Loved the topping up explanation too, but sooo right eh!

Good luck to continue having a good few days before WI chick xx
 
OMG I am a serial "topper upper"!! Never had the right words to describe it before!! Cheers Jan :)
 
Well didn't quite make it through last night/this morning perfectly but didn't have anything I shouldn't in work and at mum's only (!) had a teaspoon of hot chocolate powder (don't tell me you've never done it!;)), 2 teaspoons of peanut butter and a small banana.

Breakie when I got home was 2 weetabix, blue and raspberries, splenda & skimmed milk.

Tea - John had a chippy tea so i had a little bit of the batter off the end of his fish ;) then later on I had a wrap with turkey ham, salad & el salad cream

Strawberry cornetto (140cals)

work - cottage cheese salad with a piece of burgens s&l & 2 boiled eggs.

We've actually booked for the Maldives in march now - DEFFO need to lose before then! It's all inclusive!! ;) xx

 
You probably think i should try harder but can't resist showing you a few photos of where we're going ....

.... one of these water villas

LOL! :giggle: ... All we need now is the weather!!!:fingerscrossed: I'll go away and shut up about it now .... well for a couple of months anyway :) xx
 
That place really does look idyllic Jan, you will certainly enjoy your time doing the things you love, and John into the bargain gets his diving.

A definite incentive chick.
 
Well it's John's holiday for the diving part of it in particular. I'm only going to keep him company - I'm such a trouper .. :sigh: .. I can take one for the girls when I have to! ;) :eek:

And YES! IT will be an incentive after Christmas - if i haven't managed to get my head around it before then! I'm very lucky ... and John's very generous! :D xx
 
Lovely incentive to stay on track, Jan. you have loads of time to lose those few pounds healthily and keep em off! Well done on the last few positive days.
 
A teaspoon of hot chic powder? I swear to u I've never done that although now I'm tempted to try it ... Lol

So jealous of your holiday! When in match are u going? It looks stunning!!!! That certainly will be an incentive for u after Xmas.

Have u ever been all inc before?xx
 
:giggle: ... 'hot chic powder'?? :giggle:

I'll batter you! I'm in work and can't stop giggling :8855: ... I wish you COULD get hot chic powder - it'd sell like hot cakes!! LOL!!

We go on March 11th for 12 nights. We haven't been all inclusive before but there's no alternative there. I'm a bit scared of it because of the 'I've paid for it so I'm having it' ridiculous mentality! AND because I know that as well as 3 meals (incidentally with the water villas we have the option of breakfast in bed ;)) ... they have coffee and sandwiches in the afternoon :eek: - I think I'd better get down to 8.5st before we go ;) .. It's not even as though we can go for long walks as the Atol (island) is only about 300x100 yards or something silly(and FAB) like that. Ah well it's once in a lifetime - I'm sure I'll cope ;) xx

Sunday 13th November

Mum's - 3 teaspoons peanut butter & a bit of philli light (I wish she wouldn't buy peanut butter!! :eek:)

Breakie - 2 weetabix, blue & raspberries, splenda & skimmed milk.

Bed

Tea - Pork shoulder steak, butternut squash & sprouts with el salad cream

Strawberry cornetto

Work - wrap with el salad cream, turkey ham & salad, 2 boiled eggs.

I can't believe you've never had a spoonful of hot choc powder Tan - it's really nice - the cadbury's stuff, not highlights or any of those you make with water ... they're a bit yuck dry. All I'd say if you do try it be careful not to inhale as you put it in your mouth!! I've done that and nearly choked :eek: ;) xx
 
Hahhaa that's what I get for having fat thumbs with a touch screen keypad and one that automatically changes words it doesnt recognise! Obvs I meant hot choc powder! :giggle:

You'll love all inc if the foods nice. And tbh you won't eat as much as u think u will. You'll be careful of it. I've been on 3 all inc now and all times I've defo not eaten as much as I thought I would, especially the last one where I actually lost weight. Youll know its there all day so wont need to rush for any meal etc and If anything it'll be the alcohol you'll be indulging in more ;)

Aww 11th march, you'll be there when my friend is but not the same island! Xx
 
I knew what you meant ;)

I hope you're right about the AL! xx
 
Food good again today Jan, keep it up hun.

March 12th will soon be here, the holiday really does sound fab, something completely different.

No (chic) powder today then ;):D;) I used to do that with cocoa powder when I was a child. As the milk was on the stove boiling, the cocoa powder was mixed with the sugar in the cup, then slowly a little cold milk to make a paste, just waiting for the hot milk. Once the paste was made my Sister and myself used to pinch a spoonful of the wet mixture. Can't say I have had it dry though ;)
 
HaHa :D .. I wouldn't like it with the sugar though :)

Afraid I've had 2 squares of chocolate and I'm about to have a weeto bar :(

I don't hold out any hope at all for wi tomorrow. I'm never too sure about the accuracy of the mondays after I've worked the weekend wi although as it's after my sleep it really shouldn't make any difference. Anyhoo - I'm afraid it's going to be bad and I'll be in a dilemma about how to go forward again. I guess I should try another week of proper food as there's no meals out ... then again we're going away for a couple of days at the end of the month and i can't afford to put any more weight on! :( In fact i really need to lose some!

:( xx
 
Blooming nightmare having a weight issue. I have been reading a few things on google tonight and putting your head on a diet, just to clear the thoughts - cant see it working for me though.

I know what you mean about WI after a nightshift, thats why I sometimes tend to WI every 8 days and do it on my first dayshfit, I always weigh heavier after a nightshift, even after a few hours in bed.

Good luck Jan, and see how this week goes again with 'real' food.

Shall we save up and send ourselves to some eating disorder chalet holiday for a couple of weeks?.......:confused::D
 
OOooooo yeah let's!!! :D x
 
Love the pics Jan! That holiday sounds like it's going to be bliss!! You are one lucky lady!
 
I know exactly what that chalet would entail ....... Wine & plenty of it if we were all to go!! Lol xx
