Frugal February

I have lost 2 lbs, but all this talk of food keeps making me hungry

I am following the 16:8 too, so cannot have breakfast till 10.00am! Which is normally porridge with berries. Only want to lose about 5 - 6 Ilb but it is proving hard this time.

Weight loss this week 1.65kg. I’m well pleased with that.

How about other Frugaleers?

I feel healthy just looking at it...

Tegan..
I've had 2 crusty rolls with turkey and stuffing in. No butter, but I'm not sure that's going to make a whole lot of difference. Today hasn't been as frugal as it could have been, but still..

I've got a packet of quinoa in my larder which I keep looking at....in fact, I even bought another packet to look at to go with it,,,,

I'll join you Maggiemaybe
ie bed and book club choice

We were out today so we had soup, which I think must have had a lot of cream in it, plus two seeded rolls. Then DH cooked sausages and mash as I was going out (I did eat some). Since I came in I've eaten a bowl of stewed apple (no sugar).

Ah well, tomorrow is another day.

Well done, everyone, on today’s efforts! I’ve made up today for yesterday’s wine and midnight snacks. I fasted till after 2, when I had to give in and have some sourdough toast. Then DD2 made us a lovely tea of spicy roast veg with quinoa and tahini, lemon and maple syrup dressing. I’d never had either quinoa or tahini before - am I proper middle class now? I resisted the choc chip cookies on offer and just had grapes for pudding. I’m feeling virtuous, if slightly peckish - I’ll be off to bed soon with the GN book club choice, away from all temptation!

I've realised my dog loves broccoli; when I cook myself some to go with whatever I'm eating she sits by her bowl waiting for hers.

The pizza has been polished off by grandson now.. thankfully! I'm still hungry though, I probably should have made some veg to go with my dinner. A salad sandwich might be in order.

Evening Oldmeg and fellow Frugeleers

WW well done!

Hopefully will get on the scales tomorrow.
I haven't weighed myself as yet,
So will not know if I have lost anything.
Seem to have developed a scales phobia.

Usual fruit, oats and yogurt, small glass off orange juice and Coffee for breakfast. (10:30am)

Apple for snack

Pork chop (no fat)
Sprouts and carrots
Roast potatoes made with low cal sunflower spray (5 sprays)
Table spoon of stuffing
Small amount of gravy.

Will check in tomorrow fingers crossed will have braved the scales

I’m not sure how I managed it though. Talk about stumbling from day to day. I think maybe stopping having a glass of red wine every evening is the biggest factor.

Great news WW ??

tegan and me in fact it would be worrying

I had my scone and latte at John Lewis so I'm only having a small meal tonight. Have been shopping for DGD's birthday; if only using a credit card could automatically lose weight at the same time I'd be sylph like....

Well done, whitewave!

Oh I’ve lost 1lb this week! So that’s ok.

Although we had roast chicken tonight with roast potatoes.

I’ll be watching you and that pizza MissA ???

I've wrapped it up and put it in the fridge, hoping grandson might munch it later. Garlic bread has gone out for the birds/foxes.
Anyway, moving swiftly on, I had the remains of the chicken casserole for my dinner, with a jacket potato.

Step away from it now! Then get the bin and chuck it in.

Its stuffed crust though.. what a waste! even though I know it would give me heartburn.

Don’t do it!

Cavewoman just send me your address ?

Really frugal meal tonight. Cooked lamb’s liver and onions. Enough to feed a family of four for £1.05, but as we are only the two of us, the dogs had half the liver. I only ate the onion gravy, and mashed broccoli ? but it was delicious.

I'm being sorely tempted. I cooked pizza and garlic bread for my grandsons. They've gone off into the bedroom, and left some, uneaten.. and some cheesy coleslaw. I really want to finish the lot!

Send them to me OldMeg. I,m in soup mode!
Or even better,roasted carrots with
