I think something is going on with the air around Leicester. I still fit into my clothes but the scales are showing a whopping 3lb up this week.

I know i haven't eaten 10500 calories more than i have burnt so universe please listen when i say this is NOT possible! Its not even TOTM or anything so i'm blaming the air :eek:

Anyway, food today:
B - skinny latte, banana, satsuma
S - small bag of crisps
L - cheese roll
S - satsuma, apple
D - 2 quorn burgers (no rolls), peas and green beans
S - tiny bag of cookies (only 98 cal :A)

Exercise - usual hours power walk to and from work and will try and squeeze something in tonight.

Hope you're all happy and healthy

I also wanted to thank Rosewood for her long post, I clicked the thanks button but this post deserved a special mention, I found it helpful and inspiring. thanks Rose:)

Had a good day yesterday, didn't fall off the wagon and so far today has been fine although I haven't worked out what is for tea, DH is away so tend to eat easy meals,maybe a cheese and mushroom omlet, or a baked potato with sardines. Have to see in a couple of hours.

Well done to the losers, the smiley faces will be into two rows for some soon

B - 2 back rashers, meat only as shared the rind/fatty ends with the dog, fried egg & tomato on plain toast
L - rotini with veg sauce & lf garlic/herb philly
D - slim soup, crispbread
Snacks - satsumas, plums, apple, melon

Exercise 20 mins pulm - meant to assist in increasing lung capacity but it's quite active so I think it counts. Gave the bathroom a 'spring' clean, it's all shiny so no-one's allowed in there now;)

Enjoy the rest of the day

Hi everyone!

I have had a busy week with 2 days going into London which has been very exciting. I have walked so much I have blisters on my feet! Should have done sensible footwear not my nice new boots.

Just need to post, I have eaten lots of rocky road which was supposed to be a thankyou for someone (6 pieces) so I need to stop and get back on the healthy eating plan which generally is going well.

B; almond croissant, 5 juicy fruit sweets ( I know, I am sure my blood sugar went mad, hence urge for rocky road!)
L: Miso soup, crayfish sandwich, apple
S: 6 pieces rocky road
lo fat sausage and mash, veg

I think it would be good for me to plan meals for a few days to get back into the right habits. I also need to make/buy more muesli to get my days off to a good start again.

Thanks Rosewood for your helpful post, very interesting and you have done so well

Haven't weighed this week due to being away.

Evening All,

Thanks for all the comments and I'm glad the post was useful. I just wish I could lose this last half stone! I think the problem is I am already wearing size 8's and reached my original target so find it harder to motivate myself. Still, at least I know on what I eat now I can stay the same rather than piling it all back on again. Not a very healthy menu today I'm afraid. We had a very late lunch, early dinner so I indulged knowing I was in effect having 2 meals for the price of one.

B: Muesli with extra sultanas
L/D: HM egg and chips with mushrooms. 1/2 portion of HM apple crumble and custard (that way if I feel hungry later I can have legitimately have the second half).

Exercise: About 3 miles of walking altogether. 45 minutes non stop swimming.

Good luck with tomorrow's weigh in everyone.

Well went slightly off track today.

Didn't eat my apples, but did eat 1 slice tea cake & a doughnut!!!

But i reduced my dinner portion to make up for it.

We ended up having chicken kiev, new potatoes and sweet corn, so I had a small amount of potatoes.

I have a small bowl i eat from instead of a normal sized plate, I fill this with veg before adding anything else so i eat less of the naughty stuff. I also eat in calorie order low - high so if i'm full i save calories not eating high calorie food for the sake of it.

Hopefully i break the next lb barrier tomorrow morning!
