    Well according to MFP I'm slightly over my 1300 calories today. Will be thrilled with a STS this week. No excuses now, no birthdays, mothers' days etc so can do better next week ;)

    Thanks savesummore & Sparrer

    I have lots of sympathy for you! I just needed to get it out of my system really. I thankfully am not in a constantly customer facing job, although the same client did have a bit of a go at me again today :mad: He hasn't forgiven me for something (fairly minor IMO) I did 6 weeks ago, and now takes every opportunity to have a dig. A manager has had to step in twice now to stop him shouting at me! Part 3 commenced today, but over the phone, so I found a reason to run away quickly. I think I've clocked up enough of an excuse for a glass of wine tomorrow.

    Anyway back to dieting! I stepped on the scales this morning, and it wasn't my friend. I'm going to weigh in tomorrow though, as the scales were wandering about within a 2lb range, so I'm hoping tomorrow it will have decided whether I'm an STS or a 2lb gain :eek:

    0.5lb loss this week. I am really pleased after a bad start to the challenge. Haven't done any exercise apart from lots of time in the veg garden:)
    Loved our trip to the West Coast USA. Death Valley is the place to go!

    Please can you tell me what the weight loss challenge is, it might be very helpful.


    Fluffysox. Do you find MFP helpful. I use it to and it does help me to manage what I eat but felt I needed something else.

    Have a good day

    I've been a much better behaved dieter this week, much stricter...and I've lost 2 lbs.

    I'm expecting a really disrupted weekend with lots going on...will I be able to keep them off? :)


    If you could live one day of your life over again, which day would you choose?

    Good morning!

    I am reporting 1.54 lbs GAIN this week! It is actually very good as I thought it would have been worse than that! I didn't overdo it this week but I haven't tried enough (or at all) either! :o
    Even skipped my class last night: I really wanted to go (I always look forward to Thursdays) but I had no strength in me. Just wanted to rest.
    ..on the other hand, I did prepare the dough for our pizza tonight! Maybe all that kneading counts towards exercise?!?!? :D

    So yesterday:

    B: Coffee + Porridge with half SS milk/half water + honey + blueberries
    S: Banana
    L: Half portion of veggie cottage pie (done with green lentils)
    D: Thai chicken curry (HM out of the freezer) with a mountain of rice. Dessert: white grapes

    Good luck with your scales, everyone!

    Speak later!!
