    Thank you Kathrynha for the chart & well done to the SOTWs.

    Congratulations Top Girl & Happy Birthday Tweets.

    Well it’s very cold here but no snow at the moment, though it did try to earlier today......as a result there’s no milk or bread in Tescos at all & people were resorting to long life stuff.......my attitude is if I run out of milk there’s always the wine lol!

    Really wanting comfort food but resisting - got my beef with ginger & pak choy ready for tomorrow.

    Kathrynha - is it ok if I let you know my target for the next challenge on Saturday? I’m just hoping I lose the Christmas gain in time lol

    My kind of thinking usually - although not at the moment:rotfl: - but not drinking much tea either!

    Beef with ginger and pak choi sounds fabulous.

    :

    Oh it’s my real comfort food & simple to make - beef, chopped ginger, chillis, chicken stock, dark soy sauce, as many mushrooms as you want, spring onions & pak choi. All in the slow cooker so the smell when you come through the door has you drooling lol

    Oh, and for the challenge, I'll aspire to my usual 1lb per week, ie 9lbs, but with a few celebrations over this period, I may be being a tad ambitious (as always). Thanks, Kathryn.

    Happy Birthday Tweets!!

    Evening all. Great loss Kathryn, you're on a roll again. I'll let you know my target after weigh in on Friday, if that's OK.

    I didn't forgo the chips tonight as planned but there were only a few, also had a small glass of wine, but I did resist a wonderful dessert menu. I ended the day over syns but I can make this up over the next couple of days.

    Tomorrow's plan
    B Banana and Alpen Light
    L WW wrap with chicken and salad, yoghurt and berries
    Snack Apple
    D KFC style chicken and SW chips with salad/veg

    Lots of chicken but it all needs to be eaten up... and I like chicken!
    Keep warm everyone.
  • Kathryn for the next challenge can I have 5 lbs please.

    I was going to do STS - which I have to admit I will be pleased with - but in for a penny in for a pound!

  • Hi! Can I please join the next challenge? I will aim for 9lbs over the 9 weeks. I have a son getting married in October and am about would love to lose weight before then!
