jennystarpepper said:@cymruchris - Yoghurts, wish I liked them, I have no dairy other than a bit of Feta... however I do love a big dollop of garlic yoghurt on a chicken kebab. SW would have been much better if I liked them.
Anyone who has any more 100 cal treats / suggestions would be appreciated.
Have a good weekend everyone.7 -
I’ve lost .5lbs somehow.For a week where I was determined to be good it all went to pot when I got a cold and lost the desire to eat healthily. My lovely OH went to buy some milk and came back with a 200g bar of fruit and nut that to my shame didn’t last two hours.
I even had a Chinese takeaway Friday night and finished off the prawn crackers yesterday.However, I have done so much walking that my thighs are screaming at me.
I start again today…7 -

And then I still had a beer last night and tonight I was wanting a glass of wine, but opted for hot choc. What do you all do - end of week, grown up treat? I generally don't have much time to cook, although I made pasta w vege sauce for dinner, at least it was home made.What is it? Need to know!
I can't drink larger / beer... grown up treat... long drink......( old Planet Holly glass) white spirit, lot's of ice and a clear mixer (no caffeine), couple of straws, a couple of fruit slices.
I know some do not drink, but for me it is a 'not going without' thing, wine / beer have too many cals.

thanks for the frozen yogurt tip Chris I'll look out for it when I next shop, I do like a good vanilla ice cream but decided it was best not to keep it in the house 😬
well done for the losses ladies 👏

Not the healthiest of days today, because we were travelling in the car unexpectedly, so I grabbed something from the supermarket on the way.
I could have chosen something from the fresh fruit and vegetable section, but instead I got the biggest fattest most delicious cheese and onion pasty EVER. and two small slices of chocolate cheesecake, which brings todays calories to 16,500 which is my limit, so the kitchen is firmly closed for the night.5 -
Honey one bad day does not mean it has to be a bad week I'll lend you the thick pen and ruler to draw a line under today. All I will say is I hoped you enjoyed every calorie 🙂Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage - Anais Nin5
