Buda def going to make that salado

bobbiewickham · 28/05/2010 17:59

That salad looks gorge.

Had a not so good day, but not disastrous.

Still plateauing like a good 'un, but with the week I've had I'm just glad I haven't been living on deep fried mars bars and wine.

Hopefully things will settle soon and I can re-enter the hallowed Zone.

DukesOfTripHazard · 28/05/2010 18:51

Your zone throne is being kept all lovely for you Bob. Have been thinking of you this week and wishing you well. Never having met you and not knowing what's up doesn't seem to be detrimental to the vibes

cyb · 28/05/2010 19:08

argh carbs, white bread rolls, pasta (only smally portion but argh)milk tray, best wishes cake, argh argh argh

Themasterandmargaritas · 28/05/2010 19:13

best wishes cake?

I was doing so well at zoning, pita with veg and salad for lunch even though I was out at the place I always eat CHIPS at, then spicy fish and salado for sup.

However, I made the fatal error of going to a three year olds birthday party in between. And there was this delicious caramel nutty thing that you don't get here and well, it just jumped into my mouth. The SHAME.

I'm now drinking cider.

cocolepew · 28/05/2010 19:14

I feel your pain cyb, I think I'm overdosing with the carbs (not cake though [hard stare])
and I think eating them makes me want to eat more.

Either that or I'm a greedy pig.

cornsilkcottagecheese · 28/05/2010 19:15

I am off to Waitrose but don't know what to get for tea. Am feeling guilty as have missed gym again>

cyb · 28/05/2010 19:16

yes ...best wishes cake. People were sending me best wishes via the medium of cake.

Themasterandmargaritas · 28/05/2010 19:17

Coke, the pup comes on Tuesday. We are still doing the name battle, Mac, Merlin, Spike or Jedi . Molly is nice and tame.

cocolepew · 28/05/2010 19:18

A best wishes carrot isn't quite the same though.

DottyDot · 28/05/2010 19:18

oh god went right off the rails last night - met up with an old friend and went out on the town for the first time in about 9 years! Had huge Chinese meal, bottle of wine and about 10 gin and oranges...

Plus started my period so all in all feeling like I've put on about half a stone and am very F A T ....

cocolepew · 28/05/2010 19:19

hahahaha Jedi is fab

DottyDot · 28/05/2010 19:21

Buda that's brilliant by the way - as someone who's yet to dip under the 100 mark am very jealous pleased for you!

Well done to everyone else as well - and please god let me start getting over this hangover soon....

cocolepew · 28/05/2010 19:21

Another thing, I've been hideously tired this week. I'm blaming that on carbs too.

cyb · 28/05/2010 19:22

me too coco

have fallen by the zone wayside somewhat

dont seem to be heavier on the scales

but am def more 'full'

Themasterandmargaritas · 28/05/2010 19:34

I ran 6.5k today in the pouring rain, that is dedication.

Perhaps it's the type of carbs affecting the bloatedness (did I just make a word up?), rather than the carbs per se?

Can't bloody order shoes on Dune website, something to do with living in a banana republic. Bet they won't be in the shops when I get back.

cocolepew · 28/05/2010 19:39

I think I'm going mad. Seriously, I keep seeing 'things' out off the corner of my eyes, as if a spider ran across the floor. Smelling smells that nobody else can, it was poo the other day and vomit today, and hearing noises' like a baby wailing or sirens.

I've gone loopy

cyb · 28/05/2010 19:49

yes marg I think you ahve a point
have def eaten more crap

MUST STOP

duckyfuzz · 28/05/2010 19:58

congrats to losers and sympathies to nonlosers I have lost 7lb this week which sounds great, but then I am now 11st1 which is what I was a few weeks back, so have only myself to blame and cyb I ate loads a couple of weeks ago, nothing showed on scales until the end of last week, hence serious bootcamp this week. Now I need to keep it off over half term, which will be a challenge...

bobbiewickham · 28/05/2010 20:00

Dukes, that's a lovely message, thank you

Themasterandmargaritas · 28/05/2010 20:03

CUT THE CRAP

TAKE YOUR FACE OUTTA THE FRIDGE

pointydog · 28/05/2010 20:05

fuck a duck. How on earth do you lose 7 lb in one week?

cocolepew · 28/05/2010 20:06

Did you chop off an arm?

pointydog · 28/05/2010 20:08

ah, it's weigh-in day here, isn't it?

I weigh 10st 12, same as last friday but I was actually a shade under that this morning. And it means that although I have weekend treats, I am still holding and losing.

dinkystinky · 28/05/2010 20:10

Coco - I have a v sensitive sense of smell so can smell stuff other people dont too. And a v sensitive sense of hearing so hear stuff DH and others dont too. Is maddening.

Ducky - good going! Keep up the good work.

Cyb - you know you can zone it when you put your mind to it. What happened to not focusing on the scales but just not eating crap as a new way of life? You need to get back to the fabulous Cyb who was all ready and zoned and trim for her partay.

Bobs - good that you've sts given the week you've had. Take care of yourself and hope you have a good weekend.

Buda - forgot to do big woop woop for you earlier. Great stuff. So you will be under that magic milestone for the ball tomorrow Your zone - godmother was clearly listening when you made that wish.

pssst Aitch - re the dresses. I LOVE them. Red one V flattering in a drapey ruched kind of way - much better with Good Underwear on under them. Sizes come up a little small - I went for a medium which fits fine - am a 10-12 (more often than not a 12). Is lovely and moves beautifully when you walk too. And the sleeves are v flattering on the arm area.
