dislexicicecream - will try the karvol tonight

Didn't try the karvol as didn't have any :rolleyes:

Had a crap nights sleep, 5th night of coughing, they don't normally last this long Got a cracking headache, hopefully will feel better later, got the MiL's 60th birthday tonight.

Hope everyone has a good weekend

Hows it going everyone?
I didnt drink last night...yay. That means no burger on way home, and no fry up this morning.
Still I havnt been great today so far, but im thinking if I stop now I can redeem myself.
So far Ive had a chilli with brown rice. A white roll with low fat spread and peanut butter. Also a pack of those corn crisps 100 cal a bag ones. So bad but not too bad if I just have cereal for dinner or something????????
What do we reckon? Under 2000 cals or not?

Sorry to hear your still unwell Mrs Fish. Hope you recover soon....

Have another quesion.
Ive just changed pill, been on it for a week and a half and ive been having a bit of spot bleeding the past couple of days. Any ideas on what this could be?

Definitely under 2000 calories, depending on how much chilli and rice you had, I would reckon you had about 1000-1200 at the most, so redeem it with a light dinner you should be ok.

If I eat 2000 cals a day I put weight on I have dieted so much in the past for me to lose weight now I have to eat less than 1300 a day.

BlB,

When I went back on the pill after having ds I spotted for the first 12 weeks (I have the cont inj which has to be done every 12 weeks) I had my 2nd jab a few weeks ago and I haven't had any spotting. I'd give it until you are due your next pack and then discuss it with your GP.

I haven't done too bad today - my food hasn't been great:-
Breakfast - peanut butter and jam on toast
Lunch - Cheese on toast

BUT Dh and I have just taken dd and ds for a bike ride so at least I've done some excercise AND this is the first weekend for weeks that I haven't touched a drop of the old vino! We are planning on getting a Indian tonight though so that may undo the goodness of the bike ride.

My gym review went really well, my BNMI is down to 27% which is about normal. My fitness level had gone up to 37 (apparently 30/35 is good and 40 is excellent) My gym instructor actually told me not to try and loose too much more weight - she said another 8Ibs at the most which is about what I was aiming for anyway.

Hope everyone else is having an OK weekend - this is the first weekend for ages I haven't been too scared to post!

I used to be on microgynon it was good but I started getting bad headaches, my doc put me on yasmin. Which has been good, no headaches but now ive started bleeding. Suppose my body needs to get used to it.

Hi everyone

Was very good last n1ght food-wise but had far, far too much wine (had to make the most of granny sleeping over!) So very badly hungover. Haven't managed to eat anything today yet, just endless cups of tea. But dh has gone out for some takeaway so will prob make up for it now.

Good morning

Well went out with good intentions last night for MiL's 60th b'day party. Was intending to drive so wouldn't be tempted by booze... had offer couldn't refuse though, a lift home and ds taken out for the day today... so I got absolutely slaughtered on the free veuve cliquot and a stonking rioja. Got in at 3am up at 7.30, ds just been whisked away by our babysitter till 3pm. Feel as rough as a rough thing on a rough day, getting worse by the minute, just thought I would have a quick look here and check in.

Now I'm going back to bed for a bit See ya later.

Hi Mrs Fish, if any consolation that's exactly how I was feeling yesterday - sounds like you had a good night out.
I went totally overboard on some nice gran reserva rioja and a few whiskeys so you can only imagine the hangover (not to mention the cringing about my mad dancing at the disco we went too after our meal )

Well, didn't go back to sleep, but it was nice to just lie in bed and nurse the hangover without having to entertain ds. I would hate to count how many calories I had yesterday, probably a good 3 days worth going by how I feel today

Well today is another day, need to be very very good now but my tummy is rumbling something rotten

Sounds like you've both had fun this weekend.
Loopity thats why im not drinking for a while, im still cringing over the way I was 2 weeks ago.. no drinking for me untill christmas.
Im going out for lunch today, hope I see something healthy low fat and tasty on the menu...yeh right! I cant see that happening.
Im trying to put off going for as long as poss, that way if I eat later I wont be as hungry at dinner time and can just have cereal or something light like that.

Hi everyone

Not eating properly at all this weekend - Is it possible to still be hungover from Friday night??? Anyway, so far today I have eaten a small broccoli quiche and four (yes, four ) of those "extremely chocolatey" choc minirolls from M+S. Dear oh dear!!!

I've eaten nothing but bread today, 6 slices of nimble (45 cals a slice) with lemon curd, pizza for tea 3 (small) slices, and 5 onion rings

Was trying to be good too seeing as how many cals I must have had yesterday. I still feel quite delicate, not done much today other than sit on my lard arse watching telly. Another heavy weekend looms next weekend and the week after and the week after, in fact we have a 'do' on every sat till xmas now. Can't see me losing the 10lbs for xmas.

gues what MrsFish - so have I! as i was starving this morning

had my usual brekkie - weetabixs with ss milk and about 4 pieces of toasts!!
Tea - Sweetcorn mushroom and chicken latte with chips and garden peas (got nothing else in!)

snacks - well ive finished all my thorntons and Roses choccs (i did share) but feeling sssoooo guilty!! and oranges

hi everyone,
Today I have eaten
A bowl of wheatabix for brekki
Steak and ale pie with 2 potatos and some crambury sauce and some red cabage (went to the carvery).
Havnt eaten dinner and Im not going to. Im hoping if I dont eat anything else the pie wont be as damaging to the diet.
I love m&s chocolate mini rolls, infact I love all m&s food. Cant go in there because I over indulge when I do... just cant control myself.

Sorry I always seem to slip up with the posting over the weekend, well blb you were right about the battery not being in the pedometer properly, got that sorted and have been averaging around 9.5 and 10,000 steps since Friday, thats with doing the usual stuff and all the gardening I have been doing at the weekend.
Food wise I have been pretty good, sticking to usual fruit for brekkie and 2weetabix with s smilk for lunch,Friday night had very small portion of beef strogonoff and two glasses of red!, saturday night, rogan josh with rice AND bombay pots, 2 glasses of red! but I did control porton size!! and a full roast for tea tonight, with loads of veg and only 1 pot.
Hope u all have had a good weekend!

biglilbuba - the pill thing could be because microgynon has slightyl different combinations of hormones to yasmin and so quite common to spot on/off urregularly for up to 6 weeks , but should settle down if you never had probs with microgynon. diet wise dreadful weekend 2 3 course meals with loads of wine and yesterday 3 choclate crackle cakes and coffee with sugar and tuna and mayo subway ....cannot face scales.

Morning all

Finally recovered from the weekend but stilll a bit tired. Think I'm getting too old now for these late nights out. Normally drink no more than 2-3 glasses of wine at a time so really can't handle it next day if I go over that.

Back to healthy eating today, had a sneaky weigh this morning and if I can keep it up until thurs I may show a small loss (must have all those cals burnt off on the dance floor )

So no nonsense this week - will be eating my five fruit and veg portions, no junk, no wine until at least the weekend, or longer would be nice -

How's everyone else today?

Thanks mummydoc. Its almost as if my body keeps trying to start an af then when I take the pill it stops till the next day. Bit anoying.
Had a nice lie in this morning, dp has taken ds out as he didnt have work today..
Feel really refreshed.
So far today is going well. Im half way through my 2liters of water. Helps me stay fuller for longer.
Any ideas on what I should cook for dinner tonight? Im all out of ideas...

Hi Blb

I'm making a chicken curry, throwing in lots of extra veg and having that with boiled rice. Just been for big long walk with pram and toddler. Feel like I'm getting back on track again diet-wise.

Good well done. Walks help alot I find. Take mind off food!
Chicken curry would be lovely but dp detests curry. I hate it because the smell even makes him feel sick so im not even alowed it unless he's out .
Any other ideas? Want to cook something nice we can all have thats not fattening....just can not think for the life of me...

Forgot to post steps yesturday. I did about 10000 think slightly more.
