Now my self discipline is being tested...I've needed more jelly babies:(

I suppose when you think about it, the jelly babies are needed to give you energy and raise your levels so your brain can use that energy - they're not in excess of your requirements, so shouldn't be a consideration for your weight.
 
Thanks Alan that sounds a good reason not to include the jelly babies in my WW points. I can't believe how much my basal rate is going down. I haven't had any humalog since 7am yet have another hypo
 
Right I'm not going to let some stupid hypos spoil my weight loss!!!!!! I'm now recovered and pack on track. Goats cheese and pumpkin tartlet for dinner with stirfried babycorn, courgette and mushrooms and three small (125ml) glasses of wine because it's the weekend:D

Enjoy! 🙂
 
Thank you🙂 It really helps me lots writing everything on here🙂
 
Hi Amanda, I'm raising my glass to you! I also have a glass of wine to go with my 'good' dinner, a luxury I seldom indulge in due to monster hangovers. Cheers, hic!
 
Cheers LeeLee🙂
 
Oh and just a tip with your stirfry veg - I sometimes throw in some sesame or poppy seeds in mine to give them a bit of a different flavour - not sure if they count in weight watchers points but might liven things up if you start getting bored of it.
 
Shambles thanks very much for the tip, I was only thinking last night that sesame seeds would look pretty in the stir fry🙂
 
I haven't eaten hardly anything today because I was at Uni all day. Beef goulash for dinner tonight. WW points have been kept to and I've even kept some for lunch out tomorrow🙂

Ooh! Haven't had goulash for yonks! Enjoy! Hope you have a nice lunch tomorrow, it's supposed to be a nice day 🙂
 
Thank you Alan. I can't remember the last time I had goulash and OH doesn't think he has ever had it. We're having lunch with his parents tomorrow. I'm trying to choose the low fat options (I've already studied the menu)🙂 AND have sparkling water instead of wine.....now will my mouth manage to say the right words when choosing my drink🙄

Haha! I have that problem when I walk up to the bar - I mean to say 'a diet pepsi' and they give me a pint of Stella - must be my accent! 😱 😉
 
You've inspired me to look up an SW recipe for goulash. In the oven now, smells lovely.
 
I survived lunch out and had fairly healthy options. Scallops with salsa followed by a small potato truffle cake with beetroot and butternut squash. I compromised with the wine and just had one glass:D. I won't eat anything else today but of course, me being me, there will be some wine🙂
 
Creme Brulee :D (total no no now) or Steak and chips :D (both together preferably) hahaha with scallops to start ...

MMMMMMmmmmm
