Well done on the mega loss :D

Are you feeling any better?

Heh - on the whole everyone else on the bus has already had that idea before me so I don't have much choice about sitting upstairs :rolleyes:

Didn't cross my picket line no, I've still kept it up i'fact. The wii and my exercise dvds are in the same room as my workstation though, but it's a sacrifice I've been prepared to make for the sake of protecting our pensions ;)



The riceballs turned out lovely :) Made them pretty much as per your instructions though I cooked the rice with a knorr herb stock pot as well as the turmeric and I put fresh oregano and marjoram in the marinara sauce along with dried rosemary (didn't have any fresh o'that). Gorgeous tasty things :D



Hmn I don't think that method would have worked to be honest, they were raising the bar way past plain old scum to be honest with you :( I know for a fact there were a few big blokes on the bus (they pinched the last seats downstairs when they got on the bus before me) but nobody came up to back the driver up while they were shouting abuse in his face - the proper bad stuff, think the worst C word in the world etc :sigh: Disgusting.



I wish it had been old ladies, I could have had a giggle about it then lol

I did fall off the wagon a little bit too the past few days, combination of things but mostly from feeling rough and can't be bothered trying to cook with the still-broken oven. Caught germs off the disease riddled childminded babes at my mums plus got left standing out in the cold over an hour waiting for a taxi on thursday night so a bit world weary heh - having a duvet day today with dvds (gremlins and da kine) then picking myself up tomorrow. Think I'll be thinking along the same lines as you and do my best each day but if things go awry I know I can get back onto things once the season is over with. I'm just not the type of person who can get through this time of year being 100% - it's nice to be able to go awandering around markets and such (went again yesterday for m'dad's present and one of my son's) and be able to have a bit of what I fancy and such - I had a gluwein and before heading home had supper in starbucks of a praline mocha and a brie and cranberry panini - synnometer overload!

Considering those treats yesterday plus a mcdonalds on thursday night after the taxi debacle and being late for parent's evening and picking my son up because of it (which left me in a right state :(:rolleyes:)... *breathes* pleased to report I've lost 5lb this week, gain recovered along with my 3.5st shiny :)

Think all I'm aiming for now is to be in the 21s and to stay there for the new year, then I can get cracking again - sensible and realistic hopefully :)

:wow: well done you 5lb :eek: :winner: you're amazing and well done for getting your shiny back.
Yep I am going to gain a biggie this week ...am I upset, angry phased, annoyed with myself, nope not a bit...I had the loveliest week (barring Kelly's dislocation on Thursday) went shopping (long hard trips with lots of walking) 4 times this week...can't believe I did 4 trips when I haven't managed 1 in 15 years ...I worked it out I clocked up over 20 hours walking this week :eek:
So from now until the new year I am going to be as good as I can be but I am not going to make myself miserable and I am not going to be fanatical and once it is all over I will be back to working my butt off to get at least another 5st off in this coming year again and then that will leave me about 2st to my target...perfick !!!
Hope you've had a lovely day sweetie and let's not stress, we know we can do this :bighug: xxxxxxxxxxxxx
 
5 pounds??!! OMG Lo, did you have something amputated? :) Well done!!

Hope you're getting on well xx
 
*waves* just popping in quickly, tired eyes with m'cold and need them useable for work in the morning, not the best way to go back after a week off :sigh:

Hmn not doing great - been eating pizza and stuff, hoping for a STS if I'm lucky :)

Dunno if it's the cold or if I've caught something off Kally but randomly pondering a month of diet chef or something similar to sort me out with a bit of strictness then go back on SW. But I know I did that before and it didn't work out so well - lost weight on it, got bored but didn't come back to SW... So I guess I've knocked back that idea all on my own without seeing what you all have to say about it :giggle:Must catch up on Kally's diary to see how she be getting on with JC...

Sorry I haven't been visiting diaries and I'm sure I'm missing a lot of stuff (I hope Kelly is feeling better Lily xxx). Will do a catch up soon once my head's a little clearer of the cold gunk :eek:

Hope you're all well and happy xxxxx

Hey sweetie, it's the cold and the run up to Christmas it's making us all a little crazy, but I for 1 am not going to worry if I gain I gain if I lose I lose, 4 weeks and we'll be in January and that's when I am going to hit the scales hard...weighed this morning ...*naughty naughty* and showed sts, hope it's the same tomorrow at official wi, or even half off would be incredible ...Kelly is in lots of pain, but managing it with the tablets that space her out, she's feeling very down and has said cos she can't do anything or exercise she's going to stop going to SW till after Christmas, I am trying to persuade her to go just to keep her momentum going another 2 weeks and the pain will be gone or hopefully she will be over the worst of it...I feel bad for her its so dibilitating and it's her right arm and of course she's right handed, she has appt at hospital Thursday so we'll see how it goes from there .
Hope you feel better soon lovely :bighug: xxxxxxxxxx

*waves back at Lo*
I'm doing okay I am enjoying it so far Lo

Sorry to hear
your struggling though I dunno
but I think Xmas has a certain part to play
in all this from the diaries I've been reading there
is an awful lot of struggling going on
I don't think the cold weather helps either
I bet come January your focus will return with gusto
Lo xx
 
I am convinced this cold weather isn't helping. I mean who wants to grab fruit when its freezing cold, who wants to drink cold water brrrrrr it makes me want comfort food so guess we need to cook healthy comfort foods :D

:bighug: Lo hope you are feeling better soon sweetie xxxxxxxx
 
hey hope your feeling better xx

I have decided to not weigh myself now till the thurs before crimbo to take of a bit of pressure, strangely since i made that decision i have managed to re focus myself for a whole 2 days :D

The weather does play a big part at the mo and the dark nights i believe. It makes us want to lay down fat to get througth the winter ( like hibernating Bears :8855:)

Don't beat your self up cos you are certainly not alone i promise ( i had a pizza episode too:sign0007:)
If we all stick together and keep checking in i am positive we can all get througth this and back on track xx

:bighug::bighug:
 
Morning Lo, yup I agree with everyone, the cold weather and run up to Christmas plus you're cold won't help, always remember my mother saying feed a cold and starve a fever and I have always (not conciously mind) done exactly that, I think it makes you feel hungrier, god knows why, anyway hurry up and get better and return to us and like Mandy said we have each other and if we stick together we'll make it through this, but we're not going to let you give up lady, you deserve this so hurry up I need my food porn...I'm wasting away here :giggle: xxxxxxxxxxx :bighug: xxxxxxxxx
 
Hey Lo, come back please ....just a little :wave_cry:will do :hug99: xxxxx

Hi Lo
How are you doing, thinking about you, missing you
Take care

Hiya everyone, sorry for the quietness :bighug::bighug:

It's purely down to being knackered and sore-eyed from my cold germs, seems to be getting worse rather than better today in particular :rolleyes: Guzzling the lemsips and hot ribena and such, can't do the hot and sour soup remedy as face/lips too sore and dried out from tissues/nose blowing etc :sigh:

Been mostly having tinned soups or ready meals for simplicity so not many food pics though I've one or two I need to load up on the 'puter when I get round to it. Just keeping an eye on the boring calories for the moment to not let things get out of hand. Definitely finding the 'feed a cold' saying is being adopted atm, and this cold mostly wants dairy milk in some form or another :rolleyes:

New freezer and cooker coming next week so hopefully I can get back in the SW cooking business then. Getting the extra freezer 'cause the one I've got now with the fridge/freezer combo is tiny - thinking I'll have a few weekend cook-offs making lots of SW freezer-friendly meals so I can have 'ready meals' available now that I'll have the space for them. Seems a sensible investment :)

Hoping my germs will be shrugged off by the weekend so I can catch up with everyone properly, will try and bob on to my own diary at least to say heya before then in case I'm worrying people with the quietness xxxxx
 
:bighug: hope you feel better soon lovely, hate these cold days and all the germs, got the snuffles myself but think that's more to do with the central heating than a cold, I am forever turning it on getting warm then can't breath with the heat so turn it off again and that's how my day goes lol.
Don't worry about SW food right now, get yourself better first...and I am the same what my mother used to say is dead right I am always much hungrier when I have a cold ...possibly cos I have to feed all those thousands of germ bodies and not just my own :giggle:
Sweet dreams sweetie and feel better real soon, freezer sounds a fab idea, it's so tedious cooking for just one, great to be able to bulk cook xxx :hug99: xxx
