Morning all Drum roll please!!! I've just had a sneaky wi (yes i know i shouldn't), but have lost 3lb since mondays wi!! Which means i've lost the 2lb i gained and another 1lb on top! Hurrah! Lets hope it keeps going in that direction before next mondays wi! Still really pleases me to know that it must have been water weight to have lost it that quickly which is a bit of a relief for me to know...

 

[Jim]

YAY!! :bliss: :bliss:

B. Coffee with cream n sweetner 0.5
Fry up
2 fried eggs 0
3 rashers bacon 0
150g sliced fried mushrooms 0.6

1.1 so far..

Got some chicken legs/thighs in the slow cooker with mushrooms n tandoori curry paste atm attempting to do some weird curry type thing for tea. I'll remove some of the water covering it about an hour or so before tea n add the lite coconut milk.. then will have it with cauli rice. Hopefully some carbs left for strawberries, raspberries n cream for pudding too. Well, that's the plan, not sure how the curry thing will turn out, it looks weird atm. Just lumps of chicken in water with mushrooms n curry paste! lol..

[British_Claire_84]

Thanks LM, not official wi result, that'll be on monday but still 3lb lost since this mon isn't bad going so just goes to prove most of it must have been water weight gained..

 

[Bad Jar]

Have you lost some of that 'podgy' feeling now Claire? I'm fairly sure that's the word you used last week?

 

[British_Claire_84]

Yes for sure Jar Feel much better, not totally back to normal podginess but getting there i feel. Such a relief to know now that it was water weight, it wasn't a nice feeling gaining for the first time since feb when i started.. hopefully mondays wi will be a good un

 

[Bad Jar]

we've all got our fingers crossed for you - Jim might even cross his plumpies (separate thread!)

 

[British_Claire_84]
