Good luck Katy! I predict a loss of at least 2lbs for us both I had a cheeky look on my scales today and i've lost some but will wait until my official weigh in on friday before i get too excited!

Just had porridge it keeps me filled up until lunch unlike the cheerios i had yesterday where i was starving at 10am!

katylessbumpy · 27/02/2008 08:06

At our weigh in you can buy the ww treats so we all buy a box and have 1 with a cuppa hot choc after we've been weighed lol then i come home have oven fish and chips and a couple of spritzers, my treat for my hard work!

Me and dh were awake when the earthquake hit, very exciting and surreal. The last one I remember was 2002 but this one was stronger

I've lost one pound this week, so that elusive stone sticker will have to wait another week. I am going to be extra good this week and see if I can get in the 11 stones too

katylessbumpy · 27/02/2008 08:21

last time i bought the mint choc bars.i'm such a pig ate them all in one go
my favourites at the moment are special k choc bars for 1 1/2 points or alpen light bars for 1 point.
i'm getting nervous now.the boy's are just brushing their teeth and then we are off!

wish me luck

The rich toffee ones are the best katy, i pretend im eating a lion bar!!! I had 5 on fri then none left by monday so i've really had to try and be good without them to have as a treat which is hard! I've ended up having a sq of dark choc instead to give me a sugar fix!!

pollywobbledoodle · 27/02/2008 09:02

2lbs for me .....roll on the 5!

was up during the earthquake.....thought dh was turning over heavily in bed...then realised it was a bit too violent even for that!

Jahan · 27/02/2008 09:45

Well done MrsFish and Polly!

I've lost a lb. Total of 11.
I'm going to be better this week as the weight loss is too slow for my liking. I'm pledging a 2lb loss by next Wed.
Someone keep kicking my ample butt please!

I didn't feel the earthquake. I am knocked out after 11 (and inbetween feeds!)

fedda · 27/02/2008 11:06

Hi, I slept like a log so i had no idea what was happening. B - raw cabbage leaves: 10 am - home made vegie soup with a bit of cheese L - will be vegie soup again; D - will be chicken cooked with lemon, a bit of olive oil and garlic with rice and peas.

discoverlife · 27/02/2008 13:22

Hi ladies, Ive gone and done it again. I really should have 'L' plates tatoo'd to my forehead.
This morning DS2 and I got up, had brekkie and went for our new morning walk. This morning I decided we would walk to the postbox and see how we felt. So we got their felt great so carried on. I knew that the road made a massive 7 or 8 mile loop around before getting back to our house so I though we should cut across country to shorten the distance.

WE GOT LOST. After an hour of walking I finally gave in, we found a house and they let us use their phone to call DH who came out to rescue us.

Do you know what.. I love being me, I never know what will happen from one day to the next. No time to be bored. Mind you my Mum would have cringed with embarresment, why? Now that does really puzzle me. Its another lesson to be learnt, lesson today was 'Do not leave house for 10 minute walk without O.S.map and full survival gear.

katylessbumpy · 27/02/2008 14:01

Its only 4, nothing to worry about at all.

I have been crap today aswell as yesterday, can't seem to pull my finger out and stop eating the naughty stuff, I have no control

discoverlife · 27/02/2008 18:39

Yah! you rock Katy. Well done.

discoverlife · 27/02/2008 19:02

Im Jinxed , JINXED I tell you.

I've just taken the tip of my bloody thumb off whilst chopping onions. somebody up there is trying to do me.

Jahan · 27/02/2008 19:18

Don't be down, MrsFish. You and I are in a similar situation. I think we've both done brilliantly considering we both had babies 4 months ago! Be proud of your achievement and just forget about today and yesterday and start afresh tomorrow.

Woohoo! for Katy! Thats an amazing loss and you've been trying really hard. Well done.

Discoverlife - Lol at your earlier post and 'ouch' at your most recent!

katylessbumpy · 27/02/2008 19:28

discoverlife ouch!

jahan that is a really inspiring post
be proud of your achievements.what a great motto.

i got my gold key today so i weigh in for free now and my leader asked me if i'd be interested as training to be a leader.what do you think?

OP posts:
Jahan · 27/02/2008 19:36

Thats brilliant Katy! Well, I think we can vouch that you'd be an ideal leader.
You're really attentive and always try to include everyone in your posts. You seem to be really approachable, friendly and caring (I say seem as I know people can come across differently here than in rl). You know your stuff and know what hard work losing weight can be!
Is it something you'd consider?

katylessbumpy · 27/02/2008 19:51

i don't really know.i was a bit suprised to be honest.
thanks for writing something so lovely about me jahan
