Afternoon everyone Smile

Still being a good Bee. It's funny but I haven't really had any cravings for "naughty" food since starting EE. How odd!

Going to make a lasagne for tea tonight. Yum.

Bright sunshine here today and the snow is melting. Hurrah!

Hope you're all ok. Weigh in day for me tomorrow... I am quietly optimistic Grin

Off to look up different providers of online shops now. I have plans in the works Wink

FairhairedandFrustrated · 15/01/2013 23:39

What're your plans bee? If you can share that is!!!

Glad to hear of another good day, makes all the difference doesn't it?

I'd a good day too. Weigh in Thursday.

B: fruit
L: home made veg broth
D: lasagne hea cheese
HeB 2 rocky roads

No other snacking today

I've had another good day today. I'm just about to start dinner (chicken tikka masala) but as DH is going out tonight, he wanted something heavy in his stomach to absorb some alcohol. Makes sense, he isn't much of a drinker. He has sent dd to get him saveloy and chips. That 1.5 lb he lost this week may go back on for next week!

ladyarwenevenstar · 16/01/2013 18:40

you're going good kid, well done. Why couldn't DH have the curry?

FHF -I'm sorry I missed your birthday, hope you had a great one and that your sis is doing well.

we had the funeral today. I know it's a cliche, but it was a lovely service, and really fitting. Of course I made a FOOL of myself by putting my hand on my mums shoulder as a symbol of comfort, and she thought I'd gone to pieces and rushed back to comfort me, so we both collapsed in floods... Blush Anyhow, I got through without squeaking or snorting, and my makeup didn't runWink Though the only element missing was my uncleSad. My mum said the same, that ths morning was strange without him phoning to see if dad was wearing suit/jacket/tie and what time should they leave, and I had said to DH that it wouldn't be right without him there afterwards to tell his stories to make us all laugh. And it wasn't.Sad

will try to WI tomorrow, as I am looking forward to getting back on plan (why does the enthusiam I have when I an menu planning disappear as soon as I have to cook?), but I am covering another full day at work and will need an early start to deal with the weather.

FairhairedandFrustrated · 16/01/2013 23:49

Ah Ria, am sure today was difficult for you hugs

Sis is doing good, tired and a bit sore, but in good spirits.

Another good day for me. Avoided high syn foods at my sis house today, had KFC style goujons and sw chips for dinner.

Am hoping for a loss of done kind tomorrow! Even a couple of lb would please me!

Kid your day looked good too, well done your dh :)

kid · 17/01/2013 14:58

I'm pleased to hear the funeral went well lady. They are never nice experiences but its good it all went as planned.

I'm making crispy fish and chips tonight for dinner.
DH couldn't have the curry as it wasn't going to be ready in time. He had a works do to get to and I was late starting dinner.
DS hated it so I left his in a container for my dad and he ate it, not sure what he thought of it. Me and dd enjoyed it but it was a bit too tomatoey for me.
As I was cooking it, DH said it smelt nice and looked like I knew what I was doing lol.

I weighed in yesterday, a slow loss is a steady loss isn't it? Well I'd quite like to see a speedy loss sometimes.

ladyarwenevenstar · 17/01/2013 18:58

hi all. I forgot to WI ths morning - I had an awful night and was running late. Will be WI-ing tomorrow and getting on plan, probably a green day tomorrow.

grinningbee · 17/01/2013 20:07

Evening Grin

Lady I'm glad yesterday went well. It must have been hard ((hugs))

Who are we pm'ing today?

I will reveal details of the planned venture on FB. The laptop I'm using at the mo is irritating as it's missing half the keys and I'm having to use a virtual keyboard. Pain in the posterior!

Hedgepig · 17/01/2013 21:13

FairhairedandFrustrated · 19/01/2013 21:42

Good for you on the 5k!! Excellent!!!

And I remember the throwing up days well! Funnily enough I was always slimmer when pregnant than any other time. Hyperemisis was pants :(

I've had a good day so far - fruit & yog breakfast, chick noodle soup lunch & chilli chick dinner.

Sitting here stuffed.

Huffpot · 21/01/2013 11:40

I don't have the benefit of weight loss as after the initial chuck everything tends to stay down Hmm
Have learnt not to have a hot drink after 7pm or I'm up weeing all night.

Off to the consultant today so fingers crossed I'll still be able to have a normal delivery with the prolapse!

FairhairedandFrustrated · 21/01/2013 19:11

Sorry Ria, just seeing this now - id do a curry :)

Good luck @ consultant huff x
