Tina's diary of hopefull optimism!

Mfp says 100g dry weight wholemeal spaghetti is about 320-360 cals depending on type - was about to ask if it was a diet brand or something! Wholeweat is good for you though and you won't be hugely over as you didn't eat it all.

 

[Legomom]

Oooh that bolognese sounds tasty! Where was the seasoned mince from?

Asda its ok but it's frozen mince. Always goes a bit mushy doesn't it? But as a fast Bolognese base it was awesome. Never buying a jar again lol

I think all my MFP freinds were rushing to asda to buy my wonder spag haha. I ADORE wholewheat pasta. I just wish I could get some wholewheat linguini. Mmmmmm!!!!! In fact I'm gonna have it again today.

On track today. Buffett last night was a real struggle but I got through it. Haven't weighed as the scales are upsetting me the last few weeks so I'm only going on em when I'm feeling strong!!

Off to aquafit in a bit which I'm looking forwards too. Wanna do a good few laps afterwards too but my arms and back are really sore an tired already from the EA active sports dammit!!! It's a seriously evil game lol

Yeah that's true, frozen is never as good! Might get a bag to keep in the freezer for when I need something quick though.

I love wholewheat pasta too, personally, I can't eat white pasta cos it doesn't taste of anything!

Well done with the buffet. Have thought you thought about hiding the scales and weighing in once every 2 weeks or once a month or something for a bit? Personally I couldn't wait that long though.

Hope you enjoy aquafit!

 

[Bostik]

Lol i was gonna weigh once a month but now im so desperate and close to getting into the 160s that i keep checking

 

[Squeezyweezy]

It's so difficult to not jump on the blooming scales every other day let alone every 2 weeks!
Well done for yesterday, sounds like you did great. Might look out for the mince next time I'm in asda.

Where've you disappeared to Tina? Hope everything's ok, you're quiet which isn't like you!

I'm here trying to get caught up.

Had a very bad two days sun/mon. Think I was just over tired and fed up. But Monday was really out of control. I really can't keep doing that to myself!!! I know one day off won't hurt it's the massive binging till I feel really ill that's an issue.

Anyway the gain from that has dropped off but left me with a bit of tummy trouble. Need to pop a dulcolax shall we say?? Looking for a loss this week so i need to behave myself all weekend. Don't deserve one but I'm fed up of losing a half pound a week!!! Lol.

The aquafits paying off. I have some upper body strength developing

 

[Bostik]

Go your upper body!!

 

[Legomom]

Oh my god my homemade lasagne was literally amazing!!! Sooooooooooooo delicious my slice may have been a bit bigger than planned lol.

 

[Bostik]

Mmm yum

 

[Caz]

What set you off binging do you think? I'm a bit like that with my tummy at the moment! I'm sure you'll manage a loss this week, good luck

 

[Squeezyweezy]

Flipping love homemade lasagne!!!

Not sure really. I seem to have a good week then a slip up then a good week etc etc and overall it's really slowing down the losses? I'm trying out just eating at 1400 as I've been working out a lot and I probably need the extra cals.

Also I'm thinking I need to totally avoid processed carbs and sugars? Coz every time I go mental it's after I've had a wee sneak munch of a biscuit or cake. Just seems to burst the damn and I gorge till I'm feeling poorly. Really need to sort it out!!!

 

[Caz]

It's really hard to cut them out at first but it probably is for the best. I think it's the whole sugar high then a crash and it just makes you try to fix the crash but it's too easy to go overboard. I know that it's easier, in the long run, for me to just not have any than me be like oh I'll have a little bit. Little bit leads to big bit!

 

[Legomom]

Half pound again this week. I'm seriously losing my mojo for this malarkey. FFS. Half a pound. I can pee more than that!!!!

 

[NumNums]

Awww babe, atleast it's still shifting, and that's considered the healthiest way possible. xx

 

[Caz]

Half a lb is still a loss though so it's a step in the right direction! I know how frustrating it is though

 

[Squeezyweezy]

I completley get your frustration Tina, but don't give up. Half a pound is still a loss and it is going down instead of up! Slowly, slowly catchy monkey or some other crap like that!! lol xx

 

[Caz]

Hope you're doing ok Tina
