Hi Jan, thank you. Yes I do cook (mostly) everything, practically all my recipes come from the bbc Good Food website or books. I'm a huge fan of their recipes as they come with how many cals, grams of fat etc. there are in each portion, which is really useful.

I have fallen off the wagon today. I feel really annoyed with myself after having such a strong resolve a week and a bit ago. I think maybe limiting myself so much has caused me to fail. :( (parhaps a treat a day will keep the demons away!)

Hi, I don't mind you asking. I currently weigh 9st 3lbs, but started a few years ago at 11st 4lbs (or was it 7lbs, I can't remember now!) but that has been over about two years. So it's slow process but I think it's the most realistic way to loose weight.

Good question, I would like to know too! I always struggle to make them interesting and keep the calories down at the same time.

Tue 10th May B -Half a grapefruit and muesli. L -A slice of rye bread with hummus and cucumber. S -Stawberries. D -Meatballs and spagetti.

Great looking menu today. I think maybe the overeating after having jam could be because, like you say, it gives you an inital sugar hit. Which doesn't last long and won't keep you satisfied until lunch. So you compensate by overeating and get off track. Your breakfast today has more slow...

The first thing I would suggest you do is have a good look at the packet. Before I buy any cereal I look at how much per serving there is in sugar, as I think this should be as low as possible. I always try to find a muesli without any added sugar. The other thing I would suggest is to then...

Thanks for the support. I haven't even finished my easter chocolate yet, but I'm hoping I can be a bit more sensible and just have a little bit every now and then, rather than say the whole egg that I demolished on sunday! I feel pretty awful though, after eating so healthily for awhile now...

That's it, I'm giving myself the weekend off. I've been given a huge lindor easter egg and been to a BBQ today. Easter is too difficult to avoid!

Wed 6th April B -Half a grapefruit and porridge. L -Chicken and orzo soup. S -Tropical fruit granola and skimmed milk. D -Meatballs and spagetti.

I think that you have the right idea, three good meals and day and snacks if you need them, should keep you from bingeing. I think eating too little isn't sustainable, that why you end up bingeing in the end, which isn't a healthy way to go. Best of luck, I think your plan is great.

That's an amazing loss for nine weeks, what an achievement, congrats!

I think something else to consider LMS is your vitamins and minerals. Are you taking a supplement? I doubt your limited diet is giving you enough nutrition. Surely that is what healthy eating is all about? Your evening meals are mostly looking better, but I also don't feel that an apple and...

You are not alone in feeling the way you do, I'm in a similar situation but ten times worse. Believe me you are so lucky. It's hard to believe it when someone tells you I know, but you have to look at the positives.

I've been keeping up with your diary LMS. I think your meals look much better over the last few days, than previously in your diary. And you sound much happier and positive, which is great, it must be suiting you, well done.
