    That's a massive loss for you Beanie; congratulations. I'm sure you knew you were due a big loss after weeks of only very small ones or none at all. I find the same thing happens to me sometimes.

    Nicki - I think you were very restrained at the Christmas party! If you cut your syns back for the rest of the week you'll probably be able to still have a small loss or at least a maintain.

    I decided to do what Maman has been doing with the alcohol! It was 3 G&Ts tonight rather than the usual 3 small glasses of wine so a few syns saved:D. Even within syns for the day which is unheard of for me on a Thursday evening - it's when my weekend starts:rotfl:.

    Fab loss Beanie! Bubbs go find half a pound of butter/marg, whatever you've got - that's what you've lost! I'm a slow loser whatever I do but any loss is all in the right direction. That being said, I do get your disappointment.

    Today was fine till this evening when plans went a bit awry and I've had a carb overload..wouldn't be surprised if a migraine is on the horizon as I have a host of weirdy symptoms beforehand including constant yawning, acute hearing, numb patches on my face and carb craving. All just in time for weigh in tomorrow...hey ho. Back tomorrow with the damage!

    Great losses beanie and lush . I'm absolutely thrilled for you both!:T:T:T

    I've probably asked before but how much more do you want to lose bubbs ? I'm sure you know the plan inside out but I will look carefully at your menus just in case. Haven't you had any tea tonight? ;)

    It's great how many syns you can save with gin denise . I know I'll be having a fair bit of wine at Christmas events but will try to substitute with gin whenever possible.

    I'm out for a 3 course meal tomorrow lunchtime. It's a fancy place so the portions are small but I haven't seen a menu yet.

    Hope your sleep did you good MrsR .:)
