Please can you post your day 4 updates as normal this evening. I will try and look at them if I'm back in time and reply back, if not it will be tomorrow morning (FRI).

Good luck to all of you and I hope you have a fab day 4 on the challenge !

Well done Ellejay fab DAY 3 hun ! Your doing brill on the water intake. I know your loving your quorn salads, but for green you can also have other proteins in your salads such as eggs, tofu, beans and pulses if you like . Hope your enjoying week 2 just as much. Good luck for day 4 your doing smashing hun !

Kay xx

Morning hun x yes, all's going well, thanks
I know, I tend to eat a LOT of quorn, so quick & easy, but more importantly I just love the taste & texture I've been eating egg prob every other day in my mains, but as I usually hv them for breakfast too, I tend to ration them lol x
Would appreciate any recipe suggestions from anyone with regards to beans & pulses (btw hate the mixed bean salad in a can!) xLx

Thought I would share some ideas with you for syn free dressings to put on salads.

Yogurt or fat free fromage frais are brilliant, especially if you add flavourings to it. Eg rose Marie sauce for prawns. Add tomato paste and a dash of Worcester sauce. Curry powder for coronation chicken sauce.

Soy sauce works well with salmon or salad with bamboo shoots in it.

Dilute mayo or balsamic vinegar with lemon juice for fewer syns but keeping good taste.

Any other ideas you can share? For me variety is key so I want to have a different salad every day

The kraft Italian dressing is free which I use for lettuce occasionally.
A favourite one (garlic lover) natural yogurt with some chilli flakes and then I fry crushed garlic cloves and add that too. Mix and leave to marinate into the sauce for a little while.. beautiful! I always have this with the fake donner kebabs
