Thats a great idea lo chan. When does the next one run to?
 
Ideas, girls, please. I have to take a savory dish for taster week for Miss slinky next week.
 
i'd make some veggie pakoras....but i've been craving them lately...damn...i didnt get any nat.yoghurt when i was in asda.... :(

i'm not bothered particularly whether we have a week off or if we go straight to it. Christmas is just another day for me- just inconvenient that there's no decent telly, so i'll be walking a lot and maybe doing wii fit...as well as moping, like i do every christmas.

I think the next one is until Valentines (another "normal day", being forever single! lol)
 
Ugg my get up and go has gone again :( just had a huge toastie...and had an extra piece of bread...synned it of course. no SF though.....i should cut up some fruit and have it with a yoghurt or something...but arsed, cannot be :(
 
yey i have lost a pound :)

Well done hun, :woohoo: go you xxxxx

Thanks-don't think I'll hit my Christmas target tho, as still got 17.5lbs to go!! Thats 3lbs a week, which altho achievable, might be too much pressure! Will see how I get on xxx

Didn't say you had to reach it by Christmas just that you'd soon reach it, really don't want to put ANY pressure on you, you've had way too much of that the last few months, I just know this is the way forward for you sweetie and I am gonna be beside you all the way :hug99: xxxxxxxxxxxx

Well done lollypop :D

I'm going to up my speed food this week and have more fruit and veg.

It's a really dreary day here in Easy Anglia, foggy and damp. I'm having a day of housework and cooking and staying in the warm.

Busy weekend ahead as kids have their biggest payout of the year in the morning £20 each to do all their Christmas shopping so we are off into town and have roped in some help so we all have a child each. More decorating in dining room on Sat and Sun will be church, lunch at MIL ( should be a roast so will just leave the tato's) and swimming so thats the weekend covered.

What are you all up to?

Happy slimming :wavey:

Hey Lucia, A damp dreary day here in London too, I too am spending the day in the warm cooking, making a huge batch of Carrot and Coriander Soup as we speak, can't wait lol
Tomorrow, I am shopping with my youngest while hubby has the grandkids and then if it stays dry off to the local aquadrome with them on Sunday.
Have a lovely day and fabulous weekend hun :hug99: xxxx

Grr I'm so bad at keeping up with the team thread - sorry peoples :sigh:

Well done on all the losses everyone - we all seem to be on a roll now. I'm all excited for christmas and the final challenge WI :D

Are we having a week off between xmas and new year before starting the next one?

Am I the only one who doesn't want a week off :giggle: I just can't bear carrying this weight about anymore, want it off NOW!!! :D please, pretty please :D xxxx

Lisa... Welcome back and you have a pic!! :)

Can't wait to hear all about your hols!! Xxx
 
Hi Curvys,

Another flying visit from me...

I just back from a mammoth 9hr Christmas Shopping day!! (Think of all the Body Magic!!) I can hardly walk, after being on my feet for 9hrs!! But all my shopping is done!! :)

I am due to weigh tomorrow and I know it will be a gain, after week 1 of my hols!! But I will take it on the chin.. I still have another week to go!!

I am off to London tomorrow... Soooo Excited!!

I think the Christmas Challenge should end on the 25th & the new one start on the 1st of Jan. I will still be weighing in between but that way it leaves the week free for people to choose what they would like to do :)

Catch up with you all soon... Promise xxxxx
 
Welcome back Lisa hope u had a fab time. And well done on all the losses this week.

I've been quiet again I know and managed to gain 2 and a half pounds again this week eeeek :( but have been good so far this week and the scales are already showing a loss altho I know it's disastrous to weigh in half way through the week! :)

As for the challenge I agree it should end xmas eve/day and then 1st jan back, I like others will be still weighing in but I cant commit to being 100% being bday and Xmas time!

I unfortunately hopped on my scales before. It was SO stupid as I'm full of food, constipated, wearing heavy , socks etc etc etc but it wasn't good!

Cinta - I loved Orlando but glad to be home - even though I have a cold!
Have fun shopping and also in London x

Welcome back Lisa, love the picture, so nice to "meet" you properly xxxx
 
Firstly *waves to Lisa* - wow, you have a human face! I thought you were a cartoon :8855:Nice to see the real you :)

Re the week 'off' at xmas, I didn't mean I was gonna be off plan all week just thought it might be less stressful for those of us who may end up with a christmas gain not to have to start a new challenge with it hanging over our heads? I'm happy to go with the majority vote o'course ;)

Kally I think we decided to cap the team at 20 but then invite new people in when we finish the xmas challenge (which is on up to 24th dec) if people dropped out - so you could join us for the Valentines one? Would be nice to have you on board :D

How was the Trafford Centre Sugar? Don't think I'll dare go back there now until we're well into January lol It's not somewhere I'd find worth braving heaving crowds for :p When are you popping in to Manchester? I meant to check if the xmas markets are open yet, the lights went on on thursday night I think...

Oooh my phantom tickets for feb turned up today in the post - really looking forward to your review of the show (please PLEASE post one :D). S0ds law though - they're doing a run of it at the palace theatre in April/May now... spose could go to that if there are repeat performance cravings lol Hope you have a brilliant weekend in London xxx

Oof I'm chattering away, it's nice to feel cheerful though :) Think I should do okay at WI tom'ow too... 2lbs would get me the 3.5st shiny, 3lbs would get me to the half century... I can dream lol
