    morning!

    Babymother - well done!:T

    Meanmarie- good luck with your weigh in x

    Suzid - the backs a good bit better thanks but not completely back to normal yet. I returned to work yesterday and managed a fairly good day. Today wont be easy as there's a party on with lots of goodies so am taking my lunch and tea with me. Will try and not give in to temptation.

    B - spaghetti on toast

    L - hard boiled egg and newpotato salad

    D - yet to decide but will probably include potato wedges and salad - just need something to go with it(possibly salmon)

    snack will hopefully be fruit and yoghurt.

    have a great day all x

    Creeps on...very ashamed...put on another 2 pounds! :eek::mad::eek:

    Not really surprising...not been able to walk much this week thanks to my crushed toe...got my trainers on for the first time in two weeks yesterday. A bit tight with the dressing as the toe is still weeping, but getting there.

    I also had two meals out in the past week: last Friday lunch and then this Wednesday evening...very scrummy, but not very "healthy", too much cream methinks!!

    I am going to go back to the Paul McKenna book to try and stop me from eating chocolate...FOREVER! I just can't seem to have "just one peice"...it sets me off to eating masses...and I hate myself for it. I think I can survive the rest of my life without chocolate...if it works that is!! Oh I hope so! :o

    Right...off to find that book...!

    Have a grat weekend everyone.

    I know the feeling - my boys know when I'm on a diet because we dont have chocci digestives in the house (I dont stop at just one or two!!!) or proper crisps instead I buy quavers or monster munches (I dont like them so wont eat them!!!) and I've also asked the boys not to leave chocolates on the table near where I sit (they can have them but not leave them sitting around or they might disappear!!!)
    2010 has got to be better than the last two years!! :rotfl:

    Weight loss to date: 3 Stone & 5lbs!! Weight loss this week: 2 lbs !!:j

    We have more chocolate stuff etc about these days as DS2 is a serious rugby player and diabetic too, so needs to have plenty of high-sugar/high-carbs stuff about the house for when he goes hypo...which can be often. Lots of bags of fun-size bars to keep him going...which are soooo easy to munch on!! :D

    Had some bad news tonight, so off to have a bit of a mope.

    Urghhhhhhh why do I do this to myself?

    Following a rubbish day I went out with work folk again and this time we had mexican food, I ate too much for dinner and had 2 Cornettos later on :eek::eek:

    I am starting to become a food snob as whenever I eat out I am quite often disappointed with my meal as I think I can do much better. Tonight was one of those times where everything just tasted bland and really unsatisfying. Never mind, off to farmers market tomorrow to buy good fresh food and do some cooking :)

    B: Bran Flakes with banana and semi skimmed milk

    L: Egg sandwich (absolutely vile) and a bag of Skips crisps

    D: Shared nachos, chicken burrito (horrid and bland) 2 cornettos :o

    S: 1 piece of bakewell tart

    Have a good weekend all :D

    the 400 meringues which have been the bane of my diet will be out of the house today so temptation will be gone! For now!
