So there I was eating my healthy salad with tuna mayo and my husband enjoying the apple pie I baked him this afternoon with chocolate ice cream!! :sigh: 
On another subject....I read on another post that someone was getting out their 50 Free Green recipes book!! Now, why didn't I think of that?

Not so sure about that...scale was UP 1lb this morning...feel a bit exasperated about that!! Don't want to bore anyone with too much detail but I'm feeling perhaps the 85% choc is 'slowing' my system up...think I will have to get some 72% quick.
Jaffa, I know I've been 1-1.5 over my syns the last couple of days, maybe I should get back to 10? I know that's the rule...

Well....where to start! This morning at home I was down another 3/4lb. Weighed myself fully clothed and that meant I was at my lowest target weight permitted. But when I got to group I was 1/2lb under target!! Was not expecting that!! I'm sure I can get that back up again though! ha ha!!
Then we voted for Woman of the Year! I was one of five ladies asked to give a little resume of our SW journeys, so that was an honour even to be voted for. A lovely lady was the winner. Then...I won a raffle prize...basket of fresh veggies!!
So have been thinking about the salad challenge and whether to continue. I have certainly reined in my bad habits during last week which is a good thing.
I'm thinking that I'll have a carb option every day and see how I do with that?

Wow well done you
Quick buy a lottery ticket tonight !
You could do what I intend to do and weigh in with shoes on
I think I am going to keep up with proper traditional red and green days with hexs on both days as per SW and still try to keep to salad or soup now the weather is turning for weekday lunches
