Morning Pooks! Happy Wednesday!

Nah Rose it's all yours animal prints are so not me and Pooks would have trouble getting her tail into one of those .

I could always cut a hole in the bottom mind you couldnt deal with being a cougar men are too demanding now especially the younger ones I'll stick with my hubby he's like an old pair off slippers ....Well worn in and shaped to fit me ha ha

Back to the boring old diet stuff went swimming yesterday evening and will go again this evening after work am finding the diet side a little bit more difficult as its so cold I want hot food all the time salads and sandwiches just dont do it for me anymore and I'm really hungry all the time that may be due to the increase in exercise I know but it doesnt help when trying to keep the calories down

Have a great afternoon ladies

 

[tranquility]

This is the time of year that salads are replaced with soups Pooks, get the pot/slow cooker out and be creative. We crave comforting foods when it's cold and dark.

 

[Pookie 1999]

Yes Tranqs I have just got some soup in this week but it unfortunately doesnt fill me up so have started having jacket potatoes

 

[MinnieMel]

How about a stew? Casserole?

Well done on the fitness. You could track your calories consumed and fitness calories burned on My Fitness Pal. On Biggest Loser people who work out but consumed too few calories had slower losses - its a balance. You may be losing weight -- you are certainly owning and boosting your basal metabolic rate (BMR). Go you!!!

I love the slow cooker. Minimum effort comfort food. Delicious! Jacket spuds are fab. Do you like sweet potatoes Pooks? They are great as jackets (not the keep you warm kind) and way lower cals. X

 

[MinnieMel]

Yum -- sweet potatoes!!! I'm thinking of making a curry using them, chickpeas, nice lentils, etc.

Sounds delicious Mel. I absolutely love sweet potato but i know they are not to everyone's taste.

 

[Pookie 1999]

I have never tried sweet potatoes my daughter eats a lot of them as she is veggie

I lost 2lb this week this weight sure is much harder to get off than it is to put on I was expecting a better loss this week as I've been good and have upped the swimming big time again so am a little disappointed with that oh well at least its coming off not going on

 

[Squeezyweezy]

Don't be disappointed pooks, 2lbs is fantastic!! Well done. Remember slow and steady wins the race. Xx

 

[tranquility]

2lbs off is fab-u-lous Pooks, be proud of yourself you deserve it.

Major loss Mermaid! You're in the swim!

I highly recommend the sweet potatoes -- try one baked. Much more nutritious and lower GI than white potatoes.

Morning Pooks! How are you on this fine Saturday morning? Any lovely plans for the weekend? Xxx

 

[MinnieMel]

Hi Pooks -- You in the swim?!

 

[Pookie 1999]

Morning Pooks! How are you on this fine Saturday morning? Any lovely plans for the weekend? Xxx

No plans Squeezy littleone had me up at 5 am this morning and I never went to sleep until gone 2am so I think a nap may on the cards this afternoon

Have just been for a 2 1/2 hr walk round the lake this morning so am giving swimming a miss today but I did go last night because diet was crap yesterday after my poor reward for my maximum effort I went into sod it mode stupid I know but its done now so I have drawn a line under it

Have a good weekend Ladies

Where is everyone tonight all watching scd no doubt god that bloke everyone likes has got a lot to answer for ( at risk of a backlashing and a swift trip dragged off to specsavers by Rosie I just cant see whats so great about him myself the guy Mel posted that was nearly naked was far fitter )

 

[tranquility]

It's OK Pooks you can join me and Squeezy and help us get Rosie and Kals into Specsavers.

I believe Mel has cast her eyes over the naked youngster in person over the last few years, think he had some clothes on though lol. He also stares out at you from a poster in Subway windows, not sure that's a healthy option for one of our olympians to eat though.
