Blarg I hate pancakes!! :lipsrseal
C is in the kitchen making herself some now, I've settled for a bowl of muesli.

Just got back in from a run, I'm shaving off the seconds every time I go so all good

I lost 3.1 lbs this week!!! Which is odd as I've been starving, I've had at least 2 extra bowls of cereal a day to try to combat the hunger, on Friday I had 3 bowls in my lunch break at work, I just kept tipping more in!!

Fat % wise I have gained 0.5 but not too worried.

OK, thanks for all the Hellos!!
First full day of dieting done.
Breakfast - branflakes, half a banana and 3 dried apricots,
Lunch - veg soup 2 oatcakes with houmous and ham and a handful grapes.
Dinner - chicken breast, adzuki beans, stirfried mushrooms, peppers brocolli and cauliflower
Snacks - more grapes and 3 nachos!

Walked for about an hour today with a 21lb baby strapped to me - that has to burn something!!

I think she means he stroked her hair and tickled her hand (C always asks for back tickles)
Thou I did think it was rude to begin with!

Thanks Raph -- you could be right.

And back to weight loss news Did a workout tonight feel much better for it, i did Super Fit with the Super Abs add on plus 20 situps. I seem to be gaining some shape but i still have a belly stuck in the middle, grrr if it would vanish overnight i'd be happy :j I haven't made any pancakes, i told OH and he said i don't like them :rotfl: some calories saved there then

my oh likes head tickles too. vix, i would echo the advice from the others about what to put on the cv. Don't forget to put 'charitable work - age concern volunteer' in the interests bit! looks like marion better watch out or i's victory boot camp. Don't think charlie would like that. Beanie, baby steps are the only way - i've been taking baby steps forward and some big steps back but over the past week i feel like i really turned a corner and am going somewhere. I have no idea what my wi will be tomorrow, but i'm happy that this past week i've eaten sensibly overall and i've upped my exercise. Tooo late for the advice granny but i was going to say why not hire an external and upset EVERYONE? no hang out time in the staffroom = no tea and biscuits and right?

mmmmm, jane, ryvita and peanut butter. are you absolutely sure thats enough for tea though? bit rich coming from me i know who eats 2 bowls of cereal a day . . .

pokey your menu sounds healthy and yummy - go you! what do you do with your aduki beans? i've got a pack in the cupboard and am looking for inspiration . . .

Thanks,
I used to go and am probably still a member, not gone there for 2 weeks. I'm a single mom of a 2 yrs old daughter. find it very hard to reach there at 630pm. infact find everything so hard. just dont have much support here. i probably could ask the forum to check the syns for me if i come across something new.

ffm - well done on your loss

purplevamp - well done on your STS

sandhya95 - Welcome to the thread. Lots doing SW here, so you'll find lots of support along the way.

I've had a busy old day today chaps. Spent the entire day outside shovelling sand, moving it up to the end of the garden, then lifting some paving slabs from one end of the garden, and wheeling them in the barrow down the other end of it. We're laying the base for my large shed to be put up on (my shed is still to be dismantled at my house - that's next week's job). We ran out of sand, so I've ordered some more to be delivered on Monday. Then I began tidying up the garden, and decided OH's apple tree needed a good trim, so secateurs and saw at the ready, I've made it look much better. OH and I feel shattered now!

OH & I have made up, so all's good here again now. It wasn't nice last week.

Food for today:

B - porridge
L - bacon roll - to keep up my strength!:o
D - 50g wholegrain rice, stir fry veg, quorn fillets & sweet n sour sauce

Got to put that lot into Foodfocus to work out my cals, but I think with all the exertion today, I'll be fine.

beanie - sometimes baby steps is how it is got to be so good luck.

Jane - well done on the cake/ biscuit freeness :T - my only worry is you don't seem to be having a meal, just snacks( and lush as ryvita and peanut butter sounds, that's probably a trillion cals?): is just snacks your usual approach as it sounds a bit depriving? Are you getting your 5 a day fruit and veg in? PS... ignore the bit below where I talk about my pancakes:o:rotfl:. Def not meaning to preach I'm just worried you aren't geting enough to eat and won't suceed when you are trying hard.

(talking of 5 a day: LOL at your kids Victory - 5 a day pancakes more like.
Granny - it must be awful having to give someone 'the bad news' - my OH's been on the receiving end quite a lot and he always thanks the teller very much because he's knows it must be difficult.
Wow - raph welll done. Now why aren't my 2 bowls of cereal a day having the same effect. Probably the sofa attached to my behind...

Buttonmoons - I love the word 'snarfing':D I have been snarfing pancakes with lemon and sugar.

Just been watching Horizon's prog on the bodyclock. Interesting views on eating heavy meals in the evning - not in terms of weight loss but the body apparantly stores more glucose in the evening as its insulin production isn't so hot then (or something like that) so it is better to have a huge breakfast, big lunch and light supper. But of course our working lives make that difficult, but that's what suits our body clockes best. (Hand and hair tiggles best around 4pm they seem to suggest:D )

Lois - are you back in the UK for a few days yet?
Sary - I missed your post where you said you and OH had made up - that's really great news. It's horrid when things ain't right between you.
