Hi @kazz43 ..just spotted your post
of course you can join us..and well done at this week's loss.
@DinoDana yay, for your -2lb this week, it's well deserved
I measure bust, under bust (this is always the first place I lose from) waist, hips, upper thigh (last place on my legs to go) thigh and calf. There's a few on here that measure upper arms that I hadn't thought of doing but once I start doing a workout for them I will be.
@Wheekers ..also just spotted your SW awards and well jeal! I've not long joined SW and will be over the moon to get my 1/2 award X

Wowza Denise, that's fantastic..amazing the difference speed makes..well done, you must be so chuffed X
STS this week, but happy with that as it's been so stressful my hand has been in the chocolate & SW has been out of the window. Back on it now though and determined to log a loss next week

Thanks Tibbs. I was surprised by how much I lost. I've had a couple of sts weeks too- I cheered myself up by reminding myself it could have been worse. Good luck for your coming week. Here's hoping for losses all around.Wowza Denise, that's fantastic..amazing the difference speed makes..well done, you must be so chuffed X

On the first of Kay's challenges that I did I replaced one meal every day with soup made of mainly speed and the Lbs dropped off. I've found that unless I have some protein at every meal I'm starving by the next meal time, so nearly always add lentils. Here's my fave soup at the minute:
Carrots, BNS, onion, red pepper, 1/2 cup red lentils, tin tomatoes, 1/2tsp mustard powder, 1/2tsp ground ginger, 1/4 tsp cayenne (more if you like spice) 1/2tsp herbes de Provence (bay leaf or mixed herbs would do) sometimes I put in 1tsp garlic granules. I also sometimes put a sweet potato in. Fill up to first line of Soup maker with water & cook on chunky (28mins) remove bay leaf if using and pulse a couple of times. Filling, freezes and makes enough for 3 big bowls.

Hi, no I haven't. I write everything down on a piece of paper - the old fashioned way! ;-) If I left it for the computer I'd just miss things off and I'm finding it helpful to write everything down. xx
I managed a lb this week, but it went on instead of off... oh well
(well actually it was a lb on when I weighed first thing and then after work I'd lost it again but as I have a difficult week this week I'd rather stick with the lb on and hopefully that may help me go for a maintain rather than a gain this week - fingers crossed)
