Caledonian Conso!

[CaledoniaDreaming]

So that's it - today both hubby and I started conso. I have 510 days, he has 280 days. Today I am TW of 10 stone 1, he is 13 stone 10. I'm quite anxious, as I think most people who have lost a fair bit are - but just keep reminding myself of what we have already achieved. Our first gala meal is going to be on the 3rd September so fingers crossed I'll have sorted my head out by then - today's carbohydrate wasn't that enjoyable as I was worrying!

Today's menu:
B - mushroom omelette; L - tuna salad wholemeal wrap; D - Roast chicken, BNS mash, cabbage, cauli; S - Coffee muffin & an apple

On another matter - it was my boy's second day at school today!! So handsome in his shorts and tartan tie! He makes my heart melt, and I'm very pleased that he is finding it enjoyable.

Gym tonight for an hour, burn of the damn carbs!!

CD massive congratulations on reaching your TW and happy Consolidation. I also loved hearing about your wee boy my nephew starts school in Sept. and I will take a week off to be with him as they have a week of half time school to ease them in gently. Cannot wait

Don't be afraid of the carbs!

Thanks for the lovely support! I honestly could not have got through the last 18 months without minimins .
I'm sat enjoying the fact that Mr CD took the kids to school in the torrential rain this morning . My wee boy was absolutely fine going in again, I'm so very glad he is enjoying this first week - it's a huge relief.

Today's menu:
B - Mushroom omelette; L - Tuna salad wholemeal wrap; D - Smoked paprika chicken stuffed peppers, spinach; S - Coffee muffin with chocolate cream cheese icing and coffee beans on top (yum), stewed apple with cinnamon.

I definitely agree with Trudy, it's actually the extra veg that I'm enthusing over - I've always liked veg but now I ADORE it .

Well,had first gala meal last night - not a good idea when TOTM was making me crave things. I could feel really bad about the fact my meal was two gooey desserts and an entire bottle of wine (!) but I'm trying to just accept it and learn from it. Today has been a good PV day and having both Monday and Tuesday PP to refocus. I knew this was going to be tough; I have such a difficult relationship with food!!
Today's menu:
B - Bacon, eggs, sausage (first low-carb one I managed to ever find!), mushrooms, grilled tomato, toast
L - Chicken & vegetable soup
D - Salmon and BNS "chips"
S - Coffee muffin, two greengages, soya yoghurt

Monday PP:
B - Scrambled eggs & bacon
L - Tuna (lots)
D - Chilli
S - Coffee muffin
