Yes it does. Avocados go off quickly once they're fully ripe and they're too good for me to put in the bin. Some things I can bin without feeling wasteful but not something I buy specifically for all its vitamins, minerals and 'good' oils.

Make guacamole & have it with tortilla crisps/pita bread/breadsticks/crudités the next day. That's what I'd do with it anyway!

Gaucamole is slime in a bowl as far as I'm concerned. I like avocado just as it comes, ripe but still firm and served in its skin or cut into slices with a drizzle of dressing. Since I kept within the 500 calories I'm not feeling 'defeated' by the avocado.
I sometimes succeed in eating nothing at all for 24 hours which feels more like a fast than concocting low-cal meals. From the TV programme on fasting I got the impression that eating nothing was the ideal but having about 500 cals was still a fast. An omelette, large salad and small bowl of fruit salad looked like a feast to the presenter who'd not eaten all day.
Today I'll be eating some grapes and bananas before they go soft, also poached salmon and spring greens.

Finding it all Rather Difficult this week...hasn't been helped by having to be in places where lunch was provided (when it is more difficult to make wise food choices) or where the journey to get there made carrying a pre prepared lunch was problematic, so opting for food that was probably not wise...Key Lime Pie, anyone? And this virus seems to make me want to stuff my face because I'm so miserable with it...

My weight loss has plateaued over the last few week - I suspect my body has become used to my daily exercise regime. I'm too busy this week to sort it but next week I'm going to try alternating with a different workout to get my muscles working again and push myself a bit harder.

Sigh... yesterday I was trying on satin bridesmaid dresses. I knew I was a size larger than the bride and the other adult bridesmaid, but it would appear I am a good two sizes larger. And satin stretched across an ample backside is not a good look. Back to MFP.
On the other hand - I'm going to be a bridesmaid!

Well, I joined Slimming World last week. I've found some of the rules really annoying - prime example being that apples, strawberries, melon and pineapple are all 'superfree foods' which I'm allowed to eat as much as I like of. However, because I had them whizzed into a smoothie they suddenly become of no nutritional value and worth several 'Syns' ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif) . I resent spending my Syn allowance on perfectly healthy food instead of chocolate ...
(I suspect the idea is that if smoothies/juices were 'free' some people would knock back two litres a day of them, which would be a lot of calories, but for me they're just a more enjoyable and convenient way to get somewhere near the amount of fruit I'm supposed to have!)
So I found an eating plan online that I'm finding easier to manage. I don't think I'm going to stick with Slimming World long-term, but I went back for a weigh-in tonight and I've lost 2lb ![[Cool]](cool.gif)

Yesterday's weigh-in revealed that the 5:2 regime has caused me to shed 10 kilos in two months.
Feeling great (despite having spent today nibbling through a sackful of celery and leaves for vitamins and 20 calories) and have bought in a new supply of trousers after consigning all my 38- and 40-inch waisters to charity.

Go kankucho!
Meanwhile, as the result of a couple of slices of chocolate cake at the weekend (family party, rude to refuse, etc etc) I have gained three-quarters of a pound over the last week. I hope to have better progress to report next week... but we're going away to visit some foodie friends for the weekend (and to attend ANOTHER party) so it's going to be difficult sticking to the diet.
On a more positive note, I have started doing a new workout at the gym. I feel like I've just crawled out of the primeval slime after each session but it does seem to be making me fitter. So I'm losing inches, even though I'm not losing weight...

I had a few bad weeks of feeling unmotivated, hotel stay with food, kids on school holidays so different routine etc but have got back to the diet this week and within just a few days seem to have undone the damage and got back to where I was. Just need to carry on now and get back to losing.

That's great kanchuko - I'm still disappointed with 5:2 weightloss - 200g this week, giving me a 1kg weight loss in three weeks! I'm not going mad on my non-fast days, so can't quite see where I'm going wrong. I can only assume it's because my week of bad backness meant that even my usual not-very-energetic-life was curtailed even more as I avoided moving wherever possible!
Let's hope for a better result in the next few weeks as I try to become slightly more energetic again (that is, a couple of walks a week)

@ Jane: I don't know if this helps, but I refuse to jump on the scales at every opportunity to check the effects of short-term input and output. For me, once a month is enough to monitor overall progress.
Also, two years of regular cycling, while great for my general well-being, failed to shift any significant weight. My achievements to date are probably because taking the 5:2 regime seriously has given me the self-discipline to overcome some seriously bad eating habits: whole packets of biscuits, bought on the way in to work, polished off by lunchtime – that sort of thing. The sudden shift between two lifestyles probably accounts for my early good results.

Apparently, the more processed our food is the easier is it is for us to extract calories from it - so a whole raw carrot is better for you than a grated one *sigh*. Something to do with breaking down the cell walls, which we would otherwise need to expend calories to do. So they aren't *just* out to get you...

I'm cutting down on refined carbs but love crusty white bread, preferably warm from the oven. I buy those part-baked baguettes, bake one till nice and crispy then split it and scoop out the innards which probably halves the calories. I've then got crispy bread shells to fill with whatever - chopped up cherry tomatoes and olives heated through with some pasta sauce gloop from a jar is nice and easy.
In other news all my trousers are now unwearably loose so I'm going to buy some new ones in a smaller size.

Congratulations on the new trousers...it's a good feeling, isn't it?
I have managed to find a pair of jeans yesterday that I like, and that make my legs look very very long, that are long enough in the leg that you can't see my ankles, and....the UK 16 was slightly too big, so I bought the UK 14. Which I am now wearing. (They are straight leg ones from Wallis, in case anyone is interested...)
Smug? Moi?

Yay St. E - that's just fantastic! Great news indeed! I think that brings you into the 'smaller than average' size range now ![[Big Grin]](biggrin.gif)
My black linen trousers that were (much) too tight
now fit me, but they are so baggy I feel like a clown in them - so my joy at the weight loss was tempered by the realisation that I'm now worse off in that I have NO black linen trousers I like *sigh* - not that I would want to wear them in this weather *deeper sigh*

Lost a kilo this week! I'm assuming that my meagre losses in the past couple of weeks were because of my enforced inactivity. Not that I'm that active normally, but I was very inactive...

Finally got below that big round number that I've been stuck at for a month or so, due to over-indulging and being ill for most of January & February! I went for an hour's run a couple of weeks ago after a long time not doing so, and it was bliss! Cold to start with, but after 5-10 minutes I got warm and the endorphins kicked in and I felt like I could run forever! I hardly stopped at all, and that was due to having to let huge packs of cyclists pass! Even then I ran on the spot.
I'm definitely feeling like there's less of me to lug around and am looking forward to hitting that next target (the next 10 kilos off). It'll be easier to eat healthier (salads, raw fruit and veg, less stodge...) and do more as the weather will be better.
Well done everyone else on the trousers that are far too big & the weight loss, however small-I'm proudly celebrating my 300 grammes lost!

Still on a plateau here - but hardly surprising as my eating has been very erratic for one reason or another. Still keeping up the 5:2, which is probably all that's stopping the kilos creeping back on.
However, I must still be changing shape, as I took 3 pairs of baggy trousers to the charity shop yesterday - two hardly worn, and one with the swing-tag still attached.
Came back with a (slightly tight) pair of trousers and a dress.
Now I can find me-sized clothes in charity shops I've become addicted to clothes shopping. ![[Hot and Hormonal]](icon_redface.gif)

Another 1/2 lbofff, to my surprise...I have defibately been doing too much snacking in between meals this past week. However, half a pound off is half a pound in the right direction, and today I went out in a coat I haven't worn for at least the past 7 years because it didn't fit...and now, it does!

It has been my experience that I change shape most when i'm not losing any weight according to the scales. A few weeks ago I went through a mini plateau where my weight hardly changed at all for two weeks but I lost a couple of inches every where and went down a dress size in what felt like over night! Since then i've lost a couple of kilos, but my measurements remain the same...
It's a funny old thing weight loss.

Is feeling slightly jaded and bored (although I have masses to do...) and is thinking about her dinner, which won't be happening until at least 8.30pm and probably nearer 9pm...I'm not actually hungry, but my teeth are bored...
Must remind myself that nothing will taste as good as being slim feels...although I'm not actually slim yet, being 14 lbs off the top of the scale for a healthy BMI...

At the moment I am just finding it very hard to motivate myself. When I weigh myself and see that I have crept up another 2lbs or find a skirt getting tight again, I resolve to do the WW thing properly - but then somebody brings cakes in at work or I feel the need for chocolate to get me through the afternoon and my good intentions count for naught ![[Disappointed]](graemlins/disappointed.gif)

I have decided to stop logging calories on My Fitness Pal.
I have been concentrating too much on the numbers and have slipped too far away from the goals of the DASH diet - and that has given me some health problems in the last few months.
I must stop thinking about weight loss, and concentrate on the health benefits I was originally working towards.

Although my weight loss hasn't been huge I am thrilled to be sitting comfortably in jeans which were almost unbearably unwearable at Christmas. I have lost a fair bit of tummy (tho I fear I will always have a bit of an "apron" there!) and clothes feel better. 8 kg lost since September...actually, that's nearly 1.5 kg a month...not so shabby after all.

Our Atkins diet is successful: Z has gone from a size 20 to size 16 and I am but two pounds away from 14 stone! I lost more than a stone (14 pounds) this year and have kept it off. My former doctor who is now a professor thought I could lose a further fourteen pounds - another stone. I thought she was dreaming, but she was the top family practice D. O. in this country before she turned to teaching and I now think this is a real probability...
I was 173 pounds on our wedding day: could I be there again on our 35th anniversary the 10th of June? Dunno....

Steady loss maintained, another 1 1/2 lbs off at weigh in today.
Now I suppose I shall have to start doing something sporty to get fit for the first time. This cold weather isn't helping much as I'm disinclined to do much out of doors, and jogging on the spot in the kitchen while waiting for the kettle to boil is loosing its appeal...
How are my fellow passengers doing today? Did you succumb to the lure of chocolate?

Ouch! Broken toe sounds painful!
Having had a few weeks of not making much effort I am slowly losing a bit more. I tend to start off the week reasonably well, lose a pound or more but then creep up a bit again by the end of the following weekend. But as long as the final weight for the week is lower than the previous week I am at least moving in the right direction overall!

I got rather podgy again over the course of the last 6months, a lot due to stressy finishing one job/starting another type things, it's time to cut out the pringles & eat better again.
However, I'm now walking to work, and sometimes between sites, and so I get starving mid way through the morning/afternoon.
What are peoples suggestions for fairly healthy and not calorie excessive snacks? (Raw carrot or celery are out as I don't like either). I do like dried fruit, but that's quite calorie heavy for the weight...

Lots of water and a head of iceberg lettuce worked for my wife some 30 years ago.
Unfortunately I detest both lettuce and celery.
Is it possible to port along a small container of salad for those mid-morning starvations. I am quite adept by now making a salad without lettuce.

Lettuce is OK, though dull. Carrots are not OK - I just don't like 'em raw. (Cooked carrots are all right, provided they're casseroled to death with something else that hides the flavour). And cucumber is off too - it makes me belch, which isn't usually appreciated by anyone else!
So salad would work, although what to put in it so that it's not dull may be a challenge...
