I have to walk an hour often in the cold and wind after work... dinner needs to be warm! Maybe in the summer will have more salads. My CM already thinks I'm mad for all the walking - she certainly wouldn't be doing it for me!!! DD has been so good today and slept more than usual, so I have been really lucky, and enjoyed being with her tbh.

LoveMyGirls · 28/03/2008 19:23

That is a good point, i forgot you walk miles!

I've been weighed and i stayed the same at least i didnt put any on and i'm back in the swing of being good now, i predict a minimum of 2lb off nxt friday!

susiecutiemincepies · 28/03/2008 22:05

wow, all new names!!!

I think we should maybe have a new thread too.... shiney sparkly one in time for April... what do you think?? I also think that your title back up there somewhere, was great, club tropicana one...

So, I need you all to stand behind me and give me the biggest kick up the butt ever. I really need something to get me back on it. I'm losing time fast before my deadline for the first of my 3 stone. I can't believe I've just not got on with it yet. I've basically lost and gained the same few lbs the whole of the thread.

Today:
B 28g honey nut shreddies
L Tuna pasta bake ( delicious , cooked by a friend )
T Posh Cheese on toast.

Recipes:
Lunch ingredients:
Pasta, Tuna ( tin, in brine ) Green pepper, Spring onions, small garlic clove, mustard powder, Cheese, Bread crumbs ( wholemeal)

Method:
Fry the spring onions lightly with the peppers, all chopped fairly small, with the garlic. ( I'd do it in fry lite but you can use whatever you want. )
Cook your pasta until al-dente.
make a small amount of white sauce.
Mix it all together, and put into oven proof dish. grate over some cheese, a little more of the white sauce, and the bread crumbs ( a medium stale roll will give enough )
Cook in oven until top really crispy and melted.

Tea
'posh' cheese on toast.
Finely chop a red onion, ( I used a hand blender thing that i used to use for Izzy's pureed food)
Fry in fry lite and a squidge of tomato puree. Add a dash of water if not 'frying' enough.
Toast one side of your bread.
Turn over, and spread the onion mix over it.
optional extra ; a fried egg! under cook it though, or it will be over done at the end...
Lay the fried egg on top of the onions, and add your grated cheese, or sliced ( I used my cheese allowance from SW plan) Grill until bubbling.

Hmmm, it was SO filling. I had two small slices of bread with all the above on. I literally am stuffed. Feel like I need rolling from room to room!

katy: just read back over the thread, so he came back then, as 'promised' >

I think its a good idea to give it one more go. I really don't think you'd ever feel quite right about it, if you didn't. IYSWIM? At least, if things still end up how they did , And I truly hope he gets his act together, but at least you can honestly say to yourself, and to little M, that you did your best. Means alot to you and the LO in the future, honestly it does. I really regret, not giving it one more try with my exH. He did have someone else, and I think I could have moved on from that. however, I didn't give it that chance and did regret it for some time. Still think about it now. When things are not good here. I don't mean I regret being with Mr C at all. Just that my exh did treat me a whole lot better in general, in terms of affection, openly showing love, oh, lots of things. I also felt we knew each other so so deeply as we'd grown up together. .. and it makes me think sometimes... does that make sense? I dont mean I want him over Mr C... god, i making no sense!

ok, i'll get me coat!

Ps: I keep trying to change my name, and it wont move my profile when I do that K, so I go back... will try again I think!

LisaLessLumpy · 28/03/2008 22:13

Thanks katy, I've done it.... finally

fatkatyslim · 28/03/2008 22:18

i know what you mean susie.dh was the one i hung on for.we have been through so much over the last 18 years i just hope we can get our special thing back

you do realise if you don't get your arse in gear then next time i see you you may be wearing mr.c's clothes again
just do it women.you know you want to x

that posh cheese on toast sounds yummy.
i've just eaten the rest of my points for today.i tend to lose more when i eat more plus i earned some bonus points so i've just had some wafer thin hama nd a cerel bar.exciting hey lol

susiecutiemincepies · 28/03/2008 22:37

oi you! ( slaps Ms K round the face with a wet kipper) you promised you'd not be telling anyone about the clothes incident!

Ok, well to all, in my defense:

KATY threw a drink over me, and I only had the pair of trousers I was wearing on, s I had to put on a pair of Mr Cuties trousers, and rather upsettingly, they fit quite well. He is 6ft6 and not exactly teeny in build... but, they don't fit like girls clothes IFSWIM? V different... honestly!

I can't even worl out how to change my name at all now, let alone profile too!

fatkatyslim · 28/03/2008 22:38

dd is stirring so i'm off.

susie,do it for you xxxx

i'm off to my sisters in the morning but i'll text you over the week end x

fatkatyslim · 28/03/2008 22:40

pmsl ,i was getting you back for the one you knocked over with your (.)(.)!

susiecutiemincepies · 28/03/2008 22:52

I reckon it was Izzy and M both times, in the hope they could get down under the table and lap up the spillage! ( yo know how she does with her dinner? chucks it on the floor and goes down after to finish off what she's thrown! )

Oh, do keep in touch over the weekend, if you can. Mr C not coming home as he's in too much pain. He managed to get back to B'ham. But had to stop every half hour as his hip was so sore. I'm really worried about him. seems to be so many things wrong with him at the moment, a few of them similar, involving different joints. His ankle is terrible swollen all the time now. I just want him here so I can help him and look after him. Just need a cuddle terribly now...

fatkatyslim · 28/03/2008 22:56

yep,definately the girls
and you know how much mr.c enjoyed all those peas izzy picked up for him pmsl.

hope we can meet up again soon.
i'll be in touch over the weekend.don't worry xx

fatkatyslim · 28/03/2008 23:08

right dd is now definately awake and i'm fed up of running up and down stairs so i'm going to bed.
night night x

susiecutiebananas · 28/03/2008 23:24

night night poppet. take care, sleep well.

talk really soon. x

Jahan · 29/03/2008 08:57

Oooh name changes. Its a good job I came back when I did otherwise I would have been really confused

I've only read through the last couple of pages for a quick catch up.

Katy - you're doing really well!size 8, hey? well done! good to hear your dh is trying to sort things out. Hopefully, as he's nowadmitted he has a problem, he can do something about it. It really is no way to live. As someone else said, its such a waste of time and money. Is he going to go cold turkey and just give up?
Did you tell him that you wanted the man you fell in love with back? I think you should if you didn't.
I'm a romantic and believe you did the right thing in giving him one last chance. Good luck.

LMG - sounds v. promising! He seems to have a proposal up his sleeve! I am going to join you in stopping nail biting too. Its such a rubbish habit but, like you, I don't even realise I'm doing it half the time. I'm going to buy some of that nasty tasting stuff so I'll realise what I'm doing.

Susie - I'm next in line for that kicking! Shall we both start afresh together?

Lisa - you sound like you're doing well, apart from that blip.

I'm going to give that more chewing a go too.

Right, I'm going to work at a 2lb loss this week. No snacking after dinner and I'm going to be more organised about food. |The slow cooker is out again and I'm going to menu plan for the whole week.

fatkatyslim · 29/03/2008 09:05

right i'm off to my sisters for the night.be good ladies and i'll catch up with you all in the morning

fatkatyslim · 29/03/2008 09:07

LLLLL heres your kick jahan

yes i did tell him all of the above and he now hasn't had a drink for 2 whole nights

keep on track jahan and 2 lb this week will be a walk in the park

belcantavinissima · 29/03/2008 16:38
