I defo do lol. Do you just loose the weight after you give birth though? I dont lose a pound for some reason I have to really try hard. My own fault I guess! should have done it earlier but nothing works until something 'clicks' in your head, hopefully this is it for me again

 

[Blah11]

No I don't. I have to work at it. The first 2st comes off with baby/water weight etc quickly but the last 2st i need to work really hard to get it off. BF does nowt for my weight loss either sadly :\

Mandy can you post what you eat in a day, like all snacks and drinks just so I can see whats ''normal'' cos I dont even know whats normal anymore

only if you dont mind that is

 

[Blah11]

when not on a diet?

usually toast or cereal for breakfast
lunch is sometimes leftovers, sometimes pasta or a sandwich or salad or soup
dinner is just normal stuff like jacket potato, pasta, meat pots veg type meal, fishpie, cottage pie, lasagna, pizza etc

snacks I like fruit, sometimes less healthy stuff like chocolate. I dont eat crisps really and i cant buy biscuits cos i eat entire packets in 1 sitting

 

[Dizzy321]

what about like today on a diet? like a typical diet day?

 

[Blah11]

or when im being healthy like today...

mullerlight and blueberries and strawberries
an orange
left over boiled potatoes with seasoning
couscous & roasted veg (onion, butternut squash, carrot, courgette, pepper, cherry tomato & sweet poato) with a side salad & balsamic dressing
