Whilst reading all about the use of healthy low fat courgettes my fatty high sugar custard cream fellminto my coffee. i feel that someone above is helping me out here

By some weird coincidence, I was just investigating a packet of digestive biscuits when the second one from the top flipped itself into my nightly low cal hot chocolate (admittedly, I had to eat the one on the top before it could do it... ). Dark Forces are indeed at play here - at this rate I'll be surprised if I can get through tomorrow without a large pork pie throwing itself into the middle of my lunch time cup-a-soup. Be afraid. Be very afraid :rotfl:

Morning all. Got back from a nice (and not TOO naughty) couple of days away last night. Now just awaiting the arrival of the 3 DGD's to look after for the day. Was hoping it might be nice enough to go out somewhere and have a picnic lunch but the sky, in parts, doesn't look too promising! Will catch up on your posts later when they have gone.

Just devised today's plan:

B - Porridge with raspberries
L - Thins sandwich and bowl of HM soup. WW berry fromage frais.
D - Ravioli and salad. SF jelly, mixed berries, FF vanilla yogurt.
S - Grapes, satsumas, nectarine.

Still 9st 12 this morning, but not bad considering I added a toasted crust, baked beans and a chocolate cupcake to what I planned to eat yesterday!

B: Oat cereal, ss milk, 2 coffees with ss milk
L: (Packed) salad
savoury rice.

Hi all, hope you are all being rewarded with lots for weight loss despite the attack of rogue biscuits!:rotfl:

Have done my weekly weigh in after my trial week on my cheapy menu. Have PUT ON 3 3/4 lb:eek: in a week! so the menu definitely needs tweeking! Have to say I haven't stuck to it very well as there has been the odd packet of sweets and extra slices of bread and marg! Am doubly cross as this also means I am spending money on food I don't need ! Also I don't eat sweetners as they give me muscle fatigue and do have a sweet tooth - so could cut down on some of the sugar.

So from this week I will write down here everything I eat to try and keep to my 3 meals a day.

Today Breakfast = porridge, milk and sugar and coffee.
Lunch = HM Chicken and potatoe soup and 2 slices bread and marg
Dinner = 3 pork sausages and onions, mustard mash and b.beans.

OK time for work....

morning all
managed to get DH to eat some courgettes last night with no complaints, felt like a major triumph! Honestly it's easier to get my 3 year old niece to eat veggies that it is for him :rotfl:

todays meals:
Breakfast: nature valley bar
Lunch: Cheese sandwich on 2 slices wholemeal bread (made by DH apparently there wasn't enough chicken for both our sandwiches, funny as I deliberately left enough when I made the risotto last night :rotfl:)
Dinner: dunno, no time to think this morning might go to cinema tonight, so may just have beans on toast or something similar, and then share some sweeties at the flicks.

Exercise: none, I'm aching too much from pilates last night even breathing hurts!

Weigh-in on Friday this week as have to take DD to an appt for 9am.

2 sandwiches, a bowl of cereal and a load of fruit? Even with the biscuits that doesn't sound like much food to me. Is that ALL you ate in a day? Sorry for interfering, but you sounded like you thought that was loads?

I managed to be very restrained at the party last night. I was given a serving of white choc cheesecake (homemade by a chef husband of one of the ladies) and I only ate HALF of it!

Leftover quiche for breakfast though so I'll have to have a light lunch...

Hello .

Weigh-in sts! Oh darn, this plateau is a long one. Still, have eaten out twice (unusual), and had a thing for jam lately, so not strictly speaking a plateau.
Will try harder.

Have a good day everyone

Morning all.

Me for today:

B - two slices toasted raisin and banana bread with butter and jam (naughty, but I woke up feeling decidely unwell and can never resist hot buttered toast when I'm feeling under the weather)
L - prawn salad sarnie; cucumber sticks with hummus; LF yoghurt with cherry sauce; glass of apple and mango juice (a rather over-generous lunch but I was hungry - I'll have a small portion of pasta this evening to make up for it )
S - nectarine (the one I didn't eat yesterday - I must eat it today as it's starting to go furry )
D - bacon and courgette pasta bake with tomato topping; [STRIKE]some sort of fruit with probiotic yoghurt (hopefully FF but I'll take what I can get to offset the... err... effects of the antibiotics I'm taking (iykwim ))[/STRIKE] eaten at lunchtime - one pot a day should do the trick

Exercise - I've already had a walk up to the chemist to collect my prescription and will try to get out again at lunchtime, at least for a short walk.

Have a good day, all, and watch out for attacking biscuits!
