Good morning all. Hope everyone had a nice weekend. I went to my first yoga class yesterday and I'm not kidding when I say every muscle in my body aches today. I couldn't even bend over to put tights on this morning! Don't think i'll be trying that again.
Plan for today:
Breakfast: half a tin of peaches, some fat free greek yogurt and a squirt of honey.
Mid morning snack: 3 plums (they're addictive!)
Lunch: Coronation chicken sandwich (but made with quorn and low fat mayo.)
Dinner: Mushroom omlette with some bread.
I will try and not snack too much. Really need to get motivated this week after a few weeks slacking. xx0 -

Evening everyone, just thought i'd pop on and say Hi. I've been looking in on this forum for a couple of weeks but never contributed anything till now. I'm off to get weighed at slimming class in about 20 mins - dreading it!!!! Been really naughty over the past 2 weeks whilst ive been off work. Easter eggs and cakes and lunches out! Tonight will be the reckoning. Hopefully I wont be the only one. Shameful thing is ive been really good all day as if kidding myself it would make a difference then came home and ate 2 pieces of Rocky Road. Theres no hope for me! Let you know how I get on.:coffee: Jules xxx

Delurking to say, I've got an appointment with the trainer for a fitness assessment in two hours. My oldest friend signed me up for a 10K race in December. Jog, walk, or run. We know I can walk the 10K but she figures this will shift the weight.0

Cupboard suprise tea ended up being: jacket tata with scrap butter, salad, defrosted prawns and o/s seafood sauce- made with approx 1 tbsp light mayo, 1 tsp ketchup, splash of vinegar and lots of pepper!
It was actually really nice :T
I have decided to treat myself to ONE rich tea biscuit with a cuppa later- I know what a rebel :rotfl:

oh, no we're not! I think you've caught us all on a good day
:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
Well, I've been good foodwise today but as expected, no time to fit in a walk at lunchtime, barely had time to eat my soup. Not going to beat myself up though, there's only so much I can do.
Sounds like a few of us had a tough time at the weekend. For me, it's lack of a structured day, treats to hand in the house (it's bloomin obvious that I must stop buying them then :eek:), and boredom on a rainy/snowy day.
I must not buy chocolate...I must not buy chocolate....I MUST NOT....

Evening All
I've had a busy day again today but fitted in an evening walk again - I have high hopes for reporting a good weight loss on Friday.
B: Milky coffee and a fun size banana
L: Chicken salad. Raspberries with Greek yoghurtCheesy butternut squash bake (I made 2 yesterday so I could just heat up tonight's when I came in from work). Small piece of chocolate cornflake and sultana cake.
Exercise: 30 minutes DVD - (jayII it's not the Shred DVD but a later one by Jillian Michaels. Apparently this one starts off at about the equivalent of Level 2 of Shred and has 4 levels, not 3. I did do the Shred one last year when I first started exercising and loved it).
7.5 miles of walking.

5 mile walk to town and walked dogs for 30 minutesLife is not the way it’s supposed to be. It’s the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.0
