    Floyd you should either ring NHSdirect or see your doctor about your acid reflux. Better safe than sorry.
    ((((((Marion)))))) don't know what to say but hope you feel better soon.
    Today started bad. I didn't get to bed until 2am and I had 3 breakfasts (Ryvitas, muesli and toast) then I was up again at 5am and had muesli again for breakfast.
    Lunch: Macaroni cheese
    Snack: small 70% dark chocolate bar.
    Dinner. Pizza, potato salad and coleslaw.
    Snack: Apple and Mullerlight Yoghurt

    Exercise: Walked 1.5 miles. 50 minutes on the treadmill, 10 minutes on the eliptical trainer, 35 minutes on the exercise bike and I did some weights. I'm off to get some shut-eye. Goodnight.

    Well done patworkcat :jevery pound you lose is a major sucess and your doctor should no better!

    Vicky, everyone has days like that I'm sure but I think it's great that you were brave enough to post it! That will hopefully help you get back on the wagon. I expect you will get a double loss next week after a sts this week!
    Taplady :j enjoy your days off!
    My day yesterday wasn't bad at all considering 2 meals out! Lunch was a bit of baguette and tuna mayonaise with salad and dinner gorgeous low fat mushroom risotto thanks to my lovely size 6 best friend trying hard to help me slim! Normally my slim friends don't seem to understand the whole dieting thing.
    The plan for today is
    B porridge
    L Salad sandwich
    D HM pizza and salad

    Hi all,

    I am starting to think that my reflux is stress related as it hasn't been happening when I eat at home :rolleyes: only at work. I wrote a diary to try and pinpoint foods that triggered but there was no pattern other than being in work! I suppose its a combination of eating quickly because I still have things running through lunchtime that I have to check or need to get started quickly in the morning so I rush breakfast and also that I keep getting interrupted by students. I might try eating my meals elsewhere so nobody can find me and bother me. :D

    I have been fine today, no burning or coughing and I haven't taken anything so fingers crossed I have figured out whats wrong.

    B: Nothing because we went straight out to cycle

    L: Warm ciabatta roll with mozarella, pesto and vine tomato and a spoon of HM coleslaw

    D: Sausage casserole with beautiful young veg from FIL's plot, cauli, baby carrots, cabbage and peas.

    Might have a bit of pud today as I have a some blackberries that need using up so perhaps some vanilla ice cream and fruit either raw, coulis or crumble heh heh

    I have a done 7 miles hard mountain biking today so I feel I can have a pud if I fancy one :D

    Have a fab weekend all

    Enjoy your days off TapLady and Vixtress hope your son gets better soon and that you get a restful night tonight.
    Today I had:
    Breakfast: Muesli and semi-skimmed milk.
    Snack: Packet of SnackAJacks sour cream and chive.
    Lunch: Third of a wholemeal baguette, scrapping of butter, ham, tomato, lettuce and some Sensations Peking Duck? flavoured crisps.
    Pudding: Strawberries and 2 meringue nests (again feeling like I have to be the human hoover to keep the peace).
    Snack: Cherry tomatoes
    Dinner: Jacket potato and one and a third tins of mackerel in tomato sauce. A thumb sized portion of edam cheese.
    Snack: An orange and some cherry tomatoes.

    Exercise: Walked 4 miles, ran 1 mile.

    My usual weigh in is on a Thursday but my scales needed new batteries which I received today, so I weighed myself today and I have lost 2 lbs. I now weigh 13 stone 9lb and my weigh in day will be Saturday from now on.
