Up at the crack of dawn again! OH is working early this week.
He was off yesterday and forgot to go to asda, so whilst I have my salad, tomatoes and cucumber, I have no protein!
I am going to boil some eggs into it and pick up some chicken chunks on the way into work

Food!
Porridge with 1tsp Honey HEXB and 1 Syn.
Mixed salad, tomatoes, cucumber and 2 slices boiled eggs. Chicken to be added! I am also taking some no added sugar squash to work to stop me drinking as much coffee!! I can imagine that these next few weeks are going to be a bit hard, particularly as I'm on holiday W/C 24th October, and even though I have said I've been on holiday and popped into a class in the past, I'm in Edinburgh and I'm not going to go at all. (Eek)
My friend has also given me a huge bag of Size 12 clothes!! Can't wait to have a look
Yesterday at group, we got given a bauble to bring home and think about our Christmas gift to ourselves. I've stuck mine on my fridge- thought it was a lovely idea!! My consultant also gave me a free magazine for helping her out which looks fab for this month.
My bauble is on my fridge
Have a wonderful day everyone!!

What a lovely gesture from your parents, and it's such a fantastic idea, especially for you and your oh.

Not terribly, not great! I can't seem to get my food under control but I have exercised lots so at least one thing is going right

Do you maybe think it's because you're exercising and need some more fuel? Maintaining is great, well done! How did the jeans shopping go??

Love the jumper! Looks really cosy!
It didn't in the end! I totally ran out of time! But there's always tomorrow!

I think you might be right- I need more protein for definite but as I don't eat much meat I struggle to get it in. Maybe more eggs.

The jumper's so cute! And I am drooling over your dessert... I can't believe I forgot to take my lunch with me, then totally lost track of time! Dinner's nearly done now, which is a good thing.
Jeans are a funny one! I'm in an M&S 12 - but you can guarantee I'm closer to a 16 in a lot of places! You won't know until you try.
Poppet - cottage cheese is a good one, if you like that? I have been known to (fairly regularly....) eat a whole large tub!! x

Oh yes I do like cottage cheese actually- I didn't think of it as a protein source but of course it is. Nice on ryvita!
I made a list last night- well it was more of a grid. I had 4 sections: When do I do well, and how can I maintain it. When do I go wrong, and how can I fix it.
The answers seem so simple on paper- essentially I need to stock my freezer better and make more use of my slow cooker!
I'm away this weekend so it seems a bit daft to try straight away (I don't want a fridge full of fresh food to spoil) but when I get back I'm going to try and incorporate it and see if it makes a difference.
I found an old pair of jeans that my mum bought for me ages ago- need to try them on, they're a 12 I think so will see how that goes. Shopping, without the shopping! Lol x

I think your list sounds really good, definitely a good idea to wait until you've been away but you sound really prepared and focused!
Let us know how the jeans go! I'm sure you will be fine though
Hope you've had a lovely day!
