Morning all [glowers]

Here's the spreadsheet once again

Hope you all had a good week and that it shows on the scales! It's a tricky time of year as we head towards Christmas, with all sorts of lovely goodies to tempt us.

But only three more weeks to go! Still time to lose another 5 or 6lbs ...

good luck everyone

Thanks, I dont usually have left overs that I could have for breakfast. I don't cook much, usually a lot of pasta really, so I'll need to think of some easy low carb meals.

I'll start tomorrow, as today was invited to in laws for Sunday dinner. Still not sure about breakfast though. Will I be ok having one coffee with steamed milk in the morning as that's my treat for the day? !

My plan for the day is:

B: coffee with cream, mushroom omelette
L: cream of celery soup, cucumber sticks, wee bit of cheese
S: FF yog
D: lamb chop with garlic, asparagus and broccoli

Have had some 'stuff' to deal with but feeling better now and so motivated to kick the ass out of this for the last few weeks. See there are a few of us catching up.

Posted too soon,

Quick and simple so will be a bit boring to post. A roast joint to last several days with dressed salad or veg lots of left overs and eggs is what I predict.

Going back to carrying catch up on the thread now.

I appear to have lost an inch off my waist even though I had a day off LCing.

I have a night shift tonight at a book printing factory so will be eating carbs as we are only allowed to eat dry things there as there are no breaks, you just eat when nothing is coming down the conveyor belt.

I've stayed the same (or even put a pound on, need to check spreadsheet). Have eaten no carbs except allowed veg but haven't had enough water.

Worse still, I'm teetering between 17.0 and 17.1. Was hoping to get under 17 this week. Boo.

There's a set of scales at work which I just used to weigh myself. According to them, I have lost 7kg. I do not look or feel like I have lost 7kg. I think that they are broke . Unless I am remebering my weight from the GP's weigh in wrong.
