You're going great guns... I trust your bugs have subsided enabling you to do this exercise! Today is the first day I could walk fast without coughing (too much!)!
Consolidation CONSO COMPLETED, DIARY CLOSED

Feeling much better, Jo, thanks - glad you are too. Still coughing a bit, but no longer hurts and nose almost clear.
And more exercise, tidied the pigsty, just need to sort out youngest's bedroom (not cleaned but decorating going on so no point) and did an hour on the exercise bike. It's raining, so no walk today (unless it clears up). Need to bake cakes this afternoon anyway for school bingo (big yawn - the bingo not the baking) this weekend.

Glad you're finally feeling better, Laura.
The soup sounds very tempting! I could just manage a bowl of it right now.

Boring day today, need to go food shopping. Will have a stint on the exercise bike first though (not right now, it's not 7 am yet and I am NOT a morning person).
Conso PV with gala
B - Dukan porridge, orange
L - gala - fish soup, quiche and salad, baked apples with dried fruit and (maybe) custard
S - bread and cheese
D - omelette, green salad, fromage blanc

Give me a crunchy raw apple any day 
Raining here too... in fact, it's so mild it's ridiculous! I heard that there may be WARMTH records for January beaten later in the week in the South of France...

Morning!
Not a great start for motivation, have woken up bloated. Don't think there will be much movement on the scales tomorrow (at least not in the direction I want).
Plan of action, exercise, water and strict PP day - no tolerated items or salt :sigh: (looking forward to tomorrow already).
B - porridge
L - chicken, fromage blanc
S - hardboiled egg white
D - fish, fromage blanc
At least 2 litres of water (have filled a jug and will empty it) and 2 x 30 minutes on exercise bike plus walk.
Hope everyone has a good day!

Good Morning Laura,
after the strict week you've been having I can't see the scales moving in the wrong direction! Believe in yourself I'm sure it will be okay! Hmm your menu looks nearly as excitig as mine though I have not yet gone as far as egg white for a snack! I have however bought a carton of pasteurised egg whites as an experiment. They are free-range and do cost less than free range eggs (but not cheapie barn eggs) and I may get used ot the conveninence. I may have to freeze some of it though a container has 15 egg whites and needs to be used in a week...
Have a good day and fingers crossed for tomorrow!

Crikey Robin! That really is a Stabilisation PP you're having today! Good luck with it... (and hope you're not "blinded by the white"...).
I tried making up the powdered egg whites for a while, Anja, feeling bad about throwing egg yolks away, but they turned out dearer than my eggs from the farm in the country!
I've definitely cut down on my egg consumption this time... although it's still way over Mrs. Normal's (whoever she may be)...

Morning!
Still bloated, but at least the scales were nice to me this morning - 600gr down from last week. Am never doing another PP like yesterday though, was soul-destroying so I'll have to try something else.
Exercise today - 30 minutes exercise bike, walk and cleaning the house.
Today PV conso + carbs (friends coming for dinner)
B - porridge and (yippee) an apple
L - smoked salmon, fish in white sauce, spinach
D - roast lamb (allowed on conso), green beans, peas (carbs), bread and cheese and more fruit (to make up the carbs)
Hope everyone's OK. No time for diaries again, sorry.

I bet your food will taste wonderful today after that PP... Well done on your loss, and I can well imagine that your day was a real trial with that sort of a PP - the very sort he recommends for life on a Thursday (hum!)
