Lardy Ladies 2011 Slimming our way to Summer .

[Tortoise]

New thread. Let's keep positive and on track.
Weight today 12st st 8 1/4.

I've been making DS's birthday cake today, which means I've been nibbling away at discarded chocolate cake and buttercream.

Mmmm chocolate cake, my favourite!

Have got a bit complacent this week and have stayed the same, will try harder next week

just completely scoffed had KFC

It's not normally my thang, but it was very nice.

Went out last night to a friends and refrained from ALL nibbles and goodies [pat on back]

You did better than me Furball I went to friends last night for a BBQ, I wasnt too bad, but then I made some Eton mess and had 2 large portions, it was delish. Went to the gym this morning

We went out to Pizza Hut last night for DS's birthday tea. It's impossible not to overindulge in Pizza Hut. I can't see the weight loss being maintained for the end of the week!

Hiya, I'm hoping to join in here, this seems like the best one for me. I'm 13.6 today which I've overindulged the last few months weeks and I need to be below 13 to make a difference then I'll go for 12.6 then 12. I'm a bit sporadic about posting so I'll try to check in. I'm off to Zumba tomorrow night and eating better foods than the junk I'm used to. I need to get into the mental zone and I'll be ok. I'm inspired by you all.

Went to Pizza hut yesterday Marion, that ice cream factory is amazing though.

Welcome ambi.

Right, need to get back on track again today!

Welcome Ambi, it's lovely to have you on board.

Right I want to try really hard this week, no alcohol until Friday night, lots of fruit, veg & water/green tea.

My incentive: to look good in a bikini on a beach in Greece in July

Breakfast: 2 boiled eggs, pear, Green tea
Lunch: tinned mackeral with a pinch of salt & pepper, lemon & red onion on ryvitas.
Dinner: Chicken & bacon risotto with lots of veg.
Snacks apple, orange & some almonds

Fit2fite tonight.

Arrrgghhh! I've just eaten one of dcs Easter eggs. That is not good!

Well that's a relief. After a weekend of too many meals out and too much birthday cake I have just weighed in at 12st 4lbs, so down another 1lb. I was convinced that the best I could hope for was not to have put any on. Back on the wagon now.

Hello ambi :)

DD1s birthday today. Big chocolate cake for later. Need to ice it and decorate this morning.
Well done Marion.

Aaargh today has been terrible

Same here marion.
Having a bad few days tbh!

New day today Marion

Tortoise thanks for reminding me that I still have some easter eggs in the car for the kids - given to me before easter!!!
Hope your DD had a great birthday, what theme was the chocolate cake?

How are you doing Furball? are you still getting weighed at SW?

Have been doing ok myself this week but think that I have been having too much carbs, caved in last night and had 2 glasses of wine.

I'm away for the weekend, doing a sponsered 10 mile walk, this will be my first time away from the kids, I'm guiltily looking forward to it

Just a chocolate cake small. Topped with crumbled flake and strawberries! Very yummy! Hope the walk goes well.

12st 10 (and a quarter)
Not good. Not good at all.

Where have you all gone? I am struggling big time at the moment. Just keep snacking. Rarely eating a proper meal just loads of crap. I feel fat, bloated and unhappy.
Also split yet another pair of jeans round inner thigh.
Had to buy some size 16 off Ebay because nothing fits properly and I have nothing to wear.
on a possible positive note I have an application for a job in local coffee shop. Terrified but have to get back to work at some point and this is ideal hours.

I'm here Tort, really struggling though. I wish I could find an exercise I enjoyed then I wouldn't have to cut down on food so much. I've been bored today, not enough work to do, and I've been snacking all day.

Sorry to hear your struggling too. Im on my 2nd Snickers duo of the day.

I really wanted to be 12st by the end of May - still have 3lbs to go, going to be a struggle I think.

I'm here..........to confess my sins........

sorry to hear you are struggling tortoise - good news about the job though!

Thanks for thinking of me smalline - good luck with the walk

marion - boredom is the route of all dieters downfalls, hope you find a solution.

I'm still 12st 6, but surely can't be for much longer. I made a banoffee pie at the weekend.......then on the tin of condensed milk noticed a recipe for millionaires shortbread, so thought I'd make that too

I can confirm - both are absolutely delicious.

we are away the weekend, so that will curb my scoffing. Hopefully the weather will be kind so we can get out for walks etc.

I'm being monitored for my blood pressure and have to take it myself 3 times, 3 times a day [like i can remember]

all websites state to lower it - loose weight and exercise - how much more proof do i need?

Hi ladies,

Can I join you? This thread isjust what I need! I started at 12 st 9. That was 14 weeks ago. Am now 11 st. 7 (which I am pleased about) but am struggling with the motivation to keep going!

Just realized my nickname says it all!
