Janet i actually soaked it in the yoghurt overnight and just ate it then in morning, got the tip of someone on here cant remember who. It actually tastes a lot nicer than it sounds and you dont need milk or water then

Sound interesting did you use a flavoured yogurt or just a plain one, I'll give it ago anything to save pp x

Had a great weekend, the wedding was a great laugh, i wore my bridesmaid dress from my sisters wedding couple of months ago which was really handy as had all the bits to go with it. the lie in was the best and we got brekkie to the room which was even better. I was driving and was giving a couple of people a lift so we left at about 12.30, got home to see my little man so missed him even after one day/night spent the day playing with him. Hubby went out with wedding crowd on sunday night but i wasnt in the form for two night in a row so i stayed in and went to bed early. Was lovely to have Monday off work too, went to my parents house for dinner, which i do every second sunday. Had weight in this morning and i lost 0.5lb which i am so happy about as didnt know how many points i had at the wedding.

Fab result with your weight loss, well done especially with your weekend x

Just used a fruit yoghurt Janet.

Yesterday went good used all my dailies and no weeklies. Didnt get to do any exercise so no ap earned.

Jamie took four steps by himself yesterday for the first time, we all started cheering for him and he got a fright and started crying poor thing. So will be walking soon id say.

Change of plan with the party at the weekend its on Sunday and they are going to an activity centre so decided Jamie was too young for it and would be scared of all the screaming children so decided to give it a miss and will just call over to birthday boy in the morning with his present. So all the better for my diet anyway. Think i am going to go to cinema on Saturday for a date night with hubby, cant wait love the cinema so want to save weeklies for some treats there may bring my own with me though as their prices are a rip off

Arrrh bless him they are so cute when they finally find their feet, my Amber was 22 months old and a right chatterbox but no walking, I said to her one day are you going to walk today? She just said ok Mummy got up and walked across the living room I could of fallen over, she's always had a mind of her own she refused to wear a nappy at just 2yrs both day and night saying they were for babies and she was dry from them, she is very strong minded. Good plan for the weekend those activity places can be so overwhelming for the little uns, what will you watch at the Cinema? I always make homemade popcorn it's really low in pp and much nicer, enjoy your date night and using your weeklies x

Well done on loss and even after a wedding! Sounds like you had a great time. Great news bout Jamie starting to work-he'll be flying it in no time.
Aw I miss the cinema-my friends go with their partners or husbands. Big thing I miss about being single. Enjoy it.

Yesterday was a bad day for me ate so much crap

Breakfast

Porridge (3pp) Milk (1pp)

Lunch (bad day at work was buying goodies for Halloween and i went a bit mad)

3 bags Quavers (7pp)
2 Purple Snack Bars (6pp)

Then got home from work Liam was late and i was starving as didnt eat my lunch as ate above so got bowl of veg soup (0pp). But then i couldnt stop eating ate so much sweets and more crisps and choc. Weighted what was left of the sweets so i know the amount i have eaten and i pointed it all (which is a big improvement as usually just forget about it)
So very ashamed to say i ate:
Worm Sweets 41g (3pp)
Fried Egg Sweets 57g (5pp)
Milka Leo bar (5pp)
Options mint (1pp)
4 bags quavers (10pp)

Oh my god seeing it all written down i cant believe myself.

Had Lamb Tagine (11pp) for dinner as i had it defrosted and i know i would be hungry later as hadnt eaten anything proper since breakfast

So that was my day but at least i pointed everything

33/33 dailies
19/49 weeklies
No ap

So not going to let that happen again just very stressful day and a cranky child when i got home and no hubby to help. i really have to lose weight this week, that god nothing major on for the weekend so can be good the next five days and i still have 30 weeklies left. When i pointed it all up it wasnt as bad as i though. Before i would just have wrote off the week and ate all around me until wi and probably wouldnt bother goin but i still have some weeklies left

Do you know what Dianne we all have days like this and the good thing is you haven't written off the week and you have pointed it and are still within your weeklies so chalk it down to one of those days and draw a line under it. Well. Done for pointing it and for being honest with yourself Hun x

Hey Dianne, I think you've made HUGE progress, firstly you counted it all, secondly you stopped. The Weeklies are there to be used and you chose to use yours on that. Has today been better for you? X

 

[BoS83]

I agree with others. You admitted it and pointed it! Onwards.... x

Back again, have been popping in a bit on the site but havent update in over a week put on 1lb last week knew i did bad. Myself and my three sisters have made a pack for next tuesday, we all need to lose weight and we can get a takeaway on Tuesday evening. If one of us puts on weight none of us can have the take away so hopefully it will get the motivation back in us.

So yesterdays menu was:

B
Special K and LF Milk (5pp)

L
Soda Bread and Jam (6pp)
2 x ww yoghurts (3pp)

Early Dinner
Wrap Pizza (8pp)

Late Dinner
Mash Potato with butter (5pp)
Stuffing (2pp)
Carrots (0pp)
chicken (3pp)
Gravy (1pp)

Total 33/33 dailies and 0 weeklies

Total weekies left 39

Sorry to hear about your Gain, fingers crossed that you (and your sisters) smash it on Tuesday! What takeaway will you have if you complete your challenge? I'm liking your Dinner in two halves, was there a reason for it? X

Probaly get Chinese not that many options when you live in the middle of nowhere

I usually have a small dinner when i get in from work as i do be so hungry so eat with my son at 5:30. Hubby doesnt get home until 7 and Jamies bed time is 7:30/7:45 so no point having dinner until after he is in bed so the two of us have dinner at about 8:30 in which case previoulsy i would have binged as i would be so hungry so decided to have a mini dinner for myself earlier to stop myself picking so much and have the plus that i get to eat with the two boys in my life
