STAY AWAY FROM THE COCKTAILS

and stick to gin/voka instead with a diet mixer

i wasnt very good yesterday and had a real craving for salt and vinegar hand cooked crisps

so i had 50g of them

worth 4ps - which isnt that bad - but i had them for breakie

wickedwitchofwestfield · 08/06/2009 22:39

its a 2-4-1 cocktail bar lol.
I shall be banking points across the week and supplimenting them with some hardcore gym action beforehand

bloody mary = 2pts, mojitos = 3pts, cosmo/manhattan/sex on beach/mai tai = 4pts

so will have one of each 2pt/3pt/4pt = 9pts
then will stick to saintly drinking all night

I've drunk my bodyweight in cocktails a few times and lost weight so will be good and hopefully everything will be ok!

my find of the week is that 50ml JD is 1.5pts - shame I don't like it!

Blondeshavemorefun · 09/06/2009 09:44

is 50mls of gin the same?

hows everyones else doing after the weekend?

who is weighing today?

mammyto1 · 09/06/2009 18:40

Hi all i was wondering if i could join. I started WW last Friday, i am doing it from home so no classes. I have about 2st to lose but have lost 2.5st through calorie counting but haven't lost anything since Dec so needed a change

dontdillydally · 09/06/2009 23:04

hi all - eating has gone right out of the window since thurs due to stress.

As of tomorrow need to get back on track...wish me luck

OhBling · 10/06/2009 09:43

I missed my meeting yesterday as I was still at work so weighed myself at home... have lost another 1.5lbs according to home scale. Which is good seeing as the weekend was seriously bad as we were away. I'm feeling pretty good and people have started to comment on the weight loss.

I weighed myself again this morning for the entertainment value and apparently I lost 4lbs overnight!?!? Does anyone else have this? Am I retaining obscene amounts of water during the day or something?!

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/06/2009 10:10

welcome mammyto1

bling - you always weigh less in am then eve - hence why i weigh fri am

dillydally - we all have days like that xx

dontdillydally · 10/06/2009 14:20

mammyto1 · 10/06/2009 15:35

Thanks for the welcome blonde. I has a sneaky weigh today too and so far have lost 4lbs, woohoo. I feel hungry but it feels good too see the weight go off the scales

dontdillydally · 10/06/2009 16:56

Fab news Mammy, keep at it. I make the veg soup the one thats 0 points and that sems to keep me going when Im really hungry or a big plate of carrot, cucumber and celery sticks again 0 points.

mammyto1 · 10/06/2009 17:01

Thats a good idea dilly, must give it a go, thank you!

GossipMonger · 10/06/2009 17:41

1 lb off!

12.5 in total.

welcome Mammy.

Blondeshavemorefun · 10/06/2009 19:19

yah gossip

4lbs sounds good mammy

been a bad blonde today

i think tomorrow should be 0point soup for tea, thus saving 7points

Kayzr · 11/06/2009 07:59

Hello!!

Welcome Mammy!!

I am thinking of not going to the meetings. I am really struggling this week to be able to get there. Noone can watch the boys and the meeting is upstairs. So I am going to do it online and go to the meeting once a month.

Anyway I have just weighed myself and I have put on a lb so I am going to start again from today!!

mammyto1 · 11/06/2009 11:40

Thanks kayzr

I know I have only been doing WW for a week but have founf it really easy without the meetings. I have done it before so know it inside out. I think you could do esp with the help on here. Did you have a bad week or maybe TOTM. it could be that you have weighed yourself at a different time of the day than normal or different clothes on.

Have any of you ever come across a ladies website called 'my long bumpy journey'. She has thought of every food/takeaway and pointed it. I can't link it as my work won't let me access it but if you google it it will come up.

Hope the ladies who are having a bad week have a better one on the coming week

Sorry that was a bit long

Kayzr · 11/06/2009 11:43

It is that time of the month and I always put on then. I use that website, it is brilliant!!

I've done it before too and do all of my tracking online so I can't see it being ,uch different.

mammyto1 · 11/06/2009 11:46

Aww well there you go you will have a big loss next week

mammyto1 · 11/06/2009 13:12

Just wondering if any one had any dinner ideas that used eggs?

Blondeshavemorefun · 11/06/2009 14:17

omg what a fantastic site - thank you - have stuck it in my favourites

food points

kayz -dont worry - your scales are prob different so you prob havent put any weight on

mammy - i like 3point ommlette - made with 2 eggs, and then lots of onions and cherry toms
had fried egg on toast yesterday for lunch - really fancied it

dontdillydally · 11/06/2009 21:51

had my weigh in today - didnt go last wek and have just been away for the weekend - lost 3.5 pounds - now 14.5pounds (7 weeks).

I was surprised as although I hadnt trogged out I did have large glasses of wine, however my leader pointed out that I had walked around a theme park for 6 hours per day so that must of helped.

Kayr - its your choice but for me I NEED the committment of going to a meeitng each week, I wont have scales in the house so it encourages me again to be disciplined. If youve had a bad week, dont be disappointed, just get back int he "zone" and try and stick to it.

Remember we have all been there and are here to help you

GossipMonger · 11/06/2009 22:30

how many pts for Bachelors super noodles, chicken flavour please?

Blondeshavemorefun · 12/06/2009 07:44

gossip - how many calories and sat fat did it say on the packet?

im a bit pissed off - i have been fairly good, apart from that bit of chocolate cakeand been to the gym 3times soexpected a loss of a lb and instead stayed the same

but least i didnt put on

mammyto1 · 12/06/2009 08:22

Gossip I am pretty sure they are 9 or 9.5pt a packet.

Blonde as you say at least you didn't put on and look at how much you have already lost!!

Well I have been givving it my all this week and have lost 5lb!! so bloody happy as I haven't lost anything since Dec.

I made a carrot and corriander soup last night which is delish but didn't realise corriander could be so spicy, I must have added too much

Blondeshavemorefun · 12/06/2009 12:01

omg 9 a packet - i guessimated 6

5lbs is fab-well done -always good to have a big loss the first week you start

alas i feel that i will gain next week as out a lot eating and drinking this weekend - will try and be good, but ......

wwow - how was weighing today? hopefully will see you tomorrow 4ish for wine diet coke
