    @bookmeister86 Wear it! Looks good with your skin.
    @snowflake re Etsy & craft fairs -Christmas stuff is good all year long. I've bought Christmas ornaments on vacation as souvenirs (useful & small). Struck out with chips AGAIN today. Only consoling thought is I kept my mouth off the chocolate cake.
    Next week I'll bring some cooked eggs in for breakfast. Thinking if have protein & fat in the am, will be better the rest of day at work.

    @Bex953172 - I had to take a food safety course years ago and found out that 90% I f the time food poisoning is caused from something you ate appropriately 12 hours previous.

    Thanks for the suggestions on making money. My daughter contacted me today, she is on a wedding but/sell group, a girl was looking for invitations, my daughter recommended me.😂
    Also I have totally revamped my resume again. Need to update my cover letter and then I’m sending it off to the career counsellor.

    I have a good feeling about my resume this time and am not feeling as discouraged as I was feeling.

    Just for today, I am fasting. This is my first IF day all week. I think my minimum is going to settle at 3. Just guessing on that one, but I did 3 last winter and did not gain. I did not lose, but didn't gain, either. I can do one, easily, 2 sometimes, and 3, really difficult and few and far between.

    I AM IN!!!

    I am 25 years old. I have a 6 year old and a 2 month old. I had a C section 8 weeks ago so, exercise is limited at the moment... and I am breastfeeding which means, I need to add some extra calories. But I want can DO THIS!!!! I want to lose 50 pounds by the time 2020 arrives and getting into a routine with 2 kiddos is already a huge energy sucker.... but I want to be a better me. I want to learn how eat to live, not live to eat. I have a horrible relationship with food and swear up and down that I have a food addiction... so breaking that habit of going to food regardless of how my day was will be hard for me. I want to put heart healthy foods into my body and limit how many horrible things enter my vessel. Whos with me?

    I love accountability and I think this group will be PERFECT. thank you.

    @bex953172 I’m a UK teacher. Sorry to hear the little one has food poisoning - you should definitely report it as the council has contracts with the food companies that provide school dinners and they need to be told/investigate if there is a problem. Maybe email the school office and ask which member of staff deals with the catering company and let them know?

    Wishing Saskia better x

    @bookmeister86 - love the lippy! I’m also v nervous about wearing bright colours but I have really thin lips anyway so I need more neutral colours. But the red suits you - go for it! Hope the shoulder is better. A&E queues suck - especially at the weekends. Hugs x

    Hey i thought food poisoning because she cant hold water down, she said her tummy hurts, its projectile, her poos are giving her some discomfort (i tend to steer clear of her poos lol they STINK.)
    And i know its nothing i gave her, shd had coco pops for breakfast, her dinner the night before was beans and egg with toast.

    So after she threw up i asked her what she had for lunch.
    Sausage (with carrots -also present!) And pork is pretty bad for FP.

    I suppose i cant rule out stomach bug but it just seemed different

    Hey! We're similar age! Im 27! And i have 3 kids! 5, 2.5, and just turned 1.
    I think daily you will expend up to 500 cals when BFing but its important to eat them back to keep up your supply and that.

    I love the oomph you have 8 weeks after a C section! But take it easy!
    I tried to jump back on after having my last and it took me a while to get into it!
    So dont feel discouraged if you find it hard because finding the routine is killer!
    Keep coming back even if youve had a completely pants day!

    Dont know where my post is from yesterday lol but probably didnt achieve much.

    Tbh im trying to figure out what i want from my diet. I dont know whether i want to change it up completely. Like a Mediterranean style one or paleo or whatever, i dont know. But i suppose its not an excuse to carry on as i am now.
    And ill still calorie count even when i change diet.

    So JFT (Sat)
    I will...
    - Be in the green
    - Drink 8 glasses of water
    - Paint paint paint.

    I might...
    - Exercise (we shall see)

    I WILL NOT...
    - Binge
    - Estimate weights of food
    - Give up
