QUEEN SIZE TO PRINCESS

Oooh spanx, this sounds like such a dumb question...but what is red pesto made of? is it peppers? if so, i think i may like that! i love sacla green pesto, im a bit addicted but have steered clear of it as i thought it was very bad! but actually, your right, you only need a small amount per person so doesnt work out naughty at all! xx

Losc, some red pestos have peppers in, I think Sacla do a red pepper one. Most of them are red because of sun dried tomatoes. They do taste a bit different from green pesto and definitely have less oil - usually about 30g fat per 100g, as compared to green which is about 40g fat per 100g! Good job you only need a little bit!!!

Evening to everyone else! Really tired tonight, so just going to post and run... WI in the morning, so will come back on then and let you know how I got on! Fingers crossed - hoping for a good week this week, after a couple of really slow ones!
 
Good morning everyone :D

Tis me, errant Bev :eek: just in case you might have forgotten me :p lol

Sorry not been in much recently, i've been dead busy :eek: It's been all work, chores, cooking and bed :( lol

Anyway after my impromptu sojourn to warmer climbs and land of cheapo drinks, I gained 1lb on Tuesday WI :D It was my first ever gain, so I've spolt my perfect record, but I was very happy to only have gained so little :D It's gone away again now though. YAY me! lol I think I'm looking at a good loss on Tuesday (another benefit of having a week off - it jigs the old system up a bit......or so it seems :eek:)

A week off seems to have perked me right up actually. I was getting a bit bored planning meals and stuff, but a week of not planning, not cooking and just 'eating' has done me the world of good and I'm full of enthusiasm again :D I've also learned that making 'good' choices was second nature - (I didn't even have any ice cream - my passion) which was great as it shows a positive shift in my eating habits, the way I look at food, and I'm sure I can continue to lose all my blubber and maintain :D I didn't even drool over the sweet counter or the fried breakfast stuff :eek: Totally not the old me at all! :8855: Ya know, years ago, a wek off would have lead to a month off - 3 month off - gaining everything I'd lost. But not this time. I feel totally up to crack it this time :D:D:D I'm even thinking of starting a food diary on here :eek: lol

Sorry I'm banging on a bit and being all me, me, me :eek: I'm just feeling excited and positive for the future :D Can't wait for christmas this year - buying lovely clothes for the party season :D :8855:

So, how are you lovely losers getting along?

Hows the job going Patsy?

Anyone got an exciting events in the offing? (I haven't :(:8855:) Any mini targets to aim for? Had any NSV's?

Well done Laura on ditching a full, mahoosive 8 stone :eek: I'm so chuffed for you, you're doing absolutely brilliantly in all areas. Well done you! How's your course going? xxx

Glad you're enjoying the Gym Capricorn. Wish I had time to 'do' more, but as it is all I do is walk the dogs and go on my Wii :D Not moaning though, cos if I had the time I dare say I wouldn't do much more! :8855::8855: Lazy ***** at heart ya know :giggle:

I still can't get the hang of the Biggest Loser game though :eek: I've borrowed a game from a girl at work to try, it's called (summat like) Mario Olympics. It's fantastic, really good work out. Would recommend it ;) I'm gonna buy it when I give her hers back :D

I'll shurrup now :D I shall be back though, because I'm not going out tonight :eek: Yes you read that right! lol I'm determined to have a totally 100% week to get me back on a good loosing streak :D

Have a good weekend everyone.

Sorry I've missed loads again :(

Catch you's later xx
 
Morning all! Lovely to have you back Bev - well done for getting straight back on the horse! :D Really impressed to hear that you snubbed ice-cream on your hols - I'm hoping to be able to avoid beer when I go on mine at the end of October!

Well, I lost 1.5lbs this morning, so I'm pleased with that, although another half a pound would have taken me into the 14s and another pound would have got me to 2st lost - challenges for next week now! :D

Evening girls,

Really sorry I haven't been on, this work lark is really taking it out of me!

Gained 1.5 from holidays and lost 0.5 this week, just not eating as much as I should. Another couple of weeks and I'm sure the routine will kick in.

Well done to all the fab loosers... you are doing bloody fantastic!

Will do better, and pop in more often... promise!

Right... off to make tea for tomorrow night and bung it in the fridge. Spicy chicken in tomato sauce. Have a chilling evening everyone xxx
 
Really sorry I haven't been on, this work lark is really taking it out of me!

No need to apologise Patsy lass, working every day and running a house etc is flipping hard work :eek:

It's bound to be a shock to the system at first. You'll soon have it all weighed off chuck. Bet it's playing merry hell with your social activities though innit? :( lol

Have you got a slow cooker? Fab they are, spesh when you're out at work all day :)
