Know what you mean. Came across an old pic of me at Eurodisney from many winters ago - sure the padded coat didn’t help, but look like a weeble!
What did the French do to deserve that- rienEgged on by @shelley262 here is said photo. Headgear may be of interest to @ianpspurs
I agree but am now able to restrict myself to half of a PhD smart bar and just 2 squares of chocolate, long gone are the days when I would eat a full bar without a care in the world!Only half? Half of anything chocolate related is an alien concept.
another amazing transformation, such an inspiration xEgged on by @shelley262 here is said photo. Headgear may be of interest to @ianpspurs

Serious question Re transformations - have they caused anyone issues with passports since you definitely look totally different?I need an envy button. Gone full circle!

Interesting point, my biggest worry re passport photo is always change of hair colour and or style lol
I was lucky needed a new passport this spring - as it expired - so no worries. I think my face looks very different impressed you got into US looking so different @GoonergalNo! Was worried too and considered getting new one before summer trip. Was persuaded by young colleague that it was unnecessary as he has no issue without beard in his pic. The US let me in!
Thanks @maglil55 . We have tickets to see the warriors on Sunday. Can't wait.I have a massive amount of catching up to do. Been doing a lot of running about but boys are on a 4 day holiday from scho, in laws off to Spain for a few days break, and brother drove me to visit sister yesterday to give me a rest from driving.
@DJC3 - great review and glad you got to Cornwall. That looked a horrible accident on the M5.
@Tori71 - happy anniversary and enjoy Liverpool. We're off there in a few weeks to see the Terracotta Warrior Exhibition. I do like Liverpool - loads to do.
Had the boys for a couple of hours thus morning then decided to get shopping out of the way so I don't knock out my entire weekend.
Tuesday - Bed 6.3 FBG 6.2. Still lingering Tia Maria I reckon but not going too high thankfully.
B. Couple of rashers of back bacon and a fried egg. Tassimo Americano grande with a dash of cream.
L. Nothing
D. Thanks to @Brunneria my venison was minced and became a venison cheese "burglar". Venison, cheddar , parsley, egg to bind, lettuce, tomato, 1/2 avocado, Helmanns, mushrooms and mustard.
An Adonis bar later.
Wednesday - Bed 5.7 FBG 5.9 so getting more normal again.
B. Slice of Tesco high protein bread with 2 rashers streaky crispy bacon and a cheese slice melted on top. Tassimo Americano grande with a dash of cream.
L. Nothing
D. IP into action - chicken breasts done with broccoli, cauliflower, mushroom, green beans in a sauce of stock, mustard and the monk fruit maple syrup served with oomi noodles.
Breyers choc ice with 6 raspberries.
Squeezed in an Aqua Fit class and the gym today as well.
Thursday - Bed 6.1 FBG 5.8
B. Stuck with the Tesco high protein bread with just a slice of melted Cheddar Tassimo Americano grande with a dash of cream.
L. Quick lunch before heading off with brother to visit sister. Had some M&S stuff in the fridge - the paprika Honduran prawns, mozzarella pearls, anchovies and the tuna with red onion and a few of the beans.
D. Had to get back and feed the boys after school and didn't know what I wanted once I got them home. Ended up with 2 of M&S 97% pork chipolatos, fried egg, 2 rashers back bacon and a mushroom.
Had a Breyers choc ice later with 6 raspberries.
That's enough for now I reckon!
I mentioned that last week. I thought it was just me who avoided photos or, as you rightly say, you hide behind something if you are forced into one. I've still got a bit to go but it was nice to know I do look different now.Hope good day had by all.
I managed to sort out some more before photos for my mag article - it’s a problem for many I think who were bigger as we tended to hide away from the camera and instead take the photos of everyone else! Managed to find some I scanned in including one of me in a pumpkin field where I think I look like a pumpkin too! Never thought that at the time but do now! Also did long hike this morning as working tomorrow morning so will be sat at pc for a few hours before cooking and preps for trip to mums on Sunday.
Breakfast one each of bacon rasher, egg and mushroom
Lunch hummus with celery, two home grown purple tomatoes and a bit of Stilton with four LC seeded crispbreads
Dinner pork ribs served on bed of cauli mash followed by SF jelly with cream and yoghurt.
You can't beat a good home made burglar! I'm tending to just throw things together at the moment as I don't have much planning time but I'll get back to my organised self again at some point. I was the same today - just decided to do the shop since it was chucking it down , had no plan but just bought a selection of ingredients - not too much idea what I'll do with them yet but they go together. At least it will be soup weather soon.@maglil55 your venison burglars sound fab!
Should explain - my mother used to call her home made squished together beef mince ‘burglars’ to entertain myself and my sister. I am absolutely amazed that 40 yrs later I made that typo on here. Very nostalgic. And of course I will now be typing it deliberately for ever onwards.Thank you @Goonergal and @maglil55 , otherwise I would never have even noticed my own typo! Lol
Today was a fishy day.
B: Brussels pate on a single GF cracker (4g carbs)
L: tinned salmon and helmans with a sprinkle of chili oil
D: prawn cocktail (still in love with this!) and a single heck sausage.
Also accidentally ate half a bar of lindt lindor orange! The horror! Not quite sure how it happened, but now I have to eat the other half tomorrow. More horror! Good job my Libre sensor ran out, isn’t it?
Wow! Just wow! I wouldn't have recognised you. Totally amazing.Egged on by @shelley262 here is said photo. Headgear may be of interest to @ianpspurs
