Will get there one day!
I'm sneaking on whilst at work so might take awhile to type!
It's so true, I obviously don't realise how naughty I'm being so writing everything down I can look back rather than just think "I've only had one bad day" when potentially I've had loads of little things that have all added up x
Hey thank you lovely, I'm really so proud of you x
Thank you, just about to post even though haven't had dinner yet.
That's true, I don't feel very fit at the moment though but I'm sure I must be getting fitter x
Well that took awhile as everytime I wrote something I had to stop!
Will write my food now but haven't actually had dinner yet so will update it later once I've finished for the day, thanks all x

but you have lost - you have not put on
and you have been working on your fitness (gym) so dont forget you are now much fitter so you have been doing that for you

It could be that you are just needing some extra protein in your diet as that is energy dense and make sure you drink plenty of water as that releases loads of energy... I have found since changing from Quorn to Soya I have noticed a big improvement in my energy levels...xx

You're probably right unless shift works killing us both at the mo! X
JackieN said:food looks yummy Helen. Have you measured? Remember one can lose inches and not pounds when exercising
Protein definitely helps
Mmm no I haven't measured lately but clothes aren't feeling very different, will measure in next couple of days and see what they say.. Mind you my neighbour saw me in my gym kit the other day and said wow you can really see the difference, I guess it's because they were figure hugging so I must be getting there x
Aaleigha said:check you b vitamins too as you need them for energy release
Thanks I'll have to check what food I get vitamin B in x
Haven't really had much protein rich food today I don't think so that's not a good start! Tried out a green day today and have ended with a lovely hot chocolate I'm just getting into bed with as I'm chilly.
Today some guy cracked me up, I had wrote down what food I'd eaten today and had it on my desk and under dinner had wrote "BNS risotto (HEA)" well at work HEA means a Heavy container, he found the list and said "you've eaten a AKH?! WTF you've eaten a Heavy" and kept laughing and then said "what is this", proceeded to grab my list and said "well that's not very healthy, I was impressed with your food until I saw you'd had a fry up for breakfast, naughty, naughty", I then explained it was all fried in fry light and he queried the bacon, I then had to explain all the fat was cut off.
Sat there after he'd gone back to his desk and thought to myself that's why I don't like eating in front of other people because they judge and I end up having to justify myself, I then said "do you think my diet is bad then?" he said no and thinks he should do the same and snack on fruit rather than keep buying chocolate!
Well in the time it's taken to type that my tummy's playing up, guessing must be the milk or I have just come on grrr!

I hope you feel a bit better today Helen... If you are wi I hope that goes ok... If I am struggling with protein I usually have peanut butter... Kals has some whipped stuff from the states which is low cal and I am going to send for some next month...xx
