I make one using two red peppers (roast and take skin off), a litre of stock and a carton of passata, just simmer together for a wee while then let cool and zoosh in the blender - would eat it even if I wasn't dieting. Makes about four bowls BTW:).

Sounds yummy - I'll try this one too:)

Hello Another gorgeous day here today, wore my flip-flops to work today so summer must be here

Postie has brought me my final cheque from dialaphone for my last phone (£97.50) and a free sample bottle of dove shower gel, all very kind of him! The cheque has seen off October 2021, it doesn't count towards the £10 a day challenge though as it was already worked in to the years money.

A couple of people at work today commented on me losing weight too which was nice :j

I keep expecting people to notice my 4.5lb loss....why don't they eh?!?!:rotfl::rotfl:

Another gorgeous day here today, we've been to the park after school and several of ds friends were there too Several more comments at school today about my weightloss which was lovely, and one lady said she'd really noticed how clear my skin was and how good it looked which was lovely

Tonight I need to do a matched bet, have a bath and a bit of a tidy-up generally, hopefully grab some time to enter a few more comps too

benbenandme

Grr, did 2 qualifying bets for tonight, have done one of the freebies but didn't check the other one properly and thought it was an in-play bet, so lost the freebie Never mind, still £3 up but it should have been about a fiver more if I'd double-checked properly

Managed to book a return coach ticket for me and ds in May to go to London and back for a total of £4.50 :j :j Think we'll do some of the museums while we're there, will start looking into it, don't think I'll tell him yet either, leave it as a surprise

hypno06

bah to the bet, but at least you are still up on the day.

Well done on the cheapie trip to London too - DS will love it!

Hello all, sorry for not posting for a bit, I went to a staff quiz last night, lots of fun was had and we came last, as expected, but it was a great night

Just claimed a £10 tesco voucher from a survey site, will spend it when it arrives and transfer the money across to the savings pot

Can't wait for my weigh-in on saturday, think its been a good week weightwise :j

I have discovered that Thorntons chocolate marzipan bars are only 3 points.....that'll do me nicely
