Snack - special K bar - 88 cals
Lunch - soup- 188 cals & fruit salad - 130 cals
Snack - special K bar - 84 cals

Total - 960 altogether, will be having a hot choc later tho at 37 cals so am still under 1000 for today.

Exercise - 20 min power walk & 10 mins on air walker.

I've been lucky these last 3 weeks in that I've lost 2lbs each week but I reckon now its going to slow down so I really need to up my cardio work. So Im going to join the gym next week - even tho I can't really afford it!. Going to try & go 4 times a week for 45 mins whilst im on my lunch break. Am also going to start doing more toning work on my legs & especially my belly as thats the place that jiggles the most lol.
Anyways bye for now

Thank heavens friday is nearly over & its finally the weekend :banana dancer: It has dragged sooo much!

Haven't done much exercise apart from 15 mins of Martine Mcutcheon dvd. Didn't want to over due it today as tomorrow Im taking the dogs on a 5 mile walk :chores016: so that should burn plenty of cals!

 

[xxtashaxx]

Today has been a horrible day, nothing to do with the diet, but theres a few things going on in my personal life that is just breaking my heart :cry:
So due to so many tears being shed today Im not too hungry,

Brekkie - 2 yogurts 164 cals
Lunch - ww bangers & mash 312 cals
Snack - 2 melba toasts 26 cals
Tea - 3 chicken drumsticks - 300 cals??

So thats a total of 802 cals will try top it up but just don't know if I can stomach any more food.

I've also been on a 6 mile walk this afternoon, not sure how many calories I burnt but hopefully a few.

Today is the 1st day in nearly 4 weeks that I have been tempted & sucumbed :sigh: my lovely gran had made me a chocolate cake to try & cheer me up, bless her. So I had to have some, but I had the tiniest slither.
Luckily tho even including the cake, I haven't gone over 1300 cals today so as long as I do some exercise tomorrow and not eat too much then I should be ok, fingers crossed x
