What a gorgeous day! Got up at 6am had 2 slices of Warburtons small wholemeal toast with miniscule amount of lighter lurpak then had a red grapefruit and a cup of tea. Went in garden and started planting my vegetables, hubby knocked on window at 10am with sausage sarny!!! in Warburtons bless him!! I could not refuse could I!!!! It was beautiful, better go and do some more gardening and running around after my 2 year old son to work it off!!!

Just weighed myself this week (thought I'd see the damage done through the Easter week!) and I've managed to lose 1lb! Been to the gym 3 times this week, once for Aqua Aerobics though!

Had intentions of being good until I discovered that my mum bought hot cross buns yesterday :) I used low fat margerine though :tup

Have just made tikka sauce but it tastes a bit sour and powdery where have I gone wrong? mixed tinned tomatoes, 2 tablespoons of fromage frais and 2 teaspoons of tikka powder seasoning? Have left it in slow cooker for tonight when I finish work but dont know if I am looking forward to it now!

Want to show off a bit, my diet this year has actually been quite sucessful, I've managed to drop 11lbs since end Feb/ Beginning March. Want to do another 7 or 8 so I can really not worry about what I'm eating in Corfu.. I love love love real greek food.

Thank you!

I ate a lot of red grapefruit when I started. They take ages to eat and you end up full afterwards. I replaced my choccie fix with low cal cadbury dark choc options drinks. Delicious and again makes you feel full. Redbush tea with vanilla if that still didnt take the sweet tooth away. Cut down on bread and ate lots of lean meat, jacket potatoes in skins and salads. I also took up following the Yogamazing podcasts. Far from being relaxing, the type of Yoga they do is actually designed to give you a decent 20 minute workout.

My current fad is Ainsley Harriot Hot and Sour cup-a-soups to take to work. Nice and spicy and only about 80cals. Gets me over the mid morning raid of the vending machine.

Morning All, :wave:
What a lovely day it is here in Wirral. :sun2
AgentQ - welcome you have done so well. :)
I have had 3 very good days on Slimming World this week and unintentionally have had 2 Extra Easy days in that.
Must keep it going over the weekend (can be my downfall).
Menus planned out for the next 10 days so I know I have got all the SW food in.
Have a great weekend everyone.

its a liquid diet,because i have alot to lose,i was willing to give it a go,because you can see,an end to it,if you stick to it,where as dieting,by the conventional means,i would just lose heart,as i have so many times before,because to lose the weight,i wanted to lose,would take forever,but i am now half way there,in only 3 1/2 months,so for me,it has been worth it.
