Pre-Christmas Low Carb Bootcamp - week 6 already!

[BIWI]

Morning all

Here's the Spreadsheet of Fabulousness for its weekly outing.

Don't forget to check out all the different resources on the spreadsheet - it's a huge mine of information.

We are now past the half way point - so only 5 more weeks to go until we get to Christmas!

But that means there's still time to lose a good chunk of weight, if we all knuckle down and get on with it.

to us all!

Congratulations on the new job Midlifemission! I have an interview on Thursday for a job that I’d love to do but interviews are not my forte. We shall see.

itsmeagainagain I’ve been using Lactulose occasionally, which seems to have helped. Without giving the details I was pretty traumatised by a particular experience and decided to not leave things too long again!

thanks @BurningGubbins I won't ask! Haven't got any of that in.... I went for a long walk hoping that might help... I should've jogged really but couldn't be bothered and now I wish I had..

Think I've caught the DC's cold, I feel rotten ☹ Dinner was lively though, ate late so think I'll weigh in closer to evening tomorrow.

*lovely. Pfff even my fingers are ill ☹

I've put 1lb on, I know why! Full Bootcamp for the next 3 weeks, no excuses!

What is that Buffy? Looks yum!

I decided to weigh in today, my head feels slightly clearer and I've been sticking to it and just concentrating on my meals. I feel better for not daily weighing, even though that was working well for me before. Hoping I can maintain my strength and resist them further.

Anyways, official weigh in and I'm 179! Can't believe it really. To think I was 223 just 6 months ago.

Would someone update me on the sheet please 💙

@Takingontheundead congratulations. That is amazing. You must be really notice the difference. Could someone please update me too -172.
Thankyou

@ZiggaZiggArrgggghhhh

I've stayed the same - and I know exactly why. Full bootcamp here too!

week 7 chat thread here

@Rshard and Lyrata I've just gone back to read the chat I missed before submitting. That's great, what are you studying? I'm actually finding it more difficult the older my DC are getting! DP is studying the same degree as me and wants me to study full time with him next year to get our degrees finished. He's crazy 😂

Thanks, it's such a delicious winter meal. Add sliced / chopped corgette, green pepper, celery, leek, baby plum tomatoes, shallots and mushrooms to a large roasting tin. You can choose any veg you prefer. Drizzle olive oil, salt, pepper, oregano and thyme then mix through the veg. Place whatever chicken pieces on top (it's best with skin on thighs), sprinkle of rosemary then top with whichever nando's sauce you prefer. I usually use a whole large bottle of lemon and herb (it's still got a nice kick but not too hot). Then shove in the over for around 45 minutes. The chicken will need to be turned after about 30 minutes. I eat it with the pouches of microwave cauli rice while the rest have it with rice.

Brilliant that things are starting to happen again for you for the better! I hope all the stress at work is calming down too, a little bit chill time can make a huge difference.
