Helloooo! What's with all the thigh measuring? No way I'm goin' there sistah!

Relatively good day for me, even returned a bag of crisps to the cupboard and swapped them for a low fat rice pot. Am having a sneaky vodka or two, after a week of abstinence - top tip for spirit drinkers, put ice and mixer in first and pour alcohol on top. The flavour stays in the ice all the way to the bottom, so you keep the taste.

TheCrackFox · 11/01/2013 20:41

I'm not drinking this month but when I resume drinking I will keep it for the weekend and stick to a couple of vodka and slim line so thanks for your top tip SupermanEats.

Just a quick word of earning regarding MFP, a lot of the entries are incomplete. I'm sure everyone is checking them anyway but thought I say just in case.

The pasta sauce I had today, for example, scanned as a completely different make and when I looked at the nutritional breakdown all they'd entered was the total calories, nothing else at all. Nice try!

I'd initially entered a normal sized portion and was properly chuffed. When I entered the details correctly I hastily changed my mind. I ended up with 2 sodding tablespoons of it and still went over on fat Sad

CarriedAwayAnnie · 11/01/2013 21:03

I can't find the scanner on the app. Is it not available on the android version?

Lizzylou · 11/01/2013 21:14

Have achieved Nirvana and matched calories/consumed calories.
Actually I did spend longer on Just Dance so poss could be bit wrong.

I am v hourglass. Though waist has widened. Used to have small waist, big hips, big top of thighs, legs slim from mid thigh down. Now a bit more blurry round the edges.

PoohBearsHole · 11/01/2013 21:22

I have messed up today.

Dh stayed at home and tooke me for lunch.

Got pissed off by a family member so opened the vion

cant even think about how over I am on calories Sad

DoubleMum · 11/01/2013 21:30

Don't worry PoohBear, start afresh tomorrow.

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 21:38

I used to have an android phone don't think it did have the scanner, or if it did I didn't find it!

It's only the same info you get by searching though and tbh I think the scanner on my shiny new iPad is pissed. It's like some sort of crystal maze challenge getting it to point in the right direction!

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 21:47

Yeah, don't beat yourself up pooh. It's only one day.

Have a manly punch to your chubby arm and get back on it tomorrow x

CarriedAwayAnnie · 11/01/2013 21:49

It's gonna happen to all us at some point poohbear - try not to dwell on it.

Back on it tomorrow

Thanks Randall, at least I can stop looking for it now!

juneybean · 11/01/2013 21:55

CarriedAwayAnnie the scanner for android - when you go to add the food there's a barcode image next to the "search for food" click that and it'll turn the camera on

Notfootball · 11/01/2013 22:14

Jeez I can't stop snacking on sweet shit. The last 3 days I've been under my calories but the snacks I'm eating are bad news. Cakes-a-freaking-go-go.

CarriedAwayAnnie · 11/01/2013 22:35

juneybean - Thank you Thanks

RavenVonChaos · 11/01/2013 22:35

Can I join in?

Got a massive belly. Trying to calorie count and only eat when hungry. Had to watch DP get pissed tonight while I sipped water.

Anyway I reckon I need some support as getting to day 10 and feeling like I need to rebel...

DeafLeopard · 11/01/2013 22:54

Don't rebel Raven - you are only cheating yourself, and you while you may feel good during your rebellion, an hour later you will be kicking yourself for it.

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 23:00

Ok chiefs, quick question. I haven't been food shopping at all so am just eating what I've already got but smaller portions and no snacks. Exactly the same food I normally eat.

So why the ever loving fuck am I a giant ball of gas and air?

I'm properly bloated and and farting like a trooper. Not horrible smelly ones, proper big loud airy trumpety ones.

This must be stopped, I'm meant to be going out tomorrow!

aJumpedUpPantryBoy · 11/01/2013 23:07

Randall - I don't know the answer but the same thing has happened to me. DH thought it was the dog earlier but it was actually me.

PoohBearsHole · 11/01/2013 23:11

I feel relatively ok about it, my wine is still the first glass and wasn't huge, my snack was a bath oliver biscuit with quark (suprisingly nice!) and about 5 tangfastics Hmm and for lunch I made relatively good choices - dried meats and fish with a sauce and I didn't eat the chips (did eat some yummy bread) and some cheese - still to log it as until I do am kidding myself Grin

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 23:11

Thank Christ for that!

Not that I'm glad your arse is exploding too, but glad I'm not a complete freak!

Maybe it's the space I normally fill with food, now it's just full of air instead.

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 23:14

I'll bet if you log it pooh it won't be as bad as you think.

Just log it completely honestly and take the hit. We're all in this for the long haul remember, don't starve yourself to make up for it.

aJumpedUpPantryBoy · 11/01/2013 23:14

Sounds feasable - he's worked out it isn't the dog - don't think I'll be getting lucky tonight! I was hoping to burn some extra calories...

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 23:16

Blimey no, bouncing around would not help!

DeafLeopard · 11/01/2013 23:23

Could it be that you are drinking more water - you are drinking more water aren't you?

So the water is aiding your digestive system along a bit?

RandallPinkFloyd · 11/01/2013 23:34

Tbh the only healthy thing about me is that I always drink loads of water.

I don't drink tea or coffee and am not keen on squash or pop. Water is actually my drink of choice.

I haven't bothered logging it on MFP because its just not something I think about, I easily get through 3-4 pints a day because most days its all I drink.

MaureenShit · 12/01/2013 00:11

I love the scanner
