How much of a pasta n sauce can you eat? Ive a tomato onion and herbs one and i was thinking of having that and some bacon later but dont know what to eat.

BAHB

I saw your post about not being good and only a day or so to weigh in. I have just had that same sort of week......I only lost 1lb a week ago last Friday and I was really gutted as I'd worked 100% at it and done a total of 5 hrs exercise. So I had about 8 days of eating total crap, chocs, chips, chinese, curries, ice creams, if it had a high fat / calorie value it went into my mouth. So I started again this Monday.....I need inspiration too!! Why do I stray like that just because of 1lb loss when I wanted 6lb???!!!! So I didn't go to class last Friday and made up a weight gain on lifeline so my actual weight gain wouldn't seem so bad??!!!

I was just reading the Cambridge diet thread, god do they lose some weight in a week......what's it all about??, got me thinking though!!

Nemo - will be checking in later to see how well you did! Well being on here is better than watching the football! We are sporting a large flag in the window (how common!!) and dd is under the impression that she can watch al the match - I dont think so - on a school night - if it goes to penalties there will be no chance!! DS and i will retire to the tv upstairs - cant cope with the shouting at the tv etc...

Been and bought some cherries and strawberries to nibble on - they are chillin in the fridge until later! Making a spanish omlette for tea - hope it is tasty!

2mum · 23/05/2007 15:14

I would think the cambridge diet would be really hard if thats what the weight loss is. i dont think id be able to hack it. Itd be great to lose a few stone quick but i like my food too much so i think Slimming world a bit easier. Ive my weigh in tomorrow hopefully i lose 2 pound at least. Ill be annoyed with myself if i havent as ive been sticking to this.

rhysmiamum · 23/05/2007 15:17

mum2, I love SW too because I love food and after once doing Slim fast for a week, know how much I miss to munch!!

Just sounds so good to lose so much in so little time.

2mum · 23/05/2007 15:59

I agree rhysmiamum, it would be nice to lose the weight as quick as that. Im hoping to lose over 3 stone but its seems a long way to go its just getting the willpower i suppose.

rhysmiamum · 23/05/2007 16:13

I would be a wreck if I had to go a week without syn free chips and mushy peas....!!

Take my hat off to the people that can do it though, I read they have to drink about 6 litres of water a day too....I'd have to carry a travel potty around with me!!

2mum · 23/05/2007 16:21

@ thought of travel potty!

Nemo2007 · 23/05/2007 17:48

Wooo Hooooo 5lb off!!!Am made up!!!

Andyrobo also sporting the flag in window look as is most of the road!!! All the little fish are in kits etc..lol We are having a bbq[well dh is doing it at the min] so am just having lots of grilled meat with salad.

wearywoman · 23/05/2007 18:39

Nemo2007 · 23/05/2007 20:04

Thanks WW you were not far off..lol Am going for at least 2lb this week to try and get my half a stone. I have decided when I am one stone down I am having a hair cut[its been 3yrs]

BethAndHerBrood · 23/05/2007 20:19

Blimey Nemo!!!! Well Done girl!!

I had 6lb on In two weeks, I'll not lie, I am gutted But it's entirely my own fault I know. I didn't even gain that much at Xmas

I'm going to need my ass well & truly kicked into touch this week!

Nemo2007 · 23/05/2007 20:36

to be honest I have soo much weight too loose I dont feel it yet...I think when I have lost a couple of stone then I will be able to start telling

BethAndHerBrood · 23/05/2007 20:41

Awwwww fff2, I bet I will beat you! I reckon I've put 4 or 5 pounds on. In a week! We'll find out tomorrow. Listen out at 10.30, you'll be able to hear me scream!!!

thankyou very much, am going on holiday in a couple of weeks and it has provided me with so much motivation, people are already commenting which is spurring me on further.

Nemo2007 · 23/05/2007 21:06

wow quad thats fab!!!

TMMJ I figured..lol

andyrobo237 · 23/05/2007 21:07

Nemo -told you so!!! Trying hard not to laugh at DH and DFIL who are watching footie - DS is lying on his big cushion on the floor fast a sleep and DD has been taken to bed (much to her disgust - she is only 5 and has school tomorrow - strict mummy that I am!)

Quad - well done also!!

To those who have put weight on - I reckon as long as you have been to get weighed then it is ok, as you are still in control. If you missed a week and then tried to be good the next week and didnt lsoe any, then the temptation is to not bother going again - I reckon it is beter to write off a week, put it behind you and focus on the next week.

I went for a long walk today upto the local shops - probably a 2 mile round trip. I was also pushing back 8 cans of lager for DH and a bottle of diet lemo for me!! We have had choc cake for afters - not sure how many syns in that, but....

katylou25 · 23/05/2007 21:44

1 lb off for me tonight! Was shocked as I was certain I was going to put on - that takes me to 1 stone 9.5 lb since middle of January.

BUT .... Have just eaten steak, pesto mushrooms, salad, french bread, a packet of S&V hula hoops a ww dessert and a mini kitkat!!! !!!!

I gues i sort of have this mental issue that weds evenings dont count so i can just stuff my face and it won't ever ever show...

will hjave to be really good now ....
