Hi all,

Well done all the losers, I'm hoping things will pick up as soon as I sort out my pill again

Today has been good for me, I had a bigger dinner than usual but I also did 11 miles through the forest on my bike so I don't feel so bad

B: 2 wholemeal toast and marmalade

L: 2 wholemeal toast topped with cottage cheese, vine tomato and cracked black pepper

Baked wholemeal pasta in tomato sauce with some mozerella melted on top and a few small pieces of garlic bread and a massive side salad of stuff from the garden

S: Probably nothing else as I'm really full now

Have a good weekend all

I made this today and was v. happy with it. Had with a large green salad, bulgur wheat salad and mozzerella. Rhubarb and nat yog for pud. This looks good but I picked on too many biccies. Off to bed now. Not sure what's happening this weekend as we have families to visit and birthdays to celebrate. Have a good weekend.

Hi all

Had a fantastic day yesterday hiking 5 hours in the peak district but I'm really hurting today as we did an 11 mile mountain bike trek the day before so a bit of an activity overload! Had a take away curry last night but I was sensible and had a tomato and lentil type vegetable curry with half a portion of boiled rice and 2 poppadoms, no breads, no sides so I don't feel too bad

B/L: Wholemeal cheese & chutney sandwiches with a few crisps (yesterdays leftovers)

Roast chicken with mashed sweet potato and steamed cauli, cabbage, broccoli and carrots

S: Might make a gooseberry crumble later but will see how everything adds up in terms of calories then decide

Have a good day all

Hi all,

After whinging at my friend about doing lots of exercise and losing nothing (and even putting on weight one week) my friend convinced me to actually measure myself instead. So I measured about a month ago to order some new trousers from the US and compared to that I've lost 1 inch from my waist and 1 inch from my hips so at least there is some change even if the scales arent backing it up!

B: Ciabatta roll and cream cheese (local Tesco by work had no fruit, milk or wholemeal bread!)

L: Wholemeal pasta salad with roasted butternut squash and red onion and a little green pesto

Not sure yet, probably HM singapore chow mein or prawn laksa

S: Small skinny latte

Hoping for a good week as I go on holiday soon and I want to be able to wear vest tops without worrying about my 'flesh hula-hoop' its the one part of me that always holds the pounds and I'm really paranoid about it

Hi all, another STS for me - but to be honest... the carte d'or icecream on offer at sainsbug and the chocolate brownies I made probably didn't help matters :rotfl:

Other than that, I have been good - even missing of the marge from jacket spuds and skipping the cheese to have tuna and low fat mayo.


My tum definitely feels less bloated than it has been - must be the extra water I'm drinking. And my scales are a bit squew whiff anyway - seem to change their mind by 6lbs each time I get on and off so I have to do an average.


Well done to all those losing - whether weight or in inches - it's all in the right direction.

Need to think up something healthy for lunch before OH gets here at 1 and I opt for bacon and eggs

Keiss 21 - Well Done!
Floyd - muscles weigh far more than fat and inches matter!

hope everyone else is well and reasonable near the waggon, I had a great weekend if it was one of excess.

3 Exams next week so will be knuckling down to study every evening and so shouldn't be naughty this week or next.

Today:
1 slice toast & honey (250 cals)
L: mug shot (pasta in a mug) & crisps (385 cals)
S: pineapple fruit pot (220 cals)
chicken with red thai sauce (jar) and rice (750 ish)

I'm using up a load of stuff that came to light due to cupboards running low over last few weeks.

Hi all,

B: 2 wholemeal toast and cream cheese

L: M&S thai spiced coconut and chicken wrap things (bought yesterday as a treat and there is naff all to them, about 100kCal which is hardly worth eating )

HM scouse with pickled beetroot and a crusty cob (no butter)

S: Maybe a skinny cappuccino if I have time later

Have a fab day all
