Wow everyone looks amazing in their pics!


I am not sure I really have many of possibly any pics from when I was at my biggest, I tended to avoid the camera.

Well on my week of trying the 5:2 fast diet thing I lost 1lb - not a miraculous loss like many people get on their first week of it but of course a lot of them eat really unhealthily before starting it. I had a lot of yummy things at the world buffet and also had a fair few yummy treats on other up days like kitkat chunkys etc so pleased with that result.

The plan was to try it for another week to see how it goes (as since I had only done 2 of the low cal days it doesn't really feel like I gave it much if a trial). The plan was also to eat more normally on the up days this week, less extravagant treats! However I haven't felt well for the past few days and been craving utter crap food.

Last night I gave into Chinese takeaway (and not a healthy choice fried rice, chips and satay sauce mmm) and also some iced donuts. And a galaxy ripple lol!

And today I met up with old friends for tea, cake and a cocktail. Though this was planned so that's fine.

Shall still attempt my 2 500cal days but really not expecting a loss again this week :-/ at the end of the week will decide if I will continue on 5:2 or go back to simply filling as I know I can lose on that too. X

well done on the loss

yeah I think its a good idea to stick with it, you never know you may still loose with another 2 500cal days, good luck. I suppose its good to have the choice of the two plans depending on what you have planned for the week.

Well done on the loss laura. Im curious to know whether you weighed on fast or normal day as that will probably effect it

 

[icklerockchick]

I had my fast days on Sunday and Wednesday and weighed on the Friday. Didn't want to have a fast day too close to weigh in as would probably give an artificially low result then. X

Can't believe it, everywhere was soaking wet after rain all day, but we actually have snow settling now! It's crazy, don't think we'll have it bad enough to close any schools, but still snow I love it, (hate it when it gets icy but love the snow)

I am looking forward to Spring/Summer though

[kim63]

Have just had a very slobby weekend, mostly trying to get over my hangover lol! So had a few naughty foods on Saturday, but back on it yesterday. Im so glad I drink vary rarely now, as Im too much of a lightweight! Enjoyed going out for the evening, but not the after effects lol!

Loving your pics Nikki, just think that belly is full of little arms & legs! You're looking lovely & slim with it as well.

 

[donna88]

I don't feel like I've lost again this week I hope its just in my head as I really have stuck at it.... hate my body at times, I suppose it could be the running but hope it starts shifting soon, as happy as I am with myself at the moment I'd be happier if I could get where I want to be, I know its silly as noone else see's that number on the scales but I want to see it and I also wonder if a couple of extra pounds off would make my running easier.

Dreading when I finally decide to have a drink again Kim, haven't had one since Jan 1st, think I might have to have one on mothers day after my half marathon.... my mum wouldn't be impressed if I didn't.... but will keep it at just the one if its wine or two or three if its spirits. Also loads of water to go with it.


Anyway I best shoot off as I'm due at work don't want to be late

I had a slobby weekend also Kim. We went out for our vday dinner on sat. Where we going to a restaurant that we have never heard of before and their website didn't give much info. We had no choice because it was a groupon voucher I received as an Xmas pressie so it needed used.

Lol well when we walked in to the restaurant it was an all u can eat 3 course Buffett. Lol. So I had all the Chinese u could ask for, then shredded duck in pancakes then sushi. Oh followed by dessert lol

Oh and washed down with vodkas and diet lol
I tried to make up for it by eating really healthy on sun. Which I was doing until me and the bf had a huge fight and I was breaking up with him a d for over three hours we tried to sort it out. And when we eventually sorted it out he went and got us a DVD and made nachos. Lol so yea I had nachos.

To be fair tho I did make my own salsa which was free end then just the warm cheese was hexa. Lol but I'm still 1(1/4) lb up from fri. Oh well I enjoyed my weekend

Well, it was worth it then lol! Glad you sorted it all out with your BF tho & a make-up meal doesn't count lol! We all need to have days where we just eat/ drink what we want, as long as it doesn't happen all the time & we lose the plot completely!

At least you enjoyed it, glad you sorted everything out, I agree with Kim make-up meals don't count I love nacho's could eat a massive pile of them right now (well done for making your own salsa and weighing cheese though, that's fab) we're having frajita's tonight as we bought some wraps cheap yesterday, going to use half the pack so two each and freeze the other half, 13 syns for my tea which is unusual for me but having a green day and using quorn beef so will have two HEB to snack on in the evening.

.haha your telling me, i had a right kick in the ribs yesterday and then rubbed it and this little foot just poke out at my hand!

Awww I miss that.... although wouldn't have said it at the time. My little one used to stick his elbow in my ribs, the midwife taught me to get down on all fours and push him away haha, once I'd got used to being quite rough with my bump to do it I was okay, except when I had to do it in the office (used to go to the toilet so noone saw lol)

me and boyfriend had an interesting conversation on Sunday, he's mentioned having another one a few times recently... (I think I've mentioned before my little one isn't his) we've been together just over 3 years now, but def want marriage to be the next step... anyway in tesco's he said something about when we have another one and I just asked did he def want another one then.... we both admitted that actually, we're not too bothered, I don't know if that's just that we don't want one right now or that we don't want one at all. We both said our main reason at the moment for having one would be for little one and obviously I'd have one if he def wanted one as I don't agree with expecting him to bring up my little one and not letting him have one of his own if he wanted one...

It feels a bit weird, I always thought we both really wanted more kids, I wanted at least 3, but I'm just so happy as we are I don't care if we have more or not, which I suppose is a good thing, was just weird talking about it... if we are going to have another one we should probably do it in the next few years as little one is getting older as well, if we decide we do want one I don't want to leave it too late, but I do def want those rings on my fingers first and I do think it would be nice to be married for a while first as well. Sorry random to just come out and say I know, I suppose I'm glad we're on the same page...

well ladies considering star week arrived i did considerably well at weekend. not counting my invisible wine in my syn allowance i have syns left but not many ha...how is that for selective memory lol have come to the conclusion that the food etc i eat is the same as when i am not on plan...though i wouldn't think anything of mixing meat and carbs BUT clearly it is my syns that are way up. this will be my third week where i have went over syns so clearly i need sw to try to reign it in. still working on getting rid of nighttime treats though.
all in all still feel good though...just need tighten up the syns
glad you all had good weekend and yes wine is devil juice

ah we have discussed this before donna. think its pretty much personal choice but no right or wrong answer. it is hard. i always struggle with the only child topic but think now i am content with my decision of one. we are lucky to be blessed with one and quite simply we couldn't give two kids the life we want one kid to have. we pay just under 500 for child care and its a struggle plus i am not getting any younger lol thought i was maybe pg recently and i was worried which sort of answered a lot of my questions/doubts. i do worry little one is missing out but not all sibling get along plus that couldn't be my reason for trying for second baby. plus i am so blinking tired lol
