I usually don't think I have a sweet tooth! But then look again. Am having my porridge this morning with oats, chia seeds, and watery milk. It's edible! Might add cinnamon tomorrow, but really do I need raisins, do I need honey? Am back to late breakfast, don't want to call it intermittent fasting, as dinner is usually around 8. Just a nice long break from munching. Am kicking white carbs again, weird how quickly things creep back in, but brown bread w peanut butter and banana, basically a load of carb.
Anyhow. Have a lovely day out there.Isa help to buy: 1000/3000 33%

Hello All
Popping in with a gain over the last 2 weeks of +2lb it's been a bad couple of weeks altogether, my dd's poor cat who was supposed to have some teeth removed last Monday, took a turn for the worse last week and we had to have her put to sleep last Friday, my poor dd is heartbroken she loved her cat so much and had her since she was 8, it's her birthday next week and it will all be very subdued without her cat. We are keeping an eye on my sons cat (her sister) who seems okay at the moment, I never considered my self a cat person, but I'm so surprised at the gigantic hole such a tiny fluff ball has left behind.
So, anyhow it's not been a super week food wise, but I am trying to move forwards now, although there will be cake next week.Today
B 2 plums
L jacket pot and salad
D chicken and roasted butternut squash risotto, I have some low fat blueberry muffins in the oven, so will see how the turn out, will have one later with my cuppa.

Apologies for my absence, I've been ill with gastritis. On the plus side I lost 4lbs, but it was a painful way to lose weight! Well done everyone on your losses this past month.

Sorry to hear about your DDs cat SIRENS the little fur balls have a habit of worming their way into our hearts and leave a big hole when they go
