Yy, waaaay too much makeup.

That's a genius way of losing weight though pointy, v good on food.

One mug of soup left, 3 gone already.
Will save it for when DH gets home and scoffs his tea with garlic bread...

Lol, ZoneA - it's just a Shit Dress, is what it is.

Still dining out (or not) on tummy bug here. Appetite not quite up to full strength, so have had some branflakes and soup today and may have little stirfry later.

Two people told me I looked thinner today! Nice when that happens...

geordieminx · 19/04/2010 15:40

Hey ladies!

I am sooooooooooo in the zone.

Have lost another 3lb over the weekend, instead of putting 1 or 2lb on then having to starve during the week.

I have now lost 13lb, am sat on 10st, but have fingers crossed, that tomorrow I will be 9 something.... I will dance. Naked.

Dropped ds off at playschool for the first time in 3 weeks as its been closed for hols, and then went and had a wee bit of retail therapy as a treat for doing well. Pleather jacket, sun t-dress type thing and a denim skirt all from New Look.

Was meant to be having lamb kebabs for tea tonight but forgot to take them out of the freezer. Ooops.

Off to catch up.

I was told I had , and I quote, 'Tiny Hips' today.

Me! The 14/16 heffer.

but seems I am the heffer of yore

Not even a mini egg passed my lips today

but had a slice of spelt toast with egg at lunch and my guts are rebelling

I thought spelt bread was suppose to be ok?

noddyholder · 19/04/2010 16:06

A trip to the shops and I'm in teh zone!

duckyfuzz · 19/04/2010 16:08

wow geordieminx that is fab!

congrats on compliments cyb

no compliments coming my way this week, have period pot belly and accompanying munchies (but am munching on seeds, in the hope that I will get nice skin to complensate for the extra pounds)

click is everyone safely home from their travels now? about 10 staff off at my school today, one lucky one in the dominican republic

AitchTwoZone · 19/04/2010 16:37

duckyfuzz · 19/04/2010 16:37

sunshine a big help, sadly its freezing up here

I have had my favourite size 14s altered to fit and sold, bagged or binned the rest, so I can never relapse

geordieminx · 19/04/2010 16:55

Aitch - I'm always bloated before I come on, although on the plus side, once I come on, I usually loose a couple of lb's

MamaG · 19/04/2010 16:56

ooh at tiny hips

pointydog · 19/04/2010 16:56

congrats geordie - how long did it take you to lose that?

pointydog · 19/04/2010 16:57

I found a chocolate lolly in my work bag (getting ready for work tomorrow) and by gum it was a hard hard job not to eat it.

ClickNegg · 19/04/2010 16:57

gpoodwork geordie

ReshapeWhileDamp · 19/04/2010 17:01

Bum. Just hoovered up the rest of a packet of Thai prawn crackers. They are my dad's. Right that's it, the grandparents are LEAVING. Now.

Thanks for tipoff about Portsmouth bedlam, Juno/Click. Have txted DH. Not that he can do much about it...

geordieminx · 19/04/2010 17:01

Its taken 12 weeks which is ridiculous. I have managed to loose 8lb in 2 weeks.

Thats the frustrating part, that if I had settled down to it back in Jan I could have been sorted by the end of feb, and just into maintain mode. The fact that I have yo-yo'd since then means I have prolonged the agony.

Silly me.

I definately have my mojo back. I actually dont want food at the moment. I have no interest, although obviously I am eating. A few weeks ago I was craving alsorts and snacking constantly, but it isnt on my radar at the moment.

pointydog · 19/04/2010 17:04

12 weeks to lose pretty much a stone isn't bad at all. And at least you have sorted yourself out for the better weather

I only have 11 to go

AitchTwoZone · 19/04/2010 17:06

good for you, geordie. i do think the first stone is sooooo noticeable. i think i'll try to lose another, though, as am not finding the diet too horrific.

interesting article in the mail about the dukan diet. among other things, he recommends once on maintenance diet (eating all food groups) having one day of only protein so as to accommodate little weight gains through the week. iykwim? which makes sense if you think about it as you always lose 1-2 lb on first protein-only day of diet.

ReshapeWhileDamp · 19/04/2010 17:06

Bwahahaa! DS has just texted me to say that now he's on his 24 hour coach to Le Havre, his linen trousers have 'split fatally' and he can't get at his bag in the hold. Am singing 'Who ate all the Paella' back at him cos I'm childish.

geordieminx · 19/04/2010 17:06

No, its not bad, the fact that I have lost 8 of the 14lb in the 2 weeks makes me wonder why I didnt get my lard arse into gear in the first place!

Had skinny jeans and wedges on at the weekend and felt slinky
