    +2lb for me.

    Time to start weighing my portions I think and not eating for 2 time zones.

    Today’s menu was/is

    Instant Bircher muesli with strawberries blueberries coconut yogurt and too much peanut butter. Milky coffee.

    Boiled eggx2, butter lettuce, peanut chilli sauce and grated cheddar. Milky tea

    Probably a milky tea and gluten free almond slice.

    Tuna steak, peas and new potatoes.

    1x Chocolate truffle
    Probably a g&t, hopefully no crisps.

    Have a good weekend.

    Evening All,

    Managed a reasonable walk yesterday in between the heavy showers; the fish shop came up trumps, I got a couple of herring fillets (gave one to a friend cause she loves them too) and picked up a haddock fillet as well. The herring was lovely and fresh, coated it in oatmeal and fried in a oil/butter mix and had it with some of my home grown potatoes and peas - oh so delicious.

    Its been raining off and on most of today so I'll get out for an extra long walk tomorrow. Used up the last of the hummus, with grapes & crispbread for breakfast. L = watermelon salad and pepperoni and for dinner I had the haddock in breadcrumbs, sauteed the l/o potatoes, sides were some peas and a blob of tartare sauce - feeling well full and loved my fishy weekend.

    Got a basic menu plan drawn up and its back to using freezer stock tomorrow.
    Jan - June Grocery spends = £531.61

    I'm just behind you Frith :rotfl:

    Wasn't much needed on my shopping trip today, mostly staples as I'm trying to use up what's in the fridge & freezer. I still have half a watermelon to use up so it will feature repeatedly this week.

    Todays meal plan
    B - scrambled eggs on dry toast
    L - watermelon & feta salad
    D - chicken & mushroom lasagne, raw shredded cabbage & carrot
    Still snacking on oranges/grapefruit/pears

    This is getting embarrassing! But there are no more mini daim bars in the house and I'm not going to IKEA for a while :D

    Morning everyone,
    Hope you all had a good weekend.
    We had a lovely time visit family. Good parkrun on Saturday morning.
    We had some nice treats over the weekend. Had a nice walk yesterday afternoon.
    Today’s weigh in shows just a 0.25 lb loss so I think we’ll call that a STS!

    The next few weekends we have quite a lot going on event wise so I need to make sure I keep on the straight and narrow during the week and hopefully keep the running up.

    Hope you all have a great week.

    Only a loss of half a pound for me this week despite a huge effort.
    Still, it is better than last weeks big fat nothing, I suppose.
