Well, first weigh in of my 10 week holiday challenge and I've lost 6 pounds.

Now, with what I ate, Ishouldn't have lost 6 pounds but last Wednesday was 3/4 days before start of TOTM so I think I possibly hit it lucky with my starting weight because I think most of it was water retention.

However, I'm seeing it as a good start and now have 9 weeks to lose 14 pounds.

I'll worry about the other 100 I need to lose after that..........:rolleyes:

Hi,

I need help!!

2nd attempt at posting this.....

last week was 1st weigh in and........PUT ON 1lb, not surprising really as I didn't have a clue

i've tried again this week so i'll see how it goes tonight.
:EasterBun..ps this is sooo me



My question(s) however....batchelors chicken savoury rice - is this free on a green day? Is gnocci free on a green day?



thanks

Burlesque_Babe

the savoury rice is free on a green.

Gnocchi isn't generally - it contains flour, I've never seen a branded one which is free either.

Burlesque_Babe

This recipe for gnocchi with a tomato sauce is (if my maths is right) 35 syns for 4 portions, so 8.5 syns per portion.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/database/basilgnocchiwithsimp_74596.shtml

Every ingredient is free on a Green day apart from the flour which is 5 syns per ounce, so 7x5 = 35syns.

Well done on the 6lbs BB :T

ta spud...........like I say though I think it was all water related. The big test will be the coming week. It's still 1.5 pounds a week each week to get to my challenge target.

I'm trying really hard today, but am really craving something cakey/biscuity
