    Ok heres today:

    Breakfast: toast with anchor spreadable
    Lunch: Chiken fajita wrap with a couple of dorritos

    Thats it so far and who knows what will be on the menu tonight. Someone mentioned buffet and i really want one! Still no fruit or veg ha. But ive been on the move so i normally eat fruit when im not moving much.

    Happy birthday to GRANNY!! Hope you got my birthday wishes on facebook :)

    Ohh i went to the garden centre today and i bought a hanging basket thing that doesnt hang if you get me and i chose ALL the flowers for it. Got a bit of ivy type stuff, a strawberry plant and a primrose or whatever. So good! I actually enjoyed it :p im getting on a bit now. Trouble is my mum found me planting it up so she has her pressie now, but i still have one more little thing and im cooking her dinner so she still has that to look forward to.

    right, have a lovely weekend everyone, and enjoy sunday to all the mummies in the group! See you soon xxx

    A bit drastic but ive stuck to it quite well and in 2 weeks i have lost just over 5lbs. a nice start and not a lot but its an 8 week programme so fingers crossed ill hit the target one 1 stone loss by then,.!!

    uropachild I always thought splenda had aspartame in it thats why I stopped using it, maybe I shall give it another go, do they do a click pack too? That way I could take it to work. Am off shopping tomorrow so will have a looksie, hehe. While I'm off shopping anyone want to recommend some good healthy snacks maybe something different!

    LittleGemSaver & geordieracer welcome to the thread and good luck on your weight loss quests.

    Geordieracer - welcome to the thread! How does the liver cleansing diet work? Is it much like a detox programme, and what are the basic rules you are following? I've never heard of it before. Well done on your loss so far.

    Oh, and Granny

    Evening all! Hope everyone is well. Gonna try running again tomorrow if my back holds out so cross your fingers please! I seem to have lost a bit but not sure if it's due to my TOTM (I go up and down like a yoyo!). I've been really good food wise and been logging it all on FoodFocus I just hope it doesn't crash like before!


    Geordieracer What it the liver cleansing diet? What do you have to do/avoid?


    I'm another marg hater. It tatses like plastic yuck! A smaller amount of the good stuff is much nicer. I get the spreadable stuff too as it's easy to use less.

    Welcome Geordieracer and LittleGemSaver


    Sarymclary Just noticed your post - great minds think alike!
    I would if I could but I can't so I won't!

    happy birthday granny!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    hope you have had a lovely day. Vix your present for your mum sounds lovely! I've been outside this evening too - painting the fence, yawn. Two panels of 10 done, then got to think about whether to ask the neighbour if i can the other side in his garden. This may be the weekend for the garden furniture to get washed and oiled ready for hte summer. This will be my third summer with it and I swear so far i've spend more time cleaning it than sitting on it.
