    Hi everyone

    What a wonderful surprise being whisked away Dizzy, I so wish my DH would think of things like that. I struggle to get him to think about an annual holiday 17.gif

    Ive had a real crappy couple of years with my Ops so hes been really lovely with it....this is a little last minute treat before my next Op in a few weeks (before I get my magic new ears & I can hear him whingeing about me he says :rotfl::rotfl:)



    I only really started back on Monday properly but am weighing in on a Friday morning (??) and so in my first (1/2) week I have lost 3lb :T I have promised myself a new pair of boots when I get to the 1st stone so that's an incentive as I love gorgeous boots :D

    Have a good weekend everyone!

    Well done on the loss so far :j:j :D :T great idea having a little incentive to keep you focussed on getting to target ;)

    Oooh, well done you!! And a great idea to reward yourself with something like that as wearing gorgeous boots will make you feel even better about yourself, as well as the feeling of satisfaction that you've lost your stone :D

    Hope that made sense - kids are watching Glee on catch-up & I can't concentrate - aaaarrrggghhhh!!!!

    Also hubby has just walked in with fish & chips & I can smell them - double aaaarrrggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

    This thread makes me laugh, we go from botty burps to maths geeks seamlessly!! :rotfl: Btw g&b, do you remember Mercy from the low-carb thread, she has a mog called Newton as well ;)

    Dizzy, that's fantastic news that you're off to Bruges on Monday, you're sooooo lucky :j I've wanted to go to Bruges for years, their chocolate is to die for :drool: *drool drool slobber slobber* :drool: so I've been told anyway, would never eat it myself :whistle:

    Well done on the 3.5lbs off mum2twins, great first WI :j

    Im just going to sample a little choccie.....for research purposes only:rotfl::rotfl:


    There are some really cheap deals on with P&O ferries at the mo 2 for 1, both of us are going for £72 return.....including coach transfer into Bruges Bargain!!!

    Can someone please check out the philidelphia situation for me. I seem to remember reading on here the debate about soft cheese only being a HEB choice and NOT a HEA. Am I going mad [don't answer that :p] or did I imagine it. I quite fancy giving it a go with pasta but not sure now which HE to use it with :o.
    Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T

    Hi all:j

    Don't post often but maybe I should - keep up with the thread all the time though. Perhaps I will stay better on the straight & narrow if I post my meals LOL. Put on about 5lb over the festive season, lost 2lb of that this week. Todays meals:

    B: breakfast rice, toffee muller, blueberries/banana

    L: Sweetcorn chowder (F), grapes

    D: HM spicy turkey burgers, (cheese slice on top) salad, SW chips, sweetcorn cob,

    HEA milk 250ml, HEB Fibre plus bar

    Could I go green with this menu & have 2 As & 2 Bs??

    Been to Morrisons & got some fibre plus bars & Penguin wafers - tks to whoever posted those offers! Love how everyone likes the milk choccy fibre plus - but I love the dark choccy ones so there's always loads left. What are the syns on the penguin wafers please??
    New start JAN15 - NOT BUYING IT 2015 :eek:. Long haul DFW #145 : 2011 DEBTBUSTING : £5500 OD GONE, £2000 OD - GONE £93,610.30 cc & loan debt - GONE 27.6.14 FINALLY DEBT & MORTGAGE FREE :happyhear

    57g of 'Medium fat soft cheese' is a HEB but only (I think) on green days. I got in such a faff with that myself as I'm used to EE. I made pasta with Philly last week but I wanted bacon and mushrooms with it so ended up synning it instead. I used extra light which is 2 syns for 28g, so I reckoned the 50g I used at about 3.5 syns.


    Have a great time in Bruges dizzy. It's a lovely place. I don't thik you need worry about the euro. If you just think of them as £s then you're getting it a little cheaper (but not much:(). The Belgian national dish is mussels, chips and mayonnaise. Mussels are free and speedy but sadly not the frites or mayonnaise.

    42g of full fat soft cheese is a HEB on a green day according to the book ;) but its not mentioned at all when doing EE
