Hi :wavey:
Hope you get on okay tonight. At first there's quite a lot of information to absorb, but you soon get the hang of it.
This forum is brilliant for support and tips, and a food diary is the best way to keep on track.

Hi & welcome to the forum, I think a diary is a fab idea, I also take pics of my food which helps me.
Exactly, there is so much info & it can be a tad confusing.

Hi all.
Thanks a lot for the comments
So, I had my first weight in tonight. I lost 4 pound, which is not brilliant for a first weight in... but I don't mind that much as it was Easter, and I did have a 'little' chocolate!
I seemed to go off a bit 3 days in due to a meal out with friends, but I'm defo motivated for this week coming!
I'm going to try and exercise a lot more this week too!
As I said, I was going to post a food diary every day, but I didn't seem to get around to that due to working non stop this week!
I will try and get and do that this week tho

Hmmm mousse sounds good.
Just made a few. They don't taste that great, but it'll do for a diet chocolate fix!

syn free mayo
Homemade mayonnaise.
Mix together 6 tbsp of fat free fromage frais, 2 tbsp white wine vinegar and 2 tsp granulated artificial sweetener. Blend 1 tsp mustard powder with 1 tsp water and stir into the dressing. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and hey presto, Free mayo! If sealed in an air-tight container and refrigerated, this will keep for up to 5 days.
bit of a hassle but will last you best part of a week
