it was just going to be the steak with potato and veg but i had all i needed for the mushroom stroganoff and the steaks were quite small so i thought for just two more checks it was worth it, had it poured into my potato and over the steak it was lovely and i was so full up mmmmmmmm x

Well have fallen off the pep tonight.Have had 3 slices of bread(always my downfall) with some chocolate spread.
Not un- doable but angry at myself.The kids were having it so I couldn't resist as I really do love bread ,esp granary(mouth watering as I type.)
So about 12 checks in total so 6 over today.

Och well should be able to claw it back tomorrow.

Jan 10 2008, 09:36 PM

Jan 10 2008, 09:41 PM
Thanks Dawn
I do think this is helping me as I feel I am accountable and honest,no point otherwise I would only be kidding myself.
Well done ,you're having a great week.Tomorrow should be easier for me as plan on having a long lie as so tired ,these early mornings are a killer,especially when I haven't been sleeping so well,so that might have contributed to my willpower waning a little bit.

I feel the same if i cheat its only myself im cheating!
thing is when i am writing things down normally and i have something over my checks i think och i wont write that in its only 5 checks or whatever and it wont make that much difference but since i started posting my menus on here i feel i have to be totally honest else i'm letting you and everyone who might be looking in down!! a bit bizarre really but when i'd had my crisps tonight i thought oooo must go and post it!!!!!!!!!!!!
well who cares if that is a bit daft it seems to be working!!!
have a great Friday I'm sure you will wake up refreshed and raring to go x
