Day 1 tomorrow

[Tiggemma]

I'm 'happy' with the gains and know it'll go quickly!

It looks lovely where you are Lizz! And you're looking great!

Autumn I hope you're ok?

Got to say I am happy being home with no external pressures on food etc it's much better being 100% in control.

Hope you're doing ok too Tinks.

Xxx

I'm good Tigg sitting here glugging my water -- one more product to go and that's me done for today. It's a such a relief to be back on 100% I just find it so much easier being on plan!!!
I love the motivation and well being that comes with it aswell!! xx

 

[Ian1975]

Evening all. Football tonight, enjoyed with salad, chicken and a runny egg. Was bliss

How's everyone?

Lizz. Lovely photo. You're looking great. It looks like you've no clothes on - I might blush!!!

 

[Tiggemma]

So I self weighed yesterday before my official weigh in. My self weigh this morning already shows 1.5 lbs down!

Footy will be our staple for the next few weeks.

Porridge and water for breakfast. Yum.

Feeling spritely this morning! Hope you're all doing well amigos!

 

[LizzRob]

Finding it hard to get reception here. Tried to update off my bb and that was a fail. I've just found a spot on the beach and I'm half way through my run. It didn't take as much time as I thought so I'm catching my breath and doing the return leg lol

I'm going into town later so I'll read properly then! Much love amigos xx

Current loss: 28lbs and 21inches

 

[Autumn76]

On my way home shortly so no signal for me until I get home speak to you all this evening xx

 

[Tiggemma]

Safe journey autumn and enjoy your run Lizz!

 

[LizzRob]

Hey ladies (and Ian), I've taken up residence in a costa in Lowestoft so I have signal at last.

The run was hard work and I've been a bit dizzy since but I think that's just my body resisting cardio. Another run tomorrow but as I'll have had more food in my belly I'm hoping it's better afterwards.

I've just been I to new look and got 2 items in size 10 which is brave but sod it! Oh, and for the first time in years I'm wearing a dress without tights or something covering my legs. I hate my legs so this is quite an achievement although my knees still talk when I walk lol

I'm trying not to worry too much about weigh in Tuesday. I've been 100% so I should be ok but you know me!

Autumn safe journey back!

Tigg/tink/Ian, how are you all getting on? Xx

[Ian1975]

I've had a long, crappy week. Really crappy.

But stuck to the routine (since the weekend). I'm light on carbs yet but having loads of greens, salad, chicken and the odd egg. And it's tasty. Really tasty!

Last night I made (again) salad, grilled chicken and sunny side egg (spray oil only). Burst the egg, all through chicken & salad! It was great.

That said. I could really go Chinese

Well done for getting through the week on plan despite the crap! I always find that a massive off scale achievement because we all emotionally eat.

The food looks lush!!!! I fancy an egg but I'm not buying 6 just for this weekend lol back on SS for me on Sunday

Current loss: 28lbs and 21inches

 

[Tiggemma]

I'm doing ok back on plan. Hoping the lbs will drop off quickly. Planning another run in the am too. Figure I'll run the excess carbs out of my system!

It's warm here in the office and I am struggling.

Well done with the crappy week but keeping going Ian. That's the hardest time and you didn't give up, that a massive thumbs up.

Lizz I'm sure you have lovely legs. I had an op in 2006 and my legs are permanently weirdly lumpy but over time I've decided that if it's too hot for tights I'm not wearing them. You don't like me legs well then don't look!

 

[LizzRob]

Sounds like a rotten day to be cooped up in an office hun! But glad you're doing ok back on plan. That's yhe hard bit isn't it. And you're doing superb!

They really are dreadful, and I have a scar on my upper body from a scald at 18 months old so I'm a walking disaster zone but sod it! It's too hot to be precious lol

There are clouds. This hurts me lol xx

Current loss: 28lbs and 21inches

 

[Tiggemma]

We all have bits that aren't great but they're always worse to us than to anyone else though. Nobody sees my scars anymore until I point them out.

Hope you've had a fab day out there Lizz! It's far too hot in this office. I've opened all the windows but it's still too hot. Oh well I made jelly for when I get home. I missed my jelly in Italy (I think I replaced the liquid content with wine!).

One more hour of work to go then it's the weekend. So far today I have had three products and I'm having chicken salad for my tea tonight. I've not got the low carb flu yet but starting to feel sleepy already. Could be the diet could be the hot weather. No idea. Still I shall embrace it and snooze when I get home!

 

[Ian1975]

Folks, if it's any consolation, I don't have the legs for tights not skirts.

Now, kilts. I do a kilt not badly at all

 

[Tiggemma]

Well Ian next time you wear one you'll have to show us all your legs! I'm sure my lumpy legs have been on here already!!!

 

[Ian1975]

Dinner. Same as last night, with a bit of pastrami instead of chicken. The egg just makes it. Big time. I may have fallen in love with taste again

 

[TINKERBELLA]

Evening all,

Lizz and Tigg you are both pretty ladies -- don't forget that!! We all have 'imperfections' but you should be proud of yourself you are both incredibly strong !!

Ian i feel the need to try your egg on a salad!! I can do that on SS+ can't i? If I have half the amount of chicken and one egg??

Are you feeling better now Tigg - did you have a snooze??

Lizz I'm loving the shopping!! I've been 'shopping' today for car insurance -- not fun!!!!! Although I did buy a dress today aswell ;-)


Autumn -- where are you??? Hope you got home safe and are feeling better!! xx

 

[TINKERBELLA]

Just a little update -- have just done a ketostix and this Tinks is definitely in ketosis!! Wooohoooo xx

 

[Tiggemma]

Yay Tinks! Getting back into ketosis is hard but feels great. Hope I'm there soon!

I'm tired and have been snoozy since I got home but hubby is grumpy (blaming me for a set of earphones that have been lost somewhere between here and florence!) so just off to bed now. Hoping for a long lie in!

I have come to terms with lumpy legs, I struggled to walk for any distance pre op now me and my lumpy legs can walk anywhere! The lumps are there but I really think if they bother you (and they do bother some people as they move around) then tough, they stopped bothering me years ago. I've much better things to worry about!
