I'm back on WW having put on yet more weight. My problem is, I'll be working at a few festival and festival type places (think places with burger vans and not much else!). I really want to give it a go but not sure what to eat or how to count this rubbish, suggestions please?

Can you not take a little gas stove for cooking?

how many days are you going to spend at festivals? My advice is to relax about it but don't go overboard while you are there. so maybe do burger and chips but ditch the bun, avoid candy floss/ ice cream. Just accept you won't lose as much that week?

I think that's going to have to be the plan, it's at least 5 days :(

Can you not pack things like oatcakes and cans of ww tuna mayo for lunch? Cereal bars and fruit for snacks?

I'd go for a wrap if you can, two big chicken fajitas with sour cream when made at home only work out as 11 points. They're most likely made very similarly at a festival and the added extra of salsa and avacado that make them yummy don't add up to much.

I lost 3lbs at Glastonbury and drank and ate what I wanted. You'll probably be more active than you realise amd burn off many more calories than you think working a festival :-)
