NEW Kays Salad Challenge - APRIL to SEPT

[Kay003]

My appetite goes a bit funny at totm- normally I feel like I need carbs but at the mo small meals are satisfying. Odd.
Not a problem, I'm used to discussing toilet issues! I have IBS so generally a bit all over (again, totm throws this too!) but i have felt fine so far. Shall up the peppermint tea just in case ;-)
I should have a choice for lunch so I was thinking I'd go for a subway?! Then id just have to syn the sauce/dressing (sweet onion, my fave!)...
I may need Sunday as a day off though I'd prefer not to have one at all. It's up in the air whether I will be going out for tea with the in-laws-to-be or not but so close to the end I'd love not to lol x

Subway is a fab choice and oh no Sunday :sigh: can't stop anyone and wouldn't but its a day before weigh in, always good to have that one on plan if possible but I know we can't stop our social life either so its ok hun, if you need to go it will be fine, just drink loads of water to flush away whatever naughties your gonna eat if you do go in the end xx

 

[Kay003]

Thanks Kay, I'm glad I'm getting it right! My salad was really lovely and there was definitely plenty of green stuff underneath I also had some green stuff with my lunch xx

Now your going Turbo style with 2 salads a day you wanna go up to 3 litres a day ? then you'll be joining me and Upndown hehe xx

It sounds bad but I really hope we don't lol. Im giving it my all this week for a good loss ;-) We are going to a big animal sale type thing where breeders meet before the potential meal, so if we buy an animal we will have to go straight home..... Lol
If we do, I shall pick very wisely!

 

[Kay003]

Just a quick question, is canned tomato soup definitely ok on a red day or would it need to be syned? x

Is that home made or shop bought ? Shop bought has hidden sugars in them and some have added cream, depending which brand you are going for ? and whether it was reduced fat ? xx

*EDITED - excuse the dumbness, you said tinned so obviously shop bought xx

Yep Healthy Living one should be fine, have you tried WW one's I really like their soups xx

Yes, I've got a ww carrot and lentil one in, would that be better? xx

They would work better on the GREEN/EE days, but if your short of options then it will be ok, soup is much better than having carbs , but tomato one out of the two is a better choice on Red xx

 

[Poppet12]

Ha I'm afraid not, there would be lots of little Arthur's running around if we did! It's just reptiles and bugs :-/ on Sunday, I'd quite like a new millipede though!
Me and Arthur had big cuddles after my walk today x
Ps. Good to know re the soup- I have some WW tomato in x
