Dave- I’m sure you’ll do well, they obviously want you in the team!
Jean- hope the rally was good & Steve too…
Minols- is your son back to school Monday, or has he still got his extra week to come, sorry, I’ve lost track!
Nana- how’s your FD, hope it’s been easier than mine?!
Mel- enjoy 🍷🍷🍷🍷!
Kay- did you get to the beach?
We had a lovely forest walk with Xena, & the bbq was good too, all done already! Youngest son is in a right mood about something (doesn’t get it from me 😉), eldest very upset about girlfriend, he would’ve been off to Paris tonight 😢. So a fun house here!

I feel Steve is turning a corner today looks much better than yesterday…I helped him to have a semi shower and get his hair washed, and he shaved too…he’s been in same pjs for 5 days now changed them yesterday and today, so he is noticing more. He asked our Grandson to bring wires in for his gadgets as it was bothering him and my daughter passed by too…so feeling up to visitors as up to now he’s said No visitors.

Dally Rally was quite nice about 15 Dalmatians, lots of running and playing they all seemed to get on, would give it another go…seemed a nice crowd but some stayed with their friends, chatted about…looks like they meet every two months.

Hedgehog..
Hope your household cheers up..it is sad when planned things get cancelled..he’s bound to be sad…glad you got the bbq done and weather kind..I am missing my forest walks not keen on my own…

Dave..
I feel like a drink..better be fast as should be fasting..😂

I feel really tired tonight very drained…will be in bed soon…struggled with my evening walk…

Jean- not surprising that you’re tired, long days, lots of driving not to mention the worry, & doing it all on yoyr own! Quick 🍷 & an early night!
Dave- wish I did drink, might help! Haven’t for 4 years now, can’t even stand the smell anymore & nor the tipsy feeling! Hubby does like 🍷, he’s had some, probably not enough😂…eldest had some vodka last night!
Xena has a new plastic bottle to chew, she’s happy anyway!!

Evening everyone,

Yesterdays fast day went well but it’s been really hard today have had my meal and I’m still hungry. Luckily my husband embraces the 5:2 way of life as I don’t think I would have stuck it out if he’d been having lunch in front of me.

Jean hopefully Steve can go with you to the next Dally Rally and glad he is up to having visitors always a good sign. Have a good nights sleep.

Hedgehogs glad you enjoyed the BBQ trying times with your sons – Hope they’re feeling happier soon.

Dave have a good day at bowls.

Have some wine Jean then off to bed.The only time I have ever had alcohol in the house is at Christmas or New year’s Eve.Never drank at home when I was single too,mam and dad were T total.My next door neighbor when he was alive was always giving me bottles of good wine,he was in a wine club, I gave them all to my daughter.

Jean- hope Steve keeps on improving & can soon come home.
Dave- hope your bowling goes well!
Minols- if it is a school day hope your son gets off okay…
Kay- is it a work day or a day off?
Nana- are you out somewhere nice today?
Mel- enjoy the holiday!
Had a bad start to the week, silly son & ex have been in contact again, met up late last night, he got his hopes up but nothing has changed so he’s all upset again. He has the present from her now which is a photo book, very upsetting for him…luckily he’s changed his days off work (as he’d planned to be in Paris!), so has a couple of days at home to sort himself out.
I’m seeing my Homestart family today, then they’re away for a week. We’re off to a toddler dance class; that’ll be fun! Fasting (800 cals) today…
Hope anyone else fasting has a good day!

Morning all – busy weekend and feeling a bit ‘wabbit’ this morning.

Boy has 2 more days off school, and neither of us can muster much enthusiasm for anyting just now. May need to drag him outside for washing the car at least. See if we feel better after we’ve achieved something!

Jean – so glad Steve is coming back to himself. Things are sounding positive.

HH – your poor boy! What heartache for him.

Morning Everyone ,

Hedgehogs starting our week of social events with a meal this evening with my old work colleagues so was planning on a nice long walk today to burn up a few more calories in preparation but weather not looking that great at the moment hopefully will brighten up later.
B2B fast days resulted in one and a half pounds lost so will try not to put all of it back on this week 😕 Looks like I’ll be doing B2B next weekend as well.

Have a good day everyone whether fasting or not.

Afternoon nearly All…
I went to bed just after 8 and slept through to 6, had a cuppa in bed up for 8…. park walk for Charlie and a clean through and floor wash…do the hallway when I get back and up the stairs…

I am fasting today….

Steve maybe out tomorrow..he now has a water infection and chest infection just monitoring it..no antibiotics at the moment…the nurses on a night duty disappear he was asking for a jug of water for 6 hours then it came tepid tap water no ice…pain killer are always late or even not!…the day nurses are so different caring and compassionate so lovely.

Hedgehog..
Teetotal I didn’t know….the pair of them are making them selves worse by continuing, photo books etc..they need to walk away, another year may be different…so hard for you to watch them.

Enjoy the dance class…would be quite funny maybe…

Minols..
Scraping the barrel last few days of boys holiday…much too long…I mean for the parents!

Nana..
Great loss when you are always eating out..you make me feel tired 😂..enjoy your meal tonight….I am glad Steve’s with me in fasting could be a lot more difficult on my own….

Dave..
Enjoy bowling…thought he may of come out today…☹️

Having a cuppa and away for 12.15..

Afternoon…
Jean- poor Steve…hope the infections clear up soon. Hospitals/ nursing is getting beyond a joke…had to wait hours for some gaviscon when I was last in, had to be prescribed by a doctor!
Minols- hope you had fun car washing! It is difficult end of the holidays, next time send him down to me for a few days please!😂
Dave- good luck for the bowling!
Nana- well done on the weight loss! Enjoy tonight 🍸
Didn’t get to go dancing (thankfully for me!!), misunderstanding with the booking, so we did soft play again. Most of the time there was spent eating though, they got hungry! I had a diet coke 😇 only supposed to have a 3hr visit, but it’s not long enough to go out anywhere, so have done ‘overtime’ the last few visits! The dad has 2 weeks off now, so that gives me 2 weeks off as well!
My poor sis has put petrol into her diesel car 😱 & drove it home 😱😱 …they have gone away & will sort it when they get home.

Hoping to be out tomorrow lunch time 😀😀😀…doing discharge early so he can…( possibly need the bed but I don’t mind)..I have walked him up and down the corridor and physio up and down the stairs…he can have a quiet week and then maybe some visitors the following week..my daughter and SIL will come up, they only stay a couple of hours..out of towners would possibly stay longer…thats if they can be bothered to come! Watch this space 😂….All knashing at the teeth when so ill but will they come we will see.

Fasting has gone ok but I had a two slice bread sandwich bacon butty, under but not the best..I really enjoyed it..

Hedgehog..
Time off from HS if hubby is off…glad you knew how to find your way back..I get so lost easy, the men are usually better…goodness your poor sis, I was very careful yesterday not to do that..I couldn’t find the catch for the fuel 😂, then I saw it…a definitely a ouch £87…it’s a while since I bought any…

Dave..
What a good bowling game and so close…you seem to be getting better and better…well done.

We had a a good walk then showered the boy so he is as clean as I can for Steve…washed Charlie’s settee covers too..all dry so all is good…change our bed tomorrow so all clean for his surgery cuts…

Got a grumpy boy in hospital he has been evicted from his room, was sat for a bit in a chair now gone in a 6 bedded women’s ward 😂..I thought it was real funny but he’s not laughing…he said they will be safe with him it’s like a morgue…

Jean, glad that Steve is homeward bound! I chuckled at him being transferred to a womens ward. At least he’s got a bed and not sleeping in a chair!!
Charlie will be happy tomorrow too!

HH, sounds like you were spared from the toddler dance class! So a break from them for 2 weeks, do you see any other families in the mean time or do you just not work?
Sad that your son and ex made contact again. The sooner shes off the scene to uni the better!

Dave, the bowling match sounded good. You have really progressed quickly. A close game makes it very interesting and your team obviously did well against another good team. Look after those knees though.

Minols, enjoy the last couple of days of the school break with the boy. Is he looking forward to going back?

Nana, well done with the fasting. Now enjoy your week and your eating out diet!

I had my day off today. Enjoyed a long sleep in and then did some baking…cheese scones, fruit scones and chocolate muffins. All had to be taste tested when Neil came home from work.

Weight was down 2lbs this morning so now I have to try and keep it down through the week for weigh in!

Back to work tomorrow for another 6 day stint. I think its going to be a busy week leading up to BH 🙄

Probably should get some sleep. Might fast tomorrow x

Last day and I really must get some work done behind the scenes. A friend coming over to play Minecraft… Will try to tempt him to stay a long time with the buns the boy made yesterday!

Then I need to start thinking about sorting the spare room out for the girl coming at the weekend to dog sit while we go and marry my old friend.

Going to try and keep today low… The boys are on ribs tonight cos the dog needs some bones, so 8’ll maybe have a skyr day.

Hope all goes well getting your man home, Jean.

A very confused and sad morning for Charlie, I must be doing things different, up early by two hours!..a couple of things in the hallway, on the floor to go to hospital…I do find it strange how he can pick things up??

It’s the look he gets when we go away in the caravan…not sure what or where we are going…

Steve is in a mixed ward..a couple of more men tucked away in the corner, it was a bit dark last night…he’s very bored and fed up ….have him home soon….I am already for him all clean and fresh of germs hopefully..

Kay..
You do work long weeks, I suppose seasonal is like that….a lot of baking done 😬..was it a good idea…….a good two pound off too..think thoughtfully on the week ahead….is it hard at the hotel or is there food about to pick at?

I must be careful not to feed him with baking when he’s home, visitors etc having stuff in…not always good…

Minols..
Enjoy the boy before he goes back to school..hope his friend eats all the buns, well between them…looking forward to your friends wedding that must be really lovely to do..

Off for our park walk, might do cafe if I don’t get the call…I am going to be busy……waiting for doctors rounds …

Minols- minecraft & buns is a good plan, hope you can get work done & spare room sorted!
Dave- shame you always get the best bowlers to play against! Well done on the FD…
Kay- well done with losing 2lbs, hope all the baking doesn’t put it on again!
Hope the working week goes quickly, I guess it will slow down after next week!
Nana- hope your meal last night was good, & enjoy whatever is planned today!
Mel- happy holidays…
Another FD 800 cals for me, I’ve lost a pound but it’s only one which appeared over the weekend, normal fluctuation! I can go up & down several pounds easily! & tomorrow we’re going out for a meal again as the youngest was away last time, & narked that he missed out! Eldest needs to be kept busy too…
Just training with Xena today.

Oopsie- Xena was such a pickle at dog training! There was only one other dog which always makes her worse, plus Nick was quite distracted & chatty, so she got a bit bored & decided to have some fun instead, encouraging the other dog to join in! All had a good laugh though…
Went shopping & bought stuff for our break next week- quite naughty, non-keto, so some chocolate,croissants, biscuits & crisps!

Afternoon Everyone
Hedgehogs have been to Cambridge today and went to Wetherspoons for lunch as it was steak tuesday i had an 8oz Sirloin steak with quiona salad which was 917calories plus a glass of wine husband had sirloin steak but with chips and all the trimmings plus a pint both came to £19.10. Last nights meal was a let down we’ve used that pub a few times but last night our table was booked for 7:30pm and our food didn’t arrive until 9:00pm despite ordering not long after we arrived there were only 8 of us and when it arrives the portions were tiny considering the price and everyone said as we left that they were still hungry myself included. Have crossed that place off our list to go.

Minols- hope you get back into the school routine okay, hope your son doesn’t mind going back too much!
Kay- did you eat too many of the cakes, or were you good?
Going out for a meal with both boys tonight, won’t be keto so am having a day off! Youngest has been very moody again recently, found out why by accident- he had a girlfriend & they’ve split up too- he’s so secretive & won’t talk about anything, just sulks! So both of them are miserable, hopefully a night out will take their minds off it!

A very long day yesterday…should of been discharged at 1 from the morning doctor, but it went on, I left him to take Charlie out and went back for him about 6…waiting for surgeon to sign him off, then we left without seeing him. Well they chucked him out needed the bed! He was very tired but pleased to be home had a reasonable nights sleep…we are all up and sorted now.

Nana..
Such a shame when meals are not to standard…it puts me off eating out…I think holiday food when away is a nightmare..over all my holidays (50 years) there’s only been a couple what you could call good food…I think it’s even getting worse with budgets now.

Enjoy your family meal this evening…goodness two with broken relationships that’s tough….for you and hubby…

Hi everyone, sorry I missed the register Dave! Haven’t been posting and then this morning I tried and it told me I was spam. OK now though. Been doing my usual going away routine of getting badder and badder as the week goes on. Walking a lot though (23,500 steps yesterday). My first fast day will be Sunday (while I cook departing guests a full breakfast)! So glad Steve is home, he will feel so much better. Think I am lucky on holidays, we always seem to have wonderful food! Perhaps I am just not fussy though 😂😂. Will get back in proper touch next week, a few B2Bs to try and limit the damage before 1st September weigh in.

Small lamb dinner tonight to see if I can tempt him, he only wants small portions …the new front door looks really lovely, we have to make sure it doesn’t slam or we will be locked out!…we have hid a key in the garden!

Just got home from our usual Wednesday lunch – had my maximum three glasses of wine anymore than that and I’m really sick so the other four went on to share two more bottles of red wine and I made do with two cups of coffee ☕.
Jean glad Steve is home – can imagine it’s quite frightening if you feel you can’t breathe.
Dave well done on your BTB.
Mel I so need one of those mirrors.
Hedgehogs enjoy the meal this evening.
I have a question regarding the number of calories eaten in a NFD. Some people eat their BMR other people their TDEE for their current weight and others the TDEE for their goal weight so just wondered what the forum members on here so ? I’ve been having my TDEE for my current weight.

Nana- I used to eat between my BMR & TDEE on nonFDs, don’t worry about the calories so much now on those days.
Dave- I’m sure they’re glad to have you on the bowks team, it’s great that they’re all so friendly!
Kay- you asked about my Homestart family- they keep the same volunteer with the same families, so if they’re away you don’t get another one. I’ll be getting a new family soon though as mine are moving away for a few months.
Hope your work is not too bad…
Mel- take that mirror home with you 😉! Glad you’re having a good time!

Morning Everyone,
Thanks for replying to my query regarding calories on a NFD very helpful.

Hedgehogs – Ely today as usual and then as soon as we get back home a quick dash into Cambridge to collect a replacement watch from John Lewis for my husband. Really impressed with then as husband treated himself to wristwatch that is similar to an Apple smart watch but this one is made by Nokia earlier this year but one of the buttons proved faulty so took it back Tuesday morning and replacement will be available to collect after 2pm today no quibbles with replacement. Then this evening we’re going around a couple of friends for a curry evening so a busy day. Not meeting up with our friends as usual tomorrow evening so making tomorrow a FD.
Jean hope Steve had a better night.
Enjoy your day everyone whether fasting or not.

This morning at the park we met up with a 14 week Dalmatian…we have two on the route now…so lovely…she was working or she would have been at the Dally Rally too ….

Just finished off my wood painting…a pain I missed 6” in an awkward place…brushes all washed!…fasting going well, not really had time to think about it…cooking a chicken for tonight might have it with chilli sauce…

Feels like a sanitarium here…wind blowing through the house to breathe..both wrapped in blankets Charlie and Steve!!! 😂

Nana..
Good news on the watch replacement…enjoy your curry tonight and friends catchup…

Dave..
Shame on the cricket….

Hedgehog..
Your weathers better than ours not warm enough for a paddle here…Charlie only goes in water 6” not to his tummy…think I might be hungry a way to go yet….

It will be along the riverbank tonight walking see if we can catchup with his doggie friends..

Had a yellow dinner tonight- didn’t think it through, yellow courgette from the garden & a cheese omelette! Tasty but didn’t look too appealing! 796cals today so no cuppa for me later!
Hope you stay strong Jean! Don’t give Steve pneumonia from the cold will you! 😂
