to have eaten the following to far today....

[poopscoop]

4 slices toast and marmite

1 apple

4 slices toast and pate

3 chelsea buns?

Reasonable or nay?

very very reasonable, there's fruit in there

you are joking, yes

Now AIBU to wander around with my stomach so bloated that i have undone my shorts and let it all hang out?

i have eaten an entire tray of backlava

YABU if you can eat all that and still wear shorts

Very reasonable. You've plenty of day left to burn it off. Breakfast like a king.....

depends. did you have butter or marg on your toast?

if you have marg YABVU, yuk

Dont worry i have eaten
One banana
One creamy Cappucino
4 thick slices of wholewheat toast with butter
Marmalade... LOTS ...my favourite !

And its only 2.10pm ..so dam!! , what else will i stuff down later ?????????

As for yesterday i noshed :-

tropical crunch
Bran Flakes
Cappucino
Sandwich...Egg and Cress
Fruit Smoothie
2 small mini chocolate bars
i pear
1 satsuma
1 banana
chilli mince
potatoes
carrots
vanilla icecream ...LOTS
1 slice pizza

I haven't had anything yet. But I'm going to have 2 sausages,from the local butchers with a fried egg, freerange of course, soon.

And now I want baklava.

I will add , with my HALO overhead for a very short split second i am a fitness instructor and have taught a legs bums tums this a.m. and have another one to teach tonight at 6.15pm....Exercise gets you hungry and does burn it off.. but hey, yes, i can be a pig !!

I have eaten:

4 slices fruit bread, 3 of which were toasted, one was shovelled in gob whilst waiting for others to toast

Cheese 'n' coleslaw 'n' butter (mmmm dairy fats) sandwich, layers interwoven with crisps

Almond Magnum
Nuts

Please note fruit bread counts as one of my 5 a day.

I am achingly aware of the chocolate orange cake I made yesterday, sitting in the cake tin. Could potentially be another of my 5 a day, if marmalade counts as a 'fruit'.

My fridge is full to bursting with local, organic fruits and vegetables. And yet I eat crisps and Magnums.

So no, OP, YANBU

vinegar - Butter and lashings of it, never touch marg.

As for the shorts, they are those sort of combat ones, long to the knee and a size bigger than i am, so hides cellulite. Deffo not the short shorts!

maltesers - could you recommend some sort of exercise that burns loads of calories which can be done from a sitting/slumped position?

TIA

@ poopscoop's exercise request

I think that's quite restrained myself. Distinct lack of chocolate which is very commendable. Well done.

I've had a cheese and tomato toastie and a packet of wotsits.

For a bit of fruit I am contemplating three jaffa cakes.

I've had

last night's gammon with an egg on and mushrooms and toast for breakfast

a banana

two ginger crunch creams

a jammy dodger

about 27 grapes

a coffee and a red bull

and I wonder why I can't shift the muffin top.

ffs!

right whilst slumped here with chelsea bun bloat, i have thought up a new exercise. One twists one ankle clockwise 10 times then anti clock 10 times, then rest for an hour. Move onto other ankle.

Build it up slowly over the weeks, and then you will have fab ankles for the beach.

Build it up slowly over the weeks, and then you will have fab honed ankles for the beach. [Everyone will be so busy admiring them, they won't even bother to look an higher grin]

ooh what happened there, i do not know.

poopscoop the ankle exercise doesn't work when you're 41+ weeks pg.

I still have complete and utter 'thankles'. My DH is genuinely scared in case they 'pop'

aah yes so you just need those ted stockings that they give you in hospitals and you will have marvellous ankles without the workout

I prodded my left ankle with a knitting needle yesterday to demonstrate how swollen it was and he flinched and flung his hands up by his face.

pmsl - that is hilarious, just ell him to bring you chocolate, or 'the ankles are coming to get you'!!
