[Ela ine]

That is good news Woodland Girl Reckon I have danced off the cake today, but cutting back on syns to be sure.

Honey - well done on your 100%. I am getting excited about salad days coming too! It is like summer here today. It is so warm I can't believe it was snowing a fortnight ago

Kwise - well done m'dear

I have been 100% so far today, but the night is young!

I had a kinda NSV today. I did a double take at my own arm LOL I glanced at it on my desk and though, "Wooah whose arm is that?" It was mine. My skinny arm. It was all over in a split second, but I think it still counts as a NSV

Teeheehee :giggle: This sounds GREAT! I can't wait for NSV's like this one Especially because my arms are, without a dobut the absolute worst part of me!

I have just had the mushy pea curry, and my stomach is fast resembling John Hurt's tummy in the infamous Alien scene

Batten down the hatches

How do you make this? I love mushy peas! And am feeling a green day is due..

100% for me too! Although I have a painful coccyx (spelling?) so making me grumpy! Think it is the cycling. Boo.

Eee hope your coccyx gets better soon.. so you can shake your little tailfeathers
Have fun at the dull seminar, I hear poison is full of syns!

Hi Sunday weighers!
I'm just popping in to say hello - hope you're all doing well and having 100% days! :banana dancer: 100% for me so far, and managed to go for a meal out too! This was a mini victory for me - as I usually end up flexi synning (about 50 syns!)

Anyway - 100 red days since Wednesday and am feeling good, I've had a rubbish two weeks and a couple of awful gains, but back on track now and feeling motivated - long may this continue!

Hope everyone in here is doing well, looks like you're all having 100% days too! Whoop! Do you do red, green or EE?! Any fave meals? I am totally stealing the mush pea curry from blue (or should be say green :giggle smatie... going to make the chicken and coleslaw (from last months mag?!) this weekend! nomnomnom!

Happy Slimming! And Happy Friday!!!! x

 

[SarahJohnson]

Hey all just like to post that I really had a good chat with my OH on Wednesday night and really worked through some of my issues of why I have not been sticking to plan and basically yo yo ing!

I have come to the conclusion that I have become complacent with my loss and the improvement with the way I look and basically got lazy. Whilst I have done great in losing 51 pounds I need to really concentrate on the weight I still have to lose.

Have given myself a big kick up the butt and wrote some post it notes and stuck them about the house and at work to remind me why I am doing this and instructed my OH on ways to help keep me on track. I am fine whilst at work and eat very healthy meals and snack on fruit but get lazy at home on a night when I get tired.

I know I can lose the weight if I stick to it just need to battle with my brain and work through the cravings - keep myself busy and motivated.

I have had a fairly bad week and who knows what the scales may say on Sunday but I am feeling such a stronger person today and am part way through day 2 at 100%. My aim is to do a full 30 days 100%!! Whether I maintain or have a gain on Sunday I can do this and I will not give in.

I am getting my mojo back whether it wants me or not!!

Sorry for the long post guys just really needed to air this x x

How do you make this? I love mushy peas! And am feeling a green day is due..

Hiya I used this recipe http://www.minimins.com/slimming-world-recipes/80690-mushy-pea-curry.html although when I make it again I will be adding some chopped quorn pieces to give it a better texture

 

[elb4160]

First of all, really well done Sarah! I'm so pleased you're feeling good about things and are pushing forward Good luck for sunday, and whatever happens on the scales you know that it's not the end of the world and you can just push harder next week. I've got my fingers crossed for you!

Now! I'm not going to read back through what's been going on this week because it'll take far too long! But I hope everyone's had a good week, and if not I hope you're prepared for hard work next week!
Personally I've not had a bad week, but I've not really had a good one either. I've lost focus a bit on foods this week (probably due to having no routine at the moment and we didn't really have the right foods in either) So I've stocked the fridge up with fruits and veggies, I've got my head in the right place and I'm going to try a bit harder this week to control my eating rather than "5 syns a sausage you say? Ah well lets eat 4 of them and just not count any syns at all today" I've probably put on this week, but I'm willing to accept that considering how I've been eating.

Good luck as always guys, I for one am now officially fed up of being fat!
xXx

I can relate to this Sarah, I think the same happened to me when I got down to the four stone mark. I think there was a part of me that thought that I had 'made it' as I had reached the goal that I was focussing on, and for the first time in many years I was feeling good about myself. I wasnt consciously sabotaging myself, but tweaks and food treats started creeping in etc.

I got through it my lots of refocussing, it was tough but as soon as the weight starting dropping again I began to get my mojo back.

Sorry I havent read all the posts before, but just to say that I have been 100% today

I loooove milo, but in freezing cold milk!
All went fine today , I avoided the poison food which has syns and saved them for tonight when I had crisps and a choc maroon. Yum yum!

Thanks Elaine the Team Sexy spy To be honest, it is only my lower arms that are skinny. I am like Popeye in reverse

I am in bed and too lazy to forage for any more food so that means I have been 100% today. Hurrah!

No need to apologise. I like smartie can relate to this too. Although I am still pretty focused I have really needed to talk to myself sternly at times to keep on track. There doesn't seem the 'urgency' that I felt at the beginning to stick to it and yet I also still want to lose at least 2 stone. So the nice thing about this thread is that there are people at all stages of our journey and we can support each other through it.

Yum yum. I love Milo. How was it ?

LOL. That's great - well done for planning and making the choices for yourself rather than having them forced on you.

Ha ha ha ha. I too am a 'reverse Popeye'

I am afraid I let the side down a bit today with an off plan day. Rather too many biscuits (actually quite a lot) and I don't even know why. Am a bit disappointed with myself but not feeling down. I am back on track now and will have a think tomorrow about why it happened and what I can do to prevent it in the future. Sorry guys, but hopefully the 'team sexy' won't notice as they don't seem to be frequenting here (except Ela_ine and I'm sure she won't tell..........................)

See you all Sunday.

[PinkToaster]

Mmm, love Milo!
Somebody remind me to weigh in tomorrow! I always check this first thing before I do anything and I know I will forget!

 

[Woodland girl]

Never mind Gail, 100% today ! Only one day of our mini challenge left. I messed up by a sneaky scales peak, gained 1lb. Boo! I know what you will all say... Lol!! Lets hope it has gone tomorrow. Grrr

 

[silly sausage]

Hey Pink Toaster!

Remember to weigh in today!

 

[Honey39]

Gail, how do you multi-quote? You're very clever! I need to learn...

Sarah, I totally agree with your post; I had got a bit stuck in February, and I think it was maybe because I had lost a lot of weight and was taking a breather (subconsciously). But I've got my mojo back - I am nowhere near where I want to be, despite all the compliments and comments and everything. I feel so good now I'm back in the significantly losing camp!

We can do this together - yay us!!

 

[PinkToaster]

A pound off, although I know that's just my clothes! Still a nice start.

Anybody else got plans for mother's day? We're going out for a meal, I googled the place and they have no online menu! Might have to be a flexi syn day I think.

Well done Pinkie on your loss Have you enjoyed your week and had lots of tasty meals?

No plans for mother's day but it falls on my birthday this year so it will probably be a cakefest
