Morning everyone.


So mhe, is this fruit bread a product of your MIL's BM? I know they're not everyones cup of tea but I'd be lost without mine. Love it. one at the

LOL - how did you guess. First 2 loaves came out teribble - then i found lid wasnt on properly since then its been fine.
NOw heres my problem - before BM i used to nip to asda at 8pm and buy tons of whoops bread - my freezer is full of the stuff and now DH is getting into this BM stuff so i seem to have a bread mountain in my house. What am i going to do with it all - how long does it last when frozen? DH and DS want MRSMs tortillas again this Saturday and I let DS 1 make his own pizza tonight whilst DS2 was at a party. Now he wants to make his own pizza.

Id buy the JAmes MArtin book - not for the recipes - just to look at him on the front cover!! Ibet he'd love me when ive shifted this 3 stone!!:rotfl: :rotfl:

Morning all

soooo how is everyone this lovely morning? tickity boo I hope

Got to go for a wander later -we need to pick up the car as hubby had drinks for a couple of folks leaving yesterday, so left meggymoo on camp (yes the car has a name:o )..so a poddle down to fetch her will burn a few cals

Made the tortillas for dinner again last night -they are very nice with a tbs of poppy seeds in the mix mmmmmm next time im doing sesame seeds I froze 4 of them as balls of dough -so will see how they turn out when i cook them later in the week.

meals today:-

1. brekkie - yoghurt and a grapefruit
2. lunch- hm toast and poached egg -have some organic eggs so hoping for a "nom nom nom" moment
3. dinner - i can feel a ham salad coming on -with steamed potatoes
4. and yes..snackies will be fruit and yoghurts:D

think i will get some of those custards made today...have a couple of nanas left -so will shove one in the bottom...will report back how well they work:D

Hi caterina.. sorry about your news...mind at least now you know what you are dealing with!!!!
I have a problem with the fluid in my spine and around my brain, and am hoping that once i get down to within my healthy weight range i may be able to try and control it ...

Well done on the loss lil_me :T , i used to use the sweetener by silver spoon one called "nothing comes closer to sugar" and no-one ever noticed the difference, mind i use that little i have gone back to sugar in a bid to reduce the "replacements" to a minimum...

Chloebelle
The walking is addictive isn't it -who'd have thought it :rotfl: I get quite tetchy if i don't get out for a walk:p . Fingers crossed for Monday for you...

Taplady
:eek: "NO CAKE?" ecky thump..i am in awe ..well done :T . Hope work passes quickly for you.

Belindabear... im the opposite now... the 1st time i was genuinly hungry -it was quite a shock not a feeling my body was used to :rotfl: ..... now i don't let myself get starving, but its lovely to sit down to a meal thinking "mmmm im ready for this" rather than just shoving it down my neck
What a lovely treat -a good old pamper session:T

Mhe... james Martin is rather "nice" isn't he and heck does he know how to cook proper food.... have you seen how much butter, cream etc that man can use :rotfl: .... I like Bill Grainger... he is as cute as a button:p

Chardonnay - well done on the loss :T ..i have just gone to "obese" from very obese :rotfl: ...... must check how much i need to lose to be plain old "fat"

Morning frogga, newlywed, marie, bigmumma, cherfulness and the many more i have missed hope you have a lovely weekend

Right i had better get on and get my brekkie.. have a great day everyone and keep up the good work

Morning all.

Well done to all the losers, including Chardonnay and any others I've missed over the week.

Got on scales this morning and I've lost 1 lb so that's a relief. I thought I might have actually put on this week because I've been having quite a few carbs :rolleyes: although I'd didn't think I'd overeaten, which I obviously hadn't.

I'm now in my 'danger zone' where I usually lose the plot so I'm going to steel myself until I get to the 19 1/2 stone, where hopefully I will feel safer. :rolleyes:
So that now leaves me 1 1/2 lb to lose by next week to reach my target for the end of Froggas Feb challenge. Completely do-able if I stay determined.

Can hardly see screen as the cold has gone to my eyes and they're watering, so I'll get down to the basics.

Food today:
Weetabix
Roast chicken, roast veg and steamed cabbage & carrots, gravy
Not sure how hungry I'll be after the roast so maybe crackers & roule cheese.

Snacks - Fruit and dried apricots. There may be a slice of choc cake.

DH is making his fabulous Bero Milk Chocolate cake today... :eek: May need that once I've taken mum for her opticians appointment.. remembering last years. :cool:

Take care all and all the best for your weigh in Rockie.

Morning MrsM and Tappy :hello: et al

Bit of a ucky overcast morning at the mo, certanly not going to be as nice as last weekend :rolleyes:

Wanted, ney needed "something" last night but through boredom rather than hunger. Had 1/2 packet of mixed fruit and nuts which gave me a bit of a belly ache. They weren't very nice really so wish I hadn't bothered. However I was very close to getting toast and jam , and that would have then go on and on and I would no doubt have been eating all night so I'm really please I stopped :T

Think I'll be OK today as I could have binged last night and never got the enthusiasm back for this weekend. Cna't give up now it's only 1 week til WD

Hope you all have a good weekend. Might do a big clean up , although TBH it doesn't need it. I just think I'll need to keep myself busy this weekend IYKWIM

See ya xxxxxxxxxx

P.S MrsM ~ hope you got my PM back, if went all funny with lots of odd bits in it Let me know and I'll type it again :rolleyes:

B- Toast and banana
L cheese on toast
D Chinese!

Yesterdays steps 10361:A
Have a grand weekend xx

Hi saversarn

Chinese mmmmmmmm

chicken n sweetcorn soups a good start

A lot of chinese food is really good on the fat/cals...
as long as you avoid the deep fried sweet n sour, prawn toasts etc you should be fine...
And obviously picking a prawn or chicken option will make it even "safer"
at least there isn't much temptation on the pudding front deep fried pineapple/banana eughhhhhh

Most of all go out and enjoy every mouthfull ....not forgetting that chopsticks take longer to use -so you will have time to register you are full before you get to the "stufed" stage :T , have a great evening

Well, no loss whatever to report - and I'm avoiding scales for a few days now as all my motivation seems to have evaporated. It's only the fact that there really is nothing to snack on (DH has my car and I can't face the 2 miles to the shops!) has stopped me stuffing my face nonstop today. Don't know why, not even really hungry, but just want to eat. Hope you are all doing ok.
