Thanks Seren, I think i'll try that one. I love garlic mushrooms
I'm finding the points allowance okay, I'm just still suffereing from the lack of sugar, and while my body is adapting, it is all I want to eat!!! So far so good though, i'm managing to avoid the stuff. I've been eating more fruit, which is a good filler, though i've just eaten a totally juice-less orange.... Ah well, better than a mars bars... Well, it isn't really, but i can pretend 
RBM, that food sounds pretty good, even if you're not training. Surely you wouldn't want to eat less in a day?
Flat foot, chicken kebabs are pretty healthy you know (so long as they're not drowned in sauce) as it is just grilled chicken, salad and a pitta bread. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Just tried to log my lunch on Ford Focus.co.uk ....
I agree Orca, Firday nights and Saturday cafe stops are my worst times! That said, i've not been to a cafe for aaaaaages.
Today i've been good food wise: toast for brekkie, banana snack, chicken with lemon & olives for lunch, and a pear, orange and apple since. I'm fecking hungry though.....
Off to gym for a wee run and a swim....I may have to have my post-gym protein shake before the gym....
I know Lee, Saturday morning cafe breakfasts can be so nice
I had porridge with protein powder, berries and flaxseed for breakfast.
Muller Bio Yoghurt before lunch time workout
Homemade vegetable soup, 2 slices homemade bread, 100g turkey breast and onion relish for lunch.
Not sure about dinner, have defrosted chicken breasts so will probably go with some kind of chicken stir fry. Best of luck over the weekend sausages!
Today has been a bowl of cereal....a banana.....scrambled egg.....tea/coffee..... chicken is out ready for a stir fry and I think a beer will have to be had as tis Friday. 50minute run though so I think a beer is okay.....just trying to forget what I have had the rest of the week.
Gooooo Donuts!
Saffers I was going to have a beer or two and watch the rugby but cant be assed to go down the shops to get some
Just to try and steer the doughnuts off track....

(I need it someone brought doughnuts into work today.... and I've opened the Malbec - I promise I'll just eat veggies & water the rest of the weekend)
I'm f..kin starvin!!!
I walked up and down, up and down, up and down the "seasonal aisle" in Tesco today - the mini eggs and creme eggs were calling. . .
. . .but I walked away, empty-handed.
T'was the thought of my fellow sausages that saved me from ruin.

2 * Weetabix & Skimmed Milk

1759 Calories with a target of 1812
2-hours on the turbo for 33 miles = -1793 according to fordfocus
-34kcal for the day
(although Garmin reckons 1000 for the cycling)
Come on Sausages!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meface (needs stuffing)
2hrs on the turbo!!!
I reckon the sausages are gonna walk this
Madlot thanks.
Wife was out tonight, daughter asleep in bed, so couldn't go out and run or party. Therefore hit the turbo. Watched Leon on DVD and then the first half of the rugby. 2nd half while having tea. Might have done a bit more but started at 7:15, finished at 9:15 and wanted my tea. Plus I have swimming at 06:45 - I will be slow tomorrow and draft mid pack when I can.
Did 2:45 on the turbo last week. I'm a stubborn bugger and whilst I would prefer lots of sunny days cycling if it isn't an option I'll do it on the turbo.
My marathon training last year was nearly all in the dark. Probably 4/5 long runs done after work. Start running at 6:00/6:30 finish at 9:00/9:30, eat, bed. Frees up the weekend for family stuff. Gave me a shock running fist thing in the morning, in the daylight for the event though.
Sometimes it isn't easy, in fact at the moment I'm finding it bloody hard but it will come good. Plus lost 1 stone 4lbs since January the 4th. 8lbs to go!!! Yeah!
Meface
.............Just getting it done
Wee run tomorrow, 90 min spin on Sunday and that's me for the week. If i've not lost at least 1lb by next week, i'll be greetin!
also had muesli and a banana, a roll and butter, a roll and scrambled egg and loads of fruit and a pint of milk
just run 5 miles on dead legs and off for another 12.5 hour shift once I've showered
I reckon I've lost a whole pound
If you dont think youve lost 1lb yet youre not trying hard enough.
Just think of weighing in and the feeling of guilt if youve let your team down, that should focus the mind! Part of the main reason for making this a team challenge
Just done 50 mins on the turbo, could easily have got off after 30 mins but thought of the Donuts and carried on.
Quick unrelated question though, just put aero bars on my bike and not sure of the setup. Are your elbows supposed to be as close together as possible? Didn't feel right to me, shoulders felt odd and didn't feel like I could breathe deep enough. I've set the elbow pads a bit wider now and it's more comfy but doesn't look very aero??
Yes I am a numpty!!
Im starving!!!
Went for a 3 mile run outside today- i've only been on the dreadmill lately. God it felt hard, but I kept going. Brekkie was post-run protein shake, the porridge with a banana after my shower. Going to have some toast now, cos still hungry, and it is practically lunch now!!!
Go team Donuts, we can kick those sossie arses. GET IT UP YE SAUSAGES!!!!
Hooray for the weekend!
Woke up this morning somewhat lacking in motivation to go out in the wind & rain, but thankfully had planned for me to drive a couple of mates out to Ladybower for a run..... 5.5 miles done, longest run since foot surgery
Had a bowl of museli, glass of orange & mug of tea before
Small hot chocolate (no cream/marshmallows/yummie looking cake) after run
Chicken Salad & a yoghurt for lunch.
And.... the 50m pool doesn't have an event on today, so I can swim this afternoon.
As long as I don't give into any treats at the cinema tonight will have made up for yesterdays lapse.
Go Sausages!
