I do calorie count but sometimes I look at the portion my husband gives to me and I think Oh Oh way to big..but I still enjoy it..especially if its easy food like cottage pie etc....
so I should cut down the portion size as well as count cals..
Next fill is the 30th so I should be at restriction by them

Hi hun, when you fancy a treat, is it sweet or savoury?
If it's savoury, Slim Fast do these yummy little cheese bites, they're low cal and very tasty.
Or try Walkers French Fries, or pretzels.
For sweet, the list is endless but one of my favourites is those spaceships filled with sherbert!
Or sometimes a hot chocolate drink does the trick (Options, or a chai latte).
Good luck hun and keep at it, look how amazingly well you've done - FOUR STONE!

Val, I had oatmeal and gained 4 lbs?!?!?! My body hates losing, absolutely hates it. But it will eventually go, as will yours. Mind over matter. I'm so mad about the 4 lbs but I'll get it off with another 4. Literally went to bed and woke up 4 lbs heavier and now it won't shift. Stupid weight loss, it's never easy.

Yeah I would definately agree with the above. You've come so far, you are going to achieve your dreams it's just about time I guess. Didn't go on in a day but it will come off! If you lost what you've lost now every 4 months that's twelve stone in a year! X

You are doing amazing Val especially with all the family problems that you have, I got divorced 8 years ago, it was the most stressful time of my life, especially once the solicitors got involved, my mum was my rock and really helped me and the kids through a very rough ride. Sending you a big hug x

Val, I was 36, two young children, I was grossly overweight, my ex husband used to call me some vile names, my friend suggested using internet dating, "Match.com" it really gave me confidence again, but I was amazed how many men liked bigger women. I chatted to a few but only met up with one and hit it off straight way, we were together five years, but unfortunately neither one of us wanted to commit to each other, and both had children, so we went our separate ways but still remain good friends.
I wasn't interested in meeting anyone else, I wanted to just been with my children, then three years ago I got introduced to a man, we spoke for over a month and then decided to date, we married six months later, everybody was shocked, but Val, I am really happy now and wished that I had divorced years earlier as I wasted 11 years on a man who did not love me. Rest assured that the kids will bounce back and be happy, my children tell me that there there is a far nicer atmosphere since I divorced their father.
My mother always gave me good advice "Donna, never chase a bus as there is always another one around the corner, hop off one and hop on another!" I tell this to all my friends who are separated or divorced, they laugh but they admit its very true! x
