Discover Nicola's 2012 'Get me to goal' diary !

[Nicola87]

Thanks guys,

Just having a disaster morning today...
Woke up to no water, which meant i couldnt get myself ready and the dogs had no water either! My mums water was off too so couldnt go there so had to go to a friends house to get ready then walk to the local shop to get some bottled water for the dogs and for me as Unitied Utilities said it may be off for the next 6 hours!!

They are demolishing an old folks home at the bottom of my street at the minute, so i suspect they've turned off their water supply as well as mine!!!!

Got to work at 9:45am, supposed to start at 8:45am!!

Just what i need on a sunny Tuesday morning.....

 

[Dinx]

oh dear!! hope your day improves!! as D-Ream once sang... *passes ear plugs* thingggggggssssss can only get betterrrrrrrrrrrr lalala....ok ill hush now

 

[Nicola87]

Thanks Dinx, apparently it still isnt back on... I hope they will be coming round tonight with water, i thought they had to do this if it had been off for more than 6 hours, but i may be wrong!.

Will update food diary later x

I make pizzas using the warburton square wraps, 2.5 points then I put some tomato puree on, and whatever toppings I want, and whack it in the oven. Normally have bns chips with it and its a really nice, as-low-points-as-you-want type meal

Yum yum yum that sounds delicious!!! Is that the biggish ones? Ooo I will have to have a look for them. I had 2 of the thins which split in half so 4 with tomatoe puree, ham, mushroom and a bit of cheese, was so nice and filling for very little points xx

 

[Dinx]

yea they are large square wraps, very filling...love em!!

 

[pinkbuttons]

Warby wraps are stunning...im makin pizzas alot even for family and freinds....but I have been counting them as 4 each not 2.5..... which one is it..i could be having two of the ******* lol!

 

[Dinx]

they are 2.5 points on discover, might be higher on propoints

Thanks everyone for your lovely comments

Dinx, lets try and both lose 2lb this week minimum we can do it if we are super good

Angel - thank you very much, good luck with coming back to discover, it really is a great plan and so far (touch wood) i have had a lot of good losses. There are sooo many inspirations on this site and it is a very good place to come if you find yourself reaching for some chocolate hehe!!

Susan, your the same as me im not going to any classes just been weighing in at home every friday. I find this site just like going to a slimming class only you get more support here!, and always positive!!

Warburtons thins are new, they are about the same size as a barmcake but same texture as a pitta bread?? They are only 1.5pts on discover which i think is excellent value for points!! I have only found them in Asda so far near the wraps etc xxx

Awww really...i took from you eating plan that u were at weight watchers....ur doing great having lost so much and not going to a class. My problem is i know what i need to do but its just getting my self motivated to do it....also would be great if someone would just make up my meal plans for me cos when i do start to be really good i think i dont eat enough...kinda like i feel if i eat something then its too much sorta thing..strange i know.

Gonna have a look for those warburtons thins - give them a try and see what they are like....bread is one of my big weaknesses.

Hope uve had a good day and ur day got better after waking up to no water and being late getting to work....tomorrows another day

xx

[Nicola87]

Well can honestly say I've lost my faith in WW this week...2lb on I'm so annoyed and really upset

I was well within my points everyday this week and have probably walked 6-8 miles throughout the week which I don't usually do!!!

There's no reason why I would put 2lb on but I have sooo gutted xxx

 

[Dinx]

oh no hmmm could it be totm due soon? could be water retention? dont give up m8, have another good week and you will surely see the loss. Have you measured yourself? you might have lost inches? maybe its cos you have built up lots of muscle from all that walking? ....new, day, new week...have a treat today then get back on it

 

[Nicola87]

Cant be totm coz i dont have them on the pill im on

dont know what it is xxx

 

[Dinx]

maybe thats part of the reason??? all i can say is you gotta put that behind ya and start a new week...the body is a weird ole thing hun...keep at it
