Afternoon. STS for me. My new scales last week said I put on 3lbs but I really think this was different scales. Whatever it was, now I am where I was on the old scales so that's good enough. I'm still trying and that's all any of us can do

forgot to weigh in this morning, will do it tomorrow. Don't think it will be good!

B missed as up late
L cheese and pickle roll and packet of wotsits
S banana
T minced beef stew with small Yorkshire pudding
plus half banana and custard for pud


The good thing is I managed my five a day as the stew was loaded with veg, however I think my portion control is slipping:o

A whopping minus 3lb for me please. I've had a cruddy week with a whole number of emotional issues so I think I've just not eaten when I ought to. I imagine it'll settle down again next week

Keeping up the good exercise work this evening, already think I'll feel very stiff tomorrow morning...

My gym has some great subliminal product placement as well - it's right next to a McD's and KFC. Someone pointed out that in the pool we spend all our time swimming towards KFC and on the treadmills running towards McD's :rotfl: I wonder if they're getting sponsored for it?

P.S. savesummore it is possible to kick your own bum - the lady teaching my class could, but then we're just mere mortals

Welcome to more newbies

Will weigh in tomorrow as I had to be on the road at silly o'clock this morning

B - couple of polo mints while driving
L - Spanish omelette, green salad
T - apple, slice of toast with banana
S - melon, 2 squares of chocolate
Unfortunately the rocker switch on the treadmill needs replacing and I'm having a heck of a job finding a new one so exercise is very scant atm.

Sweet dreams

I had 30 mins on the Wii last night, I quite like the Step plus, but it can become a bit samey! I went onto Youtube and there are loads of exercise videos available to do. Even if you just want to do 5mins.:)

I was just wondering, who is trying new alternatives to foods. i.e I have bought some bulgar wheat this week. Haven't a clue what to do with it, treat it like couscous??:rotfl:

northwest I think my mum uses it, it's cooked in a similar way to couscous and you can use instead. She also uses it instead of rice.
