Oh my goodness - I feel sick! Toasted hot cross buns for breakfast. Followed by a birthday party buffet for lunch (mini samosas, bhaji, pancake rolls, pizza, crisps...). I've just eaten the birthday cake from the kids' party bags too.

I really do feel like Mr Creosote... But, BUT! Once upon a time ^^^ would have been normal everyday type eating! So it is good to have a blow out but also good to now be thinking "mmmmmm tomorrow I can have something a bit less stodgy!"

Who is this person and what have they done with the old Roly?!

Happy Easter [busmile]

I feel well and truly stuffed! Just had a big roast dinner followed by Easter muffin thingy. Haven't had a huge amount of chocolate today but did share a bit of DS's egg (I didn't get any eggs which I think is a good thing?)

Roly. I feel a bit like you, I've enjoyed having a weekend 'off plan' but determined not to let it slip into a week off. We are out tomorrow night for an Italian but that's generally SW-friendly as I usually have pasta and tomato-based sauce.

Well done Blondes - you're putting me to shame!

Welcome Wishful - by Thursday we'll all be back on the SW wagon again...

iklboo · 01/04/2013 10:36

3lb. OFF!!!! I have no idea how as I've been a bit naughty but I'm soooooo chuffed. Got my club 10 and down into the next stone. Yay! . Smile

Furball · 01/04/2013 10:38

oh WOW iklboo - i chickened out this morning [naughty]

3girls1madboy · 01/04/2013 12:30

My regular Thursday group closed, as no consultant, so have changed to a Monday. WI this morning and sts, which after this weekend I am VERY pleased with Grin
Biggest problem now is Monday wi, means I have to be extra good at weekends Wink

Well done iklboo.

Wishfulmakeupping · 01/04/2013 15:41

Well done iklboo :)
Is anyone on here EBF or a veggie if so any tips would be fab. I'm going to ring the class consultant and just check its ok to do sw as a breastfeeding veggie not sure how it all works

noyouhavehadawee · 01/04/2013 16:58

i totally commend all you who have remained good , i have eaten a fair amount of chocolate and remained good ish elsewhere , i figure now its the sooner its gone the sooner i can get back on the wagon.

BadRoly · 01/04/2013 18:06

Well, I have just weighed in (2days early AND evening rather than morning). Guess how much I have gained?!

KissMyGrits · 01/04/2013 19:23

Badroly how much? It will make me feel better when I weigh on Weds!

I wasn't as bad as I thought yesterday, had some buffet food and 2 glasses of wine. No chocolate but I'm kind of desperate for some now instead...

beanandspud · 01/04/2013 20:20

Roly I am going to be positive and say, maybe a pound? Whatever the result I would suggest that it's a) too early b) straight after Easter and c) evening and therefore not particularly accurate.

Is everyone else clambering back onto the wagon tomorrow?

beanandspud · 01/04/2013 20:24

Sorry, well done Iklboo [bugrin] - great result!

Wishful I don't eat meat but do eat fish and I have found loads of veggie SW recipes. I think it should be ok to do whilst bf as it's generally a healthy way of eating, you might be able to have a couple of extra 'healthy extras'.

Well done iklboo

Definitely back on the wagon tomorrow, just had one last blow out and had half an Easter egg and a glass of wine.

laughalot · 01/04/2013 21:15

Went to weigh today and scales were broken it may be to all the choc I have consumed oh dear !!!!!!

BadRoly · 01/04/2013 21:16

Well done iklboo Grin

Well, the bad news is, and I loved your optimistic 1lb Beans, ...... Drum roll.....

5lb

Yes, FIVElb. I have crashed up through my 10% thing, am almost back up into the higher stone and instead of being 1lb off target, I am almost 1/2 stone off target Grin

So let that be a warning to you all Wink. I have 4 more hot cross buns to finish and then I can reign it back in again. But I have very very much enjoyed all the very bad stuff I have eaten since Thursday Grin

BadRoly · 01/04/2013 21:17

Or should I have been doing [bugrin]?!

androbbob · 01/04/2013 21:18

Evening! Slowly eating my own body weight in chocolate here! Did have healthy food inbetween for my meals and I am doing two classes at the gym tomorrow, but even so - these school holidays will be the ruin of me!

Didnt go to WI today as went to Ikea instead (poor excuse)! WIll need to make a concerted effort this week as off with the kids and cant afford to gain any lbs.

How is everyone else doing - chocolate should be banned!!

tigerdriverII · 01/04/2013 21:25

Hello wishful welcome on board! Can't give you any EBF tips but veggies are good on this plan.

bean - that's great!

Everybody: don't worry about Easter eggs and general pig outs. Occasionally they happen and sometimes you just swerve around them, especially if they're just one day. I think our bodies just say "nooooo".

So. I have been pretty virtuous. Friday : light breakfast (can't remember), rice, salad and tikka chicken for lunch, steak and chips and salad for supper and a couple of glasses of wine

Saturday : porridge and fruit, fruit salad for lunch and Kung pao chicken from the Asia book for supper and about a gazillion glasses of wine (so partly good, and partly not)

Sunday: salmon and Philly omelette from the last magazine, it was vile I'm afraid, Thai fish cakes, then lemon chicken from the Asia book, very nice. A small taste of DS's Easter egg ( or one of them) - no more than 1 syn.

Today: fruit and yoghurt , then a cheese sandwich using my hea and HEb, then I'm having pasta and salad with smoked salmon and yoghurt sauce. And some wine

Best bit though is the exercise: in the last three days I have done a one and a half hour walk over high hill country, swam for 45 mins , and done ordinary walking for just over an hour.

Fingers crossed for WI tomorrow night. Sorry for long post!

Eek Roly are you sure the scales were correct? That sounds like a lot for just one week? Oh well at least it was fun!

I think my only hope this week is all the walking I've done, we'll see tomorrow!
