Hi Issy :wavey:,
I hope your well. A 1 lb gain is not too bad Issy, it will defo come off next week
. I gained 2 lbs last week but lost 1 lb this week, so i'm back in the right direction . A new week and a fresh start for all of us. My losses have slowed down a lot since my op. I used to lose 3 lbs a week before, now I am lucky to even lose 1 lb a week, because my body magic has stopped. And being stuck at home and having to rest I get bored so I end up eating even when i'm not hungry. What I must do is keep healthy snacks nearby so I don't reach out for the wrong stuff when i'm bored. We have had such horrible rainy weather in London this week, I'm so craving fish and chips for dinner, but that's not happening ! lol I went through the family recipes book at group today, it looked really good, I might buy it next week and try out a few recipes. What have you got planned this week for food, to help keep you on track ?

Hi Kay,
That's great you sound back on track this week with your loss. Just back from shopping so stocked up on my fruit & veg, I'm gonna pack them into every meal. I got melons, because I think that's what happened last week, it was handy to reach for chocolate, at nite I can have melon chopped up to satisfy my sweet tooth. I have 2 x 1lt water bottles filled, already have one gone, last week I barely drank any apart from tea.
I have a family wedding this weekend, so have to be good in the run up to it & after it, because I sure as hell won't be during it, ha ha.
Weather has been miserable here too, just makes you crave stodge doesn't it, I love fidh & chips, that & pizza are two takeaway dinners I miss most
I got the family recipe book & still havn't got round to reading it. There's a Xmas book out with the purchase of a 12week countdown, I've already bought mine, I should've waited.
So I'm feeling positive for this week. I'm just back from the girls swimming lesson, had a fryup brekkie, have veg soup made for lunch & chicken provencal made for dinner, have a beef chilli made for tomorrow, fruity snaks planned & yogurts. I'll try to keep all the synning for the weekend, I'm staying over in the hotel with my mother & two sisters, so it's gonna be a girly weekend, so looking forward to it. Getting hair & makeup done on Saturday morning, still havn't decided what to wear but luckily I have a few dresses in mind.
How you feeling this week Kay?? Any word on your next operation?
