Thank you so much, I am finding keeping a diary with pictures helps to motivate me as I can look back and see how well I am sticking to plan x
Do you have a diary? X

Hiya summer,
They are called lemon drizzle and if you don't have them in your life you need them, me and the bf keep fighting over them even though we have choc fudge, summer fruit, apple sultana and cherry bakewell ones in the house too lol x
I will look for your diary, you should try it, It really motivates me to take pictures as it makes me think about what I am eating even more and you can see how well you have done each day x

It is indeed the lemon drizzle and my favourite bar, I had a orange muller with the sprinkled chocolate yesterday and that is amazing too! X

Ooh I need to look out for lemon drizzle! The shops near me only seem to have choc fudge or double choc so these would be great for a change!

I used to eat salt and vinegar crisps a lot and the popcorn really helps the craving and feels like a snack in the evening but isn't too high in Syns
my SW consultant checked the syn value on the app thingy for me LittleOne83

Fab thanks BinkyBonk. I need to have a high salt diet and finding healthy high salt snacks is proving difficult. But these will help x

You really have got the hang of SW, your food looks amazing Are you finding it easier than calorie counting?
I love the low syn popcorn that's around at the minute, tesco do a thai red curry flavour in a bigger bag for 4 syns, I take this to the pictures with me
Hope you have a good weekend x

Thank you Barb, I am loving the plan and have found it fits In well with my lifestyle, it is much better for me than CC. I think the mindset of CC is eat whatever you want up to your calories then you have to stop, where as SW is making me want and enjoy plenty of healthy foods and naughty treats in moderation, which I seem to be doing and hope to continue for life
I am really enjoying popcorn as a low sun version of crisps, I saw a lemon sherbet popcorn today in tesco, thought it sounds a bit weird, I am loving the sainsburys salt and vinegar ones though
Hope you have a lovely weekend too x

I agree. I've never done a 'diet' as they're just not sustainable and don't teach good eating habits. With sw I'm eating so much more fruit and veg than I ever have and am actually enjoying cooking.
Off to find the popcorn tomorrow too!
