Hi all,

have a fridge stuffed full of very healthy foods, ready for the weekend

Which is a good move as we are off to relatives for dinner on Sunday and then to a bbq on monday, weather dependent.

Food today was:

b: 2 shred wheat and nana and raspberries
s: yoghurt and raspberries
l: salad with a small amount of pasta and pastrami
s: cherries and strawbs
d: sausages and low fat hm oven chips, peas and gravy
s: yoghurt


Very unusually we don't have the kids tonight or until teatime tomorrow so have no exact plans for food tomorrow... other than roast chicken dinner but with new potatoes I think.

Today was poo, by mid afternoon I was starving and pigged out badly

Breakfast - missed
Lunch - missed
'Snack' - double cheeseburger :eek::eek::eek:
Supper - remainder of the oxtail casserole
Snax - 1/4 melon, 4 tiny satsumas, apple

Didn't enjoy the burger at all, I think it was guilt that made it taste doughy, greasy, all the things it wouldn't normally taste. Serves me right, should have waited til I got home but will power went up in a puff of smoke when I saw/smelled that burger van

Back to normal tomorrow, don't have to be out so long and won't miss breakfast or lunch and back to working toward that landmark by next Thurs. I hope...

morning :wave:

was good yesterday and didn't give in to chocolate urges in the evening! stuck with my beef casserole and had half the pasta i would normally have and a big green salad instead :T

had my coffee so far .. i am not good with breakfast! i just want my coffee and that's me for a while ... but i need to eat something soon because we'll take dd to a party at bk later and i don't want to slip up!
although i have to say since i've changed my eating habits i absolutly dislike bk or mcd - just thinking of the burgers makes me :eek:
which i think is a good thing really

so today ... am just eating a satsuma (helped that i put a big bowl of fruit on the dining table!!) - and then maybe another coffee

i DO have to drink more water though ... too boring!!

keep up the good work ladies :T

I absolutely agree mOZzy, after suffering indigestion all evening I don't think I'll ever look at another burger again. Self inflicted though, so serves me right

Well done CCP on the loss, hope the new scales spur you on for a while, try not to get obsessed and weigh all the time (which is exactly what I keep doing!)
I had a late dinner last night so I'll leave my WI until the 31st so I can declare my total loss for May. I'm only on 4.5lb so won't make 7 but anything off is a result.
Off camping for one night (steam rally/fair thing) and the amount of stuff I have to pack is ridiculous, may as well be going for a month! Have already cooked tonights dinner, bolognese, so no temptations from the burger vans.
Have a good weekend everyone.

Morning one and all! Congratulations to the losers! I don't think I shall be one when I get weighed tomorrow - I have been too naughty this week. I stuck rigidly to plan yesterday and then, come evening, I went on the food prowl. I wasn't even hungry, I just "needed" to snack and lots of sinful goodies that were in the freezer, out of harm's way, were getting defrosted! I did avoid opening a bottle of wine though so that's something!

Well, back on the wagon and feeling full of remorse I have devised today's menu:

B - Benefit flakes with sliced banana and sk milk
L - HM Red Pepper & Cream Cheese soup with Nimble granary salad sarnie. Light chocolate mousse and raspberries.
D - Cauliflower Cheese (made with LF cheese & Sk Milk) Big bowl SF jelly, strawberries & blueberries and FF yogurt.
S - will really try and stick to fruit today!

Have a good day everybody.

Morning everyone

Well done to everyone who's lost this week. I think I will be in the 'must do better' category this week, and suspect I've undone all my May hard work too

I have been away for the last week, and have been awful. food and drink was paid for all week, so needless to say I took full advantage with a fry up every morning, lots of bread based lunches and chips and alcohol nearly every night. No exercise at all. I need to pull my socks back up.

***runs off to weigh***

I'm 2lbs heavier this monring than when I started on 1st May :eek:

My official weigh in is tomorrow so I'll wait till the before updating my sig. Am so angry with myself.

Don't beat yourself up prophecy_grrl, these things happen to the best of us but I know how annoying it is when you have given in to temptation.

prophecy_grrl

Thanks TravellingAbuela. I know it's just a blip, but just writing it down and reading it back made me see how silly I'd been. Nevermind back on the horse today!

I know just where you're coming from prophecy_grrl, it's there staring you in the face and any good red-blooded woman worth her salt is going to struggle to deny herself what's prepped, cooked, served, washed up for her, and free for a whole week! I think a gain of only 2lb after a week like that is amazing

Next Friday I'm going on a 12-day cruise so will be unable to escape the many restaurants and 24-hour buffets. Toward the end of the holiday you may read about a cruise ship somewhere in the Med doing a reasonable imitation of the Titanic :eek:. On the other hand, as our stateroom is approx in the middle it might not even upend gracefully, just do a belly flop straight to the bottom :rotfl:. So....

For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
For the next 6 days I'm going to be soooo good!
