    It's hard to get steps in when your job involves being sat at a desk for most of the day. If you take public transport, maybe try walking home part way or walking for a few stops and then taking transport. I don't know how to get steps in for drivers apart from what has already been mentioned.

    New Year... New Start - onwards and downwards.

    Sounds like you've been doing great so far. Having a day off for a treat is not a bad idea and maybe the reason it's affected your reading on scales is something to do with ketosis having slowed down? (I may be completely wrong because I dont know much about VLCDs) About the wraps, could you...

    alpen

    Don't think it is. Think only the fibre one is but to be honest for like ages I didn't know and ate it. Though I lost more if I ate branflakes so the fibre definitely helps

    Morrisons best tomato and chilli pasta sauce

    So I was just reading through some of the syns threads and read that if a food doesn't have a free food allowance you can use 1 syn to 20cals rule which is what i have always done. But if an item has a main ingredient that is free food then it may be lower syns. Does anyone then know how many...

    Afternoon Tea on SW- how is it possible?

    Have a flexi syn day and you can most probably find syns for everything you eat. You can even est fewer syns during other days if you like but you don't need to. Flexi syn days are there for situations like this so don't worry!

    whats for lunch

    They are packets of pasta or noodles. You put it in a mug, pour hot water over it, mix and leave to stand for 5 mins. I've tried sweet and sour noodles which is nice and the cheese pasta which is nasty!

    Sorry if this has been posted before but the search function on my app is a bit rubbish.

I understand that they...

    Feel so naughty, but so happy!

    Very true! As for the quote in my Sig..i love it!! A person very close to me sent that to me when I was off plan for a month and struggling to get back on. Gave me a really good kick up the bum for sure!
  225. Aymz

    Here I go again...

    Wow well done on your losses so far especially since you've been to social events. You seem to have a good grasp on the diet and seems like a good idea to use flexi syns and reduce syns the day before. Good luck for the rest of your journey.
  226. Aymz

    Feel so naughty, but so happy!

    I have also read that evening eating is not the best of ideas but I think it is each to their own. Some things work for some people and not for others. I can eat in the evening no problem but i know it effects people i know. I guess you can trial and error with a week at a time? Lol
