cheese from aldi... OMFG soooooo tasty... and coz I had the wedgies and coleslaw it felt like a proper meal....13pp... with TOTM around the corner it was the best 13pp i have spent in a long long time!

I find I am tired all the time. I do not know what is wrong with me. Got full bloods done in my doctor a month ago and they all came back fine. I am usually in bed by 9.30/10 and asleep by 10.30/11 max on work days and luckily enough I have flexi time but lately I have been coming into work between 9-9.30am. I moved to a new apartment 8 months ago and for some reason I think it is causing my tiredness. In my old apartment (was there for a year), I was full of energy, in work for 8am, exercising 5 times a week minimum and I was heavier too. I also was only sick twice in that year (suffer from a bad immune system and weak chest so would usually be sick 2-4 times a year). In the 8 months I have lived here, I have been sick 6 times and I even feel like I am coming down with something now and I was only sick 3 weeks ago. Don't know what to do. Tied into a lease until June aswell

I got the chicken fajita 7inch one... OMFG!!! 9pp... its gorgeous!!!
because im an awful picker and can't have pizza on its own, I made 3pp worth of wedgies and made my own garlic bread with low fat spread and the 3pp muffins from aldi and made my own garlic mayo with the low fat mayo.... my plate was stuffed... 17pp altogether.
hi Ali,

I know! I WI on Wednesdays too! Yeah, even though I get slightly sickened when I look at that pic, it's still a massive encouragement for days ahead. 2 months in and I have to say this week has been the hardest I'm a divil for weighing myself every day, according to my own scales I was 1 down this morning, but I go up & down like a yoyo! We'll see tomorrow, eh? Good Luck 0 -

hi Ali,
Can you tell me how you make and point your wedgies and what do ya add to the lowfat mayo and muffins to garlic them up? Garlic paste or powder?
Thanks a mill, sounds scrummy
I use whites potatoes... (they are the really good value in Aldi!) I either get one medium ones or get a large one and chop them into wedges and weigh them out to make sure they are around the 150g mark... i put them into a bowl and shake salt and black pepper over them and shake them up. Tonight i shook some curry powder over at the same time. then spray the tray and then spray the wedgies and stick them in the oven @ 200 for about 15 or 20 mins... turn them once or twice to get them nice and crispy...
For the mayo i use 1 tablespoon of light mayo and a half a teaspoon of garlic granules and a smll shake of parsley.
For my garlic bread i got them muffins from aldi... already cut and just 3pp each! Total steal! i mix a teaspoon or so of low fat spread with a half teaspoon of garlic powder/ granules and some parsley and stick them in the oven with the wedgies for about 10 mins. Because of the way the muffins are (loadsa holes and stuff in the bread) you only need a small bit of the butter.
I always used to get the 20 yoyo deal out of Pizza Hut, you know... large pizza, wedgies, garlic bread with cheese...the works.... now i am just more careful of what I do... im still having loadsa goodies just being careful with my choices.0 -

Ali was it you who got the Nitendo wii games?, were was it again and how are you getting on!
Monife that's a weird one isn't it, may see can you get your hands on a tonic or bee pollen its great at naturally boosting your energy, did they check your hormones levels I'm sure they did! hopefully as some one else said with the summer coming in it will improve.
I'm am so cold today, thought a hot shower might help! frigging water was cold! my lovely daughter left the hot tap on! Im nearly sitting on the fire all evening! watched a bit of Zumba and tried it out so I'm warm now
going to go to a zumba class tomorrow! is it hard!
Well done on all the losses this week! I'm so hoping for a nice 1 to 2 pounds but any thing down will do!
Ok got to got a baby wanting some attention! 0 -

Das Kitty really hope you get the last half pound off- you're doing brilliant
Today is the start of a new WW week and more importantly a new me- am toying with the idea of not eating bread for a couple of days (a massive downfall for me) just to get rid of the bloated feeling I have had for the last couple of days (due to excessive eating ) My aim is to get to the weekend and have some then as I find weekends tough going anyway so this would be a reward as such without going too mad!
Fingers crosesed!!0 -

I really don't think I'm going to make my half pound this evening. I'm around the same on my home scales so I'll either be STS or up a bit. Damn.
Worst thing is I'll probably get on my own scales tomorrow morning and my efforts for the past three days will show, but it'll be after my WI.
flip.
Ah well. Onwards.
Ah you'll get it one way or another. Don't forget you're in it for the long haul, so if it takes a few extra weeks it doesn't matter. When you do get there and you look back, you won't care how long it took, because you'll have gotten to where you want to be and that's the achievement, not the time it took
