    Well, as I'm in hotels from tomorrow, today is the last day I have any control.

    So

    Breakfast - 2 slices WW bread toasted - banana 4pp
    no mid morning snack - not hungry!
    Lunch - hm veg soup 0pp!!!! sandwich made with WW bread, WW salmon in lemon mayo and loads of salad (around 4pp
    will have a WW bar later
    Had planned on having a stir fry for tea, but that will mean I've had less than 20 points all day!
    So I've had a rethink and taken some curry out of freezer (HM and I worked it out at 6pp but it means I can have rice and naan bread and chutney!

    I am really struggling again to eat my points each day. Just shows how much chocolate I used to eat!

  • Can't get to weigh in today, so just weighed myself on my bathroom scales, and I've lost 4lb. However, I'm being realistic as normally I get weighed at 6pm in clothes, rather than at 7am in my pyjamas! So I'm going to count it as a 2lb loss, which I'm still really pleased with, and hope for even better news when I officially weigh in next week!

    Today I have a four hour drive to Scotland - decent hotel tonight, so will see what I can get for my points.

    So far today:-
    Weetabix, skimmed milk & banana 4pp
    If I have a sandwich with loads of salad for lunch, can get it for around 4pp using 2 slices of ww bread.

    That means I have 21pp for meal in hotel tonight. And I could use some weeklies?

    Slightly disappointed today as I have stayed the same this week. I'd hoped for a pound or two off, but hey - at least it's not a gain. Will definitely need to be more disciplined about weighing pointing and tracking my food, I think. I have bought a small notebook to keep in my bag and write stuff down as I have it, rather than try and remember it all at the end of the day.

    Today, I've had

    Pumpkin, ginger and apple soup - 0 pp
    Egg salad sandwich - 7 pp
    WW lemon and lime mousse - 2 pp
    Packet of Sunbites - 3 pp
    Sausage, apple and onion casserole, with potatoes, broccili and carrots - 10 pp
    2 x WW sultana and cinnamon cookies - 2 pp

    I think that's 24pp out of the 29 I should have eaten. I'd actually struggle to eat any more today. I also earned 2 activity points, which I try to never use, so hopefully I'm on course for a good week!
  • congrats minty fantastic news, really pleased for you!

    Hootie a week without a loss is not so bad, track & point lady, track & point! x

    Morning

    No idea about the points for my meal last night, I picked a chicken dish that looked like it wasn't in a sauce; it came with wild mushrooms and chive mash, I had a side order of veg too.

    Strangely I don't feel hungry enough for a breakfast, so am just going to have a WW banoffee bar (think they are 2pp) and a banana.

    The customer I am with today always provides lunch, so that will fill me up and then I can get back on track when I get home.

    Oh yes and I had a small glass of wine, so that was another 3 pp last night!
