WEEWDY, do you realise that you have lost about 6 stones in as many months? That's astonishing.
My mother weighed 6 stones before I arrived. Poor woman, 4ft 10ins tall, weighing 6 stones and she produced a 10lb baby looking, as the doctor said, 3months old already. My father who saw me 10 minutes later inspected my fat little legs and gave his opinion that I would never be able to wear silk stockings. He was right, I never have.

Anyway, all that from a body that weighed what you have already lost.
It makes ya think, dunnit?

Hello newbies, well done all losing weight and those still persisting.

Sunday July 23rd I did something naughty. First time in 10 months I went over my calorie allowance. I didn't eat anything bad, I just ate more - 198 calories more! I was just really hungry for some reason, but because I am anything from 250 - 500 down every other day, I hope it won't do me any harm.

Weigh in on Thursday - can I see me go from nearly 14st down to a figure beginning with 10....in 10 months obviously, I don't mean overnight! 10st something on Thursday will be great, but i'll be patient if i'm not 10st something:mad:.....honest

Very boring day today. I find it easier to ear more or less the same things everyday. More variety means more choice, means more decisions, means more opportunities for going wrong.
Anyway....

Br: boiled egg with 2 crispbreads.

Lunch: Ham and cheese salad
Sugar free jelly with a splash of evaporated milk.

1 Apple.

Felt like chocolate tonight so had a mug of Options Belgian Chocolate drink.

Bread deprivation set in today so I thawed out 2 slices of HM bread and made a ham sandwich for lunch which I ate with some salad. I'm quite proud of myself that I stopped right there. Before I would have been so cross with myself that I would have thrown in the towel and gone on a complete binge.

Something must be working in my brain.

Knitwitch and Zafira, thanks for the suggestions for peaches.
I like the idea of peaches in brandy. I don't do alcohol but could use as desserts for DH.
Could the peaches be cooked in a slow cooker for the chutney, any other ingredients?

Weewdy, that is a great achievement 👏

Carmen:- Go onto BBC food and type in peaches I've just done a link for you and come up with 95 ideas - should keep you busy :rotfl:

I've just scanned down the recipes, there's a couple for jam, a peach and chilli chutney, and one for muffins.

I'm hungry, hope the cup of coffee I've just made will fill me up until teatime.

Lunch:- fruit, 2 eggs.
Dinner:- turkey, loads of vegetables, fruit salad and greek yogurt. Still got to make the fruit salad. Maybe 20gm dark chocolate - I'll see how it goes.
