Anyone starting a new diet tomorrow? Want to be diet buddies? Im 14st7lb my heaviest ever at 5ft4. Need some motivation and willpower. Going to be doing meal substitution with shakes twice a day to kickstart my diet. Was meant to start early in January but it didn’t happen and I’ve slipped. Will be doing My Fitness Pal too.

It was those little Ritz crackers, cheddar, Brie and Stilton. I'd usually have a glass of port with it but resisted today! Day 3 no booze done ✅

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 00:04

Ooh I love Ritz BlushSmile you're killing me!! Well done for day 3, fantastic Grin

YouBoggleMyMind · 07/03/2019 08:56

They're very morish aren't they! Nom!

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 09:08

Have a great day today!! I am not fasting today as I have an interview this morning and don't want a rumbly belly - and I have a nice 10 hour shift later too Grin

recklessgran · 07/03/2019 10:06

Morning, @YouBoggle you are doing so well trying to tackle food and booze together. Amazing! @Tinsel good luck with your interview and your long shift afterwards - how do you do it?
DGC coming today and have requested toad in the hole and roast potatoes for dinner. Roast veg and 2 little sausages for me it is. Not keen on Yorkshires anyway so shouldn't be too hard.
Feeling positive and so far not finding it too hard to stick to 800 cals. However all DD's home this weekend as it's my birthday and a big family meal out is planned. I'm going to have what I like [including chips and bread!] and then get back on the wagon a la one meal doesn't make you fat!
In any event DD4 [junior doc] doesn't approve of low cal diets so keeping a bit quiet about it until they notice the new slimmer me - they haven't noticed yet as I've only lost 10lbs -so a long way to go.Ha! Ha!

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 11:38

I don't know! Especially without biscuits, I'm not sure Grin my interview went okay thank you!

Ohhhh yes you have got to enjoy your birthday! No guilt allowed.

YouBoggleMyMind · 07/03/2019 16:21

I just ate 4 white chocolate and lemon cookies... they were super yum! Enchiladas for dinner tonight 🙌🏻

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 16:26

Omg they sound amazing.. I may have to attempt some! Enchiladas mmmm.. I'm having a burrito bowl for my dinner. I have also had chocolate digestives and a packet of crisps today - all within calories Grin

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 23:09

How was everyone's day? Grin

YouBoggleMyMind · 07/03/2019 23:17

Ha well you know mine... I let myself have 1 glass of wine with my enchiladas. Just 1. U didn't go back and top up though I had every intention of doing it. Feels good to be in control.

Tomorrow I need to have a better food day but overall feeling nice and balanced.

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 23:31

That's great! Well you are positive now so that is the best way to be Grin I'm planning to drink a shitload on Saturday so going to try and save some calories tomorrow!

TinselAndKnickers · 07/03/2019 23:32

I've also changed it so you should be able to see my diary - and how badly I eat!!

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 13:48

Mmmm bacon butty...

TinselAndKnickers · 08/03/2019 13:52

I might have one of those for lunch! I had a groovy bar for my breakfast (Aldi's finestGrin) and not sure of dinner tonight so bacon and eggs might be on the cards!

@recklessgran how are you getting on?

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 14:01

Time to get on with some things around the house and put the boy down for a nap 😴

TinselAndKnickers · 08/03/2019 14:23

I'm doing lots of mini tasks today as well! Think of the calories burnt Grin

recklessgran · 08/03/2019 19:03

Evening @Tinsel and @YouBoggle sorry for going AWOL! Today is by birthday so I've been out for lunch at M&S cafe - I know how to live girls. I had a pack of variety sandwiches at 365 calories and a black coffee with my bestie. We then went to the pub , so a JD and coke there. My lovely baby [DD5] is home and I have been thoroughly spoilt with lots of presents and cards with beautiful words that made me cry. We are just trying to decide whether to go out for something to eat or get a takeaway. Big whole family meal out tomorrow evening as not everyone could make tonight. Think it's a bit indulgent to go out two nights running? Mmm.
Hope you two are doing O.K. I think I'm going to bust it this weekend!

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 19:12

Reckless Happy birthday 🥳 you defo deserve to enjoy yourself this weekend. I am and I have no excuse at all! Haha 😂

TinselAndKnickers · 08/03/2019 19:43

Happy birthday!!! Eat allll the calories 🥳 aw so pleased you're having a nice day! I've had a stressful one so I'm eating McDonald's as we speak Grin

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 20:11

Oooh what's your usual McDonald's order?

TinselAndKnickers · 08/03/2019 20:22

Oh here's where we all judge me for being a greedy fat pig!!Grin
3 chicken selects and medium fries, lemonade and a bacon double cheeseburgerGrinBlush what's yours??

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 22:32

Delicious 😋

Mine is double cheese burger, medium fries and a medium fat coke (used to be Diet Coke but since being pregnant and craving fat coke, I've not managed to go back...)

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 22:32

If McDonald's did beer, I'd buy that too!

TinselAndKnickers · 08/03/2019 22:35

They do in Germany and Amsterdam! Grin you're due a trip there! I've eaten sooo badly today, just realised I've had no proper food...

Breakfast - Groovy bar from Aldi.

Lunch - biscuits and peanut butter cups.

Dinner - McDonald's!

So bad!!!

YouBoggleMyMind · 08/03/2019 22:41

Don't worry mine is absolutely no better and I don't even care 😂
