Hi all - well done on the weight losses. My weigh day today and I've lost 6lb. Just another *cough cough* to go.

Didn't post menu for yesterday as I was mainly snacking in between tidying bedrooms, cupboards, going for a walk, tidying again.
Today so far:
B - omelette, mushroom, spring onion, ham
L - cheese salad
D - erm something or other - think it'll be the stir-fry option again with steak possibly maybe

alias, my eyes are all red & watering laughing at your posts!! :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:
Couldn't believe it when I saw the big red declaration of my weight loss!! :eek: Honestly, you try & keep things discreet!! :rotfl:
Not sure if I should tell you how to make cheesy leeks now!! Ok, I will in a minute.
First of all, that 8 lbs was a total shocker for me!! Hadn't weighed myself since last Monday so was gobsmacked (I hate that word but it does sum it up nicely!!) when I saw how much I'd lost!! BUT it just goes to show how over-doing it on carbs affects my body - I think I just absorb so much water & bloat up, especially on my face. I don't think it will be quite such a dramatic weight-loss next week though.
45 stone to lose?! Lol!! Not quite that much!! It's 8lbs less than it was before though!!
And no, don't even think of eating bad things for a few days or you'll have kissitbetta on your case!! :rotfl:
Ok, cheesy leeks -
Lightly saute chopped leeks in butter (don't burn them)
Add double/single cream or creme fraiche - not a huge amount or it's too runny
Grate cheese in & warm through (no particular amount)
Season with black pepper & scoff!!
That's it!! Easy peasy & sooooo yummy!!

I'm in a sunny mood this morning because my weigh-in showed that I've finally got rid of the pound that I've been fighting with for the last couple of weeks. So now I've lost exactly 3 stone in exactly 6 months, which is a nice round figure (rather like my own ).

That's great HC, well done!! A total of 3 stone lost is brilliant!! :j Glad you're in a sunny mood.

Well done MoonRose too - 6lbs!! Yay!! Sounds like you have been a busy bee as well as angelic!!

Ok, finally getting around to posting my menu for today -
B - blues/rasps & cream (leftovers from yesterday)
L - salmon salad (salad leaves, tinned salmon mixed with mayo & chopped spring onions, coleslaw & grated cheese)
D - frittata/omelette with good old cheesy leeks
Off to the co-op now for more eggs (of the fresh, not creme variety!!). Think I'll buy a dozen this time as I seem to be going through them really quickly!!
Happy days everyone.

Losr 1lb last week not 100% happy I would have like more. Think the 85% choc has stalled me. So since Fri I have been sticking to my low carb ish diet and since Fri I have lost 1 1/2 pounds and ate the same bar the choc.

Congrats to all of you who have lost so much. :thatsbrilliant: Hopefully I'll be up there with you soon. Going to be really strict this week and make sure I lose something to add to my measly 7lbs, lol.

By the way can anyone tell me anything about Acai vitamins. I had bought a few boxes of them but am afraid to take them as they are based on the Acai berrry and not sure if they are Atkins friendly.
