Hi Rosie, interested in the sugar addicts thingy! When i read the Ian Marber book (food doctor) he recommends avoiding all sweet things even artificial sweetners cos they still give the the cravings from just having the sweet taste. Always assumed cos bread was my thing thast doesnt apply to me but actually its all carbs of one form or another isnt it!!
I'm not a funfair/amusement park person either-my favourite ride is the burger stand ..LOL
btw-'wee mental machine' really suits you!!

Thanks all for popping by. I appreciate it.
Jane - what evidence do you have for that wee mental machine thing??? I am a perfectly upstanding member of the training consultant fraternity
We are off on hols on Sunday and taking our bikes with us. Will probably go out today and tomorrow - not sure for how long/far - I tend to play it by ear (or actually by how hard I have had to work...its very hill dependant!)
On the sugar front - any kind of refined carbs give you the hit that makes you want more - so white versions of rice, bread, pasta etc - but not so much the brown stuff. I am just trying to steer clear for now.
Eating lots of fruit though and that has natural sugar but dont think its so bad. xx

Thought I would change my mood from lurking - only choose that because of the one eyed picture it gives...my conjunctivitis has pretty much cleared up now. So glad about that.

soon to be mother of the bride
so glad the conjunctivitis has gone
how is the non white stuff eating going
I tried that and have now gone one step further and am avoiding caffeine gluten salt sugar processed or refined foods
food prep cooking takes its time BUT it all tastes so much better - and I feel healthier even if the weight isnt shifting
hope the staying clear of the white stuff works for you

Rosie, what chocolate is it you eat? I've started to really like dark chocolate.. 2.5 is a good amount of points for a chocolatey snack I feel! The G&B bars are 4.5, which is more than things like crunchies and ripples (and smaller :sigh
Moser Roth chocolate from ALDI - its 99p (?) for 5 25g bars or maybe 20g - but anyway, enough to take away the chocolate craving. And unlike milk chocolate it doesn't make you want more.
Whoop de do...100 pages of total drivel from me (with a little help from my friends
)thanks for all the visits etc.....lovely to "see" you all.
Going to Southampton for 4 nights. I use De Vere hotels a lot when working and they sent me a special offer email for 4 nights for up to 4 people (2 adults, 2 kids) for £289 - B&B - bargain!!
Taking one of H's friends as the my middle child thought spending 5 days with the old farts and a 9yr old, just too much to contemplate. He'd rather stay with his auntie and cousins...fair do's.
We are planning to go into London one of the days, and over to the Isle of Wight - hoping to get at least dry weather....
Had some friends round last night and my "no white stuff" resolve went - had some garlic bread - and it was lovely.
Have an odd day today. H is in "Lord of the Flies" with her drama group so she is away all day rehearsing then performing at 7.30pm. Taking the boys to the train at Crewe for 4 - then might go out for a bike ride if the rain stays off.

Came home from dropping H off - having stopped off at Morrisons for scrambled egg on toast....white bread
Took the boys to the station - came home - had sleep and then went to see "Lord of the Flies" - it was fantastic. She is one of the much younger ones (they go up to about 20) in the drama group and I have to say, there are some very talented kids - H had a walk on, stand about type of part but some of the older ones were amazing. Really enjoyed it.
Had nothing "proper" to eat since breakfast so not good but not bad pointwise either. Might have some porridge before bed. x

I've been very lax in posting these last few days - posted on other people's before my own as my head is STILL not in the right place
Still exercising - 16miles yesterday and will do either a DVD or a bike ride today but my eating is just awful.
Lots of nibbling and while each thing is not bad in itself (I tend to only have lowish point snacks around) they all add up when you keep eating them.
Might go back on my W8 foodpacks for a couple of weeks just to get the snacking to stop. Not sure.....why can't we just press a button when we get to target that says "stick" and we can't eat any more than would allow our bodies to stay the same weight - how good would that be! xx
