Proud of myself today.

Went to Betty's Tea Rooms this afternoon with hubby and daughter. Knew it would be hard, but stuck with my one scone with butter and jam, whilst watching hubby demolish an afternoon tea, and daughter a steak sandwich. Have stuck with the walking too. :)

Wow! Respect foamfollower I doubt I could do that at Betty's. It is such an amazing place.

I do hope you enjoyed your scone. Well done.

It is the most amazing tea room in York/Harrogate and a couple of other places I think. When we were there last year I had a most amazing glass of rhubarb champagne - the food was fantastic too. Well with a visit if you are near one.

Sounds good, I will look out for it when I am up there, thanks. When I put 2lb on I will know who to blame!!

Not tried their breakfasts! Probably a good thing I don't live anywhere near one me thinks.

That's really great! Good work. I bet the scone was delicious and very much enjoyed though. Nice work!

Well done foamfollower , I'm not sure my will power would have been that good. We went to Betty's in Harrogate some years ago, I still remember it as being a wonderful tea room.

I think because I am only beginning my weight loss its not so bad. Give it a few more days and I may crumble under such pressure, it is such gorgeous food. We go to the one in Northallerton.

Wow well done foamfollower. Thats what I have those days also in those sort of places. I even say no butter or jam when I order it as I think about the fat in the scone already. If the butter and jam come with it its too tempting so I use it and then feel annoyed with myself for lack of willpower. A cheese scone is my favourite. I had one on Saturday but it was so disappointing .The only cheese was a sprinkle on the top to make it look like a cheese scone the rest was a ball of dough. I suppose it did me a favour by being less calorific but as I dont do it often it was a let down.Hope you have a good day

Thanks Shengorth, but if I didnt have the jam and butter it wouldn't be worth having and thats the difference this time with this diet. It was all factored in the calorie allowance. If I couldnt have things like this I wouldn't stick to it. Sorry you didnt enjoy your cheese scone, bummer when you have counted the calories. Hope you have a good day too :)
