Welcome FAIRENUFF and good luck. You can do this!

I'm all lurgied up unfortunately. Seem to have the never ending sneezes, it's driving me nuts. My nose feels on fire. I had this a couple of years ago and it was my sinuses so am wondering if it's the same thing. Can't sleep, can't concentrate blah blah blurgh. Just feel ugh. Sorry for the moan!

On the SW front, another day of trying hard here. I'm determined to have a good loss come WI on Saturday.

Don't have that particular problem with my legs, but I know sometimes I feel fatter when I am lighter than I was before. Have you been doing lots of exercise and building your leg muscles?

Hope you feel better soon. Feel free to moan. It really gets you down when you feel ikky, especially when it stops you sleeping.
Take care of yourself

Monday morning and back to work, and need a good 2 days before tomorrow nights weigh in. I am so bloated, it's a good job my work skirt has an elasticated waist


Today's plan is to try and eat something other than bread even if it tastes all yukky and weird.


Breakfast - miso noodles (yes I'm stinking the office out )
Lunch - pasta salad
Dinner - risotto
Snacks - strawberries, cereal bars, aldi quavers, ginger sweets (I'm told they help with nausea)


HA - milk and cheese
HB - cereal bars
Syns - miso (0.5), quavers (3), ginger sweets (if they work, I don't care how many syns!)

Morning all, hope everyone had a good weekend! I still need to report a 0.5lb loss from Friday please Kathryn

I've easily put on that and more over the weekend - I just can't seem to stop cramming rubbish in my mouth as soon as I feel a tiny bit stressed over any little thing

Anyway, back on the horse today:

B - Banana, apple, coffee
D - Frozen jacket spud (1), cottage cheese, pickles
T - Diet cola chicken, couscous
HEA - Milk
HEB - Alpen Lights
Syns - Sugar (3), jacket potato (1), hot choc (2) = 6

Hi Kathrynha, no, it's not through exercise I don't get enough of that.
I can't do much I am a slightly disabled . I know what you mean though aboutfeeling fatter and yet you are lighter. very strange.
