Keep, there's a low-carb boot camp kick-start on the Bootcamp threads - think it's 3 days of super low carb and it tells you exactly what to eat. Would that help - diets which spell out exactly what you can have, no choice?

Golden day! 1150 cals, Shred done! This was to make up for the cheesecake fest of Fri and Sat. FX for kind scales tomorrow!

FreeNiki · 09/04/2017 20:54

ive been bad today
sweets and ice cream etc

Squiffy01 · 09/04/2017 21:45

Glad I'm not the only one that has been bad today. Probably the only one that has been crying about it though Blush. I'm so down about it all lately.
Still reading all the posts even if not posting as much. X

koko & stellar I'd be up for that, I've done dukan before & it really worked for me but is tough. I was digging out something to wear in the sunshine yesterday & last summers big clothes were too tight Shock I said to Dh I needed to go to an old fashioned fat farm as I clearly can't get any control myself.
squiffy don't cry about it, poor you. At the end of the day I feel it's only me that can make the changes. It's hard but if i want it enough wether for health or vanity reasons, I've got to be strict to make it happen. Drinking in the sunshine & social events will have to be sacrificed if I'm not going to lose & regain same old lbs, I'm too short (& old it seems) to be able to eat healthily for a couple of weeks & drop half a stone, sigh!

HairsprayBabe · 10/04/2017 08:21

Morning all 11.3 so not too bad all things considered!

We hare having Tuna and Borlotti beans from Nigella Express for dinner.

FluffyClouds2017 · 10/04/2017 09:15

Sounds like a yummy dinner Hairspray.

10.9 here which makes me -4 for the month so far.

Pretty pleased with that as it comes after weeks of being 'good' and not loosing much/staying the same.

Now I just have to navigate Easter and all the nice food that awaits to try and loose or stay the same for next week.

If anyone can pass any tips my way on how to do that I'd be very grateful!

Just caught up on everyone - wahey for the lowest weight ever BOOP and the summer dress victories! Everyone's been absolutely smashing it at the exercise!

Thank you for thinking of me BOOPles Flowers I was at the theatre on Thurs and Fri for Harry Potter, then it was my mum's birthday on Saturday, so I just ate and ate for four days solid Grin Extreme fast day today, hoping to rack up loads of steps and eat the vegetable drawer this evening in order to clear it out before we fly on Wednesday. What will become of me on holiday, do we think? My damage limitation plans include trying to have 4 or 5 days out of the 13 we're there where I eat very light and healthily during the day and only have G&T if we're drinking in the evening. Not hoping to lose obviously, but it would be nice if my post-holiday weigh-in didn't make me want to cry...

BitOutOfPractice · 10/04/2017 11:38

Hello Quim lovely to see you Thanks

If you manage to crack the holiday damage limitation thing, tell me how. I'm always full of good intentions...that just evaporate in the sun...

i looked up the ubercamp and they don't have a veggie one, plus I hate hate hate mushrooms!

I read an article in cosmo where a woman did the keto diet and just ate the same 3 meals everyday for a month to keep her macros in check.

I still have that stupid UTI so I have to shlump off to the Drs for some antibiotics later EURGH!

BitOutOfPractice · 10/04/2017 12:26

Oh hairspray you need to get that sorted. Hope the doc can see you right

What shall I have for lunch?

Don't worry BOOP I have just terrified myself with Dr Google so am 100% going to the clinic after work.

QuimReaper · 10/04/2017 12:59

You could join me in a virtuous green smoothie lunch BOOP? Enticing, I know Grin

lastqueenofscotland · 10/04/2017 13:35

Hope your feeling better boop!
Getting through another golden day
Apple for breakfast
Small brown roll, tiny bit of cheese and some carrot sticks at lunch
Doing a session on the track later
whole meal pasta with pesto, brocolli and salad later

I can't do super low cal and just don't run very well on no/low carb so trying to fit this in with being a half decent distance runner

Softpebbles · 10/04/2017 13:48

Grapefruit for breakfast, small banana mid morning

Lunch was homemade lentil soup with some baked ham in it

Dinner is salad with stone baked 'posh' pizza! So not exactly diet friendly, but feel guilty telling BF that I won't eat it.

Have a small apple and pear on my desk to get me through the afternoon!

Quim have a great holiday - its deserved.

Hairspray get the to the docs.

BitOutOfPractice · 10/04/2017 14:32

I'm feeling fab queenie Grin

Erm.. quim, as tempting as that doesn't sounds, I seem to have accidentally eaten a prawn salad and raspberry jelly by mistake instead. Soz! Wink

10.9.5 this morning - not bad! Should come in under 500 cals today so hoping for good stuff tomorrow.

My twin sister divulged her weight today - 8.11! Woe.

QuimReaper · 10/04/2017 22:20

That sounds MUCH nicer BOOP! Jolly virtuous menu there too lasty.

My day didn't go entirely to plan - I ended up, for absolutely no good reason, buying a load of chicken and shoving it down me instead of emptying the veg drawer as I intended, and now I'm going to have to throw it all out and I'm already feeling guilty about it Blush

In other news I have a mani-pedi lined up for tomorrow, and I have two verrucas and I had to borrow my mum's flip flops on Saturday and the toe bit took all the skin off my toe Blush Will they gag and refuse to fix me?!
