11'ses: Yoghurt
Lunch: Mackrel Salad
PM T: Cappucino (mocha to be bought on monday!)
Dinner: Homemade Meatballs & Tom Sauce with Spaghetti & side salad

Way hay ss! well done!!!

I have been trying to make up for my overeating earlier in the week - was told when I did the school run yesterday (very rare occurence as I'm usually at work) by 2 different people that I was looking well so I must be doing something right!

And I took delivery of some size 12's from M&S - some of which even fitted!

Thanks Pinkrose! What are sun bite? Actually no dont tell me, I cant afford to become addicted to any more foodstuff! Mmmmm Galaxy - I love your menu today!!!

spotty i feel really bad about not being happier for you. i actually was.

I had fishermans pie tonight for tea.
only ate one teeny slice of bread from Isobels bowl with lemon curd on it... god i love that stuff!! ( must be really bad for you... )

Forgot lunch today.... not good. must east regularly. dreading weighing on tuesday.

Yay tangerine!!!! Well done on the clothes fitting! Doesnt matter how many lbs we lose as long as the nice clothes fit!

I'm going to treat myself when I get down to a proper 'complete' size 12.

That is also exactly what i'm aiming for. To be a really comfortable size 12 like i was before Dd.

I dont mind how much weight i lose at all, so long as I can do that. ANd boy will DH credit card take a bit of a bashing then! mind you, i dont think he'll mind.. he wont have to listen to me moaning about nothing fitting me and everyhting looking terrible on me...

Morning Slimming ladies!

Had a good start already!
2 clementines and an apple and large mug of tea.

got to keep it up... for a whole day! and ask mum to stop bringing over things to cheer me up like cake and choc biccies.

hope you have forgiven my today spotty....

good luck with your day everyone.

My last message was absolute drivel.
I meant to say -
dd had the vomiting virus, and hence the sleeping
my tummy is blown up and I am bunged up - bit better now

Today and yesterday were not great. Sleep deprivation is terrible - I crave comfort of any kind, and food seems the easiest. Plus DP is on nights, and I am stressed.... enough excuses. It's going to be bad tomorrow.

Am going to really restart this week, as a bare minimum
exercise every day
lots of water - a glass of water before I eat or drink ANYTHING else
no nibbling

I will be inspired and if I am nibbly come on here and chat.

Spottyshoes and susiecutie - ra!ra!ra! Well done you two!

hi all
dd not wellwith diarrhoea and i'm under the weather today...headachey with a temp and loads of gas....a bit better than y'day though as i can now see my toes!

I found sleep deprivation the worst thing to deal with when i had my dd *mylittlefreya ..have a big hug ...i don't know your circs but can you ask someone to have your LO downstairs for an hour or 2 so you can go upstairs for a kip when you feel like this?

anyway have had easy food today and couldn't be bothered to go and get more fruit, so its all carb-tastic

brekkie...muesli
lunch...2 slices of toast with jam,low fat yoghurt.
mid pm..cappuccino
eve...cereal
later..2 crumpets with butter and marmite and another cappuccino

anyone notice that we are over the 900 messages mark....shakes pom poms weakly

Shame its not a collective 900lbs or, 90 lbs would be ok!!

I'm still doing ok ish... had pasta and tuna for lunch with a drizze of garlic oil and a sprinkle of cheese.

need someting small for tea, but cannot think what to have

Morning girls!

where is everyone?

where is every one??.... where is everyone?.....echo? echooooo echooooo echooooo....

gosh, is ever so lonely in here, there's a huge echo too!

So then, good start to the day... I always seem to start well!

fruit and instant horlicks. not so good, but have no milk and needed a hot drink!

erm, thats as far as I got. Weigh tomorrow... huge feeling of dread

hope you are all well?
keep it up anyone whos left... I dont want to do this on my own

Hi
I'm here!!! Sorry to hear there's so much sickness about at the moment. I normally weigh on a Tuesday night but weighed this morning and have only lost 0.5lbs this week. Here's hoping I can get that down by another 0.5lb by tomorrow night. So far I have lost 2.5lbs (plus a previous 2lbs as I had started the week before katybump started this thread).

morning all!

7 lbs!!!!!!!

ok , only joking....just wondered how it would feel to write that

another boring 1lb...whih makes 3lbs for me altogether

Ra! Ra!Ra! croaks Polly...

Hello!!!!!!!!

I gave up posting for a few days cos I was a big fat sow eating everything in sight!

Back on the WW now and a friend came over Friday with 3 WW recipe books, a points counter and WW digital scales so now I am fully prepared. Made their sweetcorn pasta to take to work tomorrow and weighed everthing out- looks like loads of food, yum. Got assessments to do tomorrow so will be cycling all over the city.

Went to the pub Friday night as DD was staying at a friends and stuck to white wine (total change from my normal beer and everyone thought I must be ill!) and I alternated every wine with a glass of water and felt very proud of myself.

Glad to hear you are all doing well. Thought I would switch the laptop on to distract myself from feeling hungry. Had stir fry for dinner and it just didn't fill me up!

Well done tangerine ! that must feel SOOOO good! keep it going hey {wink]

sorry, that post took ages to send and then there were two more!

I reckon we ought to think about stretching this stone loss out to losing a stone for christmas... what to you guys think? I mean, we are all doing better than we were before we started ,and it takes a bit of time to get into it hey?

how bout we take a small amount of pressure off, nd have christmas eve or something like that, as the deadline for a stone... might be more likely to stay off that way too???

just a though... i'm sure Katy will approve

welcome back markstretch!

i was also not filled by my eve meal...and after a graze around the kitchen dragged myself on here to get away from the cupboards! Hubby has been shopping today and there is cake and choccie and crisps and ice cream and ....well, you name it! They are all calling my name even tho' my after dinner dinner means i'm not actually hungry now..

am hoping theres a juicy thread to hold my attention for a bit

I find it helps me to break what might be a bigger eating jag by making myself post on here every day if poss...
