Welcome ghostlove- your day sounds lovely. Which country park are you going to? I see your info says your in Portsmouth so just wondered if it was local to there? (im close by, theres a few of us on here along the south coast). Hows the rest of your planning going?

Yep, Petersfield register office and then Queen Elizabeth Country Park. We're coming along well with planning, though it's pretty easy - we're having a very casual affair, the BBQ is bring-yer-own-food/drink, etc. The only really traditional thing we're doing is hiring a professional photographer - I'm an amateur and I knew I wanted decent photographs of our big day.

Oh I used to love days out at Queen ELizabeth country park. What a fab place to have a bbq for your reception. Ill definately do a sun dance that morning for you!

Well Ive just gone through the suit brochure and pointed out what I like, but have told him as long as he tries suits on first and goes with what looks good Ill be happy.

Another good day food wise for me - that's three days in a row :T ha!

It is 128 days, 17 hours, 34 minutes, 22 seconds until Tuesday, July 17, 2012 at 2:00

Ok, heres my not very good food for the day:
Lunch: I had a toasted kingsmill deli soft with cheese and some low fat smoked sausage with some green leaves, tomato and cucumber
Dinner: Lasagne with some potato wedges and some salad

Luckily because I went to the gym I am only about 100 cals over my daily allowance!

I may have a penguin later aswell if I want some chocolate! I think because whatever Im doing seems to be working I dont feel that encouraged to cut out the naughty things! I know that I probably would lose weight quicker but I do think that for me personally still allowing treats (in moderation) works.:D

Well done on being good again Natalie.

My food diary:
B - same old
L - left over chicken stir fry with a splash of nandos peri peri garlic sauce
S - whole fat yoghurt* (actually have one of these every time I write just 'yoghurt')
T - home made burger* using lean steak mince served with dry roasted veggies
S - 1 kitkat* (have run out of hotel chocolat chocs)

* I definitely agree with you Emma, when I'm being 'good' I'm by no means depriving myself of anything other than pizzas/burgers/overly carby rice based indian dishes :rotfl: I have been talking to myself today though - telling myself that I do not need pizzas etc, I can stop drinking I can stop eating crap too. So far it seems to be working... ha!

Okay guys - I need some recommendations - next weekend I'm going away with some girls from work but I want to carry on eating sensibly. Lunch and tea won't be a problem as we will be eating out at carvary type places so I can be in control of what I eat and make sure I have loads of veg to fill me up. But breakfast is a bit less sorted - I am a big believer in breakfast - if I skip it I'll find it much harder to not indulge at lunch/tea. So I eat around 400 calories for breakfast so I was thinking of having some breakfast bards - looking at the special K ones I can have around three of them. Soo my question is can anyone recommend any tasty but filling ones? Thanks!

PS MrD is a star - he's just dyed my hair

How about Belvita biscuits? Ive had these before and thought they were nice, not as filling as a proper breakfast, but more filling than just the usual breakfast bars.

Yes I liked the belvita biscuits as well, they definitely filled me up more than a normal cereal bar would. Otherwise, get to a healthfood shop and buy a couple of NAKD oatie bars - they are AMAZING and soooo filling because they are just squished fruit and nuts - I'd be addicted to them if they weren't so expensive! http://www.naturalbalancefoods.co.uk/store/nakd-oatie-bars/default.aspx

They sell them in health food shops and I've seen them in supermarkets - my fav is coco loco and the berry one.
