Morning/afternoon ladies.
Where has this morning gone?????????
I'm just sitting down to lunch and I've realised I've had mostly PV days this week. My body is screaming out for veggies/salad/fruit so I'm adding a little (tiny) amount to most meals. I'm willing to pay the price at tomorrow's weigh in if it stops me from falling off the wagon altogether, which I am in fear of doing at the moment.
I think I've reached 'the wall' of dieting, and now I think about it, it does happen about a month into things for me. If I can struggle on through the next week I'll be a happy bunny. I may just have to do this one day at a time at the moment.
PV Day
B - Oatbran and yoghurt
L - Scrambled egg, 2 burgers, cucumber and tomatoe
D - ???? Need inspiration
Have a good day lovely ladies

Thanks Scrumps. I REALLY dont to fail at this diet so I figure a slight variation short term is better than going back to my bad ways.
I swear tho, you should have seen the farce that took place in my kitchen about 30 minutes ago. I got 2 slices of bread out the packet and put them away twice. I literally battled with myself! It's madness. LOL

Nikki - I expect the chocolate biscuits brought you out of ketosis, and I don't know whether you got yourself back in? Did I see you mention fruit? Honestly, the easiest way with this diet is to get into ketosis and stay there... no temptations that way... far more willpower alas is required when out. aaaah!!
Jaqys - hmm... I went into holiday mode 24 hours before going, it's true... Hang in there...

It's so good to know you're all out there going through the same thing.
Jo, I'm def oiut of ketosis as when I'm in it I get that nasty taste in my mouth, so it's easy to tell when I'm in or out, but I dont think that has much to do with the bread thing as that's more habit than anything. It's like when I gave up ciggies. It's breaking the habit ones first and the rest is much easier. If I can just change my mentality about lunch not HAVING to be a sandwich life will be much easier for me.
Jac I'm so jealous of your holiday. It's going to be amaxing.

It's true that you are a real "bread" girl...
What sort of bread did you used to love? It's true that the UK sandwich + cake tea (I think more in those terms than lunch somehow when I think back) doesn't exist over here where people "tend"(ed) at least to have two x meals.

Oh Jo dont even get me started. My fav is a fresh baked seeded loaf Mmmmmm If I'm in France and then it's always a fresh baked baguette or one of those creme patisserie (spelling???) with the fruit on top.
The smell os fresh baked bread is almost as nice a Marlborough Light (joking) LOL

Jo, thanks for the food porn
ha ha ha OK OK I get it. Bread is evil
Vicky, my parents live 5 mins from a HUGE bakery and come Easter the smell of hot cross buns is intoxicating.
Sarah, it's nice to know I'm not the only one hun.
I'm off to look for the chinese chicken recipe. Sounds delish.
Dinner was chicken casserole and broccoli. I say casserole but it was just chicken cooked in stock with garlic, butternutsquash, tomatoes and basil. Was surprisingly tasty.
