New thread

Hi all just wanted to mention I had this today & it was lovely, strong taste of lime juice but didn't feel like low cal at all

Must try that one, I've only had the taco fries from that range and they're great.
Away for fun I am, nothing as noble as work! although how much fun a rainy few days in Ireland can be, already got soaked at expensive outing, and fleeced for food (twice) Today will hopefully be better

Never tried that one but tried Aldi's Korean beef noodles today and it was good. Tried the others in the range and don't like them at all.
Only 309 calories but that looks great for the protein Happier
Not soon be home thankfully

Down a bit. Order insoles for sore feets

Well done life hope feet are better 😊
Not had a lot today very warm but it's been lovely ☺️
Hope everyone is ok ☺️

Feet are hurting in these trainers today. Steps are decent this week. Diet shocking

Also had this it was alright too

Not fleeced for food is par for the course isn't it? Hopefully weather improves for you.

Must try those noodles mrsmadevans I'm not really a ready meal person but it makes for a handy lunch until I've my kitchen sorted & can batch cook

Nothing worse life

Weather was much better after getting drowned on Monday. Could have done a week in Spain for 3 nights in Ireland, except of course we can't as not allowed so I'll stop gripping😂 Saw some beautiful sights, got lots of walking in. Heading home today and I feel absolutely huge, hugely bloated and gutty. Wish I'd packed leggings, jeans are not my friend

I haven’t weighed, am scared to! Jeans feeling snug!
Plan is to keep up the IF and low carbing now until we go to NI on 2nd Aug. I’d be delighted to lose a couple of kilos but tbf being around 62/63 where I was before hols would be a win.
Breakfast today will be egg and salmon.
Lunch - going to MILs so bringing a salad box.
Dinner - portobello mushroom “pizzas” with green salad and a herby white bean salad.

Glad you had a great time walking and seeing the countryside Not
Gen you will get it off just now don't worry 👏😊
Life hope your feet are ok they sound painful lovely 🤗
Happier Dd2 said it was good for the Cals. I know everyone is different but worth a go 😊
Been ok today very hot so not eating much thank God !

Trying to pull the calories back today, a shade under 2,000 which is a big improvement on the last 3 days
Have had a sneaky mid afternoon weigh and it was not pretty. Technically cals in vs out I should be looking at 1-2lbs. But of course that's under 3-4 lb of bloat!
And of course I've company over for dinner tomorrow, just to make it tricky.

Not hopefully it will come off very quickly fingers crossed 🙂

Thanks mrs, I'm hopeful that's the case. I have really had my fill so looking forward to eating lighter and getting back to my weights/workouts. Diet starts again tomorrow, can't afford to wait til Monday

Endured a terrible 6 hours at MIL where she didn’t speak to me at all and spoke in French to DH and if I spoke she grunted “eh?!” And looked at DH. Then a neighbour called in and she sat and spoke perfect unaccented English to us all for 20 mins.
We ended up going for pizza and wine so today was torched calorie wise, plus no exercise. I give up!!!

Le Aul Bat. That's unpleasant behaviour, but nothing the EP's do surprise me. I'd think carefully the next time whether you've other commitments when it's time to visit.
Had my first decent sleep all week, feel brand new. Lots of work this morning, then food shopping. Then my own ignorant EP to entertain. Joy.

Think my french is off, should that be La rather than Le?
Having a fasted morning so I can have my part 2 weigh in to cheer myself up! Think I'll try that burrito bowl you had happier for my dinner tonight. Light food is what I need

😂😂 not I won’t be rushing down to see her that’s for sure. Will obvs attend FIL funeral but we shall see after that.
Have so far had a poached egg and slice of salmon. Eating in a friends house tonight so not sure what he will make, need to make my lunch healthy as poss.

Ha. Kill her with English speaking kindness gen

What a Hen Fuwch Gen that's Welsh for OLD COW

Not it's a great feeling when you now you have had enough and actually want to eat well again, helps with the cravings !
I have been excellent so far , been busy with MumBob then had to go shopping so have not eaten yet , however this warm weather is brilliant for helping us feel less hungry or is that just a momentary benefit l wonder?

Sadly part 2 weigh in wasn't quite the success I'd hoped but still nearly 4lb lighter than yesterday, although that was my highest weight in a lonnng time so no great accomplishment. Sitting around 3.5 up on my most recent lowest weight.
I'll keep chipping away, just over 8,000 steps so I'll get my 9,000 by the end of the day at least.
Glad the weathers working as a diet buddy mrs, so nice to have sun. It's super hot here, lying down with a cuppa - will have to start the dinner in a bit.
Have a great night gen, hope you get served something yummy

I ate white bread last weekend so toilet is an issue, I'm bloated & now my feet are swollen with the heat.

Meeting a friend tomo for lunch & drinks to celebrate my divorce & I'm just not feeling it at the thoughts of putting on clothes

Going to beautician tomo for eyebrow shape & tint & lash tint & waxing & my nails doing & french polish on my toes, hoping I'll feel a bit better in myself after that.

Post holiday bloat not you can do this

Gen that's horrific, but her problem not yours.

Finally my trends are improving
Going to do a small Aldi shop this morn so that I'm set up for next weeks lunches
