    An unexpected friend here for lunch which put paid to all good intentions yesterday. Hopefully today will be better.

    Raining so I'll stay indoors this morning and do some admin before it gets too far behind. I need to collect the eggs from my hens this afternoon and if it's dry I'll spend half an hour on the veg plot.

    I'm going to order a cheap step meter again, the last one didn't work after it fell in a puddle.:D

    L:- a couple of boiled eggs, lettuce, toms, peppers and any other salad type of veg I can find in the fridge, plus fruit
    D:- the cooked turkey from yesterday with veg, sugarfree jelly, yogurt and blueberries
    Maybe a couple of cup-a-soup if I'm hungry or cold.

    I've had an up and down week food wise, good intentions, but not always stuck to them.
    Managed to scrape by with a small loss -1lb

    I've not posted for ages because I keep gaining and losing the same 3lbs. I have 10lbs left until my goal which shouldn't really take very long but I just need to get my bum into gear!!

    :( please can you record a +1 for me this week Knitwitch. I've been snacking on all the wrong things. Could put it down to TOTM, but ultimately it's me putting the wrong things in my gob!
    Must try harder next week.

    At last- an actual loss! 1lb off for me this week please Knitwitch. I would like to say it's due to virtuous behaviour (and no chocolate) but it's not. I did manage all fruit Thursday more or less properly, apart from a bowl of crunchy nut cornflakes. I didn't go to work early so I didn't have any fried bread (good girl) I even turned down the offer of fish and chips in the evening (even gooder girl!)
    However, the stress levels this week have been the real reason behind any weight loss, methinks. We're halfway through a house completion for one of the kids, so I'm running about helping with that; in-laws have had a problem with officialdom, snotty letter written for that for them (and results coming in very quickly!), other issues with my family that have been on-going for years and I'm close to saying 's*d it, don't ask me to do anything ever again' and it's snowing!! (Ok, the last one is no excuse cos I love the snow but still?) Oh and I forgot, my major !!!!-up with a cash dispenser, tho that's ok now, though I spent a few days worrying about that.
    Anyway, 1lb off, not to be sniffed at, let's see how the week ahead goes.

    Happy Saturday everyone x
  • Its an STS for me this week. I'm feeling stressed this morning as its DGD3's christening this afternoon and its snowing again!!
    The foecast is for snow on and off today. Fingers crossed that they're wrong.
