    Hope everyone is having a good day and staying motivated! I have to work this weekend, bad for me but good for my diet. Helps when I pack it up and whatever I bring is what I eat.....little or no room for "cheating". I absolutely refuse to go to the "snack monsters". (You know them.... the machines that take your money and apply pounds directly to your backside!!!!)

    THANKYOU FOR THIS LINK! the recipes are amazing! I shall try to make these at the weekend! - low fat peanut butter and banana muffins! and only at 160 calories they will be much better than a normal muffin! (http://www.skinnytaste.com/2011/07/low-fat-peanut-butter-banana-muffins.html#more)

    however I have a question, I keep seeing apple sauce in recipes, is that actual apple sauce that I put with my pork chop? or is it some thing different? also "Better'n Peanut Butter" is this just an american product or is it available in the UK

    The Better'n Peanut Butter is a low calorie peanut butter. I don't know how widely sold it is as I don't like peanut butter so I have really used it or looked into. If you can't find that exact brand in the UK maybe there is another low calorie peanut butter you could use that is available over there.

    Hope your all having a great weekend and I'll post maybe a picture of my peaunt butter cup cakes later!

    I had pizza and beer for dinner last night. It was AWESOME and I only went over my calories by 300. I'm going to try to get two workouts in today (One down already!) to try to make up for last night. I don't mind getting a net slightly under 1200 when I know I've gone over the night before (espeically over on pizza and beer.)

    Had a rough week this week - lack of exercise and 2 days of cheat diet; just needed a reprieve last week! However, while this chart doesn't show it, I actually got up to 142lb and am back down to my starting weight. So there is some maintenance and consistency happening at least! This week shall be better!!!!
