Yay ! Well done Rosie fab day 2 ! Loving your salad pic, it looks so yummy and healthy , I hope it filled you up. Just looking around the plate the only thing I would suggest is amongst the other food items on the plate the salad is a little less.

I have been asked this before in terms of what proportion of salad should be eaten and I would say for a maincourse salad dish the salad should take up at least half of your plate, the green leafy stuff , I've also been asked if veggies can be substituted for salad, I'm afraid not, the bulk of it has to be lots of green leafy stuff. Fibre is a big part of this challenge and a huge aid with the weightloss. Sorry hun I know you didn't ask but I'm just saying this to help everyone, hope you don't mind .

Rosie well done on the water your doing fab with that and the syns and exercise ! I hope your feeling mighty fit inside , you should be well proud of yourself, your doing brill ! Good luck for day 3, I hope you do super hun xx

[Poppet12]

Thank you for the feedback it did fill me up! I'm always surprised how much it does. Stupidly I forgot my pea shoots today (hence there's less leaves!). I thought there was something missing then I found them in the fridge :-/
I feel quite good though my totm is throwing me off slightly. Going to be out for lunch tomorrow so I'm going to acquaint myself with the eating out section of this thread xx

Ok hun, it's brill that your full, it must be all that fibre so your obviously getting enough , sorry for the TMI, but I hope your getting plenty of visits to the loo too, that's always a good sign . Yep the eating out section is really helpful. Also if you happen to have an online menu of where you are going, you can post the link on here and we can help you with suggestions, but if your ok to figure it out that's cool too . There is also the option of having tomorrow as your day off if you like. Everyone can have a planned day off in the week, 2 max if needed xx

My appetite goes a bit funny at totm- normally I feel like I need carbs but at the mo small meals are satisfying. Odd.
Not a problem, I'm used to discussing toilet issues! I have IBS so generally a bit all over (again, totm throws this too!) but i have felt fine so far. Shall up the peppermint tea just in case ;-)
I should have a choice for lunch so I was thinking I'd go for a subway?! Then id just have to syn the sauce/dressing (sweet onion, my fave!)...
I may need Sunday as a day off though I'd prefer not to have one at all. It's up in the air whether I will be going out for tea with the in-laws-to-be or not but so close to the end I'd love not to lol x

Thanks Kay, I'm glad I'm getting it right! My salad was really lovely and there was definitely plenty of green stuff underneath I also had some green stuff with my lunch xx

 

[Sammyanth]

Just a quick question, is canned tomato soup definitely ok on a red day or would it need to be syned? x
