    I've never thought of checking my head @bubbs. ๐Ÿค” How flat my stomach is, whether I look like thunder thighs and the clean jeans test are my usual markers. ๐Ÿคฃ

    That made me laugh @bubbs! ย Definitely never checked my head either! ย It's how the clean jeans fit for me too @maman and they were fine this week!

    Morning all!

    Well done @bubbs and the pasty looks lush! Skinny head made me giggle too!

    GWS @beanielou xx

    I enjoyed the baked fish and SW chips last night. Went to meet some friends after - they'd already had tapas so glad I got there a bit later. I had a 0% Tanqueray with slimline tonic, unfortunately it was FT so 2 for that in total, meaning I finished the day on 16 syns ooops. I was very low on syns on at least 3 days though, so hoping it has worked out. I've completed a paper food diary this week and it's definitely kept me accountable. Might grab another one today at group.

    Morning all, weather not looking too bad so think I'm going to get another load of washing done and out on the line asap.

    Well done @bubbs on getting to bottom end of target, that's great coming up to your holiday. ย You'll definitely enjoy your cream tea knowing that you have all those syns to spare!

    What did you think of the 0% Tanquery @Coxy11? ย I wasn't keen. ย Much prefer the Gordons 0% - as you've probably gathered from posts over recent weeks!

    Went well over syns yesterday but can pull back easily enough during the week, at least to get a STS which will be OK as in target.

    Today's plan:

    B - fry up - P; S; F; 2
    L - burger, onions, gherkin slices in WM roll - HEB; S; 0.5
    D - beef stew, mash - P; S; F

    HEA - milk
    HEB - WM roll
    Syns - sausages 2; burger 0.5; may have a mini mix lolly later 6

    Have a good day everyone.

  • Oooopppss not only did I have some prosecco yesterday, but also had a Thai takeaway - I did choose the boiled rice though!

    Back on track again today - I must keep focus.ย  I am going to try and not have too many syns and hopefully it will balance out by Friday.

    Todays plan is

    B - berries and yoghurt
    L - Ham and cheese (HEA) salad with watercress, tomatoes, peppers and spring onions with 1 tbs cranberry (1.5 syns)
    D - Sausage casserole (should have had yesterday) with 1 low fat sausage (1 syn) and broccoli, cauliflower and carrots
    Snacks fruit

    Change of plan for lunch! ย DH didn't feel very well this morning so decided not to have breakfast. ย As the sausages were cooked he had a sausage sandwich and I had a toasted cheese sandwich with pickles so used my HEB and 2nd HEA plus a bit of Speed. ย Also saved myself a whole 1/2 syn!

    We'll have the burgers for lunch tomorrow instead!
