Morning Folks





I now understand yesterday’s desire/need for comfort food. Just when I
thought I was through a particular milestone in my life, my body blows a
raspberry in my face as if to say “fooled you”

That happened to my Mum, a few times over about 3 years. Just when she thought they'd gone, 6 months or even more and then... 'hello, did you miss me?!' lol

Breakfast - greek yogurt with muesli
Lunch - half the inside of DD's sausage roll (hate waste), 1.5 slices of ham, bowl of greek yogurt with muesli and dessicated coconut.
Dinner - will be burger (no bun), corn on the cob (treat), and Peace Love and Low Carb's 'Potaotes' O'brien because I have been dying to make it for ages!

Better get chopping!

Hello all

Welcome MaddyWaddy

Well the loft is finally finished so we can now start to enjoy our weeks holiday, and guess what the rain returns.:mad:

Catching up with all the housework this afternoon, I was at college this morning. It was my second week, and after fighting for what was supposed to be the last place on the course only 3 people have turned up so far (including me), if the others dont show next week then they will cancel the course.:( It makes me feel like crying.

Todays plan
B: usual hf cereal and fruit
L: small jacket with tuna and salad, lf yoghurt
not sure as we are mtg friends at our local mediterranean restaurant, will post tomorrow and try to be good, but they do the most amazing desserts.
S: hm teacake later with banana
Ex: no dog walking as at college this morning, hoping the rain stops for later.

Well break over, back to the hoovering.

Hello peeps :hello:

I was wondering if it would be ok to re-join you all? I kind of disappeared earlier in the year thanks to all kinds of chaos breaking out at home and in my head. Seem to be back on track a now and wanted to start again with my weight loss.

Will try and have a read back through some of the thread but not sure I'll manage right back to May!! Are you still doing the friday WI?

Afternoon ladies :hello:

Just popping in to say I'm going to stop logging my food until after the baby comes, as I'm constantly failing to stick to my plans, and it's making me feel crappy! Will keep lurking to try and stay focussed on healthy eating and getting plenty of fruit and veg alongside the constant snacking . Only 6 weeks to go until due date now, so I can't do that much damage I'll try and get back to proper meal planning after baby arrives, and I've got to grips with things, but I'm thinking that won't be before Christmas!

Good luck with the Christmas challenge everyone, I'll be back for the New Years one as I'm bridesmaiding next September and want to drop a few dress sizes before then

Welcome back tink - and yes to the Friday WI (and I have taken over the challenge monitoring from the fantastic ragz!), if you want to be in the challenge (1st weigh in this Friday) just let me know how much you plan on losing!

Ok, todays menu:
B: Porridge
L: pasta pot (didn't eat it on the train yest), rice snacks, apple
pasta with meatballs and some cheese (a bit more than I thought I had grated!)
S: 5 small cracker things, 1 chocolate mousse and 3 pieces of Tablet

Always a tough day when I get back from a weekend at home - Very tired and had minimal food in, so it's all bland/bad. Got the food shopping in, and bought minimal unhealthy foods (only cereal bars and cracker things), so I'm all set for the rest of the week.

daska

Deleted_User - sounds like fun

ragz - what were the potatos o'brien like, I've been wanting to do them since I saw the recipe as well.

MaddyWaddy - :wave:

Done better today.
B - redbush tea
L - pitta with marmite and quark quark oops and salad
S - veg and lamb stew followed by the obligatory mocha with cream

am getting bored of lamb, going to have sausage and (cauliflower) mash tomorrow before finishing it up on Thursday.

Daska, I had a little pack the other day from Mr T's that had a few crackers, some cottage cheese and some chilli dipping sauce in! Not very MSEto buy it as a pack but I did get it yellow stickered and the cottage cheese + chilli sauce was delish! (ps you don't work in a library do you?)
MrsCD, I will stand beside you in your pledge!
WW, My boys helped out at their school open day on Saturday morning! On behalf of all parent's - we really do appreciate what you do!
Caterina, thanks for the link - book on the way!
DDD, Someone wise on this here board told me that anything that involves moving around counts as exercise!!:j

Thank you! I need all the help I can get

I'm not sure if it's the change in the weather or what, but I'm really, really aching and tired at the moment, getting headaches and feeling lousy and falling asleep at any time of the day. I don't feel like I've caught anything though, so just not sure what's up. Maybe I need to go to bed earlier

Still trying to keep to my pledge
