Hi Donnie46,

I came and found you. This is all looking good. I find that red days help me loose more, but I love both and throw in the odd EE now and again.

 

[Donnie46]

I have enjoyed my weekend of red day's and shall have more now that I have taken the plunge, still have'nt attempted an EE day yet though, but I intend to, thank you for finding me, I appreciate it, X

This is a 'treat' day in my head as it is WI day and I can indulge in something different - but I keep going over and over my menu and it seems OK to me, and yet I seem to be having a lot of food today.

If anyone looks in and they have a minute to check it, can they confirm that it is all legal and within my Green day choices, thank you.

 

[henna!]

well done to you! all looks fine to me but do you not get hungry just having fruit and yogurt for lunch i would be starving! but i suppose you are having a big breakfast.

 

[Donnie46]

I had a big (late) breakfast and as I am having chips and burgers for dinner I didn't want to over eat at lunch, I just wanted the room to get my teeth around my dinner, LOL......Thank you Henna X

 

[JoJosing]

Wowwe 2 lb is really good going stick with it donnie!

 

[Donnie46]

Hi Donnie

Your menus look fab - I seem to be eating loads more than you - I am following to the letter but am eating about 5 pieces of fruit a day - 2 are often satsumas and loads salad as well - my councellor said to have as much as allowed to start with as otherwise there will be nothing to cut back on if the weight loss slows - I do feel like I am eating too much although I am eating till I feel full and then not eating again until I feel hungry again - well done you though on your loss - I don't have the willpower to go it alone I'm afraid - keep up the good work
