    Your right it is and I know that I can do it. I just need to get my head into gear and actually believe I can do it!

    The strawberries are very nice by the way. I figure that snacking on good foods will mean that I don't feel hungry and I wont want to eat bad food.

  • afternoon!

    Well I have just had a very big lunch (loads of salad, chargrilled Chicken followed by sticky toffee muller yogurt) But it was all on the diet :T See I can do it when I want to.

    So for this afternoon I still have some banana's and some more chicken to munch on.

    I've got loads of stuff to make nice slimming world desserts which I am going to have a go at tonight, but feeling good about it.

    Hope everyone else if having a good day x

    Sounds like a good idea. A couple of the WW meals are free or low syn on SW and are always handy for meals in a rush (but only if they are on offer, can be expensive normally)

    I'm very jealous about the 5 lbs by the way, that is amazing weight loss.

    Oh crap, I have been bad...so early in the challenge as well.. :o

    Hubby 'forced' me to eat chips at lunchtime, and I haven't done any exercise at all because he has done both school runs. AND I'm going out tonight, so I will have alcohol calories to content with. I'm going to have to dance around like a lunatic to burn them all off!!

    Dancing sounds like so much fun! I've not had a proper boogie in ages... Anyway naughty once in a while doesn't hurt, try and be good during the rest of the week.

    Well done Kathy, Bobbadog, Bambywamby and Madmoney on your losses (hope I haven't missed anyone?!). :T :T

    Lucy don't worry about the pound, it will easily come back off!
