Not a pain - it's what the forum's all about!

I don't 'do' exercise ... thought of it makes me shudder - walking's all I do. And I finished LT & refeed more or less where I wanted to be but when I've put a few pounds on I try to get back to a basic sensible 3 meals coz it's the 'picking' that does me in! Plus the fact that I like a little drinkie on my nights off and I'm not willing to give it up!

Good luck with your weigh in - I'll catch up later I'm just about to finish a night shift and get off home to bed. xx

thanks alot jan

well i weighed myself this morning and lost a pound so start refeed at 11st 4lbs about. cos my scales arent fantastic.

but will prop get weighed at pharmacy next week.

well i do walk to school and do as much walking as i can, also i go on one of them vibrating platforms to tone my body so i think thats ok.
well i came off LT earlier than wanted cos i needed to eat. so need another ten pounds ish

I'm starting to sound like an advert for quinoa all over this forum but standard quinoa grain is gluten free. Do not have quinoa flour or quinoa flakes as these may be processed in a factory where flour is milled and therfore cannot be guaranteed gluten free.
You can use quinoa instead of potato/pasta/couscous.

[Dee 25]

I used to holiday in Marmaris, but I prefer Icmeler now, we just returned yesterday, gutted to be home.

 

[Dee 25]

i know i love turkey, my mum goes all the time, thats why i started to go because she comes with me with my two girls they only 5 and nearly 4, so abit of an handful.

i've heard icmelar is nice, one of the lads see every year loves it there.

really want to loose this weight, but had a terrible day today with diet, missed breakfast and then had a good lunch but then had chocolate tonight, which is not good. think maybe totm cos craving sweet things.

so gonna try again tomo
