I was having muller lights but found them quite watery. At the moment I treat myself of an evening to a bowl of fruit with Danone Shape Lasting Satisfaction yogurt on the top.
These yogurts are very thick and fruity and free on red and green days and are supposed to fill you for longer.[msntongue]
Frances i know you must be disappointed but sick with it and you will see results[grouphug]
Paula good luck for later[msnsmile]
Hi everyone, sorry not been posting much. I’ve got things going on at the moment meaning I’ve not been at work every day and have been all out of my usual routine. But I have been reading and trying to keep up to date with whats going on.
Won’t try to mention everyone/everything – just say well done to the losers and hope everyone is feeling more healthy than they were a few weeks ago.
Julie – only 29 days…… OMG – you lucky girl you’ll soon be back home at Celebration

0.5lb off
I know what I've got to do and I'm determined to have a better loss next week, 13.5lbs off in just 8 weeks so I am still pretty pleased. Came away from class armed with my new Food Directory.
Someone came into my office today who I haven't seen for a while and they commented on my weight loss so that made me feel pretty good. Also I can now take off my jeans without opening the zip or button[laugh] and I've had to put two new holes in my belt.
well done Paula [clap][clap][clap]
i can do the same trick with my jeans too, walking the dog i have to stop every now n then to pull them up, it feels great doesn't it? [msnsmile2] i also no longer need to undo the button when i sit down to eat like i used too [msnembarrased]
Marie, thanks for the tip on the spinach & ricotta sausages - I have tried to find them in Tesco but they must be very popular as twice now they have not been on the shelves. Also went to Sainsbury's today to look for the diet scales. I couldn't find the 75p ones but did manage to get neat little pack-away scales for £2.99.
Paula, hope the class went OK tonight. Thanks for the yogurt tip, I too find the Muller light very thin - I am used to the thick creamy greek style, so will definitely try the Danone Shape.
Frances keep positive [grouphug]
Diary today:
Oats so Simple HEB with skimmed milk - HEA
Ryvita, cottage cheese, tomatoes and cucumber, banana
Cheese & Leek sausage (7 syns) with mixed Salad, fruit salad and muller light
Plan to have milky coffee with rest of milk allowance tonight
Total Syns 7
Syns for yesterday should be 14 as I worked out the sausage calculation wrongly - it should be 7 per sausage.

I does feel good Marie, I don't really want to shop for anything new just yet. I've pulled off a belt loop on one pair as I kept grabbing the loops to yank them back up.[msnsmile2]

[grouphug] Frances - keep going and you will get there
I have had a really bad few days foodwise [msnembarrased][msnembarrased] DH was away and the choccy in the fridge kept calling my name [easter1] To top it off totm came along (which actually might explain my need for chocolate)
The result of this was another week staying the same - I feel I have been lucky with that as I expected a gain for sure. Tried harder the last couple of days as I am really peeved with myself as I am struggling and Florida is only 7 weeks away [msncry]
Anyway yesterdays diary
weetabix & milk (HE A&B)
huge fresh fruit platter (strawberries, plum, pineapple, melon, kiwi, dragon fruit, mango, peach)
dragon fruit was [sick] so wont be eating that again !!
homemade veg & potato cakes with grilled lamb (HE B)
maltesers (9 syns)
total syns = 9
Been out for a bit of sun today whilst watching the kids swimming - most days 30c+ here now (same temperatures as Florida [msnsmile2])
Hope everyone has a great Easter weekend
Elaine
