Lost & Found... Map Gone AWOL!

Wow! I go to work for a long day, the kids hog the computer and so much goes on! Engagements, old friends dropping by......brilliant! Chelsea, really nice to see you again and please tell Jess I'm so pleased for her. :D
Jessica Rabbit, very good to see you back too. All snowed in then? Us too, well iced in really.
Stick with it Katy! I remember your 'keep on keeping on,' it's good. :) x

Aw thanks Bess, I will certainly pass on all your good wishes to Jess. She has been engaged a month, planning to marry in Summer 2012 and is Bridezilla personified lol. Bless

She deserves to enjoy every minute Chels...

I know, global warming, huh... ice age more like!

So glad to see old friends and new here, it makes it all seem more do-able at a time when I feel a bit low, but spirits rising and you are right Bess, keep on keeping on, it's the only way. And knowing we are not alone helps so much.

Not sure, but not a bad day. I will put it into Diet tracker later but haven't had a minute yet.

SO:

porridge made with water, berries, cinnamon
400 herb teas
WW lentil & carrot soup with multigrain roll & scrape of butter
small slice of wheat-free, sugar-free ginger cake when friends called round
home-made risotto & green beans

I think the risotto will have brought my cals up to 1200 I was aiming for, if not beyond, but would really like a CD hot choc now. I only have two and not sure whether to have one... maybe a shape yog instead for a sweet taste.

Not a perfect day but a normal one I think, & a million miles from the scoff-all-before-me mentality that had taken hold recently.

Hope you are doing well on 810 Sunshine, I am thinking of 810 too but need to get more supplies from CDC so need to wait for the arctic circle to retreat a little so I can get out/she can get in... I may do 1000 instead, but still need packs for that. So 1200 for now. I want to lose about a stone.

think your days intake is perfect hun! REally well balanced! I envy you for that!

Keep going hun and that stone will drop off in no time!

Thank you so much for all your wonderful support! You're a superstar!

Put the food into Diet Tracker & it came out at 1664 cals. 464 cals over. Not a good start... I can do much better.

I went wrong by eating ginger cake in the afternoon... one slice would not have hurt too much, but it was three by the time I went to bed... I am learning nothing. Without that, it would have been a 1200 day or close enough. Must think I am really smart to be eating cake on first day of a re-start... who am I kidding?

Scales same, which is no great surprise.

Today will be better... will use diet tracker from the get-go.

ok, so you shouldnt have had 3 pieces, but you did and you learned a lesson! As you say to me hun, today is a fresh day and you can learn from this!
have a day without anything off plan and snack on fruit if you need a sweet fix.....easier said than done hay! lol. But its always worth a try!
Keep going!
xxxx
 
I regret it, but did I learn a lesson? I don't know. If it was as easy as making a mistake and being sorry afterwards, I would be a saint by now... sigh. Thanks for the kind words Lizz, I know today can be different and I know that I can choose to learn from the mistake... today can be the day it all starts to make sense. And if not, I will do as KD mentioned somewhere else, and act 'as if' I knew what I was doing, 'as if' I had things sussed. It's a start!

Wishing you a good day, too, Lizz...

after 3 months of not learning i know exactly where your coming from, but irrelevent of everything else, our intentions must be good at least! lol.
Keep being positive hun! The dark cloud needs to pass so you cna feel happier about your choices! I've only managed to get through day 1 of SS by feeling mroe positive! silly really....that was the key all along!

Today is going to be another wonderful day hun, and we WILL both be saints!!!!

So far so good... porridge & a CD shake down. I only have one left now, boo! Rarely have them but the hot choc warmth was fab today, and I had a hungry moment mid morning, not surprising as I was up at 5.30.

Daughter set off for school and was promptly returned again, it has changed its mind and closed again. Am very glad, want the kids close, it's horrible out there. Son off anyway with rotten cold, he sounds like a seal. And more snow... when will it end?

we took Freya into nursery, for about an hour and then went and collected her! instead, we have built a snowman and run round like loons playing! She is the best for putting things in perspective! To Freya, i'm not a fatty, just her mum! I did this for her to start with, and my restart is just as much for her as it is for me now!
Enjoy the snow hun and having the kids round you! Precious moments are worth more than all this worry about calories! I loved forgetting about food while we played! Felt healthy! :D
Now i'm working again and consumed with food thoughts! lol! Cant win them all!
Cant wait for my lunchtime soup!!! YUM!!!

Keep going hun, your doing wonderfully!

You're doing great Lizz, and that snow-play has to burn some cals! Gotta be soup time soon... I am gonna get my WW soup now.

xxx
 
You too, lovely Sunshine... definitely soup time now...

xxx
 
I'm hooked on the caramel bars now! Didn't like them when I first started! Yum! I have some soup but not sure I'm wanting it at the moment. Enjoy yours x
 
Oh, I loved the bars... none left. :eek:(
My soup was a weightwatchers... we are low on veg to make anything from scratch, but about to make an attempt to get to town before this fall of snow freezes overnight... OH finished work early & seems to think it is do-able. Fingers crossed. I am following 1200 at moment, not the CD step really but just cals... when I can get to CDC I would like to try to go lower and back to 1000 or 810 but right now 1200 is a good compromise, all good today.

I loved the bars too, all of them. Bit hung up on Cadbury's Highlights for my chocolate hit just now, 40 cals a mugful, yum! Soup for us today for lunch too, but of a 'chuck it all in' kind, tasty though. x
