Ahhhh, thank you 
I just got back from WI, and lost 0.5lbs. I know it's not great, but Im happy - for some reason I was expecting a gain - I had a good loss last week and I just have to remember that.
I nearly cried twice at WI - once, there's a 66 year old man there, his daughter in law just gave birth to twins, making him a grandad for the first time - and hes lost 5 stone - he said now he will live longer and will be there at their 21st birthday - and he can go to Disneyland now! And another lady, she's lost 2 stone in 12 weeks - her son's getting married on the weekend - she originally bought a size 20 outfit, then took it back to change for an 18, and now she's had to take it back to change it to a 16! Inspirational!
I think I'm going to jump on the fishy week bandwagon! Well, apart from tonight's dinner as I have lamb!

Tomorrow's going to be a bit of a test for me - making batches of biscuits and rocky road for my son to give his teachers - no licking the spoon!
Then, in the afternoon I'm having six fillings! I've never had one before so no idea if it's going to affect anything like if I can chew for a while?!

Day 36 - Thursday - Extra Easy - Syns 9 (21/40)
Breakfast:
2 Weetabix (HexB)
FF Onken Biopot Vanilla Yoghurt
Strawberries, Raspberries, Grapes
Lunch:
Jacket potato
Tuna with 2 tbsp extra light mayo (1 syn)
42g low fat cheddar (HexA)
Side salad: lots of lettuce, bit of carrot, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, balsamic vinegar
Alpen Light (3 syns)
I made the stuff for the teachers and have to confess at tasting both - about a 50p sized biscuit (non-iced) and a 10p sized piece of rocky road, which was made with 70% choc, and had a bit of malteser inside. I'm thinking to syn them as 5 syns in total. Hope that's ok.
Dinner:
Crab, Tomato & Chilli Pasta - I used 2 tsp of Lurpack Lighter (serves 4) - so 1 syn
Tenderstem broccoli & carrots.
Mullerlight
MOUTH SO NUMB! I only ended up with one temporary filling - apparently I have hypersensitive dentine or something like that - where I can feel the pain in my nerves even though she's no where near it - so I had 5 injections! Going back next week for more torture and if they can't do it I have to be sedated! Had to eat on one side of my mouth, couldnt really taste dinner. OH said I had it all over my mouth haha

This is what I made today
I'm quite proud of myself that I didn't scoff half the lot down my neck, which is what I usually would have done. Now I just need to hope the leftovers get eaten up quick by the rest of the household!

well done on the 2lbs loss. Looking at your stats, you haven't got much to lose until you are at target. So with that in mind 2lbs is a fab loss.
When I dieted before, as I got closer to target, the weight didnt come off quite as quickly as it did at the start of my diet.
You haven't gained since you started that is the main thing and you had 2 weeks where you lost 3lbs, which is brilliant.
Keep it up, it wont be long till you reach target.

You're over halfway there! Yayyyy, go Alice!
Happy birthday to Lexie I think your treat of three mouthfuls of cake was well deserved - you're an amazing baker by the looks of things! I thought I'd commented on the biscuits and the rocky road, but as I just scrolled up, nothing! It was probably because I started drooling all over my keyboard hehe...
Have a wonderful day, whatever you do! xxx
