    Thank you to the people that pointed out that extra dry martini was 2.5 syns for 50ml! I normally drink wine but like many on this thread can't stop at a glass or two and end up polishing off a bottle! Then crave crap. I didn't know if I'd like martini as I'd never had it. I was going to get...

    Super speed tomato soup

    Well, I have been eating my speed soup. I liked the idea of using it as a base too as it can get a bit dull everyday and it doesn't keep for long I find. Well, I just fried some onions and mushrooms and added some and used it as a sauce for pasta! Lovely used with HEXa cheese and filling! Going...

    What a tough week. Lots of Jubilee celebrations and on half term so time to catch up with friends. Also been really ill the last few days which hasn't helped at all. Luckily I haven't suffered too much on the scales. Wasn't expecting to lose anything because last week was a little excessive and...

    Well, it's been about four months since I was on last. Finally feel strong enough to be back. Life had been turned upside down but I'm feeling positive again. I went off the diet rail completely and utterly for quite some time, but have started to get back to normality. I promised myself that...

    I made this yesterday. As others said, I also mixed quark with some splenda and spread it over the top. It's and spongy and you could almost imagine you're being naughty. If it was next to a 'real' cake, you'd never go for it, but as a substitute to keep you on the straight and narrow - its...

    Feeling rubbish first week

    It's quite normal. It is because you have cut out sugar. Your whole body and mind crave it. It does pass. Lots of water helps. It's a big hump to get over, but once you do it'll be fine. Stick with it. Also remember you can syn for little sugary treats. I find a jaffa cake or two helps. x
