No no, Milo had a run in with a door - his previous owners little boy was only 3 and shut it on him when he was a kitten by accident. Its the main reason he's so skittish but it definitely wasnt on purpose!
Hardly seen him today as he was up all night keeping us awake! so he's getting trained into bedtime routine like Amber was
anyway, food for today:
B - lean bacon, baked beans and mushrooms
L - fish in butter sauce (1.5syns) cauliflower, peas, small jacket potato
T - pork chop with butterbeans in a white wine and tarragon sauce (3 syns - 50ml white wine and 3 tbsp ww thick cream, onion, garlic) cabbage, green beans
Kally, when i went to class the other day they had a big discussion on EE as people were saying they would start a red day then go onto EE when they wanted more pasta and stuff.. but the leader said thats where people go wrong as they forget that with EE you're supposed to have at least 1/3 plate of superfood with every meal. I just dont like the idea of snacking on something thats not superfree incase i should be applying the same rule to snacks.. i mean i assume if i decided to eat scrambled eggs every time i wanted a snack that my weight loss would be very different from if i was snacking on fruit all the time.
In short, i dunno if you're supposed to apply the rule but i would prefer to to make sure im filling up on the right things.. i asked if there was any limit on eggs and the consultant said no.. but i still wouldnt want to eat more than 12 in a week as theyre on the doc's list of things to eat in moderation.
Clarri, today i have done nothing apart from head out for some food shopping, a little lesson planning and some desperate housewives watching

When I am in the house, I am keeping him active as possible by petting / playing with him so he doesnt sleep as much, and I'm training him into the same routine that Amber had, which is that he gets shut in the bathroom with his bed, food and litter tray overnight so he cant come and keep Matty and me awake. He's slyer than Amber so far in that he bolts for the door as soon as it opens so its a pain that i cant make a full night without a toilet stop but i'm still getting a good 4hrs extra sleep a night at least - some nights hes fine but other nights hes scratching at everything, miaowing, climbing in and out of the warddrobe, jumping up and down off things etc unless im comatose with tiredness he keeps me awake x

I don't tend to apply the third principle to snacking and as long as over the course of the day a good 1/3 or more of my total food intake in superfree then I usually feel I have followed the principles. Tonight I am having quorn bolognese but I have added loads of mushrooms, carrots and onions to it so I know that a 1/3 of that meal is veg as I'm not really the kind of person that has side salads. I always try to have 2-3 portions of fruit every day, one is a banana but try to have the others as the superfree fruits.
It does take some time to really get your head around the plan, and I still read the book cover to cover once a week, but you're great hun x
