[Elkie]

Gemsta I have a bone to pick with you! You have got me ADDICTED to option they are soooooooo yummy and totally cure my chocolate craving!!! LOVE THEM!!

 

[Gemsta]

Lol...I wouldn't be without my options, in fact just finished one The jars we're on offer at Morrisons last week 2 for £4.50 I think...not bad when there around £3 each. I just weigh out 11g more cost effective than the sachets

 

[Jellybean33]

Dont be too down on yourself hun…you might be pleasantly surprised tomorrow!

And keep reminding yourself how far you've already come! Xx

 

[kirsty_baird_26]

We tried the secret potatoes wow they were amazing

 

[Gemsta]

Ok so I was naughty yesterday!...Not in food terms but I took a sneaky peek on the scales and was fairly happy with what it said. Been back on this morning and there's virtually no difference to last weeks! I know I don't weigh in until tomorrow officially it's just got me all grumpy now..lol..Think * week is about to make an appearance too.

It's getting so hard now to get these losses. I was going to have another EESP day today, but now I'm thinking I might just stick 2 fingers up at it and have a EE....sod trying to be 'good' ie EESP.

know how you feel there its really hard when you have been really good and still that's not enough to loose anything!

keep at it though and like my oh said to me at least your not gaining

 

[Gemsta]

Yeah... I know. I think I'm getting myself into a bit of a tiz because our holiday is approaching and I'm just thinking I'd really like to have got to 4 stone lost by then. I should still be ok even if I only loose just the 1lb a week (which is just as well cos that's what I get most the time now...lol..)

Still, actual weigh in tomorrow so hopefully I have lost some come then. If not, I'm hoping it's just because of * week approaching

 

[kirsty_baird_26]

Dont stress i found i didnt loss as much if i did. Try shaking it up a bit dofferent things to eat etc and may see a difference? X

 

[Gemsta]

Yeah, I need to be less hard on myself. Got my new uniform for work this week (my old one was size 18 trousers which I had new middle of November last year, but were gaping about 4 inches from my side) my shirts were 22's and jacket was a 26! So I looked like I was going camping in my uniform as my branch manager pointed out to me the other week..lol.. Feel so much better in my new 'fitting one and people are really noticing at work now so that's nice

I think next week I'm just going back to doing EE as that will allow me to mix it up more than doing SP days, plus I think that way maybe if I do a SP week or 2 before holiday I may see a bit better result wise then

 

[kirsty_baird_26]

Thats lovely that people are noticing the difference and your new fitter work outfis better welldone you should b proud x

 

[TDQ]

That new uniform should boost your confidence. Good luck for your WI

 

[Gemsta]

Right Gem... sort it out! Yep..that's me talking to myself...lol.. So I've weighed in and have gained 1/2lb! I've gone back through my food for last week and yes apart from the Chinese and cider I've been good and even with those I'm still within my weekly syns. So I am putting it down to * week due any time. In short I have to, because what's the point in continuing otherwise. After when Ray comes home from shopping I'm going to get him to take some pics and then I'm going to make a collage of my first pics when I began until now so I can see how far I have come, hopefully this will spur me on again. Also I am going back to EE and find some new meals to try then hopefully next week I can 'loose' this weeks gain, regain my 3 1/2 stone award and get back on track. Sorry for the ramble, but it does help

Oh...and the scales are going in the car!! Bloody things!

Not seen that one....I saw the Popcorn one the other day at work I might pop in and get a few to try after as I need to get some more Quark too

 

[Jellybean33]

I like the popcorn one

See, 1/2 a pound isn't much at all! I think the photo idea is a great one, and if * week is to blame, you might find you have a good loss next week! Xx

 

[Gemsta]

I knew I'd seen someone say they'd had it..lol..

I will upload my pics later and yeah... I'm really hoping that its the case re next week

 

[Elkie]

Ummm popcorn one is yummy too! Doesn't taste like popcorn but has a lovely taste to it x

 

[Gemsta]

I popped into B&M to get some bits to occupy our niece for the weekend and got some choc toffee and choc vanilla options sachets 20p each!...was gutted as they had a cherry one ticket but no stock ...lol.. I'd have liked to try that one. I also got some Mikado (2 for £1) Buttery Frylight 99p a bottle and some boxes of Alpen Lights the Cherry Bakewell and Lemon Drizzle ones so looking forward to those for a change and some fizzy zero vimto....feeling re-inspired now
