Day 1 tomorrow

[TINKERBELLA]

No I haven't tried basa?? What's it like?? I did have some salmon for dinner tonight it was a smaller piece than the SS+ allowance (wrapped it up in tinfoil with dill and a tiny bit of curry powder) and baked it in the oven then served with broccoli and cauli and it was really yummy!! It's just nice to have some variation!!

Ooh a wedding breakfast that's a tricky one - will prob be best to find out what's on the menu before hand - so you can at least prepare??? What are u expecting it to be??


Yep lol there is definitely a need for a cheaper cdc in this area!! xx

Basa is also called river cobbler it's. Lovely delicate bone free white fish I just prefer it to all over white fish now. Schwartz do a shake out for fish but I'm guessing it's salty that's lovely on it too.
Mmm no idea as is a Jewish wedding?? I will prob nibble and pass bits to jay and decline dessert or pass that to jay lol.
I need to crack things like weddings and conferences etc as I never get back on the wagon. Went away in feb and took me until April 18th to restart I basically had 2 whole months off x

 

[TINKERBELLA]

Oooh will have to try that thanks Autumn!!!

I think it gets harder to restart the closer you get to goal aswell!!! Because if ur anything like me u start to think oooh I like myself n I've done so well I deserve this ..... Followed by I can always start tomorrow!!


Whereas I think the more occasions you succeed at - you start to think oooh I can do this is n it becomes really empowering!!
I've know idea what Jewish cuisine is like -- but hopefully jay will get his fill lol n u can come on here n report to us about how successful u have been! xx

I know he said 'bloody hell autumn that's another 10k run I will need to do' haha he's funny. He came smelling of delish foods again tonight the monkey and made him brush his teeth ASAP haha. I sound so mad don't I at times lol
I totally get u. It's like when u know your coming off for a holiday etc u stop a few days earlier and earlier and before you know it you've regained 6lb before you've even gone!!!! X

morning Ladies! How are you both doing today

Well i am aching top to toe which is super! I forgot i had muscles! lol Weigh in is at 7pm (have i said before how much i hate evening weigh in's....repeatedly i think!). Its also TOTM which is crap as i've not had a period for 6 months (i have the marina coil so never have totm) so i'm not even holding my breath for 3lbs which sucks.

I used to be a size 22 back in 2006....and used to dream of being a size 14. I never thought cambridge in 2009 would take me so far as a 10 but i miss those days of hip bones and wearing anything i wanted!

i warn you now....when i was a size 22, my feet were a size 7. They became a 6 when i lost all the weight in 2009 and now, i'm a 5.5, so be prepared to have to part with the shoes

 

[Autumn76]

Hahaha I went up to an 8 buy am down to a 6.5 I won't shrink anymore as my feet are 6 to 6.5 in length it was all the width fat that has gone tho.
An tired today and it's raining so bad I wanted to stay jn bed x

 

[TINKERBELLA]

Morning ladies!!

I have officially become some kind of OCD cleaner!! I've been up since 6am washing the carpets!!!

Can't wait for my weigh in tomorrow (it'll be just under a week)!!

Just need to work out what I want this week n let my cdc know!! Lol it's gonna be exciting to have a bit of change!!

Have a good day!! xx

 

[LizzRob]

Autumn, i feel your pain! I felt the same this morning. Plus my moron assistant (he's useless) is in today and he always irritates me!

haha i love OCD on this diet! I have it anyway but CD extra energy makes me run round like a demented idiot!

I have weigh in tonight BOOO!

Morning Ladies

Hope you are all ok. Encountered my first bit of negativity today, from someone on Twitter. Should have know better really, and kept my fingers off the keyboard. Said person, who is a friend of my husbands, is now messaging him to ask my Husband to persuade me to come off the 'fad' diet. Cheeky and rude LOL xx

 

[LizzRob]

Haha head held high, keys off keyboard and know that the results will show her.

Amazing how these people feel they have a right to comment on what you're 'eating' all of a sudden. You wouldn't publicly pick holes in what she's eating....although now I would lol

Current loss: 16lbs and 10.5 inches

 

[Hothmog]

Surprisingly it was a 'he'. He lost a lot of weight by 'good eating and exercise, the old fashioned way' apparently. Meh I'm totally happy with what I'm doing and totally happy with the results so far xx

Just got out of meeting and catching up. How rude. If he'd tried it and been sick or had something bad go wrong you could understand him saying don't do it (like my friend who got gout) but he's literally no right. I hate these people who lose weight and think they know everything. Hope I don't become one of them.
I saw a patient last week who has a Bmi of 40 and can't conceive I've been seeing her for quite a whole and had to talk again about weight loss and how losing 10% can increase your fertility etc and she must have been looking at me thinking 'you can talk yourself' so hopefully my patients may take me more seriously now too lol. X

This is one of my main motivating factors to be honest. I always feel such a hypocrite trying to give lifestyle advice that includes diet and exercise, and here I am overweight and probably crushing their legs under the blanket I just laughed it off to be honest, and my Husband replied to his friends saying "My wife is of sound mind and stubborn. She does wants she wants to" and left it at that. It's a bit of a taboo subject I think swapping out food, for meal replacement. Much like expressing a preference for a little girl when you've had 4 boys LOL! x

Haha yes I get you.
What department do you nurse in? I have to say a few old skool midwives have pulled their face at me saying I was doing cd but the rest have been supportive and my junior doctors just think I'm generally mad anyway lol so nothing surprises them xx

 

[LizzRob]

I tend to tell most people b0ll0x when they comment negatively. What suits my mate who doesn't work as her fella earns 130k a year and can hit the gym twice a day isn't going to suit me, single working 'career' mom! Thankfully she's one of the few that's super supportive of me lol

Let people talk and whinge at you, meanwhile you're burning fat! You're welcome lol

Current loss: 16lbs and 10.5 inches
