Size 10 screaming to get out!!

Good luck with the report writing! And make the most fo your walk in the sun if you can - unfortunately I am stuck behind a desk for the foreseeable! Might sneak out around 3pm ish if I can though!

Have a lovely Wednesday!
 
Aw thanks Sammeh. I'm breaking my own rule and having a quick sneaky peek on Minimins now whilst someone is making a CHEESE TOASTIE in the kitchen and the smell is driving me insane!! If I move further down the office then there is homemade TOFFEE CAKE which also smells divine. My tummy is rumbling like crazy today and it was last night too, much more so than usual?!! I'll have a yukky strawberry shake in a mo which will cheer me up no doubt!

I have a meeting at 1pm and a kid is coming into see me at 4pm and although I've done quite a bit of the report there's still LOADS to do....grrr.......

On the other hand, I have made a good start (staying positive!) and been good with water today hurrah :) xx
 
Heehee I've just said to a mate that I had to "eat my report" instead of "write my report"!! Food on the brain...x
 
God I'm starving today, no idea why as I haven't really been hungry at all. My tummy is actually hurting. Booooo.

Also I am again losing motivation on my report. Have done 8 pages though phew. Mikey bought me a Pepsi Max at lunchtime bless him but I can't drink it as it's got evil citric acid in :( x
 
Right, have brought the report home but have only just got back as I had chiropracter and Boo had to come and get me and now I'm procrastinating sitting on here and listening to Radio 6. I just had my dinner, yummy choccie shake :). Defo my fav. I am NOT having a slice of any meat tonight as it's weigh-in tomorrow. I am not looking forward to it as I know it will likely be 2-3 maybe 4 lbs at a push and not 12 or so!! Face looks thinner though, I'm not imagining it after all.

I have to make those muffins later and NOT lick the bowl out :( x
 
Good luck for weigh in tomorrow, i wont get on this til tomorrow night i dont think but will check in and see how you have done.

Also good luck making the muffins, dont think i could be as strong as you, my wee girl wants me to ake her truffles, had to tell her no! Maybe in a few weeks :) xx
 
I'm a massive knob. I have just spent a torturous time making the muffins carefully for Boo to take to work tomorrow. Used all the blueberries and white chocolate. Kept getting it on my fingers and only just managed to resist licking it off. Gave Boo the bowl to lick out with the spoon. He wanders down sheepishly and asks if I put the sugar in. Seemingly I just totally forgot the stupid caster sugar following the recipe!! WTF? So now they're cooking away, I can't remake them as I don't have the ingredients and they're going to taste like sh*t. I'm so annoyed and I haven't done anymore of the stupid report. GAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!

Anyone any ideas on how to rescue the muffins? I'm pretty desperate!! x
 
DRUM ROLL PLEASE.......................!!

I have lost a staggering NINE POUNDS in week one :D :D :D

I'm absolutely chuffed to naffing pieces. Nine lbs?????? On Cambridge I have only lost 2-3 lbs in the first week. Why????

The only things I can come up with are:
*I didn't have bars this week and always had the bars on Cambridge in week one even though you weren't meant to (have had a couple of sneaky slices of meat though....)
*I went for a massively long walk on Sunday and have walked to and from the chiropracters a couple of times.
*I have technically been on the diet 8 days not the usual 6 at Cambridge (don't usually start until the day after WI)
*Erm, Exante is better??

Who cares?? I'm happy :D. Hurrah!! Now to finish my report.....xx
 
WOW....... well done you!! You must be flippin chuffed with that :)
 
Long live Exante I say - cheaper and better (though sadly no chocolate mint flavour!!). x
 
Cheers guys :). I was a bit naughty yesterday and had two shakes a work then I was rushing around when I got back, had a big bit of chicken (clearly it doesn't impact on weight loss so I'm not gonna feel bad about it) and then, whoops, didn't have my third shake. Am starving today. Stood on scales this morning, which I wasn't going to do until Thursday (still couldn't quite believe loss so checking if it was still the same) and it said another TWO POUNDS lighter?? 11lbs in 10 days?? This is crazy. I'm almost scared by the weight loss!! As if my mum heard me think this she called and said she was surprising me and coming down tomorrow as I will be on my own for 2 nights and now I've promised to do a BBQ and I've agreed with myself I'm going to meat and a bit of salad. I mean, my BMI is under 25 now. The only problem is the marinades might take me out of ketosis.

Massive tidy up mission in the home now!!!!! xx
 
I have been tidying ALL day, Boo did the gardening before he went and there's still more hoovering to do! I will do it tomoz before mum comes. Sadly she's now going to see the dent in my car which I was hoping to get fixed before I saw her and that will no doubt sour the otherwise nice time :(.

I have made some homemade tandoori chicken breasts with yoghurt (that should be OK), pork with sundried tomato and basil marinade (probably bad), I have beef burgers (bad no doubt) and some Chinese pork burgers (definitely bad I reckon) and sausages (bad??). I hasten to add that there will be three of us!! Also have potatoes/spring onions/sweetcorn/peppers for potato salad (won't be having that), salad and a loaf of multiseed bread (now this has been sitting in the kitchen winking at me. Bread = my biggest weakness). I have made a rhubarb and ginger crumble as well but as mum's diabetic I don't really know why I made this as I've made way too much just for Carole!!! Sadly the second Boo went I felt immediately lonely and very bored and sorry for myself. I am not very good sometimes at entertaining myself, even though I lived on my own for a good 2 years. I'm restless. I am considering having a sausage but I can't actually be bothered to cook it anyway so laziness is a positive thing!! Very poor effort on the water today. Not been feeling 100%. Boo and I had a proper screming match type argument yesterday evening on the way back from the pub - the first one ever and the first one I've had in years. I don't want to mull on it. We've been fine today in that kind of "we're going to pretend none of that actually happened" way...

What should I do with myself?? x
 
:hug99::hug99:

and :drool: ya could've put a food porn alert in the title!! Plus I have been craving a Frankie and Bennys burger all day and your avator didn't help ;)

Hope you have a nice day with your mum and the car doesn't sour things too much

xxx
 
Aww thanks Toots. I have never had a Frankie and Bennys burger but am slightly put off that place by the incredibly loud music emanating from it!! Despite this, I have had a pizza there and I remember it being very large (even for me who used to regularly eat a 15" pizza at uni :eek:). God, I love pizza....

Should have put a food porn alert on soz. Yesterday at work I was "winding down" towards the end of the day and started looking at recipes online and getting really worked up!!! I just sit there telling the girl opposite me the kind of things I'd like to eat, I think she's sick of me!!

Mum just called again and said I've bought far too much haha!! I may have to get her to take any cold leftover meat back although she may have to wrestle me for it!! xx
 
My avatar is making me hungry as well now you mention it!! I tried to change it to a non-edible sunflower but it wouldn't accept the files for some reason so it'll have to stay...! x
 
Right FOOD PORN alert. Today I had a vanilla and a choccy shake, had a nice long walk round some gardens and then came back to:

Not so bad:
BBQ pork chop
BBQ small piece of tandoori chicken
One and a half pork sausages
A Chinese pork burger
Salad leaves with low fat dressing (don't know about this?)

Bad, bad, bad:
Half a corn on the cob
One tiny smidgen of a bite of Magnum white

Avoided sucessfully:
Potato salad
Bread
Wine
Rhubarb crumble (very nice apparently!)

Oh well, nevermind. Could have been worse. Unfortunately despite what everyone seems to think, when I've been not eating for a bit, it doesn't seem to make me eat any slower or make me full really quickly. If that was the case I would not have been able to eat all the above!! I have had an indecent amount of Dr Pepper Zero as well.

I weighed myself again this morning but have told myself I will not do this until Thursday as I can't keep weighing every day. I had lost ANOTHER POUND to 10 stone 1 lb but I'm not changing my ticker this time as I may find this has changed tomorrow, if indeed I was going to weigh myself. Maybe come Thursday I'll have put the 3lbs back on due to today's food? Actually, I feel a bit quesy now. It's been a nice day though :). Car boot tomorrow.

Hope everyone is having a lovely Easter xx
 
Lol loving the diary it's hilarious :D but just your avatar just makes me dribble looks so so tasty :)
Well done on your losses they are great especially for someone with such a low start weight :)
Well done
