Support Thread for all us New Mummies who would like to loses those extra lbs gained while 'eating for 2'

[JODIEhadababy]

Well, as title says really.

I am the pround mummy to 2 boys, DS1 2 DS2 10 weeks, and have 2 stone to lose by christmas. I think with your help and support I have more of a chance of doing it.

Anyone care to join me?

I'll even start a 'list' for us to cut and paste our achievements.

Jodiehadababy current weight 12st0.5ozs Target weight 10st

mil visited last night so we had some veggie mincey stuff and some pasta and roast pots (frylight) and melon to finish,

today i have eaten,

1 cup of tea

4 slices of special low fat bacon (dry fried)
2 duck eggs (poached)
8 mushrooms (sliced and dry fried)
2 slices of ww wholemeal toast
1 large glass of skimmed milk

1 apple
1 bottle of water

1 large bowl of veggie mince with extra veggies
1 bottle glass of (low fat) rose wine

i shall be stick thin tommorrow

add 1 whole pack of chicken tikka slices (eat smart ones, less than 2% fat) to that

in my defence i am

1. hungry (always)
2. breast feeding (disclaimer - not when drinking)
3. drinking (it is sat night)

add 1 nectarine

SnoopDog - that doesn't seem like a lot f food for a bfing woman. You only seem to have eaten 2 meals, did you miss breakfast/lunch? That would make you hungry.

I was doing well yesteday until a bbq in the evening, when I thought I'd just have meat and salad - hadn't realised that sausages are not free food though chicken is. So I used a lot of Syns what with that and the 2 glasses of wine! Then at 11pm I had a text from the slimming world class leader, saying that 1 bad day won't ruin the week - I think she must have CCTV installed here! Going to the beach today, so making pasta salad to take to avoid temptation of cheese rolls, fish and chips and ice cream.

Hi all...

Hope your all getting on OK?

Ponto I didn't realise you lived in Cardiff, my DH say's it's lovely there and move tomorrow, would love to go. All I;ve seen of it is what's on Torchwood!

Food wise, I've had quite a bad weekend, it's DS1's 2nd birthday tomorrow so we went out with friends for a pub lunch yesterday and I toyed with the idea of having a Jacket Potato, but thought stuff it and had a steak baguette and chips instead we then went round Carsington Waters (a HUGE resevoir, so beautiful) and played Footie with DS1, so did do some exercise... Then went out last night and although I only had Tuna Fishcakes for tea, I had 4 glasses of wine! Then today been for sunday lunch at MIL and had loads of birthday cake (well I paid for it, it would have been rude not too!)

stuffed myself at a carvery place this afternoon,

i swear people were starinmg at me and my huge plate full of everything on offer

ponto, do you really think what i listed is not much, i thought i had eaten a fair bit that day, all good stuff though really,

well, the scales were minus another 1LB this morning but after todays fill i reacon they will laugh at me in the morning

never mind, will go back to being good tomorrow x

not too good over weekend...so busy i tend to eat on the run. Before i join ww this week i am going to try and get a routine and actually it down for meals!

Hi All,

4lb loss over the last week but was bad last night - 3 glasses of red, some crisps and some Japanese rice crackers!

My exercise bike isn't working either - computer is knacked so they will need to send me another. I am going to go back to bellydancing this week though and I have been doing abdominal lifts, weights, butt crunches and saddlebag lifts! So at least if I tone up the muscle burns more cals than fat.

How many lbs since last week all?

Do you think we should have a list of start weights, dates and weight loss? Might help to motivate us all and cheer us on.

Well must be off as DD has a pooey bum and it honks!

Well done on 4lb loss WW. I get on the scales every morning but am going to have my official weigh-in at Slimming World on Thurs, so will let you know then. Seems to be going in the right direction so far though, should have lost a pound or two I hope.

SnoopDog, this is what I have eaten today (a good day):

Breakfast: porridge with milk and sweetener (would usually have syrup but not while on diet)

Snack: cereal bar and an apple

Lunch: Tuna and salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, peas, sweetcorn, celery, fat free French dressing) with quinoa (first time I had tried this and not sure if I cooked it properly), followed by natural yogurt with sweetener

Snack: Low fat chocolate crispy bar

Dinner: Beef and veg casserole with huge pile of mashed potato

I am still deciding what to have for pudding - would have fruit salad with yogurt but only have hard, unripe nectarines and kiwis in the house, and no yogurt - must go shopping tomorrow!

So you see I eat plenty, it's all allowed on Slimming World though so I hope I do still lose weight.

Hi all, Well done on your 4lbs WW!!! I'm very

I have my 'official' weigh in tomorrow so will let you know, but it's no where near 4lbs!

I have shirked on the exercise this week, just done the Davina DVD once, but am starting back at Aqua next week (note to self, must get swimming cossie) and there is talk of doing a Spinning Class too.

Had a REALLY bad day yesterday, we went to Twycross Zoo (Thomasland closed grrr ) but we still had a good day, anyway, took picnic and it was cheese and onion rolls, sausage rolls, pork pies, and these mose amazing mini Jam Donuts from Waitrose!!!! Yummy... Looks like I;m going have to survive on lettuse leaves today no biscuit for me at Mother and Toddler!

It's prob a good idea to have a 'list' to keep us going! We can update it when we have our 'official' weigh ins as we all have them on different days, seems pointless having another day for them here. As mine is tomorrow, I'll add my name to a list then!

Have a good day girlies

I can't quite believe i've lost this week, been very bad! Now hit the 11stone mark!

Am joining the gym this week (ahhhh) so it should fall off

gota go S screaming out for a bottle of 'house white', just like his mummy

Well done Jodie!

LOL SnoopDog, your day sounds like mine! , I had a bad day yesterday, as we had someone round for dinner, so I started the evening with a gin and tonic, and then dh cooked roast potatoes, which were irresistable. Wouldn't have been so bad if I hadn't then followed them with 2 portions of ice cream - well, there was only one scoop left when I was clearing up, it wasn't worth putting it back in the freezer! Will have to be really good today as I have my first weigh-in tomorrow, it would be embarrassing to not lose anything!
