Oh dinky, poor you, fingers crossed it is all over soon and you can get back to non biffdom.

Started 17st 4, 15st 10 again this morning, most pissed off, but then I started my period (a week early, grrr) which I didn't see coming so hoping it is water retentiona nd next week will be better.
Have also been bifftastic this week which probably didn't helop.

WELL DONE buda!

Cheeese, you'll have to change your name to BugInCheeeeese, ew. sorry about fight, is crappy when you lead into weekend in grumps, hope you make it up later.

Undertone · 18/06/2010 17:56

Dinky - you have the worst job... ever - by the sounds of it!

14 stone on the nose this morning. That's not quite a pound off. Damn you, weirdly-alluring-but-much-regretted pie on Saturday!

Hardcore this week. Grrr. or more like ROAR!

Well done all losers and holders.

pointydog · 18/06/2010 18:13

well done pointy!

under, a loss is still a loss.

I fear we are all losing the fear thanks to the loss of our fearless leader, we must find her and drag bring her back into the fold to yell at us.

NomDePlume · 18/06/2010 20:02

Happy happy happy today.

I HAVE REACHED GOAL !!!

2.5lbs down this week

START WEIGHT - 10st 5lbs

LAST WEEKS WEIGHT - 9st 9.5lbs
THIS WEEKS WEIGHT - 9st 7lbs
THIS WEEK LOSS - 2.5lb

TOTAL LOSS - 12lb

HEIGHT - 5' 7"

Although I'm counting my weight from this bout of dieting, I was 10st 11lbs at my heaviest 18 mo ago,got down to 10st on ww stopped dieting and then put another 5lb on. So from my heaviest I have lost a total of 18lbs.

Just need to keep up the toning and off the biffing. I could prob stand to lose another 4 or lbs but we'll see how I get on, the toning might make things look a little better.

NomDePlume · 18/06/2010 20:11

Pointy - WOW on the stone. well dne

Buda, I hadn't realised you've lost so much - 17lbs! Brilliant.

Dinky - work sounds shite atm, sympathies

QT - Even though you've not lost this week you've lost a lot since you started. Try not to lose heart

QualityTime · 18/06/2010 20:20

FairhairedandFrustrated · 18/06/2010 22:25

Oh wow! Everyoe is doing great!

I had a bbq this evening, I was v virtious & just had lean meat & salad - left the burgers & hotdogs to everyone else!!

cornsilkey · 18/06/2010 22:26

I have just eaten a tub of ice-cream - arrrgh! I was actually admiring my midriff before. All my good work wasted....

FairhairedandFrustrated · 18/06/2010 22:34

Did it taste as goos as being slim feels????

Haaa... I bet it was delicious!! Though I have to say I don't like ice-cream!!

cornsilkey · 18/06/2010 22:35

It was orgasmic - coconut and lime....
I have not been good this week but that was my worst biff.

QualityTime · 18/06/2010 23:09

I am not eating chocolate.
Oh yes no

cornsilkey · 18/06/2010 23:11

I'm on the quavers now - I'm a lost cause.

FairhairedandFrustrated · 18/06/2010 23:22

My Friday night biffage has consisted of pineapple & cottage cheese

Wanted a Mars Bar but dh is working night shifts & the kids are in bed Some good comes out of it then, eh?

tostaky · 19/06/2010 08:55

ive been really good this week, only had a few treats, no snacks at all. yay me!

only thing is i still need to buy some bathroom scales otherwise i wont know whether ive lost.

BudaisintheZONE · 19/06/2010 09:06

Morning all.

We bbq'd last night - chicken, one sausage, corn on the cob, lots of salad and a potato. Friday night treat of a mini magnum.

I had spelt toast this morning. One slice with cheese and one with ginger preserve. Am making soup for lunch. Not sure about dinner yet.

Rained yesterday mostly. Supposed to be sunny today - haven't seen it yet. And forecast is for rain for the rest of the week. Unbelievable weather for here for this time of year. It is normally hot and sunny every day.

F&F - your biffage sounds yummy! Much better for you than a Mars Bar. And I bet you are feeling all virtuous this morning.

dinkystinky · 19/06/2010 13:45

Tostaky - convert to the cult of the trousers and listen to them as to whether or not you've lost weight while you're deciding on your scales to buy.

Yesterday was shocker again - in meetings till 3 in the morning, back at work at 8 and finally got home at 4 this morning, up at 7 to deal with kids and do more work from home and back to meetings on this fricking deal on Monday - if it doesnt sign on Monday I may well just shoot myself. Now have that delightful jet lag feeling from lack of sleep. Ho hum. On plus side, as was no food at meetings last night, didnt eat from 1pm yesterday so at least biffage was avoided... Am going to have a weekend out of the zone but do some exercise and get back on into the zone on Monday.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend. That icecream sounded divine Cornie - definitely well worth stepping out the zone for. Nom - hurrah on hitting goal and then some - fab stuff! Pointy - yay on the stone mark - whoop whoop!

dinkystinky · 20/06/2010 08:55

Typical, I can finally get back on the thread and everyone has buggered off...

QualityTime · 20/06/2010 12:06

Can you believe this nearly fell off my threads I'm on? I am posting waaay too much since I got opera on my phone but once a thread goes over 400 I can't open it!

Dinky, it just sounds awful, I really am praying you sign on Monday (although have no idea what you do...)

back to 15st 10 after going up 2lb yesterday, definate period relating weigh gain, am hoping will bugger off next week.
No exercise in a few days but knee feeling much ebtter so may shred later, by the time DH gets back from work will be too blinking hot to run.
food not great yesterday, we have reached that desperate stage where the food is running out, today is roast beef with all teh trimmings though, so lots of roast veg and lovely rare beef.
Am trying to decide whether I can have yorkshires, i mean, it's eggs milk andf flour, not that bad.

DH wants some of my home made hobnobs, which will be tricky not to scoff, and a lemon drizzle, even trickier, so will make tiny batches, I havea 4inch springfoem cake tin somewhere

Been to park already, now got to make lunch for dd's, bath them wash, nitcomb and cut their hair, it may well turn me to white bread and butter.

BudaisintheZONE · 21/06/2010 08:06

Morning all.

Dinky - hope this week better than last and you get to the end of that dreaded deal.

Well it was a non Zone weekend here. Started well but had 2 choc chip caramel cookies on Sat afternoon, then crisps and then Ben & Jerry's ice cream. That was my planned weekend biffing because we weren't doing anything else. Then ended up going out for bunch with some friends yesterday - had sushi, noodles and dessert.

Huge storm hit in evening and our basement flooded. Again. In fact it was a torrent. Niagra Falls through a window. DH and I spent an hour trying to stop it and then bail as much out as possible before landlord sent someone over. So my planned bowl of fruit and green tea in evening turned into wine, sandwiches and crisps.

Landlord keeps telling me this is all unusual rain for Hungary. Which it is for this time of year. But this is about our 9th flood in this house. Tempted to move except we only have another year here. I told landlord last night that I am not paying rent on basement anymore. He is coming over tonight and we will be looking for a reduction in the rent. If not DH says we will just move back to UK earlier. Which in a lot of ways would be fine by me.

And am now missing DH's sports day at school as have to wait in for guy to come and finish mop-up operations.

QualityTime · 21/06/2010 10:04

Shit buda, another flood? and missing sports day sucks, any chance you can get a neighbour or landlord to come over and sit in?

Am sitting ehre waiting for bloody mechanic to come and pick up the car, was supposed ot be just after 9 so I could go round to my mates, but nothing yet, so DD2 is in front of the telly and I am here, can't even go into garden as I won't hear the door. Humph.

DukesOfTripHazard · 21/06/2010 10:23

Dinky how goes it?

QualityTime · 21/06/2010 10:58

Am hoping dinky has signed her deal and is in the pub biffing on peanuts
