Big / slim / whatever weight loss club
: Anyone else out there with 5 plus stones to lose? Who fancies doing a weekly weigh in with me? ******NEW THREAD*****..old one got too big..unlike us 8-)
(959 messages)
whenever i go to SW or the like i get to about 1 stone/1 1/2 stone and start slipping backwards!
but today have got my head firmly back in the game!
breaky - nothing, was getting weighed this morn so fresh air adds pounds you know!..do not breath in before being weighed, you gain 4 ounces!!!
Lunch - pasta with grated cheese, beetroot, ham, toms, carrot, sweetcorn, chicken and tomato'y dressing plus can of sugar fre red bull
Dinner 1/4 {meal for 2-better for you) lasagne with 4 slices of (round) garlic bread cherry toms and cucumber...actually on ate 1/2 of the 1/4 i served myself, 1/2 toms, all cucmber and one slice of g.bread and was stufffed as had big glass of sugar free cordial before hand..am still very full now...ooh i love it when i can so positive
I know it's only my second day (and it's not over yet) but I am happy with the calorie counting. I know it's fiddly doing the counting, but I have had cornflakes and orange juice for breakfast both days, and I've been able to have sandwiches for lunch, AND a proper tasty meal for tea, no messing with trying to make someting appealing out of what I have left allowance-wise when I've had bread/cereal alrady. Admittedly I would love a glass of wine just now (bloody habits), and I could have one, but don't have enough calories for 2... so I'm trying to lay off the booze til Friday when it's my Dsis's birthday "party" and no doubt I'll have a couple then.
I am enjoying coming on here to give myself a pat on the back instead of too, so bear with me!
put half the potatoes & onions in a dish, then the herbs & spinach, top with the rest of the potato & onion. pour the milk over and leave for 30mins, top with the cheese and bake at 220C for 25 mins. 13g fat/400 cal per serving. serves 2. It passed the DH test with a pork chop.
Well done JR..you sound like you've had a few very good days and you seem a lot more positive, less of a struggle..you DO have to get your head in the right place, so well done
Im off to park about 10 when the mindees turn up(schools on strike today and tomorrow, so dd is excited to be coming out with us all)
Have packed some sliced grapes for me and we're going to my mums for lunch, shes getting me a slice of beef to make a sandwhich {smile](dont mums do the nicest things)..kids can have ice creams tho as i dont like icecream it wont bother me
LOL, i have always sliced then since dd was old enough to eat them so she didnt choke/get one stuck in windpipe!..so i just do it as matter of course..why did you think they had less sugar in if you slice them??..and icecream..bleurgh!..unless its ben n jerrys phish food you can keep it!
went out for lunch few weeks ago, met 2 friends who both work in town and we went for pub meal..got mine, put sauce, mayo, viniger on then proceedewd to cut every piece of it (parmasean) width ways then lengh ways into little squares..totally oblivious..friends were staring at me..one friend who has a child was laughing, one who has no children was puzzled...why are you cuttin all your food up into little squares??..LOL..get so used to doing it for ddas any food above -2 degrees she says is HOT!!!!..hadnt realsied i did it to my own too
I am SO frustrated this morning. I want to give the living room a monster "spring clean" (good exercise and having DS3s christening here next week) but DS3 has other ideas.
I don't know if it's just my imagination but I think my face looks different today - the lots of water and no booze thing perhaps? I'm not sleeping well though.
HI everyone..feel a bit naughty today, but trying to put it in perspective..
brekky - cereal, ss milk
lunch half baguette with lean beef, 6 chunky (oven) chips
Tea -at soft play party at 4.45-7 for dd's friend, so ordered bbq chicken baguette(everything else was burgers/fried combo's etc), ate only half, two onion rings and bit of salad(toms,onion,peppers, cucumber) and have a little piece about 1 inch square of veyr delicious sponge-birthday cake...feel really bad, but looking back upon it, although ive had bread twice, its not THAT bad is it?
Good grief Pink!! You've done brilliantly today, especially at the party. I dont know how you found the willpower but if you had a little 1 inch square of cake, then consider it a very well earned treat! Well done you!
Thanks Rg, just felt like id ate all day but looking back i hadnt really..another party today though and another piece of cake(guess ive got a new downfall!..still small tho..
brekky - cereal and ss milk
Lunch one small bun with ham in
Dinner corned beef pie with lid taken off and thin(my mum's diet pastsy) under neath pastry
Snack - one small peice of sponge cake
Drinks-fat free red bull and fat free vimto cordial.
hows everyone else been this weekend?? ive got another! party tomorrow!..guess what my treat will be!!
I'm sure you'll be ok from having a couple of small pieces of cake over the weekend as it's a special occasion. As long as it doesn't become a regular occurrence you'll be fine!
I've been bad this week all in all. I wont be surprised if i put on weight at tomorrow's weigh in. Last night i got p1ssed again on wine and ended up having jumbo sausage and chips from the chippy AND almost a whole swiss roll before DP turned up with the chips!! I really have to pull my belt in and get back on track from tomorrow otherwise i wont lose any more weight!
Oh and i've decided that i'm going to give up wine completely. Do any of you get really drunk on one drink in particular but can go on for hours and hours drinking a different drink and you're fine? I'm hopeless on wine, but i can drink vodka for hours!! Plus wine makes me feel like utter crap the next day and so today i am left feeling reeeeeally tired and useless. Ugh, i hate feeling like this!!
i know, RG im getting a real taste for it..habit trying to creep back in!
YOu sound like youve 'needed' to have something and just totally went for it last night..i do that i i totally stop myself having something!
i like to drink dry martini and lemonaid, but since on these tabs i go woozy straight away so ahvent botherd a t all..hate wine, used to like it but feel crap the following day so dont bother!
gunna try and do more walking again this week, friend just had baby last night so am hoping to be able to walk into town weather permitting in morn and will try ot eat lots of fruit/veg etc as we go to blackpool friday for long weekend and i dont imagine we'll be stopping at the salad bars!..will be more like maccy dees!
been to down this morn for dp's birthday presents, having a nighemare with builder..but staying level headed..didnt get time for brekkie as went straight from school to town so today had bottle of water and jacket potato, no butter with veggy chilli and salad..feel better for trying
This thread has gone very quiet lately hasn't it?!!
Anyway, had my weigh in today and as i expected, i put on 2lbs. My consolation is that looking at my records, every 3-4 weeks i put on 2lb so i'm not beating myself up about it. Plus i had a week of going over my points limit so i'm not surprised at all really.
im not supposed to get weighed today as my nurse tells me off as her scales are diff from mine(i weigh less on hers..lovely scales)..BUuutttt.....i have been a bit naughty and been weighed..mainly cos im been nibbling on birthday cakes all this weekend..and as we have weekend away coming up wnted to make sure i was still on track..so according to my scales, i have lost another 2lb..am accepting these losses now with gratitude i know my first few weeks were a rarity, so 2-3lb a week im over the moon with and will get me were i want to be soon enough. its took years to get this big and ive lost a lot very quickly, so am now happy with what ive done and not being unrealistic anymore..so heres latest list.
Hope everyone else is doing ok, will prob be harder soon with children being off school, so will need to stick to my guns
Sorry, have had people staying so did not make my weigh in last week (good thing, I think!). Went today and have lost 3.5 lbs! Yeah!! Very happy as it means I have finally broken the 5 stone barrier! Still loads to go but boy am I getting there!
Had a fabulous time shopping at the weekend with my cousin and went to a party that night in my new size 20 (was 28) sexy dress from Principles, fab, size 20 (was 26) jeans from Next and amazing, size 38 F (was 46E) bra from Marks! And best of all, it was all half price on the sale! I really felt fantastic and had the most amazing comments from everyone. I am sorry to drone on and hope I don't sound too cocky but I have never been able to buy clothes like these and it is such a great feeling!
Sorry, forgot to add the most important thing, Well done Pink! You are doing great. Still so motivated and being so good, this far down the line! You are doing it my girl!
RG, never mind this week. As you said, it was a bad week and this one will get you back on track! Anyway, it does sound a bit hormone related if it happens so regularily! Lets say that eh?
hey guys not been on here for a long time, bambino driving me nuts with teething and im stil so tired - wll start diet next week as eating anthing to keep energys up - well done guys x
Hi everyone. Too to post last week as I'd put on 1/2 lb! Not bad I realize as I reckon I'd probably put on a bit whilst we had my folks visiting and lost most of it after they left, but was back on track properly this week and was staggered when I stood on the scales this morning and had lost 3lbs!! That takes me to 20.5lbs altogether and I got my 10% award today, so feeling good!! Not a bad start to the summer holidays.
well done aero..thats a fab result, bet you were so proud..well got weighed yest(blush] as we go away for weekend tomorrow and wanted to know what i was before i left so i knew how much i/if i put any on over the weekend and id got down to 15st exactly..yes i know, still fat, but was sooooo..and so was dp too..have a lovely weekend and friday everyone, will try and abstain from candy floss, fish n chips, hot dogs and ice creamssee you all monday.xxxx
well just 'treat' myself to a small slice of dp's thortons toffe/choc birthday cake..mmm...had two firk full and gave it to dd..felt sick eating it!..think ive changed personalities as well!
HI everyone, we're abck, wish we wern't though it was fantastic, really loved it nd weather was beautiful too!
wasnt too naughty, but did enjoy myself..instead of having big fat burger and chips, i opted for vegetarian moussaka with salad and when in italian, went for 2 small slices of cheese and tomato pizza with tomato pasta and salad instead of big meat feasts or pepparoni ones ..i DID have a couple of pieces of some wonderful marshmallow drzzled in cho and cocoa nut tho
but we walked from central to couth, south to central and back and forth to hotel several times a day..i also forgot to take my tabs!, so was glad i did ok!..scales dont show increase, but get weighed tues so will see if i can shift a little bit more before then
Sounds like you had a lovely time Pink and well done on the healther food choices.
I've not been too good over the last few days and we went to a BBQ today where i ate loads of lovely meat so i'm not going to go to WW tomorrow. I'm also giving up the booze from tomoz and making sure i eat lunch as when i did this before, i lost 6.5lbs!
well i shouldnt be..i was starving this morn as had no brekky and ahd to take dp to work so we could have car today..then had to go staright shopping so still nothing to eat, got in about 10.30 and quickly poured myself a bowl of branflakes but was still hungry so had a (no idea how you spell this so dont laugh!) coisoint??..kwosont..there you go, phonetically..with a choc flavour muller light..i really need to sort myself out, i always cock it up just before i get to 2 stone and this is whats happend..so gunna have bite now, no idea what, has to be quick as ned to go abck out with dd??..think ill do potato skins tonight for tea?..so will stick to green if i can?(SW)..hi and bye..oh and get weighed tomorrow, so keeping fingers crossed i can get my head back into it!...9 weeks till our hol in Cyprus!
I know how you feel pc - you just get to a point, and despite how well you're doing, you just want to eat a load of anything that's bad for you!
Croissants are delish - I managed to resist them recently when the kids wanted them, but I've caved in to more than a few cravings this week so far. I have until Thursday to redeem myself, but it's dd's birthday today and there's a gorgeous cake to be consumed..........
I will try to be good though as I want to let my hair down a bit on holiday in a few weeks time!
thats the prob we have had 8 birthdays in the past 2 weeks!, which meant 6 parties one wekend away and lots of birthday cake!..have done ok this afty went and bought pasta in tom and basil with peppers fresh pasta, that should be ok shouldnt it???
Hi girls..hope you had nice tea Aero?..have you had good day RG?
well am annoyed with myself, thoroughly dissapointed actually..today had that pasta dish for lunch, couldnt even eat half of it ..fab..but tonight when done dp's dinner (pie chips and gravy) i suddenly had urge for gravy and chips, so bunged some in oven and had them (not many, but still with a butterd bread rolll..am gutted with myself..i just really want to and need to get back into this..nothing from this weekend has shown, but nor has all the walking we did, so am sad about that too, i didnt eat any icecreams/donuts/fish n chips etc etc, just healthier option meals with a couple of pieces of that marshmallow thing.
Going to nurse in morn, get weighed and will eat properly form tomorrow again, prob is ive had choc again now and its going to be hard to knock it off again..oh sh*t
had a lovely day shopping at bluewater today. Bought myself some new shoes for work and a couple of necklaces too. I'm all set for Thursday now (sob!)
Dont beat yourself up too much about the chips and gravy pink. If it was a one off it'll be fine. As for the walking not showing up, i think it's only regular exercise that will actually make any difference. Bummer, i know.
Good luck with your weigh in tomorrow and crack on with being good tomorrow, just like i'm going to do.
HI Rg..whats this then?, you going back to work Thurs?, have you been on maternity? or just off?..sorry i never read profiles so not much idea what everyone is up to other than when i speak to you on here
well scales showed 14st 10lb this morn!!!...THEN 15st 1lb!..then 15st spot on???????????????think id best wait till nurse, im driving myself mad here!
Glad you had nice time shopping i always think a nice bit of jewlerry perks you up, if i have nothing new to wear/feel happy in, a new neckalce/bracelt/ring(not pricy, just dress) makes me feel better
am knocking the crappy foods on head again, got lots of spuds, beans, pasta gammon, mince, chicken etc in to make up meals..im really going to go for it now!.x
just a quicky before we go..just got changed out of my jeans as always get weighed in cut off's..cant wear them today as weather crappy, so dug out old size 20 black trews i havent had on since winter..they were very 'snug' to say the least...NOW!...im going to ahev to hold them up while we walk!..theyre literally hanging off me, gaping everywere!, ut done have time to iron anything else!..woohoo..never before would i have been so happy to have my trousers fall down in public
Pink - Yes, i'm going back to work after being on maternity leave for the last 9 months. I only have ONE daughter (LOL!!) who is nearly 8 months and a son of 18 years too.
Good luck on your weigh in and well done on the baggy jeans!!!!
Have got to take my shoes back today as they've given me two different bloody sizes! How annoying!!
Right, little miss has woken up from her nap so i'd better go.
aw well when it said two children on your profile and i saw baby baby and toddler i assumed those were the 2! doh!
what a nightmare about your shoes!, its not that difficult is it!
Hi MamaDiva,t hats a fab weight loss already!..im like you in needing to lose a large amount, i have just been to get weighed this morn and have lost 2lb..it would have been more had i not been drinking full fat coke/red bull and eating marshmallow chocs in blackpool..cant believe ive slipped so much..however, its still 2lb OFF, so now 1st and 9lb altogether, i AM going to get that 5lb off before the next weigh in in 2 weeks..IAM!!!!
am going to only drink water and try to flush toxins out and not eat chips as id slipped back into once or twice a week with them! think ill do gammon with jacket spud for dinner tonight??
Well hope everyone else has had good result yesterday/today?? x

Im going to have to read previous threads now to see what you have been eating!! ive just kicked the bread out - its hard and i love it but unfortunately me and bread are not compatible!!
Pink - LOL!! There's no toddler on my pics, just my baby!! She's only nearly 8 months old bless her. The work thing - sorry i rushed a bit yesterday! i'm going back to work TOMORROW () but only for 2 days a week during August and then up to 3 days a week from September for the foreseeable.
Well done on your weight loss!! Normal coke and redbull have loads of sugar in them, but at least you still lost 2lbs!
Ags - Well done on your weight loss - you are truly inspirational! Wow, 75lbs!!!!
Jaz - Well done on your loss too!! I see you've lost 14lbs, a whole stone!! Makes a difference to get to that first stone off doesn't it. Keep at it!!
Hello ladies, I'd like to join the thread if you don't mind. I've lost about a stone since ds3 was born (4mths) but would still like to lose about another 5 stone to get to my "ideal healthy" weight.
Have been finding life a struggle recently so haven't been doing any exercise, also keep hoovering up food like it's going out of fashion. Hadn't weighed myself for over three weeks but did so yesterday and found I'd lost 1lb so although not great I was glad not to have put on.
I have 5 young dcs and am breast feeding the youngest. I'm mostly veggie although been eating fish lately and currently dairy free as ds3 shows reflux symptoms when I eat anything tasty with dairy in.
Really struggling with finding a suitable meal planner I can stick to and doesn't help that I am surrounded by diet saboteurs (my mum brought home a 12pk of croissants yesterday - temped though I was I didn't because it wasn't worth having ds3 puke all over me all day).
Anyway, glad to have found the thread and people who're already on their way to their targets. I'm hoping some of your inspiration will rub off.
Hi Piximon, there are a couple of us who have wuite a bit to lose, so you wont be alone(i need to lose about 5 more stone) Im sure there will be girls on here who can advize you on eating vegetarian and dairy free(if not on the thread, you can start one of your own asking for menu's?)
anyway...i went to cousins little girls party tonight, was really good at BBQ, other cousins hubby made fresh burgers, no fat, extra lean beef mince, with peppers etc put in and had a few little cubed potatos(dry baked in oven.........then...ALL i will say to you is................................ CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN..............................................................
Jaz - Yeah i'm going back to work and i'm deffo NOT looking forward to it!! It's only because of money that i have to, unfortunately. On the plus side (rather like me!) it's only part time so i get the best of both worlds in a way because i get to be "RGPargy" for 2/3 days as well as "mummy" for the rest of the time. I'm looking forward to seeing the girls but i know i'm going to miss DD terribly.
Piximon - hello and welcome! Well done on the stone lost so far, especially only in 4 months - that's brilliant!! Good for you for BF your youngest of FIVE () DCs. What a shame that you have to avoid lovely dairy stuff. Dont forget tho that you are allowed a few extra calories if you're exclusively BF. I think it's around 500 extra cals a day or if you're going to be doing Weight Witches, it's an extra 10 points a day. When i first joined WW i was on 37 points (including my extra 10 points) and it was LOVELY haha! I'm sure you'll be fine tho. I will say tho that if you're struggling to find support etc, perhaps you could join either WW or Slimming World and then that way you might find it easier to plan your meals as well as getting invaluable support from the meetings. Just a thought? PS - your DCs look adorable!
Pink - PMSL @ chocolate fountain!!! What are you like?!! Having said that, it's the EXACTLY the sort of thing that i would have done!! Funny tho, my WW leader always says if you're going to have a treat day, make it the day that you get weighed (or the day after if you get weighed at an evening class), but obviously AFTER you've been weighed so I reckon you'll be ok for the next weigh in. You really must be good now tho Pink, you've been slacking lately. TIGHTEN THAT BELT YOUNG LADY!!! <stern look>
Well, i've been farting around tonight getting stuff ready for tomorrow <gulp>. I've got my lunch at the ready - i'm having a couscous snack pot (1 point) and a muller light yoghurt (1.5 points).
i wasnt going to talk to you today after telling me off<<humf>> but seeing as tho you're going back to work............i wanted to say have a lovely day, try not to worry about your dd too much, it will be lovely when you get home and see her, she will have grown so much!
however you are right, i have been slacking..BUT..i didnt weight diff on scales this morn as i was uber good yesterday through day incase of situations like this! i only actually had 4 marshmallows drizzled in choc and 2 strawberries, no full fat drinks as aunty had diet everything..and ate loads of cherry toms, lettuce, onion salady stuff with meal.
off to park today if rain doesnt decend so plenty of walking, made sandwhiches to take (ham and tom no butter) with sugar free jellies and lots of grapes..i fully intend to tighten my belt (metaforically(sp) and literally)...haev a good day everyone...let us know how you get on RG
Hi MD, glad you had good day...we do our own variable weigh ins whenever that may be, then we just copy and paste the weighloss table having changed our own to that weeks loss/gain/maintain etc
, yes you will, you've already done so well in such a short time, remember its taken us years to get like this, for me i was 10st, when i was i late junior school (i vividly remember my bastard father getting me weighed for all to see in public swimming baths), my suggested ideal weight is just under 10st NOW, so at 15st, i need to lsoe 5st, but really TBH, i think (or maybe cos ive always been big i dont know any different?) that would be 'too slim' for me???..who knows, but trying it for a while would be nice
hope you have a good day today, when do you get weighed?
Well here i am at work, slogging my guts out (NOT!). The whole company is pretty quiet at the moment so i should be grateful that i've actually got a job to come back to! I'm just sitting at a spare desk today, catching up with emails, sodding around on the net etc lol. Missing my baby tho! There were no tears this morning from either of us, so that was a relief and as we'd had a few practice runs over the last couple of weeks, i found it quite easy to leave her with MIL this morning.
hi everyone, how was your day RG? Bet you smotherd dd in kisses when you picked her up
well today has been quite good..let m see
breakfast was bran flakes with ss milk
lunch was small piece of home made corned beef pie(my mams 'slimming' pastry-very thin), some cherry toms
Dinner branflakes with ss milk..its too hot today, dont want 'food' and lvoe cereal was hooked on fattening alpen few weeks ago so bought branflakes instead now...how does that sound?..no snacks, no inbetweens, didnt eat anything with kids while out today(had picnic and visited mams who has hoards of icecreams and chocs!)
Yeah she did get smothered in kisses when i picked her up but she was more interested in mummy's new posh work necklace lol. She was brilliant tho, especially once i'd got her home and gave her her milk. She was absolutely bushed as she hadn't slept this afternoon but went out like a light tonight.
Your menu doesn't sound tooooo bad (i'm just talking variety here) but i think you could do with having some fruit and veg in your menu Pink. Here's what i had today:
God Pink and RG, you are putting me to shame! It sounds like you are on starvation diets there! And Bran Flakes twice in one day Pink! Nothing wrong with your bowels I imagine!!!
I had two bad days after weigh in so am desperately trying to claw some points back today and for the rest of the week. I am feeling very up for it though after buying a pair of SIZE 18 cut off jeans in the Next sale last night! I never honestly thought I would see the day.
Welcome piximon! You sound like a busy busy lady! A stone so far is fantastic especially with a brand new baby on the scene. Keep posting and let us know how things are going for you.
Mamadiva - keep up the good work. Sounds like you are doing exactly the right things to shed that pesky 6 stone!
morning all..glad your first day was good Rg..and well done Ags on your jeans!, next ive found for me anyway are always a quite skimpy fit so a size 18 in their jeans is fan bloody tastic!...dp wants us to go buy some clothes for hol in morn, but im holding off a little longer, i would say that im also 18 on bottom now as jeans and trousers are ridiculously big on me and they are a 20..tops has always been on, have some things 16, some in 22!? diff shops i guess.
right well, its obv my day yesterday was pants, who am i kidding corned beef pie is crap food isnt it!..so today have cerreal(not bran flakes, i actually CANT do 'anything' on loo this morn, but have plenty of wind!..so think i will have tuna and salad sandwhich for lunch and will do gammon and jacket pot for dinner with tomas, lettuce, onion..i am making cakes with the children today, but if i plan to let them all eat one and take the rest home(dd can have one today then one later as i dont wants hers leaving 'at home'
soo fingers crossed i can stick to my word, i eed that will power back i had a few weeks ago, has anyone seen it??? xxx
right, havent had a cake..have sorted tham all out for mindees and new baby and family visiting today so have got some for them to nibble on...for lunch, i didnt want the house stinking of fish for my visit, so had tomatoes with grated cheese on toast..i know cheese isnt the best, but better than 4 cakes for lunch like id normally do..also gave the corned beef pie to mindees and dd for lunch with salad and picnicky things, so theyre ahppy too..oh and have been drinking water instead of anything else today, will try to do this all time and flush my system
Nooooooooooo!!!! I forgot to say that my menu was what i'd eaten SO FAR that day!!! I could never eat that little in a day - it's just not possible! As it turns out, DP brought home sausage and chips from the chippy Naughty but very VERY nice!
Ags - well done on the size 18s from Next!! I'm still in 24 bottoms and 22/24 tops.
Pink - well done for abstaining from the cakes! That must have been reeeeeally hard!!
Off to lunch in a minute. I've got a couscous snack pot again so i'm going to pop to Tesco and get a roll to go with it and a couple of bits of fruit too.
Ags you are soooooooo right - they are both starving in comparison to what im eating aswell!
Im having porridge for breakfast with bananna - lunch with be zero points soup with couscous to bulk it out - the odd jacob cracker with a bit of cheese and for dinner I will have salad and couscous - and fruit for dinner - and the odd rich caramel toffe fatfighter toffee bar
LOL been through this with you before havent i RG..these tabs im on, make me full very quick, i cant eat a lot at all, although i agree i need more fruit/veg each day, but honest guv, im not starving
