Hello losers! Lovely day again today.
The thing with MFP and carb counts is that it is an American site, and they include fibre, or something, in the carb count, so you need the net carbs, not total carbs. Or something like that. I always try and add the British entries, tesco, Sainsburys, etc., as that gives the 'proper' counts. Not that I count carbs, but when I did to make sure I was mostly in the right sort of amount.
Still at 74.9kg today, after a carby weekend of wine, a piece of almond and plum cake, and a chicken casserole made for me, which I absolutlely wasn't prepared to pick through to remove the pasta, potatoes and carrots! But, I am the cautionary tale of what happens when you're the thinnest you've been since having babies. I had forgotten how enormous my teeth look in a smaller face. I am, currently, all teeth and ears. Great. But despite scales not moving, am still shrinking, in places that low cal never touched, namely belly and upper arms! Friends yesterday were very complimentary and even had a dropped jaw!
Off on holiday this week, so checking out for two weeks, and will be back for the
LBD bootcamp. About to mark place.
Just to say, once again, that I could not have had the success I've had with this woe without the support, recipes, information and general luffliness one these threads. So, thank you all. I am taking all my new clothes, including swimmers, on holiday, and shall be delighted to wear them.
Have a great couple of weeks, and onwards and downwards!
