Thanks Littlemisscee..sort of what I'm having..cruskets are a life saver..it's the crunch factor lol...

I'm terrible at documenting things... And I have a memory like a gold fish, but here goes:

B: Up&Go or protein shake

L/D: mash potato, tuna on cruskits, curried egg on cruskits, scrambled egg, savoury mince, yoghurt, custard, yogo, thick soups.

Of course the lunch/dinner menu I didn't have that whole lot - but that's kinda what I lived on for a while.

...I just hate the Insomnia as I have no energy for the day and also a single mother of 2 boys youngest 18months and he is full on...I'm so scared that I'm going to be a failure as the band didn't work for me in the end...I'm trying to think positive and not fall in a heap..And as you said jag there is no going back so gotta just ride it out..Littlemisscee I'm glad your weight is moving again..and keeps on moving for you...What did you guys eat on mashies a list of what you had from breakfast to dinner would be great..maybe I'm not eating right!

I had really bad insomnia for the whole week after I came home from hospital, which was week 2 for me.

It eventually subsided and went away by itself... I do remember plateauing around your stage too... My weight is still coming off now.

Hang in there... It gets better and the scales will start moving again... You just have to wait it out sometimes!!
