  • OK today have done 60 min walk, taken all of the Christmas decorations down and cleaned all of the downstairs

    B - Poached egg on toast
    D - Cold meat salad, olives, slice of water melon
    T - HM low fat chicken curry, small portion of rice, 1/3 of a HM nann bread and x1 bajhee
    S - 5 quality street

    Promise to swop the quality street for fruit tomorrow.

    Have just watched some of the Hairy dieters and their cassoulet looked really tasty
    I am playing all of the right notes just not necessarily in the right order :D.

    S 12 nuts plus 2 dolly mixtures

    20 min dog walk
    15 mins yoga
    Signed up for and arrived at 90 min yoga class only to find it had been canceled so did 30 mins stretch and toning plate and (stupidly) signed up for boot camp class tomorrow (why ?)

    I avoided the box of biscuits, quality street and hotel chocolate selection in the office kitchen too. Was blinking tempting at 4pm!

    Hi all,

    can I join too please. I want to lose about 3 - 3.5 stone overall but that's a bit scary to think about all at once :eek: so for now I am aiming to lose a stone over the next 2-3 months. I was already going to start meal planning (partly to help cut our grocery bills and partly to stop me panicking at dinnertime and feeding my girls either sandwiches or pasta and sauce yet again just because I can't think of anything else to make :o) so this will fit in perfectly. I really want to start 'eating healthily' rather than 'dieting' and get my weight under control before I pass all my terrible eating habits on to my lovely girls.

    PS Louby40 I really hope you don't mind me copying your signature - you seem to be doing the same challenges as me. Good luck!

    Kittenkirst and anyone else who uses myfitnesspal - if you don't mind me asking, what is your screen name on myfitnesspal? I'm on there and could use an active friend to help keep me motivated (if I see your feed, I'll be more likely to keep up with things on mine). :)

    I'm WelshWoofer on MFP too - the more the merrier!
