Starting over again......
Hi Val - re the chocolate. I know this won't work for everyone, but I have found that bananas can help satisfy my choc cravings when I get them. Which is a result because they are free on SW. I eat a lot of bananas these days lol. Might just be worth bearing in mind if and when you do get a hankering for choc.

Hello! Off to read through some of your posts, thanks so much for the help so far
Can you get WW Hot Chilli Torillas? They are very good and 83 cals a bag (small bag, mind you!).
Half a banana sliced into a Mullerlight Toffee is delicious! My afternoon snack some days!
Hi Val, I'm fine tho' the weight is slow to move! But I have lost 7 lbs and have a weigh in at my Practice Nurse in just over 2 weeks time, so maybe for the first time in years I'll have a good result! (I am on a lot of BP medication which slows everything down and see the Nurse every 6 mths)
BTW, I get the WW Tortillas at a Poundstretcher, £1 for bag of 5.
Glad you are doing well! With all these posts tonight I might yet get up to 50!
