Thread: CHRISR's Food Diary - Please help x

The start of my food diary another strategy to help me lose weight. Im trying everything else well i think i am. I need your expert advice and help please - it would be most appreciated if im cocking this EE up. i think ive R & G stamped into my brain cant see how EE works. Well it hasnt for me up to now lol.

Today is not going to be a particularly good day as I havent been shopping yet.

Meals today are not planned but the rest of the week will be.

Ive also got an abscess under my wisdom tooth which has been very painful. Its back to the dentist this aft. Aggggggggh

So i shall update my 1st food diary later......

Looking forward to reading it Hun, perhaps we can make some suggestions to help you advance a little more with your losses. Good luck with the Dentist..Ive had 3 of my wisdom teeth taken out and can sympathise with you about the pain!

Hi Chris,
I know you haven't posted any foods yet but just one word of advice with EE, are you having a third superfree with all your meals?
I only say because although SW say you don't have to, if I don't have it then I don't lose with EE! It's great when I'm maintaining but I need to lose at the moment so am really concentrating on having at least a third superfree with all EE meals.
HTH and I'll read later.

My french visitors arrived and have now gone. Enjoyed every minute with my beautiful daughter, her fiance & friend. The 2 boys loved my cooking especially my SW roast dinner. LOL
I didnt do the plan really by that i mean i didnt eat loads of free food etc. i had no puddings or alcohol (taking anti biotics did me a favour although im not fussed in having a drink) I did lose a 1lb this week. So the weeks i stick to it 110% i lose nothing - wierd.
Anyway its shopping later - then from tomorrow its SW grub all the way. x

Not had time to do diary. Ive been spending ages completing a job advert. Hate doing this sort of stuff not very confident when trying to sell myself. I love my job and really dont want to change but unfortunately need full time pay due to current circumstances. I will restart my diary from the start of my SW week which is Thursday. I am ok on plan so should be ok for WI.

Im talking rubbish sorry not a job advert - job application (5 pages long) uggggh !
