    Morning everyone.

    Well done losers, especially Poohsticks! Oh and thanks for the scales recommendation, I got them yesterday. They seem fine and ,more to the point, weigh me the same as last week on my old ones. I was almost frightened to get on in case they added a few lbs!

    Enjoy your Primani trip Bubbs - come back and show us what you got. I'm in the process of altering what I can from last years summer/holiday clothes. I'm loathe to spend more money on things I wear for about 4 weeks in the year.

    Todays menu
    B Boiled eggs and crispbreads
    L Cottage cheese salad
    D sausage mash and veg - eaten a lot of salad lately and I'm craving cooked green veg!! That's something I never thought I'd say...

    Have a good Sunday all.

    Morning all.

    Can report -1lb

    I expected to put on as I enjoyed a Eurovision party on my own last night and enjoyed a few glasses of fizz, chocolate eclairs and a bag of crisps!

    But I have tried to be good all week and I've decided that since I've limited my bread intake it has helped.

    Morning all

    Well WI saw a STS which I was pleased with given what i ate and drank last weekend.

    But the best news was that I went out last night in a 16 skirt which was loose as well so well chuffed with that. Was realtively good - drank loads of water instead of wine so no hang over either.

    Think I'll try P00sticks diet this week - would love to see my consultants face if I lost that lol.

    Going to be domestic today as it's lovely here but will either go for a long walk with Dog later or go cycling

    Very tentative -0.5 lb for me.... which would be my first loss in about 6 weeks! Need something to kickstart the last few remaining pounds... I've upped my speed and doing more exercise so not sure why I'm not losing. Maybe I just need to accept that this is my body's happy weight... Although I have had a very stressful month for various reasons and I think my body tends to hold onto fat at times of stress... Unfortunately life isn't going to get any less stressful until at least the middle of June at the earliest!

    Morning all, hope everyone is well.



    Well done to those with losses or STS's.

    Glad you like the scales esmy


    Can I thank whoever it was on this board (I think) - sorry, I don't remember who - who recommended the book 'Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine'. I've just finished reading it and really enjoyed it - it's very thought provoking.



    Plan for today:


    B: overnight oats: 40g grape nuts (HEXB), raspberry & cranberry muller light, mixed summer fruits
    L: stuffed mushrooms (HEXA cheese, onion, small slice wholelemeal bread)
    D: HM burgers, sweet potato jackets and some sort of veg (courgette, sweetcorn, mushrooms and/or red pepper )



    Snacks: easy peelers, banana
    Syns: 4.5 for bread.

    I do but I don't sweeten them - they go with sweet or savoury.
    40g oats, 2 eggs (though I'm going to try the next batch with 1) 3 tbsp plain yoghurt. Whizz up together. I let it stand a bit if I can wait so the oats soak up the liquid, then fry in frylight. I've had them with berries and yoghurt and with bacon and egg. The original recipe adds a bit of sweetener and vanilla essence.
