Change of plan for lunch! The baguette was a bit overcooked so too hard to use as pizza base so DH had it for this lunch just stuffed with salad stuff. I had a salad with some carrot sticks, cucumber sticks and sugar snaps along with a Tbs of hummus so a good reduction in syns down to 1! May well have some chocolate later instead!

Well done on the 1.5lb @bubbs - can you imagine if you'd weighed as usual tomorrow!!
I made the soup.....it is a bit bitter due to the shredded greens I suspect. It's also a strange brown sludge colour. I persevered though and have 3 more portions in the freezer for another time.
Full refund on it's way from train company. Compared to the new hotel and bus arrangements we are £2 up but 4 hours down in time. You win some, you lose some

Well done at getting the new low figure @bubbs.
For weeks I have promised myself fish & chips when I got to target. Today was the day, a bit of a guestimate on Syns as OH and I shared a large battered cod, so crispy and gorgeous, chip (small) portion was huge, but not a fan of chips so didn't eat very many. It is something I only ever ate 3 or 4 times a year as too greasy for me, but the new to us chippie is so different. Back on it tomorrow.The best thing about the future is that it comes one day at a time. (Abraham Lincoln)1 -
Delighted for you @bubbs. 👏👏👏Well done on your loss. And in only 6 days. 👍
Good luck with your walk @Coxy11. Shame about the hassle with the travel arrangements but you've got it sorted. Hope the sun shines on you and DSis, both literally and metaphorically. 🤗
That was a victory on the syns front @joedenise albeit by accident. 👍
I'm not a fan of corn on the cob either @bubbs. I think it's a bit like eating snails, the taste is only in the butter. I do buy baby corn as I like the crunch in stir fry and it's Speed but there isn't much taste on their own.
I've done my meal plan and shop today so hoping for a good week. Jeans felt a bit snug and 'thunder thighs' IYSWIM today so need to get seriously on plan.
Today's EE plan -
B- HEB toast, HEA 1 milk for drinks, bacon, egg (P), baked beans (F)
L- ham (P), veg hash and pickles (F, S)
D- chicken and bacon 'pie filling' (P, S), SW chips (F), carrot chips (S)
Syns - weekend wine 😁1 -
