I will point out the the diclofenac was prescribed with blessings from my then doctor for back problems and it wasn't until a chemist pointed out the complications and questioned how long I had been on them that I had to stop.

The weakening in the stomach didn't becme evident for another few years although I did used to drink Gaviscon like it was going out of fashion! ( I also have a Hiatus hernia).

I've had two minor and five major ulcer bleeds in two years now so if you take any kind of NSAIDS please be aware!!!

So today I've had 425 calories, kept up with, for me, good water intake of about 2.5l and been on the treadmill for 4500 steps.

I'm not trying to push miso on you but wonder if you've tried the white miso which is sweet and rather more delicate than either the red or usual brown varieties?

White miso is good as a broth, in dressings, and as a paste to cook the more delicate white fish that might otherwise dry out.

Thank you @SSure, I didn't know there were others varieties. I still don't think I would like it much it's a bit too much 'of the sea' for my taste. :grin:

Today's a feed day and I managed 1490 calories, 2l of water and 5224 steps. Under the calories I'm trying for for my TDEE but I'm struggling to find them without going into silly territory.

Hi, sounds like you are progressing well! I think someone has already suggested nuts if you want calories, what about banana spread with no sugar no salt peanut butter, cheeses of course, eggs and bacon... I still allow myself carbs, so dried fruit with the nuts or cheese is lovely.

I've no idea nursebean, I just click in Ocado! :grin:

Will have to have a look at banana spread sassy, sounds interesting!

Whenever you have tests done, always ask for a copy of the results. Being 'in range' isn't much help when you are close to the edge of the limit, as that figure could be out of range for you and your metabolism.

It varies from one supermarket or H&B to another but probably with the specialist items such as the ones they have in Tesco/Sainsbury's that tend to be near the Deli counter. Otherwise, I'd ask someone at the Customer Services desk to tell me.

Fast day three and I've managed 514 calories and only 1.5 litres of water and only 1500 steps as I was finishing off bits in my studio which meant sitting on my bum.

As I said on another thread m lovely hubby can home at three and cooked himself a bacon sandwich which I didn't appreciate very much especially at that time of day but I was good and just yelled at him instead. :grin:

Weigh in tomorrow but I don't really take too much notice of this one. To me the Monday morning one is the clincher. Have is survived a weekend after being good all week?

Can someone tell me why, though there are several threads encouraginging daily weighs, I can only actually enter my info on my tracker once a week? My Withings has been great and the body analyser sends the info to my iPad but it would be nice to have it on here more often.
