    Very cold here.

    would have had a more substantial lunch but had to go on an appointment with one of the chaps I support, had a heap of mash and cauli, broccoli, carrots with the sausages.. filled me up anyway, esp with the naughty custard (wasn't LF) :o

    Im glad i have this thread to bounce things off because without seeing FE's comment on the new optimising books i would have been none the wiser with not having a regular consultant so i can ask away now on thursday night and make it look like i know something haha - didnt go down too well when i knew ahead of others the new hifi bar because you all had been chatting about it. It makes it look like i have inside info :rotfl:

    My consultant was the same when I knew the flavour of the new Hi Fi before she was 'allowed' to tell us! We know she has the new members packs as she posted a pic on Facebook of all her boxes of them but it took her three weeks to give those little Christmas card things out so who knows when we will get our packs!

    I am knackered tonight and having an attack of negative body confidence (can get me a few times a week or just a couple of times a month, either way I'm having a confidence wobble now) so think I may have my hot choc and chomp and then retire to bed :)

    Night all, catch you tomorrow! (WI day dum dum daaaaaaah [poor attempt at creating drama I know]....)

    Despite the crappest week on record eating cookies and chocolate and knocking back alcohol like they were out of fashion I can report a 1/2lb loss. This is because I worked damn hard at pulling the week back on track from sunday. And Body Magic
    Very pleased with that tiny loss.

    Morning all

    WW yog and a cup of tea to start me off. In a little bit I will have a poached egg, half a toasted roll (1/2 HeB) and some baked beans followed by an apple and satsuma.

    Lunch - homemade chicken and sweetcorn soup (approx 1.5syn) and other half of roll (1/2 HeB)

    Tea - rice, grilled turkey and veg sauce (5 syn) with mixed veg

    HeA- milk in tea

    Money is a bit tight for the next couple of weeks but I need to get a birthday and Christmas present for my brother and need milk/veg...not masses, maybe works out to about £25 max for the lot but going to have to work that out this morning as I really don't want to put anything else on my credit card as I've been trying (and failing) to clear it for a few months now :/

    So happy I purchased a 12week countdown when I did!

    Well done Shellie :D

    I didn't know we were getting new books, only saw the think in the little card about new member packs in wk 11, as Mich said.

    Had lots of dreams about food last night, very odd. I kept eating and eating and felt bad that I had blown the diet, lol! No idea where that came from as been on plan so don't think I have any subconscious guilt! :rotfl:

    EE today:
    B: Bran flakes (B), milk (A), raisins (2), banana
    L: L/O spag bol, 2 clementines
    T: Special fried rice (3) with chicken and stir fried veg
    S: Freddo (5)

    Have a good hump day all! :)

    Plans for today postponed because of weather so blissfully have day unexpectedly to myself.:)

    Today's EE plan:
    B: HEB porage, HEA milk plus teas
    L: bubble & squeak from LO veg
    D: adapted version of Tana Ramsey's sausage casserole
    http://uktv.co.uk/food/recipe/aid/588087
    (sausage, onion, leeks, mushrooms, butterbeans, cabbage) probably with new potatoes but may do roasties.
    Syns: small juice, tbsp pickle, 1 for my 2 sausages.

    Have a good day all.

    Thanks for all your replies re new books. :j Shame we can't have them now !! would certainly help to motivate me during this difficult month.

    Have any of you picked any xmas gifts to help you on your weight loss journey in 2013? I was thinking of one of those frying pans that you can put in the oven. Also tempted by a slow cooker....
