Yesterday I had:
B - blue top milky coffee
L - cup soup
D - spag bol
S - small box of yogurt covered raisins

Breakfast today was a gold top milky coffee, and I've just had lunch of ham sandwiches, HM bread and I cooked a bacon joint last night (glazed with marmalade) so that was HM too. No idea what to do for dinner tonight just yet

Hope everyone's having a reasonable day! WI for me tomorrow, hoping I've lost some more...

Hi guys

I've been on hols which is why I haven't been on here for a few weeks. Diet has gone a bit squiffy but am starting afresh on monday. Even better, dad is joining me which should be extra motivation in terms of preparing decent meals.

I'm not weighing myself for a while as it gets me depressed to see gains so am having a few weeks break from the scales. Therefore I can't join the August challenge, but am still determined to really go for it!

Change of plan for lunch. Had a wander up the garden when I got in from work. I picked my first batch of baby carrots, peas and more runner beans so decided to eat them with some of my batch-cooked mince. DELICIOUS!!!! Feel like a proper OS'er today.

Afternoon all

Well we now have the BIGGEST thunder storm -its a stonker and is bringing branches down all around :eek: ......still at least i won't have to water the veggies later(thats assuming they are still upright)

Well this morning it was scorching..so we had our tootle round the animal park..it was lovely-its cut out of the woods -so lots of shade :T about 1 1/2 hrs walking -so that might help this weeks weigh in -pinkies crossed.. i packed up a couple of hm baguettes with cheese salad and a couple of small tubs of salad with feta ..
so meals today have gone:-

1. brekkie- 30g meusli with hm natural yoghurt
2. lunch - 1/2 baguette and a pot of salad
3. mid afternoon -orange jelly with tinned apricots in and natural yoghurt
4. dinner -going to be baked sweet potato, cottage cheese and salad for me -normal jacket for hubby
5. supper -jelly/yoghurt or grapes

I have another batch of yoghurt on the go -this time with a spoon of milk powder to see if it makes it thicker-mind it tastes nice the other way so no great shakes either way i guess

I have fetched another 1lb of tomatoes in today and our 1st red chilli so this weekend im going to concoct a chilli pork dish -chinese type thingy:p .
Im going to roast some of the tomatoes off with oil/salt/pepper and then freeze -if i can wedge them into one of the freezers;)
My aubergine now has another 7 perfect baby ones on .... i wasn't sure they were all going to swell -but they are doing :j

Well done on the losses folks..angelnikki.... does that mean we can keep on making the brownies then :T

Newlywed.. i Face all the tins up too :rotfl: i think it comes from shelf stacking..ooh and i have to have symetry or i get flustered -and my hubby is like you -sometimes he moves stuff just to see how long it takes me to notice :eek: and its not usually very long at all

Right im off back to my x stitch..have a great evening everyone.. and good luck to anyone else weighing in tomorrow:D

Hi all, not going to weigh in til next Saturday as we are out and about at other peoples places so I am not sure when I will get online. Will report back soon.

Today I went on a mammoth shopping trek with a friend so I am absolutely knackered! Went to aqua fit last night which was great fun and will definately go again.

B: Bran flakes and banana with semi skimmed milk
L: Wagamama yasai gyoza (steamed veg dumplings) and yaki soba (wholewheat noodles with egg, chicken and prawn and veg)
Maybe a sandwich later if I get hungry

Have a great weekend all, if the weather is nice, I am off to Kew Gardens

Edited to add, I just ate a HM scone with butter and jam, very nice it was too

morning all :wave:

woken up to another line of ash from upstairs :mad:
its DS 3rd birthday tomorrow and we're having some friends/family round for a BBQ, hoping they don't decide to smoke out the window then - my dad will go loopy.
made some white choc crispy cakes for DS to take to nursery today and did have to try one of course

did my pilates yesterday - forgot how much it blumming hurts but no pain no gain! still it always makes me feel surprisingly good after i'm finished, if a bit achy :rotfl:

well done all you losers and stsers :T :T
i'm hoping to sort myself out a weight loss journal template on the comp later, including weekly WI pages and monthly measurements. i figured if i keep everythin saved on the comp then i should be able to see the weeks when what i'm doing 'works' and when it doesnt thats the theory anyway! once i've done the template for it, anyone is welcome to it, just PM me.

food for today:
b- special k
l- cheese and crackers
d-not sure yet

have a good one everyone good luck to all our friday weighers!

Morning all!

an early post for me as I'm off to the hospital at 8am.

For tea yesterday we ended up having a fish pie with cheese and broccoli(Birdseye I'm afraid as it was late by the time we got back) we did have home grown peas and french beans with it and a bit of mash.

Today i havent got any plans either as its a very busy day again but so far I've just had some soaked muesli for breakfast.

Good luck to those weighing in today!

Morning Toni and Tappy and all who follow,

Hope all goes ok at the Hospital Tappy and RS :A

Well, didn't know wether to weigh this morning or not. RS and I had made a deal not to weigh until Aug 31st but we were worried that I would be thinking all was ok and I was loosing weight, but in reality I wasn't. We discussed it and I did weigh as I couldn't cope not knowing Anyway, after a week of eating lots but NOT bingeing I have lost 6lb.

To say I am pleasently supprised is the understatement of the thread. I'll let you all into a little secret. On Tuesday I did something I never do. Actually, I dont think I have ever managed it before............... I had a packet of Vegan Choc Buttons, and then nothing else. I did not binge.

I didn't really know wether it was a good idea as that sort of thing always leads to a binge and I was feeling SO possitive. But, I thought I needed to test myself as normal people do have chocolate and then stop eating. It was a risky strategy. I do like to make things difficult for myself though don't I? I savoured the whole packet and sucked each one to within an inch of it's chocoltaty little life. They were the lovliest thing I'd had in ages and I really enjoyed every little bit, and for some very unusual reason they were enough.

I know the key to sucess is not to deprive yourself and have a little of what you fancy. I have listened to MrsM saying it for a year. As an addict that is the hardest thing to do. But, like I said to RS, I am so tired of fighting the toad, and I want to beat him once and for all. He really hates it when I'm in control and he shrinks away sulking. It is hard, very hard and I really had to concentrate, but I did it.

I'm going to Sainsbugs today and I'm buying another packet to have as my Friday treat. I have no doubt that I will binge again, I am only Frog. But, I will carry on. I will take each day as it comes. I will keep trying. Oneday, the Toad will get the message

Have a good one Guys and Good Luck to the others weighing in this morning

Miss_Cinnabon

thats fantastic frogga:j well done on not bingeing, i cant eat chocolate anymore, actually find i dont miss it one bit, chocoltae is my mega weakness so if i have one then i have the whole lot:D

well this week hasnt gone well for me, havent really gone out so havent been feeling my cheery self to exercise, so have put on 1.5lb:o thats my first gain since i have started.

Normally that would make me just give me but i am determined to do it this time, got my incentive to lose weight for floida next october, want to get into a slinky bikini:D

Also have started a bad habit of having cereal each evening, i say every morning i am not doing that again but find every night that i do!
