    Hi all,

    Can you add me in again for this months challenge please Dragon.

    I am sorry to say my first weigh-in for October is not a good one. Whilst I managed to lose 6lbs in September, I have stayed the same this week, so not off to a great start to this months challenge.

    We are now allowed free staff lunch at work, but some of the options are not the healthiest, I had chicken burger and chips on Saturday, then cheese burger on Sunday, which was then followed by Roast Lamb dinner on Sunday night when we visited family, (I did resist the homemade apple crumble though).

    However I have Started this week off rather better with a chicken and pasta bake meal at 340 calories for lunch today. Just need to get back to planning ahead more in future and resist the high cal junk food option! I stilll have four more weigh-ins this month, so hope to get rid of a few more pounds.

    Good luck to everyone in this months challenge and Ususal thanks to The Dragon for starting the thread.

    Blimey that is a good perk of working for who ever you work for very MSE!! :money:

    Do they have a working party / committee with the caterers? if so you / your rep could suggest better options, ie more salads.
