2015 Weight Loss Challenge

[upndown]

Yup...be worth it though so if I gain then I gain. Just finished baking 5 different sized tins of choc cake ready to start making the cake for daughter.

Going to try and behave a bit when having some in hopes it lessens the damage. Will try to make any eggs last as well and spread out into small portions to control gains.

What type of cake is ur daughter having - know ur good with cakes! xx

 

[CatA]

She asked for chocolate inside so baked 5 different sizes as will be making a castle for her

 

[CatA]

And I managed NOT to lick the spoon or bowl! lol

 

[upndown]

A choc castle cake sounds fab! hope u'll post a pic? U deserve a good loss for not licking the lefovers! xx

 

[CatA]

Will do. Her birthday is Thursday so will start decorating tomorrow/Tuesday.

 

[Autumn500]

Well done everyone lots of nice losses!

I'm going to try and maintain my weight for a while as I don't feel in the zone at all.hopefully if I maintain for a bit il be able to get back onto some kind of plan.i weighed this morning and I sts so it's working so far!

 

[CatA]

Good idea Autumn. So hard to stay on plan if the willpower has run off for the moment.

Daughter keeps asking for a Frozen cake for her birthday now. I was surprising her with a castle cake as she thought she was getting a plain round cake so now I have changed it slightly and will do it all ivory and blue, dusted with white and blue lustre dust and adding a couple of her frozen figures hehe

Got to start decorating tomorrow as can guarantee it will take too long if I leave til Weds

That sounds like a good plan - and you know it works now! Sooooo much better than frantic dieting leading to bingeing (which is how I'd earned my username!) xx

Grrrrrrr I am having such a rubbish day at work and it's only 9:30!

I generally get on with everyone I work with but find the finance director really difficult, it sometimes feels like she goes out of her way to make life difficult for me.

I'm sat at my desk and all I want to do is comfort eat cause feel all stressed and anxious.

How do people cope with these situations?

 

[upndown]

At last! I lost 4 pounds this week - don't know how as since I rejoined SW I've been sticking to the plan apart from WI day treats - anyway just goes to show that when we've been good we get our reward eventually! Good luck to those whi've still yet to weigh xx

Woop!

Also proves you can have a treat occasionally without it being damaging. I always have treats at weekend after weighing hehe

 

[Toujours]

These last four days have just been awful. Still going to the gym but can't stop eating fattening food for some reason. :cry:

:bighuglease don`t beat yourself up Tojours. It is not an easy thing we are all trying to do and as I am sure you know we have ups and downs. There is no rhyme or reason for what we do. From your stats it seems you have lost around half of what you want to lose.
Of course it is not enough, and we hate those eating days because it makes it worse. Just try and keep going, The gym is still a positive step.

Just know you are not alone. Pop in anytime. Take care and good l

Sorry ur struggling with ur director, she sounds like a difficult woman.

Like u sometimes I turn to food - other times I think about how hard I've worked to lose what I have - yet remind myself still have further to go and decide not to binge - I never know how I'm going to react but the more I lose it seems the less I want to spoil things!

Hope things are better for u 2moro.

OMG my feet hurt. 4 hours of cake decorating and daughters cake is ready except for frozen characters and candles which I will add on the day.

Wow that's fab - she's a lucky girl and she's going to be very pleased with it I'm sure! x

 

[Nanny Doreen]

Absolutely fantastic. Your little girl will be thrilled. Has she seen it or do you get a chance to hide it from her. Whatever you do she will love it. Well done, 4 hours WOW!

 

[CatA]

It's hidden in the kitchen with a tea towel in front so she can't see it. Nicked her Elsa and Olaf figures that were in here room (and washed as dusty! lol) and added those and candles now ready for morning. hehe
