Lovely weekend of eating and drinking.. firmly back to good now, i am going to be really strict with myself from now on as i hate looking at the scales atm!

FjorgynAndHotWater · 16/05/2011 10:56

Thanks for winging your -4 across the ether onto my hips crisp Hmm not sure where the other one came from to make me +5 this morning ShockShockBlush

Seriously though, that's amazing, well done. Will be intersting to see how much of it is temporary once you stop trumping start eating normally again and then consider it for me too...

Have only managed 8 miles all weekend too Blush so am falling seriously behind, esp as don't suppose I will get any chance this weekend either. 109/300.

Sounds like you had fun loti Smile

Tis water hots thats all.. and 8 miles is still good Smile

knocking back peppermint tea likes its going out of fashion along with my water...i don't think i would have your stamina crisp though would love to get the results you are getting Smile

Bibi chinese def doesn't count Smile

AlsoAvailableSober · 16/05/2011 17:19

You would ALL be able to do it, although i must confess to being quite hungry, BUT there is stuff you can eat - i am currently drinking a banana milkshake Smile

Cabbage soup diet here if anyone is interested.

Fjorn, i must say i'm pretty impressed with the results so far, especially as my start weight wasn't over my 'norm' at all - i started on a Friday (so usually my lowest). Fingers x'd i can keep at least half off for the long term. Well done on the biking - every little counts....

Swam 44 lengths this avo and 1hr pilates this evening Smile

Are you back on the LL wagon today Beebs?

Bleugh to peppermint tea. I am ignoring the fact that i probably shouldn't be drinking tea on this diet. La la la la la la la

FjorgynAndHotWater · 16/05/2011 21:49

My sis drinks peppermint tea and rooibos well, she was born in Lancashire, that probably explains all her weird traits Grin

Felt ashamed of myself so have just done 16, yes 16 miles in 38 minutes Grin 125/300

AlsoAvailableSober · 16/05/2011 22:26

Yay for wagon, nay for period. I am awaiting mine and worrying about the cornflower blue dress Blush. Good luck for tomorrows weigh Smile

fjorn great biking lass

0.25lb off. (4.25 in total)

rump steak and grilled tomatoes for breakfast (yummy)

luckoftheirish · 17/05/2011 11:24

Steak and Toms for brekkie? Hmm..not sure i could do that Grin.. well done on continuing to lose Smile

Been to the gym and did 30km on ski machine Smile.. v v careful eating too Smile

AlsoAvailableSober · 17/05/2011 11:52

LOL, might be tricky as veggie Grin. After 4 days of soup i can tell you i was ready to eat almost anything! Also I took DD2 to the CM and popped into tesco briefly before i had breakfast. I too might have struggled straight after getting up!

30k is brilliant. I would like to try and run at some point. Not sure when though. Actually i could go now before lunch as i have just reached a natural break in work. Will try and force myself....

AlsoAvailableSober · 17/05/2011 12:37

Opted for Level 3 shred as i couldn't find any clean running trousers and the sun went in Grin. Haven't done it in a while and am ver ver sweaty betty

FjorgynAndHotWater · 17/05/2011 21:03

Mmmmm, steak and tomatoes for brekker, I could totally go for that. Have fun waxing crisp (can't remember your new name and can't be arsed to scroll up again Blush soz)

BibiBelle · 17/05/2011 23:00

thanks Hots however having not met me in person before you'll probably realise that I'm still very lardy Blush and have a looonnnggg way to go!

Hair done and hoping to get to gym tomorrow but I've yet to pack/sort girls/meet with someone about some cakes etc etc

AlsoAvailableSober · 17/05/2011 23:04

Bibi - you are gorgeous and curvaceous and no doubt radiant from the fact you have lost 18lbs. Please don't put yourself down - achieving that is hard, hard work and you should be very proud

Off to bedski for me having just finished work

AlsoAvailableSober · 18/05/2011 15:50

Hope nothing too awful this morning loti? Ski machine sounded too painful anyway Wink and dvd's are Good. Lunch also sounds delicious Envy

5k run this morning and 5 mins powerplate. Met some friends at soft play for lunch and snuck an insulated cup of soup in with me. Pretty foul as it was cold. I knew i should have expended more effort in locating the thermos

AlsoAvailableSober · 18/05/2011 19:55

I am hungry.

10 mins until dinner is ready - chicken & veg kebabs with salad.

AlsoAvailableSober · 18/05/2011 19:56
