hi, it sounds like you're doing really well, i love green days cause its just more satisfying esp in this weather!!! keep up the good work xxx

 

[funcurls]

Hi Donnie, long time no speak!! You sound like you're really on track now and doing great!! How's your son by the way?XXX

 

[Donnie46]

Thank you both.

I have turned vegetarian in the last few months for health reasons although it had been on the cards for a while, and doing all Green days seems to really suit me, and I have been losing weight well, and I have to say that I am enjoying being a 'veggie'...

I have recently been diagnosed with MS, and my balance is off at the moment and I can't stand too well, so I've not been able to go to class to be weighed, but I am still on plan and hopefully still losing - and I hope to go back to WI next week.

My son is OK, he is home now and progressing well, although he is facing more surgery on the leg before he can get a 'new leg' - but we are just taking each day as it comes, and thankfully he still has a positive outlook.

Love to you both x

Hi Donnie

I've just done a forum search for the phrase "curried beans" and your name kept showing up so here I am!

Your diary is great - lovely meals and you set it out so it is very easy to read. Best wishes and I will pop in again for inspiration.

 

[Donnie46]

Pop in whenever you like, I will help you as much as I can. X

I love curried baked beans and at only 1 syn a can on Green & EE they are an easy meal.

In fact I am having them today......

Hi again Donnie, food diary looking tip-top!! Glad to hear your son is doing well and remaining so positive! Hopefully the new leg will give him a new lease of life when he finally gets it sorted out! X

 

[Donnie46]

Well I've not been able to go to my class for 3 weeks because of health reasons, so I went tonight to face the music.......and I was amazed to find that I had lost 4lbs.

I am thrilled to bits, I have tried hard to stay on the plan but the odd naughty syn had started to creep in over the 3 weeks.

So I am very pleased with my WI tonight.
