Well, after managing ONE DAY with no snacks, I am clearly an expert :rotfl:

I am just watching "Diners Drive ins and Dives" on the Food Network - OMG the food looks incredible!!

Not another one who drools over Food Network! I LOVE it, all of it. Barefoot Contessa is my DH's favourite so its looking good me be as she's a little tubby.

Food still not planned again today as felt yuck. This does not bode well for my WI tomorrow.

Eaten today:

Iced coffee
banana

Roast beef and onion sandwich

Pork steak, steamed pots, broad beans,
carrots & peas with HM apple sauce.

Pk crisps, sml chocolate & coconut bun. 1 sq if chocolate.

At least loads of exercise in the garden today.

Last time I lost weight I found crochet and cross stitch kept me out of trouble. I'm soooo boring. :o

Today I have had:-

B - sultana bran with semi skimmed milk
L - 2 crumpets with Mr T's value butterly spread
D - HM toad in the hole, mashed potato with semi skimmed milk
Snacks - WW jaffa cake bar (which OH got a pack of for 49p, reduced from £1.99), 1 malted milk biscuit (work colleague tempted me, lol!)
Drinks - 3 cups of black coffee, latte with semi skimmed milk, 1 cup of tea with semi skimmed milk, half bottle of white wine (with dinner) and 8 glasses of water
E - 20 minute walk, vacuuming/cleaning for 45 minutes, 15 mins aerobics, 40 mins on exercise bike (2 sessions of 20 mins), also just had a bop round the living room to Bruno Mars song 'Locked out of Heaven', lol!

OH also brought home a pack of 6 Twix fingers, which all staff were given free, but I'm not going to have more than 1 a day, and only if I've enough calories left for it!

Morning all, felt so fed up with myself after posting last night that I went for one of my walks down the lane, took about an hour so something. Not sure it will have worked of a whole snickers but hey ho! My plan for today is as follows and will get another walk in tonight.
b - Aldi crispbread and marmite
d - shepherdy type pie, curly kale, new carrots, spring greens, gravy.
t - Dippy eggs
Snacks. have some leftover pineapple right way up cake. Hubs and friend will have theirs for pudding I will keep mine in the fridge and cut it up and have for snacking. Would be better not to have it at all but hopefully this way will stop me heading for something worse.:eek:
Just hope that I have a least stayed the same this week! Going to be another tricky weekend as we have respite again this weekend so making biscuits etc! I don't buy crisps or stuff like that and luckily she loves fruit and veg but she does love a bit of a treat.
I wish you all a wonderful day.

Ohhh, another sneaky weigh in this morning is still STS (that's not my weigh in btw TG - I'll wait and see if I can get a lb off by tomorrow!)

sugarpuss, well done on your walk - that is something to feel positive about pineapple cake sounds gorgeous - may I ask how it is 'right side up'?

CCP

Sneaky WI this morning suggests it'll be STS for me tomorrow, too, which would be acceptable-ish. :undecided

Today goes:

B - cherry muesli with a full fat black cherry yoghurt (the last one, then it's over to low fat / fat free ones next time I go shopping)
L - aubergine and broad beans in tomato sauce (LO from last night's gratin); two rye not-very-crispbreads (the packet's been open too long!); two nectarines
D - spicy roast squash and bean salad

I'm out with friends tonight which will mean some alcohol, but I'm intending to limit myself to two small glasses of wine with soda water, which is considerably less calorific than the cider I usually drink (although also less tasty ).

Sugarpuss- what are Dippy eggs? Are they the same as boiled eggs?

Weigh in day for me today and I've lost 1lb. :dance: It can come off in any amounts it likes so long as it comes off.

I wasn't expecting to lose this week so I think the gardening has helped to work the cals off.

Food planned:

Iced coffee
sml choc/coconut bun :whistle:

Blue cheese and pear herby salad
3 crackers
Watermelon

Mixed meat salad sandwich
Banana

I'm interested in the 'pineapple right side up cake', too. :drool:

TG, after my own sneaky weigh in this morning I think I'LL be sending YOU a whole packet of oreos!

I made the big mistake at the weekend of buying 2 bars of chocolate because it was less than half price...my love of a bargain overriding my dieting brain . I thought I could hide them in the freezer...do you know in this weather it only takes 5 minutes for them to be eatable But really, should 2 bars equate to a... *whisper* 2lb gain?

I'm not even hopeful that I can save it today...I'll be good through the day, but am going out to eat with friends tonight. Going somewhere posh! my friend has wanted to go to this fancy place which does a lot of weddings and is very expensive for ages...so we're going today, they do a reduced price 3 course deal before 6 pm. 3 courses! I never eat 3 courses, I need room for dessert Won't be drinking though, I have to drive home.
