Just had lunch and tried the syn free 'mayo' - it is 6tbsp extra light from frais, 2tbsp white wine vinegar and 1 tsp canderel. I put in 2 tins of tuna and had 3/4 it with a jacket and 28g cheddar - lovely (but definitely NOT mayonnaise lol)

Well done to everyone that lost this week.
I returned from my holiday Sunday, didn't go to WI Monday, as I had a bad tooth that needed a visit to the dentist while away, so came home feeling very miserable.
On the upside I may have lost some weight due to not eating through the pain......................LOL!

Ooh a challenge! I love challenges! Last week I said I would:

1. Have planned treats every day (the syn values are already written on the Fudges and Curly Wurlys in my cupboard!)
2. Drink loads of water
3. Read this thread every day for ideas and motivation

I haven't done too badly with sticking to those but my weigh in is tonight so we shall see! Sunday and Monday went a bit pear shaped but hopefully I have done enough the rest of the week to show a loss. Fingers crossed!

For Natalie's challenge:
Cook a SW meal you have NEVER had before!
I will try the Baked Bean Lasagne!
2. Do 15 mins EXTRA exercise in addition to what you normally do!
I normally do nothing so I will commit to 15 minutes on my trampette!
3. Buy and eat a piece of fruit you have not had for ages!
I have ordered an Ugli fruit in my shopping delivery so that will be something new!
4. Add your own personal target for the week here.
I will aim for 1 lb off this week.
Wish me luck! Good luck to everyone else setting themselves a challenge!

Hi all!!

Been to my first weigh in this morning, was dreading it as i thought theres no way i could have lost anything due to the amount of food i`ve eaten & guess what....... i lost 7lb!!!!!!!! half a stone, i still can`t believe it lol!! I`ll just keep doing what i done last week, tried to make as much of my menus free food, i could just fit it on my food diary!! not that i expect to loose that much every week!!
Also brought this week some of the hi-fi bars, they do sound nice, toffe & pecan & choc mint crunch mmm!!! x

Well I did it. I weighed in last night and had lost 3 1/2 lb. That means that I have now lost 42 1/2 lbs; so 2 1/2 lbs towards the next 40lbs and I received my 3 stone award.

In the last week I did 5 Green and 2 Extra Easy days. As it was so successful, I think i will stick to Green in the future except when I eat out - Extra Easy is more flexible for those occasions.

brownjasperdog - good luck with the weigh in tonight - remember wear light clothes

rach3 - you sound like me - i nearly rang the conusultant midweek to tell her it abviously wouldn't work lol 7LBS WOW!!!!!!!!!

toochoosey - plenty of fruit to choose from then - try banana and muller mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm - ps no one said you have to eat the fruit on it's own - how about making a cheesecake type mousse with strawberries in it - 2 syns for tons (2 tubs quark, 1 sachet hi lights, 1 sachet gelatine, 2tsp vanilla extract, 5tsp sweetner, strawberries. Mix quark, vanilla and sweetner. In cup make up 1 cup hot water with hi lites. Add gelatine to hot water stirring all time - whisk into cheese. Add strawberries. Set in pots or 1 big bowl - 2 syns and fruit )

BEC1980 - 1lb off your 10% WAHOOOOOOOOO - how much have you lost so far and in how long - that is brilliant, and with no exercise too!!!!!! Amazing!

I have just been very good and deep cleaned 1/2 the kitchen (worksurface side - my kitchen is bigger than living room!) - i find a clean and tidy kitchen helps me feel focused and want to cook - sad i know. Still waiting for my joe's delivery but is still early lol. I WANT MY BURGERS he he
