Zen friendly treats?

[jenbo]

First full week in and I'm thinking I can't do this. Really been eating the minimum, not eaten anything with more then 2% fat in due to the fact I'm frightened to death of anything happening.

Can anyone suggest any treats I can try to cheer myself up ? :-(

Made burgers with extra lean with salsa on top and some slimming world chips. Been really good this week so think I deserve a treat ! Found some weight watchers coconut cake bars with 2.9g per 100g so having one of those later

if its sweets you are missing, i eat School Bars made by fruit bowl. they are 1 of your five a day, fat free and are lovely and sweet and chewy! My kids love them to they are usually by the dried fruit or cake making section in supermarkets.

Sainsburys do a really low fat mince & it tastes gorgeous!

Please try not to worry, I was worried like you but was fine with anything up to 5g/100g.

Sweets are low fat, boiled sweets, jellies & the like x

Hi do you have a recipe for this thanks?

I use extra lean steak mince in various meals and it's fine. It is worrying the first week or two on the tabs as I was always wondering if I would have a bad reaction but once you get used to them you'll be fine and you'll get in a routine of what food suits you. If I'm desperate for something sweet I normally make up a sugar free jelly and Tesco's do some low fat lemon drizzle cake slices which are really lovely and virtually fat free. I agree with Lexie that you should be fine with anything up to 5g per 100g and try not to worry cos as the next few days pass you'll have a clearer picture of how the tablets work with you.

I do a healthy eton mess, 2 crushed meringue nests (sainsburys bakery ones are yummy & chewy) strawberries & raspberries & I use onken vanilla yoghurt all mixed together, it's delicious & 220 cals. You can do it with any yoghurt x

M&S meringues are my favourite but I don't often get in. My 6 year old loves this for his pudding, he had it tonight!
