Thanks, I know what you mean...I need to get in the shower!! lol

 

[Jaffa Cake]

I am going to the gym then taking stuff back getting my new glasses adjusted shopping etc so I will shower and wash my hair later.

Right I am up and scales indicate I might have lost the bread bloat from Saturday

Will definitely have a RED day today to get back on track before weigh in tomorrow

You might have to click on it to make it bigger.

I checked and they are still definitely a hex b for 5. There are other flavours which maybe Holland and Barrett do but my Tesco only sells the plain ones

They are found next to the snack a jacks ryvita etc. Note the kallo ones are not a hex as not enough fibre.

 

[janetelizabeth]

Well done for losing your bloat too!!
I checked the supermarket compare website and looks like Asda sell them too...in sesame and in soy linseed & chia. But...they are sold out! No where else lists them except Tesco of course. Thanks.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

The sesame and soy linseed is also 5 thins for 1 hex b but I have never seen them

 

[janetelizabeth]

Just checking, are the thins the round ones in your pic?

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Yes straight from packet to plate !!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Oh right...I know Ryvita do 'thins' (wheat) which are a different shape.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

These are purely made from corn completely and naturally gluten free.

I feel like we're diving back into the salads to help us get back down the scales...yes?
Nice food again.

Hope weigh in is OK for you tonight...

 

[Jaffa Cake]

To be honest I generally have salads for lunch or soup but it has got me back in the swing of red days

I am out tonight straight after class for an Indian with all the social team. We go out every couple of months

 

[janetelizabeth]

Good for you and the social team... I think our's have had evenings out but I'm fairly new so haven't heard of any so far. Besides they look like a girls night out with everyone ending up legless...!! Not for me at all.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Our evenings out involve food and lots of it usually the local Chinese restaurant but this time we are trying the Indian around the corner.

We don't go to the pub or anything like that

 

[janetelizabeth]

Obviously a better class of social team!! lol

 

[Jaffa Cake]

Well would you believe I lost a staggering 2.5 lbs then went out for whacking big Indian meal !!!

I was shocked at the scales as I certainly didn't expect to lose that much especially as my scales didn't indicate that.

But something upset my stomach over the weekend so it had a bit of a protest and I don't think I retained much food on Sunday and yesterday and even today up to a point.

 

[janetelizabeth]

While I wouldn't wish an upset stomach on anyone...2.5lbs down...is brill !!! I'm really happy for you Jaffa and I hope the Indian meal was enjoyed by all.

 

[Jaffa Cake]

The meal was wonderful thank you and we are going to the Greek restaurant next time probably January February time as November is a fish and chip supper for Christmas at one of the girls houses.

Unfortunately I obviously suffer a lot with my stomach and one bad patch I lost half a stone in two weeks !!

 

[janetelizabeth]

Phew 1/2 stone would be a huge drop...hope you're feeling more settled now.

Those meals are something to look forward to...I really like fish & chips but haven't had any for ages!

 

[Jaffa Cake]

If I had lost anymore I would have had to see my Dr but as it was I put a couple of lbs back on the following week.
I was having major stress in work and it was badly affecting my health.

So I will keep an eye on things and try not to get too upset if I put on next week
