    My Journey to Target - Slowly Slowly Catchy Monkey

    :welcome: to my diary. Along with many of you I have decided to start a diary for several reasons: To be held accountable To keep track as once I hand in my lovingly filled in weekly diet sheets to SW each week I have no idea what I ate/drank the week before To see if any patterns emerge and...

    changes to plans

    I'm new but like to keep up to date I suppose that the only thing certain in life is change so we're in suspense at the moment...but like others have said if you are on a plan that is working for you then surely you can keep on making it work for you.

    Which is better...?

    Sometimes a salad isn't the best option once croutons and dressing is added. Croutons can rack up a whopping 7 syns :eek: If you are on EE, a carvery or roast can be a sensible choice.... you can still enjoy mash, gravy, a couple of roast potatoes along with free meat and veg and stay within...
