    Back from group and I've decided the scales is broken :rotfl: Nevertheless I'm going to report my loss as -10 lb please kathrynha :rotfl: Which is just absolutely ridiculous :rotfl: I'll be amazed if there's any loss next week after that. Going to have a bakewell tart to celebrate which is tiny and 10 syns :eek: but it's within my syns. Last time I joined SW I lost 5.5 the first week so was hoping I'd eek it out to 7 this time. I must have been retaining a lot of fluid after Xmas. The mad thing is there was another girl who lost 1.5 more than me :eek: My consultant was thrilled with herself :rotfl:

    Well done

    Wow WHIPLASHY, I’m flabbergasted at that huge loss!! Well done :T:T:T no wonder you felt smaller! Keep up the good work because if that’s not enough to give you momentum, I don’t know what is!

    I’ve just had quite a few Terry’s mini chocolate orange segments. They are one syn each and I’m well within my syns today. One more day til my WI, I’ll aim to be super on plan tomorrow.

    Food will be...

    Breakfast - yoghurt with berries, honey and some heB all bran
    Lunch - leftover SW veggie soup with one slice heB bread
    Dinner - SW baked bean lasagne with salad greens

    Syns - 2 for the honey

    Good evening.

    Hope you feel better soon Kathryn.

    WOW Whiplashy that's an amazing loss, well done!

    Tomorrow I hope to go for a late WI in a different group, if I feel well enough, don't want to go all sneeze and stuffynosed and spread my germs!

    Will report back after WI, if it happens it will be the last for a few weeks.

    Please if any of you go to group, can you let me know when the special offer of countdown with free book returns? Is it for 12 weeks only or 6 weeks too? Thank you.
    Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).

    Well done on the loss Whiplashy, that's amazing!
    My plan for today is:
    B: Boiled Eggs and fruit
    L: Tuna & Quinoa Salad
    D: Not sure, but probably a salad in anticipation of tomorrow morning's weigh in (gulp).
    Body magic today will need to be housework tonight - the house is a complete mess!
