    Good morning all. A misty start but the sun is trying it's best now.

    Hope everyone has a great day.

    I reckon it's worth a full scan of the home section, for anyone who has time. There were a few random items scanning at lower than SEL prices, although nothing mega cheap. From memory pepper mills, various coasters, tablecloths, some baking bits, utensils......
    I'd run out of time scanning clothes and shoes so I probably missed loads.

    I also found jewellery box chocs which scanned at £10 :eek:

    For me, if I eat healthily and don't exercise I eat more :o throw in half an hour of good exercise and I eat less :j:)

    I'm back in the groove since the start of the month - need to get back to fighting weight :) Since the start of the month I have walked 47 miles :) Walking is excellent form of cardio it uses the biggest muscles in the body = more calories burned. You can vary the pace to make it even better.

    Lift weights - the more muscle you have the faster your metabolism - more calories burned at rest :D What could be better? Ladies don't be afraid of lifting weights you are not going to end up bulky as you simply do not have enough testosterone.

    Water and plenty of :)

    Ive only been going a couple of weeks. I thought lack of exercise was my main problem so Ive got a step counter and I try to go out for at least an hour a day and my target is the standard ten thousand steps but I often exceed this - the walk, supermarket, general walking about trip etc. I actually love the walks and love doing them - just hope the weather holds a bit longer.
    Food is another issue, I am keeping within the Kcals most days although I have a day off at the weekend - just a bigger main meal and some wine. I am trying to increase the fibre content, more fruit and drink and have much smaller portions of fatter things - 20g of cheese is my limit.
    I've only ever eaten fruit, yogurt and muesli during the day anyway - I know you are not supposed to have the bulk of your food at night but I don't have time in the daytime and anyway if I have a big lunch I just end up sleepy and unable to function in the afternoon.

    I always drink gallons of water

    Nothing much is happening yet. Some days I am 2 pound less than my start weight but it goes up and down between these 2 points.
    So actually I am no further on - most people seem to loose a lot in the first few weeks before it slows down to a pound a week or so.
    I know I should be patient but I can see me being about the same at the end of the month

    Good Morning. :)

    I was knocked up by the builders again wanting to be plugged in. :o

    Mr TS left for work really early this morning and I had just snuggled myself back under the duvet again oblivious to the world. :eek:
