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

Monthly weigh in result is 1.6lbs off. I am overjoyed at that!! Might not seem a lot to some but August is my nemesis food month. And it brings me to 77lbs lost...5 1/2 stones of blubber gone :D Back to basics for September...no weighing, no calorie counting, 2 fasts a week and healthy eating 80/20.

Woohoo well done babe xx
 
Quick food pics

Breakfast was all bran, greek yogurt, honey, strawberries and blueberries...eaten while Gavin ran round the kitchen at a hundred miles an hour in a tired, temper tantrum! No pic of lunch as didn't want to be the weird person on her first day taking a picture of her lunch...will save that for tomorrow. I had a sweet chilli wrap with chicken, spinach and tomatoes. Followed by 2 plums and some cherries and grapes. Dinner was salad, pork loin... and the brown stuff is puy lentils...tasted better than it looks. Also had a chocolate protein, spinach, banana shake tonight.
 
I am so tired :eek: This full time working lark isn't all it's cracked up to be. Will be glad when the initial couple of weeks are over and I can work from home. Though I must confess I had adapted well to my unemployed days of rolling about with Gavin, going out when I felt like it, watching the channel 5 afternoon film...and having time to cook proper food!

Today's food is brief. By dinner time tonight I was starving, and I had trout which seemed to take forever to cook and as the veggies were ready I ate them first...then had a protein shake....the leftover lentils...and finally the trout eaten on its own. None of that made for any decent pics so didn't bother.

Breakfast was all bran, milk and strawberries. Lunch was a food doctor pot and 2 plums, red grapes and cherries. Not very thrilling all in all! Also had some corn thins and cashew butter tonight but sat down with it and phone was on other side of room and couldn't be chuffing bothered getting up so no pic :p
 
And hotbuns is no more. The man who never wants commitment..ever.. said I was being unfair to him and insensitive to his needs and needed to commit more to him :eek: NO! Talk about double standards. So it's back to just me and Gavin :doggy:

Awww sorry to hear that. He's a bit cheeky saying that after his big 'don't want to commit' revelation.

I firmly believe that there's someone out there for you. Someone who is on the same page. You might not like same things etc but you love each other and are going the same way.

You and Gavin are a good wee unit :) x

Men!!!! You will find the right one when you're not looking. Are you still moving now you have a new job or are you staying put? Xx

Thanks x I think I've got a bit more confident over the past few months and I'm not prepared to settle for second best. I don't mind a bit of compromise but he was basically asking me to be available when it suited him and I wasn't supposed to ask for anything in return. And to me that's not an equal relationship. He's a really nice man, funny, smart....just not right for me. And when I realised I wasn't that bothered that it was over I felt a lot better! Who needs a man when I've Gavin to drive me nuts with his demanding, needy behaviour!

Still moving. Job is only till Christmas and can work from home from the week after next so won't stop me moving. Past few weeks has been hard finding time to even search for suitable houses. Plan on having a good browse online at the weekend x
 
Food

Breakfast was greek yogurt, granola, strawberries and some cocoa delight nakd bits. Lunch (eaten at half 4!) was sandwich thins with cheese and tomato bunged in the microwave till the cheese melted! Dinner was penne pasta bolognese with some parmesan. And a green protein shake to end the day. Also managed to get hold of the caramalised apple green tea and it is REALLY good :)
 
Here's why you want to hurry up that house search. This morning's walk, how much fun would Gavin have? This is just out my back gate, opposite one of your favourite houses! And the sun always shines in Holywood. No, really!

Three things came to mind when I saw those pics Kitty...

1....awww what a lovely dog :doggy:
2....it's not on a lead an it hasn't run off at a million miles an hour in the opposite direction :chores016:
3....Gavin would probably swallow that ball whole :eek:

I really will need to pull my finger out and get looking because everything is selling quickly :(. Only time I'm on laptop is now when I'm in bed. Too tired to even do my food pics!! Half day tomorrow so will make a start then x
 
It's not the doggy you're supposed to be looking at! And he only doesn't run away cos of the ball, he's addicted to it. Gavin needs an addiction...

Are the lovely folk of Holywood ready for Gavin's plastic addiction though?? Hurling a plastic bathroom bin into the sea isn't quite the same as a ball. That's not to mention the plastic spoons, measuring jug, washing up bowl etc etc that are all he will play with at the minute. He still sleeps with the empty sweetcorn tray ....though it has a rival for his affections...an empty cottage cheese tub :rolleyes:
