If I do anything it's self sabotage Find it hard to resist sweet things so I bake my own :rolleyes: Its like asking for trouble........but baking gives me pleasure and I like eating home made stuff rather than shop bought.

Yes but at least when you bake your own you use up some calories making the stuff:D

Fair point!

I've just ordered the journal off Amazon. The reviews are good and it sounds like it could help me stick to the straight & narrow.

I'm just waiting for my journal to arrive, been back to 'the plan' since Monday and have managed to listen to the CD twice. Hopefully keeping the journal will gee me up even more.

Well it is still all good for me. I slipped a bit Friday night and had a couple of cakes but amazingly when I weighed myself yesterday morning I had dropped 4 lbs this week. Had to do it twice because I couldn't believe the scales! Although got a family tea today with birthday cake so may be putting more on again.... More walking this week I think.
Good luck everyone.

Snow White, why don't you make up a smoothie and drink it on the way to work? I used to buy the frozen fruit from Asda, or the frozen smoothie mix, and mix it with a muller light, and a bit of juice, and wheatgerm.
Very filling, and very portable.

That's fantastic. Well done! My trousers are a bit looser :j. I'm using the journal now too.

Great idea, I'll try that, thanks. Just have to make sure I drink it slowly.

Hope you're all doing well. x

I'm on my 5th day of writing in the journal, 10 days back on this altogether. I think the journal's quite good purely to give me a date to focus on ( the day before my mum's 70th is when it finishes. I've stuck my photo in the back and gosh do I look big on it! I've always been big but I'VE put a stone on just in the past year and I can really see how even that stone makes a difference. Haven't been near the scales yet and have had no desire to, bbut I am just off to have some tea ' cause I'M HUNGRY NOW!

I have been following this thread, and have even slightly contributed, so i have decided that i am also going to re dig my book and cd out and give it a go...full steam ahead!

Welcome ms flowerfairy! Hope it all goes well. It really is so easy once you get into it.....and I'm just off to find a snack 'cause I'm hungry!
