    Good Evening

    A good start to the day bran flakes and skimmed milk, Christmas dinner at school turkey, stuffing, gravy, roast potatoes, mash, sausage/bacon, sprouts, peas and carrots followed by Christmas pud and custard:o, thankfully not a huge plateful. I ignored the mince pies and chocolates.
    A very light tea of poached fish (very small portion) carrots, broc, cauliflower.

    Have avoided eating any snacks, so I reckon I havent done too badly.

    Out for a meal tomorrow, Christmas menu again:eek: so will have a very light lunch, probably melba toast and cottage cheese. We are eating early evening and I am driving so won't be tempted by the wine.

    Have a good evening.

    Rose Wood sounds lovely, DGC are so special. The best thing is you can spoil 'em rotten then send them back to their parents to sort out ;)

    B - F&F ss milk
    D - other half of yesterdays salmon steak, grated potato, carrot & onion fritters
    T - hm turkey & veg soup. Luckily I'm not going out til tomorrow, it's so garlicy (garlicky?) it'd keep a brood of vampires away!
    Snacks - satsumas, grapes, melon, apple, grapefruit

    Exercise - pulled out all white goods to clean behind them. Washed rest of kitchen floor, washed bathroom floor. Vac'd through upstairs & brushed stairs. Really in the mood for it today, still looking around for more to do :eek:

  • Good afternoon all.

    What a blustery day - hope you are all safe and sound.

    Well, been a so-so week for me, good days and not so good days! Its gettting really slippery around our area and i have a terrible fear of falling so my walking has been cut down a lot.

    Despite the plateau am feeling pretty good. I am at a decent weight and am getting happier with my body shape and size. I bought my first ever dress yesterday (OMG - only took 32 years lol) for my work xmas do next week so i am hoping to feel good in that...so really this is a post to say a huge THANK YOU to all you guys who have helped support in this journey of mine. It is by no means finished but i thought it was time to stop and say a word of thanks...you guys are great :T

    Dragon, well done, very proud of you

    Everyone else, hoping you are happy and healthy :)

    Todays food:

    B - coffee and muffin (twins first school play today, it was a treat)
    S - satsuma
    L - hummous and grilled veg sandwich
    s - banana
    D - pizza hut, will be salad-heavy (to celebrate a successful school play lol)
    S - 100 cal frozen yogurt

    Weigh day tommorrow, lets see what it brings. Expecting to stay the same really so some weight off might be a bonus :A

    Good Morning x

    I will officially weigh in tomorrow now as I have been up half the night and so have been guzzling tea and eating medicinal chocolate :whistle::EasterBun (insert Lindt Chocolate teddy bear....you get the picture?)

    I have there-a-bouts STS but will make it official tomorrow.

    Hope you guys are doing ok and wishing you well for good weight loss xx
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Good morning everyone. Hope everyone is feeling well.
    I have already weighed myself, I have stayed the same. So I am a little bit disappointed, but I guess it has to happen sometimes. So I will try a little bit harder this week. [A couple of years ago I would probably have given in at this point, so it shows how far I have come mentally].

    My meal plans are -
    B - porridge, made with SS milk and water, grated apple and dried mixed fruit.
    L - wholemeal pitta, dry fried halloumi and cherry tomatoes
    D- nut roast, brussel sprouts, peas, vegetarian gravy.
    S's - LF yoghurt, fruit and nuts.
    I am going swimming for exercise.
    Have a good day, and good luck with the weigh-ins !
