Kay's journey to health and happiness

Hi Kay sweetcorn and celery soup on the go but it's given me the idea it will be fab as a salad , before adding the water/ stock it smelt amazing, tweeking it a bit omit celery leaves just use stalks, add a red onion, some cherry tomatoes , cucumber,
I'm definitely going to give it a go ,
I almost didn't want to turn it into a soup lol,

How you managed with the water intake today I must admit the majority of mine has come from herbal teas , keeps you a bit warmer,
Has the bloating eased any Hun ?

Hey Von, nope my cramps are feeling a bit worse but I'm holding up. Only managed 1L today but that doesn't include herbal teas so prob 1.75 then, still not brill. I think the TOTM fairy will sabotage my efforts with the soup challenge, my weight will prob come off the week after .

Food looks fab,
Guess the bloating hasn't eased ,
Hope it's better tomorrow

I'm having some peppermint tea now to reduce the bloat. Guess what......

I found some of my old SW magazines, and last years aug/sept issue has got a whole load of salad recipes, they all look so yum . I will see which ones I can manage according to budget then might make some. The article was called `around the world in 8 salads' they did 8 different ones, one from each country from around the world, really yummy Von.

I do feel good , but wish I hadn't lost my way and regained,
It's weird but I don't think I look any different it's almost as it my eyes haven't caught up , it's hard to explain ,
Yea I'm hoping wen I go bk to work I can be as near to my lowest I've been again,
I was concerned about more weight piling on while I am off due to not being as mobile ,
But your right I keep thinking wow almost 100 lb gone , and it's keeping me focused that I can lose the rest ,

It's mind blowing what you've lost, you should be so proud. I'm 1lb away from 50lbs, hope to get my half century next week . Von did you lose the 100lbs all on SW or a combo of some other diets as well ?

Kay xx

 

[mariavon]

You'll get your half century I'm sure,
Yea I lost it all with SW , I got my 8 stone award , thinking to what I got to I was 2lb short of my 8.5 award,
But unfortunately the consultant that took the group had to give in and the replacement C didn't jel as well with the group,
So stupidly I thought I can do it on my own but within a few months the lbs were creeping back on, where I should of delt with it before it got as much of a challenge again I left it and couple of years or more here I still am ,
