Hi Stepout. Well done for getting to target and good luck getting back to it Never got to target myself but the only advice I can give is to watch your syns as you are going over a little and to also mix it up a bit. Once again good luck xxxx

 

[Stepout]

Hi liliferjade
Thanks for the good luck wishes
You're absolutely right I need to watch my syns - would ideally like to stick to 10 per day - mixing it up more would prob help with that - might try to follow the diet out the mag for a week to get some new ideas I really struggle with lunch times more than anything
Not had a good day today I made the fatal mistake of weighing myself this morning and the scales weren't being kind :-( its *week too so that's not helping either
