    This is mortifying

    But 17st 3lbs

    I was 17st 13lbs when I started this 2 and a bit weeks ago

    My goal weight is 10st so I have a lot to lose :eek:


    At my heaviest in 2010 I was 21st :o so I've lost a bit since then

    Dear Lord, I am calling upon you today for your divine guidance and help. I am in crisis and need a supporting hand to keep me on the right and just path. My mind is troubled but I will strive to keep it set on you, as your infinite wisdom will show me the way to a just and right resolution. Amen.

    Well today is somewhat a cheat day as I'm having sausage mash and peas :o it was that or a jacket potato but am slightly sick of them atm

    Eating out means I don't have a lot of choice but didn't have time to cook before I left the house as my alarm didn't go off

    In my defence this is all I'm eating all day

    But there's nothing wrong with sausage, mash and peas :)

    Please don't let that be the only meal you eat today or feel bad about it. I don't quite understand why you would. I think you're beating yourself up unnecessarily :(

    It's a lot better than nothing. It's traditional british food that we have survived on for centuries. Lots of healthy normal weight people eat meals like that.

    I'm starting to feel uncomfortable posting in this thread. It's incredibly difficult to convey my meaning to people when I don't know what their knowledge of food and nutrition is. I think I'm perhaps alienating some people with my comments. I'm truly sorry.

    It's far easier for me to advise a person when I have their full food diary in front of me and I think I've fallen foul to that on occasions here by commenting on the little evidence some people give.

    I'm not an advisory service here, and certainly not an unpaid one, so I think I'll start taking a back seat in threads like this as I feel it wastes everyone's time, but more importantly my own.

    I have to say, this sort of comment raises my eyebrow.

    Do you feel that any thread you comment on, is a waste of time? No-one has requested that you act in an official capacity. The only one who has given you that role, is yourself.
