Day 15 - Week 3 and weekly weigh-in

Well today marks our half way point in our journey!! A quick ask of the family and everyone is still pretty happy to be staying on the rations although we're all missing certain things....

Kids - Chocolate (no surprise there! funnily they only chose sweets for their rations not chocolate!)
Hubby - Snacks in between meals and beans on toast! And most of all bigger portions!
Me - Tinned Tomatoes - didn't expect it to be that did you! I used alot of tomatoes in my pre-ration cooking!

We weighed ourselves this morning...

Weight this week :-
Hubby  = - 0.2kg   overall =  +3.2kg
Me =  - 0.8kg        overall =  -1.9kg

I havent been very active this week and we've had more  'nice' food and puddings because of the birthday tea! So I'm pleased its a minus figure but not surprised its low.

A deliberate change this week has been to swap our plates to smaller ones - makeing the food look bigger / more!
Not so deliberate, i keep forgetting to take photos till we're half way through / finished!!!

Breakfast

Toast and Jam or  Cornflakes

Lunch

Cheese Sandwiches or egg and cress sandwiches

Supper

Mashed Swede & Potato, Carrots, Gammon

Day 8 - Week 2 on rationing and weekly Weigh In!

We've made it through our first week of rationing!! We celebrated by, well, staying on the rationing!!

We weighed ourselves this morning...

Weight this week :-
Hubby  = +3.4 kg
Me = - 1.1 kg

I'm not listing the childrens, but will keep an eye on it at home.

We didn't start this as a diet plan, but quite a few people on facebook have asked if we've lost weight so I though we'd include it. I I have no idea how to explain this difference between us? Mines quite obvious , no snacking etc but for hubby to have put on quite a bit is confusing!? The only thing I can think of is that rationing was designed to put  people into their healthiest position, so a slightly underweight hubby may well 'bulk up' on it? where as overweight me would lose weight? what do you think?
