Today is supposed to be weigh in but I came on yesterday and stupidly ate a mini gluten filled hot cross bun, so not weighing and going to see next week. I always retain water so badly when I'm on and just don't want to see 3lb on. The gluten means I'm massively bloated too..oops
B
Shock- gluten free pancakes w/ agave- 300
So far today * week isn't looking like its going to be a fun one, can't imagine wanting to eat when I'm feeling like this!
L
GF crackers with cream cheese - 160
D
Going to have baby potatoes with salmon and veg- 485
S
Cream egg- my Easter is coming early, only get 1 egg which had cream eggs with it. Only 1 left!

Ok I really need to get back into writing everyday, haven't been feeling great at all so logging on mfp has been a task most days. In the last 3 days I ended up with one day 111 cals over and 2 bang on. I'm eating one meal a day and then complete sh*te. I'm not worrying about drinks cals etc so been having fruit juice and sugar in tea which has pushed cals up.. To say its been Easter weekend and yesterday the house was FULL of gluten free/choc goodies I haven't done bad.
Sun 31st march.. 9 weeks until my birthday and I want 15lb off and I will be at target, which is very very exciting!
B
Cream egg :0..eggs for breakfast is good right? - 180
L
GF crumpet w/ poached egg- 250
D
Vegetable bhuna from takeaway, asked for as little oil as possible-ate not even half the bhuna and about 1/4 rice and 1.5 poppadom - 438
Total is on 988 so room for a cream egg with a cup of tea later. I am seriously starting healthy eating tomorrow, as in no more crap!
