2010 Weight Loss Club : The Wannabe Winter Waifs

[RatherBeOnThePiste]

Piste is busily plumping up the cushions and making a space for Blondes to dump the naughty step.

Here we go! Let's see 2010 out in style my fellow Slinkies!

good luck tomorrow murtette

Murtette. I so know what you mean about a clothing crisis. I have two pairs of jeans that fit plus little else. I did buy summer clothes that fit me in the end, but now it's colder I don't really have much, this time last year ineas a whole lot bigger.

I need Gok. >

I need someone to tell me what to buy to suit me now.

And yes bebe I certainly feel the cold more now, ESP my shoulders, back actually my total top half!
( Clearly my arse still has sufficient padding not to feel the cold!)

Right ladies, I'm back!

I am sorry for being AWOL, but I was at my mums for a week, then I had a crazy week at work and now here I am, Laid up on the sofa feeling sorry for myself with a lousy cold

I put on 2lbs while at mums, and today is my weigh day (well, tonight anyway) I'll keep you all posted!

Hope everything is OK with everyone, I haven't had time to catch up with anything, so any gossip?

Finally went back on to Foodfocus and guess waht - they'd deleted me :(

I'm having to re-enter all my meals, commonly used recipes, goals and everything :(

And to make matters wrose, it tells me in black & white that my stalled progress since the summer means to met my goal (9st 13lb) at a rate of 1.5lb per week, I'd miss my target date (my 50th birthday) by just over 2 weeks :(

pretty for you and what a PITA, having to enter everything again! As for your 50th Birthday You will look fab regardless, 3lbs wont make that much of a muchness, how far is it away? could you have a 2 week 'boost' where you lose 2lbs a week to help you catch up with the 'deficit'

I know Jodie - but there is Christmas in between times!

I do usually manage to lose some weight just before going skiing so that I can get back into my salopettes (although this year, I had to wear an old pair of dh's ) - but that is usually immediately negated by a week of chalet food

I'll just need to up the exercsie - and try to get a good momentum going before Christmas :)

Budge up on the bench, had cake at toddler group...and a hm cookie, DD insisted!

Pretty, agree with Jodie, 3lbs won't make that much of a difference on the time, although I understand your frustration. My target date was DDs birthday in August & I hit target at the end of september! How annoying that FF deleted you!

Jodie welcome back! :)

I know, but its the principle :( I want to break the 10 stone barrier.

I also have a top that I bought the last time we were at Exeter Game Park that I want to wear again.......and it was too tight then (but was all they had).....

Hi Slinkies

I didn't realise foodfocus would delete us Pretty. I'd better get back on! I keep starting then stopping again - sometimes I can manage to lose without it, other times it focuses me.

Hi Jodie, good go see you. Good luck with you weigh in. 2lb gain for a holiday isn't bad at all.

I've had another mince pie today Bebe, day 2 on the bench with you

I am making Nigella's chocolate fudge cake (it is wicked) for my Great South Run coffee morning tomorrow, but it should all get eaten.

ds not too good at pick up time, the teacher brought him out to me. He seems alright now, the recovery time after something upsets him seems to be shorter.

We are having home made pizza for tea, a big salad and a small piece for me.

ive been so bad today - had coffee morning and ate cakes, and then quiche for lunch (was at friends for lunch so no say in the matter and certainly wasnt low fat quiche) and then ate 3 slices of garlic bread with the dc at tea

WW this morning and had only put on 1lb which was a pleasant surprise. Have been good today so I'm off the step and am feeling smug as I wag my finger at all of you who have been cake monsters today!

Pretty - given how much you'll have iost, 3lbs won't be noticeabe but I know what you mean! I think last week has scuppered my chances of being 12st by DD's birthday and being back at pre-preg weight by my birthday. Whilst I only put on 1lb, that's another 1lb to lose and, of course, there's one week less to go so I have 4lbs to lose in 2 weeks rather than 3 lbs in 3 weeks.

O um blondes.

If you don't behave, I shall be forced to repeat my tap dancing performance and because you are padlocked to the bench, there will be NO ESCAPE!!

and here I go

Piste - thank you that really made me smile! :o

Ha ha love the cat :)

I'm writing today off :(

Had a good day - thanks to Foodfocus :) (after the initial pissed-offedness at them having deleted me).

I've been ultra-good and didn't even let dh open a bottle of wine - even though I had "spare" calories :)

Made blonde's tomato/carrot/onion/chicken stock soup for supper.

If I can keep it up tomorrow, hopefully I'll get a good result on the Friday weigh-in :)

Well done Pretty! Keep it up for today!!

Hi all

I've just had my coffee morning, we all had a piece of chocolate fudge cake (I would guess about 8 points per slice), but that will be my only bit of naughtiness today I'm hoping for maybe another 1/2 lb loss tomorrow.

Are we all off the naughty step today? Well done Pretty, you're not on it.

That cat made me smile Piste!

My friend told me she thinks i look like I've lost weight, it must be the running

I've done Day 19 of the Shred now: I seem to be getting back into the "Zone" :)

Been very good this morning: porrdige with balcberries and wee bit of cinnamon for breakfast and my usual orange juice but nothing else since.

However: I will be having a square sausage with ketchup roll for lunch - but I did walk briskly for 20 minutes in my MBTs to get them :) (I volunteered to go and get them to counter some of the damage......)

Well done GT on resisting temptation and only having one slice. Not sure I could have been as good.

Good Luck to the Friday Flange for weighing in tomorrow. I know I will have sts, so be ready to cheer me up. Thing is I think I may have reached an optimum weight or be near it at least Does that sound a loony idea ?!

well done murtette for only gaining a lb after your holiday

jodie, how did you do yesterday?

im still sitting on the bench, ive been very good today - have just made bns, tho was a tad spicy - just like me but i feel that i should stay on it for a bit longer as was soooooooooooo naughty

i fear there will be a gain tomorrow of a few lbs - not quite sure what has happened this week i was in the zone and have lost it again :(

I should be called a Wannabe Winter Whale
not Waif

piste, you are the only good one

Well, I enjoyed my roll and square sausage :)

Followed it up with some raspberries, just to keep healthy. :)

No idea what to have for supper tonight. Suspect that dh won't be able to resist the wine for a 3rd night.

Ds is off school from today, only going back on the 19th. That will mean more snacks in the house .........

Blondes - I'm not getting anywhere though, and feel whale like

Pretty - are you on Half Term already? My DC break up a week on Friday ( 22nd ) and have two weeks. i feel like we have only just started the year!
