Evening ladies, hope you all have had a good day. For me its been another day of assignment writing, soooo boring and hard to stop snacking but 2 down only one more to go, my Easter break isn't too exciting though as both my girls are supposed to be revising for GCSE's and A levels so don't want to do anything that may distract them. Having said that a day shopping is on the cards for tomorrow

Lunch: mahoosive salad with lettuce, tomato, cuc, red onion, celery, peppers, sweetcorn and FF vinegarette dressing with a chicken sandwich

Had a sneaky look on the scales as its a week since I started back on the plan although my official weigh in day is going to be at class on Tuesday, and I've only lost 2 pounds since last Saturday, bit disappointed at this, I usually loose about 4 in my first week . Not going to give up though. Aching all over today after my marathon in the garden.

Breakfast: red onion omelette with a smidgen of cheese (1)

Lunch will be a sandwich and fish pie for tea

Hope everyone has a good Saturday x

Its so hard staying off the scales isn't it ...and two pounds is great, though I know what you mean about always hoping for more in the first week. I'm weighing on weds so let's hope we both do well x

 

[Jackie65]

Not had chance to get on here the last couple of days food has been ok but weight doesn't seem to be shifting, think I'm eating too much even though its free food I'm picking all day and I'm not as active as normal while I'm off work....weigh in tonight :sigh:
