taking a chicken sandwich and snack o jacks to work and jelly babies for lunch
ww meal for dinner
Ireckon about 1300cals today..

Hi hun,youre doing really well, just be careful about the sweets,the more sweets you have the more your body will crave them,and they'll bring you down to a crash....i love those banana foam sweets, and the pink shrimps..ooohh those little pink mushrooms

xoxo

 

[madchef]

If you have a Aldi's near you they do some lovely sweets which are sugar free and are gorgeous, they are Strawberry and Cream flavoured, and I think they have another flavour but I can't remember it

 

[Kes]

I LOVE the little pigs for M&S!

 

[newcomer]

I agree Kes, those M&S little pink pigs are the best of the lot...
Have had today bran flakes and banana
packet of small sweets
chicken sandwich for lunch
some popcorn ( naughty)
chicken in low fat sauce for dinner and rice
I reckon about 1400cals today
From tomorrow I am not going to have any more of these naughty sweets!!! I think anyway for the amount of cals they are I would rather have a ww dessert instead...

 

[bunny_hops]

the ww chocolate mousse and the chocolate brownies are nice and theyre a good size too. i think theyre on offer in asda,they were last week.

what popcorn did you have?my friend had some orville redenbackers (the best popcorn) the other day,i looked popcorn up and surprisingly some sorts are quite low in fat

 

[newcomer]

Hi,
Can't remember the make of the popcorn ,was bought on impulse while out with youngest so that she could eat while watching a dvd... howver mommy had to keep having a few handfuls!!! didnt have any side effects though so cant have been that bad....
Have had a good few days... although not sure what we are having for dinner tonight I havent decided... I always get a little worried if I havent planned that by now as it could go horribly wrong later!!
had special k for breakfast
snack ww cheesecake
am off to have lunch now chicken sandwich...

 

[Kes]
