Ty Bgbumps and so are you xx
I put my oven on about 150 let heat up
Put oatmeal into small dish add whatever spices I want cinnamon, mixed spice, ginger etc
Then add just enough water to bring together, like when you make icing
make two biscuit shapes out of it on greaseproof paper on a baking tray, try not to press them too hard on to paper
I chop 2 almonds and scatter over the 2 biscuits and grate nutmeg all over them
then in oven for about 15 mins
if you have a fan oven I think you'd have to drop to 130 ish trial and error really
let them cool and peel from paper
I take vitamin and mineral and omega 3 tab daily so not too worried about nutrients
Lovely with a cuppa at work where I cant make into porridge

I survived my swimming, felt really energised after but now tired and very ready for bed. Was hungry for most of the day waiting on it being time for meals, maybe done too much?
Realised I am no longer morbidly obese just obese ouch.....

What's new for me this week.....
The party that I'm so undecided about is in a weeks time and I find myself going back and forth about what i'm going to do.
I find myself having internal arguments, where really i'm trying really hard to justify a decision to eat drink and be merry.
i'm bored eating slim and save - I'm not bored, I now eat to live not live to eat. So many other things are taking foods place. Walking , exercise, swimming and i'm getting through all those jobs you put off and put off.
I've been so good I deserve - Yes, but why does the reward have to be food and drink. Come on girl be more creative. You have your eye on a vibration plate exerciser, make that the reward.
It's only one day - but will it be, a night of off limits, high carb and alcohol, then a fry up in morning then the next day is wasted why not just keep eating, then the promise to start the next day and the the next.
When I write it down its so obvious I can't trust myself to come off for one night and i'm so frightened of going off the rails and what the damage would be on the scales and to my willpower.
I may have to put a time limit on the party and bail out when I feel myself wavering.
I could be the taxi driver that night and take out the alcohol temptation
If I get through this I will reward myself with the vibration plate exerciser!
walk 4 miles today, mowed the grass so had my workout thankyou lol
café caramel - oatmeal cookies - mushroom pasta/green beans - jelly - mint choc shake

Hey sojafay, looks like you've made your mind up! Last time I did s&s I had several nights off and it got harder and harder each time to get back on it. It's such a hard decision but I think that feeling the day after when you've stuck with it and realised you enjoyed yourself just as much, or didn't go and realised you didn't miss much is so much better!!

Week 8 Day 50
Day 50
1lb off this week, have been 100% so a bit confused. And have definitely lost inches and dropped down a size.
Have only been swimming once so surely can't be that. Daily walks around 3 miles, a couple of times a bit more, 12 minutes of toning exercises with weights, in general more active but not to the point of straining to do anything.
Well I am definitely staying on plan for the 50th I couldn't take the knock of putting something on.
:sigh:

Time will tell.....
Last day off for this week, back tomorrow, birthday bash tomorrow then nights sat sun yuk yuk yuk.

Ouch, ouch, ouch.......
well its either the vibration plate or jigging around on the dance floor but i'm aching all over this morning lol
Had a great time and so pleased to still be on the diet and not off it for the sake of a drink. That's proved something to me.
I know I had over my calories but it was protein, there was beautiful home-made applewood smoked salmon and rainbow trout even brought some home for the dog (he loves it too)
today I plan to have just shakes to try and get on plan.
Start 2 night shifts tonight a day off then two late shifts then 3 weeks off Yeehaaaa. Hoping for an Indian summer lol
so today off to do the vibration plate exercises, a little shopping then back to bed for a snooze for shifts tonight
Have a good day all xxx
Café latte - oatmeal - chilli/mushrooms- jelly mint chocolate
café latte for morning
