WI tonight and lost another 0.5lb. Am now 2lb under target and would really like to not pay for a few more weeks. Any target members got any tips for maintaning? I'm already having 2 B choices when I can manage them.

:wave:

Just poking my nose around the door as back from holiday. I could tell you what I ate (and drank:o) in the last week rachel but that wouldn't be hugely constructive as I don't want to lead you astray.

What I've done since reaching target is carry on with meal planning and shopping to match but added in a few meals that I'd previously banned as not worth the syns. Like cauli cheese (so extra HEA plus cornflour), lots more sauces/gravies with cornflour, a plate pie with pastry cos my DH loves them. I've only added one or two each week and maintained well until....

I've just had a week's holiday and I just must have put on a few lbs with all the tapas and sangria I've had. I don't weigh at home so I'm now firmly on the SW wagon hoping to be in target range by next Thursday.

Question Has anyone tried making frozen SW oven chips? Yesterday, I parboiled my chips in the morning to save me time later. They were the best chips ever probably because they were completely cold and dry before spraying and going in the oven. That got me thinking that maybe I could freeze them parboiled? Any advice?

Oh lovely news Dizzy Congratulations :j:j:j

Its been a strange week. Its been my first week back at work after my hols the week before and I have been full of cold. Not ill enough to take time off sick but not well enough to feel full of beans so most nights I have got home and collapsed on the sofa...

I didn't go to group this week because I help out so its not like i can weigh and run and I didn't want to share all my nasty germs.

Usually if I miss class then I struggle to get back on the wagon but after so long of not doing very well, I have been trying hard to stay on track. Its not been perfect and each day I think I have expended too many syns but I have been trying and I am hopeful that I will at least get a maintain or loss on the scales next week which will give me the incentive to get the weight shifted once and for all!

Today I've had a hi fi for breakfast which is my HEB and an activia fat free yogurt. Think lunch will be SW chips and dinner is a meal out - I have pre-picked but can't remember what i ordered ! There will also be alcohol involved although I don't intend to drink too much (can't handle the consequences anymore and don't want to spend/waste too many syns)

Planning on doing a curry for tea tomorrow :j but not sure on the rest of the day

Have a good day all :T
