[Groovee]

New thread ladies...

Thanks flutterby. I couldn't sit through the meeting without crying so I just left after weighing!

Just had a dairylea dunker nachos for a treat so nice and loads in there for 5.5 syns Calculated using the rough 1syn per 20cal rule

Keep goingFrozenMargarita ☺

I've had an awful day.

My dad had a heart attack last night. So I found out at 4am. Went to work, home and picked up the contents on the fruit bowl and hit the hospital. Managed to get 2 packs of wafer thin chicken so I ate that as well. Did have a brownie my niece made and will count 10 syns to be on the safe side.

Got home at 8.30 and made pork stirfry with wholewheat noodles. Had 2 hifi bars and a choc shot in 250mls of milk.

In bed hoping tomorrow is a good day x

So sorry Groovee.

Lost half today, more annoyed it wasn't more so I'd be in the next stone bracket, but 9.5lbs in three weeks is still good (well for me it is).

So sorry to hear that about your dad Groovee hope tomorrow is a better day.

Really sorry to hear about your dad, Groovee. Hope he is doing OK. Dad's are very special. xx

Sorry to hear about your dad @Groovee hope he’s ok and today is a better day for you 🙂

Sorry about your dad groovee, hope he feels a bit better today.

Groovee so sorry about your dad, hope he makes a full recovery

I've been pretty good since Monday, have got 13 syns each day left until weigh in. ( I usually start with 105 for the week and count down) weekends are a minefield tho, and weigh ins are monday

Going to a Tapas restaurant tomorrow what's the least damage I can do? I know it's probably laden with oils? never been before. Any suggestions please?!

@MyGuideJools maybe see if they have any meat on skewers etc? Chargrilled veg etc for sides if possible. are you able to look the menu up on their website beforehand so you can see what they do?

Sorry to hear about your dad @Groovee

Hope your dad makes a full recovrry groovee. I put on 1lb. Massively annoyed. Someone lost nearly a stone in 2 weeks and it's taken me 6 months! I have been sneaking in a slice of cake here and there but did sp for 2 days. The only thing that keeps me on track is the sas log so I'm going to do that for a bit and see how it goes.

Sorry about your dad@ Groovee
1lb loss for me today so I have reached the 1 stone mark 🎖I have given myself a medal lol 😀

Tapas - I have to eat out a lot for work - and I find looking at the menu in advance crucial. Also don't be afraid to ask them to grill something if it is cooked another way.

just looked at the menu frozen

Sorry about your Dad Groovee , hoping he makes a full recovery. You did really well to grab fruit and on plan things, I'd have been in the cake!

Sorry I've no idea about Tapas,

So sorry about your Dad @Groovee. I'm sending all my well wishes. Hope he's okay.

Weighed in this morning. Another 0.5lbs gain. That's the second week in a row. I know exactly why - I went seriously off plan at the weekend, then had dinner at a friend's on Tuesday (couldn't help the food but I didn't need to drink half a bottle of wine!) and then DP came home last night with greasy pizza and I couldn't resist. Should be grateful it's not more I suppose. Oh well, it's a marathon not a sprint. Onwards and downwards...

Sending you a big hug, Groovee. Like Outnumbered, I'm so impressed that you had the presence of mind to eat well after such a shock. 💐

As others have already said, try not to be too upset, Frozen. Sleep deprivation is horrible!

I've planned meals for today and the weekend. DS2 is coming home for the weekend and has requested salmon for the family lunch tomorrow as his halls catering tends to do fish in batter or breadcrumbs.
I'll be making a birthday cake for him. I'll have a small piece as part of the family lunch and then the rest will probably get hoovered up by his mates on Saturday evening. If there is any left over he can take it back to uni on Sunday.

Morning everyone. Hope your dad is stable Groovee.
Today is panning out like this
B - raspberry wheaties and yoghurt (heb)
L - 2 dippy eggs, crackerbreads and salad bits
T - tuna fish cakes (SW recipe) potato wedges and some veg

Already been go the gym this morning, 2nd time this week, have also been swimming and walking. Really hope the scales reflect that on Monday.

Well done boats and keep going to those who have gained

My dad isn't doing well. Been with my mum and got her Cat shopping (things like cat litter and plenty food) then we popped into Costa which is in next and I had an apple. Had a fruit Omelette for breakfast. Then in next I tried on a pair size 12 jeans and they fitted.

Have just had a subway salad as I know my mum likes them and it means I know she's eating. She's a size 4 and ate the cake yesterday 😂 she had shortbread today.

I have lots of soup on the freezer so will have that for tea most likely. I really don't want a takeaway as I fancy nothing from one.

I've definitely changed as my dad takes poorly every so often and it used to be crisps and chocolate from the hospital shops!

The hospital is huge so plenty steps!

Thanks Flutterby81 Im really chuffed. Think were going out for a meal to celebrate but Ill be careful

Got into some trackky bottoms this morning and thought they had shrunk in the tumble dryer.Didnt think anything of it till my son came home from work at dinner and asked why I was wearing his pants ?????
