Donnajt's 2012 Diary...yes I'm back!

[Andrea81]

Ah now then, I'm not going to miserable rainy grey basildon (to anyone not Donna reading this, she said it first, I'm not just being deliberately disparaging about where she lives ) I would've made the effort had you been about. I'm going to the miserable hopefully not rainy fingerscrossed: ) grey City of Chelmsford. I will hold you to that Greek salad, lol. Thanks for letting me know (more than some of my "real life" friends have done). :sigh:

Hello my love.

Thank you for my birthday message - Amsterdam was wicked I ate so much though! I managed to continue my feeding frenzy up until last night when I realised that I felt rubbish and lethargic - so today I am back and I am going to give myself my next challenge.

Well done for getting back into your 16 day challenge - you seem to be going great guns. And I like your Mr Grey - I quite fancy one myself, I don't really have the space for it though.

Can I ask, what sun dried tomatoes do you use? And how many toms do you get for 1 syn? I know that olives are 8 = 1 syn. I fancy getting on the old Greek Salad vibe myself.

Hello lovely Donna, I thought I'd pop across and subscribe so I can have a good read later after my exercise....I am intrigued and fighting the urge to have a look at your Mr Grey :giggle: but be assured I will come take a peek and just hope you haven't ridden 7 shades of Sunday out of him before I get back :8855:

Toodleloo for now :wavey: xxx:hug99:xxx

Hello my little dope-cake - am v jealous of your trip to Amsterdam..its somewhere I we planned for our 40th birthdays until Noah showed up and put our plans back by at least 12 years lol

I used the Merchant Gourmet dried s-d toms, I rehydrate them when I am using for salad but I must admit I love greek salad with just cherry or baby plum toms. I don't know if this is right but I weight them before I rehydrate them so I think its about 4-5 for 2syns, but they are so flavourful and you can cut them so into little strips that you could probably just use 2-3 depends on how long your salad is going to list. Greek salad last two meals (if I am lucky!) in this house

Have you braved the scales yet?

Lovely Lily thank you for popping in - trust me the only person having 7 shades of grey knocked out of them is me - my Mr Grey is so domineering I can't even sit down and I only last a minute a time!!!

Yes, I think the reason behind my continuous eating is because the weed must still be coursing through my system! I have never seen these dried s d toms before, where do you buy them from and at which aisle please? 4 or 5 for 2 syns sound really good.

I have, 3lb on since last Thursday - I am weighing in on Friday so I am hoping it wont go up. A 3lb gain for 6 days off plan (and being really naughty with it!) is not bad.
