Helen's quest for good health!

Have you tried the one where you put your postcode in? It scans into my house and my car, love it, wasn't sure at first as it says "Don't fly. Support Team GB", I didn't understand why an advert for an airline says don't fly but apparently the adverts outside of the UK (and possibly Scotland etc) say to Fly... I think I still prefer the two previous ones.

No I haven't tried that one, will have to have a look for it.

The one I like is to The Clash's "London Calling"

Did you try the above advert online? It's really great seeing your house on it x
 
Haven't been on for a couple of days so I thought I'd update, didn't get to weigh in as was at Legoland, it was lovely but thankfully we used our Tesco vouchers to get in as it would have cost £44 per person to get in! Unreal!

Today we've got some friends coming around for a BBQ, at this rate it'll be an indoor BBQ! Really looking forward to it.. Some of the food is going to be SW and rather than buy pre done stuff I am making everything from scratch, has worked out cheaper as well.

On the above note re SW, I'm sure you've guessed I'm not really following it, I bought the Slimpods about 3 weeks ago and have been eating what my body has felt like rather than following a plan and have really enjoyed it, I have up and down days but as Jackie said I must expect blips, eg. yesterday I ate some chocolate but in general I have been eating far less than normal, I almost feel "free" not having to write down what I'm eating but looking back some days I've just been automatically following SW.. Other days not at all! I was contemplating trying to follow the plan as well as listen to the pods but the last couple of weeks I have lost weight so maybe I'll stick with what I'm doing and then if it stops think about it then.

I have definitely found I am exercising more than ever and I'm really enjoying it.

Sorry it's taken me so long to admit that I'm doing the Slimpods but I was nervous of admitting it to anyone for some reason, the only people that knew (before putting it on here!) were Mark and Jackie, don't think that Mark totally understands but he has been shocked when I've left food on my plate! Jackie has been brilliant and so supportive.

Here's wishing everyone a great weekend x
 
Silly girl... We all would support you no matter what you chose to do, whatever works for you honey... I have often thought of trying something new but I guess its down to Kev really as he does the cooking and he has SW down to an art form recipe wise so I leave him to it...x Sending hugs and support... Chelle xx

That's really nice to hear, thank you. In fact our meals have mainly been SW as I like them I just haven't been counting syns or HE's and if I did I know I'm having more HEB's then I should due cereal which I never used to have and bread but enjoying it so far x
 
Hi Helen, I'll be another one to admit that I have been doing pods for the last 5 or so months but staying with SW at the same
Time as I tried giving myself free rein but it worked against me lol My pods are more about sorting out my inner demons and getting my head in the right place AGAIN!! Whatever you decide to do we will all be here for you xx

Hey you, I think I might be going the same way.. Too much free reign! But I am persevering for now as its certainly made me think about things.

You're doing so well on your weight loss at the moment, I needed to do something to help me since my holiday and putting that 11lb on, I'm back in the 14's but only just.. Need to get into those 13's like you but to be honest I'm more concerned about my size than my weight as Jackie's proved the weight doesn't always shift.. We can do this together x

Oh yes we can, like I've said before we will just take a bit longer than others to get there!!
 
£44 per person....total rip off that Helen
Thank heaven for vouchers we used ours last year
at Thorpe park...

Have fun at the BBQ later
and we are behind you 100% whatever you choose diet wise
 
Free reign = I was like this to start with :) I describe it as abit like a kid in a sweet shop. Oooo I can have this, oooo this isn't banned, I allowed that to happen. It then after a few weeks settled and I didn't want it anymore. Now I eat healthy 99% of the time, eat when hungry, stop when full but its been a long process but one I feel has been worth while. Also the exercising more helps to limit the damage and make you feel good about you :D

Sorry for hasty reply should be doing other things whoops.com :giggle: xxxxxx
 
Silly really as those pods are everywhere! Well done so far though :D

My chill pods are fab as I'm a total stresshead. I'm sticking to SW for the 'diet' side of thing (for now) ooh and I have the fitness one which I really should listen to more often cos I'm SOOOO lazy when it comes to exercise!

Isn't Jackie fab! :)

Absolute rip off, don't know what we'd do without our vouchers.

I'm sure we'll have fun, think we'll put a little gazebo up so the boys can cook under that and us girls can flit in and out! X

You truly are my inspiration which is why I keep on going, it's only been 3 weeks but I am listening to all three every night still, naturally slim people aren't good all the time so need to understand that sometimes I can have naughty stuff I just need to eat healthily most of the time. Haven't done any exercise today though and missing it.. Weird lol! X

Jackie is fab, she needs to get paid for all the support she gives us.. Or be on commission! Definitely listen to the exercise one, you can get back to your 30 day shred then.. When you've got room to move around the boxes x
