DKAM: you could stick with the new potatoes and add loads of chick peas, chopped onion or spring onion, other tasty raw or cooked cold vegetables, bit of dressing of some kind, and take loads of fruit along as well. The chickpeas and potatoes will at least fill you up. Some chicken in there would help too unless you are vegetarian of course.

Thanks guys, I'm deffo not a veggie but can't bear chickpease unless it's humous!
I'm thinking maybe doing a tuna pasta with loads of cucumber, toms, onions, bit of ccarrot in there.
I didn't enjoy the tattie salad last time, think it's because they were cold!

Sorry I forgot about the recipie thread, will have a looksie.

I'd definitely make a big pasta salad. I like red kidney beans in mine (cheap and filling) as well as tuna, salad bits etc but maybe you don't like those. You could also have a sandwich if you don't use your HEBs at breakfast time. That plus fruit and you could be eating all day!:rotfl:Oh, and if it's practcal I'd take a flask of coffee, sometimes you get fed up of all cold food.

You can have a red light if you want

The 'trots' were something else - upwards of a dozen times a day - and night!

1. finding a maggot (still alive) on the GF grill when doing breakfast yesterday, binned breakfast
2. realised hadn't cooked egg yet so popped into microwave on half power x 1.5 mins. Except I put it onto 10.5 mins. Explosion.
3. today did similar thing when warming up my coffee at breakfast = roiling boiling coffee.
4. said wd do neighbour's ironing, she pays me £10 has done for years, while inflation has happened in real life and her pile of ironing gets bigger and more boring. They didn't bring it round til 6.30 by which time I was GRUMPY. Did it in a bad humour and....
5. as a treat (treat?) went to co-op for food and got 3 indian dishes totalling approx 600 cals, heated half and ate. TASTELESS.
6. So now having a glass of wine to recompense for tasteless supper.

I could cry at my stupid life sometimes and it's not as if it's terrible things is it :rotfl: I think I need to get out more.

I'm really sorry Blackberry, but this tale of woe made me laugh out loud. It's just the sort of things that happen to me :rotfl:

I'm with the others - don't punish yourself so much. I firmly believe that our bodies tell us when they're where they want to be weight wise and when you come to a 'natural-for-you' weight you should stop.

Excellent news on the shiny award Dizzy - well done you :T

Welcome Northern Star - I don't use sweetener myself but I've been told Splenda is good, especially for cooking with
