Haha well there's certainly enough to experiment with then
Here's some ideas then since you don't like them:
Chicken,mushroom and broccoli bake?
Chicken dumplings?
Chicken soufflé?
No idea if they would work out ok but worth a try

Day 23 and also paydayyyyyy!!! Another cheeky trip to the Trafford Centre is on the cards I think!

Definitely going ahead with getting my room sorted next weekend, sorted a plasterer so may as well just buy all the stuff and crack on - I can't stand the way it is at the moment and I'm massively impatient.

Almost blew my shaker up this morning cleaning it with boiling water - ended up scolding my hand... Oops.

Hope everyone has a fabulous day... God, I'm in such a good mood!!

I can't believe how bloody well you're doing!! I hope I'm seeing results like yours in the next week, I like that you're ahead of me it gives me more motivation to see what kind of results I could be getting, I can't wait to get some new clothes once I'm at my target :) x

Aww thanks hunny! I forgot to take photos as I've decided the best time to do so will probably be in the morning but I will definitely put some up asap - I need to see the difference for myself! The last "before" photos I tool was at 13st10 and can already see just in the mirror there is a difference. I like being a motivation! It motivates me to carry on because I feel like I'm not just letting myself down if I quit. Not that I feel like quitting! I wake up happier every day and food barely crosses my mind, don't think I've felt like that about food since before I was eating what I wanted, when I wanted!

Wonder how long it's gonna be before I'm a size 12?!! 2 weeks is probably a little unrealistic but I'm hoping to have a flatter tummy by then. I WILL look good in my Celeb Boutique dress!!

I haven't taken any pictures yet,I really should!

I don't have any full body pictures in about 2years!! I refuse to let people take pictures below the shoulders, which is sad cos I don't have any pictures of me and my son except a few head shots, by his first birthday I want LOTS of photos of us both :)

Aww that's such a shame but at least you'll have plenty of full length ones soon enough xx
 
Omg I can't believe how quickly the snow is coming down. I wish it'd just Pee off!! So much for my second trip to The Trafford Centre this week! My money is screaming at me to spend it!! Supposed to be out tomorrow too but if it carries on like this I don't think I'll bother. Doesn't really matter anyway seeing as I'm working the weekend AGAIN!! Helps me stay on track though I suppose so its not all bad. As long as its gone before the 8th. Pleeeeeease be gone by the 8th!!

Hows everyone doing today?

xx
 
Urgh I hate going out in snow, it's all cleared up in Yorkshire now, dunno if it's snowing in Liverpool (kinda glad to be at my mums if it is)

Feeling really good today, think I'm gonna start having 2shakes a day now as I just don't feel hungry anymore and then I can get some on eBay to make things cheaper.
Did another workout today and that put me in such a good mood,my body is really changing now :D

Well I'm in Manchester so it probably is. It's supposed to be all over by tonight. Eurgh!!

Didnt realise you could get them from eBay. I might have a look but doubt they'd do just strawberry! I'm having at least 2 shakes a day because its easier when Im in work. Some days I'll have 3. Makes it so much easier I think!

Youre doing so well with all the exercising too!! You'll be a super yummy mummy soon!!

That is quite cheap but don't know how I'd feel about getting my monthly food from eBay. I'll probably just stick to slim and save and know I'm safe haha.

Just made the tomato crisps again, didn't burn them this time. Turned out really nice!!

So I've just spent £375 without leaving the house. Job well done if you ask me. I got a bed, a matress, a chest of drawers, a bedside table, a lamp, a shoe rack, a clothes rail (my bedroom is tiny) and loads of storage boxes. Now I just need to get stripping the wallpaper, think I'm gonna do that tomorrow though!

Day 23 is done! Just sat with no TV now because the sky has gone thanks to the snow. It's absolutely horrendous up this end!! It's coming down so thick and no signs of stopping. Grrrrrrr xx
 
Has anybody thought of what diet they will switch to for maintaining? I've never dieted before, I decided to take what I thought was the easy route with a VLCD. I know it's still a whole off for me yet but I'm planning on getting to my goal size using slim and save then maintaining using a different diet until it just becomes natural for me to eat that way.

I get confused with all the talk of syns and points and hexes and multicoloured days, having a sachet to add water to is soooo much easier in my opinion but obviously I can't do that for life!!

Any suggestions?

xx
 
I've been thinking the same, I'm gonna maybe do a calorie controlled slimming world (myself,no going to the groups) make sure portions are no bigger than my fist. I think that's the downfall of slimming world is that you get 'free foods' so people just think 'I'll have as much of that as I want' but it all contains calories, and I'm gonna make sure I keep to low carbs. I'm also gonna continue to use 'my fitness pal' and keep active and make sure I burn all the calories I've eaten, I can have a treat BUT I have to burn it off! And I'm gonna gradually increase my calories but mostly try and stick to 1200.
I'm kind of scared going it alone though :/ like you said it's so easy just adding water to a sachet and I like the strictness of S&S, you know exactly where you are then don't you?!
