I could not survive without coffee. Not so much for the perk but its part of my arsenal of tricks for quelling hunger pangs (snacking urges).0

I actually went out for a run/walk yesterday! Usually I just lazy around all weekend. I also made cookies and didn't eat them all at once. Haha. So far so good this weekend. We'll see how today goes.0

so, my weekend went almost according to plan - no problems or hick ups woth what I had planned during term day...hubby's pizza surprise on Friday and then an impromptu bbq on saturday (luckily I had some lean meat burgers and chicken sausage from musclefood in the freezer I made for me - and also made grilled courgettes and peppers, mushrooms and shrimp. only had one of the burgers In a little wholemeal bab. I did however, not log the wine...
Both bootcamp sessions were hard woth quite a bit of running and last night when my husband and his boys had bangers and mash, I had chicken sausage, mashed sweet potato and brokkoli
I am quite proud
hope everybody else's weekend went well too!!0 -
My weekend went well too. I hung out at home and got some good gardening done, made it to bed at a reasonable hour each night, had a good run on Sunday morning and afterward spent some time thinking about how to organize myself for the week ahead given that I've found myself in a food rut. After wandering the aisles of my local health food store, i've got interesting and tasty meals planned for the week ahead. This may not shock you...but it sure shocks me!0

Weekend #2 is on the horizon. I will have house guests from Saturday until Tuesday and a pool party on Sunday afternoon. I have a run scheduled for tomorrow morning and 16k on Sunday morning..so there's some exercise. I'm going to do some research to find a good restaurant for Saturday evening, but at the moment, i can't think of what kind of cuisine would be most accommodating Any suggestions? And on Sunday, i'll make a point of keeping a glass of water in my hand. I'll be out of the house on Saturday with a series of appointments so i'll pack healthy snacks and my refillable water bottle. All in all, i think i'll be able to manage. It helps to have thought it through and written it down here.
What are your weekend plans? Any obstacles and ways that we can help?0 -
Not really thought about the weekend yet as we have not really made plans. well, Sunday will be a country fayre so will pack a portion of trusted couscous salad again with some chicken so I will not be tempted by burgers and pies. Saturday will be cleaning and meal plan writing and shopping so will be and home and healthy snacks are at hand.
also, bootcamp on saturday
have a wonderful weekend everybody!0 -
I have a night out with friends tomorrow night which is mostly a drinking affair, rather than eating, but I'm not really up for it. Not in the mood plus I'm feeling guilty ahead of time by the calories I'll be consuming in the form of useless booze, even if I do manage to limit it to 3 or 4 G & T's. I'm planning my homemade chorizo-pizza-on-a-tortilla-wrap-crust tonight as my Friday treat. I've got them down to a fine art now, about 400 - 450 cals.0

Weekends are challenging. Tonight and tomorrow should be okay. On Sunday we are heading out for a day in town as we're dropping my parents off to go on their 50th wedding anniversary Alaska cruise. I'm sure at least one meal will be in a restaurant and potentially one fast food. We'll have to see how it goes. I'm hoping we decide on a light lunch downtown and then a dinner at home. Maybe I should put a healthy meal in the crockpot for dinner so we have something to come home to. Now that's an idea. :-))0

I was thinking today was Friday, but it's Saturday. I wanted to participate this weekend in the challenge. So far, I did well last night. I went to the store and was busy until bedtime. Today I am at work and packed a bunch of healthy food (from said store visit). I plan to go to bed at a good time again tonight so that teaching Sunday school tomorrow and swimming all afternoon doesn't kill me for Monday.
What is everyone else doing this weekend?0 -

That's an amazing idea! I need to get back to crockpot dinners. Half of what kills me each evening is having to cook dinner when I have been playing with the kids all day. It's really like torture in my opinion.

If you buy the sugar free version, you can save yourself quite a few calories, especially if you have 3-4 cups like I do.

Weekend challenge............ It's my parents' 50th wedding anniversary today. We're stopping by this evening.... Mom will probably have baking and coffee out. I can manage that.... but Sunday is a big Sunday brunch... that will be hard.0

Get your kids involved in cooking with you. Make them your sous chefs. Teaching them how to prepare healthy meals helps them to eat that way when they are adults. My kids always enjoyed being able to get in there and try out herbs and spices. It sparked their creativity. I love to see them post meals on the internet that they have made. They are both grown adults in their 20's.0
