Wow you're doing really well! I love your menus

Are you doing it officially online or on your own? xx

 

[Donnie46]

Thank you both, I am doing it on my own....I bought the lastest SW diet folder off Ebay and just started from there.

My menu's are just the sort of food I love, I don't eat a lot of meat just chicken & turkey really, but I love fish, shellfihs and Quorn products..

Thanks for the help with syns, I was wondering if I should have more of them especially as I have a lot of weight to lose, so I'll try that this week. X

Have you tried using Frylight?

Just a thought to add variety to your eggs etc., have you tried frying in Frylight? I love eggs or bacon or mushrooms fried in Frylight spray.

Thank you Maid......I do have Frylight in my kitchen cupboard and I use it a lot, but I've not fried eggs yet, but I will give a go thank you for your suggestions...xx
