Here we go again Slinkies Grin
Can you believe we are starting our third year together? We always said we were in this for the long haul, well we weren't kidding!

So stay and enjoy success, the support and the lunacy. There will be ups and downs, but we will do this together.
So Wine Cheers

Piste, is it something to be smug about when we all handed it to you?!! Though impressed you roped Mr Piste into it to!! You are officially mad!!!

Have marked my place for weigh in tomorrow. When are you weighing in BTW?!

smokinaces · 30/12/2011 23:34

Last thing before bed, I said this on the old thread before getting carried away!

I am proposing a meet up at mine next summer when hopefully Pretty will be with us anyway because of the Olympic cycling. All children are warmly invited too. We will all have a good incentive to crack on with the diets too!!

I hope you will all be able to come!! We will have to work out the date, but it will mostly have to work round our Scot!! i think about July 28th? ish

bebeinamanger · 31/12/2011 08:48

I'm not even going to pretend to be miffed about that because that took some serious dedication on your part (& Mr Piste)...was that 32 pages of filling? I only had to do a page!!!

My diet begins again Monday, I shall not be weighing in for a couple of weeks, just to ease myself back into it...I know I've gained alot, just want to ease the blow!!

July sounds good to me, DDs Birthday is August 9th so as long as it doesn't clash with that that's fine! I'm also 30 next year Smokin'...we can be 'old' together!

smokinaces · 31/12/2011 09:42

Piste, did you weigh in yesterday then? What was the damage?!

Will get onto other thread too, it moves quicker and I forget!!

Bebe my ds is august 4th! So we can be thirty with leos together :-)

Off to get weighed......

i have genuinely lost track of the days and didn't, but that gives me a week to get my arse back into gear! Now Smoky - when are you coming here this month?! And yes do get back to the low carbers, Custy is in full flow and she is very good at motivating and there are others with good ideas for meals etc. They are professional!

Bebe - I would always recommend weighing in, even if you do it just for yourself, best to face it full on I think.

I think the July date will be Sunday 29th, but that's if Pretty is here, otherwise I might opt for an earlier one in July.

GettinTrimmer · 31/12/2011 10:07

Pisty your determination is astounding!! I didn't think you would make it to 1000 posts, was looking forward to more competitive banter!

July 28th is my ds's birthday, so 29th is great for me.

Smoky good luck for wi tomorrow.

Bebe I need to be inspired/reminded with some soup recipes.

I feel quite sick today so I think I must be coming down with the nasty cold everyone else has had (dh has serious case of man flu atm) but at least it's good for the diet!

Friday 13th Jan I'm with you Piste.

Weighed in and lost 0.5! So 11st 1 on the nose, and now got two days off plan for drunkness. Next weigh in Sunday 8th, whoop!!

Piste I think you should step on the scales today, last of 2011!

prettybird · 31/12/2011 11:59

I do love being in the company of mature, level headed women..... GrinWinkHmm

The Men's Olympics Road Race is 28th July, the Women's is the 29th and the Time Trial is on the 1st. The one ds really wants to see is the Men's Road Race, so it depends on how nuts hospitable Piste wnats to be if we stay on the for Time Trial which ds would also be interested in.

A meet-up then sounds good! :)

bebeinamanger · 31/12/2011 12:16

I might weigh for myself...maybe!

28th/29th fine for me I'll go stay with my mum!

Soups...have bought
Leek & potato - 108 cals per portion
Spicy bns - 120cals pp
Tomato - 130 cals pp

I make spicy bean soup v low cals and filling
Poss buy some carrot coz mine never tastes right!
Might make some parsnip, and some bns.
Tomato, carrot and lentil also good.
Oh and chicken noodle soup low cal version nice too.

Starting 2012 at 10:4 but still feel stuffed from last night and the last couple of days, so back to sensible eating today, then back to low carb when I go back to work on Wednesday. I imagine it will settle back down I am back to running and back to boxercise this term so things are looking up!

bebe - be honest and update list - i shall on friday 'gulps'

smokinaces · 02/01/2012 10:30

Bebe, if you don't want to tell do what u did - set a Target for how much to lose. So say 28lb and then mark it off each week. I didn't want to confess to putting so much back on either, it would have had a negative effect on me.

Blondes, good to "see" you x
