Tea was a salmon (prob about 5oz), veggies, pasta mixed with some cream, I also had a glass of wine.
For pud I had blackberry (from the garden) crumble.

I don't count calories, but I would guess that totals about 2000 or so, maybe a little more, I dunno. I did row 10k today (on a machine, not water, and yes this is slightly smug, but you did ask) so I'm probably going to have some bread, cheese and a pickled egg as an evening snack.
Butter on that toast and bread? Unless your portion size is tiny I think that would be way over 2000.

Yesterday I had two eggs on toast, no butter, with spinach. Cycled 16km, not much as I had cycled 35 on Saturday and was a bit tired. Greek yoghurt with plums for a snack. Squash, onions, plain pasta and roast chicken for dinner. Coffees with skimmed milk. No alcohol.

I'm fat. No weight loss this week but I did go out for a curry on Saturday.

Weight loss isn't simple, I saw that earlier you agreed it isn't easy but please don't make references to lard arses. It isn't helpful.

Is that outdoor cycling?

Butter spread thinly doesn't add too many calories.

It depends. This is a good year, but Oink is the person to ask.

I've got a few in the freezer

People expect to much to quick and give in when the results aren't there instantly.

Butter and Marmite don't go - too greasy. For me, butter on bread is for soup, or on its own. Anyway, my guess is breakfast 300 cals, lunch 400 (I'm sure this one is right at least), snack 200, tea 1300 - so, yeah, you are probably right that it is over 2000.

Butter and Marmite on bread doesn't go, but melted butter and a Marmite on toast (both thinly spread) goes very well!

Butter on crusty French or English bread, thickly spread, is divine. No need for it in sandwiches.

I prefer marmite on its own. I don't use butter in sandwiches as there's usually some other condiment that goes better (pickle, mayo, ketchup or what have you) and you don't need both.

I've been in Canada 10 years and still continue my crusade for butter in sandwiches in the place of mayo, honey mustard and other North American abominations.

As long as you have a bit of cheese, tomato or salami, why is there the need for any of those spreads? It just makes for a soggy sandwich.

If you like white, vinegary pus then knock yourself out. It's a pale substitute for butter though.

If there is tomato or cucumber then I agree. Cheese on it's own is too dry, so I like some chutney or pickle to contrast the cheese.

Well, you clearly have a strong aversion to it. I suppose this means that you don't ever have egg or tuna sandwiches?

The only egg sandwiches I ever eat are the very occasional fried egg and cheese butty that doesn't need mayo. Tuna Mayo? Rarely.

Outdoor cycling. Mostly on trails.

Thanks, I'm quite chuffed with myself. Have cycled about 70km this week. I arrive back home a red faced sweaty lump and my husband hasn't even broken a sweat.

Buy it now! I don't know where you live but the best thing is to go down to Steveston and get from a commercial fishing boat. The runs have been really big this year and its predicted that we'll get another massive run which should take us into the third week of Sept. I'm sockeyeed out though and have been targeting the bigger Chinook lately.
