    northwest thank you for the recipe. It's a bit like my tea loaf recipe (which is delish buttered :o) but it doesn't have oats or juice so will definitely try yours. Also a good idea to slice and freeze.

    Far too much food today, and all wrong...
    B - missed
    S - 2 iced party biscuits
    D - jnr roast pork, cabbage, leek, carrot, tatties, parsnip, stuffing and yorkie. Plain ice cream for pud
    T - toasted cheese & pickle sandwich on 2 slices wm nimble
    S - celery, melon
    E - 4x6 mins with Mr W. Almost an hour raking moss out of the lawn :(

    Sweet dreams :)

    finding it very hard to keep being strict with myself, I'm having 10 days or so on my own as DS1 is away, so no-one else to feed

    I struggle with this too. When im alone during the day I can manage with just a dippy egg for lunch, but with the kids off from school I have to cook a big lunch and end up eating it too. Also they have filled the cupboards with biscuits and I'm eating those.....

    B: left early for a car boot sale, so just grabbed some shortbread biscuits.
    L: half a stuffed pepper
    D: fish goujons, mash and a taste of DS2s macaroni cheese.
    Snacks: 3 choc chip cookies.

    50 mins of exercise

    My day was going great yesterday until I decided to use some of the voucher money I won from Just Eat's Sing For Your Supper comp -

    B: Porridge with milk and honey (expect to see this a lot!!)
    L: Beans, tin of sardines (this isn't usual, I promise, but I had already decided about D)
    D: Half-pounder burger with cheese and mayo, chips, onion rings
    S: Cereal bar, one egg

    Luckily after a good week I am still doing well overall down to 191/192lbs and coming in at under 190lbs on a good morning!

    Hi all

    I totally went off the rails last night and had large turkey roast dinner, large slice of cheesecake with cream, 2 terry all gold chocs, 3 small glasses on wine, 1 can of san miguel :o:o and I never drink on a Sunday :eek:

    Due to the above i couldnt get out of bed today to exercise!!

    Ive had a word with myself, picked myself up, dusted myself down and stuck myself very firmly back on the diet wagon!

    I am now aiming for 1500 cals a day as im obviously eating abit too much to get a loss on the scales at the moment!

    Today:
    B: 30g bran flakes, 2 spoons greek yogurt, couple strawberries chopped, 1/2 tin maderins (needed eating!)
    S: 1 small slice soda bread with butter
    L: HM ham & hummous salad, 2 ryvetas, carrot sticks
    S: 1 small satsuma, red grapes, polo mint
    T: grilled chicken breast, 1/2 tin butter beans, HM pasta sauce
    S: Apple (of and daily allowance of milk)
    E: NONE

    MFP says this little lot is 1536cals so need to ensure i dont eat anything else!
    O/S weight loss 2.5 /10lbs (11st 8.0- 08.02)

    Hmm, I went to the gym this evening. We have a fancy card that tracks what you do, I think off the top of my head it should have been around 250 calories worth. I added on my freestyle bits at the end though, and it told me I'd burned 550 calories. Now my brain is thinking that I have burned 550 calories, so deserve a bit of a treat! Resisting...

    Sorry I'm late. 0.5 lb lost this week. A bit disappointed, I thought I had been good last week. i need to be good this week to justify a hot x bun with real butter and a choc bunny next weekend!
