I ache so much today. ... Think I definitely overdid it with the swimming. ... plus then coming straight home and cleaning the house. ... I've barely moved today!
Well done on the deep clean. ...I'm saving my major clean for just before Christmas. .... Just doing the quickest cleaning I can get away with at the mo as I hate doing it! !! When my ex first moved out I was constantly cleaning to keep myself busy. ... I'm over that now! !!!
roast dinner was a treat for my daughter as she'd been away at brownie camp all weekend. ... They had a roast dinner for lunch so she has had 2 today! !!
The popcorn was in a graze box so just the right size for a snack. ...I love popcorn as it's really filling and you feel like you've had a real treat

Bless you, at least it shows what a good work out you have done
I really need some of your motivation, I was exercising doing Leslie walks everyday but have got out of the routine now which is annoying :/
I love cleaning and then sitting down with a candle lit all cozy
She is so lucky having two roasts and a weekend away, hope she enjoyed it x

I don't know where my motivation came from. ... I've never stuck at a diet for this long. ... my ex was always a bad influence. ...I think I realised that I'm ready to move on with my life but lacked the confidence with the way I looked so it's driving me to stick to it
I love a clean house. .. Just hate the work involved in getting it done. .. especially with a 7 year old who says making a mess is her speciality!!!!
She had a fab time thanks. .. totally crashed out at bed time

I guess it will take a couple of weeks for those losses to show...plus a surprise visit from totm which has probably not helped the situation :cry: ...this has made me more determined for a better week next week as I would love to get to goal for Christmas!!!
breakfast : a jam donut (cakes at work for someone's birthday! )
lunch : chicken and bacon soup and a fruit salad
snack: 1/4 of a greggs sausage roll. .. bought it for my daughter and she couldn't finish it!
dinner : chicken tikka massala and rice

I have a headache and a bad mood today as I was woken up by the dog at 4.30! Going to the pub for lunch which could be dangerous as I'm starving today! gym tonight though so as long as I am not too bad at the pub I should still have a good day!
breakfast : porridge
lunch : Ham eggs and chips at the pub
dinner : porridge and a Cadbury highlight
power cut at the gym meant only 20 minutes :-(

That is still a good loss

I know it is I set myself up by having a sneaky peek a couple of days earlier so was expecting a bit more!
I'm expecting mine will stabilise soon as I've had good losses every week. .. even if the scales aren't moving though the health benefits will still be there
we had parents evening last night. ... Very positive
plus went into town shopping so it was a mad rush! She's at her dad's tonight so I'm hitting the gym tonight and tomorrow. Have you got anything nice planned for the weekend? x

It is always difficult when you think you will lose more but I try to remember how much I have lost and I also measure myself so I can see inches lost too, I recommend you do this if you don't yet as it is such a boost on weeks where you have a small loss because you have built muscle instead x
Yet well done to your little one
Does she not come back until Sunday then? That must be hard for you
Me and the bf are driving to see my sisters tonight to see her, her fiancé and my mom, my sister is due to have her baby in just over a week so this will probably be the last time I see her with baby in her tummy and not her arms he he
They want to all have a take away together though so scared of eating too much rubbish as I am desperate to get below 11st 3.4lbs boo x x

I don't measure but I am in clothes 2 sizes smaller which I'm amazed at.... despite losing so much and being in smaller clothes I'm really struggling to see the changes in me so think that maybe measuring would be a good idea!
I'm really annoyed tonight as went to the gym after work and there was a power cut 20 minutes into my run and they evacuated the building! got home and the power was out there too! It only just came back on! I'm going to gave to work extra hard tomorrow as I had chips at lunch which I justified with the fact I was going the gym! At least I am not hungry now as I didn't get my work out so will only have a snack for dinner!
my daughter is back tomorrow night so not too bad
your weekend sounds fun. .. Maybe if your lucky baby will make a surprise visit and you'll get to meet him/her early
I know what you mean about take aways. .. I'm totally avoiding them at the mo. .. Maybe you could pick a starter instead of a main or just try a little bit of everyone else's instead of ordering something for yourself?
If I give in to temptation I have really strict days for a couple of days after to make up for it. ..I.e porridge for breakfast and lunch and no snacks at all... Maybe if you can't resist you could try that? I think the closer to goal you get the harder it gets to be so good. ... I'm sure whichever way you go with it though will be the right decision for you and if you do over indulge you'll soon get back on track x
