Onwards And Downwards Continues In July 2014

[AB Editor]

Hello all,

Welcome to this month's Onwards & Downwards. We welcome anyone serious about losing weight and we offer support and kind thoughts - not magic fixes, just sensible help.

This month we would love your low calorie breakfast ideas, thanks to OG. After watching a couple of semi-scary TV programmes this week about how bad our diet is in general some fresh ideas would be welcomed :-).

One programme even suggested that going back to a traditional FUll English is a good idea, less sugar and processed carbs etc!! Not sure if I have time for that every morning.

This sounds yum though:

Let us know how you start your day a low-calorie way.

Don't forget your weekly weigh on Wednesday and remember we don't judge!

Here is last months thread

Good morning all,
Oh dear I'm up a bit this week. I had a restaurant brunch plate on Monday and may have gone overboard on the diabetic cake I made and the fruit intake. Hmmm. I shall sit on the naughty step and contemplate my erroneous ways...ho hum!

[jennyjoan]

I have remained the same. Full of enthusiasm initially but it waned at the weekend. Ho Hum too. I got to get rid of it cos my Bridget Jones knickers are beginning to cut off my circulation.

[Maydup]

An almost unmeasurable smidgin of a loss for me this week. Better than nothing and onwards and downwards for next week.

[xstitcher]

Well no big hurrahs this week but no bad bitfalls either. I would suggest JJ that if the weekends are going to be your temptation times trying planing what you will have in the house then, making sure that there are no baddies to put you on the wrong path. You could also prepare snacks such as grated carrots so that they are on hand if you need them. Try thinking of how nice it would be to get out of the Bridget Jones knickers and into something sassy. ha ha
......and Maydup....as you say better the down smidgon than an up smidgon.
My gain was only a bit but should have been zero.

[wendilla]

1ib loss this week but that is due to this not weather as not been eating so much .
Maydup yes going the right way

Jennyjoan don't worry about staying the same it will show up next week . I have a habit of staying the same even though I know I have been good .

[wendilla]
