1st morning - so far so good.....

2 x seeded toast with low fat spread and marmite (3.5 points)

and will eat an apple before I go to the gym for my session with the trainer...

Not sure what to have for lunch - should have made a plan really... Will check the fastt for inspiration

But got a stir fry planned for tonight in honour of chinese new year...

How's everyone else doing?

I was a member in the summer/ autumn but stopped going due to personal stuff at home. I went back the other week and found that I'd put on 3lb in my 3 months off. In my first week I lost 2lb, so I'm nearly what I was when I stopped. If I look at my starting weight from the summer, I'm still 9lb down!

I find planning lunches helps. This week I've made 2 batches of soups- a pea and lettuce soup (2pts a bowl) and am going to make some roast squash and chickpea soup for later in the week (will prob work out at about 2 pts a bowl as well).

I pay for the monthly membership and find the online service invaluable. I can put the ingredients of my recipes in and it gives really accurate points values per portion. It helps me keep on track by writing EVERYTHING down. I only wish it would work on my iPhone!

If so I might have something for you... I was ent a soreadsheet a long time ago and it's GREAT!!!

PM your email address if you want it.

No, they don't really! I love the online tracker but it works with flash, which don't work on my phone!

hot.chick

ggrrr.. shame... maybe some other technical wizz might be able to help...

PT session over and a 5 point lunch down, poached eggs on toast, no very imaginative will make some plans for the rest of the week tonight!

How's everyone going today???

As you can see from my food today I tend to graze my way through the day.

Fruit and fibre 40g 2.5
½ pint SS milk for day 2.0
Asda fruit salad 1.0
Beef jerky 1.0
Quavers 1.5
Salad 1.0
WW Black forest bar 1.5
Irish Stew 6.0 Home made - put it in the slow cooker before I left for work.
WW Carrot cake 1.0
2 litres of water and so far 3 cups of tea and a cup of coffee (all decaf)

I am on 23 points, but after being bad at the week-end, will try to save a few each day to make up.

Out to a wine tasting tomorrow - 6 glasses of wine paired with 6 courses of food. Oh dear.
