Hey! Your diary looks great to me. Just a couple of thoughts:

I know it's a hassle sometimes when you're working... but have you thought about making yourself a free lunch instead of buying a sandwich? You could make a massive egg salad.. or turn the day into Mix2Match and have an egg and ham salad. Or you could make your own sandwich at home and take it into work using bread as your HE and fill it up with free foods. A squirt or two of salad cream or low fat mayo would only be a couple of syns.

Sometimes I take a Bacholars Pasta n Sauce (free) into work and make it in the microwave. That's much more filling than a sandwich! Or maybe you can buy a jacket potato and beans/salad?

9 syns is quite a lot to use up for lunch everyday I think. You could have a couple of glasses of wine at the weekend for that!

Also, you've mentioned a pear and a fruit salad which is great... but have you had your five a day? I know this is hard work sometimes too and I'm the worst for it... but it's worth trying to fit in some veg alongside your meals if you can.

I'm sure if you stick to what you're doing you'll loose weight. It's good to hear you're enjoying it!

Enjoy...
