emma-louise's food diary... about time too!

[Hathor]

thanks hathor!! how are you getting on this week? xx

OK thanks. Bloody wii fit says I weigh 1lb more, which really gets on my nerves and I can only conclude it isn't accurate!

What day is your weigh in? Mine is Tuesday and I really want 2lbs off because I set the mini target of 2 weeks to reach my 2stone sticker (4lbs to lose).

Don't fret too much, pile in the superfree today, drink tons of water and fingers crossed you'll keep your shiny.
And you've done so well throughout, don't worry about a couple of days - as long as you had a fab time that's the main thing!! x

 

[Katerpillar]

:drool: stroganoff sounds stunning! I really need to try some new stuff instead of repeating the same old! Thanks for the recipe!

Good luck tomorrow - fingers crossed for a loss for you!

thanks hun, i went crazy on the water and managed a STS so not the end of the world.. still feel rubbish though, urghh never mind! how are you getting on this week? xx

it was really nice, i would deffo recommend britmums recipe, i added a slosh of white wine (synned of course ) and it was really delicious! thanks, i managed a STS which isnt so bad i suppose thanks for poppin into my diary xx

Loving your food diary.. You're doing well.. a little hiccup every now and then is ok.. have to enjoy yourself once in a while xx

thanks hun! yeah i do tend to have tiny blips every now and then, this has been my first bad week though - not good! never mind, i can cope with a STS xx

 

[emma-louise]

STS this week.... boo im trying to relax and enjoy my last week at home but things arent too good between me and my mum again so im just eating whatever gets put infront of me at the minute to try and avoid arguments xx

 

[sarah83]

A STS is good - at least you didn't lose your shiny which you were worried about.
I honestly wouldn't worry too much about this week. You know your mum best, and the last thing you want to do is go back to uni after a massive row, so try and take control of what you can, but don't worry if you slip up, you know you can get right back on it when you're back in uni!

Forgot to ask you - are you in halls or in a shared house? I know when I was in uni my friends loved me cooking for them, so maybe you could nominate yourself to cook - you're in complete control then... plus you can show off a bit!!

 

[emma-louise]

im in a shared house with three other girls who dont seem to have cooked much before so i guess naturally i will end up doing more than my fair share of cooking! i like it that way, i know nobody is sabotaging me with oil or cream in the flat last year we all cooked our own meals on an evening, but we had a much bigger kitchen then so i dont know how practical that will be this year! xx
