Hello!!

Back on plan, feeling good, doing good!!

Did 20mins exercise DVD thismorning!

Breakfast was cereal and milk (A,B)

Having my lunch now: fruity pork casserole with cheesy mash (A,B,3) i got it from a slow cooker recipe book and adapted it to be a bit more SW friendly, didn't have to do much to it though!! Its very nice!!

My plan for tea is just lamb and veg.

Going to the pub later so savings syns for a pint!!

How's everyone today?? X

1 tsp mixed herbs
salt & pepper
75g chopped walnuts
