at least you did only smell... i would've eaten too!!

Sunshine78 · 20/09/2007 12:08

He put salt and vinegar on them and I hate that! I've just had fun reading other peoples profiles so I've added mine. We seem to have quite a mix of people. Am having a really boring day at work today but at least there is no food here so I'm kept away from temptation!

SleeplessInTheStaceym11House · 20/09/2007 12:23

right so so far today i have had, a bowl of shreddies with full fat milk (its what the kids have and i have no other milk at all) and just had a bowl of chicken casserole left oer from last night. not too bad!

giving up smoking atm too tho so am overly stressed. walking to town later to buy essential fruit and veg for week! hopefully will eat nothing till dinner.

although dh wants bacon, egg, chips and beans! crap so i shall be mainly eating omeltte i think!

doublethelovedoublethekisses · 20/09/2007 12:25

mmmm... i fear salt and vinegar would only have made it worse for me! my 2 have just woken up from nap and thanks to mn (very addictive) i still haven't done any housework!

sugar34plum · 20/09/2007 12:27

i just nicked half dd's crompet with a little peanut butter on. but i have been up and down stairs at least 15 times so far with rat bag kids and ot had lunch yet. Was going to have a micro macaroni cheese till isaw it was 600 calories!!!

Hardly any food till i go shopping think there may be some slim fast lurking in the back of the cupboard. yum yum thats my lunch.

or i can eat a tin of makerel and stink!!!

Sunshine78 · 20/09/2007 12:28

Great to add to my stress its theres a rumour going round office its staff assessment day ie day to tell me off (last year cried for a week afterwards!) Not good for avoiding chocolate!

doublethelovedoublethekisses · 20/09/2007 12:31

i haven't had anything to eat all day! don't suppose that's the way to do it. will have to try and find something that doesn't involve pinching things off kids plates!

Sunshine78 · 20/09/2007 12:36

Have got a yummy salad and humus for lunch (with rice cakes as a treat!) Cant wait till 1 when I'm allowed to eat it!

sugar34plum · 20/09/2007 12:40

i think first week is the worst isnt it? when all we can do is obsess about food?

Sunshine78 · 20/09/2007 12:45

I seem to always obsess about food!

Eddas · 20/09/2007 12:49

i'm in Kent sugar, want me to do your shopping with you

Glad there's so many people joining me, i really need the support

So far i've been good today. Had a cuppa and fruit and fibre. That's it. Just about to have a ham salal, well maybe chicken salad. DH is making fish cakes for dinner tonight,yum.

My stats are 16 at the top 18 bottom(hence lardy butt!) I wnat to be 12 on top and 14 on bottom AT LEAST. We'll see

i just ate a custard cream biscuit didnt even realise, just took one as i got ds one!

doublethelovedoublethekisses · 20/09/2007 12:51

i only obsess about food when i'm trying not to eat it! not much in atm so had to settle for a cheese sandwich and one of the kids yogs (only ones ive got) gonna take a walk after lunch to try and make up for it!

sugar34plum · 20/09/2007 12:54

I had low fat scrambled egg with ham and a tiny bit of cheese in for lunch and a glass of water.

Quootiepie · 20/09/2007 12:58

Ended up having 2 fried eggs and a few chips (didn't feel like them, can't eat when tired!) so not toooo bad. But a bowl of weetos, 2 fried eggs and some chips is hardly great stuff!

Quootiepie · 20/09/2007 12:58

How can you get a low fat scrambled egg??

doublethelovedoublethekisses · 20/09/2007 13:12

i've just weighed myself and i'm currently 14 st 10lb... if making this known to you all (even if i don't know any of you in rl) does not shame me into doing something about it nothing will !!

Eddas · 20/09/2007 13:18

double, i felt like that when I weighed myself, although i've known since having ds(5 months ago) that i was this weight, well obv not straight away but YKWIM!

Does anyone want me to do a list of how we all get on each week eg

Eddas put on 3lbs(see i'm confident in myself)
Sugar lost 3lbs
Etc etc

We don't have to, just thought i'd ask. If you do want me to i'll write down the start off weights then do the changes each monday.

OP posts:
Sunshine78 · 20/09/2007 13:21

sounds like a good idead to me. My start weight is 12st12 (I've already lost 2 stone)

doublethelovedoublethekisses · 20/09/2007 13:21

i wouldn't mind. it'll prob make me more determined to lose weight- my sisters have both lost loads and even worse... saw dp's exdw the other day and she's lost about 2 stone! although dp insists he hadn't noticed!

Quootiepie · 20/09/2007 13:23

Yup, got to keep track. I am not sure I want to give my weight though, am definatly the heaviest!

Eddas · 20/09/2007 13:24

ok, i'll do a list for those who want to, if you'd rather not then just say and i'll leave you off.

My start weight is 12st10.

Sunshine, that is a brilliant weightloss already, has it taken long?

Eddas · 20/09/2007 13:26

Quootie, just tell me your loss eash week then, don't want anyone feeling I have told friend i've got a lot to lose, just not the start weight. They're all skinny (no kids!)
