I did not actualy eat anything thast i should not have–it is just a mystery.
Out shopping today and treated mysdelf to some lunch-tuna and salad sandwich and coffee [plain]
Plus salmon tonight with salad.
Perhaps you’re not eating enough Mariana, and they do say salad puts on weight because it’s contains a lot of water.
Thanks Susie, i have been told that before ----but it is difficult to know how much is too liitle or just enough, but not having too much. !!
As for salad–I do not have salad as such–eg–lettuce cucumber tomato—I have spiralised carrot and apple–chopped peppers, celery etc etc
All I can do is wait till next week–all i know is that all my clothes are getting really loose on me–even stuff I have not worn for years…so that is a plus. Plus i bought half a dozen tshirts in M and S in the next size down–yeah !!!
Salad puts on weight?..that’s a new one on Me :-D…I think that would just happen if it’s smothered in salad cream/mayonnaise which I hate.
Taking a break for a couple of days to concentrate on other things other than diet…onwards and downwards Folks,x
Have a good weekend May–I am busy all weekend too-all day at church , doing a course, plus a quiz in the evening–on Sunday --following church service–an AGM where I am hoping to get voted in as a church councillor–then a bereavement service in the eveinmg.
Ive just made a pasta and vegetable salad to take with me for lunch tomorrow–plus salmon pate , to take to the quiz with some celery sticks–instead of dipping into crisps, crackers,cakes, chocolate–which the others always take.
Had some different crispbreads this morning–called Ryvita Cracker bread–I think— really crispy and tasty. with cottage cheese–of course…
Hi
Chicken, Chicken and more Chicken.
I am getting fed up with it.
Time to go fishing and fill up a freezer.
I rarely eat chicken or any meat–but on saying this i bught a chicken in sainsburys this week --not sure why–I think the dogs will eat more of it than i do !!
ANY food can put on weight, if you take in more calories than your body needs.
And I’m in. I’m currently out of town for the weekend and having to live off of restaurant food, so starting Monday I’m getting back to calorie counting. I lost 80 pounds doing that and gained most of it back because I got careless. Add to that I’m going into menopause and that’s just making things worse, I’ve put on too much weight in the last year.
Don’t know that I want to disclose my current weight (it’s too much, put it that way) but will report poundage lost, if it happens. I just need to get back into online socializing with others who are doing the weight loss thing because it helps to keep me encouraged and focused. I use an online calorie counter and log everything I eat. My daily calorie budget is 1683.
So it’s back to logging calories and rekindling my relationship with my kitchen scales 
Edit: As for weighing myself, I only do it once a week. One thing you shouldn’t do is get on the scales several times a day and expect to see any major differences. Your weight will naturally fluctuate every day, so weighing once a week gives you a better idea of any weight changes. I do it in the morning, unclothed, before I eat or drink anything and after I’ve used the bathroom. One rule I always set for myself is NOT to become obsessed with the scale.

Breakfast: 2 Toast, Butter. Tea.
Lunch: Homemade Red Thai Chicken Curry, handful of Pasta.

Hi
I have sinned today, felt a bit down, so sirloin steak, potato wedges and mushrooms for lunch.
This dieting thing is hard.
We all do it–Ive had a stressful few days–I have been all over the place–the important thing is not to let it go on for too long. -Which I did in the past–but hopefully have learned from my mistakes.
Mornin’ All…well I’ve managed to get into the auld jeans and zip 'em up,but I’m left with a muffin top :shock: so they’re in the bin and I bought a new pair with elastic at both sides of the waist.yeah! perfect fit…so sorted …dropped a dress size from 16 to 14…that’ll do Me.

Lunch…chicken drumsticks marinaded in tandoori paste/yogurt…salad,
Dinner…Haddock sw chips.
@That is great news May—really well done !! you deserve that xxx
Thanks Mariana,I think I’ll stick at this weight as it’s not a good idea at My age to lose much more…(more wrinkles on the face and a turkey neck just aint attractive )…will just continue eating healthily to maintain.xx
