Ya it is, but i got if off a child cooking webpage so couldnt be too hard lol (was looking for recipe idea for my toddler).

Yesterday went fine

Just fruit for brekkie after WI 0pp

L. 2 slices toast and butter with banana (8pp) bought the wrong bread by mistake thicker cut so 2 slices are 6pp wont be making that mistake again.

Early dinner. 2 slices toast and hoops (12pp)

Late dinner. Beef Chilli (6pp) couscous (5pp)

snacks. bag of Tatyo (5pp) and 2 flapjacks (8pp)

Daily 33/33

Yesterday went well but hubby bought me a large bar of cholocate only meant to eat half be before i knew it the whole thing was gone so only have 16 weeklies left and have not earned any ap this week so far as my back is still sore. But it is getting better each day so hopefully tomorrow will be able to get a walk in.

Back still pretty sore but will just have to get on with it hopefully it will sort itself out in a few days, no walks for me in this lovely weather

Serena i have worked out the muffins il list the ingredients below and the propoints i have given them so correct me if i am wrong with anything.

40g Courgette, 40g carrot, 2 tsp baking powder (0pp)
2 eggs (i used medium) (4pp)
4 tbsp milk (using skimmed) (1pp)
2 tbsp raisins (4pp)
2 tbsp sunflower oil (2pp)
150g flour (15pp)
30g light brown sugar (4pp)

That makes 10 muffins at 30pp so 3pp each now they are on the small side as they were for toddler but can spread it over fewer muffins and up the points.

Recipe sounds yummy and I'd say you're pretty spot on with your PP, I'd probably make 6 Muffins at 5pp as I'm happy to 'spend' 5pp on a substantial Muffin. Thanks for posting it Im hoping to make my Cheese ones tomorrow. X PS-Well Done on your 2lbs loss! PPS-Don't worry about the Choc, you had the Weeklies to cover it, everyone needs a treat and that was yours x

Thanks Charlene,

Not a great week last week back much better now but was feeling very down so mad at myself for losing track since september and have not go anywhere near hitting my target for xmas so that lead me to eat more (stupid i know but i eat when im depressed). Had a long talk with myself last night and re evaluated the situation back on track again from today, have adjusted my target for xmas to be a bit more realistic for me and hopefully i can reach it.

Hopefully i didnt do too much damage for WI wish me luck.

Hey Dianne, 1/2lb will come off as quickly as it went on, saving your Weeklies for the Wedding winds like a great idea, at least you can still indulge but know you are sticking to the Plan. Onwards and Downwards to next WI! X
