Morning all!!! The chipper upbeatness continues - it's so wonderful to wake up with a smile, after such an awful year - but I've definitely come through the other side. Really miss my friend but I had a lovely dream about her last night, I just know she would approve 100% of all the positive changes I'm making in my life

L - ham pieces and salad (mayo 3 tbsp - 1 1/2), yogurt and fruit
D - chilli pesto pasta (pesto 3 tbsp - 9)

Thank you sweetie - I am loving it - but I guess that is sort of obvious
Change to the dinner menu - I put the dishwasher on with my only big saucepan in it oops, so no pasta - had a WW pitta with puree and cheese. But I still feel hungry, might zap some pork in the George

That's true Chezzie, I love George
Morning all! I've been taking 5-HTP tablets to help me relax and sleep at night and i must say i am waking up only once during the night now (loo) and then again about 7am, feeling really refreshed - that, plus no grog and better eating habits, and it's starting to show! A work colleague asked me if I'd lost weight and said I looked the picture of health! Knees are sore today though, wonder if it's the cold? I need some of that Italian heat on them!
Had to get really organised today - working right through until 10pm, we've got a big music comp in central London, so brought all my food with me
B - banana on a small brown roll, grapefruit, coffee
L - green soup (and another roll (6), yogurt, fruit
D - turkey salad, banana, yogurt
Noticed I put 2lbs on in my sneaky WI today (I'd lost an extra 5lb since Monday night), so am upping the veg, especially spinach, that really helps me lose. i know you're not supposed to weigh in every day but it's such a boost - and I like knowing straight away if there's a gain so I cam amend the meals accordingly. If I lose 5lbs I'll be so happy - that's the target i gave the class, and it'll be my first stone!

What a lovely boost! Hope you're home and tucked away from the cold now!
HAve taken your advice and bought some slim noodles etcetc (those that are 8odd calories per portion) to give them a go. You can't beat such low calories! x

LOL no I got the avatar off the web somewhere ages ago - just love it - it's a Batcat
My own beastie is zzzzzzzzz on the sofa, but I did find a pic of her when she was just a little 'un, so cute!
Forgot to say - I passed a little test last night - I LOVE canapes, and I said NO to six different types and wine

It's made from scan bran - which is cardboard masquerading as crispbread - so it's carrot cake but not as we know it Chezzie Loads of recipes for different types of scan bran cakes and cookies, will give the toffee microwave version a go today, and report back. Also going to make the chicken kiev today (filled with quark and parsley) so I've got something nice for tomorrow night.
Must have slept really soundly because my left hip is sore! WI shows the early week loss disappearing - I think it's carbs and all the syns personally, and I know I haven't been eating as much fruit and veg with each meal as I should - so it' a couple of days of SP for me, fruit and veg, protein and miracle noodles, try and boost a last minute loss before official WI tomorrow night.
On the plus side, I've been a non smoker for two weeks!
B - fruit salad and yog and lots and lots of tea
L - cottage cheese, spinach and courgette quiche
D - veg soup and a brown roll, more fruit salad
S - Scan bran toffee cake

Hope the scales come good tomorrow night
The key is trying to get your 1/3 speed on every plate, I think I probably have more than that most of time but do have plenty of carbs and Syns as well
Let me know how you get on with the cake. I made a carrot one once - it looked ok but I only ate one mouthful. Had hideous sweetner aftertaste. I keep meaning to try again perhaps with a different sweetner. Might have inspired me to find thread on here regarding best sweetners

Yep it's the speed foods I've been bad on...:coponthat's me telling myself off, not you Shelley lol).
A productive morning - laundry all done, quiche made and kievs in the oven - food pics below. Had 1/4 of the quiche with some iceberg lettuce, a grated carrot and two cherry tomatoes. And yummy on the kiev front - they are a bit fiddly and messy but I just had a bit to make sure it was cooked through and it was well worth it!
Does anyone have a mandolin to cut veg and if so what's the verdict? I keep thinking I'd like to make coleslaw but can't be bothered to grate anything (and I always end up with grated fingers too!).
