Pretty proud of myself for yesterday. It was weigh-day and I usually splurge a bit but I restrained myself. Hubby and I went to Tesco after class and bought sausage patties, English muffins and mac and cheese! I was either going to have a sausage and egg muffin or the mac and cheese for dinner. However, when I got home I pulled myself together and had a bowl of the syn-free veg soup my mum had made, which was lovely! Used my syns on a slice of bread and butter instead and a Hifi bar as a snack

So today...

Well done you - I am fairly certain that whenever I cave into something naughty it never tastes as nice as I imagined. Equally, think I don't want to eat invariably taste way better!!!!

Hope you are feeling better today too

Had a bit of a binge last night! My sweet tooth came out and I ended up devouring 2 Hifi bars, a (small) carton of chocolate milk, a graze box AND an entire tub of quark with 2 sachets of Options hot chocolate in it! That was ridiculous (luckily the chocolate milk was HEA approved and the Hifi bars were HEBs)! Anyway, hopefully that's out of my system now and I can get back on it today. Keeping the syns low today as damage control for yesterday.
