    What's that about a work tuck shop kathrynha:eek:. It's no wonder it's an uphill struggle to eat healthily.
    Between tuck shop and people bringing in cake it's a nightmare here. We have tuck shop because there are no shops round here, and it's handy when you need chocolate and crisps but hard to resist in the post lunch lethargic part of the day.

    3rd attempt at posting on the thread today (It must have fallen out with me!)

    Shala - thanks for the new thread and charts. Can you please put me down for a new target of -7lbs please, I think this is being realistic given a week all inclusive holiday and 2 family birthdays out over the next 9 weeks!

    good Start with yesterdays WI -1lb :)

    Afternoon all :D
    Well done everyone who has lost:T:T

    Well, after weighing, measuring, calculating, counting, recording every morsel that has passed my lips for 3 days I was convinced I must be losing weight so I had a sneaky peak this morning and the scales have gone in the wrong direction.... :mad: bah.

    I'm on my own in the shop as DH is golfing and it was very tempting to eat pain au chocolate instead of binning it but I resisted, then took the half full bin bag and put it in the big bin outside so they're definitely out of reach. I also removed some Total 0% yogurt that went out of date but that doesn't have quite the same appeal. That's one of those products that we don't sell much of but you can guarantee if we haven't got any yogurt someone will ask for it. If we've got fruit yogurt they want plain, if we've got plain they want fruit.... :cool: I just make sure whatever we've got is SW/WW friendly to save throwing it away. :D

    Sympathy to Kathryn and ali-t - keep going, it will come good in the end. Yes, that's what I'm telling myself too.

    Lantanna - the blue cheese spread with boiled eggs sounds yummy, must get some. You sound in very good spirits, very positive. :j

    Bubbs - what did you use your HEB for in the end? Nuts and seeds might be a good option for you re the diabetes?



    I know you were looking for Lidl or Coop, but Morrisons do a fish cake that's only 2 syns and has a cheesy centre. Trouble is, I've never managed to find them in store!

    The SW search engine is a bit clunky to say the least! I find using less words gives better results but it doesn't always work. Another option is to check out a Facebook page called Syns Allowed.



    I'm surprised you've got feet at all after that! :rotfl: Great body magic.

    Well done Mad with Money and anyone else who has lost weight. :T

    Have a good day everyone.

    LL :)

    Lantanna - Australia for your 40th would be amazing and certainly gives you a target to work toward. Would love to go to Australia but don't think I'll ever be able to afford it now I've retired.
