Afternoon all.

Really sorry for starting the new thread so late - I had an early start this morning, and travel problems meant I didn't have to time to set this up before my first meeting.

Anyway, here's the spreadsheet.

Good luck in this last week!

How is everyone feeling on last day of bootcamp? Sentimentally looking back on the last few weeks of celeriac filled adventures...?

Today's food:

B: cheesy scrambled eggs and half protein roll
L: erm... 4 chocolate truffles
D: will be roast celeriac, cauliflower cheese with camembert sauce, brocolli and a few carrots

Must stop the chocolate slippage, especially cheap, crap, milk chocolate which was just not worth it.

Good luck tomorrow everyone.

BrassicaBabe · 17/12/2017 12:36

I managed to avoid the carbs with dinner last night. I had a creamy muscle gratin. So a little bread crumb on top along with a finger of garlic bread. Then steak with salad instead of chips. I ate one onion ring and gave the others to DH.

Today I have a migraine which means another day of fighting the carb urge.

Fridays sighting of 10.4 was also fleeting. Hey ho.

prettybird · 17/12/2017 12:36

Last night was the final of Strictly so I was at a friend's having a wee "Strictly BitchPod" Party. As we had to be able to bitch comment constructively of course Wink throughout, finger food was de rigeur.

I managed to keep to low carb choices throughout - probably too many pistachios, chorizo bites and chicken wings.

I'll gloss over the plum gin cocktail (home made plum gin from the Victoria plums in our garden, topped up with Cava) Gin but I only had one followed by multiple top ups of prosecco Xmas Blush

Starting an egg fast tomorrow for 4 days to try to get the last 2.25lb off so I can see the 11 somethings by Christmas Xmas Grin

Hello everyone, this link to lchf resources was tweeted by a guy called Nick Pearson, who is the CEO of parkrun. I’ve not looked in detail yet but it seems to be a mix of books and websites from a variety of sources - t.co/qIh9jFEQbm. Never posted a link so I hope it works!

Grimbles · 17/12/2017 20:43

Was a bit of a carby twat today. Have had a slice of cheesecake, a couple of profiteroles and a few crisps .

Of course being as tomorrow is the final weigh in I'll have gained a few lbs already!

Kleptronic · 17/12/2017 20:46

Don't fret Grimbles. I haven't been a carby twat at all, and still put a pound on. It's all randomly this way and that way in this game.

OldBooks · 17/12/2017 21:39

Hello bootcampers, tis I, OldBooks. I rather dropped off the threads a few months back. Still confronting emotional eating issues - had a stressful few weeks and just fell badly off wagon. Since then have been on a 70:30 ratio of sticking to it: carby twatdom. Have also not had much time for MN, trying to get on with studying has been taking up all my energy and time in evenings!

Anyhow I will be KOKOing, I have not lost anything recently but I have not gained anything either so I am in a sort of limbo until I get back in the game. Will try to get back onto the threads as I miss the support.

Wombat very sorry to read your news above Flowers
