Oh my gosh poor you :( is it that time of the month? or maybe just a bit tired from the weekend? Gym is a good idea, blood pumping and endorphines or whatever will perk you up hopefully x

Hello everyone!

Well as some of u might have read, I've had a really crap day today. I don't know why but I just could not stop crying :( so had to have a day off work and everything but it had been nice to just relax and I seem to have perked up a bit. I've been to the gym also and been to get the last minute things for my daughters 5th birthday tomorrow.
I must have changed because normally when I'm feeling crap I want to eat crap but I have been good as normal, I didn't even have any cravings for bad things so I hope the emotional eating switch has gone out of me!
So food today has been
B- toast with spread and jam then later on 2 weetabix and milk before the gym
L- omlette with chorizo, goats cheese and chives and a glass of semi skimmed milk after the gym. Then an activia fibre yogurt and mango chunks
D- wholewheat pasta with meat free meatballs and a tomato sauce, then some of the left over chocolate tart with WW cream.
Total 1735
Gym 593
I allow myself 200 extra cals on gym days so have gone 35 over oops but will make it up tomorrow. Going to try to go swimming or something tomorrow before WI on weds and will try to resist a piece of birthday cake till after WI the morning after!!!
Hope everyone's weeks have started off well :) x
 
Food looks amazing and Cas is right you are SO good at not snacking. Happy birthday to your daughter!!!! Glad you are feeling more chipper!
 
I try my hardest not to snack but at breakfast is probably the only time I do, so on there it says like toast I had that at 8.30 then my weetabix about 10.30. So my 500 cal breakfast is spread out whereas my lunch and evening meal I eat and don't snack between those! The night time snacking was the worst for me but I've overcome it somehow!
Thanks for your nice messages, I am feeling loads better today. I really don't know what was wrong but today's better especially as it is my daughters birthday!! Unfortunately we've had school and works as normal but can't wait to pick her up and celebrate more!!
Ill check in with food later as we are going out for tea but not sure where or what ill be having but I know it will be good as its WI tomorrow!! X
 
hello again!!
well foods been good today as its WI tomorrow. im quite excited as i did not weigh last week after my mini breakdown! so here goes...
B- mini max cereal with milk
L-6 inch subway on 9-grain bread chicken breast loads of salad and light mayo, then a nectarine
S- a hot choc and an oat so simple bar (these are delish and a good low cal alternative to flapjacks)
D- resisited the chips and pizzas at the kids playcentre for little girls birthday and they made me a lovely salad with crispy chicken strips and sweet chilli dressing guessed at around 350 looking at MFP options.

so total been around 1200 and no exercise today, at the gym tomorrow... after hopefully a good WI so will let you all know and keep your fingers crossed!!

Thanks for all your lovely messages ladies! I'm feeling fAbulous and so happy with this weeks weight loss!!

Today has been a good one diet wise but I do feel my mood switching very quickly in general. I don't think I'm due totm but I feel my fuse is very short as of late. It started Monday with me having the day off work with crying! Tuesday was fine, today some woman was very rude to me in Asda and I just shouted really loud at her!! After that I thought you know what I feel like **** and I've done well on the diet I want to treat myself, but treating myself with food is a bit alien to me now! Or even being sad or stressed I don't look to food. So instead I got my eye brows waxed and now currently enjoying a nice hot bath. Yes I did finish off the rest of the choc tart but it was because A. My tea was surprisingly low in cals! And B. the cream and the tart were about to reach its use by date!
So other food today:
B- strawberries topped with an activia fibre yogurt and half a punnet of the Graze omega seeds (thought they would help me feel fuller for longer as meant to be a good source of protein!) I was hungry by 10am! So I had an innocent smoothie and an oat so simple bar.
L- after the gym I had a rice time pot thing from uncle bens. Very impressed it takes 1.30mins to cook. Not a massive portion for 378 cals but good if your in a rush.
D- I really enjoyed the omlette I had for lunch Monday so did it for tea had 3 eggs (1 whole and 2 whites) and the chorizo chives and goats cheese only totalled 200cals! Added some salad to my plate but then had the choc tart for afters with ww cream which I think is lovely!
Total 1658
Gym 600 really pushed myself today doing some kettle bell swings and increasing my treadmill speed a little

Anyway I've recently started a rule to not eat after 6pm. I don't snack anyway at night but I want to make sure I'm done eating tea etc by 6pm. So far so good! Today and yesterday were cutting it fine I managed to finish my meals by 6pm but it does make it easy to think at 6 I don't have to worry about food anymore! And I can relax!!!

Hope you're all having a good week so far and good luck to any other weighers xx
 
Morning all!

Well yesterday was so busy I'm only just checking in now! It was a bit if a non day because I was out with a work lady all day so after my healthy breakfast later we went out to lunch. We went to this place called chimi changas I've never seen one if these Mexican restaurants before. But it was nice and I had a quesadilla off the lunch menu. I ordered a side salad and when it came it had rice with it too but I was a good girl and left the rice.
My porridge cane to 327, it was an oat so simple sachet made with 1% milk, a few fresh blueberris and the other half of the Graze omega booster seeds.
I looked on the restaurants website but no NI!! Mfp had some alternatives and I wanted to estimate about 1000 for it, I know it prob wasn't but wanted to be on the safe side cos it was full of cheese and chorizo. Cos lunch was late I didn't have dinner with the kids and then one thing led to another and it was 9.45pm! Too late after my 6pm food cut off! I wasn't starving so I just came to bed! Just woke up now and not feeling super hungry but I'm sure it wil develop as the morn goes on!!
I have to work today which sucks as I never work Fridays but because of my breakdown on Monday I said I'd make up the hours today so no gym for me :( as I've got hair appointment at 12 and then I'm out tonight! Driving and not drinking as I'm off the zoo on Saturday with the family I can't wait. And also not drinking will keep those cals down down down from drink and the dreaded take away!!
Hope you all have a super Friday and a super weekend!!!! X
 
Hi all hope you've all had a fab weekend! Well mine has been loads of fun! Friday had to work in the morning booo :( but then had my hair done and then it was girls night out! As promised I did not have a snifter of alcohol, stuck to diet coke all night! Did have a chicken shish afterwards but it was small and had no sauce. So far so good!
Saturday we woke up early to go to London zoo! It was an amazing day! We all had a fab time! I made up a oat so simple pot and fruit salad for the trip up and then there we had lunch in their restaurant. Most choices were sold out as even tho it was freezing it was really busy! I ended up with a chicken leg portion and loads of lovely salad. We did not get home till gone 7 so we decided on a takeaway. Indian :( eek. I'm not a massive fan of Indian anyway I only enjoy saag aloo (potato and spinach) and I had a pancake kebab which is basically potato and spinach and lamb chunks wrapped in like a chappati. Had 2 3rds of the kebab and very little saag aloo so hoping it wasn't too bad. And besides I was on my feet all day and loads of walking!
Today has been a bit weird. I had Cheerios and milk for breakfast then it was a traditional roast. I had chicken leg portion loads of veg 2 x yorshire Puds and a little stuffing and gravy. I'm on my totm and I don't normally suffer but today my belly really hurts and I've been taking pain killers for it. I really fancied a bit of choc so we put on Harry potter and dug out the still remaining Xmas choc tin and I had about 10-15. I don't feel that bad about it because that is all I have had all day. I've clocked it up on mfp and come up with 1586.
Back to normal tomorrow but I do think this weekend could have been so much worse!! Alcohol and a big fat pizza on Friday?? Chips and more chips on Saturday????
And I'm super happy because on Friday I got so many compliments about my weight loss so far!! "Oh my god you look so skinny" "can't believe how good you look" and a few glances from surrounding males lol.
I have changed my profile pic to me on Friday night. I was really impressed with how well I looked. And the only way is down down down!!!x
