I'm not a happy bunny this morning I can tell you! Yesterday all the party that went with me to Legoland ate burgers and chips and I sat there dutifully munching on an apple! Oh well!

As it was a muggy day today I didn't manage to keep everything that I have eaten in my stomach sometimes the gastric band can become a hinderance than a help!
On a positive note Kathryn is sleeping for a much longer period at night and I certainly feel as if I have a quality of life again!!!

 

[Mrs V]

Seriously had enough of it all now
I have hand on heart stuck to plan 100% and what do I get for my troubles??? A 1lb gain this week
The only thing I can think of is either too many Ee days (I do bloat with Ee days) and/or the fact that I'm not eating tea until 9.45 at night. By the time I have put the children to be and hubby has decided as to what he wants for tea it's late. I have now put my foot down with hubby and told
him that we need to eat earlier. I'm going to give sw another week, but if I don't see a loss next week I'm not sure what I going to do. Maybe going over to the darkside ww may make a difference??

Anyway here goes another week with only today as an Ee day...the rest will be red.

Breakfast
250ml semi skimmed milk Hea
2 alpen light bars Heb
Half a melon

Lunch
