Hey, thanks, dont get me wrong, overall i am happy pretty much, just being impatient over the past 2 weeks of slow down. i want to stay at 2 lb a week average, and with any luck i can perhaps pick that up now, fingers crossed that i have passed a glitch.
Right, measuring the correct amount of milk into a jug again first thing in the morning, thinking that my coffee intake has increased now the weather has altered, so maybe that could be an issue for the gain last week. I can think of nothing else that would have contributed to it, but, rather than do the same as a lot of others and go into the "i have no idea why i have gained" routine, i shall start up the diary again, note everything that passes my lips, and go from there.
Another thing i shall monitor as well is the activity. What with my mobility issues and the weather change i am not going out with the dog as much now, so maybe the wii fit will come back out into action.
I will not be beaten by this. I have not lost 2 and a half stone just to be stumped at this point.

Ahh sorry thought that was healthy extras as you'd written then in there for today: I'm awful at reading tables/charts lol! Am on my phone too and if I try to zoom in it moves about on the screen :/

Interested to know what the turkey & spinach lasagne tastes like, will you post pics?
After a friendly nudge via a private message last night and some research online today i have concluded that i need to become a rabbit. Lots of salad and veg.
One thing i can relate to was reading the words "If your weight loss is going fine, you may never think about Speed Foods at all." And that is true for me, running along nice and steady, just one blip after a night out the other week, but now a sudden halt to the proceedings. And how annoying it has become.
Personally I do believe that I eat a lot of free food and some super free, but the fact that its easy to THINK that to be the case has brought me back to the food diary and designing the spreadsheet, so I have a concise and accurate record of what I am doing each day. I may even have a look at modifying the sheet so that it records super free foods as well.
But for now I shall accept that I need to alter my routine and go back to basics. I feel a lot of recipe searching coming up over the next few days.

You can do it!!! Superfree is easy, even if your not mad keen on a 'side portion' of plain veg. Passata/chopped toms with finely chopped onions, garlic, grated veg etc as a pasta sauce is always a good one 
Sometimes you have to step back and really look at what you're doing to realise what you can improve - I'm sure you're eating more of it than you think!
