Say 2 Hail Marys and have the jam.

BariatricObama · 08/05/2010 08:58

thread should be 'nuffink taste as good as wot being finn feels innit'

cyb · 08/05/2010 09:03

JB EAT THE JAM

we can still enjoy food ...but now you know you can't eat a whole loaf smeared with the stuff. eat it, enjoy it, forget about it.

Buda wowzers well done feels good eh?

BariatricObama · 08/05/2010 09:13

yes eat the jam

buda well done! it is alwasy nice to turn on a stone (not that i have done that for a while)

SuSylvester · 08/05/2010 09:27

buda what did you start at?

rememebr to KEEP the feeling somwhere for when you are tempted by biffage

JackBauer · 08/05/2010 09:33

I am overthinking aren't I?

However, it isn't consuming me in a 'OOh, that's tastes so nice I really want some' way, but in a 'I love my MIL and want to honour her' kind of way (still 50/50 whetehr she'll get out of hospital at all)

smallishsheep · 08/05/2010 09:44

I think 'there's nothing lucky about it, put the bun down fatso' is my new mantra. It does me good to remember that actually, no, the weight didn't just melt away, I had to work at it, and continued biffage won't make me unlucky- twill make me a fatso with no self control. ZONE

smallishsheep · 08/05/2010 09:46

Though I should say I am waiting in for a parcel delivery which I think we all agree is most dull, and could be enlivened muchly by some cake or somesuch. Am sticking to my coffee and rushing out of the door as soon as the bastard thing gets here

isthatporridgeinyourzone · 08/05/2010 09:46

Well done Buda and FGS eat the jam, Jack. Life is too short not to have a bit of jam once in a while.

I am sooo looking forward to our imaginary travelodge meet up - corn based accessories, crocheted eyeware, shake to wake, a skip, Shiney banging on the door asking to be let in...

Out to lunch with DH and Baby Porridge as Porridge Boy is out for a birthday party. Am thinking smoked fish, pickles... still zoning.

smallishsheep · 08/05/2010 09:54

Hmm the most recent picture I have of myself is 2.5 stone up and slightly pissed. Will be staying private I think.
Did take a blinder of a pic of ds yesterday though. He looks like a baby David Cameron, which offends the lefty in me

JackBauer · 08/05/2010 10:08

I am loving the mantra, it is staying as my status I think.
I think there might be even more uproar if it was a thread title though Would be funny though.

Apparently it is DD1's stuffed elephants birthday today She has requested biscuits and cake. Luckily I have some of that instead cookie dough and a cake mix in the back of the cupboartd somewhere, and I hate them, they taste all ming, so I can safely do a baking session and then let the girls eat all the shit food.

Stuck in today and DH working all weekend, as usual, we don't really do weekends as they are pretty much any opther day except DD1 isn't in school and the park is jammed, make me jealous, what are you all upn to?

bobbiewickham · 08/05/2010 10:17

Well done, Buda!

I ate pringles (yuk) and a yorkie biscuit bar last night. They were both vile and they didn't make me happy.

I am eating fine until about eight o'clock, then I have a glass or two of wine and biff out.

I need to stop. It's creeping back on again.

My meals are fine. It's emotional eating I think. Need to dig out my Paul McKenna book again.

I'm doing a big shop today, then my two best friends are coming round for dinner as dh is going out. I'm making Jamie Oliver fish pie and buying a lemon tart, of which I will eat a sliver.

Have just had bran flakes and will subsist on fruit all day so I can eat without guilt tonight.

BudaisintheZONE · 08/05/2010 10:45

Thanks all! Except for Jack!! Jack - you have lost more than me already though. And have the jam. Will it make you happy? Yes it probably will! (Maybe if MIL gets out of hospital you could make jam with her - she could supervise.)

Su - I started at 16 10 but I have been as high as 16 12. But I was 16st 10 on 22 March so have lost just over 10 lbs. Am not really tempted by biffage at the moment. Am really fine eating the way I am. Have SO much more energy. And am not going hungry. I don't feel deprived or that I am on a 'diet'.

Didn't walk dog. Instead I drove to Margit Island which is an island in the middle of the Danube which has a 5k running track around the perimeter. I walked it. Haven't done it for a couple of years now. It took me an hour and I wore a pedometer and it was 7,160 steps. Feelin' good!!!

Next goal is to get under the 100k mark. So 1.6 k to go which is 3.52 lbs.

BudaisintheZONE · 08/05/2010 10:49

Oh - bfast was a 50g measured amount of granola - have realised I was having a HUGE portion! Came back starving and have justhad 3 oatcakes with Philly light and a banana.

DukesOfTripHazard · 08/05/2010 12:00

Jack I applaud you having THOUGHT about jam for 3 days and not had any. FGS go for it. Maybe cut into four nice squares. Just one slice. Yumm.

Have created a profile and pic is ready to go although want to assemble some sort of before and after too in order to be relevant (which I'm often not)

Bob. Got a good snack for you. Prawns with a bit of sweet chilli sauce for dippage. This yorkie/kitkat shit needs booting to the kerb. No more, goddit? Got to break the habit.

dinkystinky · 08/05/2010 12:02

Jack - hope you were jammin' this morning. A little bit of what you fancy is fine! Just be good the rest of the time.

Hurrah Buda on hitting the 15s. Great stuff.

Have fab lunch out Porridge.

Am off to deepest darkest kent shortly but doing quick check in so dont have 50000 messages to catch up on when am back on line.

Where is Aitch??? She has GOT to read the wedding thriller thread - the wedding is tonight! Will be pmsling at 8.45 at the thought of it...

dinkystinky · 08/05/2010 12:03

Ooh prawns with sweet chilli sauce - drool. One of my favourites. Right now really going to go and bugger off now.

DukesOfTripHazard · 08/05/2010 12:04

I have the next 5 and a half hours entirely to myself!!!

List of things to do:

Cappucino
Pilates DVD
Bath with The Grauniad
Put away lots of clean clothes (snore)
Sort wardbrobe, chuck some out.
Make some notes for a work thing (snore but it will bug me if I don't. Might literally give it five mins)

Will start with top one and as soon as poss do second. Without second nothing will be as good as slim feels

cocolepew · 08/05/2010 12:04

Hmmmm I might put a photo on later (if I can figure out how to do it). It's a fat bird one though, don't have any recent ones.

cyb · 08/05/2010 12:05

I'm going to clean out my under stairs cupboard....Its like the bloody black hole of Calcutta in there. And all the shoes make it stink

cyb · 08/05/2010 12:06

JackBauer · 08/05/2010 12:55

JackBauer · 08/05/2010 12:55

JackBauer · 08/05/2010 13:00

Lucky dukes, am very

Dh has just left for work, will be back at 9.

I just got back from a 2.5 mile run, my longest ever apart from teh 5k last year with my sis, which she bullied encouraged me round.

No Jam yet. I just have done so well that I don't want to reward myself with food. Need to get to shops for eggs and stuff later so might get some ryvita to have with it.
