Hi all,

Glad I'm still here today, had one of those scary moments this morning when I was on my own in the house and accidentally inhaled some of my breakfast. The harder I coughed the further it went down so I had that sinking feeling my time was up! After a fraught few minutes it shot out of my nose so I'm here to tell the tale

B: 2 slices wholemeal toast (minus the nose piece)

L: Leftover veggie lasagne

HM Chicken fajitas (lots of griddled peppers and onions in mine with only a little soured cream and guacamole)

S: Probably not much today, too busy

floyd: i am SOOOO jealous of your sonisphere win! i so wanted to go

Well im new to this thread, i really need to do something about my weight. I need to lose about 3 stone in total really, and it needs to happen for good! my knees are starting to give me some issues and im only 25.

i am going to be using the paul mckenna principles, and just eating home cooked food again, no bought sandwiches for lunch cutting back on cheese, and generally reducing portion sizes!

Today:

B: was out and couldnt be bothered to make do!
L: half tin of tuna, light mayo, salad sandwich with no butter
roast chicken, roast veg and potatoes, home made yorkie and sprouts

lots of water, diet coke!

L: 1 piece of bread with cheese and beetroot
lamb roast (in a tin from tesco bargin at a £5) pots, carrots, parsnips, broccili. Had been near to having a pudding when I fell asleep on sofa due to 2 glasses of wine.


Today:
B: yougert & banana
L: left over lamb sandwich (have a breadmaker now so does that count as HM?)
S: small portion of leek & pot soup that needs using up

My name is Floyd and I'm addicted to food.....it seems the binge demons are still there, they have just been silenced for a long time.

Got really hungry late yesterday afternoon but didn't have any healthy snacks in work and as I knew I was going home in an hour I didn't think there was any point in going out to buy anything. But, I started getting the shakes and feeling wobbly so I ate a packet of Christmas tree chocolates so the old guilt shame monster kicked in and I went to the vending machine and bought a bag of Monster Munch and a bag of Hula Hoops.
I will never understand why I continually feel the need to 'punish' myself with food, why couldn't I have 1 or 2 chocolates to stop the hypoglycemia enough to get me home to my lovely roast dinner, why did I feel the need to hide the evidence and lie to OH about why I didn't finish my dinner?

Forget it and move on, try to shut the door on the beastie once more

B: Bagel with cream cheese

L: Scouse

Wholemeal spaghetti zucchini with a big salad

S: A small skinny latte and fruit

NO MORE CHOCCIES

prettypaula

recognising and closing that door so fast is the true sign of growth floyd! i too struggle with the binge monster and have only recently recognised it myself.

Yesterday:

B: banana and home made bran muffin

L: veggie soup

S: mandarin

chicken and tomato pasta with mushrooms and courgettes, cauli and broc! with a little low sugar ice cream afterward

Today:

B: slice of toast with organic PB and blue berry preserve

S: banana

L: leftover spag bol, chicken left overs

either lasagne or pork chop with risotto

if someone would be so kind as to help me out with a recipe for a nice mushroom risotto?

taplady

morning!

Floyd - hope you banish the monster! x

Prettypaula - I made mushroom risotto last night, its dead easy

I fried the mushrooms and onions in a little oil or frylight if your prefer until softened then add the risotto rice for a couple of minutes then put chicken stock in and leave to bubble away - stirring it often and topping up the liquid - it takes a lot of liquid as it evaporates.I find it takes about 20 mins until the rice is cooked properly.Season it and I sprinkle a little grated cheese on top of mine. Its one of my favourite dishes.

Got on the scales this morning and by some miracle they say I've lost a bit more - proper weigh in tomorrow.
Food today

B - boiled egg and toast(ww bread)

L - mushroom soup with ryvita thins(type of crispbread with seeds)

D - quorn bolognaise


hope you all have a good day x
