These sound like they are like the cake in a mug! Very similar ingredients. I will be giving these a try with the quark topping

Yes try the topping - I wasn't keen - they keep at least a week in a plastic box - that's if others don't develop a taste for them LOL! Just made some sesame bars but didn't work out syns b4-hand - they're 1 HEB plus 1 syn!! Hope the family like them more than the brownies!!

Gosh u must be a quick reader to get to last week!
Hello all. I have not been feeling well all day. Didn't really do anything but sit around watching films on Netflix. Those Pringles have a lot to answer for and they will not be passing my lips again anytime soon. I still feel thirsty despite drinking lots of water today and I felt weak and lethargic. I went outside to go for a walk in the sunshine this afternoon but I didn't get far before I turned and came home again.
The carb cravings have continued too. I tried to ignore them but when they were too strong I ate bananas. So I have had four bananas today. I had bread with my lunchtime soup so thats more carbs and I had pasta for my tea. Hoping tomorrow I will be over that. I don't know how many syns I have had but I know it's 1500 calories. Could be worse so I am not going to worry about it. Fresh start strictly on plan from tomorrow. I may also stop the calorie counting because it worried me today when I knew the total was getting too high. If I was just following the EE SW plan I would not have worried as I was on plan.
Apologies again for not commenting on everyones posts but I just wanted to show my face and let you know why I have been quiet. I love seeing all the posts going on here. We have a nice group of people!

Hi - sorry that u've had such a rough day - aren't our bodies strange the way they dictate what we eat at times - good job u had the bananas in - and 1500 cals is a long way from a bad day.
On a green day I think a lot of us take in a lot of carbs so that shd be ok. Hope u have a settled night and feel much better 2moro.

Hi upndown they brownies sound good, it is something I could make with the g.children while up there this week.
Bubble - have not read all the posts from the begining, will give it a go if computer works while away.
LJ hope you feeling better now,
Upndown - I usually get weighed on Thursday morning sometimes friday morning, As I am away this week I have to decide whether to get weighed local in Haverhill on Wed and have 8 days to next weigh in or leave it till Friday and go to Saffron Walden a good 20mins from haverill so I would only have 6 days till the next one.
The weather here is quite bright but to chilli to go out without a coat.
Have a good day everyone. I am going to start packing.

Yes the brownies are good - the children might like some Nutella on the top to make them a bit sweeter!
I have a close friend living in Newport near Saffron Walden - it's a nice part of the world - enjoy ur trip.
And good luck with ur weigh in - wherever u choose to go!
Morning everyone. After all that wheat yesterday my tummy is complaining. Bloated and uncomfortable. I have a wheat sensitivity like CJ. But today is a new day and I am on plan and wheat free again. I had a kefir and prune smoothie for breakfast. It was so delicious! Prunes HexB and the kefir I count as free yogurt. One tsp honey 1 syn.
I am off to work shortly. Planning soup for lunch, maybe a banana too. Dinner tonight will be something from my freezer with some brown rice. I am glad to be back on track and hope by tomorrow I will feel well again.
Doreen, did you try resetting your Minimins password with the link I sent you? I am sure you can get on here while you are away. If you get it working on your travel laptop before you go, it will be fine when you are there.
No sunshine here today but it's mild. I will try and be motivated to walk to work this afternoon. One mile round trip. I want to get to 100 miles by the beginning of August when I move.
Have a lovely day everybody. Let's do CJ's litre of water challenge again today?

Doreen, don't give up. Don't know why someone told you you can't log in on two computers. I am testing it right now. Sending this from my PC and am still logged in on my ipad and my laptop with no problems. If you are not able to login on your travel computer then you are typing something wrong. On Minimins your username shows as Nanny Doreen with a space. Try using that.
What sort of computer is the one you are taking with you?
