I have a real sweet tooth and I like to snack on mini twister lollies (great in this hot weather!) which are 1 point each. Also the tubs of min Cadbury cakes are quite good - 1 point per cake.

I haven't had the Skinny Cow ones before but I'll have to give them a go.

hi dee dee this is my 2nd week of ww so im a newbie as well so welcome and lets all help each other

I made the butternut squash soup and was plesently surprised how nice it was .. peeling and chopping a pain but soup delish and might try different combinations with it as well..

we had luch and had a ww dessert and i made sure i got my full points worth by scrapping the pot to oblivion hee hee..

ive been feeling quite stuffed with the food which i thought i wouldnt be and enjoy having the snacks to have when i get the munchies..

Hey, I would never peel a butternut squash before cooking it, I would whack it in half and roast it for most things before using it, a nicer taste too. Then the skin just peels off if you are making soup or you can eat it too

Morning all,

Oh I hate Monday's...

Bad bad bad weekend foodwise for me but hey ho 5 days on and 2 off each week is a good balance!! It's more than half anyway

Weetabix bar and choc yogurt for breakfast today, tuna mayo WW roll and frazzles with lemon meringue bar for lunch and who knows what for dinner!!

Love the skinny cow ice creams and went to buy more but actualy got exotic solero's instead though have yet to work out the points but fancied something fruity Oh Dee-Dee I have SUCH a sweet tooth its unreal! Moonflowers - well done for keeping control during the buffet.

With all this talk of butternut squash I may have chips for dinner...

I had the solero exotic on Saturday, it was just soooooooooo hot & I was really thirsty. I looked it up on esource and it's 2 points. Some of the Solero are less points, dont know why exotic is more. But still better than going mad on a Magnum or cornetto - and actually I prefer ice when it's really hot. Have only got 2 skinny cows left, will have to go shopping for more if the weather's giong to heat up.

On the bright side tho, I dont eat much when it's hot but drink loads of water instread

Moonflowers

good luck at your WI

I cant go to mine tomorrow cos I'm present delivering for my niece's birthday. Wondering whether to try to get to another meeting later in the week or whether to just carry on & go back next Tuesday. I wont go mad cos I'm not going, but scared that gonig on the wrong day will mean I might not lose next week as it wont be a week before I go again.

Anyone any thoughts?
