Diet coke chicken for tea tonight. It was quite tasty. Better than the mushy pea curry anyway.

A colleague at work has commented i look like i have lost weight but then she probably just wants me to stop being so anal about everything i eat. Dh thinks my baby house has shrunk a bit and my pyjamas do fall down as i walk. Anyway today i have had:
breakfast - weetabix (HEA)
lunch: sushi
tea: oh dear Blush a sausage roll and pasta and sauce but in my defence mlord i then went out and did a run, i have made homemade soup for tomorow and have a yogurt and raspberries for laters.

Fish - put the creme egg in the freezer. It's much harder to eat so sometimes the craving can wear off before its defrosted enough to eat Wink

Oh badroly Sad re your biscuits. If only you had my biscuit resisting powers, and I had your Wine resisting powers and fish had our cream egg resisting powers.....

There would be no need for SW!

Can you find ways to make yourself not have the first biscuit?

Tiger I haven't been buying them as last time I filled the biscuit tin, the dc and their friends drilled it in one go Angry so I refused to fill it again. That was over a month ago. But I went to Lidl and stocked up again today, gave the dc 1 each then sat next to the open packet and just ate them mindlessly Angry.

I have struggled to stop eating chocolate (would eat a big bar each evening) but I'm obviously still craving sweet sugary stuff and all I have in the house is Biscuit...

Hmmm, it is difficult, and I know, sometimes only choc or biscuits will do. Do you like muller lights? The toffee ones are nice, and I have one of those if I fancy something sweet. I don't have a massive sweet tooth though so can resist. The frozen muller light was ok. I have two more in the freezer but I prob won't repeat that experiment!

I have the mullerlight and do use them and fruit but sometimes it's just not what I want - but that's why I'm here isn't it Grin

Don't dwell on the biscuits Roly - easier said than done I know. Write it off as a bad day and start again tomorrow. We're all in this for the long haul and there'll be some blips on the way. Just think about those Boden cords at the bottom of the recycling bin, you've done really well, don't give up.

Now if someone could pass on those Wine resisting powers I would be very grateful - thank you Grin

Thanks Beans and I know. I'm just really fed up at the moment so well able to beat myself up over something that wouldn't normally bother me Smile

As for avoiding wine/booze - I won't drink on my own so that only leaves Fri and Sat nights and usually by Friday I'm too tired to even be arsed to open the bottle Wink...

Badroly I find red grapes fab when I need something sweet. I keep them in the fridge they are delicious really cold Smile

Aw badroly sorry about the biscuit binge, my sweet go to's are vanilla and dark choc mullerlight, choc and fudge Alpen lights (2 as hexb or 3 sync each) or I suck on a mini dairy milk that I got a tube of for Christmas (2.5 syns?). Let it melt in your mouth it lasts for ages and then just enjoy the taste!

When I fancy junk food I have Pepsi Max, its syn free but very junk foody.

Blondes don't do it!!!

Sometimes I wonder if WW would be easier seeing as how you can have the ready meals, but I hate the kids eating processed food and assume it would be more expensive.

I know I've done well on this diet and sometimes I feel a bit patronising giving other people encouragement when they binge, I don't mean to I really hope we all do well. But I must confess I have a HUGE motivator to get me going, my ridiculously attractive, size 8, 5'7" best friend asked me to be bridesmaid. All the other bridesmaids are similarly slim and pretty. I don't mind being the ugly one but I'm not being the fat, ugly one!

You lot are brilliant you know! I was in a crap mood yesterday, all woe is me wallowing pityfest! I did feel bad about the biscuits but you know what, it doesn't matter. Today is a whole new (grey wet and dreary unfortunately) day.

Onwards and upwards ladies, we are all the mutt's nuts xxxx

Morning all!

Good on you Roly - new day today - onwards and downwards!

I need a good, (almost) syn-free day today to make up for the last couple of days.

B - Muller light and strawberries
L - Salad and prawns
D - Tomato sauce in slow cooker to have with pasta

S - I have alpen light bars and fruit lined up!

I did toy with WW but tbh I hate the idea of living on a lot of processed food and the portion sizes never seemed very, ahem, generous. I much prefer SW where there is unlimited amounts of some foods and we can all eat the same stuff.

Hope everyone has a good day, this thread is moving quickly so haven't read back properly but welcome to everyone that's joined us.
