 0.5 on
Half pound added. So sad but still working on it.  

Had rest of apples and blueberries this morning for breakfast. Lunch is HM leek and potato soup, cooking as I type should be ready soon.  Not sure about dinner. Have 2 more beets to use up so those plus burgers plus salad.
Have been playing around but cannot change font colour. Frustrating.

Evening All
Well not long in dd wanted to go and meet some friends at the shopping centre so I went with her then made my self scarce once her friends turned up, her birthday is next month so managed to get a couple of it for her and bits for her cake, blimey though had to really fight the wind and rain, it was ferocious, was certainly glad to get in, I'm sure I must have done extra steps as it was one step forward, blown 2 steps back  
Sorry you are felling down Blue Doggy, but well done on resisting the cheap chocs x
Cranky, sorry to hear about your knee it's a right pain, I limped around the shops today, going down the steps was the most awkward part I think and at one point it just gave way, thankfully I didn't fall. It better be okay by Monday though as I'm on my feet all day at work, anyway hope yours is better soon xx
Sillyvixen, hope you are feeling better soon x
 Well today's meal
B 2 slice of toast with a mashed banana
L pear and 2 mini rice cakes, coffee
D beef stroganoff and pasta, feta
shall probably have a biscuit later with my tea.
exercise has gone out the window at the moment with my dodgy knee so I'm trying to be extra careful with my food. Tomorrow we are having tandoori chicken so off to marinade my chicken now!

Hello hope you all doing ok with the storm x
Molly doggy decided to go out at 2.30 this morning. Now she is very old and fragile so I had to go out and rescue her then had to wake DH to come and rescue me! Oh no!
Anyhow I'm feeling pleased as have got into some smaller clothes so has given me a boost.
Have a good day x

Well done everyone 👏 Procrastinator we all have our bad weeks a half lb is manageable to lose this week 🙂. I miss seeing my thanks which would tell me I had updated you, as usual shout if I've missed anyone, unless you're happy I have 😏

 I was unable to update last night due to a clingy cat, he didn't like the noise of the storm and perched on my chest (it's big enough with a arm for balance 😳 )  difficult to do anything other than peer over the top of his head even read, so it was TV through the ears 🙀 and a lot more comfortable for him than me   other than flicking lights I avoided the power cut which affected 300 houses around me, the houses behind me were in darkness for over three hours 

Molly be careful  it's always good when we can get into smaller clothes 👏 an incentive to keep trying 

Hope all those with dodgy knees are walking better, I've found that going downstairs with a bad knee is worst than going up or just walking.  

The weather yesterday was a good excuse to stay in and I've no plans to go out today.  I prepared vegetables to make soup later for lunches and I've a pork chop defrosting to roast for dinner, other than that I'll potter around home I should do some decuttering but that may stay just a thought   not sure what lunch will be maybe eggs

Nice surprise this morning, I decided to measure myself and found that I've lost an inch off my waist and hips since I last measured at the beginning of January.

WEIGHING IN DAY

Good evening everyone   
I hope everyone is safe after the excesses of Denis . Most of the day was quiet here and not raining, but it seems to be livening up a bit now.

Molly well done on being able to wear your smaller clothes 👏 what a great feeling! How brave to take Molly-doggy out in the night, especially such a stormy one! Stay safe!

Brambling you were very lucky not to lose your electricity. It’s nice to have comforting cuddles in a storm, never mind who cuddles whom 😸🐾🐾  The chart is looking good  thank you.

Sue14 well done on your lost inches, that’s excellent 👏

<font color=“red”> loss of 1 lb </font>

 I’m reporting a loss of 1 lb today slow but steady.
I tried to put the loss in red, but it didn’t work. Must be doing something wrong, but I don’t know what.

Eaten today:
B - porridge, satsuma 
D - lamb leg steak, mixed veg (both from Df2 ); yogurt with rhubarb 
T - poached eggs with mixed leaves & chopped apple; skyr with cinnamon 
S - none

well done Blue Doggy  you're half way there 😁

Bfh

Well done bluedoggy and molly and sue14. Glad you’re feeling better bluedoggy, and I hope all the poorly knees are a lot less painful today; I agree, brambling, that going downstairs is so much worse than going up when you’ve “got a knee”!
procrastinator don’t worry about the gain, I’m sure it’ll soon be gone again.
I was absolutely horrendous over the weekend; far too much food and drink - may need to postpone weigh in by a couple of days this week 
However, I am about to shift myself off of the naughty step and go to the gym!
Plan for today -
B - poached eggs and bacon
L - halloumi, salad/fruit
D - probably a mini roast but may leave the spuds of mine and replace with roasted cauliflower 
S - protein bar or fruit

Have a good day all

ETA - will need to change clothes first as I’ve noticed I’ve dripped egg down my gym top .
