    Hello all

    Am finding half term a hungry time. Work is so regimented by bells and class times that there is so little room for sneaking in the extra syn or three! Now, I'm faced with a kitchen which is calling me - manging to fight it so far, but boy oh boy, am I hungry!

    WI for me this evening so fingers crossed I make the 2stone award. Certainly not for want of trying.

    Hope everyone has a good day.

    Go Ahead products are generally horrifically high syn, i give them a wide berth.

    Hi all,

    Hope everyone had a great long weekend. We didn't do much except DIY, damn house (see sig :( ) but at least it should have burned some calories. Went to see the Olympic torch on Fri but I just drank diet coke and we went home reasonably early to a tea I'd made the night before - I know if we get in late and hungry OH will want takeaway pizza or something equally naughty and I'll get talked into it, so pre-empted it with something I prepared earlier!

    Anyway, had weigh in on Mon - was hoping for 2.5 to get my 1.5 stone but ended up with a 4.5lb loss and got SOTW :) Kind of surprised - stuck to it all week but didn't do anything different to the previous few weeks, other than walking to work a couple of times- maybe it was that?! Anyway, need to be super careful this week as we're going to a BBQ at the weekend and staying over, so wine will definitely be involved! Going to try and stick to around 5 syns a day for a few days to give myself a bit of leeway.

    Interesting to read about people doing the 30 day shred - was reading about it yesterday and thought I might give it a go...

    Anyway, today's menu: EE
    B: Bran flakes (HEB), milk (HEA), banana
    L: L/O chilli & rice, bistro salad (becoming addicted to this salad, having it with everything!)
    T: HM chicken kiev (3), SW chips, carrots, broccoli
    S: Mini milk (1.5), strawberries, grapes, WW yogurt
