(((hugs alliwant))))
Well done for the sts victory.:T
You've all done brilliantly.
And glad to hear vixstar that it could have been worse,lolI try to take one day at a time, but sometimes several days attack me at once0 -
erm.... ive been awfully naughty and had a mcdonalds for dinner
but when you work 11:30-8 its hard to eat anything properly. Thats my excuse!!
Well done to everyone this week, weve all (apart from me) tried really hard!
BB: Im wondering if to go cold turkey with milk, im still having it in tea and my stomach is still dodgy. Its still cramping up all the time. Im starting to think its not milk, but i know milk isnt good for me because i always feel ill a lil bit after i have a lot of milk.
What breakfasts are good ones? I need something to fill me up untill 1ish from eating at about 8. I can have porridge but thats milky and i wouldnt have it without milk and then i NEED to have sugar on it else i wont touch it. Toast is a fave of mine, but then i have to have anchor spreadable on it else i wont eat it. Then theres cheerios and thats milk. So thats my three options, each one a negativeI dont like egg or anything proteiny like that, so i feel stuck with breakfasts!

Evening all, I remembered to weigh in this morning.... although I did have to get completely undressed, not 2 minutes after getting dressed, doh!
-2lb this week. Not a bad result without exercise methinks. Hope to increase that with exercise (rain, rain, go away.. etc.)
Well done with all the losses this week guys. Puddings, WOW!! Well done, you certainly have the bit between your teeth now, don't you? Way to go.
Tonight we've had a bit of a treat, with h/m apple crumble, but that's it for the rest of the week pretty much. I'm taking an Indian takeaway up to my lovely friend who's birthday it is tomorrow, but she's been having a really tough time of things recently, with bereavements, husband working away, lots of pressures and responsibilities, so I am getting her a curry, and I'm going to have their very lush tikka chicken. It still feels like a treat, and tastes divine. I won't miss having a pasanda that way, and I don't eat any rice.
Right, gotta get online and start car hunting... my people carrier has to go because it's just too big for our needs now. My BF's mate has an audi A4 estate for sale, but we know he's trying to make £600 profit on the car if we buy it off him, which I don't feel happy about, even though it would still be reasonably priced.One day the clocks will stop, and time won't mean a thing

Here are some ideas:
fruit salad
yoghurt (or soya yoghurt if you're cutting out all dairy)
porridge made with water and sugar/sweetner/honey/nutmeg/cinnamon/banana/etc
rice milk on cereal
bacon sandwich with ketchup/brown sauce
sausage sandwich
hash browns
beans on toast
cereal bars
PS - Mazza, salty porridge is just. plain. wrong.Betty B: The Eternal Procrastinator....
