markstretch...WOW!!! well done...

Ha ha, can't believe I missed the norks swinging session...will my next week's weight loss be delayed now?

Well done, Markstretch! 4lbs is fantastic [pompom emoticon]

Welcome to buktus

Hi to everyone else, you're all doing brilliantly. Speak to y'all later. Have a nice day, katybumpers!!!! And today's highly philosophical and inspirational quote is ...remember girls..."fridge pickers wear bigger knickers".

Happy slimming x

Susiecutie, that is NOT a bad start to the day. Keep at it!! Sorry to hear your back pain is worse today, roll on tomorrow when hubby home again x

Well done MarkStretch!!!!!!!! Amazing result .

Not a bad start at all SC - I had 2 pieces of white toast dripping in butter before I went to bed last night

I love all the Th-inspirational slogans at the moment!

I may not be losing the lbs but I'm wearing a size 12 skirt today [proud emoticon]

Thats the boost I needed - off to make some very virtous spicy parsnip soup for lunch

Have fun ladies x

Another fab receipe there SC sounding very yummy!

Can I be a bit thick and ask anyone what veggie boullion is? and where in a supermarket would I find bouquet garni???

vegatable bouillion is a powdered veg stock really, but you can drink it as a drink too... its really really low fat ( if any) really tasty and you can by it organic and vegan if you like
bouquet garni is a small collection of herbs you tie together with string yo can actually buy them too sold in a muslin bag, a bit like a tea bag! its just a fab way to add HEAPS of flavour. it can be missed out though

will look for a link for both...

veg bouillon can be bought in any supermarket!

just to add... the fat contents is listed here, but of course applies to 100g of the powder... thats nearly a whole tub!!! so unles you eat a whole tub in one go, it is v low fat!!

here is a bouquet garni

Thanks for that

Hi everyone
I've logged onto MN to try to combat the pre-dinner nibbles, that danger zone between the school run and evening meal. Have just put a plate of toasted scotch pancakes with butter out on the table for the dc's after-school snack and I had to get out of the way in case my willpower crumbled, eek!

Think thin, think thin, think thin, think thin.......

I don't think it's a bad start either. I hope not anyway or else I should be kicked out of here!

We had omelette for lunch - not usually big on carb-free meals but it is a good way of getting filled up with lots of nutrients without too many calories. Made it with tomatoes and shared it with the baby girl. And the cat. Sigh.

Have drunk loads and loads of water today, halved my diet coke consumption. Also feeling nibbly, thinking thin!

hi everyone
have been good all week.Had massive migraine today so felt sick too and couldn't eat much till afternoon .but then went to ds friends house and had a bowl of ice cream with choclate sauce it was nice though.Will go power walking tomorrow and walk it off.

DOnt worry about the ice cream if you had litle else today, you needed some calories from somewhere

rest of my day not brilliant

breakie: toast and jam and smidge of peanut butter
Lunch: panini with cheese and ham and half packet of low fat wlakers salt and vinegar crisps
Dinner: not had any.. felt too sick form pain and pain killers

snacks: dried apricots, mini farleys rusk x 2, apple, half Dd's fruit pot. and 1 petit filous.

oh dear, i dont feel i'm doing well at all this week but i'm sure i'm not gaining, so thats better than nothing i suppose!

yep.. and you are right Katy.. only 1 more sleep

susiecutie how excited are you!!!
