Lovely isn't it, but sorry i can't help you - haven't been into Marks for an age.

i had another good day yesterday although i had 15 sins. I know that you're allowed between 5 and 15 but I would like to keep it low in the week so if i go out at the weekend then it's more flexible.

i'm doing a veg lasagne tonight. Anyone remember how they make the cheese sauce that goes on top? i'm thinking it's VLF quark or yoghurt mixed with cheese and egg???

I weighed myself last Thursday when I started this plan and I was 8 stone 10. I know this won't seem much to some of you but im only five foot tall and quite petite. Ive never been this heavy and used to hover around 7stone 2 and 7 stone 6 when I was really skinny. I would be happy now just to be 7 stone something!

Thing is last week I was in the throes of pmt and so I think some of that weight was water retention. I weighed myself on Sunday and was 8 stone 7½. Im sure I didn't lose 2½ lbs in fat in just a couple of days so Im going to take 8 stone 7½ as my starting weight. Do you others have any trouble during your time of the month? Im also on the pill which makes me just want to keep eating.:cool: Everything just seems to be against you when you're a woman. I have two fussy eaters in my family too who like all the unhealthy foods so Im having to cook for them and do my own meals separately, which doesn't help.

i sympathise with the picky eater thing beachbeth.
My eldest is really iffy about food and doesn't like stuff to be 'mixed up' (and he's 11 so i can't even say it's a toddler phase!!) Red days are fine - meat and two veg go down a treat. i
I've got so cross with it all now that i cook what everyone else will eat and if he doesn't like it he is capable of fixing beans on toast (but only if the beans don't touch the bread:rotfl: )

What ages are your picky eaters? Can you gently introduce them to the healthy stuff?

I normally weigh a couple of pounds more at my TOTM, so I'm not expecting much of next week!

I'm quite lucky in that DH will eat pretty much anything that I put in front of him, and DD has done a massive amount of growing up this summer (not sure if it is connected with starting seniors today!) and is getting a lot happier to try new things. She'll also eat her way through things that she doesn't like much and then just ask that we not have it again/very often, so much easier to work with. e.g. normally when I do a beef casserole she moans as beef (apart from mince) is her least favourite meat, but I did one for last night with bovril and carrots and onion and she said she really liked it. I nearly fell over LOL. And she ate the cabbage without a big scene. Too much to hope that we are over the pre-teen strops at a fortnight short of 11, but at least she is getting more human again!

Daft question, chapesses! Is chicken/beef bovril free on a green day or just on a red day? I am guessing it might be. If not free on a green day is there a stock that is? Just thinking about my lentil bolognaise for tonight - would be tastier with stock rather than just water.

Anyone who goes to Starbucks etc - try the fruit teas. The dark berry ones are nicest (blackberry/raspberry etc) - these are syn free (if you don't add sugar which you shouldn't need to!) :j
