I have a vitamix blender, I was going to try and make 2 portions in the one go and store it in the fridge or blend it with ice. I’m thinking about skipping breakfast and just having my coffee, then Huel for lunch and dinner. @Chocolateteabag how many times do you take huel a day? I am craving tea and biscuits right now, but I’ve used up my 1200 calories today.

@Feckmesideways oh I could murder tea and chocolate rich tea biscuits. The whole packet obviously 🤣

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 19:36

@Feckmesideways @sevendevils could we make them dark chocolate digestives ? Pleaaaase

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 19:38

Anyway , I have done my pamper
Shaved my legs and pits , probably lost 5 lbs with that alone
I've exfoliated pummelled oiled moisturised cleansed toned
Going to have an early night to avoid raiding the empty fridge
Or getting dressed and going to the shop Confused

Did okay yesterday. Avoided the utterly delicious bathed in butter mashed potatoes that dh served with dinner and had extra veg instead.
One day down with no wheat, dairy, sugar, alcohol. So far so good today. Need 2lbs off by Friday then. Grin

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 19:50

@prolefeed
That's doable - well done for resisting temptation

lotusbell · 28/06/2020 19:50

Can i join you? I'm 5ft nothing, no idea what I weigh but am guessing similar to the rest of you. What is a 'healthy' weight for us shorties? I'm do round, like a bloody dumpling. I look like a barrel Confused
I am no fan of exercise but I need to do something..I complete c25k but haven't run for most of lockdown due to injuries which now seem ok but I don't want to flare up again. I had envisaged being able to do 2 or 3 thirty minute runs each week and be happy with that.but the programme didn't really get me fit, I'm still slow and didn't manage to cover anything like 5k. I do want to pick it up again but what else can I do at home? I was considering a boogie bounce but I know deep down it'll end up folded away gathering dust. I'm the laziest and fattest I've ever been.

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 19:53

@prolefeed now I'm lusting after mashed potato. God I find the evenings so difficult. I'm ok throughout the day as I'm busy. You have done really well, keep going.

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 19:57

Hello @lotusbell, I just had to google boogie bounce. I have an exercise trampoline in the loft, it's been up there at least five years. I vaguely remember bouncing on it once and the dog kept trying to attack it.

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 20:01

Ooooooo @lotusbell
I'd like a boogie bounce
That sounds fun , knowing my luck i'd go through the floor
@sevendevils dark choc is the best lol glad we not 100% the same lol

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 20:02

@Jannyapple66 I can cope with Jaffa cakes 😁

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 20:04

Ohhhhhh Jaffa cakes ... better than sex

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 20:05

@Jannyapple66 steady!

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 20:08

Sorry .... is it sad that I'm now dreaming of .... the Jaffa cakes

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 20:13

@Jannyapple66 how do you make what I said in quote marks?

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 20:17

@sevendevils on the right hand side of the screen where it has " 2 minutes ago " there's a small arrow
Click that and you'll see a few options
I don't understand them all but the quote copies the post you commenting on
To be honest I'm just finding my way round
Someone sent me a private message , now I can't find that lol

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 20:20

@Jannyapple66 oh yes I see, it's a new feature. I've noticed it a lot lately, i assumed it was something to do with the new premium Mumsnet where you have to pay.

Jannyapple66 · 28/06/2020 20:23

Oh I don't want to know about that one then lol
Did you enjoy your tuna salad ?
I've stuck to my 200 x 3 meals and gallons of fluid ( coffee water and squash ) was doing fine till you mentioned the Jaffa's lol

sevendevils · 28/06/2020 20:26

@Jannyapple66 I blame @Feckmesideways. She mentioned tea and biscuits first.

Tuna salad was pretty depressing, I had bran flakes for tea.

Well hello. I'm 5 4. I was 14 st 7 in October last year and am now 12st. It's an improvement but I still have a long way to go - would like to be 10st 7. I follow keto and exercise 6 days a week but have lost focus as of late and motivation is slowly running away from me.
Having a house full of people makes it harder. I used to fast and sometimes just eat once a day but lockdown has put an end to that.

MoonBaby1 · 28/06/2020 21:46

Well hellodulce Smile. I, despite having started this thread have failed tonight after consuming more crisps and one than meant.

I actually feel positive though. I’m aware for the first time in ages. I know I overindulged rather than blocking it out.

We can all do this and return to the petite sized shops for more post lockdown wardrobe soon!! (Next jeans are the bomb btwGrin)
