Afternoon!
Many apologies for the lack of new thread. My broadband has died at home, and I've been a bit snowed under at work. I have to confess that I totally forgot to start the new chat thread 
Anyway, Here is the Spreadsheet of Fabulousness and hopefully it's the right link this week! (Thanks Sayra 
)
Or, don't forget the Weight Tracker
So these two weeks you can, if you wish, move to Bootcamp Light, which means essentially that you can introduce some fruit (berries only, and only in moderation), along with a few nuts to snack on (again, in moderation).
Also bear in mind that weeks 3 and 4 are difficult weeks and that you may not see any or much weight loss. Keep on keeping on and you will be fine. It's your body adjusting to the new regime.

A person in work commented that I look thinner today! I hate caring what others think about how I look, but damn it I'm proud. Nobody has said anything about my looks since I started this job- which always means they have nothing nice to say - at least it does in this office. 
I wrote a really long message and it hasnt posted. 
No weigh in for me. Its liberating.
Today was the first of a week of social potential face stuffing events. Pizza Express. I had a salad. A SALAD. Pizza is my all time favourite food, so this is a huge step for me.
B- Cheese Omellete
D- Steak and Mushrooms with Creamy Peppercorn Sauce.
Ive just got in from a PT session and back2back spinning classes.
I feel good!
I'm five pounds down this week, so really really pleased. Dp has fannyed about wanting to lose weight "with me" since I started in Jan. I warned him if he was going to piss about and go off piste, yet still eat high fat lc meals with me, and not drink his water, he'd be in bother.
Lo and behold, he is now up by a stone and I got cross with him last week, because he was starting again pretty much every Sunday night, then by Wednesday having a fuck it moment, which carried through til Friday or Saturday - then beginning again. He's not even 'fat' as it were, just has more of a tummy than he'd like. He was wanting to 'start again' (again) and was trolling through the fridge, asking if it was allowed for him to have a fucking fruit yoghurt . I almost started to answer, and then told him if he wants to do bloody lc, he better read the fucking rules and take responsibility for himself, instead of acting like his mother and putting responsibility onto others. That sharp woke him up, and he studied the rules, and has begun once more. He's going to New York in six weeks, and I reckon could have great success if he pulls his arse into gear. I quoted your losses pisses, I think you weigh about the same.... or did at the start of your journey. He trains at the gym three times a week, and surfs once a week or so, depending on the swell.
Fingers crossed for him he keeps it together this week, cos I may have to kill him rather than listen to the whole sorry cycle again

Trashy - Excellent loss!
I've been trying to think of helpful tips but I'm just mean tell him to man up
Only real thought is if he trains, then alongside bootcamp he needs to up his cardio. For example week 1 bootcamp I burnt 3000+ calories training.
I messed up yesterday, hence a 10k this morning for licking a bit of butter icing yesterday.
b. Yogurt
l. 3 bacon 2eggs Courgette
d. fish and salad
thans for the bteakfast ideas stuntnun tot and biwi
i will difinitely make that eggy thing and some muffins on a sunday to get me through a week...went off on a happy little muffin recipe finding tangents last night. There are so many great ideas about arent there, if you know to look or them?
i see quite a few recipes or 'sweet' stuff include ground almonds...i thought nuts were out
I fell off the wagon horribly this morning. I woke up with a frozen neck/back...couldnt stand up and was in horrible pain. Parents came round to help with kids/get me to GPs. Thought it a bit cheeky to ask them to whip me up a low-carb cooked breakfast . I got really hungry and had a bowl of Bran Flakes. How ruined does that make my week? As I understand it, its not like other diets, where little blips can be recovered? Have I upset the ketosis effect?
Ive been good for the rest of the day...veg sticks and cheese. And just had a omlette with kippers and veg, avacado salad and coleslaw
writing this has reminded me though, that I have drunk NO water today (which is very unusual) so Im on that now...
hope everyone else is having a good day [we need a low carb snack/treat/offering emoticon]
