    I think we are all eating more than usual with this cold weather. I went into work today and DH phoned me at 1.30pm to say there were no trains home due to no electricity on the conductor line. I monitored the train website for about an hour and left work to camp out at the station. Luckily only had a half hour wait for a delayed train so got home relatively ok.

    B - pretzel (naughty!), melon and grape pot
    L - jacket potato, lettuce, sprinkling of cheese, 2 satsumas
    D - probably pizza as we were meant to be at a 50th party which got cancelled. Pizza probably marginally better than a beige buffet?!
    S - Twix(!) boss made me cry today, so it was much needed after schlepping it in all week in the snow. It's felt like a really long week!

    Weigh in tomorrow. Will be glad of a loss of any description!
    Stay safe and warm folks!

    Due to no trains, I cannot have the weekend off from my client and am quite stressed by that. To prevent overeating , I am having a fasting day...otherwise I would bake cake and eat it.
    I might make them one tho.
    I am really disappointed as it was my only 4 day weekend :(

    Tonight I will have filled pasta and a large green salad.

    I will steel myself up for a walk in the snow....I hate the stuff....one of the reasons to come over and do this job was to avoid the snow.....

    TiredTrophy - the fun factor of the snow has definitely worn off on me now. Don't mind looking at it, but going out in it is another matter entirely. Stay safe.

    Reporting in with a 2.5lb loss this week - VERY happy with that and will put it down to the extra effort required trudging to work in the snow. Tonight we are at a gig at the O2 and eating out beforehand, then nephew's 18th meal tomorrow. Will check menus before I go.

    Have a good day all,
    Coxy

  • Morning all. We've both been ill for a couple of weeks here so healthy eating and cooking from scratch just hasn't been happening. I've been eating stodge and comfort food. Not surprising then that I've gained 0.8lbs. Hoping for better this week. Keep warm everyone, its still freezing here

    Afternoon all

    Reporting in with a STS again this week.

    It's not really surprising as haven't managed to get out of the house due to the blizzards since shopping on Monday. Really pleased we heeded the weather warnings and bought in plenty of supplies, so at least we're not going hungry and should be okay until Monday. Hopefully the worst should be over by then and the roads cleared enough to get to the shops.

    Hope you all staying safe and warm

    Hello, checking in again, finally.

    My total loss to date is 12.5 Lbs but it was 15.5 last week, I seem to have put on 3 lbs in the last week due to lack of time/finances to prep healthier meals and the snow meaning I couldn't exercise as much.

    I am confident I will meet my goal of losing (and keeping off) a stone by the end of the challenge.
