Now I'm calorie counting, I've cut my cereal bar eating down to one a day instead of two that I was allowed as a HEB.
The ones I get from Aldi are only 62 calories each and are packed full with orange and chocolate
I find that that they are a lot of calories for what they are. Plus since they are mostly sugar, you might as well have some nice chocolate instead
Have you heard of Bob Harper? He's one of the trainers on The Biggest Loser in America. He's wrote a new book called The Skinny Rules.
I haven't got it, but flicked through it on holiday and read online about it. I'm no wah following it, but there are two that I'm trying which seem to be helping. One, have a glass of water before eating and going to bed hungry. That last one is hard, but I think that helps. Apparently your body starts burning fat because it needs energy.

Healthy extra don't work by calories they work by the amount if fibre in them so u pass it out when u go to toilet. I asked by consultant why asda pitta was healthy extra which is 7 syns and I wasn't allowed weight watchers pitta that contains only 5 syns and her answer was the fibre in the whole meal will help u poo it out where as the weight watchers pitta wud just stay in u

That's what I like about cal counting you can vary what you eat
yes have heard of that and was thinking of giving it a go, will wait and see how I get on with EE. How are you doing? X

I'm not following his rules apart from those two. I'm going to see if I can get the ebook of it and have a flick through.
I'm doing ok I think. Went a bit over board yesterday, but back on track today. Even resisted a bacon and cheese wrap from Greggs! X

Its Friday!!!! Have not got any plans which I love, going to look for some Extra easy receipies online and read back through my old sw magasines. Will also try and go for a swim at some point.
(B) Oat so simple (A&B) Sugar (1) raspberries mixed in
(L) Innocent veg moussaka (2.5)pork pieces
(S) Pineapple, apple and muller light
(D) Chicken breast stuffed with little bit of light philly (1.5) bacon, sw chips and some veg for my superfree!
Burnt the bacon and chips a little bit but was still a really tasty tea. Just had a hi fi light (3) and some berries with quark mixed with white choc options (2)
Syns 10

(D) mushy pea curry with chicken and rice
(S) hi fi luscious lemon (heb)
3 syns - should be on 10 this week (consultants recommendation) but had loads on Wednesday so not going to stress

Loads of exercise:
