Steps In The Right Direction...86.6lbs Lost Fasting

Great plan weebuns. It's trial and error for us all and we can learn from others. What's the cashew butter like? I love peanut butter but have decided I can't be trusted with it in the house... I love the peanut bars and that's my little treat now. Have you tried almond butter? They just seem soooo expensive to buy to simply try lol xxx

I love the cashew butter. I got the 100% nut one with no added sugar, salt or oil and I find that unlike jars of regular peanut butter I'm not tempted to eat it out of the jar because it doesn't have the addictive sugar/salt/fat combo. It is really tasty but a wee bit..couple of teaspoons is enough. Not tried the almond butter yet but intend to after this is finished. Trying not to have too many things open at once as some of it always ends up getting put out! I got the meridian one which is the same make as the peanut bars, was on offer in Holland and Barrett when it was buy one get one half price. Though I saw they are also doing it in Tesco on the 4 for 3 healthy foods. They are expensive and I too was a bit cautious but if you like the peanut bars I'd say you will like the natural nut butters. I could eat a family bag of salted cashews in one sitting but a wee bit of this does the trick :) xx
 
Really uncomfortable night last night with pelvic pain. Felt like my lady bits were going to fall out my hoohaa :eek: Felt like a whole load of.. "pressure" is the only word I can use to describe it. It isn't often it happens but I threw up with the pain.Even sitting down is uncomfortable. Been to chemist and got some different painkillers which seem to have eased it for now. Niece and nephew arriving shortly but thankfully they are both now teenagers so will no doubt be plugged into something electrical and will only need supervision and feeding and watering.

SO sorry but the tears are tripping me with laughter at this description. Not a laughing matter though. We've had this conversation already but if it goes on get yourself to the doctor for a wee check.
Hope the teens behave themselves, have a good day x
 
Been a long day and still have on and off pain. :( Today's food...

Your food looks lovely x

Hope you feel better and the pain goes away x
 
You food looks very appetizing. Sorry to hear you're still experiencing pain. Hope it goes by tomorrow and that your lady bits remain safely where they should be.
 
Hope you feel better soon! Anyway I've take a leaf from your book & I'm not going to weigh until 1st Sept! GULP!!!
 
Yay...we can be monthly weigh in buddies!! I have a lot of birthdays to go to this month so we can lay bets as to who freaks out first!

Oh honey you're a pro now it will be me!!! But I also know my daily weighing is a habit I must break. You never know I may see my 10 when I weigh in 28 days ?

Confession...I freak out but do it offline :p!!

Kind of wishing right now that my lady bits would just fall out. And it's one of those days where I feel like I must have hollow legs because I can't stop eating :eatdrink051:
 
I've eaten a lot today. Pics of some of it...

pic20140803225400.jpg

All bran, banana, koko milk. Butternut squash soup with dollop of greek yogurt. Lean steak mince, new potatoes, carrots, broccoli. Vanilla latte. 3 toastie sandwich thins with cheese ham, tomato and a salad. Spinach, apple, pineapple, ginger smoothie. Nakd bar, pesto chickpea snacks and a peanut bar.

Fast day tomorrow.
 
Your food looks so nutritious. Puts me to shame.
 
Yeah it's hard to eat junk when you don't have it in your cupboards. The teens had plenty of junk to eat but were very possessive of it...though I swear Gavin's breath smelt of doritos :rolleyes: Ate a LOT of cheese when making the toasties! Not going to beat myself up though as I haven't done anything wrong...was just one of those days. They happen! Fast day going well and hoping to eat about 6 x

It's amazing how possessive kids are over their junk food. James just about has a heart attack if I pinch a chicken nugget when we (occasionally) go to McDonald's when he's got six nuggets, a cheeseburger, large fries and a muffin to chomp his way through and I'm sitting there with a coffee. I wouldn't mind but who pays for it in the first place?! LOL.

They sat either end of the couch with their separate piles of goodies practically with their arms round them! Gavin only got a look in because of his big puppy eyes...though the smells he is making today I'd rather wish he hadn't :faint2: Barely even a grunt of thanks from either of them for all the sugar, fat and additives I kindly bought them.
