Today has been good so far. Made scan bran cake inspired off another diary. Used 5 scanbran, fromage frais, 2 eggs anda scoop of choc protein powder (5 syns) had half for breakfast and other was my mid morning snack

For lunch had butternut squash, spinich, 2 babybell lights, apple and banana.

Having salad with beans and lentils for tea

When you have butternut squash with the spinach how do you cook it? How's you?x

 

[g_2012]

I'm good thanks Gemma. Really hoping I can get as slim as you this time! Already addicted to quorn burgers again haha.

Well the butternut squash was left over from the previous evening. So I cut it into chunks the cooked in the oven (sprinkled with paprika). So for lunch the next day I just put the remaining cooked bns in a lunchbox with loads of fresh spinich leaves and put in the microwave at lunch time. The spinich quickly cooked and the bns just warmed up x

That makes two of us!!haha I keep looking at my bikini snaps and feel like crying! They are spurring me on to be 100% the next few weeks. I'm living at home on my own the next few weeks so I'm trying to think of some cheap meals I can have!x

 

[g_2012]

Least you have some bikini snaps to inspire you mine are hidden, never to be seen again haha.

Will have a think of some ideas for you for cheap meals x

 

[gemma1985]

haha I don't mind my snaps I worked bloody hard for that purpose! I've got plenty in for green days, I just wanted to try and do some red but meat and fish are so expensive! so looks like green days for me the next week or so. Need some new clothes for hol as well as saving my spends and I have a lot on so food is taking a backseat finance wise...x

 

[g_2012]

Yes green days are much cheaper if I ever get to target I'd also keep loads of snaps to remind me of all the hard work. You have done so well! X

 

[g_2012]

I'm still here just not getting chance to post much atm. Still on track although have a busy weekend planned for my birthday with lots of naughty food. Plan to get straight back on track on Monday though

 

[gemma1985]

Ooooo when is it your birthday Gill? Got anything nice planned?x

 

[g_2012]

On Saturday have a lovely day with my sister planned going to a nice leisure/spa place then baking cakes in the afternoon as its my brothers birthday next week and he loves cake!

Then sunday going go the cinema and frankie and bennys on sunday with my family for joint birthday meal. Really looking forward to it xx

 

[gemma1985]

Ahhh sounds lovely! I'm really close to my sister but we don't get much quality time as she has two kids and another on the way... You want to book yourself a nice treatment and massage and spoil yourself for your birthday, as if us women need an excuse......

 

[g_2012]

Haha yes that does sound good. My sister bought me an elemis face mask so may put that on before going in the sauna or steam room

Are you looking forward to your holiday? X

 

[kirsty_baird_26]

Have a fab birthday xx

 

[g_2012]

Thank you hun x

 

[gemma1985]

Yeah I'm looking forward to it, been looking at booking some VIP tables this morning and looking at the amazing restaurants and clubs, got me all in the mood! I'm really not happy with my weight though and I have a full weekend of going out the weekend before (Manchester all day Friday and Saturday and then an all day wedding on the Sunday eeeek!!) so I'm thinking I won't be where I want to be but I can only do so much!x

 

[g_2012]

You are so slim Gemma! When do you go? Maybe do a couple of red days after the weekend so you don't feel bloated?

 

[gemma1985]

We go three weeks today, but we go to Manchester the weekend beforehand! So it's also going to be a mega pricey weekend! I'm starting to get fed up of being so strict now so roll on the holiday and the copious amounts of food and desserts I'm going to eat!haha x

 

[g_2012]

Haha yes I love food and treats a bit too much. Keep finding myself having weekends off as it re motivates me, not great for the weight loss though! X

 

[g_2012]

Cant stop eating atm! Have something then an hour or two later I'm hungry again. Driving me mad! Wish I liked coffee as thats suppose to suppress appetite. Anyone have any other tips? X
