Hi

I joined last week. First time I have done SW. Anyone want to join me?

I weighed in (Tue) at 11 st 12.5lb (5'7" tall). I set my target for 1 stone, but would really like to get back down to 10 stone. Not sure this is doable before Christmas.

I started a new job 2 years a go and have put on 2 stone.

I am amazed how much free food their is. I don't think I have eaten so much fruit, veg or eggs in years!

Today I have had:

Breakfast: Branflakes and milk
Mid morning: A banana and 6 strawberies
Lunch: Rocket, sweet potato and feta salad with an ostrich steak (2 for £4.49 from Lidl, 157 cals and 2% fat), fat free yoghurt.

(Never had an ostrich steak before, it was delicious. It was in a Moroccan marinade)

Will probably have an omelette for tea.

Well done Guinea pigs! That’s fab :) I’ve had a few Sp days lately too I think they really help. I need 2.5lb to hit my stone but I bet it takes me 3 more weeks!

PlaymobilPirate · 17/11/2017 08:06

Weigh day today... not hugely hopeful! 🐷🐷

FiloPasty · 17/11/2017 14:04

Good luck playmobil x

PlaymobilPirate · 17/11/2017 20:47

Thanks Filo but it was a maintain for me this week 😢😭

FiloPasty · 17/11/2017 20:58

Maintain better than a gain!

Raisedbyguineapigs · 17/11/2017 23:34

playmobilpirate every time your name pops up I think 'bugger I need to get off mn and order that playmobil dinosaur for Christmas'- then I forget again!

PlaymobilPirate · 21/11/2017 21:12

Have you ordered it yet raised ??

I'm having a go at SP days (I'm on day 2) hoping to claw back after a very greedy weekend away!

Oldowl · 21/11/2017 21:28

2lb off for me. Now 0.5lb above target.

Pleased to be back on track.

Well done to all those who have lost this week... and are still with us.

Weigh in tomorrow but I’m thrilled I started when I did, as my giant bum has definitely shrunk!
Wish me luck I need 2.5lb to hit my stone, I think it will be another week or two to hit it but my goal was 1stone before Xmas and it’s getting closer :)

oneleftinthenest · 22/11/2017 13:11

FiloPasty · 22/11/2017 19:04

I think so OldOwl I’m like my children, very motivated by the stickers! I think I’m close to Club ten I need to work out what mine is :)
We’re all doing so well, high fives all round!

FiloPasty · 22/11/2017 19:15

I need 1lb for my stone award, 2.5lb for my club 10 :)

PlaymobilPirate · 22/11/2017 20:59

Well done everyone!

Filo my consultantbwrote my club ten in the back of my book. Yours might have too?

I'm still on my SP week (started Monday after a takeaway and a hotel breakfast over the weekend - DPs birthday) hoping for a decent loss after maintaining last week

FiloPasty · 22/11/2017 21:11

No mine didn’t and the girl helper who does the weigh in’s isn’t very supportive because I think is going through her own struggles.
I’m not sure it’s good for her being in that position but she didn’t record my 1/2 stone badge.

PlaymobilPirate · 22/11/2017 21:19

That's a bit crap. I've only been going for a few weeks - didn't realise how fab our consultant is until she went on holiday and someone else coveted last week. She was crap!

FiloPasty · 23/11/2017 09:40

One of the nice girls in my group is becoming a consultant so I might move to her x

Raisedbyguineapigs · 23/11/2017 22:02

playmobile yes I did, then the little bugger didn't put it on his Christmas list, even though hes been going on about it for ages Angry Lucky only one present comes from Santa Grin
I lost 1lb today. I'm pleased but annoyed as I needed 2 lb to get 1 stone award. I wanted to get to 1st in 12 weeks but I suppose its close enough! I have been necking cough syrup though.

FiloPasty · 24/11/2017 00:12

I only have a pound to go but think I’ve it on about 4 in the last 2 days due to meals out urrghh so hard this time of year, plus extra busy at work....

PlaymobilPirate · 24/11/2017 19:17

Only 1.5 off today which felt unfair when I've done SP until I remembered I'd been a big fat greedy pants last weekend

thisgirlrides · 24/11/2017 19:44

Arrrgghhhh minor rant about my foolish behaviour if you don't mind - been so good today and managed a 10km run (oh how my old self would laugh to hear that Grin) then dc had some friends over for tea and I did far too much pizza and garlic bread and whilst I was clearing up hoovered about 4 slices & a load of absurdly buttery garlic bread! Grrrrrr Angry

As you were Blush

FiloPasty · 24/11/2017 20:49

Oh I should hang myself in shame, I’ve been totally off plan since my weigh in on Wednesday :(

thisgirlrides · 26/11/2017 07:53

Oh dear I wonder if the silence on here means everyone else has fallen off the wagon too Shock

Come on, back on it everyone, today is a new day YOU CAN DO THIS Grin
