Rach's Weight Loss Diary

[blackwidow]

thanks everyone and yes Hayley I have visited - it's such a great place.. when my mum finished the apartments they were absolutely gorgeous.. but one of them she's having to redo now after a tenant trashed the place - rewired the electrics and pulled fitting off etc.. made a right mess of the place

and yeah Gabs i love it that i can change a necklace and add a scarf or something and it looks totally new again


well, mum started something - i dug out all my old comics and have popped them on ebay.. I have about 100 japanese manga comics from my phase a few years back and so even if i get £2 each for them thats still £200 for me

B - 60g shreddies (3) 1/2pt skimmed milk (1)
L - sainsburys basics tomato soup (2.5) crusty bread bun (3)

good luck with selling your stuff - its really easy when you get the hang of it, just time consuming listing everything!

if you can't upload pics to ebay, try uploading them to photobucket or somewhere like that and just linking to them in your product description?

anyway good morning everyone

i am currently sat, just had my breakfast and Becca and me are playing on House of the Dead: Overkill for Wii. I am a big chicken and lasted about 30 seconds before closing my eyes and dying.. but Becca's dead good so i'm just watching her at the mo

Starting to worry about my WI tomorrow.. i don't feel any lighter, and i'm concerned that my two days off track before i got back on board are going to really affect it.. I cant even remember HOW bad they were..

Hey Rach I know what you mean about the House of the Dead game, by OH has it and I can only watch it if I look between my fingers!!

Your menu always sounds lovely mmm mmmm, Im really thinking of getting My Fitness Coach for the Wii.. have Wii Fit which drives me nuts all the stopping and starting... honestly is My Fitness Coach as good as everyone says it is?

 

[blackwidow]

i really enjoy it yeah its getting better now - it does stop after each section but your main section is like 10 minutes, then there'll be 5 mins stretches, 5 weights etc and it asks you how hard you found it so it can callibrate a new workout to push you for maximum performance next time. Its the same price as a workout dvd, but you have a multitude of choice rather than just one workout, so i think its definitely worth it

i've done 8 workouts with it so far, and although i usually only do 15 minutes 5 days a week, its better than doing nothing also i can fit it in before work / after work etc.. so its great

i've had to get a paper form sent out, but because its bank holiday, its not here yet.. issue is still going online.. now 4 days on! 24 hours my *rse! LOL!


well hellooooooooo everyone

just had my tea, was lovely - also had a dairylea dunker (2.5) and an alpen light bar (1) so a few more points to add to my list, but still within my given 23. WI still playing on my mind.. i should be losing weight but i just don't feel like I am.. infact I am eating so much I feel like I should be gaining.. though i suppose most of my intake is fruit and veg so its good for me at least.. anyway, just need to forget about it until the morning then i can see whats happening

really feeling quite tired.. think i'm going to pull an "old lady" and head to bed

hope everyone has enjoyed their bank holiday xxx

 

[charly.71]

Mornin rach i luv those alpen bars but they give me bad wind! i had 2 boxes so gave them to my sister ha ha .
Do you weigh in today? if so lots of luck xx

 

[blackwidow]

thanks Charly.. infact, i have spent all night wondering why i have been "windy" so maybe thats why!

well, i've put ON 2lbs?

i suppose seen as i've only had 5 days on track its to be expected..

ah well.. soldiering on!

B - 30g shreddies (1.5) 1/4pt sk. milk (0.5) 130g grapes (1.5)
L - salmon fillet (5) broccoli and cauliflower (0)
T - 5 bean chilli (5) 80g bulgar wheat (1.5)
S - apple (0.5) chinese pear (0.5)

total: 16 points

going to try hard to earn at least 1AP every day for the next few weeks, and also to drink plenty of water.

 

[Twiggy]

Hi Rachel

Well I don't think you earned those 2lbs so it must be water or something!!! I bet you get a great loss next week

Keep your spirits up (not necessarily the alcohol kind ) and keep tracking

Twigs

[ugg]

Hey Racheal,
It'll be off with more next week I'm sure. Heres to a 100% week and a fab loss.
Have a good day hun xx
