oppps to the fudge but its also so yummy
right did I remember right you have four girls
give the rest of the fudge to them
what age are they - I ask this because the only other time I did a successful weight loss eating plan I stopped any treat food I liked coming into the house until I know I would be strong enough to resist the rest I send others out to get - so if for instance DD moan cos there was no ice cream I gave her the money to go get herself a small size rather than a huge tub of the stuff - that way she finished it over a couple of days and I didnt get any
I refused to have salt and vinegar crisps in the house (my fav flavour) if anyone else wanted that flavour they went and got just one packet to eat there and then
so any treat stuff that came into the house that I did not get myself was consumed there and then (or almost) by those that went to get it - ok so you would think it would cost a bit more to shop that way - but it doesnt as non of it goes down my throat so I obviously saved money in the long run
after all 6 packs of salt and vinegar crisps might seem like a bargain price BUT others might eat 2 and I would have four of them - that if I am honest I dont need to eat
so use those daughters wisely and feed them the treat food - just make sure they exercise it off

Oh I am sorry I muddled you up with someone else
ok please do not feed her your fudge
another thing I used to do before is cut each chunk of fudge into four little bits and then wrap the 4 bits in one foil parcel and freeze them then I could have four small bits but due to being frozen took longer to eat so really did fulfil the sweet tooth part of me
It is really lovely when people buy us things but why do they often come back with food items - saying that I am the same - I just made a hamper for a friend of my daughters (she was under going cancer treatment) and I filled a basket with homemade goodies including fudge - luxury spiced hot chocolate mix - some truffles and cookies - its so easy to give food as gifts -
do your family and friends know you are on an eating plan - I have to admit its just the first week for me so no one knows yet - I am waiting for them to notice before I tell them

Aaaargh again over indulged!!! Long day in the sun and after a 3 mile walk home I went crazy with cereal bars I was so hungry and Bunged instead of having fruit or other super free. So instead of crying in my pint for day and carrying on bingeing I'm going to draw big fat line and start fresh as tomorrow is Monday after all... I may still have a loss cause of the sheer amount of exercise done this week but If I gain I shall take it on the chin and move forward feeling all positive!!!! X
feeling all positive!!!! X

chop that alpen light into bite sized pieces and pop it in the fridge
even go so far as to wrap the bits in foil
the act of unwrapping takes time but also seems more indulgent luck today I think a restart on a Monday is an excellent idea - I so wished my class was a monday class seems more natural somehow

I think I am doing OK wednesday will tell - this is the first time in years I have not hopped on and off the scale - cant believe myself
I used to be a thursday weigher and my weekends were always so bad I think mentally I thought I could 'catch up' and that was for a long time my downfall
I had to find lots of ways to trick my mind into thinking I was having all the good stuff
I will be using those little tricks more and more as I get into the plan and I start to waiver
today I have had a lovely mixed fruit and yog breakfast with milled flax seeds as a healthy B
still struggling to find a lunch idea but dinner is sorted
might pinch your lunch but omit the ham (I dont eat meat) and change it for a hard boiled egg

I agree it isn't healthy and I've noticed I'm better on weekends if I know I'm going to my consultant's other class on a Wednesday night. Can't change to that one though as the kids have their St John cadets meeting on a Wednesday.
I try drinking loads of water to keep me fuller so I don't overeat but it isn't easy.
