    IThis morning I was back to my challenge start weight. There is a chance it's because I was trying to push up to heavier weights at the gym yesterday, meaning my muscles feel quite stiff today. Will try again tomorrow, and if it's still a gain, I'll admit it!

    I'm making a big effort to get more sleep at the moment, I heard it should help with weight loss. I'm getting 8-9 hours a night but still generally feel a bit tired, and it's making me a bit loopy eg. I came downstairs with an empty water bottle yesterday, a minute later I looked at it in my hand and it was full - I don't remember filling it! Must be the heat...

    Menu today:
    B almond porridge
    L adzuki bean stew with bread
    D sausage bolognese and pasta with HM garlic bread
    S 2 oatcakes, 5 crackers with cheese, 3 ice lollies

    Bread is now gone. Crackers were a not of a Friday treat...

    I didn't wi today as all I'm eating is rubbish food when I can be bothered. I know it's not good for me and have bought some 'proper' food which I'll get around to eating over the weekend. Might even dare to stand on the scales tomorrow, we'll see.

    Wish I'd seen the typo KW, could do with a laugh ;)

    I should be happy that it's not a gain but it is very frustrating.

    Good luck everyone with your weigh-ins. I hope there are lots of lovely losses.

    I have lost 1 lb this week.

    Promise to have another "no takeaway" weekend.


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

    Hi

    Decided to miss today's weigh in and wait till next weekend for 2 simple reasons

    1) I'm on holiday from work for 2 weeks and to be honest I'm eating what I want

    2) If I'd actually gone away somewhere for the 2 weeks, I wouldn't be looking for a set of scales to weigh myself on

    I realise I do need to stop eating the carp so I stocked the fridge up with salad, veg and fish yesterday and there is no junk food in the house at the minute (not saying there wont be any later though!)

    Right off to finish wallpapering the bedroom so I can start the painting. Have a wardrobe being delivered on Monday so room needs to be finished by then......once this is done I can relax for the remainder of my time off!
