    Well done on the weight loss SHS, I am sure you can hit half a stone by Monday.

    I am a fan of MFP too. It certainly makes you think about what you are eating and I found that certain items (a very small piece of Th0rntons toffee) are shockingly high in calories:eek: I link mine to my fit bit and also log any runs or swims I do so I can earn a few more calories :) I also found that walking burned nearly as many calories as running!
    Save £10,500 - £2673.77 - 25.5%
    Pay off £7000 - £1743 - 19.4%
    Make £2021 extra income - £99.75
  • Thanks X spender. They do say its not the speed but the distance travelled though I think walkers miss the running buzz (or so I have heard!).

    I have made my standard veg soup (recipe on blog) and calorie counted it at 88 cal for two american cup measures.

    I have a birthday coming up that is in the eleven times table, it might be time to give up my annual claim that I am 39!!
  • Well done on the weight loss :T

  • Thank you.

    It is just the tip of a rather wobbly iceberg!
  • Jolly cold out there. The Plops has been exercised, poo picking done.
  • Poo picking in this weather will have burned off at least a pound! Well done.
    Paid off mortgage nine years early in 2013. Now picking and choosing our work to fit in with the rest of our lives!
    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D
  • Morning all.
    Great Dr Who last night and a woman writer for a change.
    Thank Goodness they killed off Clara. Hope she stays dead this time!

    Apart from Terry Nation (of course) one of the best Blakes 7 writers was a woman (Tanith Lee). Random aside.

    Boy to a party today and the Plops to exercise.

    Never watched a single Capaldi episode :(

    Its funny with the companions since the reboot ... when they've had a celebrity one - Rose Tyler, Donna Noble - I've thought, omigod, its going to be a disaster. But they're not, they've been brilliant. The others are okay (ooh, Karen Gillan was fantastic, so was Arthur Darvill) but, but ... I wonder who they'll bring in next?

  • Surely they have lined up Maisie Williams (Arya Stark from Game of Thrones)?

    Billie Piper is a fab actress.
