Morning ladies!

Bobbie reporting from sick bed. Have been up all night puking - God knows why - and now feel like I've been run over by a steamroller.

BUT

Still managed to weigh myself, and I've lost 2lbs, so every cloud...

START WEIGHT - 11stone 12
CURRENT WEIGHT - 11st 7
TOTAL LOSS SO FAR - 5lbs.

Well done all losers.

NomDePlume · 16/04/2010 08:54

Good weigh in today, I have actually lost (hurrah)

This weeks weight - 9st 12lbs
This weeks loss - 1lb
Total loss - 7lbs

So I am back to pre easter biff weight. Not an amazing loss but at least the scales are going in the right direction and I did have chips and chocolate brownie yesterday (chips were yuck, brownie was yum)

cyb · 16/04/2010 08:56

How are you all doing this? What do I do? My eating habits are more or less the same as when I was thin (pre kids) only I don't smoke now

BariatricObama · 16/04/2010 09:00

i am 11 4 (.2) this morning. which i am v. pleased with considering outlandish biffing that went on last week. still trying to find my way back to the one. nom i am also back to pre easter biffing weight. which is encouraging, i was on the point of throwing in teh towel yesterday.

well done losers, mrshu hope family are released from beneath the volcanic forcefield soon

everyone else sorry but i don't have time to read whole thread but you are in my prayers!

bobbiewickham · 16/04/2010 09:00

Do you know, cyb as I was chucking up last night I was thinking, "this'll help".

How bad is that?

BariatricObama · 16/04/2010 09:00

oh stats

ultimate biffer weight 11 11
current 11 4
loss 7

cyb · 16/04/2010 09:01

ok I am maninly having

branflakes for breakfast. no toast

NO SNACKS. I'm not even allowed fruit anymore (crap teeth)

But if I'm starving I will have an oatcake or two, or a cube of cheese

Lunch, salado, soup or MUCh smaller portion than I used to have of what everyone else is having. Not so much buttery mash as I used to ahve for example

Evening meal again a much msaller portion of whatever anyone else is having. Others are having just meat/fish and veg/salado

I am trying to fix my eating for ever, not just to get to a target weight

And I've dropped sugar and bread, which was hard at first but fine now. basically I am trying to eat like a healthy slim person not the greedy goat I had become

BariatricObama · 16/04/2010 09:02

cyb · 16/04/2010 09:03

bobbiewickham · 16/04/2010 09:05

Thanks BO.

I know cyb. Instant flat stomach

cyb · 16/04/2010 09:07

BO you andI are ploughing the same furrow I think. Did we talk about how tall you are|? Not sure why that matters to me.but it does

OP posts:
noddyholder · 16/04/2010 09:07

I think that thrill at having the runs is every woman's secret shame!The flat stomach is overnight

chibi · 16/04/2010 09:11

Thanks cyb I can do that

I am v conscious of setting a good example for the kids especially dd- don't want to be a neurotic dieting mother iyswim

basically I want what I'm doing to be more or less imperceptible to all but v observant folk

have never dieted but I can try eating less

I am 11 st 7 today, will reweigh next week

bobbiewickham · 16/04/2010 09:12

I literally stood up, rinsed my mouth and got on the scales.

At three in the morning.

Obsessed.

bobbiewickham · 16/04/2010 09:13

ooh, chibi, we weigh the same.

How tall are you?

MmeLindt · 16/04/2010 09:18

Coco
How is your DD? Was it DD2? I will get DD to email her.

Friend's flight cancelled, does not look like she will get here.

It is my fault. Mea culpa and all that. I jinxed Iceland with my sleepover for the DC so that we could go out and get drunk celebrate with my Irish friend.

Bobbie
Hope you are feeling better this morning.

Forgot to weigh myself, but no point anyway since I was so outwith the Zoooone since Easter.

Have not one but two meals out today. Although the one tonight is probably cancelled.

NomDePlume · 16/04/2010 09:20

I am out for dinner tonight with mates (one of whom is also on ww) so I will have to try very hard not to uberbiff. Think zone, NDP, think zone. I will eat extra light in the day just to be on the safe side

chibi · 16/04/2010 09:23

I am 5 ft 6

dh swears I carry it well but sadly my inner thighs are still on speaking terms = a soupçon of rubbing

bobbiewickham · 16/04/2010 09:27

I'm 5ft 7, so we're nearly on the same page.

Like you, I kind of get away with it. I have a long torso and small boobs, so with clever dressing can look not too bad.

But I have the inner thigh thing - and a muffin top, rolly belly and chunky arms.

Basically, I seem to have reverse anorexia. I look in the mirror and see a thin person - then I see a photo and realise I'm kidding myself!

bobbiewickham · 16/04/2010 09:29

Thanks, Mme Lindt, feel rubbish but am making most of bed rest.

Just heard that poor ds1 spent all night throwing up at his friend's house, so it must be a bug.

Just hope dh and ds2 don't get it

gherkinwithapurplemerkin · 16/04/2010 09:39

Oh poor bobbie and ds (esp horrible away from home)
Weee-lll..I am a tincy shade under 11 st today. So I am calling that 10st13 (cheat). But I really need the morale boost so it is allowed.

Weight today 10st 13 (ahem)

Total 7lbs

Well done to all with more honest substantial losses.

LadyBlaBlah · 16/04/2010 09:42

Despite the fact I seem to have become allergic to myself and my life, the zone is having some positive effects.
