My restart has lasted a week now and have a had a few slip ups...alcohol...but Im getting there!
How did today go then for everyone? I had a big pasta salad to eat all day long and I went for walkies with doggy and nearly got run over by a silent 4 wheeled thing speeding along the beach!! The dog did not want to walk I had to drag it through the wind and she is on special food like me at the mo and cant eat what she wants! The poor thing we were both suffering!

My day has been really good so far eating wise. It's a bit warm here today so I expect I can shed a few pounds later with sweat, while walking the dogs and I might even have a go on the trampoline again as my shoulder is starting to feel a bit better, but not quite up to Tae-bo as yet.
We can do it Veg, keep up the good work luvey.

I desperately need to start over - don't know where my willpower has gone, but need to find it fast. I am going to visit Holmes Place tomorrow, but a couple of girls at work told me about this site - Brit Military Fit (http://www.britmilfit.co.uk/classes/Novices.htm)
Do you think it will work - and should I resist handing over my pay pack to Holmes Place? Where's Stef - I need help :D

Does this count as evil ? When my nephew was little his mum would only allow him rice cakes (with no flavourings :eek: ) as treats.
Maybe if i like rice cakes as much as I do cakes I wouldn' look like a :moo: constantly grazing :lol:

I just went shopping Walmart (was thinking of you TQ!!!) and tried the bacon ones that TQ has been raving about and they are yum! unfortunately they had run out of the cheese and onion ones so will have to try them next time.

I am in awe of all your willpower and wonderous efforts this week - give yourselves a big pat on the back. I am starting over tomorrow - now Ray is back to manual work he has lost a lot of weight in a week - not that there was too much of him to start off. I need to get my finger out cos if he can do it so can I.
Don't want him waking up one morning when he's all toned and even more gorgorous looking and thinking I'm a lump of lard - sorry for the down thought but I am allowing myself one a day and thats it for today.
Watch this space for a glowing report tomorrow

Am sticking to it loosely - I know that doesn't make any sense but I am eating 3 meals a day with one snack. Have cut back on the booze too - had some cider last night - am going for the little and often approach - am determind to have a good day - may be difficult though.
It is a friends daughters birthday and we are all off to the pictures to see Scooby Doo. Taking diet juice with me so that parts easy, in theory anyway. But after that we are taking the kids to McDonalds - not so easy.
Think the best plan for me today is to eat healthy around the McDs and just enjoy it when I'm there, but also to make sure I don't have a large or supersize meal - if my willpower stays high I might manage with a chicken nugget happy meal - don't want to be quoted on that though

I do not know what happened to me with the scales someone must of tampered with them as I was 5 pounds up from yesterday that is so ridiculous they must be faulty I just laughed when I saw the number scales are stupid things no way you can go up 5 pounds over night. Can you?
