    Day 2 done and dusted, glad it’s Friday tomorrow as I have my roasted veg salad for the third day in a row :-)

    It was my 3rd day in a row with my soup too so I'm also very glad that it's the weekend. Happy Friday:j

    Glad to see everyone is doing great. Me not so much :o . I can take in lunches no problem. My issue is I also like a cooked breakfast from work...meaning I'm too full for lunch :rotfl: . Can't win. Need to get out of that habit asap. I've also managed to reduced my coffee intake to one a day :j so that's a bonus I suppose.
  • Mission accomplished that’s three days done, going to get busy with the soup maker this weekend, hope everyone has a lovely weekend x
    Worrying won't stop bad stuff from happening, it just stops you from enjoying the good.
  • Dy 2 under my belt. Had soup both days and yogurt and banana for breakfast. I'm quite happy having similar food during the day at work so long as I can have nice dinners. I forgot my fizzy water today and would normally have bought some but I stuck to tea as I have loads of tea bags in my desk drawer. Loving this challenge to be fair as it just makes you think a bit more x

  • Hi all

    Took the left over chilli to work and food for my tea break yesterday so that's 2 days for me. I've also put a tin of soup in my locker as a back up incase I leave my lunch at home or something. Just need to get a coffee cup I can take with me in the mornings, the one I had needed binned a while back and I've not replaced it. That way I can make a latte in the morning rather than getting a c0sta each day on route :o
    I'm not a muggle...I'm just magically challenged
