You can....but it will cost you 10 syns. Well, actually, 20 syns, as there are 2 pints there! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:

I was doing so well then I went for lunch with my mother, it wasnt anywhere fancy I chose the beef and veg soup, it came with a bread roll.But then mum ordered me a slice of apple pie that was topped with caramel, I couldnt resist and I ate it.
I thought the soup would be OK but when I looked it up it was 9 syns!
I still need to learn to make better choices.
OH cooked lamb steak with veg for tea which was free but I have messed up with the cake.
Im in work tonight so I will take a salad, fruit and mullerlight.
I suppose I need to learn to deal with these situations.

Shal. I wouldn't worry to much, it was only 1 day and you can get straight back on it and probably not do any damage and still come in with a loss even!! But the question is did you enjoy it?

I've managed to be really good again today. 8.5 syns, including my chocolate cream eclair! Still have a HE A and B to eat so may be having a cheese sandwich later .

Snaggles

Lucy, you are doing great - this approach seems to be really working for you! :T

Hi Gals and Guys,
i have been really good all week:A so i treated myself and my youngest to a portion if fish and chips from the fish shop which we shared,:cool: it will still be high in syns but i havnt used many this week so far im so full of free food that i cant face them during the day. i went to a cafe for lunch today with a friend and had the most delicious ham salad i have had in a long time,:A yes it has coleslaw but i didnt eat it :eek: , it also had a tablespoon of egg mayo which i did eat but counted the mayo as syns. while my friend had a milky coffee i had a diet pepsi, im so proud of myself.
My husband leaving me has been the start of my new life, i am now losing weight for me instead of trying to convince myself that he would fancy me more if i were slim, its a great feeling:j .
im off on holiday with him tomorrow tho so that is going to be awkward but we promised the kids we would have this last hol together, plus it has been paid for for months, my sister is coming too so i have a saviour in her:A .

Lucy you are really inspiring me, keep up the great work!

You have no idea how many typos I just had to correct pmsl

I'm thinking of starting to go to a class. I wanted to see if I liked the diet and felt I could stick to it first, and I think I can, but this week I am really floundering and think a class would maybe help me to focus back on it properly.

But I'm worried that if I had a bad week, I just wouldn't go to weigh in, and then it would be a waste of money (and I haven't exactly got it to throw away).

Those of you that go to the classes, do you think it helps?
