Diet diary

[pixiecat]

on your 6lb

Keep going and think of it as a life changing mission not a diet, like you say if you look at it as a diet you think I cant have that and feel deprived of it and crave it more. Tell yourself you dont need it and you will feel better if you dont have it but it does you good now and again to have a treat, I will put a few cake recipies for you all it uses scan bran which is available from holland and barrett I dont think its too dear, I get mine from slimming world, it also helps with constipation, so I always have it in.

Keep going and think where you will be at the end and set mini achievable goals.

Lorraine, Thank you for taking the time to share your recipes with us For myself, and no doubt a fair few of us as well that are wanting/needing to lose some of the weight FM has so kindly given us, seeing the different things can still eat is a real help as they show that healthier eating isn't just about a bit of lettuce and feeling hungry all the time

Lisa, 1st week, 6lb..........................................

Animalhouse, we all need a treat so don't be hard on yourself about the creme egg. The veggie and bacon soup will ave added it's influence as well, so it will have only been a slight slip, which happen to all of us at some point.

I'm getting all as well, I was going to wait after OH's half century in a couple of weeks time, but now I'm feeling a lot more inspired again. I'll have a look thru my recipes and things as there are some low fat versions of takeaway type dishes and family favourites and treaties as well, and add them to what will hopefully become a good collection of recipes for us

hi all,

yesterday got up at 10 first time all week as we were going to go to the cinema for 11.10 so i wouldn't fall asleep through it., then realised ITS WEDNESDAY - MASSAGE DAY. my brain has been so fuzzled with fatigue all week so oh nipped me there for an hour then went straight on to cinema after.

so all day had banana, popcorn (large bag minstrels ), 1/2 regular meat feast pizza, then was so full that didn;'t eat anything else rest of day.

today am starting wiht couple rice crackers with small choc spread, handful of dates, oj and coffee. have also done some exercise onwii. i go between totally commatosed and then any bit of energy feelign i should exercise i am so up/down. put some washing on so will have to hang that later but most awake i have felt all day so glad fatigue slipped. having rest then wil ltry some more exercise.

take care adn keep it up everyone.

mason,

love the idea of scones adn curry - we are all big curry fans in our house.thanks.

has anyone watched gok wan cooking oh made his egg fried rice last night will add to list.

lisa hope you doing ok,

i was good yesterday had a couple more crackers and an apple, then had teh egg fried rice with chciken and prawns for dinner followed by only 4 pieces of dairy milk whilst doing kids choc cake with melted choc that my daughter had made.

will try and be good today and do some exercise again. dd1 took her all day to hang her washing on radiators i had put on specially but i didn't crumble after she has gone 3 months to do it before she goes back to college to start her a levels - if she lives that long.

she was gonna go on cycle ride til i infored her its chucking it down her - shutup mummmmmmmmmmmmmmm. anywya didnt see how that meant she could hang her own washing up .

[animalhouse]

you have been doing so well to keep going so long lisa.

i realised i have been managing really bad last week as everytime had one good day and did hydro or exercise kept takeing me 2 days to recover so have been zonked out all week.

today had hydro again so just did half the number of exercises so it doesn't completely knock me out this week.

have still been eating the rice crackers with little bit of choc or peanut butter for choc fix so done reallly weoll. got some cheap apples/veg at morrisions at end of day so been having an apple everytime so had 2/3 applies a day and crackers for breaky/lunch then meal in evening.

egg fried rice with not too much oil can be healthy with jsut a few veg, bit of chick/meat and egg for protein. change from salad.

try not to snack in between meals think that can be downfall and fill up on proteins so yoghurts, peanut butter and apple, nuts in moderation.

Well done on another great weight loss, I know what you mean about the price of the "healthy" stuff, I will see what I
have that is budgety you will have to let me know what you like, I and OH only like plain stuff so currys are out

Asda have pork mince very lean 700g for £3.50 you can make burgers, stew, or with a little fennell and parsley make sausages and cook in the oven.

have been living on my

crackers & apple for breaky, 11's, lunch (gluten free rice crackers) with either choc spread/peanut butter adn wednesday was veggie rice and yesterday salad with a couple of small slices of pizza. they are only 25 cal each so hope the spread not too bad.

resisted macd pancakes today but just had a cappuccino and had a small mouthfull of choc m&ms this afternoon as they were already in mouth before i realised what i had done.

hope you doing ok lisa.

weighed myself yesterday and i either go up or down a pound but never lose any weight its so depressing but at least its not goign up.

take care.

we don;t have fizzy stuff only nas squash or my trouble is cups of tea with my lacto free milk.

must try and drink more squash/water thoough as might have 4/5 cups of tea a day and a couple of glasses of squash.

we had rice and veg again for dinner (then a piece of apple pie/custard).

my sweet tooth is my downfall.

don;t really crave anything savoury. will keep an eye of my cracker and toppings trying to get up off settee and move around a bit more.
