    well, here goes hoping I'm not as naughty as yesterday!!!

    I'm trying to educate myself to have 3 meals a day and nothing inbetween, which is part of my problem - the 'desire' to be eating. Bit like a smoker I guess, the 'need' to have a cigarette.

    Anyway, food for today:

    Breakfast: cereal, banana and skimmed milk
    lunch: homemade egg fried rice
    dinner: chicken curry with rice

    Still very hayfever-y. Weird, I've never had it into August before,shows the odd weather we are having, although it's only down here that i'm particularly badly affected. Had virtually no signs of it when I was away last week.
    :D"Stay Wonky":D

    Right I am convinced that I haven't lost anything this week (I had a really bad weekend!) but I'm not going to pig out after weight in tomorrow night. I'm going to sit down and have a nice jacket spud with beans and cheese. I need to get control of this again and I'm going to start here.

    So I promise you all that from now on I am going to be really good and start losing some weight again. So today I am going to be eating:

    2 weetabix + Skimmed milk
    Apple
    Banana
    Ham Salad followed by a yogurt
    I'm not all that sure what I am going to have later, but I might do some roast chicken with a few roast potatoes.

    Wish me luck x

    Hi everyone, flying visit, I've ended up on tour, have 77 dates between now and October. Bit of a pain but the cash is good.

    Oh and I've bought a house, I just couldn't resist. Motgage sorted but I think we'll rent it out for a year until we're ready to go. Visa will be through by October and it'll be dead tempting to go then. I've even got a school for my little one (who's birthday it is today) HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMBER-DAISY!!! I know I wasn't supposed to buy a house but I couldn't resist. I'll leave you to do the maths on how much it cost... oh ok £135,000 crazy!

    Here's the link, it's a new build and these pics aren't the best, but I think it's lovely.

    No idea about my weight, diet hasn't been good at all. Hopefully I'll catch up with you all later, I'm spending the day home with my little'un so might be popping in and out.

  • good luck with the move toto when it happens - house does look good. Where are you touring?

    Kick started my New Healthy Lifestyle by having an op yesterday - general anaesthetic so nothing to eat from 9pm on monday eve til 5pm yeterday. Got home and had 6 cream crackers and dairylea (traditional recuperation food) and 2 squares of dark choc - it turned out my nurse is 40 2 days before me and is determined to be fit not by then as she put it. Quite nice having a girly chat for a change!

    Today i've had a bowl of cereal and semi-skimmed milk not sure what else as i think effects of anaesthetic are strting to kick in - got to have a day in bed :T and no housework allowed for a week in case I get dust in my eye (they’ll have to decorate the living room without me ‘sigh’ lol). On the downside no swimming, running or aerobics for about a month :eek: :j :D

    hope everyone has agood day

    I'm doing a UK tour, which is going through Europe sometime after, then Japan, next year USA. I don't like to name drop so I won't tell you which band it is. I'd rather not do the full world tour though, tour busses seriously do my head in and between you and me the producer is a bit of an a@@.

    Food for me today has been,

    2 chocolate fingers and a cappuccino

    Lunch will be nothing

    Dinner will be pizza and birthday cake!

    I am going nowhere near the scales. I've probably gained 2 stone this week alone!

    Stop teasing Toto - tell us !!!!!

    The house looks lovely, I would want to go as soon as possible too.
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:
