Hi hunni hope you've had a good day.
Food looks yummy as usual. I had actually forgotten that sugar free jelly was quite tasty. I need to get some more meringues though to have with the jelly and fruit

Hi Nic, today has been good thanks. I really enjoyed my WW petit pain, warm bread is 1 of my weaknesses. Your dinners always look tasty & varied. I tend to stick 2 the same foods, & not a fan of veg which is why I add lots of salad.
fruit/meringue/jelly was yummy also like jelly/yogurt or jelly/squirty cream & you can't beat a toasted WW wrap with strawberries/sweetener (I got a whole set of sweet teeth lol).
Hope all is going well, nearly another week gone & still in the zone

Hey Helen
Do you put the stawberries and sweetener in the wrap before toasting it? I try to eat a varied diet or else I get bored and lose interest in trying to lose weight. I have quite a tight budget at the moment as well as hubby has been off sick for a couple of months and has just gone back to work on reduced hours following major surgery. He may be on reduced hours for quite a while. That's why we quite often have the same meal a couple of times a week and I try and make meals from scratch as they often work out cheaper than convenience foods.
GReat to hear you're still in the zone and I am right there with you.

Sorry Nic for the delay. I only toast 1 side of the wrap and then slice the strawberries and place them on the non toasted side, sprinkle sweetener and then fold the wrap over, like a pancake. So it's crispy on the outside but softer inside. The strawberries sometimes fall out but feels like a treat.
I usually find eating healthy more expensive & try to vary meals, to avoid boredom too. Hope your husband is on the mend.
How are you getting on?

I only buy fruit that is either on offer or from the local market. I refuse to pay full price for it it's ridiculously expensive. It's not right that junk food is much cheaper either. I do manage to make healthy cheap meals like chilli or chickpea and tomato curry (which is yum). I usually make enough of these for at least 2 days and sometimes lunches as well. Your tea sounded lovely, I love pork steaks

I have tried Asda & Tesco but can't find the whole grain puffed wheat I've been looking forward to it since it was mentioned it an earlier post so ended up buying the sugar filled original Sugar Puffs. Only consolation is they are light & on guessing I'd say they're 3pp for 30g (without milk). Just going to work it out and have a bowl before bed

It's ok Helen, my diary goes a bit crazy at time!!! X

I couldn't find them either :-( Obviously people in Kent don't want to be healthy!!!
Do u have H&B by you? If so, might be worth looking for this...

Good morning Serena, thanks U R a Star
They don't look very appetising lol, & my fear is if they're allowed on the F&H list that I may add heaps of sweetener & eat them on a regular basis. I think I'll point the original Sugar puffs I bought, that way I will only have them in moderation. I did enjoy a bowl last night & strangely when I compared it to the wholegrain 1, they were both 3pp for 30g (dry). That said I realise wholegrain is healthier with much less sugar. Also at £2.80 (on top of the Special K bought for my son & Shredded wheat for me), every penny counts so they will be getting eaten.
thanks for looking out
Any fun plans this weekend?

Day 7 - Weight loss this week is 4lbs. Very happy with that after I STS last week. It seems F&H is definitely the way to go for me. Plus I've drank my 2.6l of water every day (thanks to Serena posting the app), so I'm back on track.
my usual weigh in day is Sunday but I have a planned night out this evening & don't want a weight gain in the morning, to ruin my focus for next week. My aim is to fix the damage during the week
Usually I wouldn't plan a night out so early into healthy eating, but I haven't seen my friend for ages and rarely go out.
I hope you all have a great weekend
Happy Helen
