Thanks Daphne I'm the kind that only loses weight after I stop feeding which I did completely two weeks ago and is my biggest regret but that's another story.
Ran late and had to go to MacDonalds on the way. Your one was sniggering when I asked for a big Mac meal with water little does she know a soft drink can tip you over the edge calorie wise!
Hate hate MacDonalds though what a waste!

I would love to jump in here,
8 weeks to my wedding and doing a 12 week fitness challenge. Was down 2lbs last week and was really happy with that!

Ah we can't be having the likes if you here m&m.....
Only messing.
Two lbs is great going - lets see what we can lose this week and wreck Karl's head with all the alterations he'll have to do!
(m&m and I have bought our dresses in the same shop and are getting married the same week!)

Deer you have no need to worry... Went out for dinner with dp tonight and now tucking into a few beers. My two pounds will be back next week lol

jump in m&m!

We may have to change the name after the 7 weeks,to represent better our discussion - but we will keep it going until there is interest I think.

Ditto alien had late lunch in glendalough, went for lasagna and it was also very average. Went for a long walk in woods in morning. Very very sore back so was thinking period was coming and sure enough after getting bombed on two glasses of wine it's here... THANK GOD! the first since I had baby. I guarantee i'll lose a few pounds next week now my system is officially back to normal!
Enjoy your venison sausage casserole !

it was lovely in the end! didn't look much but very tasty.

Well today I've had pasta for lunch, wine and codeine. I'm as happy as a clam. Heading back to Wicklow now for more wine then bed!
Hope you two girls hangovers clear!

I have been utterly useless all weekend. Went out for dinner fri night and had plenty of beer afterwards. Ate lots of crap yest cuz was hungover and tired. Not much better today!

Oh Dear, I can't beleive how bad I was.

And for the future (talking to myself) eating allot of rubish and drinking does not help PMS at all! Still no sign of AF.

Back on track today - so I better go get myself lunch ready. Will go to the office for few hours - I will get full day for this so I don't mind.

1 hours walk - spinach & feta salad for lunch

feel great today, ready to go. tg it's a bh and i can get out with the kids. they had too much tv and wii yest with their bad parents!

Lunch - baby spinach, chicken, feta and tomatoes radish cucumber salad - 410 cal. It was BIG!
afternoon snack - cut up mangoes, natural activia, manuka honey - 300 calories
snack two baby tomatoes - 45 calorie

Dinner will be aisan turkey stir fry in lettuce wraps - it cames at 400 calories for two plates!
And latter on I may get bit of steamed broken jasmine rice with soy souce, this will add up to 13360 calories (small portion).

I got the manuka from M&S, I have to say it's the nicest I have come accross -really tasty!

2 hours walk

Another lovely long walk today with baby in his sling in the woods and had a vegetarian lasagne - also awful! If you ever go to Glendalough never get lasagne in either of the main restaurants!!

Back to shred tomorrow fingers crossed baby sleeps tonight!

redeemed myself today eating and mothering!!!

played 'lambs and leopards' with dd, she dressed in her white furry coat and me in my leopard fur coat! crawling round the landing for an hr. decided to give the fast walk a miss after that!!

we brought them for a mini hike in the forest this morn and i had veg stir fry for dinner.
phew - back to reality in the morn!

Had a great weekend with kids and family - but an absolute write-off in terms of eating and exercise.

Back on the wagon tomorrow!

Oh thank god I am not the only one, last night was total write off too.

Good intentions for today!

Dh made dinner - chicken, potatoe and veg.

My pms used to be so bad I had to go on anti depressants. Hopefully that will never come back turned into a complete psycho one a month! I was fairly bad mood wise and pain wise at the weekend but I suppose your first after a baby is bound to be bad I even cried at don't tell the bride

Had beef stew with only a small bit of beef and two small potatoes and egg and toast for breakfast. Did my shred today with small baby laughing a his mum huffing and puffing

Zero motivation!

I have 2 more pounds to go but my heart is just not into being good and there seem to be events all the time – like last night or Friday I am going on b-day party and with bit over 2 weeks to holiday - I feel like announcing holiday season and ditch the diet already



But…. I won’t.

Having salad with me today, will go home on time and make sure I do my spinach pie and large pot of minestrone.

Sometimes being ‘good’ seriously sucks!

Hours walk done this morning
