    Morning all :)

    Another one who has to confess, I ate a little sponge cake, a custard cream and a bourbon biscuit when I was out last night :o, so yesterday was a carp food day. Still, it's behind me now so face forward and back to 'normal'...

    B - spicy fruity porridge
    D - grilled 1/2 gammon steak, tomato, mushroom, dry-fried egg, small jacket
    T - 3 Crackerbread w/marmite/prawns/marmalade
    S - melon, pear, apple, kiwi
    E - 15 mins weights/stretch/usual this morning. Hopefully the plasterer will be here to give me a quote soon so I can get to the gym, otherwise will do more at home this afternoon.

    Sun's out and so is the washing. I'm going out there too, to do a bit of rescuing of waterlogged plants if I can! Have a great day :)

    :jHi everyone,
    made me feel better to read that others are struggling at the moment with keeping on track. I'm convinced this horrible cold rainy weather isnt helping as im comfort eating infront of the tv because its too cold and horrible to be outside! We need some lovely sunny weather so we feel like exercising more and eating salads again. I'm also craving chocolate at the moment. I've got 5lbs to lose to reach my goal weight and I just cant seem to get there at all. Keep up the fight friends, im sure if we keep encouraging each other we will get there in the end!
    Ju

    I totally agree ref the weather!!!

    Yesterday went pretty much to plan apart from I had a small peice of birthday cake as It was my best friends babies 1st bday!! It was a small peice though

    I have an exam after work tonight so feel really nervous today :eek:- unfortunatly I can still eat when im nervous :rotfl:

    B: Porridge, banana, 1 toast
    S: Apple, 2 x satsumas
    L: HM leek and potato Soup, HM Pitta Bread
    S: Yog and maybe 2 finger kit kat (im going straight to exam from work so may need something to 'keep me going' :o)
    T: Going out to N*ndos :eek: will try and be good :o

    Porridge and soup is not really what I was expecting to eat in June!!!!

    hi everyone still managing to resist the lure of the crisps, my downfall not chocolate. I'm on a low carb boost to my eating regime as I seemed to have hit a plateau. 11 days on 7 to go!

    On a positive note had to go and get fitted for new bras and have gone from 34HH to 32G hope this translates into pounds off. Tomorrow will tell.

  • Well, best laid plans and all that ...
    Tonight's plan of shredding, pampering and doing my nails whilst watching 'the house the 50's built' have gone out of the window. Himself had a car accident on the way home. Thankfully he is fine but old' faithful, Polly Punto is a write off. Buffoon in a white van didnt know his brake from his !!!! and ploughed into the back of him. Himself understandably not up to gallivanting so watching Oireland lose at home instead so no Shred for me. Plus no swimming tomorrow morning as I'll have to drive him to where've meets his car pool buddies. Ho hum :(

    Food wise I haven't been that bad, though two mini packs of biccies was not necessary!
    Breakfast- glass of almond milk, apple and grapes
    Dinner- smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel, 2 mini choc cookies
    Snack- two more mini choc cookies!
    Tea- 2 poached eggs, mushrooms fried in fry light, 2 slices of whole meal toast, baked beans
    Snack- activia fat free yoghurt

    I'm not hopeful for a good result tomorrow but I WILL get to my goal!
