ok, big deal for me, maybe not for others! :laugh:

my cinema trips usually involve a huge bag of crisps/chips, lots of chocolate and pic n mix candy!

the other nite i had a lollipop - 48 cals & a very small bag of low fat crisps 99 cals and some diet coke almost 0 cals!

was so delighted that i didnt go crazy! had a great cinema nite for well under 200 cals

AND

we went bowling afterwards for an hour, so managed to burn 268 cals for an hour bowling!

HAPPY DAYS!!!!! :drinker:

    You know what...that is a BIG deal! Every time you are successful is like another brick laid on the foundation of your good health and happiness.

    Bravo...Brilliant I say....Yes I really think so!!

    BTW...I am now adding lollypops to my list of things to take to the movies.

    i LOVE the chuppa chups lollipops, strawberry is only 48 cals, so this website says anyway :smooched:

    anything that keeps me away from my usual 2000cal cinema trip has to be good! lol :blushing:
