JanD's Maintenance Diary. Week 38 onwards.

JanD

maintaining since June'09
Monday 1st March.

Lost 1.8lbs this week :)

Breakie - 1 weetabix, blueberries, splenda & skimmed milk.

Lunch - 6" subway sub, meatball marinara with grated cheese, red onion & mayo. It's becoming a bit of a habit to have a cheeky lunch out on a monday (after I've been weighed ;)) ... I'm paying the price for this one though I'm feeling quite 'off' .. that'll larn me ;) xx

Edit later for rest of day. I'm not having any alcohol today though (don't faint :))

Edit - Tea - a John West sachet of tuna fillets with thai sweet red chili and stir fry.

I'll have something else later possibly mango, kiwi & vlf from frais or maybe a bar - shapers, shape or eat natural. My daughter's taking the laptop to work tonight so can't leave it till later till I know. (edit - had shapers bar)

I'm drinking fizzy water - enjoying it too even if it is making me feel a little bloated :eek: xx

I've been in and out and running around since 6.30 this morning, grabbing 'bits' when I can. Not wonderful but not toooooo bad all in all considering.
I'm about to spoil that though because my good intentions not to have a drink again tonight are about to go out of the window .... I'm knackered and feel I've earned a couple v&cs ...... any excuse ;) :p xx

Oooops ... 'not too bad' is going out the window as well - weightwatchers tortilla chips and a cheese string

ANd yet again nothing at my Mum's! - Don't tell me I'm finally breaking that habit!!! May have had more to do with the fact I knew I'd be getting weighed today. This also made me limit my breakie to 1 weetabix, blueberries etc and NOTHING else before I went to bed :):)

Weighed when I got up and had lost 1lb :):)

Then had piece of toast with egg&bacon sandwich filler on half & phili lite on the other half (coz I had to go out & didn't want to go on an empty stomach ... plus I was hungry! :))

V&Cs tonight & sure I'll have something else to eat so will edit later. xx

Tea - Morrocan chicken & chick pea tagine with lemon & coriander cous cous
 
Well done on yer loss Jan :) Yer dinner sounds yummy! :drool:
