Can't believe how much I've put on in last year. However, have just come back from Aquatone so done my exercise for the day.

Have just found an alternative to chocolate...have wizzed up skim milk in the blender with fudge highlights drinking chocolate..tummy now filled with low cal chocolately liquid....ahhhh

ABitofPizazz- my plans are to eat less at meals, not pick and snarf, more exercise. Emotional eating is my biggest downfall.

Been to an hour's spinning tonight. Feeling virtuous. Have eaten cr*p all day though.

Eddas, thanks - didn't know that about weighing more at night! Feel better now. I'll try to stick to weighing in at a set time.

Cheers honey, and goodnight all.

Does anyone else get mega snacky and hungry at night?

I had a bowl of cereal about and hour and half ago and feel hungry again

I think the best thing for me to do would be to say no food after 8pm and try to go to bed at about 9:30pm so Im not up and feeling hungry?

I have been looking at inspiration - we are hopefully going on holiday in July and I rather fancy this

What do you think

Dis - I know what you mean about evenings. I usually have to get up at 5am so am in bed by 9ish with a book usually. Over the Xmas break I have been staying up later and really, really struggling not to pick and eat and eat and pick. Back to work today so hopefully back to normal.

Try to have some good things to snack on, fruit, carrot sticks etc and make sure you have a pint of water first. Tell yourself you can only snack once you have drank the water. More often than not you will not feel the need to eat after that. Also, write down everything that you eat and see if you find a pattern emerging. Sometimes it can help to just look at what you have eaten and your head knows that you CAN'T be hungry.

morning,yuck

hungover and snowed in,bugger,bugger,bugger

Thanks SF will try the water tonight.

Had breakfast 2.5points, 2 pieces of ww toast and half a small can of beans, will have the rest at luch. Beans fill me up loads.

Am going to pour a pint of water in a min and crack on with Davina DVD.

The snow here is crazy!

Morning,

Having porridge again as I am working 11am until 8pm so wont get any lunch until about 2pm.

I was hoping I would get about 10ft of snow so I didn't have to go to work.

Porridge with honey and raspberries here this morning, yum!

Music class with DD at 10, but is too far to walk unfortunately. Plus it's freezing! Snow is on its way here aparently but will be the 3rd warning of snow we have had this winter & I am yet to see any!

mmmm sounds gorgeous bebe, may have to try a little of that

Morning ladies

fatkayslim - which part of the country are you if you don't mind me asking?

Sadly, to attend FIL's funeral we were supposed to be travelling to West Midlands today (from South Coast) but DH has postponed due to concerns about weather.

Oh dear, will you miss the funeral?

Sorry to hear of your loss.

The snow will affect so many things like this!

I was supposed to be doing that training for 5k run but theres no way I can get out in this!

Morning all - went for a 30 min run after I dropped the kids at school today - feck it was cold! I thought I would be losing a few extra ounces by my fingers dropping off!!! Am going to buy some suitable gloves later so that doesn't happen tomorrow

Food plan today is...
B - yog and blackberries
L - roast veggies
D - Baked potato and salad with a bit of cheese

The 'rents are coming over at teatime so there may be a small slice of xmas cake too.

Thanks Dis, we won't miss it because DH has managed to postpone but they can't do it for a couple of weeks now.

I have done the Great South Run (10 miles) but in 2003 and a few 10K races in my time.

Impressed at runforit.

please can I join

Hi compo, welcome

Looks good runforit

I think my problem is exerices, I walk to school and back - 20 minutes up a hill
but it's not really fast walking unless cold like today

I lost a stone pre wedding years ago by eating salad for lunch so I'm trying that again and cutting out bread, chocolate , crisps and wine
but find it hard to be tee total so am having a G&T at 6pm

it's easier to be good in the week but hard at weekends isnt it? and I'm goign out Friday night for a pub meal plus wine, lol

Hi compo - love your nickname

I am trying to get in the mood to kickstart my exercise again. Do you like running/jogging?

Wow - 40 of us so far! (Praps compo should get a prize..? )

Did feel very hungry last night, despite eating what I thought was enough throughout the day.

On reflection, turkey broth (with barley, but not loads,) and a few crumbs of cheese and grapes were not sufficient to see me through the evening. Staved off the pangs by wolfing low-fat cottage cheese from the pot at bedtime, only to wake ravenous at five.

Anyone else experiencing this? I wonder if it's just my stomach adjusting? I might try a bit more bulk today.

I've just had an idea and wondered what you all think.

We have sorted our weight loss list for Monday weigh in.

Exercise - I think the recommendation is 5 x per week 30 minutes of aerbic exercise, something that makes you feel out of breath.

On another day we could do an exercise goal list, something like: pizzazz, running x3 at 30 mins; aerbics x1 1 hour.

I am trying to get motivated with exercise I used to be so good with it!!

Phas, I think oatcakes are quite low in fat and they are low on the GI index. Basmati rice is also very filling.

I get snacky in the evening, I eat early with the children at 5pm. I eat something about 9pm, an oatcake if I am really hungry. Just tempted to put cheese on it, though.
