ProPoints Lots to lose: Trying to refind the wagon!!!!

Wow veg patch :) sounds like hard work but bet ur smoothies are yummy!!

Thanks all for responses ;)

Laurenasha - u do love ur chinese :)

What is the lowest number of PP anyone can be on?!

Hope everyone is well xxx
 
Ha ha bindi, i never thought of that!! I kept going out to try and get them out, then they flew at me and i went running back to the kitchen screaming my head off!! Thank goodness my dad came to the rescue lol the poor things were going break their necks the way they were flying at the window!! I always leave my conser door open and thats never happened before!! Think it must have been the parents and a few babys to have been so many at once!! My 2 cats thought all their Christmas's had come at once, could just see them licking their lips lol!!!

My investment this week is going to be a new set of kitchen scales!! Mine broke and i haven't been weighing anything!!! Would love a pair of the ww ones but they are soooo expensive!!!!
 
Goal for me for this week is to stay within my 29pp each day and use up as little of my 49pp as possible, obviously tonight I will use some of them but hope to have at least 16pp left from today and maybe use up half my weeklies (drink beer at 4pp per bottle and I could down quite a few bottle hic hic). Then tomorrow am meeting friends for lunch so will have lie on and it will be brunch for me so should be ok there. Am not gonna use any of my activity points earned, havent used any (intentionally) since starting so gonna leave it that way. Think if I started to use them it would jsut tempt me to eat more. Really need to get rid of the remaining easter eggs in the house, too easy to keep dipping into them when open argghhhhhhhhhh
 
Lanky chinese is my favourite take out (i work in a chip shop so am sick at looking at the stuff lol) it's my treat and chow mein is one of the lowest take outs!!! Whats everyone else fav take-out???

The lowest points you can drop to is 29pp!! Think it goes up again though when you are maintaining at gold!! Mine started at 38pp and have dropped to 33pp so far!!! what number of points is everyone else on???
 
ha ha bindi, mine haven't been tempting me too much!! was thinking of some last night but just went to bed instead!!! I have mine on top of a wardrobe so they are not that easily seen!! Although i must start giving the boys some more to get rid of them too lol xxxx
 
Oh just read that properly lol, this morning I had strawberry mullalight with 2 strawberries, an apple, a kiwi, 3 grapes and a banana
 
Sounds lovely alona!!! I had 4 cups of coffee 2pp (really need to cut out the caffine) a banana, and 2 small oranges!!! So only 2pp for me so far today!! Gonna have soup in an hour for lunch and then a toastie and soup before work!!!

Might make another bowl of the tomatoe and basil soup tomor as i had none left to freeze!! I took some into work yesterday and 2 of the girls tried it and want the recipe!!! (so very chuffed with my cooking)

Does anyone have any home made meal suggestions that are low in pp!! Want to make something tomorrow but not sure what to make!!!! xxxx
 
I'm on 29pp n my fav takeout is Chinese by far.
You should do a veg plot, or even a fruit plot which is even easier to look after.
Strawberries need no looking after once their established and they spread so you get more every yr free :) x
 
what type of pot do you need for strawberrys!! My mum used to have a big barrel with holes cut in it when we were little!!

Was looking on esource for a nice meal idea for tomorrow!! And my mouth is watering looking at all the hearty home made food!! Haven't decided what i'm gonna try first yet though!! Steak and onion pie looks good :)
 
Everytime iv put them in a pot they haven't done very well, but if you just dig a border or a small patch n plant some in there they'l do great and spread to fill it.
Make sure you put some sawdust or eggshells around underneath them so that the slugs can't eat the strawberries, then get a net tunnel ( sometimes in pound shop but always in wilkinsons for a couple of pound) n cover it to stop the birds.
Roman or élan r good varieties cuz they keep flowering for alot longer than most others and are completely hardy :) mine are 3 yrs old now n survived all the snow we had hope that helps
 
Hi all, sorry i've not been about for a while been back and forth to the docs and sorting my head out

defo not on the dark side... just yet LOL.. had a good week so far and really really trying to not let life blips determine what i eat !!.. i have also found a class closer to home.. it's on an evening though but i'll be starting that next week better go and face the music !

you have all done so brilliantly so proud of u girls !! xxxxx
 
Glad your still with us Lou!! Just think that gives you another week to work at it and have a loss (with it being an evening class) i change to a tuesday morning and you change lol!!! is your WI still on a tuesday Lou??? think i know what you mean about sorting your head out!!! I've had loads of ups and down in my life so far!! But atm i am ok!! Still have a few bad days though!! Which you probably hear me rambling about on here lol xxxx

Alona i think i get what you mean!! But knowing me will take another 10years till i get round to it lol!! xxxx

Just had another bowl of my tomatoe and basil soup!!! It is sooo yummy i am gonna make another pot of it tomorrow!!! The rest has all been ate lol xxxx
 
ha cool your changing too, yes mine is still on a tuesday just the evening makes it harder to get a decent loss but easier to get there !.

I know hun i need to concentrate on not being mental at the moment lol but also dont want to overeat.. i've been diagnosed with depression !! which is weird for me as i take everything in my stride normally but everything is feeling like a battle at the mo plus i had PND so my doc thinks thats when it started off.. anyway enough of my woh's i'm sure i'll be fine once the happy pills kick in LOL.. better not effect my weight though !!!!

glad to see we are all still on the wagon with only a few blips so far..

those soups sound lovely think i'll give the roasted veg one a go at some point ! although i always seem to make too much soup then get bored of it !

I was on 44 and currently 43 but if I lose 1/2lb will be 42... Just seems to go down so quick... We shall see :)

Bagel Defo more filling than muffin but have had a bad head all morning...:(

My fave varies - chippy, Indian or pizza :) lol - all high but hey I'm doin ok... Do love a nandos too...

My chocolate addiction appears to be rearing it's ugly head :( x
 
Lou i also had PND with both my boys!! But i've suffered from depression since i was an early teen!! i've been off meds for 2 years though!! I know how hard it is!! If you ever need to talk you can talk to me xxxx Dieting AND Depression does not mix!! When i'm having a bad day you couldn't look at me or i would bite your head off or run out of the room crying lol!!! xxxxx oh and Lou i got my esource working!!! xxxx

Lanky i didn't find the drops too bad because you only ever lose 1pp at a time!! so you had 1 week at the least to get used to it before losing anymore!! I honestly haven't noticed the drop of 5!!! xxx

Decided i am gonna make another pot of tomatoe and basil soup tomorrow!! Along with steak and onion pie 8pp, mashed swede 0pp and mashed potatoe 7pp!! Yummy oh how i love esource!!!!!!!!!! xxxxx
 
Leb ,
I'm due alot of money at some stage as I am taking the company that manufacture the hot water bottle that burst and gave me 2nd degree burns on my legs so I'm taking a couple if thousand from that for a new wardrobe so I'm keeping my spree in mind everytime I get an urge to eat or drink :) I can't wait !!!!
 
Lou I suffer really bad with depression too, although iv been off medication for nearly a yr ( I'd been on different meds for 16 yrs) since I met my partner iv been determined to sort my head out with his support bless him!
My 13 yr old daughter suffers really bad to which is harder for me to deal with as I feel so guilty that we went through the same trauma's x
 
Alona i suffered badly as a teen too!! i was self-harming and suicidal by the time i was 15!! i even had to be hospitalised for a year!! I came out of it in time and now i'm pretty much ok!!! I hate to think now that i am a parent myself what i put my mum and dad and brothers threw!! xxxx
 
No worries JoJo- that sounds like a plan! I may get saving for my spree!!
