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

[laurenasha]

hey kirsty i was gonna buy the book in class this week!!! have u any idea how much it is!!!! how did u do on ur second week?

 

[kirstysa1]

i think the shop guide was £5.99, but it is well worth it, it means you can buy a lot more own branded foods in the supermarket. sorry, i got it wrong in that post, my first weigh in was last weds, 2nd one this weds. im hoping ill do as well this week as stuck to it really well like last week so fingers crossed!! the eat out guide is good as well to keep in ur handbag incase ur stuck when your eating out for lunch or tea that one was £4.50

 

[laurenasha]

thats a great loss!!! if u've been good im sure ull lose weight this week too!!! if u dont mind me askin have u much to lose!!!! i lost 7lb my first week and 4lb last week xxxx

 

[ErinW]

I did ok today, have stuck to my 33 dailies and used 36 of my weeklies (I used 46 last week & I'm gonna alter the amount of weeklies I have each week by 10points and see if my losses are better using any particular amount, then stick to that!), so nothing more for me tonight and WI is tomorrow morning, so fingers crossed!

[kirstysa1]

laurenasha, starting weight is 16st 5lb, i am only 5ft 2ins so my ideal weight should be 7st - 9st or there abouts but i have always been a bit on the larger side, so id be happy at 10 or 11 stone again, weight has just kept creeping up and up over the past 3 or so yrs and got worse when had my little girl (born dec 09) and tried various things to diet as was always too embarrased to go and be weighed at a class.....but really desperate to slim down for the sake of my little girl and to look better for my partner so decided to bite the bullet and go for w/w and see how i go. i dont really have a goal as such, but id like to say at least lose 2 stone and go from there. i am so pleased with myself for loss last wk (not blowing my own trumpet!!) and its really spurred me on to carry on. 2 of my friends have joined with me so that makes it a bit easier going to class as im quite a concieous person, and we can chat and compare tracking points etc which really helps xx

morning all, and hi to irishlady and kirstysa1 ( and anyone new i missed ), how is everyone today? do we have any weigh in's?, it's mine tomorrow morning so i have pre planned today, i've only used about 20 of my weeklies and will use the rest tomorrow after weigh in.. lol i always treat myself ( depending on the loss) .. went to tesco yesterday and got a couple of their healthy living meals they had on offer for £1 !!!! and they are all pro pointed so that helped alot ! i get paid this week so will be off to morrisons for my fruit and veg shopping.. i seem to go to all the supermarkets for the best deals LOL..

hope everyone has a good day xxx

 

[laurenasha]

hey all!!! Lou i think its erins WI today (good luck erin xxxx) is it the actual tesco healthy living meals
(do they really have the propoints on the box?) i went to supervalu yesterday and they had lovely bags of oranges and bunches of banana's for £1 each and their milk is 2 for £1.59 atm too!!!!

Kirsty i am 5" 7' and now 16st 2lb (was 16st 13lb when i started) my ideal weight is 9-11st but i would love to be 10st!!!! probably unrealistic so i would like to think i could get 2st off also and work from their!!!

I'm headin down the woods a lovely walk now shortly with michael(wish me luck lol) and then goin to the gym this evening after work!!! havent got to the gym from last week, so really need to push myself to keep at it!!! xxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Lou*]

oo good luck erin ! xxxx

yep they do have pro points on the box, some still show points (old) but i stay away from them they have brought out some new stuff all propointed and cheap as chips.

. i got a sausage and pasta meal and a mince potato and veg all for £1 each bargains for this weeks tea's

there is a frost over here this morning and i dont have the car today but i might wrap me and my little lad up and go for a walk into town..

good for you going to the gyn, i dont know how many gyms i have joined in the past and never stuck, i just get bored if i am on my own and never seem to have the time..although i am going to start swimming with my 2 year old so that's a start i suppose..

xxxxxx

 

[laurenasha]

oh i must go to tescos and check it out!!! the weight watchers meals were 3 for £5 when i was last in, but in iceland they are all £1 or the odd one is £1.50 which still isnt to bad!!! only problem is i have to drive 30minutes to get to my nearest iceland!!! poundland is good to i got the ww jam last time i was up and it's lovely!!!

i started ww and the gym with a friend!!! really helps me as i would hate to go myself!!! only problem is that she's started a new job, and between the two of us its gonna be hard to find a time we can both go!!! so might have to go myself sometimes!!!
come on erin let us know how u got on!!!!

My mums having a takeaway every week and she's still managing to lose weight!! I did go into my weeklies last week but made more than that up when I got activity points! Im so frustrated! I have measured myself and have lost 1/2" around my waist, but hips, bust, arms, thighs and calves are all the same. I've no idea what I'm doing wrong??!!

 

[laurenasha]

oh sherrie its bound to be disheartening but you've got to keep going!!!! be really good this week and dont use ANY of ur weeklys (they are only there as back up and your more likely to sts if u use them)

I have a busting headache today (sinus playing up) and would jus love to eat everything!!! had a wee walk with the wee man and goin to the gym tonight!!! xxxxxx

 

[Zoticus]

I know, I'm just really feeling sorry for myself! Nothing worse than putting your heart & soul into something like this and getting no results! I did dip into my weeklies but I did exercise and made up for it - so technically I've not touched my weeklies last week. I'm going to go through what I've been eating to see where I've been going wrong and calorie count them all. Because I might only be eating 32pp but what if it works out to be 2000 calories?!! Its the only thing I can think of?

 

[laurenasha]

try eating more fruit and bulk up your veg to try and stop yourself snacking as well!!!!!

i always save a few points for a wee treat at night but most times when it comes to it!!! i think do i really want it or is it jus cause i have the points there!!! most of the time i dont even bother having it!!!!!

 

[ErinW]

1lb loss for me, slow, but steady.. better than nothing! I'm going out for dinner tonight, so I'll probably be using some weeklies for that, but not too many and I might try not to use any other weeklies this week to see if it gives me a bigger loss next week.

 

[laurenasha]

thats great erin!! just think 1 more pound and u get your 3rd silver seven xxxx your also not that far from ur 10%!!! Really proud of you xxxxx
