Creeping in to make a confession

On Thursday when I took fruit bread for lunch I did 6 slices, had 4 for lunch and ate the other 2 walking home. Had 4 more when home then 4 more before bed so ended up eating the whole loaf with butter :eek: the only saving grace (if you can call it that) is it was a small 400g loaf and the end bits were tiny
.
So note to self, cannot be trusted to have that brand of fruit bread in the house as its too yummy
. Have a free from one that's Been there since Wednesday and totally not interested in that.
On plan yesterday and so far today, now watching England v Italy and Italy scored already :mad:. If they carry on I may just have to eat chocolate
.
Talking of Valentine's Day (as you were) I have been with my hubby 30 years and never had a single card (we don't do mothers or Father's Day either). He does though send me numerous texts over the day saying he loves me. He waits in car while I go into work waving and blowing kisses every day too, my colleague thinks it's loverly and says it brightens her day to see :rotfl:. Even sitting here watching TV he's told me he loves me 3 times already (gets annoying after a while especially if I'm watching something :rotfl:). Love him dearly though.Its not what you do but the way that you do it, thats what get results :T

Woohoo lost half a pound. This has been my smallest loss so far and whilst I was a little hoping for more as I had such a naughty weekend last weekend it could have so easily been a gain.
Went with my friend after as a guest to her gym for a bit of a swim. I am very tempted to join but £29 a month is too much for me to spend really... at least its no contract so if I wasn't going enough I could just stop going. I did talk about signing up to someone there but they said they wish they could negotiate price but apparently they aren't allowed to its set by other people (part of a chain). So I walked away (if they secretly really could negotiate I'm sure they would have done, I said my partner might be interested in joining too but not at that price).
Not going to count my syns today. Fiance and I have a tradition of getting a Valentines takeaway so that is what we'll do. Both got the week off work this week so I think it'll be tough to be good all week but we'll do our best!Trying to lose weight (13.5lb to go)0 -

Just wanted to say that your photos of meals always look amazing mich. They look professionally, presented cooked and photographed. I'm in awe!Quick question, Does anyone fry lite their bacon in pan, I can never be bothered in grill and not keen on microwave!
No, I don't bother under the grill. Occasionally if I'm frying it with something else (egg, mushrooms) but it's not compulsory. I use as little as possible as it's expensive (although widely on offer now at £1.50).
caterina, hope you have a great time. At least mushy peas are free!!:rotfl: Just wanted to say that once you've joined you can go to any group you like. I live in a city so sometimes go to another group if I need a different WI time. Consultants can vary a lot.
I've eaten SW so far today (porage and then a veggie omelette). I think that'll be about it until Monday. Breakfasts will probably be OK as even in hotels you can find SW things but I'll worry about that next week.0 -
