nork swinging optional

hello ladies (waaves at katy- i made it over from my thread phew!)

started my first ever session at ww last night and was depressed to find i was 5 lbs heavier than i thought i was so thats a bummer.
but, i think i have been good today. perhaps you can tell me if this sounds ok?

brekkie-
1 slice wholemeal ww toast with banana on top
cup coffee decaf with skimmed milk

lunch-
ww bread sandwich with houmous and shredded carrot and one with low fat soft cheese spread

snack- an apple

dinner tonight will be- grilled cod fillet with lime juice, brown rice, salady stuff
ww yoghurt for puds

does that sound ok?

am getting a bit confused with the points. how do you work out how much one meal is if you make it from scratch?
eg if i made a veggie lasagne from scratch, do i just add up the points for all the ingredients and then divide the points into servings iyswim? what a flippin faff

MrsFish you are putting us all - well me, certainly - to shame well done

I was drenched in sweat trying to push a very laden pushchair at speed in the wind and rain today. So I hope that helps. I have a big interview on Thurs, hoping my size 12 interview suit will fit nicely. I know I will look terrible in the very beautiful size 10 one, if I could even do it up, which I doubt.

Susie - when was your LMP? What do you mean by 'very careful'?!?! I'm just smug cos I've got a Mirena, but it does mean I have to live vicariously through others!

Today - breakfast - hot cross bun and slice of brown toast
lunch - roast chicken sandwich, plus two squares of chocolate just now.
Have also really cut down the diet coke

evening

welldone currantbunmum for resisiting the snacking

hello bel sorry for name shortening .yes add up all the ingredients and then then work out the points per portion.it does get easier the more you do it

mylittlepudding have you had headaches with cutting down the diet coke?mine's been banging today

susie

hello to everyone else x

breakfast banana and yoghurt
lunch soup,krisprolls and cheese spread
snack fruit and my beloved mushrooms
dinner will be chicken breast and jacket potato

weigh in tomorrow.is everyone feeling confident?

weigh in here tomorrow? i cant do that i've only started today! do i have to post my actual weight or just say whether i have lost anything and if so how much???!

a few of us weigh in on a wednesday.but you can weigh in on the day that suits you.you don't have to post your weight,just what you've lost.its entirely up to you.there are no rules just a few ladies trying to be slim for summer.it was christmas but the chocs and baileys got in the way i'm at ww in the morning,don't feel like i lost anything even though i haven't cheated.

You can't complain Katy, what with that massive loss last week I bet you do still lose though I am hoping for a pound loss as I had a couple of rocky days over the weekend.

B = 2 nimble, cottage cheese and jam
L = 4 ryvita, cottage cheese, pickle, cucumber and tomato, 2 pieces of celery with salad cream
T = will be Italian shepherds pie with broccolli, then a bowl of fruit salad.
S = funsize bag of choc buttons, 1 digestive

I will attempt 20 mins on cross trainer too, although ds2 is very unsettled this afternoon

i think it's because of that time of the month that i feel bloated.
you sound like your doing really well mrsfish.i know what you mean about unsettled dc and finding time to excercise.everytime i put my dvd on dd starts demanding my attention or starts pulling herself up on things.she hasn't been in bed before 11 any night for over a week

Evening everyone, fingers crossed for all of us who weigh in tomorrow

B=Cereal bar, orange juice
S=Cappuccino, 1 slice wm toast and jam
L=Cereal bar, petit filous, apple

Lunch was a bit of a rush at 3pm. DH off work today so spent some time "exercising" whilst DD's at nursery and school. Sorry TMI?

Dinner will be Quorn jalfreizi, Madhur Jafreys Gujerati cabbage and peas, and basmati rice.

MLP Good Luck for Thursday.

currantbunmum am and at your choice of excercise

yes and good luck for thursday mylittlepudding,i'll keep everything crossed for you x

So, I'm not the only one bloated.

i'm trying to drink loads of water to get rid of it.anyone got any tips?

in the past I used to take a little bicarb of soda 9not washing soda) in a glass of water. it used to help me. I don't have any at the moment though.

Tomorrow . Eyes glass of wine

Nothing to do with dieting, but I just saw this on a badge.

Easy there Mr.Testostresone, you can always be replaced by a zuchinni.

my laptop is on a complete go slow but that discoverlife was worth waiting for

i'm getting scared about my weigh in.silly i know but i hate to fail

sorry ladies that i am not around as much...it was due to real life busyness but now due to an ms relapse, which is a p*sser as i haven't had one since i started my beta interferon...am feeling grot, bone tired, hardly able to walk (high five and snap susie!) and a constant feeling like i've just got off a boat...it means it's hard to concentrate on the screen...

dietwise i am not doing brilliantly or appallingly just reg meals plus fruit plus the odd bit of cake or biscuit, don't expect much either way...still at the mo' would be great if it just stays steady

will check on when i have a good spell.....if only to check if that minx susie is or isn't!!!!!!

GOOD LUCK BUMPERS with the weighing

MLF oh you know, using every form of contraception possible, almost!!

currantbunmun

Actually we have been arguing on and off for 2 days. I feel bloody awful and so upset. He's just being a selfish twunt at the moment. I have buggered my back up again, and was in agony last night, literally crying / wailing in pain. Would he answer the phone to me? would he reply to my text TELLING him what had happened. I'm SO fed up. I feel SO alone. Im SO cross. SO disappointed in him. Hes let me down too much for one week.

Sorry girls. needed to get it out.

Isobel is being a nightmare to settle too. finally has gone to sleep after an hour of crying, nothign would settle her. Guess she's picking up on me being miserable and in pain.

anyway, sorry again.

GOOD LUCK ALL OF YOU

oh polly i'm so sorry to hear thati hope you have people around to help you.come on when you can and know that we promise not to gossip behind your back xx

susie..men are shits,whether we love them or loathe them they are still shits.i know that won't help you and for that i'm sorry but it's true.
i wished you lived nearer then me and mlp could help out.have a virtual glass of wine instead and help me calms my nerves about my weigh in tomorow aaaaaaaarrrrrrggggghhhhh

thnk you Katy. Just got off the phone to him. He's not called this evenig to say good night to Izzy. He's not answered the phone to me all evening. Just answered, totally pissed. I'm so upset. Cant stop crying. had enough of it all at the moment. Dont know what to do really. >

he's a bloke.he'll phone you tomorow,sober and wonder what you are going on about.men see things in black and white(disclaimer...the men i know ,friends dh's etc) and he will have thought " hard day at work,beer,kebab,bed" he does love you and probably feels guilty for not being there in person to help.so he buries his head in the sand.repeat after me....he is a man,he is a man,he is a man! i spent many a night crying over my dh over the past 18years,cry all you need to chicken.tomorrows another day and things always look brighter in the morning x

No man is worth your tears, belive me. They all have 0 emotional level and think we're trouble makers. treat yourself to something nice tomorrow - a haircut/ a nice skirt - anything which will make you feel good without getting onto overeating being upset. Tonight have a wonderful relaxing bath and go to sleep, sleep well, forget your sadness. Best of luck!

well said fedda,unfortunately i learnt that the hard way

Thank you, Katy. I'm afraid we all did.

i used to wish i was a lesbian as men are such arses but a,i have never met a woman i fancied and b,my lesbian friends have the same relationship problems as me .you can't win lol
