I know it's only one day, can't let it beat me - gotta counter the weekend in time for WI tomorrow! Currently on my break with crumpet & jam....menu:

B: total 0%, banana, nectarine & strawbs (1pp)
S: crumpet & jam (3pp)
L: tuna salad (5pp)
D: cottage pie with new potato top & veg (13pp)

On track so far.....

Very tasty, live raspberry with seeds, apart from the seeds in the teeth, but they do provide a little snack for later!!

So to add to the points:
S- quavers, strawbs, milk, shapers chocolate delight (6pp)

28/32
AP - none calculated, got to hunt down my pedometer & start wearing it again. Run tomorrow & my cycle commute so that's good...I'm wondering if I should do a few squat based exercises & crunches a couple of times a week to make my legs strong...just don't want to overdo it before the big 'race'....

Re: Healthy eating for life?? Here's hoping!!

Hey. Found you back!
You sound so like me-stone on, stone off...
But you seem to be doing really well. Don't mind the weekends-they're hard at the best of times.
What do u work at?

Hi! I know I think if I'm good in the week I can afford to let off a little steam at the weekends...hoping to stick to it this weekend though, out at a carnival on Saturday but other than that not going to be enticed out drinking & eating!!

Lost another 2lbs this week, 9st13 now With the running I'm hoping to get a bit more in shape!

I work on a deli counter in a supermarket, nothing exciting, but I'm on my feet & running around all day which isn't so bad....foods tempting though! How about you??

Madly rushing about this morn! Will update later I think!!

Aw I'd love a week to not have to eat out or drink. That's sounds terribly unsociable. Last year I'd havnt given anything to have so much on.... but it's easier to focus on controlling your intake.

That's a brilliant loss. Running clearly helping. Well done.
Used to run last year-only got up to 8km runs but was delighted with myself. But never got into it this year.

Oh I'd find the food so hard. I've worked in my fair share of delis, restaurants cafes, kitchens and I have zero willpower! Fair play to you. And ya its standing and goin all day so lots of steps!
I'm a social care worker-I work with adults with intellectual difficulties-autism and others. Its residential so hours are long and vary from week to week but I love it. Its a fully functioning house-the lads home so it can be easy enough to plan meals and cook up something yourself if u plan ahead. Physical work but like any job-easy days and hard days.

Saturday will still be a struggle, but I should be able to reign it in! I'm hoping its not just burgers & beer on sale (which I love!) but also healthier options! We're cycling out there, which is a 1hr return journey so that's good and earns me 4pp

Yeah really pleased with the loss, would love it if it stayed at this rate, but it'll be 1lb, 1/2lb, 2lbs on, sts etc... Although running should help... 8k is great, I only did 10k once and after training ran 5k for a few weeks then stopped, it's like I need the 'race' to motivate me to do it....so I need to book a run for November!

Sounds like we've done similar work! I worked in a residential home for 3 years & I really loved it, adults with profound disabilities & no verbal communication. I moved away & got thus job because I'm studying part time & I didn't want to be worrying about work/people I support - this job I turn up, work, go home, mon-thurs rarely a late night, perfect but extremely dull!! I miss social care, your job sounds ace

[the_last_time]

Yum love dominoes! My pizza will be on warb squarish wrap or pitta with salad & hm coleslaw, leaving pp for beer!

I got a bunny in April & until now he's been a house bunny till now, always with the intention to wait till summer to put him out, so he's older with a better coat etc,.. I'll still have him inside in the evenings & other times I'm about to spend time with him & will bring him back in in the colder months.....so we got him a hutch on a run with a ramp. Up until now he's spent a few hours/the day in it & we put him in the run, he sniffs about a bit & then goes up the ramp. So tonight is his first night out...he's had his play time with us & I put him in the run. I've just sat there now for 30 min watching him sit about...my concern was that he just wouldn't go into the hutch & would get cold & scared....so I've finally picked him up & plonked him upstairs. What I'd love to find in the morning is that he's in the run munching the grass or chilling out, fingers crossed!! I think I'm babying him too much, my husband does at any rate!! You can tell I don't have kids Anyway that's my ramblings, night night

Everyone keeps talking about those wraps! Good choice to save your pp for beer, I'm not drinking at the moment so was happy to 'waste' 30pp on dominos lol x
