Slightly traumatised about the idea of going for Chinese afterwork tomorrow - unable to get out of it, can't seem to find any good options for a Chinese on a red day so just going to have no other syns & try not to eat too much!
Not a great plan as weigh in is on Friday morning!

That's pretty good going syn wise for a meal out. I love Chinese, think I'd have crumbled and taken to a dish of crispy shredded beef and smoked chicken. Drool!
Get what you mean though about it going straight to your tummy - drink plenty of fluids to clear it out.
I managed a whole 5 scan bran yesterday! Woo!
Going kayaking this weekend? Xx

Friday 27th April weigh in - STS
Still 189lb. Am pleased with that considering the carb fest I have been on recently coupled Ruth the Chinese on wednesday!
Time to knuckle down as this is taking too long - ideally want to hit 140 by end if this year, these last few weeks of no losses are time wasting!
Hopefully the kayak lesson on Saturday will help, along with the health spa swimming day I have planned with a friend on Wednesday
Also signed up for the manc to Blackpool bike ride - so REALLY need to get my arse on my bike and train

Sounds like you had fun though and that's the main thing. Pat on the back for getting back on it and that will help minimise any damage you may have. Life just happens sometimes and you gotta go with it.... It did all sound lovely though xx
