    Well done Sarah :T first on the board as well :)

    Glad you had a better day procrastinator dementia reaches a stage when it hits love ones more than the sufferer, she's obviously is aware that your someone important to her.

    IT issues at work meant we were sent home lunch time to work (we could work from our own internet's just not via the office server). Driving home I got to see the peacocks which reside a couple of minutes from me there were six, four blue and two white taking their time crossing the road, beautiful but with no road sense :).

    I found myself system testing this afternoon eating my way through a half pack of pistachios left from Christmas, it's amazing how you can sit and stuff your face without much awareness :cool: I haven't planned on eating them all and needed a couple glasses of water to recover from the salt

    B - porridge and berries
    L - repeat of yesterday stuff pepper and mushroom
    D - chicken, and vegetables in a tomato sauce with pasta
    S - half a pack of pistachios

  • Hi everyone, sorry I haven't been in the thread for a bit, I have had a busy couple of days, but hope to be around more tomorrow.

    I weighed in yesterday morning so I have my first starting point. Of course I had gained over the Christmas break, but am determined to get back down to losing regularly again.

    Hugs to those who need it, it is a tough time of year for many.

    Please bear with me... I'd like to start next Monday in earnest. This week I've started a new job (freelance so nothing like I've done before), doing a bit of an old job and my son has moved out! I need a bit of time to go through the Blood Sugar Diet recipes and make some for the freezer, to get in the mindset and - to set up the Wii and weigh myself!

    Thank you for all the good wishes and support; it does make all the difference between throwing in the towel and trying again (and again!) :)
    I’ve somehow manage to shed -1lb since last week. I don’t know how but I’ll take it.
    Wishing you all a good day today :)

    Hello x
    I weighed in today and have lost 2lbso good start. Well done to those that have lost and positive thoughts to those having a hard time x
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    Thanks

    In what context? If it's something I've typed it could be fat fingers on a tablet :)

    Morning all,

    Had a bit of a wobble on Monday afternoon and yesterday went completely the wrong way. Anyway today is a new day and I'm getting my head back in the right frame of mind.

    Despite the last couple of days I've managed to lose 1lb, not much but it's a small step in the right direction.

    Hope you all have a great Wednesday.

    Hi all, my first weigh day is tomorrow. Don't hold your breath - I'm only just starting to feel human again after Christmas gave me a cold. I'm still not great with choosing/cooking healthy food and have been tending to cook and eat whatever is easy.

    take care all of you :)
  • Duhhhhhh

    Silly me. Obvious if you think about it. Must be losing brain cells instead of weight !:rotfl:

    Thank You Cranky
