Good going Darcy!
I will try your method for scrambled eggs - I cooked in the hot pan method as it says on the pack. I think the microwave is a better option. I really want to get the eggs right as this is the closest something I would usually eat.

It's stopped raining, and the sun is shining

Need to get on with the Spring cleaning - yesterday was a bit of an idle day

Fingers crossed for weigh in tomorrow

 

[aloize]

How are you doing today Darcy?

 

[aloize]

oops just reads your update-more tidying. I think I may go for a walk in the lovely sunshine.

 

[Darcy15]

Busy day cleaning - all of the upstairs done now

Fingers crossed now for weigh in tomorrow

 

[Darcy15]

Well, only 1lb down today

.........must admit to being disappointed after being busy all week and absolutely TS

Still, maybe a whoosh is in the cards for next week!

Plan now is to finish the overtime I have outstanding

Have a good day one and all

 

[smidge87]

That is a shame when you've been so good!! Fingers crossed it's hormonal and it all catches up next week

 

[Darcy15]

Overtime just finished - phew!

 

[Darcy15]

1st of February

The start of another good Exante month!

 

[sybersadie]

1lb is better than nothing - it all adds up.

Very true Sadie

The sun is finally making an appearance!

Inside the house has all been Spring cleaned, so might have a go at the garden in a bit

Remaining TS 100% and pleased with that

 

[sybersadie]

I have sun shining in my window and it's lovely.

I see you have had a busy morning Darcy!

My gardening will have to wait as I am at work. If Saturday is sunny and dry I am planning a bit of garden tidy-up, will have to see what the weather is doing.

Yes Sadie, I've had a busy day - but very rewarding

My house is spotless top to bottom, and the garden tidy

I'm going to spend the rest of my holiday relaxing I think

Darcy you are such an inspiration to me! I've been gradually trying to catch up on this thread and your determination amazes and motivates me!

Wow Darcy, have had a read at your diary and I must say I am in awe in how you hang in there! Definitely will be following your diary as I'll be on here for a while. Have serious weight to shift! It's surprising how the closer I get to goal, the more I let people's comments get to me (oh that's enough, you look good, you've lost so much weight it's not good for your health...- what? whereas being overweight is?) and I start dibble dabbling.
This time I want to get to goal just for me - like, just to prove to myself I can! I'm not setting a date as I have a very busy life, which I think will take the pressure off. Anyway, I'm impressed by your weight loss. I've recently switched from CWP to Exante, mainly due to boredom (the "food" isn't terribly exciting) but I hope my losses will be the same (3-5lbs a week usually)
Anyway - subscribing I am!
PS - I tried the egg bacon and cheese the other day - in a pan - ewww, it was mealy, I have so many of them as I'm a savory person but I'm scared to try again

Aw, that's so very kind of you to say

With all my ups and downs I never thought I'd be an inspiration to anyone!

Thank you so much

It's so true about people's comments!

At my lowest weight before - 185lbs - so many people said 'oh, you don't need to lose any more'

....but I was still 5 stone above a normal BMI

I hope you enjoy Exante. There is such a wide choice now - so much more than when I started this journey - embarrassingly in 2011

Try the eggs again, but with more water added, beaten well and nuked in the microwave at 30 second intervals

.....my new favourite pack, along with apple crumble

 

[sybersadie]

Have a good day Darcy

 

[Darcy15]

Have a good day Darcy

Thank you Sadie

I've run out of things to clean........so undecided how to spend my day

I'm loving this holiday at home lark, and don't want to go back to work!
