Right ladies, UNO problemo. Bought a soup from sainsburys, part of there be good range. On the back it says 1.5pp per half can. So that's 3 for full can. Or so I thought. Just calculated it on WW app & it's 5 for full can. Is that because veg is free on WW but it still has nutritional value that is in my calculations? Which wud u follow? Xxxxkayxxx

Not got book but just searched it on WW app & its 4pp for full can. So it's either 3,4 or 5. Shall I go middle for diddle? It is gorgeous I will deffo buy some more. It's really spicy & filling. Parsnip, bns & ginger. I was a bit unsure wi it avin ginger in cos I like ginger nut biscuits but if its in cookin sometimes it's a bit over powering. Xxxkayxxxx

 

[whoopsadolly]

Yep, go for 4 xx

 

[emmaholl]

Kay - I would go for 4pps as well.

Well just been to coop for some pop and groceries and you should have seen us! My hubby fancied some cake so we were stood in the cake aisle with his iPhone out pointing up all the cakes! It works though as the one he wanted was 21pps for half the cake - so he decided not to have it. We opted for some chocolate crispy bites instead which are only 1pp each!

I've cleaned the house from top to bottom and had a shower and been shopping and now I'm knackered and curled up on the couch watching Jurassic park! Good times.

Just had 2 sausages and mushrooms in a warby wrap! yum. (Late lunch)
Having beef stew for tea.

Hope everyone else is having a good saturday!

PS - my treat for this week is a mini tub of baileys Hagen Daas ice-cream - 6pps.

If any of you gets the chance to watch that link that a friend put on my FB page pls do so. It is a derren brown programme about 2 brothers, one of them more "luckier" than the other. There was another of his programmes too about rubbing a lucky dog. It was an interesting watch. Come on ladies xxxkayxxxx

Enjoy ur Icecream hun - do u eat ur weeklies? X

I did - T'was yummy . I don't really eat my weeklies unless I'm off out for a special night out- I have between 33 and 39pps a day. My limit is 39 a day but I don't always eat them.

Tiny little pot - 100ml. But it was just enough!
I never used to be like this and that's how I got to almost 22 stone, I just feel like things have clicked for me with this diet and I am so determined to do it - but I honestly think that it has been 50% my determination and 50% support from you lovely ladies. If I had been doing this without minimins I would have given up by now. I just love a challenge and being able to talk about it all the time keeps me going!

My weigh in tomorrow!!

That will be why u don't lose when u exercise chick... U really should eat all ur dailies... They are the minimum ur body needs and without them it will go into starvation mode and holds onto cals so u won't lose... Especially if u are exercising... I think most people find that when they eat their weeklies they lose more... That's what they are there for... If u don't eat them now then when ur losses do slow there is nothing to cut back on... Sorry for nagging/lecture but just trying to help xx

I know the lecture wasn't for me but I'm gettin worried I'm not gonna lose this week cos I've been zumbaing every day this week. Im worried cos u hear of people exercising & not losin weight but hopefully after u just explained this if I eat by dailies & some of my weeklies fingers crossed I'll be ok. I'm also drinking a bit more water than normal. Getting excited for weigh in on fri now. Hopin I can keep it up till then & the hard work pays off xxxxkayxxx

You're doing so well honey - You keep going kay!!

Emms xx

 

[CarlyLanky140]

Sorry ladies... I think we are all told the less u eat the better but that's not right... We have an allowance to do with height and weight and taller/heavier people need more to sustain them... So long as u eat all dailies and generally I would say all/most weeklies along with exercise u will lose some people may even need to odd AP too...

Re: exercise occasionally for the first week u might not lose but that's ur body getting used to it and the muscle/fat situation... And defo drinking plenty of water is good

Good luck all xx
