Thanks Maggie and Tara.
Tara are you going to have an "unofficial weigh in" on your home scales or wait until next week?
I'm pleased as i lost 1 1/2 lbs this week (2lbs on mine- grrrrrr) so i'm now at 9st 2 1/2lbs. Upping to 1200 from today although i've kind of been between 1000 to 1200 most days anyway. Do you have 1 or 2 cds on 1200? I've taken a supply of 2 per day just incase although cd said its 1 on 1200.
Been to the town to do some xmas shopping and food shopping. Came home laden down with bags so did pretty well. Now need to hide everything before ds comes home from nursery! He's got a children in need day today with face painting, cake making etc - he's bound to be absolutely manic when he gets home!!!
I did all the housework yesterday afternoon/evening (dont quite know how with ds around)! so for the rest of the day i'm going to sort out a few bits and do some paperwork if i can motivate myself.
Just had some shredded wheat for the first time in yonks - absolutely yum!!! Got some seabass and lemon sole from Morrisons earlier. I cooked monkfish last nite - yuk!!! Absolutely disgusting. I had one mouthful and chucked the rest in the bin!
Sounds like a nice day for you Tara - enjoy walk with h2b (soon to be dh!!!!) and dog. xxx

Well done Jo, only 2.5 lbs to go wow!
You do have 2 CD meals a day on the 1200...
I didn't think much to the monkfish either apart from it was bloody expensive...prefer bass or haddock.
Have a good afternoon, I have had my nails done this morning, so all nicely painted with the white tips...

Thanks lovelies!
I wonder why my cdc asked if i wanted to go down to 1 cd on 1200 then? thats a bit weird isnt it?
I shall stick to the 2 cds plus the extra cals - woo hooo party party party!!!!
Maggie, nails sounds lovely. I think i'll treat myself before christmas as mine look awful. I always think if your nails are nice you feel good all over (if you get what i mean!?) it kind of makes you feel glamourous.
3 hours Tara?!!!! r u mad woman?! you are going to have buns of steel! lol
My exercise has gone all to pot - might try and get back on track next week although my motivation just isnt there at the moment.
Don't bother with the monkfish Tara. It has the same consistency as scampi and its just WEIRD! It has this big bone down the middle and ....urghhhhh ...its just horrible. Been to Morrisons and got some seabass (our favourite
) and some lemon sole. Haven't had lemon sole for years. I'm really into trying the different fish at the moment now that i can really taste the different flavours.
Having some hot berry water at the moment (got that tip off you Maggie) as i just cant seem to drink any cold water at the moment at all. I hate the berry flavouring in cold water anyway but somehow its quite nice hot!
Right, i'm off to read my Now Magazine (it kind of counts as paperwork doesnt it?! lol)

I had lemon sole and sea bass tonight with sprouts, cauli and carrots. I wouldn't have the lemon sole again, it was okay but didn't really taste of much. Think it needs alot of herbs etc....anyway the seabass was yummy. Did you have seabass too?
ds fell asleep at 7.25pm which is completely unheard of!! He must have been exhausted from nursery today. How did yours enjoy their day?
Didnt get to the paperwork. Lay on my bed and started watching "sorry" on gold. Do you remember that? Ronnie Corbett as Timothy Lumsden. I used to love it. Anyway, the next thing i knew i had fallen asleep for half an hour! Just dozed off like an old granny! lol
Still feel pretty cream crackered tonight so think i will get off to bed soon and watch children in need in bed.

well yesterday was abit strange food wise as i kept to 1200 calories but had too many sugar free sweets which meant i didnt have enough calories left for either of my cd packets!
got to get a grip with this sweetie thing as i dont want to get back into that bad habit.
no water yet today but i'll catch up this afternoon. Only managed 2 litres yesterday but i'm not fretting as i dont think we probably need to drink so much at this level. We must be getting quite abit of water in our food by now I think.
So far today I've had a slice of melon, an apple,a nectarine, a coffee and an Options Bounty hot chocolate drink. I do seem to eat quite abit of fruit still but if thats what gets me through then so be it!
ds went tap dancing this morning so we are just chilling now and watching a dvd. He had vegetarian sausage toad in the hole for lunch and he's left half of it. Its sitting infront of me and smells gorgeous!!! I will resist!
Dreary day, raining so dont think we'll go out - just stay in the warm.
Hows it going today hun?

sounds like you have just about organised everything for the wedding now hun....bet it seems really REAL now! How long have you been together?
ds went to tap class yesterday and enjoyed it so that was good. Next week its jazz which is his favourite.
Been painting paper plates with different faces this morning, cutting out bits and pieces, gluing etc. ds loved it and i quite enjoyed painting a tiger myself
We popped to the town earlier and parked the car on the seafront. omg the wind was really strong and icy. I think they will probably cordon off the promenade later when the tide is high as the sea looked mad!
Really hungry today for some reason. i SO want some red liquorice but i haven't got any here so hopefully i wont go out and hunt some down! This sweetie craving has to stop! Before it was fruit but at least that was better than sweets! I'm even starting to fancy abit of chocolate, omg, i hope i dont start getting major chocolate cravings too
Just had a small bowl of raw cabbage to nibble on - what a weirdo! lol

:giveup: hope its safe to come out now hun! i wouldnt like to get on your wrong side and i bet the house will be kept spick and span this week! lol
However, every cloud has a silver lining and if the house had been all tidy then you would have been tempted to eat more! lol Infact, you should be thanking your kids and giving them all extra pocket money this week!

Hi Delli - nice to see you
Tara - u feeling calm now? lol . I'm chewing on the ol' gum now as that sweet craving is still lingering! Had a couple of treat size bags of teddy jellies tonight (left over from halloween) - they are miniscule but it was still abit naughty!
Getting up to 1200 cals quite easily but hoping it might actually speed up the metabolism and get these last couple of pounds off pronto. The few times that i have eaten a little more during cd i've actually lost more so i'm hoping that theory will continue to apply!
Right, going to try and get ds wound down for bed now. missed i'm a celebrity last nite so need to catch up with it tonite.
