Blondes, it looks gorgeous there. The menu is fab!!

Mabs, I don't think I could diet I I was going through what you are with your DS. So I think you are doing well to exercise.

Trimmer, lucky you getting free hot drinks!!

I'm actually quite worried about this week coming. I have the week off work and I am at my worst when I am at home. I get bored and then I snack. Maybe I'll have to get some knitting out.

Kayzr · 14/02/2010 13:36

Trimmer, I get the curry packs from here. I live near York so usually go in and get a load of them but they do deliver. The shop smells absolutely gorgeous.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/02/2010 13:45

TRIMMER I DONT LIKE COFFEE,BUT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAD A TREAT, I DO LIKE DAIRY MILK and yes lovely in thesummer,spent many a night there with friends

PBM erm, one of my other real likes is salmon, and i boil 60g rice in a stock cube in water to give rice a taste, add very finely chopped carrots,courgette+peppers to water, cook salmon in microwave for 2mins and then got a yummy meal for 6.5p - i then once on the plate grind my garlic/herbs grinder over it, and you know how much i like my 0point bns/onion soup - hope you all feel better soon and think how manys cals you are saving not doing vd!!

kayzr i am the same, and meeting friends for boozey healthy lunches 3 days - but i will try+eat healthily and have cicken+veg or salmon+salad

mabs agree you are doing so well with all the shit that life throws at you+ds

have just shaken my roasted veggies again and they smell devine - cant beleive they are 0 points, its the bns that makes it so nice+sweet

Hi all, being very good so I don't end up feeling bad after dinner! Really want to enjoy it! Think I am just a bit coz I wanted to lose 1.5st before my school reunion next Sat. I was about 9st when I left school!

Trimmer - lucky you with the coffee! DD is 18months, she is still snotty but I think it's mainly teething. The cough is still going on all night! But she is fine in herself!

Kayzr - curry sounds fab! I chickened out of cooking and we bought a finest meal deal from Tesco! Loads of food (and bottle of Cava) for £15!!

Blondes - just the sound of that food is making my mouth water!

Kayzr · 14/02/2010 13:56

It's funny how life changes. When I was at school I was bullied for being so thin and I spent about 7 years trying to put weight on. Now I'm trying to lose it.

Poohbearsmom · 14/02/2010 13:56

Kay im now craving curry! Wish i was able to make soufflé's Trimmer lucky u love free stuff ! Blondes that menu made me drool mmmmmmmmmm have a super time xxx

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/02/2010 13:58

BEBE i went to my school 20yr reunion last year and i would say that half of us were fatter than at school, so dont worry - think how well you have done so far and only 4lbs off target

was nice to catch up with everyone tho

i did look at the finest meals in tesco/sains/waitroise etc but dh is a fussy git and knew he wouldnt eat what i liked, hence why easier to go out and nice that you can choose off normal menu if you dont like anything on vd menu

bebejones · 14/02/2010 15:24

Blondes - My DH is v fussy too, we looked at the meals & he said 'will I like that?'....I said 'Of course!', but avoided all eye contact!!

All my friends seem to be skinny, friends with all of them on fb. I have had a baby though...but can't blame her for all the weight gain!! Losing 4lbs will take me to pre DD weight! and she is 18months old! Ooops! Kayzr - I was one of the thinest people in my year at school, now I'm one of the fattest! All my own fault really!

MABS · 14/02/2010 15:28

thanks girls

Kayzr · 14/02/2010 17:49

I am just about to lower the tone a bit here. You know that people say that sex is a good exercise and is meant to work all your muscles. How many activity points do you think you could get?

Just wondering as I never work out activity points for sex but thought I might start.

GettinTrimmer · 14/02/2010 18:01

Blondes will be along later I'm sure with the answer

If done energetically I would say similar to aerobics.

Blondeshavemorefun · 14/02/2010 18:17

now why would you think that of me trimmer?

i was told that for every 60mins of hard grunting loving , you get 4p, so i make that 1 p per 15mins

i dont use my sexercise points anymore than my gym points but i will say that you MUST earn more/burn more calories going on top

mr blondes have never had it so good recently lol!!

right,off for our meal, and sure there will be sexercise later in the blondes household - anything to burn pudding off eh girls!!

have a lovely night all, and i will update meal (and sex ) tomorrow xx

Kayzr · 14/02/2010 18:40

No sex here due to period but it is good to know.

Disenchanted3 · 14/02/2010 18:42

Lol at sexercise points!

My DH dared me to ask my WW leader how many points seamen is! hahahaha

OP posts:
Disenchanted3 · 14/02/2010 18:43

semen even, I'm sure a whole fisher man would be at least a weeks worth of points!

Still the same this morning despite the huge meal of bad stuff last night! Was so good, but got drunk on 2 glasses of Cava! I rarely drink & had eaten practically nothing all day! Worth it though!

Eddas · 15/02/2010 08:01

Morning ladies!

I've stayed the same this week which is fine as I haven't been very good Still at least I wasn't expecting to lose unlike other weeks!!!!

GettinTrimmer · 15/02/2010 08:15

Due to my scales, I am not sure if I've lost. First of all it read as having gained 1lb. Then I moved them, got on again, and it said 1/2lb loss.

So....I am going to log myself as 1/2lb loss!

bebe & Eddas Good on staying the same.

Tubby Well done on your 2.5lb loss.

Do you think the list could be further trimmed? I can see about 9 members who haven't posted for ages.

GettinTrimmer · 15/02/2010 08:25

I am not expecting 2 stone loss by the end of March, but I have given myself a short term goal of another 6lb off by easter, 6 weeks to go at 1lb per week.

Is it 6 weeks in now?

A very big pat on the back to all of us for staying with it! I can now do up a pair of purple velvet trousers, still tight but 6 weeks ago I couldn't get them on.

Eddas · 15/02/2010 08:32

There's no way i will be 2 stone lighter by end of March either!! I am however hoping to be 1 stone lighter, which is acheiveable if I stop eating the wrong things! It's 6 weeks til 29th March and I think i'm a lb a week girl too so that would mean I need to lose a lb a week to get to one stone gone and OMG I would be nearly 11 stone I can't wait til I can say i'm 10st something but I have 8lbs to go before I hit 11stone so it's a way off yet still it's going in the right direction.

Eddas · 15/02/2010 08:34

congrats on the trousers trimmer

I haven't changed size but some of the trousers I couldn't wear as they we're too tight actually fit now and aren't cutting me in half so that's good! Isn't it annoying that you could buy all the same size and some fit and some don't? All my trousers are size 16 but i've been living in only a few of them as they others were too tight it's nice to have a bit more choice now

Kayzr · 15/02/2010 08:46

Well done on all the losses.

I will not have lost 2 stone by the end of March. I have 6lb to lose to reach a stone so I am hoping to have lost a stone.

I haven't tried any smaller trousers as I am too scared that they are still to small. Though I have lost half a stone.
