Hello folks - have now lost 1 stone 6.5 lbs and feel great.

Am indulging in a glass of wine tonight and enjoying it.

RGPargy · 25/02/2009 22:16

Blimey, well done JP!! Good for you!!

keepingitRia · 27/02/2009 13:41

well done JP.

small tiny gain this week (not surprising)

so am renewed of enthusiasm today

only thing is, it's the weekend, DH should be at home for most of it, and he may well have cause for celebration at some point... plus DM&F are back on Monday, and it's "tradition" to have a little party tea with them

RGPargy · 02/03/2009 20:45

How's it going everyone?

Think i've put on about 5 bloody pounds this week, but i am due on too so that could be why. I dont think it has anything at all to do with the fact that we had 2 chineses this weekend.....

Have said to DP not to offer me booze, not to say "but surely you can just have...." when i've got a small meal etc. I need to do this and i need all the help i can get. I am a weak person and dont need him to put temptation in my path!

However it's our anniversary tomorrow (3 years since we first met - we're not married) and i think we'll be having wine and a nice chocolate pud for dessert so i'll make sure i'm uber good during the day to compensate for it. So far today i still have 1.5 points left over.

Happy anniversary RG

no party with parents (I felt too guilty about DS3 breaking their prized ornament that they bought when they retired - they were fine about it, but I have been fretting for weeks - it kind of co-incided with the deterioration of my diet), and am a bit skint now, but will try hard...

jaz236 · 03/03/2009 20:27

Hello Ladies, and happy anniversary RG xxxx

RGPargy · 03/03/2009 21:42

Thanx Ria, thanx jaz

have a thoroughly bad evening (was good all day) and i must say i particularly enjoyed my 8 points worth of dessert!!

OP posts:
5inthebed · 03/03/2009 22:09

Well I actually stayed the same this week Not surprised really as I was out on Saturday for my anniversary and then pigged out on Sunday.

8 points worth of pudding! Must have been lovely

Have you tried the WW chocolate proffiterole pudding? It is delish. 3.5 points, and so worth it.

RGPargy · 06/03/2009 15:06

Oh well at least you didn't put on, that's one way of looking at it!

The pudding was totally yummy but so tiny that it wasn't worth 8 points! Still, it came in these lovely patterned little glass ramekins so i've got those to keep for my sins for the next time i make a sinful white chocolate mint mousse (a la Nigella).

Profiteroles sound yummy!! Might have to look out for them! Are they frozen or fridged?

I was going on the treadmill tonight and I can't get the belt thing to move. Hope the kids haven't broken it. Wish DH was in then I could go out for a walk/jog. It is really windy and rainy - I think that would be great

I am back in the game tomorrow. Shopped and menu planned til Wednesday.

I CAN do it.

DH has a 1-2 week fulltime temp job and I have finished my course, so my eveninngs are mine for workout DVDs!

I have to stick to it this time, I want some new clothes.

RGPargy · 08/03/2009 23:45

Wowsers, well done Ria!!! You sound like you've really taken control of the situation - good for you!!

WW tomorrow morning. I am quite determined to go this week lol!

OP posts:
keepingitRia · 09/03/2009 08:45

here goes then ...
don't fancy a cooked breakfast so just going to graze on fruit this morning.

Am SO tired though, DH bought me the new Maeve Binchy novel for xmas and I've been saving it for the end of my course, but I certainly made up for lost reading time last night - it even interfered with my wine drinking

RGPargy · 09/03/2009 09:52

Good grief Ria!!! How can you let ANYTHING interfere with wine drinking?!! SHAME ON YOU!!

OP posts:
keepingitRia · 09/03/2009 11:50

I got so caught up in the story I couldn't be bothered to get up to fill my glass

unfortunately I am so keen to find out what happens it will probably interfere with the exercise too

5inthebed · 09/03/2009 12:55

WW profiterole pud is frozen I believe.

I lost 4 pounds this week So there is a full stone. Woohoo me!

How is everyone elses weightloss going?

I've got sciatica, so can't excercise mush atm. Going to try walk a lot more though.

Ria at a book cutting into wine time! Step away from the book

keepingitRia · 09/03/2009 13:04

well done 5 that's brilliant.

I had a really bad bought of sciatica 2 summers ago, I dread it coming back. poor you.

keepingitRia · 09/03/2009 14:41

bout obviously

RGPargy · 09/03/2009 16:38

Wow well done 5!!! Wish i'd have seen your message BEFORE i went shopping lol.

Dont think i've lost anything this week. Didn't go to WW this week yet again because quite simply i didn't think i could sit there listening about weight loss when i thought i could be pg (the test was negative btw!!).

Will try to be good this week. Dont want to be this weight forever!!

OP posts:
keepingitRia · 09/03/2009 21:41

I've been for a "run" tonight I feel really good now

glass of wine and some book I think

Hope I can lose enough to wear nicer exercise clothes if I'm still running (yeah right) when the nights get lighter.

RGPargy · 10/03/2009 21:32

Well done Ria!
