Team 8 - GR8 M8s losing W8 - Official Thread :o))))

[BBlilsis]

I know its the same in Sheffield, we got a nice welcome home with lots of rain lol. Im not impressed with my so called suntan though, my arms and shoulders are burnt, my legs are white and back it semi tanned and my face looks like a panda cus i was wearing my sun glasses all the time lol

:giggle: boys oh boys, that is a lot of multi colours your describing there, but after my Irish summer, I'm only one colour, thats a sort of whitey blue

 

[Surfhunny]

:giggle: Don't forget the fact, that only another 2lb and you'll have lost THREE STONE, thats brilliant, so many goals soooooo soooooo close :happy096:

I know and I won't weigh in for another 3 weeks now. Ah well... that's what I get for going on holiday I guess. I'll have to have a sneaky jump on the scales on Friday before I go or I'll drive myself insane:silly:.

I wonder if I can get to 3st before I go away??? Wish me luck!!!

 

[sleekandclean]

Welcome back Chalack - sounds like you had a wonderful time with the family. Have you managed to jump on the scales and assess the damage yet or are were you well-behaved?!

Surfunny - excellent weight-loss. How did you lose the bit before you started on CD and how long did it take?

Lily - the stix are no longer pink for me either after yesterdays *episode* but strangely I'm also not hungry and had a good day so I seem to have come out mentally unscathed by it

Shadaca - good luck with the Doc and the interviews. We'll employ you

I'm hoping my CDC is stocked up on Strawberry tetras and the porridge as I'm going to change my routine to a porridge in the morning, a strawberry tetra for lunch and a caramel bar for dinner. (have been on 2 choc tetra's and a caramel bar almost from the start so need to be reinspired).

 

[BBlilsis]

Hey Girls, I never asked, but out of interest, what diet is everyone on...SS, SS+, 810 etc, or what ??

I'll get us started.

BBlilsis - SS now with a bit of SS+
Shadaca - SS with a bit of SS+ if occasion arises

 

[Shadaca]

I'm on SS+ but out of choice do three or four packs a day and only eat when the occasion calls for it (So far - I have stocked up on Tuna though for emergencys!)

I'm not sick - but I hurt my kidneys (or the muscles around them - not sure - but that general area!) on Saturday night, so I just want to get checked out, 2 days later and they still aren't happy

Anyway - more important stuff!

What on earth am I going to wear for this interview?!

 

[BBlilsis]

I'm on SS+ but out of choice do three or four packs a day and only eat when the occasion calls for it (So far - I have stocked up on Tuna though for emergencys!)

I think I'm gonna do that too, only do an SS+ meal if I have a craving, or I might be able to survive some work functions on a SS+ meal with sparkling water

I'm not sick - but I hurt my kidneys (or the muscles around them - not sure - but that general area!) on Saturday night, so I just want to get checked out, 2 days later and they still aren't happy

How in gods name did ya hurt the muscles around your kidney...have you been skatboarding down steps again :giggle:
Anyway - more important stuff!

What on earth am I going to wear for this interview?!

What job are you going for ? this will have a big importance for what to wear

 

[Shadaca]

No skateboarding down steps - It would be disasterous!!!

It was during the get out when we weree winching the set up. One of the flats tipped and was going to crush Andy - I saw it coming and grabbed a corner to hold it up off him, but I must have been at a funny angle, cos it hurts!

What job are you going for ? this will have a big importance for what to wear

For Assistant Stage Manager on Grease. (my pink lady jacket is in the wash!)

 

[BBlilsis]

No skateboarding down steps - It would be disasterous!!! lol....good to have it confirmed

OMG, its sounds like a scene out of a movie...go you Hero


For Assistant Stage Manager on Grease. (my pink lady jacket is in the wash!)

Wow, that sounds so exciting, is that in the centre of london...I haven't a notion what to tell you to wear though , smart casual should cut it I think.

I'm wishing you well with the interview regardless of what you decide to wear...knock em out

 

[Shadaca]

Lol - It's all glamerous and life on the edge in showbiz!

Yes - it's a West End jobbie. I'm thinking clean jeans, shirt and a vneck jumper.

Hi, i wasnt to bad although i did have 2 days where i just let myself go, i havent been on the scales yet, i didnt wanna get myself down if i gained any. I get weighed on sunday though so ill let ya know, i got straight back on ss yesterday so im hoping to have a good loss this week

 

[chalack]

Ohh the plus 6 pounds i put on my ticker isnt an exact amout, its just a guess, i figure i will have out a couple on while on holiday, but ive bumped it up so im not to dissapointed when it comes to my weigh in, ill change it on sunday when i get weighed.

 

[Surfhunny]

Surfunny - excellent weight-loss. How did you lose the bit before you started on CD and how long did it take?

I was on Slimming World for four years before I decided to take the plunge with Cambridge. I lost the first bit in 26 weeks, then messed about for the next 3 and a half years, putting on a bit, losing a bit, but mostly maintaining my weight at 15st 7lbs ish. But when my weight went back up to 16st I decided to take drastic action. I think SW is good for maintaining or if you've only got a couple of st to shift, but it takes too damn long if you've got lots to lose.

BBlilsis here's my addition-

BBlilsis - SS now with a bit of SS+
Shadaca - SS with a bit of SS+ if occasion arises
Surfhunny - SS all the way baby!!

Shadaca - how did your interview go? You line of work sounds so exciting!!

Chalack - hope you had a great holiday and haven't come back down to earth with too much of a bump.

looks like we ve all had a good day today, todays been the best so far since my restart i feel more like me and not some mad woman as hubby put it lol ive had loads of energy and been able to do loads and considering i work from home that a good thing.

Glad you had a good day yesterday DD, I think the good days make the bad ones seem more bearable somehow.

I've been fairly ok today, but had a lucky escape in Asda just now. I went to get a couple of new bra's for my hols :character00255: and some bottled water, and while I was there I thought to myself:
'now is the time if I want to eat something I can, I've got 3 weeks to make amends'...

So I walked to the fridge section cos I figured I'd just buy a pack of the cooked chicken pieces and eat them for my dinner instead of a shake. I stood there for absolutely ages looking at them, and I just couldn't do it. I HAVE CHANGED MY WICKED WAYS AT LAST:sign0151: I left the shop with the items I came for and I'll be having a toffee and walnut shake in an hour or so.

I'm so proud of myself, because before I started CD, when I was still doing SW, I'd have bought the chicken, and a chocolate bar and eaten them both in the car on the way home so no-one would know. I guess that's what they call progress!!

Hiya Chalack, just wondering are ya gonna be able to give us a weigh in before the Thursday deadline, cuz we had to put ya down as on holidays last week,, and going by my miserable week, we're gonna need every ounce loss we can get

 

[Shadaca]

Hiya Shadaca, just checkin in to see if you've an update on today, I'm crossing all my fingers and toes :giggle:

Thanks guys, but to no avail. Interview went really well, but I didn't get it.

Ah well - next time. There is a possibility that I will be going on tour for three weeks so atleast that will bring some money in.
