Hope you're feeling better this morning @britney Flowers

Shedders · 25/07/2018 10:50

Morning guys, Hope you are all doing ok today. Midweek is here and this time next week I will be weighing. Gone from doing it everyday to every 2 weeks. Have to admit i'm a little scared. Lol Wishing you all a good day :)

Opheliasgoldenwine · 25/07/2018 10:59

The question is, where's @chubchubchub??

itsBritneyBeach · 25/07/2018 13:45

Thanks everyone! I'm right as rain today, got my motivated head screwed back on 

I don't think @chubchubchub is ever coming back! Grin

50shadesofbeige · 25/07/2018 15:25

Glad to hear you're feeling better @britney Grin

I am ON it for yesterday and today, got my weekend bloat off already, hope everyone is doing well

Ethiopianflower · 25/07/2018 15:30

I got a tummy tuck this afternoon - I tucked my tummy into my trousers!!!!😂😂

DaisyChops · 25/07/2018 15:51

EF 😂

Glad you're feeling ok today Britney, I am such an emotional eater, if it's a bad morning getting all the kids ready I have a chocolate breakfast and that's the day written off 🙈

Went to Nando's for lunch today and I thought I'd picked a healthy option but when I put it in MFP the pitta I had was 813 calories!!!!!! 🙈 plus fries and coleslaw!!! Really?? Hopefully I won't be hungry for tea as I've just blown my days calories!!! It was good though!

Opheliasgoldenwine · 25/07/2018 16:32

I'm CRAVING chips right now 😩 we have such a good chippy here, I'm really craving them Sad

Shedders · 25/07/2018 17:14

Have them then. Ophelia. Just a small portion is about 300 cals. So just account for them. Have them with some salad x

itsBritneyBeach · 25/07/2018 17:30

@Opheliasgoldenwine same here!!! I have been since Sunday but I'm holding off until the weekend and if I still want them then I can have them 🤗

@DaisyChops same here! Omg I looooove Nando's! Just have a small dinner and you'll be fineGrin

happytobemrsg · 25/07/2018 19:59

Sorry I'm so far behind!!

@Opheliasgoldenwine 7lb is incredible!! What a great loss to spur you on! I'm doing the same as you (calorie counting, less crap) so hopefully I'll also see results.

I'm glad you're feeling better today @itsBritneyBeach. I figure I'm allowed a "cheat meal" every week which I don't have to put on MFP - your car park McD's could be yours! Then it's totally allowed Grin

I'm back to feeling crap again. Glands are swollen, bloody ear ache from the fan blowing on me constantly at night & I started my period today. Just want to curl up & eat Monster Munch. I won't, but I'm a bit grumpy. Maybe I'll have a square of lidnt instead (it's dark chocolate & raspberry- delicious is an understatement)

happytobemrsg · 25/07/2018 20:01

Mmmmm Nando's. I've recently gone vegetarian but if anything could make me slip up it would be Nando's. Chicken wrap, mash & coleslaw..... mmmmmmmm

DaisyChops · 25/07/2018 20:59

I was a Nando's virgin until today, how have I gone all these years without it!! I wasn't sure what to order as it was a bit confusing but I went with the fino pitta, it was gorgeous! In hindsight not the health option I thought!

Ended up having the kids leftover pasta for tea with salad, fitbit says I'm under my calories but I'm not convinced!!!

MrsG BrewThanks I've actually just gone back on the pill to avoid periods as I just binged for the entire week before and I was in a vile mood and shouting at the whole family!!!

happytobemrsg · 25/07/2018 21:25

Daisy I'm so horrible when my period is due. I also feel really low too. It's horrible

itsBritneyBeach · 25/07/2018 22:08

@happytobemrsg hugs for you  feel better soon!
@DaisyChops FINO PITA😍😍😍 my favourite. With peri chips, garlic bread and halloumi oh my goddddd I could die

itsBritneyBeach · 25/07/2018 22:13

There was supposed to be flowers in that! @happytobemrsg ThanksThanksThanks

Shedders · 26/07/2018 07:41

Morning everyone. Hope u are all ok. So yesterday was a good day. But if a struggle as it was one of those days where everything possible is brought into the office. Biscuits. Samosas. Subway sandwiches and cookies. Birthday cake. Maccies breakfast. Etc etc. But I managed to say no even tho I really wanted to say yes to it all. Just hope it shows on the scales. So it’s gonna be a hot one today. Fingers crossed we can stay away from the ice cream. Halo

DaisyChops · 26/07/2018 08:10

Shedders that sounds amazing, can I get a job with you 😂 only joking, well done, I don't think I could have resisted!

Only 8am and already I can sense it's going to be one of those days with the kids!! DS4 woke ridiculously early and went and did a wee in DD's room 🙈. Not got a good feeling for today but I'm going to make the hairy dieters spag bol for tea so hopefully that should keep me off the mint Aeros and twirls that I've got stashed, need to stop buying them!!

Shedders · 26/07/2018 08:38

Daisy u could get a job with me but all the slim people who eat loads would prob annoy u. 😂 Love a good spag Bol. I’m doing one the weekend too. Stay away from the twirls. U can do it.

itsBritneyBeach · 26/07/2018 10:18

@Shedders well done for resisting. @DaisyChops you can do it!!

Opheliasgoldenwine · 26/07/2018 11:21

Pretty gutted with myself SadDP and I had nothing in and went to a (pretty inexpensive) restaurant and I had fish and chips, but I did only eat half of it, silver linings and all.

itsBritneyBeach · 26/07/2018 11:33

@Opheliasgoldenwine yummy though! And you've done so well you deserve a treat Smile

Opheliasgoldenwine · 26/07/2018 11:38

You think your job is hard, I work in a takeaway at the moment and allowed as much free food as I like 😩

Opheliasgoldenwine · 26/07/2018 11:39

Mind you, it's not chips or pizza, it's like takeaway cakes/pastries/bacon rolls/ice cream/ chocolate/ crisps....

Opheliasgoldenwine · 26/07/2018 11:40

LOTS of cakes and pastries 😩
