(Diet bitter cranberry is my wine substitute for the month Grin )

I cleaned my fridge freezer today and sorted and logged all the food in the freezer so I have no excuse that I can't find anything, it's all listed.

I also cleaned the food cupboard and had to throw an embarrassing amount of food including flour, three different sugars, sauces etc and 18 tins of food, all out of date 😡

Still kept to my Angel Week, that's 6 days completed and it's weighin tomorrow. We all seem to be on track 😇 Go us!

Oops had a pub evening meal of burger and fries (though I did eat the salad with it), and a glass of wine. On a plus note, I did parkrun and skipped lunch so still under my calorie limit for the day! I would usually have had dessert so some improvement anyway. 10k race tomorrow morning to help run it off Grin

SpuriouserAndSpuriouser · 07/05/2017 09:57

Happy birthday Niki!

KOKO honestly I wish I knew how to manage weekends. They are my downfall too.

FreeNiki · 07/05/2017 11:14

I didnt get anything but guess Im too old for presents.

There is a holiday Id like to do but it means raiding savings.

ponygirlcurtis · 07/05/2017 11:34

Happy birthday Niki - hope you are going to treat yourself to something nice today.

I had a great time at the wedding I was at yesterday, very emotional ceremony. My eating was fine, but I drank a fair bit. loads Back to it tomorrow.

BeyondStrongAndStable · 07/05/2017 12:38

Lunch for me is two Linda McCartney red pepper and 'chorizo' sausages, with a whole pack of Aldi's Mediterranean roast veg. Yum.

Stuckatthestopsign · 07/05/2017 12:39

Happy birthday niki

FreeNiki · 07/05/2017 13:05

No I got rejected for another job on friday so won't be buying anything.

MountainDweller · 07/05/2017 14:52

Thanks everyone Flowers

Happy Birthday Niki!

I've lost another kilo - am happy about that at least!

leesmum · 07/05/2017 16:44

Just skimming through but Happy Birthday Nikki Flowers

How you doing Mountain? Been thinking of you this week, I lost my Dad nearly ten years ago, he was only 62. Life is so hard Sad well done on losing a Kilo!
Beyond you're doing so well, I do think the first week is the hardest and then your stomach shrinks a bit so it should get easier Hmm

Well done to everyone else, you all seem to be doing really well and shifting those lbs, I've been so good so I'm hoping to have lost at least 2lb when I weigh in tomorrow!!!

Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone WineWink

lastqueenofscotland · 07/05/2017 17:05

Running how did your 10k go?

BeyondStrongAndStable · 07/05/2017 17:26

Just had scrambled egg with spinach (in butter) for dinner, and a glass of sparkling diet cranberry stuff Smile

FreeNiki · 07/05/2017 17:26

Hot pt is thinking of leaving London for abroad. over heard him. oh well fuck it.

runningtogetskinny · 07/05/2017 17:41

It was great thanks queen! I did Keswick 1/2 marathon last Sunday so hadn't planned the 10k for today but someone gave me their number last minute. I was about 50 seconds slower than the same course last year but pleased with that as I was probably still recovering a bit from last week. Might treat myself to wine tonight and weigh in tomorrow GrinWine

BitOutOfPractice · 07/05/2017 18:58

Oh I am on my way home full of family love and prosecco after mom's 80th. Her face when she walked into her party was just priceless Smile

In other news I've been wearing a jumpsuit today. Without irony

niki happy birthday! Hope you have had a nice day.

My eating hasn't gone so good today, will get it back on track tomorrow!

SpuriouserAndSpuriouser · 07/05/2017 19:31

Well done Running! That's really impressive!

Boop that sounds lovely, how nice for your mum!

I haven't gone as off piste as I normally do this weekend. I actually think I just about managed to stick to my maintenance calories! Hopefully that means I will see a loss this week, after my fast days. I'm also going to aim to cycle to work on 3 days this week, then I really need to get back to bodypump at the weekend.

poorpaws · 07/05/2017 19:44

Niki happy birthday. PT is probably a wrong 'un when you get to really know him. You might have made a good escape.

Well my Angel Week (6 days) is over and I've lost 3 1/2 pounds. I'd hoped for 4 but am happy with that. I've already gone over my calories for today but I'm having chocolate tonight as it's Black Hole Sunday now I've weighed and anything from weighin to midnight is now calorie free, we all know that, right?

Next week will be harder to lose as I have two lunch time meals out planned, nothing fancy, but I still struggle when not at home. I just don't want to gain next week.

A new week starts tomorrow so fingers crossed for everyone.

FreeNiki · 07/05/2017 20:19

ive spent the day by myself not even a drink out or anyone to go with.

im losing weight why again.

not like anyone sees it or cares Sad
