ScienceGeek Report post Posted February 28, 2008 Just got back from a really nice meal out with gfs family. I had smoked salmon for starter, steak with potatoes and salad for main course, orange sorbet for pudding and a couple of glasses of wine. The only things out of those that I had to point was the wine and the sorbet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathryn Report post Posted February 29, 2008 But, at least I stopped myself from eating the spedial chocs I've bought for my mum for Sunday (for now...) Go on go on, you know you want to... Last night I ate a whole big Mars bar I found on top of the fridge. That was before dinner too. I then told ds there was nothing exciting for pudding - he had to make do with a very healthy frozen orange lolly.. K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss Report post Posted February 29, 2008 Go Bid I'd never realised you could fry a cheese sandwich....DH would love that Kathryn, I've got a stack of Easter Eggs on top of my fridge Eldest DD (10 AS) spotted them the other day, and asked if I'd stolen them from the Easter Bunny At what age do you break the bad news? All ok here diet wise today. Had my usual cuppa tea, with no sugar, skimmed milk and porridge, made with sweetner and skimmed milk for brekkie. Will be having a chicken salad, with a fat free dressing for lunch, and probably have abit of melon and some grapes afterwards. Been going on my cross trainer early, as soon as the kids leave for school, and I'm finding that is working better for me. If I put it off for later in the day, I never bother. For tea I'll be having a WW curry, WW pud and some WW sweeties for a treat (chocolate and caramel ones...yum) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forbsay Report post Posted February 29, 2008 (edited) mmmmmmm that cheese sandwich sounds lovely. Well done Baggy and Hev (hope the carrott cake was lovely) I haven't bought my mum any chocs for Sunday - i would just stuff my face with them. Not sure what i am having for tea but I will be having some wine as it is Friday and the start of the weekend. Had a bottle of wine in my fridge for the past 2 weeks - that is unheard of in the Forbsay household. Hope you meeting went ok SG Edited February 29, 2008 by forbsay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathryn Report post Posted March 1, 2008 But how long had it been there?! Boho About a week. I forgot it was there. Funny thing is, I don't really like Mars bar all that much. It's OK though cos I gobbled it down really quick, so my body didn't have time to register the calories. Kathryn, I've got a stack of Easter Eggs on top of my fridge Eldest DD (10 AS) spotted them the other day, and asked if I'd stolen them from the Easter Bunny At what age do you break the bad news? What bad news??! What are you saying?! You'll be telling me the tooth fairy isn't real next. K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oxgirl Report post Posted March 3, 2008 I have gone off the rails today ............ again. It's always the same. I deny myself everything and then, one taste, and BAM, it's all over, I stuff and stuff and just can't stop. Had two packets of baked crisps today and a big bit of cake and then Jay bought home some chocolate refrigerator cake he'd made, just made of pig of myself whilst cutting that up! I'll have to restrict myself for a whole week now just to not put on any weight and I STILL won't lose any. I'm fed up ........... literally. Feel like I'm locked in battle with my body. ~ Mel ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss Report post Posted March 3, 2008 Mel, could you not allow yourself some treats, and just run abit more? I've a friend who can now eat pretty much what she likes, within reason, so long as she follows a certain exercise regime through out the week, and it keeps her weight stable. Just an idea, with you being so into running Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've a friend who can now eat pretty much what she likes, within reason, so long as she follows a certain exercise regime through out the week, and it keeps her weight stable. Just an idea, with you being so into running I increased my running, yep, I ran nearly every day last week and I was so good with my eating, everything v. low fat, no 'bad' stuff and didn't lose a dickie bird. Seems like the minute I eat a couple of biscuits I put ON though, I'm feeling very cheated. Don't seem to be able to stop at one treat though, once I have one, I go mad so it feels better to have none at all. I don't miss them when I'm not having them but as soon as I have one, it's like, ah yeah, I remember how much I like this stuff ............ stuff, stuff, STUFF!!
