My Journey

Or chocolate, or butter on bread, or cheese w quince paste, or cake, or honey crumpets, or real french custard - really anything other than bloody sultanas - ripped off!

Just catching up on your week and cannot believe the wedding fiasco - I would have hit the roof! Generous ppl are far too often made to kick themselves, did you end up saying anything??

The wather down that way was absolutely beautiful, we spent it on the water; the boy feeding the fish and I lying on life jackets reading a book - ahhh...

Thanks for your check-in comment - lovely of you to take the time ;o)

Oh no! youare so conscientious, what a pain in the a#$& when you work so hard!
Never mind, in the grand scheme of things this won't mean much (but 100% with you on the alcohol LOL)
cheers

ah shite margaret...that was not fair!
Im sorry for this silly thing, but LBTEPA is right!

I would have had that extra point in alcohol though ;)

Hi Margaret

Bugger, bugger, bugger about the sultanas.

However, something I've come to really admire about you is that you always face the music, no matter what. So well done for counting them in when it would have been very easy to just say, "oh I made a mistake and won't count them". Honesty brings us closer to success.

On a lighter note, maybe they won't stick around very long - you'd probably know, being a mum, that dried fruit actually can work as a laxative, LOL!

And guess what?! I finally have my modem! I'll be posting something tomorrow, so stay tuned.

Looking forward to catching up with you again soon.

Ow. Sultanas bloat me and make me feel funny. A workmate of mine and I used to religioudly eat those little boxes of Sunbeam sultanas but then we both started to feel poorly. I looked at my diet, discovered it was all the damn sultanas fault and haven't touched a sultana since. I dread to think what the yoghurt covered ones do!

Peanuts...after I read your post I thought I should check the back of the packet of peanuts that were fastly going down my throat - no more peanuts for me!

Thanks for your comments M, made me smile and cry - but thats OKAY!

What a shit. How good is it though that you are so in tune with your body these days, that you could attribute how you were feeling to the sultanas in teh first place? I think that's fabulous.

21 points for those little things! I try to stay away from processed foods as snacks for this reason. At least you won't forget for next time LOL :-)

Can imagine your frustration but sorry - but it made me laugh:) They say we learn something everyday and you have!

OMG, how awful! That many points should not be allowed in one bag!!!!!

OMG! That's crazyness!!

LOL M, I did something similar recently, the bbq chicken sizzler sausages are 1pt. the packaging is very similar to the smokey cheese flavour which are 3 pts, I cooked and ate 4, thinking they tasted a bit odd...then later when i looked in the fridge saw they were smokey cheese, I had just consumed 12 pts not 4! doh!

Hi M, I know the feeling, so I have had a scone for breakfast, WW scones say 2pts, mine is a little bigger, and savoury so I count 6 points, I have to tell you it took me 48 minutes to eat because I was eating it at my desk slowly, and now I feel bloated and full, maybe the scone was like 21 points....

Cheers

What a bummer. I agree - there are much better things to overindulge in.

BUGGAR!!!!!! Sorry mate, but that just sucks the big youghurt-covered ass!

However! There is good news. 39 points is not the end of the world, just means you will have to be on super-good behaviour for a few days to compensate. You're such a sensible chickie-babe that I know you'll have no troubles.

Have to agree with CKK though - if I was going to slap 21 points away, I'd rather it was on a big fat greasy burger or a massive chunk of chocolate mud cake!!!!

oops not funny really but I am sure it won't count because it was a genuine mistake. Felicity at work

What a difference a decimal point makes...bet that's a mistake you won't be doing again:)

I agree with Slim Suzy - that many points should definately not be allowed in one snack sized bag!!! XX

Blast!

they are dried grapes in yoghurt how can they possibly have so many points? talk about ruining perfectly decent food!
one day youll laugh at this moment :)

Ouch! How rude of them :(
