The Big Fat List and the Days of Doom (TM) Part IX - The One With A Wedding and Some Weightloss

[grinningbee]

Here we are again - new thread time! Can you believe we're on our 9th one?

I've been down to DFS and got us some new squidgy sofas. Feel free to add anything else you like

I get 6 He in total so i am having three of each. Struggling to eat them all tbh.

Have a dilemma about going out to dinner tmw night. Prob going to a kid friendly place like TGi's - what on earth can I eat?

Right very short list tonight dont know where you are all hiding

GrimRiaper has lost 1lb tonight thats 3lb in the last 2 weeks

ChocoloateZombies has lost 1lb total loss 1 st 11lbs

SlimjimBra has gained 1/2 pound but is still within target

7 more weigh ins till Christmas!!

Good luck to those still to WI

SilverSky whatever you choose its going to be bad, but, you can minimise the badness by laying off the starter or dessert, dont have both. Have a jacket potato instead of chips, make sure a third of your plate is veg and look for something not smothered in a sauce.

Also if you do go for dessert a merangue dessert is better than a hot chocolate fudgecake.

OR just go, eat and enjoy and work super hard the rest of the week! [hgrin]

Welcome SilverSky

Sorry I was AWOL last night. I was minding a friends 2 children while she was moving (her mum has only just died and shes moving in with her dad). She was meant to be back by 4 but got stuck in traffic and didn't get back till 6.30-ish which blew me out for getting to WI but thats ok.

I'll debate going Saturday morning to a group just to WI.

Glad its not just me FHF...I've had scan bran today as my HE so have two left for tonight if hunger strikes. Am going to try total greek yoghurt on it with chicken(got the idea from the latest mag) and got some gorgeous strawberries from th hospital today so may also make strawberries and free cream :-D

I honestly need to pull my finger out. I've been doing SW for nearly a year and only lost 1 stone 1lb :-(

Anyhow this was B was scan bran and fruit, lunch was pasta and dinner is campfire stew and mash with green beans

Silver - last time I went to tgi I had the fajitas, not too bad as far as the choices there go and not served with chips! I just had bottomless diet Pepsi and fajitas (everyone else had beer, burgers and chips!)

SW FAIL. I fear. In wk 1 too.

I had shrimp noodle salad. Was v spicy which made my tongue bleed feel like it was on fire and forgot to ask for dressing seperate. Also flipping noodles were fried but broken up and not many of them. Then I had a proper pud . It was a special occasion. But I didn't have a starter or chips or alcohol. Bottomless diet cola. The smell of curly fries was torture. They don't do baked potatoes. Waitress kindly offered me loaded potato skins instead. Witch

However I had only one syn today at home so had 14 to use and two HEb's outstanding. So I figured that balanced out the pud.

WI tmw. Does fat gain happen overnight?

Hi all, welcome silver :)

Lost 1lb this week, total loss 3st 6lb - only 5.5lb away from target again

good luck for WI tomorrow silver.

We don't have a TGI here- is it like wether spoons?

Don't panic silver, you might get away with it :) I've eaten 50 odd syns in one meal before now and still had a loss - I just had only 7 syns per day to make up for it ( you can count your 15 syns per day as 105 per week if you want to)
Tgi is an American diner style place FH - more like Frankie and Bennies without the Italian twist

We don't even have a frankie and bennys either!!

Have a nice weekend all!!!

Yesterday was 100% totally and utterly off plan. But I knew it would be as we had a day out planned with the kids, i was still in control and today is a new day!! :)

I have a meeting now at 9am which will last all day and as there's never any food provided, I have made an egg loaf to take with me (but like an omelette in the oven) with onion, mushrooms, tomatoes and ham
Have fruit and a big bottle of water with me too.

Silver, how did you get on?

Where's everyone at?

Hi, just checking in.

I have caught DH's man-flu and I feel dreadful. We went to the seaside yesterday, and had fish and chips in a cafe. I had a "childs" portion (as did DS1 as his reflux is bad again), and they were lovely, but I couldn't taste them. Did a fair bit of walking around town.

We are heading off to a farmers markets now, and then tea at my parents for Dad's birthday
have a good weekend

I'm 6lb lighter! I'm not going next week as I've plans but I'll be back the week after. I'm expecting a much lower loss as the first week on any new eating plan tends to be high doesn't it?

Anyone know the syns for: normal regular sizes cappuccino and the skinny version? The SW book only has sachet versions listed.

As boy2 is nearly four mths my hair is falling out. A lot. Bright side is this will obv help with the weight loss numbers as I've a tons of hair!

well done silversky

Well done silversky!!!
What a fab loss!!! Re: next week, can you weigh-in somewhere else seeing as you're busy on day of group? It's the best way to keep momentum going, and you're just 1lb away from that first award!!!

I had a bit of a dodgy Saturday evening, nothing too horrendous, just a few more spritzers than I had planned.

But yesterday was back to butts again had a fab day, today was good too. Finally managed a poo too senna

Where is everyone? Six more weighs and ive 5.5lb to go.....

Hi. Am floating around.
My babby has a chest infection and my toddler keeps coming to visit us in bed so am a tad tired...to top it all off I think I'm getting the chest infection too

Am struggling with my superfree at the moment at lunch due to being lazy so must try and plan.

Off to Asda today so a nice bit of body magic :-)

Fantastic loss Silver...well done :-D

Sadly I can't, which is a shame. I've ordered the 100 extra easy days book as I need some ideas for meals otherwise it will be "death by salad and muller light".

Oh no huff, hope chest clears up soon.

Also re the Superfree, I have it on good authority that when the sw plan refreshes in January, there won't be so much focus on the Superfree :). You'll still get the optimum loss eating it, but insisting on it was taking the choice away from members.

Happy DOD for tomorrow everyone :)

Had a crazy busy week, been mostly on track, hopefully its paid off. Decided that 2 stone will be my target till after Christmas then I will aim for another half stone before the wedding.

Will do list again, I know some of you thought I wasn't getting your PMs last week but I did so will post list after 9pm as usual.

Good Luck everyone

Well done Silver, fabulous first loss! However just because you not going to weigh in don't think you get a week off, let's see another amazing weightloss figure next week!!!!! :)

Just one Pm so far from Huff, come on Doomers where are you hiding :)

I haven't got any scales at home! Seriously. Will try and find a Boots or something tmw/Friday instead. Hoping to have lost a couple of pound and totally accept the first week to poss be the only week I have a decent loss.

Yay the PM worked...I'm always dubious with the phone

Geeze its chilly enough out here tonight.

I think I need some warmer shoes....I can't feel my feet!

Well its just you and me Huff

Huffpot lost 2lb total loss 1 stone 3.5lbs

ChocolateZombie gained 0.5lb total loss 1 stone 10.5lbs

Well done Huff :)

Good luck FHF for your WI.

6 more weigh in's till Christmas!

Sorry guys, I was out last night and missed DoD. Thought seeing as it was a 1.5lb gain it would have knocked the balance of the list a bit! I'm still in target though (1lb over my 10 st target) so its ok, just not to be repeated this week!
Good work Huff :o

Well done girlies :)

I went to an afternoon class, lost half lb. total loss is 3st 6.5 lb only 5lb to get back to 8st target!! And I WILL be there for Christmas, I WILL...!!!!!!

Good going everyone.

I'm dreading Christmas. Him Indoors loves everything foodie about it. Think I will have to ask Santa to bring me
tons of willpower.
